Advanced Virtual Intelligence - Heraklion - 03-08-2010
Yuka Kaizoku was sitting in the luxury livingroom of her yacht. Seiji-kun could arrive any moment now, she had asked him to come over to talk about his latest invention. From what Yuka seen about it, it could be very useful for the kaizoku gang. Finally someone knocked on the door.
"Enter"
Seiji Akimoto walks in and greets his mistress.
"Take a seat and show me this invention of yours, Seiji-kun."

Advanced Virtual Intelligence - Ryummel - 03-08-2010
Seiji looked around the room: The huge aquarium, the desk, the panoramic windows... Then, he said to himself "Such a waste of money, meh..." He sat on the nearest seat he could see.
"I'm really proud of the efforts I'm putting on the project. Well, I should be honest with you, Yuka-sama... I started working on AvI two years ago... I must have told it you... but I didn't want to take unnecessary risks, meh... Nevermind..."
He was feeling uncomfortable in that place. Seiji knews about Yuka's mood, maybe she could get angry and shoot him on the leg or just... keep listenning.
"As you have seen, AvI could be defined as an aproximation of Artificial Intelligence, but can't think on its own... at the moment... The name is conformed by initials Advanced Virtual Intelligence... I spent a lot of time thinking on it, sounds cool I think *low laugh*"
Seiji took a datapad to read a note.
"Well, it can integrate on small ship computers so it can take control of the vessel in case the pilot got injured and fly it to safe place, it's awesome, don't it? But that's not all: Can monitorize and store data of another vessels, systems they fly on, trade lanes... Of course, I have two backups of AvI's memory, so if it get hacked, I can destroy that hacked module and restore AvI from the backups... Nearly indestructible..."

After Seiji stopped talking, Yuka waits for more. "is this all he has to say?" she thinks. When Seiji remained silent, Yuka cleared her throat.
"So basicly it's some sort of very advanced automatic pilot? It could be really useful of course... I might be interested to provide you with funds to improve this... AVI... is it?"
She suddenly stops talking and looks around.
"I'm thirsty, are you? Yuki-chan! Bring us 2 glasses and a bottle of wine, now!"
The muffled voice of Yuki sounds from the kitchen.
"Hai! Nee-sama."
"Now as I was saying, I might offer you financial support on improving the AVI. And as you see..."
*gestures around the room*
"... Money isn't a problem"
*giggles*

Seiji stared at the aquarium; he could notice a few little crabs and a shoal of fishes.
"Never doubted money would be a problem... Honestly..." Looked at Yuka again.
"In case the money isn't a problem... I could advance to next step... By making a large upgrade in the internal module, AvI would be able to integrate on larger ships computers and... adding a new concept: Cyber-war. This means electromagnetic pulses that switch off trade lanes, ability to hack communications, take down shields... That could be reeeally awesome... isn't it?"
He put the datapad on the pocket.
"So, what do you think? Will you set green light to AvI's project?"

Yuka stares at her glass of wine, "it sure sounds good" she thinks. She looks at Seiji and notices little drops of sweat on his forehead.
"Do I make you feel uncomfortable... Seiji-kun? You look like you're nervous."
She takes another nip from her glass of wine and continues.
"I will allow you to improve this little toy of yours. However..."
Yuka puts her glass down and looks him in the eyes.
"If you waste my money... or my time... You will regret that I ever saved you from the police..."
"You will report the improvements to me as often as possible, do not talk to anyone else about this."
...
Advanced Virtual Intelligence - Ryummel - 03-08-2010
Seiji wiped the sweat and looked with a defiant gesture at Yuka. "The wine isn't good for her" He thought.
"Don't worry about wasting of money, just let me to do my work and we'll have a fully operational artificial intelligence on a short time, Yuka-sama"
Then, he pointed at his glass: "Never said I don't like wine? Just some water, simply..."
...
Advanced Virtual Intelligence - Heraklion - 03-08-2010
Yuka stares at Seiji, she wanted to say something but changed her mind. Instead she answered.
"How rude... now... get off my yacht, we are finished."
Seiji says good night and leaves the ship. Yuka stares at Seiji's untouched glass of wine and smiles.
"A man who can't digest a glass of wine..."
She giggles, kicks out her shoes and lies down on the couch.
"... He's lucky he has talent to invent things..."
She streches and yawns.
"... Otherwise... he would be completely... useless."
She falls asleep.

Two days after the talk, Seiji called Yuka so he could report the recent upgrades on AvI. One hour later, they both were on Seiji's room inside Barrier Gate Station.
"Konnichiwa Yuka-sama, well, I'm not going to waste time, just listen this..."
Seiji typed some codes on the main computer and a female voice sounded.
"AvI is online ... Greetings Seiji Akimoto ... Greetings Yuka Kaizoku"
"Sounds cool, huh? AvI, execute parameter number nine on that laptop computer..."
Seiji pointed at the other corner of the room, where a laptop was turned on and showing some messages.
"Executing parameter 9... Done"
After that, the laptop switched off and made a little explosion.
"Incredible! It means AvI can hack electronic systems and make them collapse! If we use it on a ship computer... would be awesome! Of course it's the same for trade lanes...*Laughs*"
Then Seiji took his datapad and started to read again.
"Yuka-sama, as you've seen, AvI acts in according to a list of parameters, so if I say 'Execute parameter 9 on the objective', AvI will enable its hacking systems... Another example is the parameter number 14, which enables AvI's position tracking system... Well, I've been talking too much, so.. tell me, What do you think?"

Yuka looks around Seiji's room. "It's obvious there isn't a woman around..." she thinks. She focusses back on the AVI.
"I see you have made good use of your time.. and my money... so far."
She stands up and walks to a book shelf and looks at the books.
"However... Time is money... I was hoping you would have made more progress by now."
She walks back to her seat and grabs her coat.
"I hope to see more the next time you report to me."
Yuka walks to the door and opens it, she turns around and points at the book shelf.
"And by the way... stop living in the middle ages... Books? Come on? Seriously?"
*Laughs*
"Sayonara... Seiji-san"
She walks out and closes the door.
Advanced Virtual Intelligence - Ryummel - 03-11-2010
After a hard work day on AvI, Seiji contacted Yuka via private comms. Again, they were on Seiji's room.
"About those books... I prefer reading on paper... Too much time reading the screen of a datapad isn't good... belive me, Yuka-sama"
Seiji switched on the main computer and typed some codes... AvI was online.
"AvI, show us both Coronado and Cortez data you've been tracking"
"Opening files... Done"

"Awesome, huh? Now AvI can monitor, analyze and store data about space systems, trade lanes, ships... Tomorrow I'll start programming the most complex part of this software... I mean, I'm going to make AvI autonomous... but don't worry! It will obey any orders coming from you or me..."
Seiji typed in the main computer's console and switched off AvI.
"So, what do you think?"
