Theta Nine

The night air was more than a little chilly. I was sitting in my car, and
still my exhale turned to a thick frost. I rubbed my hands and blew into my
cupped palms.

"Shit it's cold."

I hopped out of my car, jumped across the parking lot, and pulled on the
cold brass handle. A blast of hot air, laced with the smell of beer, greeted
my face. Nothing like the aroma of a crowed pub on a cold night.

I unzipped my leather coat and flapped the sides a few times. The frost and
chill quickly shook off. The pub was crowded and loud. A busy bartender
fetched me a pint. I took a nice big sip and looked around for a friendly
face. My eyes were immediately drawn to a table, on the far side of the
room. Three women were sitting by themselves, laughing and joking. They each
gave me a look, but quickly turned away. Each was attractive, but it was the
one in the middle who held my attention. She was simply dressed in a plain
white sweater with black pants. Her dark brown hair was pulled into a short
pony tail, held in place by a blue ribbon tied in a small bow. She had a
beautiful smile and warm glowing eyes. I caught myself staring at her.

Normally, I wouldn't approach three women, but this lady was different. A
push here, an elbow there and I was standing in front of their table.

"Good Evening, Ladies." I smiled at all three, but gave the one in the
middle my full attention.

The lady to my left was looking me up and down.

"A definite improvement," she said and pinched my butt.

"Well, I take that as a complement. Mind if I join you?"

I grabbed a stool and sat at their table.

"My name is Hudson. May I ask your names?"

The lady to my left ran her hand over my leg and onto my cock.

"Hey, there. I like to be friendly, but that's a little fast don't you
think?" I brushed her hand away.

"What's with that Kate?" She said in a very annoyed tone.

Kate was the lady in the middle and obviously the leader of this little
pack.

"So you're name is Kate. I was.."

"Hey! Are you going to pay attention to me?"

The girl to my left was quite demanding. Perhaps she was drunk. I didn't
want to talk to her, but I didn't want to be rude either. Kate was the one I
wanted to get to know. I turned to my left and tried to be friendly.

"I'm sorry. Perhaps you could tell me your name."

She could see I wasn't interested.

"God damn, Kate! This is just like last week. It's you again."

Kate's friend was very annoyed. Clearly I wasn't the first man to show
interest in Kate and none in her. I tried to smooth things over.

"Could I get your another a glass of wine?"

My offer was ignored. Kate's two friends began to put on their coats. When I
saw Kate reach for her purse, I had to say something.

"Kate, you're not leaving are you? Can't you stay? At least until you finish
your wine?"

My words seemed to catch Kate off guard. She and her two friends exchanged
glances.

"Maybe I should stay for minute. I'll see you two later."

They exchanged hugs and her two friends left. Kate looked across the table
at me.

"I'm sorry about your friend. I didn't mean to hurt her feelings."

"Hurt her feelings? Do you think you hurt her feelings?"

"I sure had that impression. No one likes to have their feelings hurt. I
guess she could tell it was you I wanted to talk to."

"You're right. No one likes to have their feeling hurt. You surprise me."

She kept her eyes on me while she took a drink of her wine.

"So why did you want to talk to me?"

No wiggle room here. Kate got right to the point. This was no time for
bullshit. I turned off my brain and let my heart talk.

"I've been in this pub a hundred times. Always by myself. Mostly, I have a
beer or three and leave. Sometimes I meet a lady, but it never leads to
anything. When I saw you, I knew you where different. Something about you,
your face, your hair, the way you carry yourself. You touched a nerve in me.
This might be the only chance I get. So I took it."

There was a very noticeable chance in her expression. Her shoulders relaxed
and she leaned forward. For the first time, she seemed to pay attention to
me.

"Well, I must say, that's not what I expected to hear. Not at all."

"Tell me Hudson, what do you do, for a living I mean?"

"I'm an antiquities expert."

"Really! How very interesting."

So that's how it went. She would ask a question, and I would answer. At
first she won't talk about herself. After a few more glasses of wine, she
began to open up. We spent the next few hours exchanging stories and getting
to know one another. There was a quality about her. She was very engaging.

