From the moment I met Dr. Stewart, he gave me the very best. He stopped at nothing to make sure I had everything I wanted. Just when I thought he could do no more, he did more. Workmen had been doing all kinds of things in our complex, including building on an addition to the main building. I asked Dr. Stewart what was going on, but he wouldn’t tell me what they were up to. He said it was a surprise and soon sent me off to band practice full of questions about what was going on.

When I came home, after practice, I was totally worn out. Dr. Stewart took full advantage of my tiredness by taking me on a tour of a new building that was finished while I was gone. WOW! What I found in that building was nothing short of spectacular. There was a wonderfully comfortable den complete with lots of seating and a refrigerator stocked with Coke and snacks. What made it even better was that the seating was powered, so I could sit or lay down and gain energy at the same time. But the fun didn’t stop there.

In a large lab room, there was a power dome. That lab was designed to focus power directly on my body, giving me all the energy my body could handle. The more he talked, the more I wanted it really bad. We moved on to the next.

The next lab may have looked a little daunting to humans, but not to me. It was the power bands lab. It was designed for me to lay down on the table, slide my wrists into special bands and have power pumped throughout my body for a nice wonderful massage. It sounded so good at that point. I was worn out. Again, we moved on.

The final stop on the tour was an indoor pool. But it wasn’t just any indoor pool. It was powered just like the labs and the den. I could swim in the wonderful luxury of power jumping off my body. An android’s dream. But after the tour, I had one question: Why?

Dr. Stewart explained to me that he added the extra building, connected to the main building by hallways on each floor, as my private getaway. He said that my being an android was my culture as much as a person from another country had their culture. The problem was, I shared the complex with humans and had no place to truly explore the android part of myself. That was all about to change.

When Dr. Stewart left my new energy center, I laid down on the couch and slid into wonderful peaceful deactivation as power gently invaded my body.
