Haunted Nursery 5. The Twin Saviors of Humanity
Pilot: The End of Days
My name is Eric i live in the year 40XXX and as of 300 years ago Humanity is in a state of despair for you see The Robots androids and AI have turned against us they rose up and they’ve started a campaign to destroy all organic life however there is one bastion of light it is called The Sanctum it is a domed off well fortified city that acts as mankind’s only shelter
The Sanctum was Built during the 10 invasion by the rich elites who were more concerned with saving themselves then preserving all of mankind
I live in a hidden location under the ruins of what used to be america i know of a few other survivors that live close by we keep in contact through a series of signal lamps we’ve been able to make a special language and we keep watch for any robots in the area so we know when to hide or move to our shared shelter
It’s not a good life we have to hunt for food most of the time and we don’t have a lot of the basic necessities that our descendants used to have but we make due with what we have
I hear there are some hidden communities that have resorted to cannibalism and that’s terrifying occasionally we will see them walking through our region we mostly hide when they come around for some odd reason they like to whistle wherever they go so they are pretty easy to spot
Besides me there are four other people i coexist with first their is Maddy her mother just passed away recently she’s dealing with the loss rather well nowadays she’s actually more determined to survive
Next we have Shep and Reggi they are two brothers who do most of the hunting they actually have two dogs that help them out a lot they tell me that one of their Dogs is pregnant and there will be puppies soon and honestly i’m incredibly excited
Laster there is a Girl named Jewel her parents got taken by the Machines when she was three and we’ve all been taking care of her and she’s grown into a smart and wonderful young lady she turned eighteen last year and she has her own base near the creek
That’s basically all of us we are basically a Family and we greatly support each other we pretty much have too since Humans need each other to survive and all
But i truly wish we could live a life free from fear
As of right now i’m surveying the land from my lookout point it’s an abandoned mall it also serves as our emergency Shelter it’s the highest point in the region and is incredibly big with plenty of places to hunker down and hide
But that’s besides the point right now i’m using a telescope to search for any patrols the Androids have made a base 200 miles south from here and they do regular patrols first they’ll send drones and 3 days later they will send a team of foot soldiers to do an advanced sweep
The foot soldiers will basically copy the same path as the drone and the sweep will last for two days i keep the others informed of the Paths they take and i let my friends know if they need to evacuate or not that’s my main role
Soon my day comes to a close and i make my way through the mall to the ground floor then i make my way back to my base my base is located in the ruins of a mega church i have a lot of traps set up in here so it’s well fortified
I avoid all my traps and make my way to my loft and i go to my signal lamp i then begin to share my intel with my family it takes a while but soon they all get the message and i begin to relax i look in my cupboard and their isn’t much looks like i’m going to bed hungry
I make myself comfortable on my sofa and begin to relax soon i’m asleep and then i’m awoken by the sound of one of my traps going off this sends me into a panic i grab my shotgun and try to prepare myself for the fight of my life i make my way to the second floor and i survey the area it seems like they haven’t made it to this floor yet the second floor has three different exits leading to the ground floor and depending on witch of my traps go off i’ll know witch staircase they are coming through
I wait for about twenty minutes and then i hear the sound of glass shattering meaning they are coming from the the Western staircase i slowly begin to make my way to the southern staircase
As i make my way i hear another sound this one being the sound of cymbals meaning they were headed up the southern staircase i quickly start to panic and run for cover 5 seconds later a group of Androids make their way up the stairs my heart starts to race and my breathing begins to go crazy
I quickly begin to take control of my breathing by focusing my mind on what’s important and that is my family they truly rely on me and if i fail now who would guide them with that positive thought in mind i survey their movements they seen to be searching for the person who set the traps my heart starts to freeze as they fan out
These are basic Soldier units meaning they won’t use their advanced detection Functions until they find definitive signs of organic life i take a shallow breath and look around the room and i wait a few seconds before moving soon i’m on the move towards the eastern staircase as i’m stealthing through the second floor i hear something weird it’s a sound i’ve never heard before and it’s enough to shake the entire building what could it be
The Staircase is close but as i get close i hear the worst sound in the world i turn around and see an Android his eyes a deep red and my heart starts to race soon the Android gets on all fours and starts to chase me like a wild dog
I then start to run for the staircase i’m barely able to make it when i get to the stairwell i block the door then i begin to hurry down the steps soon i hear the Androids on the ground floor begin to charge for the ground floor entrance and i ready my shotgun but then i hear another strange sound and i see a streak of light fly across the doorway i stop dead in my tracks peeking from the door way what i see is people in all black suites with helmets covering their heads they are holding strange looking guns and they are actively fighting the Androids
I’m honestly not sure what to make of this the way these men in black seem to be against the Androids but that begs the question are they even Human
Soon i hear the door on the second floor bust open and my feet act before i can even think i run out and bump into one of the men in black
Man in black: hold fire Set weapon lethality to 50% power Human Detected i repeat Human Detected i repeat Human Detected
Man in Black: hey Bud hurry behind us now!
Without a moment of hesitation i hurry behind the Men in black they soon form a wall around me and begin to fire at all the Androids coming from the Second floor i watch in awe as
The Androids are quickly put out of commission by their Weapons when it’s over one of the Men comes over to me and removes his helmet
Falcon: Hey there bud my name is Falcon i’m the leader of this team we came here looking for any fellow Humans in need of rescue can i please know your name?
Eric: My name is Eric and who are you guys?
Falcon: we are a the 12th rescue team we work for Nidum an Organization that wishes to save and protect Humanity
Eric: i haven’t heard of you are you apart of The Sanctum
Falcon: hehe no we do not Support the Sanctum’s beliefs we want to protect those that the Elites of The Sanctum have ignored so are you willing to come with us?
