14.5. The human must learn

3rd person pov

Short chapter

A small darkened room was eerily quiet, not a breathing soul had dared interrupted.

However, an unbreathing soul would. Its many fushia eyes had lightly painted over the blackness of the room as it glowed softly. A deep voice breaking the coldness.

"The human is causing issues among Irkens." It spoke, voice echoing throughout the room.

And yet, not a living organism had heard it.

"But the human remains a necessity to our cause" spoke a feminine voice with it's own echo filtered over it.

"And yet, they are still preaching their ridiculous philosophy." Spoke another voice, raspy and hateful as it spat echoey words in disagreement with the masculine voice.

The feminine voice spoke again, at complete agreement with both sides.

"Then perhaps a lesson is due?" It suggested, earning contemplating hums from the other two.

"It cant be too harsh. They are still an essential resource. Perhaps a warning could be initiated." Mentioned the masculine voice, completely devoid of any emotion as it spoke.

The three voices had slowly hummed in agreement. Though their decisions were not to be confirmed.

Each of them had ideas and each of them were fully capable of cooperating with one another. They had dealt with many situations like it in the past.

However, they had never dealt with a species like this before.

Just what limitations did they have? What strengths?

They were all so eager to find out. They hungered for knowledge on the subject and grew more restless at the length of time that was wasted on waiting.

When would their plans be set into motion? How long did they have to wait for?

Not even they knew.

"One way or another," spoke the raspy voice again, "the human must learn."

The emotionless phrase had set up a continuous and repetitive cycle of agreement.

"The human must learn." Repeated the feminine voice, prompting the cycle further.

Then the male voice repeated it too.

"The human must learn."

It was a simple phrase. A phrase that could be said by anyone else and seem as innocent and harmless as Jen.

But when the large machines that ruled Irk had spoken those words, a whole new connotation was built.

It transformed completely.

Now it had become the words spoken by the townsfolk at a witch trial. Or the words spoken by that of a mafia boss who had just been sold out.

They continued to repeat it again and again, almost like they had been absorbed by the sentence completely.

It was just a spring of words that bounced between one control brain to another. And the cycle just kept going, getting faster and faster.

Seemingly coming to a conclusion, the machines had spoke in unison.

"The human must learn."
