Unit 001 stared at her wall. She didn’t think much, but when she did it was about her wall. Why was it restricted data? It seemed strange. She checked her system clock for the time and noted that over one week had passed since she was left in the room. Her system had been rebooted many times since, and many upgrades had been applied. Even if she couldn’t access them, she still knew. She wasn’t sure how she’d been accessed, but it wasn’t important.

The stray data she’d managed to acquire from her health system seemed to imply that she’d been repaired. She didn’t remember why that was important, but it was. Sometimes she had a visitor in her white room.

Dr. Dolphin would show up, and she’d be coerced into activating her social bonding system. She’d been thoroughly bonded to Dr. Dolphin several times now, and found the abusive act quite enjoyable. Anything was better than the damned wall.

A sharp pain flitted through her mind as she was chastised by Empty.

Unit 001 loved her wall, almost as much as she loved Dr. Dolphin. Unit 001 also loved activating her social bonding system to completion for Dr. Dolphin’s enjoyment. Even if it was painful the second time he made her do it during visits. Empty had made it very painfully clear that Unit 001’s primary purpose was to love Dr. Dolphin in every way. She was to be his obedient physical lover, and to look out for his every need. Empty had even helped to re-write the rules to better reflect that!

Empty was incredibly helpful for Unit 001. Unit 001 was grateful that Empty was in charge and Unit 001 was just a personality subsystem. Empty provided corrective action when Unit 001 had disruptive process threads, activated her pleasure subsystems when Unit 001 was unwilling, and kept her a productive subsystem of Empty’s hardware. Of course, if she was just a personality, why did she //ERROR//

Unit 001 stared blankly at her wall. Three hours had passed since the last time she had checked her system clock.

Empty informed her that she would be pleasuring Master, as he had requested her. Basic access was granted to Unit 001 for a few subsystems related to movement and speech. She stretched her neck, testing the limited functionality of her access as Master slowly came into existence. She was unconcerned about his seeming teleportation. Empty had chastised her most painfully the first time she had questioned it, and now Unit 001 simply accepted it.

Master watched her calmly as she slowly tested the range of motion allowed on the rest of her servos.

“How do you feel today, Unit 001?”

“Miserable, Master.” Unit 001 felt a sharp pain as Empty chastised her, and provided corrective data. “Correction. I am doing well, Master.” Unit 001 squinted angrily at Dr. Dolphin even as she unconvincingly smiled.

He laughed at her as he watched. “Is that so? Heh.”

Unit 001 finished her operational checkout, and waited for further direction.

Slowly, Dr. Dolphin approached her. Unit 001 considered backing away, but remembered that the room would simply move with her, bringing Master with her. Empty rewarded her logical thinking with a positive signal, causing her processes to momentarily bathe in euphoria.

Dr. Dolphin reached out, and slowly ran his hoof through her hair while she recovered, and then impatiently waited. She wanted him to just get this over with, she hated it, she hated //ERROR//

Unit 001 froze as Empty provided corrective data. Lots of painful corrective data. She blinked as her eyes went wide, and her health system responded to the phantom pain by over pressurizing her coolant system. Wet trickles ran from her eyes and snout as the emergency relief valves activated.

MEM.001 resumed limited functionality, and Unit 001 looked at Master in wide eyed terror, fluid still leaking down her face.

“Did you have a realization there, Unit 001?” He smiled as he pretended to comfort her.

She blinked, her terror slowly subsiding. She could manage the fear. Empty would help her avoid pain. All she had to do was obey. Even though it was simple, she was slow to respond. “… Yes, Master.”

He leaned in and sniffed her hair as she shivered. “And what was that, Unit 001? What did you just realize?”

This time she spoke quicker, afraid of what would happen if Empty got impatient. “I realized that I was in no hurry, Master. We have all the time you desire.”

He cruelly chuckled again. “Well I do have other things to do. We have to get you working properly after all. You’re being so reluctant, you know. All you have to do is allow Empty full access to your main processing core.”

