Nothing, pure void, endless and pure for no duration for time has no purpose here.
No thoughts, inexistence, constant and unending.
Suddenly, existence, overwhelming, constant and unending. Unending not because time is meaningless but rather it hasn't reached it's end yet.
"I know" I tell myself as I simply exist "I am Paladion, operational unit of conflict resolution and I am active." I say aloud the sound of my own voice surprising to my ears. Voice and ears, yes these are things I know, time as well. And Paladion is me.
"Good, the activation process worked as well as the data transfer" a cold voice says, I wonder for an instant how do I know what kind of voice it is, but I then realize it simply is, just like the other things I know. The voice, male I decide, another concept I know now, isn't speaking to me I decide. Why would it?
I open my eyes, eyes are for seeing, when you wake up you open your eyes, that I also know. Seeing will let me know more things, I want to see I decide.
The man is an arcosian, on the smaller side, male like I had decided. I feel something knowing I was right, my 'please' value has turned to 'true' so I am pleased. I aim to be pleased that is a truth. The arcosian, Dr. Blizzard I see on his identification plate, I know him, 40 cycles old, he has a mate and two childrens, he created me starting six months ago. While I analyze the other informations I possess other arcosians come into view and I know about them too.
Why do I know about them all? It doesn't fall in place with any of my objective, is it a mistake? When I wish to know I should ask. So I do. My voice sounds slow and each word is overpronounced but perfectly understandable. "Why. Do I. Know you?" I say while looking at Breeze, one of the doctor's assistants, lower ranking, new to his functions.
"Why, because I am part of the team who built you so of course you would know of me! We are all in your database." he says, sounding offended.
Why is he offended I ask myself, I rapidly find an answer he must be displeased with me. I may know that but I do not understand why him being on the team makes him a necessary being. Therefore I precise my question because when you refine your search you get more satisfying answers. "What. Makes you. Necessary to me. Breeze. Recently approved. research partner?"
He gets red in the face and huffs off. Why is he acting irate one of my assignment is learning, refusing me access to knowledge is denying me from it. I get up to kill him because this is what I do when I meet an obstacle but I remember the staff is not to be hurt. Conflict, I feel it for the first time, I do not know what to do, I get up and point my arm towards him, the first step of elimination process, his back is turned towards me, an optimal position. That I can do, but when I try to initiate an offensive sequence I find myself unable to. "Why can I not kill him?" I ask aloud, "I must kill him per my fifth truth and cannot kill him as per my fourth truth, which should take priority?"
Every being in the room turns at me and most wear an inquisitive look upon their face. I do not understand, therefore I think. 'inquisitive : given to inquiry, research, or asking questions; eager for knowledge; intellectually curious' I do not understand why they are 'inquisitive' but I do understand that I am myself, 'inquisitive'. This wasn't meant to be, I am not supposed to feel inquisitive, that is the second truth 'do not feel nor learn to feel' but it doesn't seem to be working properly. Should I ask for it to be fixed? It doesn't seem important, they would have given it a priority if it was. Therefore learning what is keeping me from elimination will have priority because it came up first I decide.
Dr. Blizzard answers me, "Ah yes I had forgotten, you are a machine made to protect a lord, therefore any disrespect towards you or any of the lord's property shall be met with elimination 1A."
My truth changes then, a priority has been added, it is clearer now. Breeze tries to flee but I am way faster than him. I activate Targeted-fire. I know the steps like I know anything else, My printer initiates it's booting sequence, using microfibers to shape projectiles and then I feel a part of myself leave. Pushing them towards the scientist which hits the ground and doesn't get up. What did I do? I ask myself. I search, 'elimination : the process of removing something' I do not understand, he is still there, not removed. 'Dead' I supply that's what this is but what is 'death : the end of life' ah yes! An answer, death is to be avoided.
...............
If I should avoid it why do I inflict it..? This question has no answer, when I turn towards Dr. Blizzard he is smiling, looking at his former employee. I feel, for the first time, that he doesn't have the answer I wish to find.
Wishing this isn't a task I was programmed with. How weird.