Eric: can my family come too…
Falcon then placed his hand on my head and ruffled my hair nodding his head it felt really weird but kind of good as well Falcon put his helmet back on and his team led me outside to a weird vehicle Falcon called it the Alabaster Albatross
It looked really cool he said it could fly through the air similar to the machines the Androids use
But Falcon also explained that it’s more akin to a Plane whatever that is when we got onboard it was like something out of a dream there was row after row of seats Falcon asked me to a room called the cockpit and asked me where my family was located
I was able to guide them and soon Jewel Maddy Shep Reggi and even their dogs were all resting safely on the Alabaster Albatross there was a lot to do on it their was a lounge that served food and their was a Device called a TV it showed really amazing things
Their was also a whole room devoted to medical purposes we were able to get Shep and Reggies dogs checked out they are going to have three puppies and at the very end of the Albatross was an entire room devoted to sleeping and bathing they also had rooms called showers it’s absolutely amazing my shower was so nice i prefer cold showers though as
We were enjoying ourselves there was another Person guiding us her name was Owlet she had long white hair and wore a beautiful white Dress that looked very professional
Owlet was really nice she reminded me of my Mother and Maddy felt the same way Owlet told us we were going to Nidum HQ
It was located to the far North we would be arriving in three days that was truly the best part of this we would finally be safe from the machines
My family and i enjoyed the three days of bliss then one morning Owlet had woken us up she happily told us that we had arrived at Nidum
We were all excited to see Nidum Owlet led us out of the Alabaster Albatross and into a place called a Lobby it was well decorated and cool soon we were greeted by 20 yea old man his hair was longer than Owlets and he was wearing a fluffy looking sweater with black tan colored jeans his eyes were mystic shade of blue he smiled and said
Swen: hello everyone on behalf of Nidum’s chairmen i welcome you to paradise i am Swen my Father runs this wonderful sanctuary and i’ll be guiding you to the residential area please follow me
Swen led us to the connecting room and i thought we would be traveling down a flight of stairs but no instead we entered a strange room that moved on it’s own Swen said it was an Elevator he even told us how it worked something about utilizing antigravity technology
Soon the sliding door opens revealing a whole neighborhood it’s built like a community there are no ruins perfect buildings everything looks like a dream come true Swen soon shows us to our building on the inside there are rooms for all of us
Swen then told us that there was a park and a plaza with several places to eat we were over the moon Swen showed us the entire place he said it was called the Shelter and i thought the name was inaccurate because the Shelter we used to live in was a total dump this was like Heaven
Surely this will be a new beginning for us
=====================
=============
=========
Eric’s POV
It’s been two months since we came to Nidum and life is great Swen comes by often and teaches us new things Swen is incredibly kind he taught us all how to read and write it’s a whole new system and it’s amazing
Swen is also teaching us new hobbies i’ve taken to painting Truly Swen is an angel
But it is odd Swen told us that Nidum is still looking for other Humans to rescue but it’s been two months and there is no one else i think it’s odd i’ve tried to bring it up with Swen but he shrugs it off saying it’s not our concern
Right now i’m jogging around the park with the Dogs oh i should probably tell you their names Shep and Reggi’ss two dogs are named Elly she’s a German Shepard and Sebastion he’s a Rottweiler these two are such a loving pair
Their Puppies are named Rose Sean and Zed Swen was nice enough to teach us how to train them we got these dogs doing all sorts of tricks and walking around the park with them is the best part of my day
As we finished our jog we stop at the watering fountain and i give these good puppers a nice cold drink of water and i get a drink too i then let the dogs off the leash so they can play and i watch them it’s really nice to see them have fun soon i hear footsteps on the grass i turn around and see Swen in that same comfy sweater
Swen: hey Eric having a good jog?
Eric: of course it’s always a good jog here
Swen: i’m happy you like it here i just wanted to give this too you
Swen then hands me a plastic bottle of soda
Eric: huh what’s this?
Swen: you just learned how to read you tell me
Eric: Regressionaid? Huh what does that word mean?
Swen: it means to taste of fruit give it a try it’s something i just threw together
I undo the cap and give the drink a taste it’s actually pretty good though it does have a interesting after taste
Swen: so what do you think?
Eric: it’s good but that after taste is really bad
Swen: hehe i’ll get to work on that anyway i just wanted to drop that off bye!!!!
Swen then began to walk off i brought the dogs home and brought them inside i soon ran into Maddy she was reading some of the books Swen had left she was also Drinking the Regressionaid i walked over to her and said
Eric: hey Maddy witch book is that?
Maddy: it’s called Romeo and Juliet it’s an amazing story and i adore it
Maddy then began to explain the entire story to me and it does sound amazing
Soon i see Shep and Reggi walk into the living room they turn on the TV and begin watching a show i quickly join them and then i hear Jewel calling Maddy from Upstairs the day goes by pretty uneventfully and by 5 we all became incredibly tired we all went to bed without eating it was the oddest thing
But before succumbing to sleep i heard something it was a song it was really soothing but then i was out like a light
I awoke to something covering my eyes and i think i was bound to a table because i felt straps around my body waist legs and arms something rubbery was in my mouth and it was vibrating i turned my head and discovered that there was something on my ears everything was completely silent it was absolutely strange
I then heard a voice it was that serene gentle and angelic voice i had come to love it was Swen
Swen’s Voice: la la le le le la la……
Swen’s voice: oh how are my chickadee’s today? Hmm Eric’s Regression is proceeding wonderfully let’s check on Maddy….
Swen’s Voice: hmm looks like Maddy might need extra time maybe i should get Crow to increase the Dosage but what of my Twin Chickadees?
Swen’s Voice: hmm these two seem like they’re almost ready to leave the Cradle but Crow would get angry with me if let them leave early he always says it’s best to let them over cook hehe but this is our first batch i hope he’s right
Swen’s Voice: Now then little Jewel oh my this Young Chickadee’s Regression is proceeding at quite an alarming rate there must be some trauma inside this Poor Chickadee oh dear don’t worry Hun Papa Swan is going to make it all better….
