Silent Book: Art of the Thirteen Striking Cobras

Cindy Collins was very happy with her new roomate. Silent Book was very clean
and always seemed to have cash when they needed something like supplies to
clean up the house. She had scrubbed the place and made it as presentable as
possible. She and Book had shopped at Goodwill for a few things that had truly
made a difference, including some nice pictures and an easy chair in very good
condition. Cindy felt good watching tv while Book relaxed in their new used
chair. Every time she thought he wasn't looking she would steal a glance at him.
He was so handsome and polite...and very well groomed. And full of surprises; and maybe just a tiny bit...weird.

Cindy was fussing with her hair one morning before school. "Damn this fucking
shit anyway!" The girl exclaimed.

"Is something wrong Cindy?" Book asked, obviously just outside the door to her
room.

"Nothing's wrong Silent, I'm just having problems with my hair."

"May I come in?" Book replied. "I might be able to help...I have some knowledge
of hair dressing."

"Well, actually I'm in my underwear right now."

"Oh, I don't mind that at all," Book said and opened the unlocked door before
stepping inside.

Cindy's face turned blood red. She was more than a little shocked that he would
just walk in on her like that but she didn't say anything, she wasn't exactly sure
what to say...and a thrill ran down her spine that Book could see her partially
undressed.

"Please let me assist you with your hair Cindy?" Book asked. "I truly think I can
help and it would make me very grateful should you allow me to try."

"Errr...well...OK I guess," the embarrassed girl replied before crossing her arms
over her bra. The android sensed that the girl was uncomfortable. The clue was
her arms over her breasts. "Please don't be alarmed by my presence, I have
seen other females in their underwear." Actually he has only seen one before...
Lois Masterson.

Cindy was at a loss for words but she sorta liked the boy's boldness. He surely
wasn't quite as boring and straight laced as he appeared at times. "Well, I
suppose I shouldn't be surprised that you've seen...other women."

The boy was already busy with her hair...to her complete shock his hands moved
expertly. "I think I have an appropriate style that you will enjoy," he said in a very
matter of fact way.

He finished very quickly and Cindy was amazed at the results. "Gosh Silent, you
are a pro big guy...I've paid money for a lot worse work...a lot worse!"

"Thank you so much Cindy, it means a lot to me...hair dressing is something that
I find very fulfilling."

"You must have a ton of experience," the girl gushed while admiring her new do
in the mirror."

"Actually you are the first person I ever styled. However, I have watched various
procedures being done many times in the past."

"No shit Sherlock...wow!" Cindy also observed the boy in the mirror as he
admired his own handiwork. He was smiling and it was a different smile for him
she realized strangely . It was almost childlike in a way. Hairdressing must be
important for him she had no doubt. Well, if he liked it so much she certainly
didn't mind letting him do her hair every morning. She suddenly realized that she
wore only bra and panties.

"Thanks so much Silent, but if you will excuse me I will get dressed now."

"Certainly," the android replied before leaving the room. Cindy sat there stunned
for a few moments.

Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&Y&

Saturday morning came and Cindy was sleeping late. She had worked the night
before and probably wouldn't be up for some time. Silent Book lay on the bed in
his room running various programs. He reasoned that the process was similar
to what humans called thinking. He investigated various statistics and databases
then came to logical conclusions about these tests or "observations." He was
somewhat concerned about his lack of progress in work related matters. During
school hours he had observed only one illegal activity in the last week, that being
a drug deal going down behind the gym. He had instantly recognized Tanno as
being one party, and the person buying the drugs had been committed to a visual
record inside Book's programming. Tanno being involved in dope dealing was
hardly a surprise. The android has used his audio sensors to to pick up some
conversation between the two boys about an establishment called the Rooster.
Undoubtedly the Rooster was a local club. Book ran a police trace on the club
and wasn't surprised to discover the joint had a very bad reputation which
included a myriad of complaints by the local citizens from the general area.
Book would certainly go there to "hang out"...possibly tonight.

