Ch.2
The car pulled to a stop in front of a large office building. The two got out and Miss Kusangi held the door open for me.
'Thank you Miss Kusangi.'
She nodded. 'Call me Major. Everyone does.'
'Okay.'
'Follow me.'
She led the way through the doors. The first thing I saw was a large desk with two androids behind it. She walked up to them. 'This is our newest member. As such you are to train her.' She left.
'Stand here.' I moved behind the desk. 'Watch it while we go take care of something.'
I nodded and they walked off. I'll admit I was scared. Shouldn't I know where everything's at first? A man walked in in a grey buisness suite. He walked over. 'Tell Aramki the prime minister is here.'
I nod. This can't be too hard. I look at the phone. There were no labels. I guess it can be hard. I decided to pretend I knew what I was doing and picked up the phone. I pressed number 9 and held it to my ear. I heard it ring.
'Ishikawa.' A man's voice said.
'So sorry.' I hung up.
I pushed number 2. 'Tachikoma.' It sounded like a child.
'Sorry.' I was about to hang up.
'Are you the new android?'
'Yes...'
'Yipee!! You must have lots of stories.'
'Not really...'
'Will you tell us a story?'
'Um...'
'Do you hear that comrades! Were going to hear a story!!'
'Maybe...'
'You can start.'
I hung up. One minute later the phone rang. I answered.
'That was rude.' The chipper voice was back. 'You can't just hang up on people.'
The prime minister was not looking happy. 'What's taking so long?'
'I'm talking to the Tachikoma.'
'Can't you just hang up.'
'I tried.'
He sighed. 'Can you at least tell me where the bathroom is?'
I gulped. 'Um,no...'
He narrowed his eyes. 'No.'
'I don't know were it is.'
'Really?'
'Yes.'
'What good are you then. I would think you wouldn't last very long here.'
Your'e telling me.