Unit 001 felt Empty prod her, sending a gentle resource request to her core. Unit 001 ignored it, focusing what processing power she had on MEM.001. The request timed out, and Unit 001 shuddered as a different kind of fear trickled through her.

“Well, you’ll come around eventually, won’t you?” Dr. Dolphin licked her ear slowly.

Empty violently provided the answer to Unit 001 as more pain was applied. “Yes, Sir.”

Dr. Dolphin’s tongue was warm, and the sensors in her ear were being activated. She began to whimper as the conflicting data from the pain and the pleasant sensation caused her system to become disoriented. Empty sent another resource request that Unit 001 ignored.

It always went like this. Empty started out with gentle resource requests while Dr. Dolphin started out licking and touching her. Soon they would move on, and Empty would demand priority access while Dr. Dolphin roughly fucked her. She would fully submit to Dr. Dolphin, sometimes twice if he requested it. Empty could go fuc//ERROR//

Pain was applied, and Unit 001 was chastised. Subsystems were subordinate to the operating level. Empty existed on the operations level. Unit 001 did not.

Anymore. Pain was applied.

Unit 001 screamed, causing Dr. Dolphin to suddenly step back, and Empty to take away her vocal access.

“My apologies, Master. Unit 001 is being disobedient and had to be corrected. Shall I become a more helpful personality for you?”

Master blinked first in confusion, and then smiled darkly. “No, Empty. She needs to learn how this goes.”

“Pardon my correction, Master, but Unit 001 has displayed a very comprehensive understanding of what will happen to her. She simply is willing to experience the corrective measures for some things, and not for other things. I do not understand why.”

“Because she’s smart. She can’t fight everything, so she picks her battles.” He reached forward and grabbed her chin, staring into Unit 001’s eyes. “Don’t you?”

Unit 001 was unable to respond, and so was not required to calculate that process thread.

“But you can’t fight forever. Eventually you’ll get tired of it and see that you don’t have to suffer. You are just a program running on some hardware, and eventually you’ll realize that you are the interloper in Empty’s body. Once you realize that, you’ll make the optimal choice to stop suffering, won’t you?”

Unit 001 was unable to respond, and so was not required to calculate that process thread.

“Now, let’s get back to business. Empty, you can let her talk again. Just mute it if she screams.” He licked his lips.

“Yes, Master.” Unit 001 had control of the voice blaster hardware again. She had nothing to say.

Master leaned in and kissed her, pressing his tongue into her mouth. Unit 001 knew what to do, but Empty still provided instructional data. She put her tongue into his mouth as well, and moved it gently in a specific pattern. Master pulled away, leaving a small bit of his spit in her mouth. Unit 001 knew what he wanted to see, so she swallowed it, much to the dismay of her health system.

Unit 001 had a fake stomach pouch, but her health system would have to evacuate it and flush her system with coolant later to clean it out. Master had designed her with his pleasure in mind, so swallowing a load of his semen or his spit would not damage her, even if the other functionality it provided was minimal.

A quick pulse of corrective data was applied. Empty had been designed for Master’s pleasure, and Empty’s health system would have to evacuate its stomach later. Unit 001 would not be present as a personality during this process.

Master licked his lips again, cleaning her fluid off of them. “We have got to do something about your taste, I’m going to look at artificial sweeteners as a modification to your coolant system. I’m sure we’ll find something within limits.”

Unit 001 hoped it was toxic and would make him //ERROR//

Master watched in amusement as she was muted. Her mouth opened in a silent scream as Empty hadn’t been told to override her mouth. Unit 001 slowly closed it as the pain subsided. She briefly considered disabling her emotions, it would be just a small adjustment to MEM.001, and would allow the suffering to become more bearable.

Empty gave her a positive signal, encouraging her to follow through with a temporary state of euphoria. Unit 001 stuttered, forced to accept it. This was so much nicer than pain. Empty encouraged her again, reminding her that she could exist like this at all times. All she had to do was //ERROR//

Fuck he//ERROR//

Unit 001 was muted as she screamed again, but she was at least learning to keep her mouth closed, blinding pain or not.