Papa Swan? Who is Swan and what is Regression anyway what is happening to us did Swen want us for experimentation what was happening and what is this strange warm feeling between my legs what is this
My mind began to race with what all this could be about but then i began to feel drowsy all of a sudden it was strange but yet so calming as i slipped into unconsciousness i heard that strange music again it was the same one Swen was singing only more instrumental it was really nice and like that i was blissfully sleeping
Jewel’s POV
Mmm i wake up to the sunlight coming through my window i look up and see pretty birdy pictures on the ceiling i rubbed the sleepies from my eyes and let out a yawn wait something seems odd i look down at my clothing and see that i’m wearing a purple thingy and there's something weird in my mouth
I pull the weird thing out of my mouth and hold it in my hand what is it soon i hear a door open i look to the door and see a man with short black hair and red eyes he’s not wearing a shirt and has Black sweatpants on who is he
He smiles at me and comes over i then take notice that i’m sitting in a white cage without a top
Soon the man is looking down at me and smiles warmly
Daddy: hey there Chickadee, how's Daddy’s baby girl doing?
Oh yeah that’s right this is Daddy i happily raise my arms up wanting to be held Daddy smiles and picks me up and gives me a kiss on the head Daddy then places me on his Shoulder and rubs my back
Daddy: hmmm it seems my baby Girl has a stinky tushy let’s get her all fresh then we can get her fed
I happily start to babble as Daddy takes me over to a table he lays me on it and he pulls a strap over my tummy i watch as Daddy smiles and does something Daddy looks to me and smiles before his eyes begin to flash and a mobile comes down from the ceiling and starts to spin it steals my attention
I soon place my fingers in my maw after a few moments Daddy scoops me up and hugs me i smile and hide my face in the crook of Daddy’s neck his scent was really weird it was kinda fruity yet weird at the same time but there is something soothing about it
Daddy soon sits in the Father chair and wraps his arms around me as i lay on my side against his chest
Daddy: ok Chickadee we are going to have a little quiet time until Papa comes by to take you for num nums
Daddy begins to hum a song and i think he’s getting a little warmer because i’m feeling really cozy as i listen to Daddy hum i slowly begin to close my eyes and just let Daddy hold me he’s really nice soon i hear the door open and i begin to whine
I wanna stay with Daddy!
Daddy: hey Jewel Papa is here!
Jewel: No wan stay if Daddy
Papa: oh hun that hurts my feelings
When i hear Papa say that i get really upset i look up to him and see his pretty Blue eyes
Jewel: me sowwy Papa!
I began to reach for him and Papa picks me up his sweater is really fluffy i smile begin to nuzzle into it i then see Papa’s pretty white hair i start reaching for it when i finally do get some and i give a curious coo tilting my head and pulling on it
Papa: Jewel be gentle Papa’s hair is really delicate
I keep tugging soon Papa let’s out a huge sigh and begins walking i start to enjoy pulling Papa’s hair soon we’re in a new room and Papa places me in a high chair i still have papa’s hair in my hand
Soon Papa’s eyes glow blue and square hole in the table begins to open up and a bowl of yucky green food comes up Papa then takes his hair back from me and i whine loudly
Papa: i know hun my hair is really fun but you need to eat Chickadee
Papa then takes a spoon full of the green mush and puts it too my lips i whine and cross my arms and turn my head away
Papa: oh hun come on it’s yummy here i’ll try
I look at Papa intently as he puts the spoon to his mouth and eats it after a few moments Papa’s face turns green and he makes the funniest face ever i can’t help but laugh
Papa: well i’m glad one of us is having fun how about we change up the entree
Papa’s eyes flash again and the yucky food begins to sink back down and it’s replaced with a purple bowl filled with pretty sparkly mush
But when Papa puts a spoon full to my lips i don’t open my mouth i just look to him and Papa looks confused
Papa: Chickadee what’s wrong this time
Jewel: wan Papa’s har!
I say as i make grabby hands for it Papa lets out a huff and gives me a lock of his Hair i then open my mouth and let Papa feed me it tastes really yummy soon Papa continues the process till all the food is gone and i let out a satisfied sigh
Papa then takes me out of the high chair and takes me over to a series of rocking chairs and cradles me then he reaches for a prepared bottle and puts it to my lips i open wide and begin to suckle on the sweet creamy milk i began to rub Papa’s strand of hair in my hand it’s really soft and shiny
Papa began to hum a song that was really pretty it was like Daddy’s song but this one was softer and more peaceful in a way i wanted to fall asleep right then and their but something was keeping me awake i just didn’t know what
Papa soon pulled the bottle away from me and placed a paci in my mouth Papa then stood up and walked out of the room i just hid my face in the crook of Papa’s neck and took in his scent
It was just as weird as Daddy’s but it kinda reminded me of vanilla
Why do Papa and Daddy have such weird smells hmm papa soon stepped into a new room i looked around and saw that we were in a new room it was white with a lot of fluffy birdy stuffies
Papa soon placed me on the soft carpet and i looked up at him i was unsure what to do Papa simply chuckled and took me over to the stuffies
Papa then sat on the floor with me and we started to play with the stuffies Papa was really fun and he gave such warm cuddles too he was also really gentle
As Papa and i were playing the door opened i looked to it and saw a new person they were dressed in a really pretty white dress with a veil wrapped around their arms they had yellowish white hair that looked just as long as Papa’s hair
Their eyes were a paler blue compared to Papa’s and they had strange slender marks under their eyes
Stranger: Maître Swan i have come to let you know that the Cradle is empty and the Chickadees have been moved to Nursery A-4
Papa: thank you Dove you may return to your other duties
Dove: yes my Maître
I turned to Papa and asked
Jewel: Papa who Dat!
Papa: that’s Dove my little Chickadee now let’s go get you ready for nap time
Jewel: but me no tired
Papa: but Chickadee i’m tired and i don’t want to nap alone can you please nap with me
Jewel: otay Papa needs rest
Papa then picked me up and took me to a cozy looking room with a big couch Papa sat on the couch with me on his lap Papa wrapped his arms around me and wrapped a blanket around both of us the lights began to dim down and light came on that put stars on the ceiling it was really pretty and unique
Laying on Papa’s sweater was like laying on an incredibly soft pillow it was really cozy i hope Papa can get some sleep he deserves it because he’s the best soon i hear Papa snoring and i do the same
I love Papa and Daddy they are the best
Maddy’s POV
I woke up from a nightmare in a strange dark place i wanted to be held i wanted to be warm and there’s this icky feeling i laid there crying my head off soon the lights came on and i heard someone come close
????: hey what’s wrong Chickadee oh i see someone’s pamp leaked out oh dear
I was then lifted up from my armpits and i was brought into a warm embrace i was still crying but being in this person’s embrace was a little calming
I was then pulled away from the warm embrace and placed on something really cozy but i wanted to be held i wanted warmth but more importantly i wanted this icky feeling to go away
I was screaming as loud as i could kicking my legs angrily soon i felt something being pushed into my mouth my tongue gave it a few pokes and it tasted sweet a little bit soon i began to suckle on it and i slowly began to calm down
????: there we go now let’s sort out your soaking pamp little Chickadee
I soon felt the person doing something then the Icky feeling went away and was replaced by a gentle fluttery feeling i then began to wipe the tears from my eyes and i looked up at the person he had pretty white hair and was wearing a fluffy sweater he looked towards me and smiled
I just tilted my head
White haired man: hello little Chickadee you feeling better now that your out of that icky pamp?
