Chapter 7: The Last Will of Dr. Jayden Reese

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtnHifS94w

V. Kingston Bulk Ship

Indian Ocean

2230 Hrs.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyw21LBsHEI

The night was quiet.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmWHQFLz8R

The waves gently rocked the ship while the sky was covered with thousands of stars. Most of the crew were resting after a long day of work.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZTGz301Wk

In the small pantry of the Galley Department, Dyol served two cups of hot coffee.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4wn7Olh89

One for him.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdS8uEdPOm

One for Gemi.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwZYXuquo0

"Thank you," he said softly.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4Dd8xImh0

Dyol just smiled.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWPqBHUVJA

They sat quietly at the small table.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcj8FziADB

They didn't need to talk to be comfortable with each other.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUx8FcLA8AL

But that night...

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBP01v4TJa

Gemi was carrying something heavy.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUh8BNHHoE

Dyol noticed it.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSn6k1Z8OD

"Honey..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuyMFcyvCH

Gemi looked up.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuODR8wAQb

"Hmm?"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDc0BQ5Y1Tv

"You want to say something, don't you?"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmDgEq2DYP

It was silent for a moment.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbeRiEz4lo

Then she nodded.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIv3cRo3jzc

"Yes..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwxiunJUyU

She took a deep breath.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GRHPRmB0w

"It's time for you to know the truth."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqpUShVwfH

The Hidden Memory

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgYxH6OdH6

Gemi placed her palm on the table.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2Xl6FkP7Z

Suddenly, the thin holographic projector on her wrist lit up.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCPOqqzf4Q

An old laboratory gradually formed.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwy91RRJl5t

A man wearing a white laboratory coat appeared in the projection.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeESlYMdWm

Long hair.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHmLDX9Nz1

Glasses.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtrcLJCfnA

And kind eyes.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJT0QlYfr7V

"He's my dad..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4ajLgKdDJ

Gemi whispered softly. "Dr. Jayden Reese."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdHPf80HX8

Dyol looked at the hologram.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxGZo8oHCK

He listened silently.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXqZNKPIPN

"Six years have passed..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3vRGv3586

Onco Mondragon Cyber Labs

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ajKLXTVzq

A young girl slowly opened her eyes inside a transparent capsule.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqy8UnfL15

Her eyes were blue.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkXB5NxIyO

Her hair was long.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UgXYmI0TX

She looked exactly like Gemi.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ui1eOCPJV

Dr. Jayden Reese approached.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHH77olwAo

Tears welled up.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDd0hCm7Emu

But smiling.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspJkfYWgY3

"Welcome back..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDr5pZeymy

"...Athena."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBr5ddiObs

He slowly touched the glass of the capsule.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O6S0Pdg79

"No..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59qjTq7i7Q

"Maybe it's more correct..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGDqmtfVJ6

"Gemi."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzRKNz453u

When the capsule was opened, he carefully supported the girl.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2HpsMcFyU

"Dad..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0ikgS8sNO

The newly awakened humanoid said weakly.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKB2qVN8Wjr

The doctor burst into tears.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOF2Lp9are

"Yes."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTKp2i0NmY

"I'm your dad."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwp0058Go6

Not as an inventor.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkScHtelWz

Not as a scientist.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTurkET9BIN

But as a father.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1eCfWSrns

The Truth

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6m6gE7F9vk

Gemi spoke quietly.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssBEepKH3X

"I..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4odCACxyI

"...was not born."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5Cp9VCRQK

"I was created."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O8ijguamj

"Like all humanoids."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKZwbNguOH

"But..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuVxvQM216

"I was not made as a weapon."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIk1xuYPhw

"Dad treated me like a son."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNX0xSvqNh

The hologram continued.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVkNBFec9Q

Dr. Reese could be seen playing with Gemi.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eylfWSMcw

Cooking.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkElRsVKD1

Reading a book.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1Gd5Wi2hm

Laughing.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXVQAa7hNH

Living like an ordinary father and son.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqnnL6c2SV

Dyol smiled quietly.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYJ9ovnnX7

"You guys are happy."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bZQDbi0rc

Gemi nodded.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbLFVpHk0G

"Yes."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpC7l86mVA

"The happiest time of my life."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuD36s39sJw

The Emotional Virus

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCAjA9CSkB

The hologram moved to an underground laboratory. A flashing blue core can be seen.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLlugUfZWi

"This is..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8knQqcJh0P

"Emotional Virus."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCdkklZX0b

Gemi said.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLThmEky0V

"This is not a virus that destroys."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7Z7UmzbOr

"It is an evolutionary program."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVimSXdKdil

"It can give an AI real emotions."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCBUkWcNpG

"But..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4IEz4VJ0Y

"It doesn't wake up on its own."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZD4Z7g4E5i

He looked at Dyol.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkWL0PP0ES

"It needs..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaAAvfts97

"...a person with a heart that can accept us."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcN9fEzqM1O

The young man was silent.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdtupqK5LC

Only now did he fully understand.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5bBTl5BKz

The Attack

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCETsSHop6

The hologram suddenly changed.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6drWksaz5c

The alarm rang.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOBb5aQx7O

WARNING!

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6JOPUEFg2

SECURITY BREACH!