Having finished work, the android considered when and where he might be
contacted by Lois Masterson. She might be disappointed by his lack of any
significant progress on the job. On the other hand he could hardly deny that
work seemed to be the last thing on her mind during their last meeting. Book
scanned his memory for a complete re-visualization of their initial encounter. In
his computerized brain he relived the woman giving herself a bath. Feeling
something akin to the human emotion called boredom, Book booted his
simulated intoxication program. Logically this was puzzling to him but for some
unknown reason or possible malfunction he wanted to experience that particular
"feeling" again. It did make some sense logically because the intoxication
program had somehow given the android an increased sensation of humaneness.

The program came online and Book found himself actually enjoying the strange
sensation very much. Then, for no reason at that logic could explain, he found
himself considering the offer by Belinda to provide him with oral sex. Should he
find himself in intoxication mode the girl's offer might be more difficult to resist.
This almost perplexed him but in intoxication mode any misgiving about an
obvious malfunction in his programming did not seem especially important. That
was possibly a good thing he observed.

Surprisingly, Book found his sexual functions had initialized by themselves. The
program had come online of its on accord as he calculated the pleasure that
might possibly be obtained while experiencing oral sex with a human female.
Certainly it appeared that intoxication mode combined with executing sexual
related data was enough to jump start his simulated human sexuality without
any further prompting. To verify this observation Book slid his jeans down over
his hips and found a full erection waving proudly in the quiet morning air. "How
very interesting" he verbalized to no one...something of itself that seemed very
illogical. The android grasped the phallus had squeezed it lightly. "Ummm," he
verbalized again before shutting down his visual sensors and then working his
hand up and down the long stiff shaft. The amount of sensation was quite
unexpected and he unwittingly increased both the degree of intoxication
sensation and the intensity of various visual stimuli...including a simulated take
on Belinda performing oral sex on his cock. Surprisingly his internal sensors
noted a marked increase in the amount of simulated sperm in his scrotum, and
it was increasing at a remarkable speed. His nano technology was apparently
responding amazingly well to his sexual activity. Fascinating.

Cindy woke up realizing she needed to go pee. Half asleep she crawled out
from underneath the covers and half stumbled toward the single bathroom that
she and her friend shared. She stretched her little body and tried to focus on
whatever activity the day required. "Oh, its Saturday...goody." The girl thought
to herself. She glanced into the living room expecting Book to be there because
he always got up very early. Surprised he wasn't there, she continued down the
hall towards the bath. "Well, I guess even Silent Book likes to sleep in sometime
or other."

As Cindy passed Book's bedroom she noticed his door was only partially shut.
Despite herself, she peeped inside and her pretty green eyes suddenly flashed
wide open and she found herself very awake. Silent lay there on his bed naked
from the waist down stroking an incredible erection. She stood there for a brief
moment slack jawed as the boy lay with his eyes closed, vigorously milking his
cock. Her first instinct was to dash on to the bath but she hesitated for just a bit
longer. She knew of course that guys jacked off all the time but this was a first
for her. Her breathing involuntarily became ragged.

"Cindy, is that you?" Book's eyes had opened and they looked squarely into
the startled girl's.

"Errr....I...err...was just on my way to pee. I didn't mean to bother you...uhh..."
The girl was totally embarrassed but her feet somehow wouldn't move. She was
frozen partly from shock at being caught at spying on her good friend.

"I will just ...err...close your door so you can have some privacy." She said after
a pause.

Book could sense the girl was somehow uncomfortable but couldn't fully
comprehend why. "Is everything alright Cindy?" He asked.

"Err...yes, uh...everything is just fine," the girl replied as she pushed the door to.

The her complete shock the door re-opened and Books stood there with an
inquisitive look on his face and a cock that was beyond stiff and bobbing.

Despite herself she stared at his member. "Are you sure you're fine Cindy?
I thought you would sleep in this morning...did something wake you?"

"No...I just need to pee," the red faced girl stammered.

Book followed the girl's gaze down to his penis. "This thing is really very
interesting don't you think?"

"Yeah, I guess you could say that...I'll just be going now...and you can get back
...to whatever...I'm so sorry I bothered you Silent."

"Why Cindy, you aren't bothering me at all. I was really wanting to talk to you
anyhow."

"W..what about Silent?"

"I have been thinking a lot about sex lately."

"I would have never guessed...I'm sure that's a guy thing...ya know?"

"I'm not sure I understand what you mean," Book replied. "It is a very pleasure
producing activity don't you think?"