Maddy: goo?
White haired man: Hmm looks like someone lost their ability to speak huh? Well don’t worry little Chickadee Papa’s gonna make it all better
So this is Papa i turned my head and began suckling on the thing in my mouth it was really nummy soon the Papa picked me up and took me over to a wardrobe i was placed on a fluffy bed and Papa picked out a pink and white onesie for me and he dressed me in it the onesie had a matching hood and it was really cozy Papa also put blue and white long striped socks on my feet Papa held me close and i nuzzled into him i liked his fluffy sweater and i nuzzled against it
Papa soon took me out of the room and took me to another room this one had a big fluffy carpet Papa put a small rug on the floor and laid me on it with my tummy towards the floor i let out a happy coo because the rug was just as cozy as Papa’s sweater i happy kicked my legs out happily enjoying the warmth
Papa: i can’t wait for Daddy to see you Maddy he’s gonna be so happy to see you getting accustomed to your new life
When Papa said that i was starting to get worried Daddy might be mean and scary i didn’t know him i only knew Papa and Papa was super warm and nice what if Daddy was mean soon i heard the door open and i became completely still
????: oh is that Maddy looking adorable on the rug i see
Papa: you know it Crow
I soon felt myself being picked up and i get turned around to see a man with red eyes and short black straight hair he was smiling but something in me was scared i started to tear up and eventually i broke out in tears screaming at the top of my lungs
Crow placed me on his shoulder and started to rub my back and i was thrashing i didn’t want anything to do with him
Papa soon came to my rescue and held me and placed me on his shoulder and began to rub my back i was whimpering
Papa: shh shh it’s ok Chickadee Papa is here for you
Crow: mmm well four out of five ain’t bad
Papa: yeah it’s not bad at all and give it some time i’m sure Maddy will warm up to you
Papa and Crow soon sat on the couch and i soon started to fall asleep in Papa’s arms when i woke up Papa and Crow were talking and i was getting hungry i soon started to whine and fuss Papa and Crow soon stopped talking and Papa started to shh shh me after a few moments Papa moved me so i was being cradled and Papa put a bottle to my lips and i began to suckle on it
I keep my eyes closed and focus on my bottle Papa and Crow start talking again and honestly i don’t want Papa talking to crow but for the moment i’ll allow it Papa seems to really like Crow for some reason
When i’m finished with the bottle i begin to fuss a bit feeling uncomfortable Papa then moves me to where i’m facing him and puts my head over his shoulder and starts to pat my back and i let out a loud burp and a bit of spit up
I felt so much better afterwards and put my thumb in my mouth and begin to let out a satisfied coo
Papa: what a good girl you are now then why don’t we give you some more tummy time just for a bit
Papa then placed me back on the warm rug and i let out a approving coo because the rug is still so warm and feels good on my tummy
Papa and Crow go back to talking and i was starting to get annoyed by it but i was also getting sleepy soon my eyes betrayed me and i was sleeping on the warm rug letting out soft snores
Reggi’s POV
I was slowly waking up from nap time i lifted myself up and began rubbing my eyes i crawled over to the mesh pen wall and used it to prop myself up the nap time room had a cloud design and the pen had a soft flooring i looked back to where i was sleeping and i was sleeping on a flat cushion colored like a nest it even had a blanky
I looked around and saw Shep he was still sleeping and i was getting bored i got back on the floor and began crawling around looking for something to do i played with the stuffy for a bit and began to cuddle him he was a soft yellow ducky i loved cuddling my ducky
Soon the lights slowly began to come on and i saw Daddy he looked so happy and he wasn’t wearing a shirt i smiled and began to get excited because it was bonding time
Daddy: hello Shep it’s your turn today
Daddy opened the pen and came over and scooped me up and took me over to the rocking chair in the corner his eyes began to flash and my onesie completely melted faded away i then felt Daddy’s bare skin against mine and i closed my eyes and enjoyed the moment
Daddy wrapped his arms around me and held me close i heard Daddy’s heart beat it was gentle and steady Daddy then began to humm a song
Daddy’s muscles were strong yet comfortable to lay on it was like laying on a firm warm pillow i soon fell back asleep and i felt Daddy stroking my hair
I felt like i was getting closer to Daddy the more time i spent with him like this Daddy’s so warm and strong and he really loves me and Shep Daddy is the best Daddy in the whole world
Soon my consciousness began to slip away and i began to enter a really deep sleep
I then woke up with a big yawn and stretch and i rubbed the sleepies from my eyes i heard Shep and i think Papa i opened my eyes and found myself laying on one of those special rugs i looked around and saw Papa having Daddy Time with Shep we were in the cozy room and i wanted to have Daddy Time too
I crawled over to Papa and Shep and Papa smiled at me
Papa: hey there Reggi how are you
Reggi: dada time?
Papa: hehehehe ok hun we can have Daddy Time
Papa walked over to a closet and got another play mat and laid it beside Shep and i quickly came over and laid on it Papa then sat on his knees at our feet and he began to tickle us and make funny faces he even made funny noises
Shep and i were giggling happily and laughing so hard papa was fun he then grabbed some stuffies and began to make them move around with funny sound effects
This was the best day ever soon the door opened and Daddy looked towards it and both me and Shep looked as well and we saw Daddy and he was holding Babas
He had a big smile on his face
Daddy: it’s bottle time for these two
Papa: I'll take Shep, you take Reggi?
