Cage (Dark World book 1)
““Fine.”
“Bored?”
“No.”
“Here, maybe this will help.”
Cyra jumped when a woman appeared in the front row of seats directly across the walkway from her in the space shuttle. I will never get used to that, damned creepy things. The SFC, simulated female companion, was drab, neither fat nor thin; she wore red cargo pants and a red loose-fitting t-shirt which matched Cyra’s outfit. The companion’s skin was blue toned, bald, no eyebrows or lashes, with pink eyes and thin to virtually no lips, and void of ears. Created to not appear threatening, it was weird, in a disturbing way. The interactive holograms were used on lone flights such as these for adults, or to entertain children with games, or as school tutors.
I’m surprised Earth children don’t have constant nightmares.
Artificial life forms were commonplace on Earth. Perhaps too common, replacing pets and in some instances children for married childless couples who wished to ‘play’ family for a day without the res...ponsibility.MoreLess
