Reboot
Wall-E was asleep at his workbench.
It had been at three days since he had deactivated Eve.
He had made all the necessary upgrades to her torso and nervous system. Her A.I. had been upgraded and the Robot Hybrid program installed into her unit functionality.
After finishing his work on her, he had to go to work for himself for at least an 8 hour period. When he returned her placed Eve on her charger and reactivated her protocols.
He then hopped on his workbench and went into his sleep mode, the bench recharging his batteries as he slept.
At daybreak, Eve finally awoke from her four day slumber. She booted up and she looked around the truck.
"Huh...what happened?" Eve wondered.
As she looked around she say that Wall-E was asleep on his workbench, then she suddenly recalled what had happened.
Wall-E had turned her off, and had been performing some updates. As she searched her RAM, she realized that she had new applications, and hardware installed within her mainframe.
She then opened her containment compartment, and with her hands she felt around.
It was slightly smaller, but a new brace had been added at the base of the compartment, and as she touched it, she felt somewhat more sensitive. She had a tingling sensation throughout her body as she touched the brace.
"Oh my...Wall-E...what is this?" Eve gasped.
She then ran a self diagnostic, and found that her torso had been completely reworked to accommodate this brace, she even had a new containment beam, with some special upgrades.
She looked over at Wall-E who was still asleep, suddenly she had the urge to repay him for what he had done.
She floated over to his side, and prepped her gun, setting it to its lowest setting.
"WALL-E!" Eve yelled.
Wall-E opened his optics and came face to face with Eve's outstretched gun.
"Whoa!" Wall-e gasped.
"Wall-E!" Eve growled.
"Eveah!" Wall-e cried holding up his hands.
Eve moved forward and Wall-e fell off the table onto the floor.
"Wall-E...don't move..." Eve commanded putting her gun straight at him.
"Eveah!" Wall-e put his hands against his face to shield himself from the possible retribution.
"Don't ever upgrade me...activate my sleep mode, or put a chaff colar on me...ever!" Eve growled.
"Eeah...evah..." Wall-E pleaded.
"Got it?" Eve pointed her gun straight at his optics.
"Yes...Eveah..."Wall-E agreed.
Eve disengaged her gun, and offered her hand to Wall-E.
Wall-E took hold and he was hoisted up back onto the workbench.
"Now...what did you do?" Eve demanded.
"I merely upgraded you...I hope you'd approve..." Wall-E explained.
"Well you could've asked...now what are these things for?" Eve asked opening her containment compartment and pointing to the brace and new beam compartment.
"They're compatible with your torso...they'll can give you more sensitivity and the ability to lock objects inside your compartment." Wall-E explained.
"What?" Eve asked.
"Remember when you lost the plant?" Wall-E reminded her.
"What...ohhh yeah." Eve remembered.
When they arrived on the Axiom a few seasons ago, Auto had arranged it so that the plants would be disposed of if an EVE unit had found one. The brace would've prevented any access to the compartment without the EVE unit knowing who was accessing its storage compartment.
The brace was like a second lock on objects that could be stored within the units compartment.
"What about the beam?" Eve asked as she closed her compartment
"The beam has extra lock on ability. The beam stays active until the unit voluntarily lets go of the object. It prevents tampering with the cargo, it can also act as a fail safe. No one will be able to take advantage of you like before." Wall-E explained.
"Wall-E...that was nice of you...but I don't appreciate you deactivating me..." Eve responded.
"You're right and I'm sorry...but I'm not finished explaining yet." Wall-E answered.
Wall-E then reached behind his workbench and pulled out something long. It was a metal black rod that seemingly matched Wall-E's color scheme.
Eve blinked.
"What is that?" She asked.
"The other part of this upgrade..." Wall-E replied.
Wall-E then motioned with his hands for her to come closer beside him.
"Wall-E..." Eve began.
"Don't worry...it won't shut you off...just come here..." Wall-E cooed in his cute voice.
Hearing Wall-E talk like that made her circuits tingle.
Cautiously she floated over beside Wall-E on the workbench.
"Can you open up for me?" Wall-E asked.
"Wall-E..." Eve stammered.
"Eveah...please?" Wall-E pleaded.
"Alright, but no funny business." Eve replied.
Wall-E giggled.
Eve then opened her compartment, exposing her newly installed brace.
Wall-E hooked up his metal rod to a power connector on the workbench and turned it on.
Electric started flowing from the rod's tip.
"What is that for?" Eve asked.
"Hold still and you'll see...tell me if you feel anything." Wall-E explained.
Eve held still and Wall-E lightly tapped her brace. The electricity connected with her brace, and sent a mild shock through Eve's system.
"Ohhh..." Eve giggled as she felt the electric run through her.
Wall-E then moved the rod from one side of the brace to the other, with the electricity flowing through her with every connection made.
"Ohhh...whoa...ohhh...ahhh..." Eve moaned as she felt the rod connect with her brace.
"How does that feel?" Wall-E asked as he took away the rod.
"Oh my...wow...that felt...that felt...different." Eve described.
"Did you like it?" Wall-E asked.
"Yes...can you do it again?" Eve asked.
She wanted to feel the mild shocks again, just to be sure she wasn't malfunctioning.
Wall-E then pressed the rod again against her brace, with some more pressure.
"Ohhhh...ahhhh...oooahhhah..." Eve responded.
Electricity flowed through her nervous system and into her inner torso.
"Ohhh Wall-E...ohhh my..." Eve groaned as Wall-E jiggled the Rod against her brace.
Seeing that Eve was turned on to the new sensations she was recieveing Wall-E decided it was time to end the session.
He then turned off the rod and took it out of her compartment.
"Wall-E...wait that felt...it felt...great." Eve complained.
"You really liked it didn't you?" Wall-E said.
"Yeah...that was unlike anything I've ever felt." Eve replied.
"Well...that's only a tease...the real course will happen once I attach this rod to my drive, and we'll be set." Wall-E explained.
"You need an upgrade as well?" Eve asked.
"Mating takes two. But right now we both need to get back to work." Wall-E pointed out.
Eve looked at him with a puzzled look.
"Mating? Is that what this is about?" Eve asked.
"I'll explain later, right now I've got to get re-charged." Wall-E said as he hopped off the workbench and proceeded to open the truck door.
As the sunlight came through, Eve realized that she needed to get going as well.
"Yeah I need to get back to work myself...Wall-E..." Eve replied.
"Yes?" Wall-E asked.
"Would it be alright if I returned the favor? Could I make sure your upgraded as well, and then you can explain what this mating thing is all about." Eve exclaimed.
"Sure..." Wall-E agreed.
And with that they each went on their morning routines.
So what did you think? Did Wall-E get what he deserved? What will he say to Eve when she upgrades him? Stay tuned to find out.