Daddy: of course
Daddy picked me up and Papa picked up Shep they walked over to the couch and they sat us in their laps and then they gave us bottles Shep and i suckled down the Bottles slowly and carefully
Papa and Daddy started talking
Papa: so is it safe to say that we have a routine down?
Daddy: for Humans yes Cynth Humans and other Androids though are a whole new challenge
Papa: I see well, are you still working on your new toy?
Daddy: hehe yeah but it’s still in the experimental phase though it needs to have a few more kinks worked out
Papa: well please be quick about it i want to bring some more Chickadees in here

Next we have Shep and Reggi they are two brothers who do most of the hunting they actually have two dogs that help them out a lot they tell me that one of their Dogs is pregnant and there will be puppies soon and honestly i’m incredibly excited
Laster there is a Girl named Jewel her parents got taken by the Machines when she was three and we’ve all been taking care of her and she’s grown into a smart and wonderful young lady she turned eighteen last year and she has her own base near the creek
That’s basically all of us we are basically a Family and we greatly support each other we pretty much have too since Humans need each other to survive and all
But i truly wish we could live a life free from fear
As of right now i’m surveying the land from my lookout point it’s an abandoned mall it also serves as our emergency Shelter it’s the highest point in the region and is incredibly big with plenty of places to hunker down and hide
But that’s besides the point right now i’m using a telescope to search for any patrols the Androids have made a base 200 miles south from here and they do regular patrols first they’ll send drones and 3 days later they will send a team of foot soldiers to do an advanced sweep
The foot soldiers will basically copy the same path as the drone and the sweep will last for two days i keep the others informed of the Paths they take and i let my friends know if they need to evacuate or not that’s my main role
Soon my day comes to a close and i make my way through the mall to the ground floor then i make my way back to my base my base is located in the ruins of a mega church i have a lot of traps set up in here so it’s well fortified
I avoid all my traps and make my way to my loft and i go to my signal lamp i then begin to share my intel with my family it takes a while but soon they all get the message and i begin to relax i look in my cupboard and their isn’t much looks like i’m going to bed hungry
I make myself comfortable on my sofa and begin to relax soon i’m asleep and then i’m awoken by the sound of one of my traps going off this sends me into a panic i grab my shotgun and try to prepare myself for the fight of my life i make my way to the second floor and i survey the area it seems like they haven’t made it to this floor yet the second floor has three different exits leading to the ground floor and depending on witch of my traps go off i’ll know witch staircase they are coming through
I wait for about twenty minutes and then i hear the sound of glass shattering meaning they are coming from the the Western staircase i slowly begin to make my way to the southern staircase
As i make my way i hear another sound this one being the sound of cymbals meaning they were headed up the southern staircase i quickly start to panic and run for cover 5 seconds later a group of Androids make their way up the stairs my heart starts to race and my breathing begins to go crazy
I quickly begin to take control of my breathing by focusing my mind on what’s important and that is my family they truly rely on me and if i fail now who would guide them with that positive thought in mind i survey their movements they seen to be searching for the person who set the traps my heart starts to freeze as they fan out
These are basic Soldier units meaning they won’t use their advanced detection Functions until they find definitive signs of organic life i take a shallow breath and look around the room and i wait a few seconds before moving soon i’m on the move towards the eastern staircase as i’m stealthing through the second floor i hear something weird it’s a sound i’ve never heard before and it’s enough to shake the entire building what could it be
The Staircase is close but as i get close i hear the worst sound in the world i turn around and see an Android his eyes a deep red and my heart starts to race soon the Android gets on all fours and starts to chase me like a wild dog
I then start to run for the staircase i’m barely able to make it when i get to the stairwell i block the door then i begin to hurry down the steps soon i hear the Androids on the ground floor begin to charge for the ground floor entrance and i ready my shotgun but then i hear another strange sound and i see a streak of light fly across the doorway i stop dead in my tracks peeking from the door way what i see is people in all black suites with helmets covering their heads they are holding strange looking guns and they are actively fighting the Androids
I’m honestly not sure what to make of this the way these men in black seem to be against the Androids but that begs the question are they even Human
Soon i hear the door on the second floor bust open and my feet act before i can even think i run out and bump into one of the men in black
Man in black: hold fire Set weapon lethality to 50% power Human Detected i repeat Human Detected i repeat Human Detected
Man in Black: hey Bud hurry behind us now!
Without a moment of hesitation i hurry behind the Men in black they soon form a wall around me and begin to fire at all the Androids coming from the Second floor i watch in awe as
The Androids are quickly put out of commission by their Weapons when it’s over one of the Men comes over to me and removes his helmet
Falcon: Hey there bud my name is Falcon i’m the leader of this team we came here looking for any fellow Humans in need of rescue can i please know your name?
Eric: My name is Eric and who are you guys?
Falcon: we are a the 12th rescue team we work for Nidum an Organization that wishes to save and protect Humanity
Eric: i haven’t heard of you are you apart of The Sanctum
Falcon: hehe no we do not Support the Sanctum’s beliefs we want to protect those that the Elites of The Sanctum have ignored so are you willing to come with us?
