Cyborg Theory

Dear class. I apologize for my absence. The brethren have called me into the field and I am tactically doing away with a little annoyance of ours. ~~His name is Thor, btw. HAHAHHAHAHAH~~. Please take a copy of the reading Johnny Mnemonic by William Gibson. This short story – made into a deliciously terrible film staring the illustrious Keanu Reeves – is actually quite good and is a morality tale about the dangers of mixing the human brain with cyborg components. It also has a skeeeerrryass dolphin. And the best female character ever written. ~~OMG PROTO-TRINITY HOW I WORSHIP YOU.~~

Also, I must note if you enjoy the story, the conclusion is in Gibson’s novel Neuromancer.

Anyway. I must be off.

xoxo

"You call this time. I called them for the last thing. Too many of those and the General will stop picking up the phone when he sees my number." ~~"I hear liquid nitrogen is good for these kinds of situations."~~

Kawalsky pulled out his cell phone, found the number in his phone and called it while still in class.

"This is Charles Kawalsky.. uh.. Charles Kawalsky Junior for the General please. Yes, it's an emergency. Password? Um.. Conundrum." He waited. "General, this is Charles Kawalsky. Yes sir, the dead one who's not dead anymore. Classes are just fine sir, thank you for asking. I'm in Cyborg Theory right now. Yes, I'm calling from class. The teacher, the one that looks like Lt Colonel Carter, just left. Yes sir, she said she was being recalled to go kill a little guy named Thor. I believe you know him. Yes sir. Just thought you should know. Okay, talk to you later sir. Bye." He looked over at Sam. "Done. He says hi."

"Great," Sam replied, weakly. He really...yes, he really did just do that in the middle of the hallway, on an unsecured cell phone.

She needed a drink.

[*dies and is dead*]

"What?" He looked around.

Sam covered her eyes with her hand and mumbled under her breath, "Is Classified just a word to you, Charlie?"

Kawalsky thought about it for a moment. "Evil teacher that looks like you going to kill little guy named Thor. That's not so much classified as it is the pilot for a new sci-fi series." He grinned.

Sam chuckled, somewhat unwillingly. "It's the call to the General part on an unsecured cell phone that's a little disturbing."

"Oh. Well, yeah. But every good godson should ~~report in~~ call godfather General Hank to tell him when crazy fembot ladies are gonna kill one of his friends. I.. really don't know what I'm saying." He offered a colorful packet of candy. "Skittle?"

"Thanks," she said, putting her hand out.

Kawalsky dished out some Skittles. "So.. you got a minute to talk? I was talking to John Connor last week and he kinda came out with some pretty heavy stuff. Said he told you too."

"Sure," she shrugged, eating the purple ones first, "Seeing how class is cancelled anyway. I don't want to do it in the hall, though, if that's okay? God forbid any of this end up on the radio."

"No, probably not a good idea to get this on the radio. Well, not unless we want panic and chaos and.. not good stuff."

Sam shook her head. "No. Definitely not. I didn't take it well, and I'm used to bad stuff. I think my room should be free, or we could go to yours, or I guess we could take a walk or something."

"Let's go for a walk. Less chance of someone overhearing us."