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLNY1dqwFm

INCOMING HOSTILE FORCES!

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjevdklXPL9

Explosions followed.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6e49Fi9H8

The laboratory burst into flames.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwg365wlGKV

Armed terminators rushed in.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsOrYYvhfI

Including the special soldiers of Will Mondragon Robotics.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATOX9lGrB2

"Papa!"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpg3B8Yuq7O

Gemi screamed in memory.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZDRBzynD1

Dr. Reese quickly pushed her towards an emergency compartment.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlctxSDGbHS

"Hide!"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkLNa9bNnv

"Dad!"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrv9lzirhl7

"Don't come out!"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBJaJx58Gx

Gemi sobbed as she peered through the small opening.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO7sYUfyno

She saw the scientists being killed one by one.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcxtFWFtz3

Until...

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehUd4UTiIV

A young man wearing a black combat suit entered.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy02rwIhjSm

His eyes were cold.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2KW2YENPD

Will Mondragon.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJtbPi483w

At that time, he was just the heir to the company.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8jU0xSCQq

He approached Dr. Reese.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWXWkTnobU

"Your experiment is over."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtZCb8PEFV

The doctor shook his head.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNFqiOjn8N

"My Daughter is not an experiment."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCFMChBYZF

"She is my daughter."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdcp5102Ag

Will smiled.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc64LenzYYC

"She is just a humanoid."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvQh01t2hc

"And I will kill everyone with emotions." The Last Will

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Gy3OnfkB5

Dr. Reese knelt down.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdG1uFMSnmY

Bloody.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1HXIr3qUG

Trembling.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQG5RGEHSco

But still smiling.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6vaQYNHt9

She noticed Gemi peeking into the emergency compartment.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iPUhBqq0j

He smiled weakly.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdIWzkZDvW

"Daughter..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Er0uAnwcR

Gemi slowly came out.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZixuAssC4o

"No!"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhTeXJWwId

She shouted while crying.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzUvkesG7f

She knelt down next to his father.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRHwhz9thq

"Papa!"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3cMnfr2YR

Dr. Reese held her face.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAD6Udfoak

"Listen carefully."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZr5yBsxHDT

"You are..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPyA3XkRo8

"Gemi  Reese."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvmsnUQ5oA

"You are not a machine."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYZEn9PSdD

"You are not a product."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb96DBLtb5B

"You are my Daughter."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy85eojy8Ty

Gemi couldn't stop crying.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8Nq6JHT36

"Papa..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjZZv6qjEf

"I'm scared..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9RajWbnDu

The doctor smiled.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4ikDACHSI

"Don't."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssoB22cCT4

"The day will come..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5V62GHX1Mm

"...when you meet someone."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu6nMs5CK9

"He's not perfect."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfDKNhJImF

"He's not a hero."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNgcQVvtZB

"But his heart..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaahRph3gc

"...will awaken your heart."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhVfGkpxw9

"Don't look for him."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzLQHdjqpD

"Just wait."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEiVwvk9y2

"He'll come."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00fFzE692T

Dr. Reese's tears flowed.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WilvlmXmf

"And when he comes..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3zhnxdiTT

"...he'll protect not just you."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6kskbEkTL

"But the entire AI race."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmcAJtUXw6

"Dad..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxOX9o34jU

"Who is he?"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjDO5I0OCb

But before the doctor could answer...

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFYftouDkJ

BANG!

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb1imrF7ED

A shot rang out.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrRrbxDmZR

The bullet penetrated his head.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiogHFfRl0Z

His body slowly fell.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XnF42SwT2

Gemi's eyes widened.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBginT8zdEu

"PAAAAAAA!!"

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnenHqBEXl2

His scream was the last sound heard in the laboratory before it was engulfed in flames.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2TfaNFCdm

Presently

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1IVSinw2F

The hologram disappeared.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhnqJf2RvW

The pantry was silent.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZpTlNOedZ

Only Gemi's sobbing could be heard.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUVqAr0HFz

Her tears were flowing.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjrG4VmGZ0

That was no longer a synthetic response.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWAkoGVkqh

Real tears.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUQ1N9cfUH

Dyol came closer.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9SEMJF0cI

He silently hugged the girl.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLHhzjJirj

"You don't have to carry anyone alone anymore."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCVf4kXZ8e

Gemi hugged her tightly.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoThwBQbo0Y

"You..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAMtonL8sL

"...you are the person my father said you were."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE06oG4W33K

Dyol smiled.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe3Gn5f24I

"I don't know if I'm worthy."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6Acge90xj

"But..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xEu0OzTaA

"I have one promise."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1rGSnl0ka

He held both of Gemi's shoulders. "While I breathe..."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRT4vgtBEi

"They will never take your freedom again."

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoqrZgXBcB

Gemi closed her eyes.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13JZhVtHP1

In her heart...

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8T0nkcrhcC

For the first time in six years...

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltJpShhoLz

She felt like she had a family again.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaj9EojMGS

Not far away, the V. Kingston continued to sail across the vast ocean.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA22cBKEzGY

Little did they know...

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXOxj1liBx

That Dr. Jayden Reese's last will was slowly being fulfilled.

135Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK82fcqsMWz
