merged with the web for several minutes, the influx of information shaped Hermes into a humanoid form that utilized forced currents of air to create his sense of touch and ability to handle objects in a manner similar to his human counterpart. Months later Hermes developed the ability to communicate vocally and he mimicked the sounds that he encountered and some of the profanity that we discussed earlier.
Hermes’ ability to eat was also an amazing factor discovered by accident. One afternoon Steven sat down to eat his weekly pizza as Hermes’ stood nearby watching him. Steven pointed to the pizza and asked: “would you like a slice?”
Hermes replied; “Yes, I would!”
He proceeded to sit down, grasp a slice in his “air fingers” and raise it to his mouth and took what looked like a bite. Steven was amazed and discovered later that the food was being broken down in a particle stream inside of Hermes’ mouth and then redeposited in a folder kept inside of his internal database. Every so often Hermes would “dump” the info out of this folder but it was clean and odor free (thankfully!)
Steven attempted to repeat the experiment and create more beings like Hermes but he was not successful. Perhaps Hermes was meant to be the only one and besides – in the wrong hands he could become a powerful weapon. Therefore, Hermes became a companion for Steven and essentially his best friend.
They spent hours together in the simulator chamber strapped into chairs as information, sights, sounds and smells inundated their minds. In the Simulator; Hermes took on a feminine form and the two of them would spend hours dining in the finest restaurants, traveling to exotic locations and shopping after “bumping” into each other at various locations. This is what Steven liked; regardless of where he traveled there would always be a woman interested in him and eager to go out on the town with him. In the simulator Hermes became the companion that Steven lacked in the real world.
After eating, Steven sat back as Hermes absorbed the rest of the pizza in to his “leftovers’ file” for future consumption.
Steven announced; “Let’s do something different today! I’ve had this fantasy…”
Hermes interrupted; “I hope that you’re not thinking of…”
“No Hermes, not that, I need you to help me brainstorm and create a solution to an epidemic that we have been experiencing for years! It seems that humans fail to value the consumer / merchant relationship and they take their customers for granted!”
“Steve, have you been drinking?”
“Just two tablespoons. Hermes, let me finish! My vision is to remove the human equation from customer service. I mean, look at us, I’m a human but I get along better with a being like yourself. Humans are too complicated and rigid in some of their ways. If they’re having a bad day they have to make sure that everyone around them has to have a bad day as well. We don’t say hello to each other anymore, they’ve outlawed hand-shaking…”
“What are you saying? You’re tired of being a human?”
“No, that’s silly – I’m just tired of humans treating other humans like crap solely for their own edification…it’s an epidemic! That SVS girl, that rude pizza guy – we patronize these people and keep them in business while they act as if we’re interrupting their day! What are they there for and why do we need them?”
“So what are we gong to do about it?”
“No idea Hermes, I need to think about this. There has to be a solution! It’s not just a rude girl working behind a counter at the store, it’s more than that. The government has allowed only one chain of stores and one chain of pizza restaurants to service the country and we no longer have a choice. They’ve allowed one church, one fuel company, one automobile…what’s next? And with all of these so-called advances we still have poverty and starvation…”
Steven sprang to his feet causing his chair to topple over. Hermes was curious about this irrational behavior but he’d seen files and documentation on this phenomenon. In Latin it was called non compos mentis which is commonly referred to as insanity. Hermes felt that he had to do something to help Steven because his bio-signs were extremely sporadic.
“Steven, I normally wouldn’t be saying this but maybe you should have a drink…”
“No, Hermes, I’m fed up! The people no longer have a choice in any matters and everything has been left up to the selfishly appointed government agencies with their own one-sided interests. You know who owns SVS and the Pizza Place?”
“Yes, Randolph McGreggor.”
“And who is Randy’s older brother?”
“President Ralph McGreggor!”
Steven was livid as he paced across the kitchen rubbing his head and face vigorously.
Steven began to shout; “You see where I’m coming from Hermes, this has to stop! The President of the United States awarding an exclusive Retail contract to his younger multi-billionaire brother? That should be illegal! I have one drink too many and destroy a construction site and I lose my right to purchase liquor. They purposely manipulate and exploit the taxpayers’ dollars and they get away with it! He should be investigated by the Justice Department – but who runs the Justice Department?”
“The President’s wife…”
“There you go Hermes! This is insane and someone has to stop this! Someone has to stop all of this!”
“And who might that be Steven?”
Hermes’ vocal patterns indicated that he already knew the answer to this question.
Steven replied; “Me! I’m going to start a change. I’m going to start a revolution and bring things back to where they need to be. I’m going to start a Service Revolution!”
