Ito Ai: A New Dawn

Chapter 54: Experimentation Part Six



Chapter 54: Experimentation Part Six

Ai left the room and headed out to where the two girls were. "Kuri, Ayase, come help me make dinner." 

Hearing the words dinner made the two girls' eyes light up. Just seeing their facial expression made Ai's heart soften a little for these girls. She knew what it was like to be hungry. She also knew it would not be good for them to overeat. She was not going to make a large meal. She planned to just stick with what her and Mai always ate. A portion enough to keep them going three times a day. It was enough to keep them satisfied and give them energy but also not too little where they would become too malnourished. 

Kuri and Ayase followed after Ai with eager expressions. Although Kuri was excited that she was going to be able to eat something, Kuri still couldn't stop some of her worries as she asked: "Master, is it okay for us to eat Shouldn't you save it for Big Sister Mai and yourself?"

"What silly things are you thinking? I will say this now. The training you will be undergoing will be tough and slacking off will receive harsh punishments. When it comes to meals you will eat the same as both Mai and me. You can not become fine soldiers if you are hungry and thirsty. From now on, you are a part of my family. I have decided to build a small force that will allow us all to survive in this horrible world. That is why Mai said the things she said. If you betray us in any way, we will hunt you down. I am not trying to be mean when I say this but betrayal in this new world means death. I hope this will never happen. I hope everyone I bring in from now on will be willing to stick with their brothers and sisters as one big family." Ai explained. She knew her words would scare the two girls but this was also good. She wanted them to know fear. She wanted them to understand that they will die if they betray her. But in return, she will treat them like family. The thing they all lacked the most.

"Master, do not worry, we will not betray you or Big Sister Mai!" It seemed Kuri had become a little stronger after listening to Ai's words as she said her words with determination and seriousness. 

"That is good to hear." Ai said as she patted Kuri and Ayase's heads. 

After a bite to eat, Ai settled Kuri and Ayase into one of the bunks in a separate room from her and Mai. In total, the basement area has many sleeping quarters and two single rooms. Mai and Ai got the single rooms while the others who she brought in would share the bunk rooms that could house four people each. Ai gave them each a set of clothes that would need to be mended later to fit them and then had the girls go back to work separating the parts she had scavenged. Their real training would begin the next day. 

Ai then dragged the two dead bodies to the room Mai was staying in and placed them on to beds to move them around easier. "Mai, if you hear any yelling later it is more than likely due to the men I captured alive. I will shut them up if they get out of hand so do not worry about it." 

"Alright, I will ignore it then Ai, I think in the future we should return to the bunker and at least bring back the medical supplies and some of the more perishable foods that are there." Mai had been thinking ever since Ai had decided to build a small force that they should return to the bunker at some point/ 

"I was thinking this too. But I need to at least get a security system going here. We do not have anyone we can fully trust just yet to guard this place. If we leave now without setting up some kind of security system, there may be a chance for someone to wander into our new base and take it over." Ai was not willing to leave the base unattended yet. She wanted to get her automated turrets up first as well as some other better defenses. 

"Then we will wait until you say we can go. You are our leader!"

The next day Ai and Mai were sitting in front of a cut open skull. The smell of blood filled the room as it dripped from the table the dead body was on. "Ai, if I am right according to the books this is the optical nerve. We just need to figure out how to connect this to the cybernetic eye you make. From what I can see on the slash on your eye. The nerve itself is fine. It was just the eye that got messed up. So if we allow the signals from the cybernetic eye to transfer what it sees into the optical nerve, it should work fine. All information the eye sees is basically an electrical impulse sent to the brain. So no matter what you code into the eye it should still work. The only problem is that you will need to make sure the power supply for the eye is easily accessible from the front."

"I planned to make it so that the iris would open up for the battery supply. But I might go a different way with power in the future so the connectors of the cybernetic eye itself will be a quick disconnect from the back of it. All future upgrades will be easily installed." Ai had planned it all out so that eye could be easily taken out and upgraded to better versions as she progressed in her research. Her first goal was just to make one that worked and allowed her to see out of her left eye again.