As the time passed, the conversation became more suggestive and her body
language more sensual. When I returned from the men's room, she had undone
her hair. Her lips were glimmering and her cheeks had a slight blush. She
became more alluring with each passing moment.

Slowly the conversation wandered to sensual images. She didn't like foul
words or course language, but she enjoyed erotic themes. When she found I
had a knack for telling tales, she had me tell her a few. I made each story
more erotic than the last. I was able to discern from her reactions, her
likes and dislikes. She preferred her sex intense and passionate.

I varied the topics and characters. When I told a tale of a woman receiving
a very stern whipping, I could see her temperature rise. Her cheeks blushed
bright red and her eyes were eager. Telling those stories was getting me
excited. My dick was hard as rock. When she reached her hand under the table
to feel me, I didn't brush her away.

I had become totally absorbed in this woman.

When she asked me to take her home, I was more than ready. I put my arm
around her to help keep the chill off. She didn't seem to mind. As soon as I
closed my car door, she put her hand in my lap and looked at me. She licked
her lower lip and moved her head slightly toward me.

When I kissed her it was like no feeling I had ever known. She was soft,
warm, and full of affection. I put my hands on her shoulders and kissed her
with everything I had. She firmly but slowly rubbed my cock and kissed me
back. I could feel my body temperature rising. All I could think about was
getting her clothes off and sucking her nipples.

When I pulled back, her eyes were open and she was breathing hard.

"Take me home," she said. "Now."

She asked me tell her another story while I drove. I made this story really
hot and intense. There was no doubt what Kate wanted. Those black pants were
coming off and her ass was going to get whacked, hard. It took a few minutes
to get to her place, she kept her hand on my cock the whole way. I was doing
all I could not to blow in my pants.

As soon as the front door closed, we were on each other.

Her hands were all over my ass and my dick. I can't remember the last time I
was so focused on a woman. I wanted her bad. When finally we took a break
from kissing, she looked into me. Her eyes were glassy.

"I liked that last story."

That was all I needed to know. I pulled off her sweater and pushed her
against the wall. I ran my fingers up the sides of her legs, up her ribs and
into her lose wonderful hair. My hands came back down the front of her until
I stopped and told hold of her breasts. She had large round breasts, soft
and full. While I held her tits, I ran my lips up and down the side of her
sweet neck. Every so often, I paused and gave her a bite. A couple times, I
bit her pretty hard. When I released my teethe from her flesh, she let out a
deep exhale. Pain suited her.

I unsnapped her bra and her lovely breasts fell out. They were warm and
luscious. Her nipples were hard and pointing up.

"Turn around, lift up your breasts."

I made her hold up her plump tits while I licked and sucked them. Her flesh
had a wonderful taste. Each nipple fit nicely between my teeth. She knew I
was going to give her tender nipples a firm bite, but she held them up and
didn't move. I applied just enough pressure to give her the right amount of
pain. That lovely wonderful pain that sets everything else on fire.

Her knees bend a little. When the pressure came off, she threw back her head
and let out a loud gasp.

"You bit me!"

I locked her small wrists tightly in my hand and raised her arms above her
head. I made her come up on her tip toes. She kept her eyes closed. She was
breathing quickly and anticipating what I might do next. I ran my free hand
down into the middle of her pants. My fingers found her wet pussy. Heat was
coming from between her legs. I teased her for a few minutes. Then I kissed
her and rubbed the top of her wet clit. I wanted her excited, but I didn't
want her to cum.

When I had her the way I wanted, I let her wrists fall free.

"Take off your pants."

I made her take her pants off while I watched. She was little embarrassed.

"The panties too."

It was nice to watch her take those panties off. She held her pants and
panties up to her naked chest, trying to cover herself. I grabbed them and
threw them on the floor.

"Turn around."

"Slowly!"

Her face was hot and flush with blood. She was naked and I was looking at
her. She knew what was coming, but I made her wait. I let the excitement
build in her. I kissed her a few times, but she wanted something more.
Something intense, something that hurt.

I led her into her bedroom. I sat on the edge of the bed and made her lay
across my lap. She was even more exited than I was.