"I'm not sure where this is going Silent...does this have something to do with you
seeing me in my bra and panties the other day?"

"What?"

"Well, err...I was just thinking that maybe seeing me like that might have gotten
you...well...you know...worked up or something?" Her voice sounded almost
hopeful.

It was unlike Book to hesitate but he did...there were a few calculations he felt
the need to run.

"Actually Cindy, I do like your body very much...especially your bottom, its very
firm and attractive. How do you feel about my body?"

"It's very...nice...Silent."

"Do you like my penis? Do you think it would be adequate to give you sexual
pleasure...I mean, do you like my cock?" Some program kicked on inside the
android that warned him he was talking like and android and not a human.
Luckily the girl didn't seem to notice. Her eyes strayed to his organ again.
Cindy's cheeks were flushed blood read and her legs felt rubbery.

"It a beautiful thing you have Silent..." she blurted out. "I'm sorry I interrupted you
while you ....w..while you were jacking off. Those words in her
mouth sounded so dirty, and it they excited her."

Silent Book seemed puzzled and sensed that he needed to re-assure the girl.
"Why Cindy, you're more than welcome to come in my room anytime you wish,
even if I'm like you said...jacking off...and besides this was your home first."

"Oh Silent...its as much your home as mine and I should have respected your
privacy. It's just that your door was ajar and I...well...err...I had never actually
seen a boy playing with his stuff and...I guess I was sorta curious...I'm so sorry."

Book put his hand on the girl's slender shoulder. "There is absolutely nothing
to be sorry for. I forgot to close the door and besides...we are friends and don't
have to hide things from each other. I hadn't realized that you had never seen
a male organ before. It really is fascinating though...don't you think...especially
when it's wholly erect like now. I suppose you only watched me out of curiosity.
I understand fully and you shouldn't beat yourself up for what comes naturally to
a female...an interest in the male organ I mean."

Cindy shrugged and tried to smile. "You certainly have the oddest way of putting
things Silent. I kind of felt slutty though...watching you play with yourself."

"This is all very interesting Cindy. Why don't you come in and we will talk about
it."

"I'm not so sure that is a good idea," Cindy said, her face turning red again.

"Why?"

"I dunno, its just weird ...ya know?"

"Don't you want to inspect my organ closer?"

"What do you mean...inspect it?"

"Perhaps you would like to touch it...or would you rather touch my testicles?"

Cindy hesitated a long while before answering..."are you asking me to help you
jack it off?"

"If you would like to...do you?" There was a very long pause before Cindy spoke.

"Maybe...if you think its alright...this won't lead to sex will it?"

"I don't expect it to...its just that when I was...jacking off...it felt really very nice.
I couldn't help think that it might be especially nice with a partner."

Silent Book took the girl's small hand and gently guided it to his member. Her
breathing deepened noticeably but the girl wrapped her slender fingers around
the big cock and her mouth opened slowly to suck in oxygen. "It's really big,"
she said in a husky voice.

The couple proceeded to the bed where Book lay back with his legs spread
wide to allow the girl better access. Tentatively at first, she stroked her hand
up and down the long shaft. Then, gaining confidence she worked his cock
with more powerful strokes. "Oooooo," Book groaned involuntarily.

"Does it feel good?" Cindy asked.

"Very much so Cindy...thank you for jacking it for me."

They both fell silent as the girl concentrated. Cindy was naturally a very shy girl
but she found herself wondering what he would think if she put it in her mouth.
She also found herself worrying about whether he would want to fuck her. After
all she was a virgin and had hoped to remain one for a little longer...although she
wasn't entirely sure why. It occurred to her that his cock was so big it might hurt
her or even make her pregnant and that would never do. She had never seen
a boy cum but she knew they did. The sensible thing to do considering the
circumstances might be to let him unload in her mouth. She decided to simply
not think about it but rather go for it. The leaned forward and slipped the fat
cock between her lips.