Eric: can my family come too…
Falcon then placed his hand on my head and ruffled my hair nodding his head it felt really weird but kind of good as well Falcon put his helmet back on and his team led me outside to a weird vehicle Falcon called it the Alabaster Albatross
It looked really cool he said it could fly through the air similar to the machines the Androids use
But Falcon also explained that it’s more akin to a Plane whatever that is when we got onboard it was like something out of a dream there was row after row of seats Falcon asked me to a room called the cockpit and asked me where my family was located
I was able to guide them and soon Jewel Maddy Shep Reggi and even their dogs were all resting safely on the Alabaster Albatross there was a lot to do on it their was a lounge that served food and their was a Device called a TV it showed really amazing things
Their was also a whole room devoted to medical purposes we were able to get Shep and Reggies dogs checked out they are going to have three puppies and at the very end of the Albatross was an entire room devoted to sleeping and bathing they also had rooms called showers it’s absolutely amazing my shower was so nice i prefer cold showers though as
We were enjoying ourselves there was another Person guiding us her name was Owlet she had long white hair and wore a beautiful white Dress that looked very professional
Owlet was really nice she reminded me of my Mother and Maddy felt the same way Owlet told us we were going to Nidum HQ
It was located to the far North we would be arriving in three days that was truly the best part of this we would finally be safe from the machines
My family and i enjoyed the three days of bliss then one morning Owlet had woken us up she happily told us that we had arrived at Nidum
We were all excited to see Nidum Owlet led us out of the Alabaster Albatross and into a place called a Lobby it was well decorated and cool soon we were greeted by 20 yea old man his hair was longer than Owlets and he was wearing a fluffy looking sweater with black tan colored jeans his eyes were mystic shade of blue he smiled and said
Swen: hello everyone on behalf of Nidum’s chairmen i welcome you to paradise i am Swen my Father runs this wonderful sanctuary and i’ll be guiding you to the residential area please follow me
Swen led us to the connecting room and i thought we would be traveling down a flight of stairs but no instead we entered a strange room that moved on it’s own Swen said it was an Elevator he even told us how it worked something about utilizing antigravity technology
Soon the sliding door opens revealing a whole neighborhood it’s built like a community there are no ruins perfect buildings everything looks like a dream come true Swen soon shows us to our building on the inside there are rooms for all of us
Swen then told us that there was a park and a plaza with several places to eat we were over the moon Swen showed us the entire place he said it was called the Shelter and i thought the name was inaccurate because the Shelter we used to live in was a total dump this was like Heaven
Surely this will be a new beginning for us
=====================

Eric’s POV
It’s been two months since we came to Nidum and life is great Swen comes by often and teaches us new things Swen is incredibly kind he taught us all how to read and write it’s a whole new system and it’s amazing
Swen is also teaching us new hobbies i’ve taken to painting Truly Swen is an angel
But it is odd Swen told us that Nidum is still looking for other Humans to rescue but it’s been two months and there is no one else i think it’s odd i’ve tried to bring it up with Swen but he shrugs it off saying it’s not our concern
Right now i’m jogging around the park with the Dogs oh i should probably tell you their names Shep and Reggi’ss two dogs are named Elly she’s a German Shepard and Sebastion he’s a Rottweiler these two are such a loving pair
Their Puppies are named Rose Sean and Zed Swen was nice enough to teach us how to train them we got these dogs doing all sorts of tricks and walking around the park with them is the best part of my day
As we finished our jog we stop at the watering fountain and i give these good puppers a nice cold drink of water and i get a drink too i then let the dogs off the leash so they can play and i watch them it’s really nice to see them have fun soon i hear footsteps on the grass i turn around and see Swen in that same comfy sweater
Swen: hey Eric having a good jog?
Eric: of course it’s always a good jog here
Swen: i’m happy you like it here i just wanted to give this too you
Swen then hands me a plastic bottle of soda
Eric: huh what’s this?
Swen: you just learned how to read you tell me
Eric: Regressionaid? Huh what does that word mean?
Swen: it means to taste of fruit give it a try it’s something i just threw together
I undo the cap and give the drink a taste it’s actually pretty good though it does have a interesting after taste
Swen: so what do you think?
Eric: it’s good but that after taste is really bad
Swen: hehe i’ll get to work on that anyway i just wanted to drop that off bye!!!!
Swen then began to walk off i brought the dogs home and brought them inside i soon ran into Maddy she was reading some of the books Swen had left she was also Drinking the Regressionaid i walked over to her and said
Eric: hey Maddy witch book is that?
Maddy: it’s called Romeo and Juliet it’s an amazing story and i adore it
Maddy then began to explain the entire story to me and it does sound amazing
Soon i see Shep and Reggi walk into the living room they turn on the TV and begin watching a show i quickly join them and then i hear Jewel calling Maddy from Upstairs the day goes by pretty uneventfully and by 5 we all became incredibly tired we all went to bed without eating it was the oddest thing
But before succumbing to sleep i heard something it was a song it was really soothing but then i was out like a light
I awoke to something covering my eyes and i think i was bound to a table because i felt straps around my body waist legs and arms something rubbery was in my mouth and it was vibrating i turned my head and discovered that there was something on my ears everything was completely silent it was absolutely strange
I then heard a voice it was that serene gentle and angelic voice i had come to love it was Swen
Swen’s Voice: la la le le le la la……
Swen’s voice: oh how are my chickadee’s today? Hmm Eric’s Regression is proceeding wonderfully let’s check on Maddy….
Swen’s Voice: hmm looks like Maddy might need extra time maybe i should get Crow to increase the Dosage but what of my Twin Chickadees?
Swen’s Voice: hmm these two seem like they’re almost ready to leave the Cradle but Crow would get angry with me if let them leave early he always says it’s best to let them over cook hehe but this is our first batch i hope he’s right
Swen’s Voice: Now then little Jewel oh my this Young Chickadee’s Regression is proceeding at quite an alarming rate there must be some trauma inside this Poor Chickadee oh dear don’t worry Hun Papa Swan is going to make it all better….
Papa Swan? Who is Swan and what is Regression anyway what is happening to us did Swen want us for experimentation what was happening and what is this strange warm feeling between my legs what is this
My mind began to race with what all this could be about but then i began to feel drowsy all of a sudden it was strange but yet so calming as i slipped into unconsciousness i heard that strange music again it was the same one Swen was singing only more instrumental it was really nice and like that i was blissfully sleeping
Jewel’s POV
Mmm i wake up to the sunlight coming through my window i look up and see pretty birdy pictures on the ceiling i rubbed the sleepies from my eyes and let out a yawn wait something seems odd i look down at my clothing and see that i’m wearing a purple thingy and there's something weird in my mouth
I pull the weird thing out of my mouth and hold it in my hand what is it soon i hear a door open i look to the door and see a man with short black hair and red eyes he’s not wearing a shirt and has Black sweatpants on who is he
He smiles at me and comes over i then take notice that i’m sitting in a white cage without a top
Soon the man is looking down at me and smiles warmly
Daddy: hey there Chickadee, how's Daddy’s baby girl doing?