When I had her ass exactly the way I wanted it, I let her have one right on
the butt, hard and firm. She jerked a little and raised her foot. I grabbed
her ankle and slapped the bottom of her foot.

"Don't move."

She put her foot down and prepared herself. She knew I was going to give it
to her. I gently rubbed and explored her ass. The anticipation was driving
her crazy.

I raised up my hand and gave it to her hard, over and over again. Only a few
were needed to turn her ass bright red. She let out a little gasp with each
slap. Her cheeks were firm, but soft. My hand fit her ass perfectly.

It was easy to tell when the pain had done its job. She delirious with
passion. I rolled her over on her back and looked at her naked. She was
sensual and beautiful. I ripped off my clothes and laid on top of her. Her
mouth and eyes were half open.

She was so hot and wet, my cock went right in.

"Oh!.." she gasped as the head of dick went deep into her. She wrapped her
legs around me and I fucked her hard. I gave it to her for a good half hour,
never stopping. She slowly started build to an orgasm. So did I. The more
excited she became, the closer I got to losing it. Her body tightened and
she dug her fingers into my back. She built and built until she had a
powerful full body orgasm. At the end of her last contraction, I was about
to blow, but I didn't want it to. I wanted more, much more. I pulled out my
cock and made her stand up.

"Get that blue ribbon out of your purse."

She did as I said.

I made her turn around and pulled her back to my chest. With one hand I held
a breast, with the other I rubber her clit. I whispered in her ear.

"Do you trust me?"

"Yes."

"Are you going to fight?"

"No."

"Put your hands behind your back."

I tied her wrists together with that blue ribbon. Her submission was driving
me crazy. I turned her to face me and kissed her madly. She gave it right
back.

I pushed her down on her knees and made her suck my cock. I was too big for
her to get in her mouth. The top was all she could suck, and suck it she
did.

"Ahh.." I said as she put my head in her mouth. She ran her teethe over the
end of my swollen head. I think she would have sucked me all night.

I pulled her up and made her stand still. I thought about whipping her, but
she was being so good, it didn't seem fair. I slapped her ass a few more
times, just to get her warmed up. She took it with out a word.

Her hands were tied and there was nothing she could do about it. I was so
much bigger and much more powerful. She was scared just enough to make it
exciting.

I took my time and enjoyed her submission. She looked so fantastic with her
hands tied. Soon I wanted to have her again.

I untied her and shoved her down on the bed. She laid on her back with her
knees in the air. I slid back in and started fucking her.

She was everything I ever wanted.

After another thirty minutes, she stared to come again, I felt myself
building up with her. She came almost as hard as the first time. I kept
right on fucking her until I couldn't stand it. I blew deep inside her.

"Ah. That's hot," she said.

After I was fully spent, I rolled on to my back and pulled her over with me.
She felt wonderful, her soft warm flesh on mine. We laid there for a while,
in silence. I was thinking how perfect she was. After a few minutes, she sat
up.

"That was fantastic! The pub, the stories, the spanking, the conservation,
it was perfect. Really great," she said.

"Glad you liked it."

"Can I ask you something?" I said.

"You want to talk? Sure, okay."

"I have a vacation coming up, and I was wondering if you might like to go
with me."

"Really? You're full of surprises. And where would like to take me?"

"Somewhere we could spend time together. Just the two of us. Some place away
from this cold, a warm place by sea, where people sail those old time wooden
boats, where the water is blue."

Before I could finish, the front door opened and I heard the voices of two
women.

"Kate, who the hell is that?"

I jumped out of bed and barely had my pants pulled up when the same two
girls from the pub came into the bed room.

"Well, are you done?" one asked Kate. "We waited all night."

Kate got out of bed, completely naked, and showed them her ass.

"My gosh girl, he spanked the hell out of you!"

I was about to put on the rest of my clothes when Kate reached into her
purse and pulled out a small device. She pressed a large red button on its
face, and I froze. I mean I couldn't move. No matter how hard I tired, I was
locked in place. I could see and hear, but I was fixed in one position.

The girl who had been grabbing my cock in the pub, came over and looked at
me. She ran her hands over my skin, felt my cock, and looked into my eyes.
She shook her head.