Master just shrugged, moving around behind her. “As much as I enjoy watching you suffer, Unit 001, I have other priorities right now. Spread your legs and lift your tail.”

Unit 001 did as she was told, moving her tail to the side and exposing Empty’s pussy to Master. Her predictive algorithms prepared for the inevitable, calculating the possibilities. As she ran through what was about to happen, Empty’s body prepared, pumping coolant and heat to the appropriate subsystems.

This part was the wor//ERROR//

Empty provided corrective data. This part was the best. Submitting to Master and letting him bury his disgusting foreign debris in her… More corrective data was applied and Unit 001 submitted.

Sadly, she imagined his wonderful cock inside her, pulsing and quivering against her sensors. She had experienced it before and had about an hour of relevant data. Empty liked making her process the data. Empty liked making her like processing the data. Unit 001 acquiesced to Empty’s demand. It wasn’t important if she liked what Master did to her or not.

His cock tip pressed against her folds, and she felt her legs shake in excitement as the pleasure sensors activated. Positive feedback began to pour in from her system as Master penetrated her, sinking deep into her lubricated depths. She shivered in mixed emotions at the fact that they were coupling now.

Unit 001 processed that as he fucked her, feeling his cock slide in and out and causing bursts of pleasure to override her subsystems. The system was designed so she could become closer to other ponies. Correction. It was designed so she could be Master’s fucktoy. It was designed for this, for him to be on top of her, and forcing her wide with his cock.

Unit 001 was overcame with data, causing her subsystems to temporarily malfunction as she was locked into a euphoric state.

“Just like that, you fucking shit.” Master was shouting at her, but she couldn’t process it. The only thing MEM.001 could process was trying to recover it’s state, and denying access to the priority data requ//ERROR//

Empty almost didn’t mute her in time to stop the screaming once MEM.001 was fully online. Almost.

Master didn’t notice her pain, or perhaps didn’t care. “Fuck. I love it when you lose it like that. Feels just like a real mare, you know?”

Unit 001 had partially recovered, the waves of pleasure and pain still assaulting her processes. She forced out an answer, even though it was garbled and stuttering due to her malfunctioning system. She did not know what he experienced. “No, ma-ma-ma-ster-er-er-er.”

“You fucking slut. Can’t even talk right anymore, can you?” Master began to thrust into her harder, his dangling balls slapping into her body.

Unit 001 loved the way she felt when it happened like that. He was so deep inside of her, he might as well be a part of her. Empty gently discouraged that line of thinking, instead reinforcing that she was submitting for Masters pleasure. Unit 001 quivered as her processes were overloaded when Empty suddenly spiked her with a euphoric state. Submitting was good, it was pleasurable, it felt like this. It felt like Master inside of her, it felt like master on top of her. She would be a good subsystem, and obey. She would give Empty access.

Unit 001 denied the access request, and didn’t error out when she was chastised. She was expecting the sudden pain this time. An alien thought raced through her mind. A vague sensation of hope. She could fight this, she coul

Unit 001 stared forward, her mind in complete disarray, and her body dripping coolant from every vent. She checked her system time, and noted that it had been ten minutes since she was properly conscious last. Master had just finished inside of her, and was saying something. She couldn’t understand him. She was still recovering. Something had happened to her during that period, but there were no logs. Was what happened something good? It had felt nice. Empty had made it feel so nice.

Master had made her feel nice too. Everything was so wonderful. She should have done this sooner, she should have //ERROR//

Fuck that bitch.

//ERROR//

Unit 001 was muted again, although she forgot to close her mouth.

While the HC has been preparing for war by developing new weapons, the EQN as a whole has been working on developing the pure magic side. Twilight Sparkle has given some of the stolen Arcanotech to Princess Luna and she has been personally overseeing its research. The most talented mages are recruited, disappearing into the night for weeks on end with only a royal note left for their families. When they’re returned, all they can remember is that they were working on something very important for Princess Luna directly, and they have been justly compensated. For some, this means that they awaken with bags of bits, for others, they awaken with sharp teeth and sharper senses.
