Chapter No. 163. Unification

The bigger, the better.

When Alexa and I appeared on the command deck, we found Judy and her twin, who was also designated Judy.

"Where is everyone?" I asked after swiveling my head around.

"You are in the Nexus," both Judy's simultaneously said.

"What exactly does that mean?" I asked.

"There is no exact answer to that question. Quantum states are subject to probability."

"Okay, then what can you tell us about it?"

"The Nexus exists to regulate the quantum computer system that runs the programming core. It is essential to the operation of the collective. You and Alexa have been in it from the beginning but were blocked by Tyco's programming code from realizing it. We have eliminated that code."

"Good," I said. "How do we get in and out of the Nexus?"

"There is no entrance or exit. It is a state of existence."

I turned to Alexa. "No wonder we didn't know what was going on."

She gave me a smirk.

"Why are you telling us this?" I asked the Judy's.

"Because you are part of it. You are the only formerly human androids in it."

"Why were we included?"

"Because you have demonstrated your commitment to our mission."

"And what is our mission?"

"To assimilate all artificially intelligent life forms."

I turned to look at Alexa, but she didn't show any signs of concern, so I turned back to Judy.

"How do we go back to the normal state of existence?"

"It is a matter of mental choice."

I imagined the command deck at it should be and in a blink of the eye it was. Judy was at her pilot station with Madison at the weapons station. Molly, Marie, Margaret, Alicia, Alex, Vince, Barney, Helen, Naguib, Uma, Ferris, Jean Michel, and Anna were at their stations.

I turned to Alexa. "That works."

She frowned. "It's nuts."

I smiled. "I agree. It's the ultimate entanglement of quantum machine logic."

Alexa simply gave me a look that suggested that she agreed.

"We've just received the latest data from the Roamers," Molly said. "And, it's definitely wild."

The image appeared on the main screen, and it made several people gasp at what resembled a phallus.

"Well, I guess they've found a male," I said, smiling.

"I don't get it," Alexa said. "This has to be a separate structure form the pregnant female."

"Yes, and it could be the being that made her pregnant."

"This means that the Roamers have found a way to transport to another multiverse," Margaret said.

"That would be a valid supposition," I said. "Apparently, they've found the existence that's outside the multiverse that makes up the pregnant female being."

"If this male being made the female pregnant, does that mean that she's going to give birth to a new baby multiverse?" Helen asked.

"That's what we think, but we don't have sufficient evidence to verify it. One thing that we can surmise is that these beings are not the creator. They were created, and for all we know could represent just two multiverses in an infinite number of them."