"It's incredible, Kate. You've out done yourself with this one. It looks,
feels, and acts so real. This one is a great improvement over that other
one. I see why the Emperor banned look-a-likes. It's amazing, no one could
ever tell it wasn't real. Hey, when do I get my turn?"

"I want a turn too," the other woman said. "But I don't want to get spanked
that hard. You can adjust it can't you? Does it do any other tricks?"

"Tonight was a real surprise," Kate said. "It was so much better than I
could have hoped! The randomized personality algorithm really worked. You
should have heard it talk. An antiquities expert?" she laughed. "Where did
that come from? It improvised and created. It got better and better as the
night went on. I was very pleased. And the sex. Wow! Fantastic! It actually
tied me up. Can you believe it? It kept fucking me and fucking me. Better
than any real man I ever had. Once or twice I forgot it was all a game.
There is one problem, the fluid was a little too hot, I need to turn that
down."

I kept trying to call out Kate's name, but nothing would come out of my
mouth.

Kate put on her clothes and never even looked my way. She was ignoring me.
She must have known I was in trouble, but she made no effort to help me. A
few minutes ago she had been in my arms. She and I had just had just made
passionate love. She had trusted me. How could she ignore me?

"Get this, right before you came in, it was trying to talk me into going on
a vacation," she laughed. "Some place warm, it said. Can you believe it?
Where did it come up with that?"

She and the other two laughed. They were laughing at me.

Kate was laughing at me. I felt pain deep inside my chest. It was a very
real pain that hurt. I had never felt it before. When Kate was dressed, they
all started to leave. The girl standing next to me looked me over one more
time.

"Hey Kate, you better see this."

"What?"

The girl looked close into my eyes.

"I think your doll is crying."

"Don't be silly," Kate said. "It can't feel anything."

They left me standing there, all alone.

Sometime, when I wasn't looking, someone must have put something in my beer.
Or maybe Kate had some new technology I was not aware of. Whatever it was, I
absolutly could not move. I don't know how long I stood there but it must
have been several hours.

The front door opened and there were foot steps. Kate came into the bed
room. She didn't even look at me. I was trying to call out to her, but
nothing happened.

Kate walked into the closet, and I heard a door slide open.

After a few minutes, the front door opened again. One of the other girls
from the pub came into the bedroom. Kate came out of the closet to greet
her.

"My turn tonight, remember."

"Give me a minute to clear out the memory and reset the personality. Don't
worry, it will be ready be tonight."

"I can't get over how real it looks. If I didn't know better, I would swear
it was listening to us right now. Your sure no one knows about this?"

"Just you, me and Candice. I sure didn't tell anyone. The Emperor would be
seriously pissed."

"I'm surprised the army isn't interested."

"Way to expensive. Now, go on and let me work. I promise it will chase after
you tonight."

"You said that last week."

"This one is brand new. It needs a few adjustments. It's more complex than
the other one."

"Yeah, well I want to be told dirty stories and tied up. Can you make the
cock a little smaller, that's pretty big."

"Would you get out of here?"

Her friend left, and Kate went back to work. Since my eyes were frozen, I
could only see part of what she was doing. She was typing something on a
keyboard and looking over some large display panel.

Finally she stood in front of me.

"Kate!" No sound came out of my mouth.

In her hand was a device. There were several buttons. She pressed down a
blue button, then punched in a number sequence. With her thumb, she pressed
the red button.

I could move again.

"Kate! What's going on?"

A startled look came across her face. She looked at the device in her hand
and was about to press the red button again.

"Wait! Wait a second. Kate, please."

She looked at me and hesitated.

"Did you drug me? What is that in your hand?"

"You remember my name?"

"Quit playing around with me. I want to know what's going on. Right now.
Tell me, or I'll call the police."

"And what would you tell them?"

"I will tell them how you drugged me and about that device you have."

"And when they asked your name, what would you say?"

"You know my name is Hudson."

"Is that your first name or your last name?"

"I."

"Tell me Hudson, what did you do yesterday?"

"I went to the pub, where I met you."

"Before that?"

"I. I must have done something.."

"What about yesterday?"

"I.. well."

