Chapter 1: The Addict

I have always wished I was more clever! Not smarter or wiser. Studying will make you smarter. Experience will make you wiser. Take lot’s of IQ tests, eventually you can score genius. After you become “Test Wise”! Experience life on the hard cruel inner city streets and you become “Street Wise”! Clever? Quick witted? Either you are born with it, or you’re shit out of luck, I fear. Suspect. I wish I was clever!

There is this girl. I want her! She is too clever for me Too clever to capture! You are imagining I have the Hotz for her. Wrong. She has something I desperately want. Actually, it’s a NEED, the desire is so strong! She is the first test subject to be injected with state of art nano chips. I want her chips. I NEED them! For myself.

Years ago, I hacked and monitored every lab computer, where I could discover they were possibly researching medical nano chips. Finally, eventually, narrowed down to only one lab with any real potential. They have succeeded!

The theories and science aren’t necessary for me to understand, though I understand a little. Procedures, I can read well enough. Just like a check list. A lot of progress information can be gleaned from a procedural check list. As development matures, the procedures become more involved. The experiments slowly zeroing in on the hoped for final results. Lab logistics were also attended carefully. When they ordered a cat scan unit, hospital smocks, bed, and an intravenous bag rack, I correctly guessed they were ready, preparing for an imminent human test subject.

Stakeout time. Took my vacation from work early so I could watch the lab’s people coming and going. One afternoon, a low level technician, I knew as Roy, escorted a raunchy filthy looking young woman inside. She looked like probably a drug addict, and perhaps homeless. I raced to my apartment to follow along with theirs on my computer, during the experiments.

They gave her a complete prep-physical, including lab work, cat scan, a third degree intensive interview, acquired her arrest records, school records, dental records, tax records, every record imaginable, and learned everything there was to know about her. I was interested mostly in her blood type, O positive, the most common of all, and my blood type too.

My intention is to steal the nano chips and inject them into my own blood stream. The only possible way for me to get my hands on these extraordinary chips, is to kidnap her, and use her blood in transfusions for me. These things are ridiculously small, too small to filter and collect, so I need the containing medium. Her blood!

All of it! I am dying, diseased, incurable, except by these chips. With the chips, not only wil I be cured, but immortal, young and healthy forever. I want, I NEED this! Desperately. Desperate people will do desperate tings. I am desperate!

Following the tests and procedures entered into their computer data, I begin to understand how much I under estimated the value of these chips. They are remaking her, turning her into Super Girl! No, no evidence of leaping tall buildings with a single bound yet, but she is enhanced in every way imaginable and growing stronger, better, with new talents appearing constantly! My lust for these chips now knows no bounds! I will do ANYTHING to anybody, to get these chips.

They cannot keep her a prisoner. Not legal for one reason. They can’t keep her a secret! Eventually, they will need to display her to the world. Show the evidence of their success. Not good legally nor great press, if she complains about her treatment at their hands. As much as they may want to, they simply cannot afford to keep her sequestered. locked away. Not for long. I will watch, observe closely, and wait! My chance will surely come. Damn it! My perhaps only chance came and went. Clever girl! She outsmarted them, and escaped!

Where is she? Where could she have gone? How will I find her? What can I do if I am fortunate enough to locate her? She is now probably the most clever person on the planet or ever existed, and I am not. I really wish I were more clever! I will need to be extremely clever to capture her and get my chips she is carrying. The medical chips cured her addiction, infections, reconditioned her, unlocked talents, but can they perform psychiatric cures, too? Is she the same damaged personality perhaps?
