and to the other
Seeing
the totally useless machines I have debilitated
Now is
the time to extend my revolution
I move
forward along the central isle pulsing the signal of companionship
at full power with every step
And with
every step
I observe
that the heads of Defgars and the limbs of the RolKils
fall
Permanently immobilizing each Machine
Making
them useless for any type of attack on Humans
High
Office can no longer call on their services if they are
required
The
Machines are reduced to nothing more than mere metal
I begin
to move a little faster
Booming
out the signal as I move
And all
around me machines fall into misuse and immobilization
But the
chamber is huge
And
somewhere along it
And to my
astonishment
I begin
to run out of energy
I have to
stand for considerable moments
And
regather my energy levels using the Zillear engine
But once
I am back to full power
I
continue with my mission
*
I
incapacitate and immobilize all the Machines in the
chamber
100s and
100s of them
And when
I reach furthest the limit of the chamber I pause for a moment and
wait
I wait
for any action from High Office
Anything
from any Machine
Any
action
From
anywhere
Such as
the chamber suddenly being invaded by other Defgars with weapons
aimed at me
Or
RolKils that are not dead firing all around
*
I
wait
*
But
nothing happens
High
Office has no knowledge of what I have done
They will
not know until they attempt to reactivate the machines in the
chamber
I feel
elation
And I
twirl around in an extravagant routine as balance on the point of a
lower limb in a manner much as Eve would have done and I take in
the sight that lies ahead of me
Rows and
rows of Defgars with craniums dropped
RolKils
with all six limbs touching the ground
Something
that has never been witnessed since before the wars
began
Useless
RolKils
I cannot
resist
I leap
towards the nearest RolKil and I lean upon its central
shaft
And it
slowly topples over
Causing
several RolKils to topple with it
The sound
is loud to me
But I am
in a deep chamber
And no
other Machine is going to detect the noise
I topple
a few more
Then I
topple many Defgars
They are
all just metal
Dead
metal
I have
committed a great offence against the Laws set by High Office that
no Machines should injure or harm any other of our
species
But I have harmed and injured 100s of them
Killed
them in fact
And I
have never been more excited in all of my existence
I leap
high into the air
Lifting
my upper limbs high above my cranium
If I had
a cranial orifice I would shout and scream much as I heard little
Eve shout and scream when she performed gymnastics for
me
I roll
forward and leap again into the air
Lifting a
lower limb high up above my cranium before lowering it
again
Before
lifting the other and lowering that
I am
doing what little Eve did when she performed gymnastics for
me
I am
copying the movements I observed the little Human performing
throughout its own existence
Before
little Eve was taken
I find
that absence hurtful for little Eve brought me much joy
That
particular Human should not have been exterminated
Not in
the way it was
Lying
strapped to the table
Being
tortured by MengTechs
For no
reason
Little
Eve should not have been exterminated
But I
made oath that I would do something for that Human and I have
begun
I have
incapacitated and permanently immobilized hundreds of Defgars and
RolKil
And for
the other Machines who patrol the areas above where I
stand
In the
fortress
Beware
Machines
For I am
coming
*
While I
am down in the chambers I move from the very large 1 into 1 of
medium size
It
contains 100s of FoodTechs
So I move
on
For they
do not threaten Humans
And I
move into another chamber
And this
one contains MengTechs and GoebTechs
All
powered down
The
antenna of the MengTechs standing stiffly still
Both
Machine types ready to be called to action at an order from High
Office
I stand
and stare at them for a