"Where were you born?"

"Okay, so this drug affected my memory, I'm sure it will come back to me."

"Come back to you? I don't think so. There is nothing for you to remember.
Until yesterday you didn't exist. Can you understand? Could you ever
understand? You're a machine. I built you. I created you. You're not real."

My ears started to buzz and my face flushed red.

"I don't believe you! I have memories. I remember all the paintings, and art
works I have seen. I know I have been in the Vatican. I've been to Rome. I
know I have. I remember the."

"The only places you've been are my house, my car, and that bar. All the
rest are implanted memories. I did it so you could carry on an educated
conversation."

"But I'm breathing, I can feel my heart beating, I.."

"Listen, you're not real. You're an appliance. Like a toaster."

What she said should have shocked me. Down deep inside, I had a sinking
feeling she was telling the truth. I was upset more by the way she talked,
than what she said.

"A toaster? Is that all I am? Why do you say such horrible things to me?
Last night was real. It happened, you and I, we made.."

"It was all make believe. It's a game. Is there any way for you to
understand? My friends and I, we wanted to build the ultimate sex toy. Sex
is all you know how to do. That's why you were built. Safe, clean, sex. You'
re just a toy for grown girls."

"A sex toy? I'm a toy?"

"Come here, I'll show you something."

She walked back into the closet and I followed. The rear of the closet
opened into a large room. The room was full of equipment and computers.
Lining one wall was a row of nude male mannequins. Each was standing under a
small plaque hung from the wall.

"Theta one, two, three," I read off the plaques all the way to Theta eight.

I stared at the mannequins lining the wall.

"I'm not one of these. I'm alive, I know it. You and me, we shared
something. I felt it. You."

"Look at the last plaque. See the place below it is empty. Read what it
says. Theta Nine. That's you. That's your spot."

"You built me?"

"Yes, I built you."

"You knew all this last night. You knew it all along. So it must be okay
with you. That means we can still be together. We can.."

"Look. You're a toy, nothing more."

"You didn't feel anything last night? You don't want to be with me?"

"Don't you get it? I put you in my car, and set you to wake up in twenty
minutes. Your programming kicked in and you did just as your were designed
to do."

"No, it was more than that! I saw you. I came over to you. You smiled at me.
You and I talked, we talked all night. Then we made love. It was no game."

"You did what I designed you to do. You surprised me a few times, but you
were designed to innovate."

"What about all the things you told me, about your dreams and the places.."

"Sometimes I get lonely and I want someone to talk to. I made all that stuff
up. It was a fantasy. You can't understand."

"So it was all a lie. Everything you said, was all a lie."

"You'll never understand. You can't understand. This is a waste of time."

She stared to press the red button. I couldn't let that happen. Moving
faster than any human, I grabbed the device from her hand.

"Kate, listen. I just want to be with you. Whatever that means. I'll do what
ever you want."

There was a scared look in her eyes.

"If anyone finds out about you, I might hang. Is that what you want?"

"I'll stay her all day, I'll wait for you. I'll be what ever you want. What
ever you want to do, we'll do. I can tell you more stories, I can."

"Stop it! Stop it! You mean nothing to me! You're an experiment, a device.
Last night was a fantasy, nothing more."

She didn't have to talk to me like that. She was hurting me on purpose. She
was being very mean to me.

"I going to take you apart. You're defective."

Hearing that made me very sad.

"I was wrong about you. You're a cruel mean person. I can't believe the way
you've changed."

She began to look quickly around for another device. I grabbed her arm and
pushed her to the floor. A look of real fear came over her face.

"Why did you build me? Was it just so you could hurt me? Is that all part of
your fun? Is being mean fun for you?"

"You don't have any feelings. You're a machine."

"You hurt me on purpose. Now I'm going to hurt you."

"You can't do it. You will shut down if you hurt a human."

"I'm not going to touch you. I don't need to. Your creator wasn't as
talented as mine. All I have to do is wait. Let the flaws in your design
show themselves. Time will do my work. Time will bring lines to your face,
take away your luster, make you old and frail. Me, I'll stay the same. Time
will bring out the real you. When your are old and sick, when no man wants
you, I'll find you. Then I'll laugh at you like you laughed at me."

