Niko came over with Alexei and Chase. They said they wanted to take me to the park for a picnic. I raised my eyebrow at that, but went along with it. We had a great time between the 4 of us. We ate mini sandwiches and there was enough lemonade packed to drown a horse. We snacked and looked around. Alexei and Chase were able to bond with me over our shared humanity. Niko sought to repress it under routine and their cyborg programming, but they still had moments when they could feel creative sparks or "inefficient emotions". They had even reached the point where they began to feel sexual urges. I got to help them out with some tips and tricks. Niko allowed it for today. When the day was ending, they had to go back to their clan. Niko sent them ahead. Once they were gone, he straddled me. "I could use some help too." he said with a smug grin. I smirked back. "What is it? I might be able to help." He asked me for some of the blueprints. I sighed and said "Was this the only reason you brought the kids here!? To emotionally manipulate me!? That's low." He just looked at me.
Sucking my teeth, I gave him the blueprints for the cockpit. "You want more, I want to see my kids more." I told him as I pushed him off of me. He smirked. "What makes you think we did more than this?" I chuckled. "You would not be out here doing this if you did not need a giant boost in your project. I bet your clan was assigned to get a part together." Niko said "We are required to provide 2 out of the 7. Heat Clan has the burden of providing 3. We have already fallen behind them as they have 3 parts." I was then told those were the general plans, the chassis and the power core. "What else are you going to give?" Niko looked to the side. "That remains to be seen. Keith has declared he will be providing the pilot. That is one piece of the project. We each now have one blueprint left to present." he told me. "I see." was I could say to that. I had already helped him out a big deal. I was going to need to hold firm here. He got up and left me without another word. Niko already had what he wanted from me. His cat like nature was pretty cute. When I got back, there was a major problem. I had to go see.
Keith and his youngest child had been detained. Apparently, they were caught snooping around in the AEP lab for clues on the blueprints for the XX-frame. He was a well known PEP unit. She was a PEA unit. Neither of them were members of the clan or confederacy. It was clear they were not where they were supposed to be. I groaned and looked at Keith and his daughter. "C'mon. Even Niko had the decency to emotionally manipulate me with my own hybrid children. You can't just steal it." I said. He scowled. "Of course he did. I should have known this. You always come to see me if you're not working in here." he snapped. I sighed. "I already gave Niko the cockpit. I did not think you would do this." "I do not care what you were expecting of me." he spat. "There are only 2 blueprints left. How is the whole making an AEP pilot going!?" I asked. He smirked. "It is going optimally. I sent 2 members to the Foundry to prepare them. I will finally be able to orgasm when I make the unit with Sarah." he told me. I shook my head. "Orgasms are powerful stuff. You'll enjoy it. Go before we have to punish you."