"Oh Cindy!" Silent groaned and shut down his visual sensors. "That feels so
incredible." His hips moved instinctively to meet her downward sucking motions.
This sensation was so new and unbelievable to Book that he never wanted it to
end. The intense feeling persisted as Cindy grew more confident and sucked
his cock with increasing expertise and affection. After several minutes Book
realized something remarkable was about to happen. "Oh Cindy, sweet baby
...I can't stand much more." Then suddenly he exploded with unreal intensity...
every circuit in his pre-fabricated body was seized by waves of electric shock
unlike anything he could have ever imagined. He was truly unprepared for
the experience of his first orgasm.

It lasted for what seemed like forever. At last the sensations subsided and some
new, previously unknown program kicked in that Book found curiously something
like the feeling humans called peace. He brought his sensors back online and
looked at the pretty girl. "Did I do it good Silent?" She asked. "Your milk
really tasted much better than I expected...and there was so much of it."

"Oh shit..." Book said. The statement was completely illogical.


That evening after Cindy left for her job the android decided it was time to focus
on his. He had determined to put behind him this irrelevant fixation on certain
human activities between male and female. It was time he visited the Rooster
and intensify his investigation of gang related activity in the neighborhood. It
didn't take the fast walking Book long to reach the club. It was a seedy looking
place in once of the worse areas of town. He hadn't expected anything more.
Without the slightest hesitation he entered.

Inside the lights were dim, the paint was peeling off the walls, and a bad smell
permeated the stale air...along with a cloud of cigarette smoke. Book took it all
in quickly. There were a half dozen shady looking characters milling about...
some were shooting pool and the others were just lurking and drinking. In the
corner and old school type jukebox blared some crappy techno beat. The boy
sat down at the bar and asked for a beer. The bartender was an older man, he
had a cigarette hanging from his lower lip and a three day shadow on his chin.

"You got ID young fellow?"

Book threw his identification on the bar. "Sure," he answered.

The dirty bartender looked the card over for quite some time before laying it on
the bar and shoving it back in the direction of the android. "You sure this is real
sonny? You sure don't look 21."

If Book had been human he would have seen the irony in the man's statement.
It was pretty obvious that most, if not all, of the guys hanging around the Rooster
were nowhere near 21. In fact, the android knew three of the faces as fellow
high school students. They were all drinking.

Book shrugged, "a lot of people say I look young for my age...now how about that
beer?"

The bartender produced a beer and drifted away to put the two dollars Book
paid into the cash register. The undercover robot swiveled on his barstool and
pretended to watch the pool game. He noticed one of the high school kids stroll
quietly towards a hallway that led someplace in the back of the building. After a
few minutes he returned, whispered a few words to a couple of the other bar flys
and then sat down. A few seconds later two big rough guys about thirty exited
from the back and walked up to the bar. One stopped right in front of the android
, the other just to the side. "So, you're the little squirt who calls himself Silent
Book?"

The boy took a sip of beer before answering. "Yes, I am Silent Book...I don't
remember ever having had the pleasure of meeting you though?"

The big man was wearing army fatigues with the sleeves cut out. He had really
big muscular arms and a gold tooth right in front. "I got a problem shithead."

Book looked the man right in the eye and smiled faintly..."if there is something
that I can help you with I'd be glad to do it...friend."

The big man smiled real big and flashed the gold tooth. Book's sensors told him
the bartender had positioned himself just to the rear of the android. He also
knew that all three of the humans were edging closer...much closer.

The big thug continued..."my name is Max and I'm sorta in a bad situation here.
You see I got a friend...a real good friend named Bottle that says you don't know
how to mind your own business, and me and my pals here think we need to show
you a little something that might fix your shitty attitude."

A puzzled expression claimed the android's face. For a moment he seemed
lost in some intense thought but only for a moment. "Oh yeah, I remember Bottle,
are you guys faggots too?"

The big man's face darkened into a murderous mask. Both big hands shot
towards Silent Book's throat. The thug moved quickly but slower than Book.
The boy caught both the attackers arms by the wrists and yanked them suddenly
down and forward. At the same time the android brought his forehead forward
to smash with a sickening thud across the bridge of the big man's nose. Blood,
snot, and tears all exploded from the crushed organ and the suddenly watery
eyes. Big Max stumbled away cursing, crying, and holding his nose.