Oh yeah that’s right this is Daddy i happily raise my arms up wanting to be held Daddy smiles and picks me up and gives me a kiss on the head Daddy then places me on his Shoulder and rubs my back
Daddy: hmmm it seems my baby Girl has a stinky tushy let’s get her all fresh then we can get her fed
I happily start to babble as Daddy takes me over to a table he lays me on it and he pulls a strap over my tummy i watch as Daddy smiles and does something Daddy looks to me and smiles before his eyes begin to flash and a mobile comes down from the ceiling and starts to spin it steals my attention
I soon place my fingers in my maw after a few moments Daddy scoops me up and hugs me i smile and hide my face in the crook of Daddy’s neck his scent was really weird it was kinda fruity yet weird at the same time but there is something soothing about it
Daddy soon sits in the Father chair and wraps his arms around me as i lay on my side against his chest
Daddy: ok Chickadee we are going to have a little quiet time until Papa comes by to take you for num nums
Daddy begins to hum a song and i think he’s getting a little warmer because i’m feeling really cozy as i listen to Daddy hum i slowly begin to close my eyes and just let Daddy hold me he’s really nice soon i hear the door open and i begin to whine
I wanna stay with Daddy!
Daddy: hey Jewel Papa is here!
Jewel: No wan stay if Daddy
Papa: oh hun that hurts my feelings
When i hear Papa say that i get really upset i look up to him and see his pretty Blue eyes
Jewel: me sowwy Papa!
I began to reach for him and Papa picks me up his sweater is really fluffy i smile begin to nuzzle into it i then see Papa’s pretty white hair i start reaching for it when i finally do get some and i give a curious coo tilting my head and pulling on it
Papa: Jewel be gentle Papa’s hair is really delicate
I keep tugging soon Papa let’s out a huge sigh and begins walking i start to enjoy pulling Papa’s hair soon we’re in a new room and Papa places me in a high chair i still have papa’s hair in my hand
Soon Papa’s eyes glow blue and square hole in the table begins to open up and a bowl of yucky green food comes up Papa then takes his hair back from me and i whine loudly
Papa: i know hun my hair is really fun but you need to eat Chickadee
Papa then takes a spoon full of the green mush and puts it too my lips i whine and cross my arms and turn my head away
Papa: oh hun come on it’s yummy here i’ll try
I look at Papa intently as he puts the spoon to his mouth and eats it after a few moments Papa’s face turns green and he makes the funniest face ever i can’t help but laugh
Papa: well i’m glad one of us is having fun how about we change up the entree
Papa’s eyes flash again and the yucky food begins to sink back down and it’s replaced with a purple bowl filled with pretty sparkly mush
But when Papa puts a spoon full to my lips i don’t open my mouth i just look to him and Papa looks confused
Papa: Chickadee what’s wrong this time
Jewel: wan Papa’s har!
I say as i make grabby hands for it Papa lets out a huff and gives me a lock of his Hair i then open my mouth and let Papa feed me it tastes really yummy soon Papa continues the process till all the food is gone and i let out a satisfied sigh
Papa then takes me out of the high chair and takes me over to a series of rocking chairs and cradles me then he reaches for a prepared bottle and puts it to my lips i open wide and begin to suckle on the sweet creamy milk i began to rub Papa’s strand of hair in my hand it’s really soft and shiny
Papa began to hum a song that was really pretty it was like Daddy’s song but this one was softer and more peaceful in a way i wanted to fall asleep right then and their but something was keeping me awake i just didn’t know what
Papa soon pulled the bottle away from me and placed a paci in my mouth Papa then stood up and walked out of the room i just hid my face in the crook of Papa’s neck and took in his scent
It was just as weird as Daddy’s but it kinda reminded me of vanilla
Why do Papa and Daddy have such weird smells hmm papa soon stepped into a new room i looked around and saw that we were in a new room it was white with a lot of fluffy birdy stuffies
Papa soon placed me on the soft carpet and i looked up at him i was unsure what to do Papa simply chuckled and took me over to the stuffies
Papa then sat on the floor with me and we started to play with the stuffies Papa was really fun and he gave such warm cuddles too he was also really gentle
As Papa and i were playing the door opened i looked to it and saw a new person they were dressed in a really pretty white dress with a veil wrapped around their arms they had yellowish white hair that looked just as long as Papa’s hair
Their eyes were a paler blue compared to Papa’s and they had strange slender marks under their eyes
Stranger: Maître Swan i have come to let you know that the Cradle is empty and the Chickadees have been moved to Nursery A-4
Papa: thank you Dove you may return to your other duties
Dove: yes my Maître
I turned to Papa and asked
Jewel: Papa who Dat!
Papa: that’s Dove my little Chickadee now let’s go get you ready for nap time
Jewel: but me no tired
Papa: but Chickadee i’m tired and i don’t want to nap alone can you please nap with me
Jewel: otay Papa needs rest
Papa then picked me up and took me to a cozy looking room with a big couch Papa sat on the couch with me on his lap Papa wrapped his arms around me and wrapped a blanket around both of us the lights began to dim down and light came on that put stars on the ceiling it was really pretty and unique
Laying on Papa’s sweater was like laying on an incredibly soft pillow it was really cozy i hope Papa can get some sleep he deserves it because he’s the best soon i hear Papa snoring and i do the same
I love Papa and Daddy they are the best
Maddy’s POV
I woke up from a nightmare in a strange dark place i wanted to be held i wanted to be warm and there’s this icky feeling i laid there crying my head off soon the lights came on and i heard someone come close
????: hey what’s wrong Chickadee oh i see someone’s pamp leaked out oh dear
I was then lifted up from my armpits and i was brought into a warm embrace i was still crying but being in this person’s embrace was a little calming
I was then pulled away from the warm embrace and placed on something really cozy but i wanted to be held i wanted warmth but more importantly i wanted this icky feeling to go away
I was screaming as loud as i could kicking my legs angrily soon i felt something being pushed into my mouth my tongue gave it a few pokes and it tasted sweet a little bit soon i began to suckle on it and i slowly began to calm down
????: there we go now let’s sort out your soaking pamp little Chickadee
I soon felt the person doing something then the Icky feeling went away and was replaced by a gentle fluttery feeling i then began to wipe the tears from my eyes and i looked up at the person he had pretty white hair and was wearing a fluffy sweater he looked towards me and smiled
I just tilted my head
White haired man: hello little Chickadee you feeling better now that your out of that icky pamp?