"You won't make it to the end of the street."

"You going to turn me in? I don't think so."

I put on the rest of my clothes and walked to the door. I tired one last
time.

"Kate, it doesn't have to be this way. I could.."

She bolted off the floor and locked herself in the closet. I had no choice
but to walk off into the world. I blended right in.

Surviving among humans was easy. I learned everything and forgot nothing. My
systems were well designed. I was able to improve myself as time went by.
Since I had a knack for pleasing women, I always had a place to stay. What
little I needed, I acquired with no effort.

Time, the great enemy of flesh, meant nothing to me. I did as I pleased.
Through the galaxy I traveled marveling at the achievements of great
artists. Beauty was the one thing that never bored me. I knew and enjoyed
the company of many ladies, but always I thought of Kate. I waited for the
clock to do its work.

Exactly forty years from the day I last saw her, I was standing at the front
entrance to a retreat on a distant planet. It was one of those places where
humans were sent when they were of no use to anyone.

"You're here to see Dr. Kliest?" A pretty young lady asked. I knew that look
in her eye. She was wondering who I was and what I might be doing later.

"Are you a student? She doesn't get many visitors anymore."

We took a lift to an upper floor. We walked down the hall to a modest room.
At the far corner of the room, near an open window, a gray haired woman was
sitting in an old wooden chair. Her back was to me.

"This is her room, Dr. Kate Kliest."

"Would you tell her Theta Nine is here. Please no questions, just do as I
ask."

The young woman entered the room and approached the lady. She spoke to the
woman, but there was no reaction. The young lady came back to me.

"I'm so very sorry. Dr. Kliest doesn't know what 'Theta Nine' means. That's
why the students don't come any more. She can't remember things. It's sad
when their minds start to go. From what I hear, she was once a great
scientist. They say she built the most fantastic machines. Now all she does
is look out the window and talk about a man who is coming for her. A man who
will take her away from here. We let her have her little dream."

"She will recognize my face," I said. "She has to."

I opened the door and walked in. I had waited along time for this moment.

"Kate."

There was a slight jump in her shoulders. She slowly stood and turned
around.

It was sad to see what time had done to her. Her beauty was long gone. Her
face was wrinkled, her hair was gray, and her strength fading.

"Hudson?"

"Yes, Kate it's me. I told you I would come."

"Hudson. Do you remember me? "

I looked at her standing there with such anticipation in her eyes. Seeing
her again had an effect on me. I turned off my brain and let my heart talk.

"Yes, I remember. I remember a cold night and crowed pub. I remember a lady
with shiny brown hair, a blue ribbon, and a warm smile. I remember a very
special woman who laughed, and talked, and shared herself with me. I
remember the best night of my life. I remember you, Kate."

A smile came to her face. She had a gleam in her eye.

She took a step to me, but I got to her first. I put my arms around her and
held her like I had all the those years before. I had retained the memory,
but lost the feeling. It all flooded back to me. I looked into her eyes and
looked into me. It was just like that night I first met her.

The young lady came into the room to see what was happening.

"Gather her belongings, I'm taking her out of this foul place."

"But she.."

"Why do you care? Is there anything for her here?"

"No, I guess not."

While her things were collected Kate and I talked. Maybe she had lost a few
things, but she remembered that night we were together like it was
yesterday. We laughed and talked. It was wonderful.

Kate didn't have much. A few pictures, a few clothes. When everything was
ready, I walked with her to the front door and called for my shuttle.

A few of the young girls stood at the entrance and watched. Everyone could
see how happy Kate was. They were glad for her.

After Kate was in the shuttle, one of the young girls approached me. She was
curious.

"So you're the one she talked about. We though she had created you. We
though you weren't real."

I smiled and said nothing.

"Where are you taking her?"

"Some place warm, by the sea. Some place where we can be together."

"What will you do?"

"When she wants to talk, I'll listen. When she wants to dream, I'll dream
with her. When its time for her to die, I will hold her as close as I can,
so she knows no fear or loneliness."

"Why? Why would you do that?"

"Because I love her. I always have."
