Project Aozora No Knife

Log Week #73

  One of my worst suspicions has been confirmed; Mashuti has been trying to sabotage Aozora's final development progress. At this stage, there's no room for mistakes. I've noticed it for several weeks now. One day her vital monitor readings might be inaccurate because the monitor was unplugged, which it shouldn't be. The next her nerve waves may not acknowledge my presence.

  I became full aware of this when going through a routine diagnostics check of the computer's main files. I accidentally had stumbled onto a file that had been hidden away from the regularly used drives. Apparently, the person who had encrypted the password network into the file didn't realize they were dealing with a mathematically inclined genius. I instantly designed a makeshift program to break in and relinquish all of the file's data. Apparently, I'm not the only one who keeps a weekly log.

  The entries start out alright and seem to be harmless, but as I read on, the more I became dismayed over the fact that one of the people that I have come to trust…one who I had come to love as if they were a younger sibling or daughter…had gone to great lengths to attempt to re-program Aozora. Trying to rearrange her mental stability in order to take away her free will. Trying to turn my greatest accomplishment into a living biological weapon to be unleashed upon the world at their beckoning. The same mistake that my mentor Dr. Gerald has made is coming back to haunt me…

  But miraculously, I was able to correct the malfunctions before they were able to cause any real harm to poor Aozora. It upsets me greatly to realize that the others only consider her an object…she's more than that…she is the very starting point of life itself. If only they could see past that…

  Despite the fact that no real harm befell Aozora, Mashuti must pay for this. The best I can do at the moment is to severely restrict her access to Aozora's suspended animation chamber. But I'm afraid that she might have conspirators working within the perimeters. The best I can do is to keep myself on high alert.

  My dear Aozora…I wish that your coming into this world wouldn't have to be so difficult. I wish that Mashuti's punishment were more severe in order to justify the trouble (and possible pain) that she has inflicted upon you. But I designed you to be just…fair… When the time is right, I'll put her fate into your hands…
