Book Chapter - Recapture Procedure - WIP - 7/18/21 (Patreon)

The alarms hadn’t sounded yet, no one but the machines guard she knocked out were aware of her escape, running down the hallway in hopes of finding a way out, or at least someplace to hide. Unfortunately, wearing nothing but a black latex prison cell suit, with a long-sleeve turtleneck leotard-like design, she stuck out like a sore thumb. Even If she found a way out, it wouldn’t be long till she was discovered. Having shorted out most of the wiring in the cell block, it wasn’t difficult for her to get to the front door, the lights outside flickering so much it was almost disorienting. The front door stuck half-open malfunctioning as the loud whirring and clanking could be heard within the walls. The lights seemed to be flickering on the other side of the door, much like it would in a sci-fi horror film. The escapee prepared herself for a fight as she exited through the gap, but the two human guards seemed just as disoriented as the androids she had subdued. With the metal visors stuck on their heads, they were completely unable to see, the flickering lights messing up their optical inputs as they struggled to remove them.
Right as she thought her escape had been flawless, several tail slots opened up from the walls, revealing would appear to be eight spherical cannons lined up down the circular hallway. Gasping in shock, The young woman stopped in her tracks, holding her arms in front of her as the cannons slowly aimed in her direction. The young woman prepared herself for a painful impact or a zap of some kind, but then instead, all she heard was a rubbery thud right in front of her. Looking down, she saw would appeared to be a black shiny rubber ball seemingly stuck to the floor as it began to expand with a soft hisss. baffled, she didn’t know what to make of it, Much less how it posed a threat to her. Even with all ofthe kinky tests she had been forced to participate in, this seemed new to her. But then, once the other cannons began firing similar balls, her heart jumping as she prepared to be pelted.
Strangely, the balls weren’t even fired in her direction, smooshing all over the hallway as the turrets were spinning at aiming at random. The young woman sighed with relief, seeing as her tinkering had left the defense system completely compromised. Even so, the large sticky rubber balls continue to coat the hallway, slowly inflating all over the walls and floor like water balloons. Though risky, she bolted down the hallway, running as fast as she could as she stepped around each and every ball in her path. Since the turrets were firing at random she couldn’t exactly dodge the flinging balls, just running at full sprint in hopes of escaping before her luck ran out. With only a couple of close calls, one whizzing past her face and one on the inches from slapping her ear, she made it out of the malfunctioning block and down a brightly lit hallway.
Meanwhile, in the chaos of the two machines came back to their senses, standing up on their feet as they both observe the aftermath of their carelessness. The overcharged android, Sevens, stretched out her shiny robotic limbs, feeling refreshed after is the surprise jolt she received. The other android she was with however, 09, was far less amused, struggling to cures out of frustration as her voice box malfunctioned, her words coming out as glitching stuttering gibberish. 09 gave her head a couple of smacks with her palm, fixing up her eyesight and her vocals as she stood up next to her partner, who was already peeking into the escapee’s cell block. Sevens noticed that a couple of the inflatable pads on the floor had been ripped open, with one of the plates removed revealing the sophisticated wiring underneath.
“Well well…” Sevens whispered with amusement in her static voice. “I love this woman’s handiwork.” 09 stepped forward tilting her head at Sevens, surprised with her reaction. “Are kidding me?” she retorted, pointing her hand down at the dismantled floor tile. “She could’ve seriously damaged us, not only that but she somehow found a way to rip up this state-of-the-art containment rubber.” Her voice much more serious and stoic than her current counterpart. The overcharged machine simply turned her head towards her, placing her hand underneath her chin plate. “Oh what can I say? I just love a human who knows her way with machines.” she said with a playful snicker. 09 just rolled her head back, placing her hands on her hips in disappointment. “Ugh, Gross, you’re one of those.” 09 responded.
Sevens just tilted her head up with a robotic snicker, before looking back down at the broken tile and circuitry. “In all seriousness, this is rather impressive, she did a lot of damage with so little to work with.” Sevens said scratching her chin. Walking into the room, 09 kneeled down to examine the damage more closely. Not only did appear that the wires were tinkered with for sometime, but they were rearranged in a very specific order, possibly multiple times. “We’re not dealing with some run-of-the-mill electrician, whoever she is she knew what she was doing the second she opened this panel, however she managed to do it.” 09 said, running a diagnostic in her head as she calculated the extent of the damage. Standing up, the more serious machine walked out of the cell room with an annoyed sigh. “Let’s go retrieve her before she causes any more damage.” she said.
Sevens eyes lit up, the overcharged android making her way to the side of the cell door as she punched a code into the barely functioning keypad. Following this, a tile next to the keypad opened up, revealing a small reflective window. The machine reached through the window, her hand passing through the glass like it was jelly, pulling out a small flexible ball. Fitting in the palm of her hand, the ball had a clear rubbery shine to it, containing other much smaller multi-colored balls within it. Fiddling in squishing the orb in her hand, Sevens just smiled as she followed 09 down the hall. “And I thought today’s shift was going to be dull…”
