Read Online The First: EVO Uprising by Kipjo Ewers - Free Book Online Page B

one with long orange hair and big glowing orange eyes had a rustic red and orange color scheme to the metallic parts of her cybernetic body, while her molded bust was slightly larger than Maxine’s metallic bosom. The female droid adjacent to her wore a cynical look on her face with her arms folded, her hair was cut similar to Erica’s and Maxine’s but dyed purple with black streaks matching her deep glowing purple eyes; her color scheme was a gothic gunmetal gray with light yellow accents. Unlike Maxine and her companion, the glowing lights on her limbs and body were an orange color. She frame was more slender with a smaller chest as opposed to her other two “sisters.”  
    “ You built more than one,” Graves asked with a hint of displeasure.  
    “ Well, I couldn’t just build one,” Lady Tech shrugged. “The one in orange with the fire top is Angie and the brooding one in purple and gray is Jennifer, my lovely dolls.”  
    “ Dolls…” Graves’ tone became more displeased by the second.  
    “ Uh… yeah… I’m a girl.” She gave him the same look that she gave Mendes a minute ago as if he too was slow. “I like dolls. I specifically designed their A.I.s for each of their bodies, but they can also upload into the main system like Maxine or into other bodies. Angie was designed for heavy lifting, while Jennifer was built for speed using lighter armor and ridiculously fast lightning speed processors.”  
    “ Again, using this facility as your personal little playground,” Graves frowned.  
    “ Actually, I built them because I don’t trust normal stupid people to work on my projects with me,” returned Erica with a flat tone. “Considering all of their A.I’s were mapped from my brain, it’s like having three more of me to execute the tasks I need done so I’m not wasting your little 2.5 billion that I could make ten times over if I decide to rejoin the private sector.”  
    The awkward silence returned as new school and old school locked eyes again giving neither an inch nor a quarter.
    “ Why don’t you stick your tongue down her throat, you perv?” The android, designated as Jennifer, broke the silence with her raspy voice. “Isn’t that the reason you’re staring her down so hard?”  
    “ Jennifer! That’s rude!” Angie scolded her sister with her high-pitched Valley Girl voice. “He’s the Secretary of Defense!”  
    “ Well, he’s acting like Bill Clinton, damn lolicon!” Jennifer sneered.  
      The comment made Rogers grunt, Mendes forced himself to choke on his chuckle, and Dr. Alexander just shook his head. Graves slowly turned to the android who wore a look of disgust as she glared at him, and decided he had his fill, specifically of Lady Tech’s company.  
    “ I believe we’ve seen all we need to see of this facility,” Graves dryly began his exit speech, “and I have more pressing matters to attend.”

    Eight minutes later everyone, excluding the androids, were topside once again. Dr. Alexander and Mendes boarded the helicopter while the Secretary, now flanked by his agents, addressed Abe and Erica.  
    “ As I stated earlier Rogers, the rest of your team should be arriving tomorrow at 1100 hours,” said Graves. “I’ll take it I don’t have to worry about you getting them squared away in the six months time required.”  
    “ No sir.” Rogers kept it tight and formal with Graves.  
    “ I know we got off to a rocky start.” The Secretary cracked a fake smile. “But I have every faith that I have chosen the right man for this position.”  
    “ I’ll do my job.” Rogers’ granite exterior cracked a fake smirk. “Sir.”  
    Before Graves could extend his hand for a shake, Rogers snapped a crisp salute bidding him farewell. Graves smirked and nodded.
    “ Ms. Champion,” Graves addressed Erica without making eye contact with her.  
    “
