One Month Later:
Tinker couldn’t believe how stupid she had been having unprotected sex with her ex-boyfriend. She looks at the home pregnancy test she just got finish taking. She couldn’t believe she had gotten pregnant. A smile appears on her face as she wonders what her child will look like.

She walks over to the end table where her cellphone was and picks it up. She calls her OB/GYN and makes an appointment to go in. She wanted a second opinion to confirm what the test just told her. Her uncle will be over the moon to learn she is pregnant.

Tinker starts getting ready for work as she thinks about becoming a mother. She wonders should she tell her ex-boyfriend that he managed to impregnate her. It wasn’t like it was his fault. She should have bought some rubbery duckies for him to wear and she should have taken her birth control pills.

Once she was ready for work, she leaves her apartment and walks down to her office. She was thankful she had a place inside the Castle to live. Once she arrives at her office and logs onto her computer, she discovers that she has over fifty emails waiting on her.

“God, we need to cut down on all these emails.” Tinker knew it was necessary, but sometimes she would like to come in and have nothing waiting on her.

She goes through the work orders first and assigns them to her team members. Afterward, she reads the emails sent to all employees about upcoming events and upgrades that will be going on. The last were personal emails she received from her people and friends. One, in particular, catches her attention immediately.

The email had been sent from a person she didn’t know, but they knew her. The person was hoping that she had a job opening because they needed the work. They were willing to separate trash and such.

Tinker looks at the email and wonder where the person knew her from. She has only worked at a few places, before coming to the Castle. She looks at the resume that had been sent with the email.

A lot of the jobs on the resume seemed to be low levels job a temp worker would do. There were numerous skills listed and so many jobs. Tinker leans back in her chair and stares at the email and resume. The person had a lot of skills, but nothing that would work in her department, but it bothers her that this person knew her.

She leans forward and sends a response to the person. She’ll meet with them and see who they are and how they knew her. She sends the email and waits to see if they will respond.

Gate’s Box Company, Sandy Hook, KY.:
“Jenny, move that stack of box forms over to unit 3.” Keith watches as Jenny struggles to move the pallet they were stacked on.

Jenny finally manages to move the pallet. It was taking everything she had, but she manages to move it. Once it was at unit 3, Jenny starts loading the hopper. She manages to get it done before lunch was called.

Jenny walks out to her motorcycle and open the saddlebag and pull her lunch bag out. She finds a nice spot to sit down and eat. As she is eating, her cellphone beeps let her know she just received an email. She looks at it and notices it was from Tinker. She wanted to know what day she could come in for an interview.

A smile appears on her face. She couldn’t believe Tinker got back to her. She was hoping she would. She hated the current job she had and didn’t like the bullying that went on here. She sends Tinker a date and time she would like to show up.

Camelot Networking:
Morgana was busy looking over the information she received about getting Thomas a fully working penis and testicles. According to what she had, there were three options available to him. The first was constructing a penis from Thomas’s flesh, but it wouldn’t be a real penis or work like a real one. The second one was getting an organ transplant and having that attached. However, they would have to sterilize the testicles, to not produce semen. Because it was an ethical problem. So, that left the third option, which was still experimental.

Blake Medical could print the organ up from Thomas’s DNA and it would be fully functional. She could help them with her knowledge of nanites and could make it, so it works with Thomas’s body. She couldn’t wait to tell him tonight when he came over for dinner.

She watches as an email appears. It was from Anika at Eruption Communication. She opens it and starts reading it. The email said it was time to start Protocol 52.

“What the hell is Protocol 52?” Morgana looked puzzled.

She searches for the file she has Jack Bounty. He gave her the file when they became partners. She scrolls through the list and comes to protocol 52.

“Holy Shit! He wants me to go to war against the Hunter’s and this Human Superior League.”

Morgana has already done some research on the organizations.

“They must have done something really bad to piss Mr. Bounty off for him to go to war.” Morgana sends an email to the rest of her team. They are going to bring everything they have to bear against these organizations.

Gloria and Aisha:
“So, how is the new job?” Gloria was face timing with Aisha.

“It’s a challenge. I have to go and rewrite the original software the Disability Center uses. It won’t work with Windows 10 and they want to keep it.” Aisha had been hired to rewrite the software for the State government agency.

“Well, if you need any help, you know I’m willing to help out.” Gloria missed Aisha a lot. She never thought she would.

“Have you found out anything else about that bionic company you were telling me about last time?” Aisha and Gloria had talked about finding a bionic leg for her.

“Yes, and unfortunately they are under investigation for a bunch of illegal things. The owner was responsible for the illegal transformation of a subject. He also was involved in the cyber replacement of some criminals. He recently escapes custody from the FBI along with several others.”

“Well, damn. That sucks. Is anyone else working on bionic limbs?”

“Yes, Blake Medical, Wolf Cybernetics, Cybertronics, and a few others. So, the leading companies are Wolf Cybernetics, Blake Medical, and Cybertronics.”

“How much would the process cost?” Aisha was worried about the cost.

“That’s something that could be worked out. Blake Medical and Wolf Cybernetics have a program, that allows the participants to get the surgery and monitor them. They won’t have to pay anything for the bionic limb or the surgery either.”

“That sounds encouraging. How do I apply for the program?” Aisha was willing to try the program.

“Let me get in touch with the rep I know over there and have them contact you.” Gloria hopes Aisha can get the approval for the program.

“Thanks. I have to go Gloria, so here’s a kiss goodbye for you.” Aisha kisses her camera.

A smile appears on Gloria’s face at seeing Aisha’s kissing her camera.
