Valkyrie Smash

Chapter 2 WARNING: PLEASE DO NOT BANG THE MACHINES.

Somewhere around the end of 2025 the third world war started, however if didn't last long. A new enemy had emerged forcing all sides to cooperate. Still that did little to delay the massacre.

Calamities. That's the name they've been known with since their first appearance. Strange beasts with no set shape or form. They change and adapt to the surroundings, however everywhere they go death soon follows.

Humanity was driven to a corner. 50% were wiped out in a single month. Hope was lost, everyone had given up and prepared for the end, that's when a savior emerged.

He called himself Odin. A mysterious man with unrivaled wisdom and intellect. Gathering what's left of humanity he searched for a way to fight back. After many desperate battles and millions of lives lost, humanity was finally able to create weapons that could push back against the Calamities.

The Valkyries were androids capable of fighting against the strange monsters. In other words they were robots with human appearance equipped with highly advanced AI.

One of those AIs was now asking if Sam if sees it as a human and that terrified him to the core.

"What're you saying, Zero Five?" He asked laughing nervously.

The idea of AI gaining sentience and rebelling against humans was played to the death and when the Valkyries first appeared many were quick to turn the conspiracy onto them.

"Well, since we do look like human and… our behaviors and interactions aren't so different." The girl said, her gaze going down once more. "I've been wondering if we sometimes get mistaken for humans…"

"... I see…"

Odin was a genius but he was also a weird man. When he created the central processing units, the supercomputer hosting the Valkyrie AI, for some reason he decided that the weapon it'd be planted into has to closely resemble humans.

Since Odin was the only one capable of creating said weapons he was allowed to make the final choices on how they looked. There shouldn't have been any problem with something like that as long as the purpose behind it is achieved.

However one could see what's wrong with that line of thought when looking at the final result. All of the shells ended up being beautiful women, every last one of them. Oden had made the most powerful supercomputers in the world then used it to create an army of attractive female robots. One can easily guess what his intentions were during the whole process.

"Listen, Zero Five." Sam rubbed his temples, smiling weakly as he spoke. "Never talk about such things again, understood?"

"Huh? But why?" The girl asked looking rather surprised.

"Well if people hear that they might think you're going out of control, and that would lead to some really big trouble."

No matter how human they look, no matter how human like they behave, the fact that this "girl" and those like her are nothing more than robots doesn't change.

Though the actual process is a well guarded secret, their bodies are manufactured in a lab and their personalities are preprogrammed to suit the taste of their creator; Zero Three was the energetic tomboy who likes sports, Nine is the caring older sister everyone loves and Zero Five is the cool beauty who's always silent.

Those characters are already set and can't be changed, that's why Zero Five's behavior struck Sam as odd.

Maybe she was the shy character all along? He thought, not wanting to believe that he's witnessing the start of another apocalypse.

"As for whether you're mistaken for human or not, I don't think that will happen." He said. "After all no woman is as beautiful as you are. Those unable to see the difference are just delusional."

"I… see…" Having heard her answer, Zero Five bowed her head slightly. "Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. I'll be taking my leave now."

She turned around and quickly strode to the door, her long ponytail swaying behind her. For a moment there Sam was able to catch a glimpse of her face. Her cheeks her a bit red. That in itself wasn't strange, but when he thought that his previous comment might have made her blush he felt his heart skip a beat.

Maybe she's the shy type after all.

The Valkyries were all extremely attractive females. One look and any man would fall in love. Sam had the rare opportunity of working closely with them and though he had enjoyed it at first it soon turned out to be a nightmare.

After a while he realized that just looking wasn't enough. He wanted to do things to them. He wanted to spread their legs and pump them full of his seed. He wanted to push them against the wall and bang them until his thing falls off. But no matter how much he wished to that desire is destined to go unfulfilled.

The Valkyries were all extremely attractive females but they are some of the most valuable military equipment humanity possessed as well. The way they were made didn't change that fact, and if by any chance someone tried to use them as nothing more than highly advanced sex dolls they'd quickly get disposed.

One could argue that everything would be fin as long as no one finds out. There were no security cameras in his lab so he was free to do whatever he wanted, however those were the words of temptation playing with his mind and nothing more.

Sam knew as much because of his job. He is a major in the field of nanotechnology and his main role was to operate machines used to examine the Valkyries and perform the necessary repairs in case they got damaged.

The examinations are performed on a daily basis and the results are sent to the Human Resistance's headquarters each time along with the data from the machines. Everything from the smallest scratch to what substance they came into contact with is recorded and if anything out of the ordinary is detected an investigation would be launched.

Before he took the job Sam was warned to never do as much as touch the Valkyries. He heard rumors about someone with the same job taking advantage of his position to enjoy himself. Though he only touched the weapons a few times thinking the evidence could be easily erased the fact that he did appeared in the examination results which led him to the military court. It's said that the man had committed suicide while in prison while some say that Odin had used his inflicted to get him killed for daring to defile his creations.

There were many variations to this story and though it's validity is questionable Sam was smart enough to not test his luck. That said, he wished the day he'd get relieved from his position would come sooner. He was afraid the day he could no longer hold himself back would be the first to arrive.

After all he couldn't see humanity defeating the Calamities any time soon.