Maddy: goo?
White haired man: Hmm looks like someone lost their ability to speak huh? Well don’t worry little Chickadee Papa’s gonna make it all better
So this is Papa i turned my head and began suckling on the thing in my mouth it was really nummy soon the Papa picked me up and took me over to a wardrobe i was placed on a fluffy bed and Papa picked out a pink and white onesie for me and he dressed me in it the onesie had a matching hood and it was really cozy Papa also put blue and white long striped socks on my feet Papa held me close and i nuzzled into him i liked his fluffy sweater and i nuzzled against it
Papa soon took me out of the room and took me to another room this one had a big fluffy carpet Papa put a small rug on the floor and laid me on it with my tummy towards the floor i let out a happy coo because the rug was just as cozy as Papa’s sweater i happy kicked my legs out happily enjoying the warmth
Papa: i can’t wait for Daddy to see you Maddy he’s gonna be so happy to see you getting accustomed to your new life
When Papa said that i was starting to get worried Daddy might be mean and scary i didn’t know him i only knew Papa and Papa was super warm and nice what if Daddy was mean soon i heard the door open and i became completely still
????: oh is that Maddy looking adorable on the rug i see
Papa: you know it Crow
I soon felt myself being picked up and i get turned around to see a man with red eyes and short black straight hair he was smiling but something in me was scared i started to tear up and eventually i broke out in tears screaming at the top of my lungs
Crow placed me on his shoulder and started to rub my back and i was thrashing i didn’t want anything to do with him
Papa soon came to my rescue and held me and placed me on his shoulder and began to rub my back i was whimpering
Papa: shh shh it’s ok Chickadee Papa is here for you
Crow: mmm well four out of five ain’t bad
Papa: yeah it’s not bad at all and give it some time i’m sure Maddy will warm up to you
Papa and Crow soon sat on the couch and i soon started to fall asleep in Papa’s arms when i woke up Papa and Crow were talking and i was getting hungry i soon started to whine and fuss Papa and Crow soon stopped talking and Papa started to shh shh me after a few moments Papa moved me so i was being cradled and Papa put a bottle to my lips and i began to suckle on it
I keep my eyes closed and focus on my bottle Papa and Crow start talking again and honestly i don’t want Papa talking to crow but for the moment i’ll allow it Papa seems to really like Crow for some reason
When i’m finished with the bottle i begin to fuss a bit feeling uncomfortable Papa then moves me to where i’m facing him and puts my head over his shoulder and starts to pat my back and i let out a loud burp and a bit of spit up
I felt so much better afterwards and put my thumb in my mouth and begin to let out a satisfied coo
Papa: what a good girl you are now then why don’t we give you some more tummy time just for a bit
Papa then placed me back on the warm rug and i let out a approving coo because the rug is still so warm and feels good on my tummy
Papa and Crow go back to talking and i was starting to get annoyed by it but i was also getting sleepy soon my eyes betrayed me and i was sleeping on the warm rug letting out soft snores
Reggi’s POV
I was slowly waking up from nap time i lifted myself up and began rubbing my eyes i crawled over to the mesh pen wall and used it to prop myself up the nap time room had a cloud design and the pen had a soft flooring i looked back to where i was sleeping and i was sleeping on a flat cushion colored like a nest it even had a blanky
I looked around and saw Shep he was still sleeping and i was getting bored i got back on the floor and began crawling around looking for something to do i played with the stuffy for a bit and began to cuddle him he was a soft yellow ducky i loved cuddling my ducky
Soon the lights slowly began to come on and i saw Daddy he looked so happy and he wasn’t wearing a shirt i smiled and began to get excited because it was bonding time
Daddy: hello Shep it’s your turn today
Daddy opened the pen and came over and scooped me up and took me over to the rocking chair in the corner his eyes began to flash and my onesie completely melted faded away i then felt Daddy’s bare skin against mine and i closed my eyes and enjoyed the moment
Daddy wrapped his arms around me and held me close i heard Daddy’s heart beat it was gentle and steady Daddy then began to humm a song
Daddy’s muscles were strong yet comfortable to lay on it was like laying on a firm warm pillow i soon fell back asleep and i felt Daddy stroking my hair
I felt like i was getting closer to Daddy the more time i spent with him like this Daddy’s so warm and strong and he really loves me and Shep Daddy is the best Daddy in the whole world
Soon my consciousness began to slip away and i began to enter a really deep sleep
I then woke up with a big yawn and stretch and i rubbed the sleepies from my eyes i heard Shep and i think Papa i opened my eyes and found myself laying on one of those special rugs i looked around and saw Papa having Daddy Time with Shep we were in the cozy room and i wanted to have Daddy Time too
I crawled over to Papa and Shep and Papa smiled at me
Papa: hey there Reggi how are you
Reggi: dada time?
Papa: hehehehe ok hun we can have Daddy Time
Papa walked over to a closet and got another play mat and laid it beside Shep and i quickly came over and laid on it Papa then sat on his knees at our feet and he began to tickle us and make funny faces he even made funny noises
Shep and i were giggling happily and laughing so hard papa was fun he then grabbed some stuffies and began to make them move around with funny sound effects
This was the best day ever soon the door opened and Daddy looked towards it and both me and Shep looked as well and we saw Daddy and he was holding Babas
He had a big smile on his face
Daddy: it’s bottle time for these two
Papa: I'll take Shep, you take Reggi?
Daddy: of course
Daddy picked me up and Papa picked up Shep they walked over to the couch and they sat us in their laps and then they gave us bottles Shep and i suckled down the Bottles slowly and carefully
Papa and Daddy started talking
Papa: so is it safe to say that we have a routine down?
Daddy: for Humans yes Cynth Humans and other Androids though are a whole new challenge
Papa: I see well, are you still working on your new toy?
Daddy: hehe yeah but it’s still in the experimental phase though it needs to have a few more kinks worked out
Papa: well please be quick about it i want to bring some more Chickadees in here