The man to Book's right threw a roundhouse punch that the android blocked
easily by throwing up his left arm. Then the android threw a vicious uppercut that
snapped the man's head backwards and he dropped like the sack of shit that
he most certainly was. The bartender swung a heavy bottle at the undercover
agent but Book deftly sidestepped and it missed. He caught the assailant by
the hand which he slammed against the bar with great force. The bartender
screamed and jerked away, his hand broken.

The fun was just getting started. The kid that had carried word to the back
came at the android with a pool cue. He landed a heavy blow with his weapon
against Book's chest. The kid didn't get quite the results he expected though.
The cue simply snapped clean in two and didn't knock the android back one
centimeter. Silent Book kicked the kid's legs out from under him and he crashed
hard to the floor. The high school boy looked up at the android with real fear
on his face. "I'm sorry dude, please don't hurt me!"

"Just lay where you are and nobody bothers y...." A heavy thud broke against
the back of the android's head and he pitched forward...nearly falling atop the
frightened teenager he'd just downed. Book felt a weird buzzing sound inside
his head followed by a split second of confusion. However, this sensation
passed almost as quickly as it had came...the android flipped catlike onto his
back and then into a squatting position. Big bad Max with the broken nose
stood over him holding a two by four piece of lumber. He seemed a little bit at
a loss that Book hadn't been knocked cold. However, this didn't prevent Max
from swinging again at the fallen robot. Book was prepared this time. He
caught the weapon in mid swing and wrenched it free from the stupid man with
the busted nose.

Almost faster than the eye could follow the hapless thug found himself on the
receiving end of the two by four. The club whacked against Max's head and this
time he went down for good. Book sensed another attack from the rear, he
dropped the club and threw his left up. Unfortunately this proved to be a blow
not so easily blocked. A woman had appeared from nowhere and she slashed
at the android with a samurai sword. Book's left hand was almost severed.
There was no time for him to consider this situation because first he had to
remove the threat. His audio sensors piced up the sound of police sirens even
as he threw a flying kick at the woman which slammed her against the bar where
she fell into a heap. Then the android seized the sword and snapped it in half by
jamming it with incredible force against the wall. The loud crack of breaking
steel had scarcely dimmed as the wounded warrior raced through the back
of the Rooster and hurled himself through a window. Brushing off some of the
broken glass he found himself in an alley. He ran like the wind away from the
Rooster and the sound of the sirens. Although he was a police agent himself the
time was not right to blow his cover. Also his programming told him that there
was considerable corruption within the regular police force. Book had made the
quick decision to exit the scene. They had his name though and he felt that it
might not be a good idea to go home right away. He did managed to save a
visual scan of the woman who had cut off his hand. She had long black hair and
a tattoo of a scorpion on her arm. She was nearly six feet tall and...beautiful.

Silent Book made a beeline back to his previous home...the van. First though he
had made a couple of previous quick stops...all the while careful to keep his
damaged hand crammed deep in a pants pocket. He considered carefully and
things could be worse . As far as he knew no one was aware that he'd been
living with Cindy Collins. Book hoped the cops wouldn't find out and show up
searching for him. Just in case, he shot a quick priority e-message off to Lois
Masterson to call off the heat...and explaining what had happened. One thing
he failed to mention in the message was the fact he'd just lost his left hand.
Actually he still had it, the thing just wasn't attached to his arm anymore. The
shred of simulated skin that held it on he had cut away. Being one handed was
going to be damned inconvenient to say the least.

It was completely illogical and contrary to most of his programming to hide the
fact that he had been "damaged." The truth was he did not find appealing the
idea that he would have to be returned to an Elessonorian repair depot where
he would remain for an undetermined time...and possibly be decommissioned or
even reassigned to some other duties. Book also had of late grown more and
more certain that there was something in his hard drive that was dysfunctional.
This only made him that much more wary of being "repaired." The more he
considered this option the more he viewed such a thing unfavorably. He also
had a strange desire to further explore his "human-like" tendencies. Could it
be a part of his programming he was unaware of? Was he supposed to be
morphing into a less machine-like machine?

Book used some old newspaper to stuff one of the black gloves he's just bought.
This he attached to his handless wrist and carefully secured it into place with
plenty of duct tape. He put his jacket on and admired his "handiwork". This
dummy hand would work unless someone noticed he never moved his fingers or
touched it. Whatever, it was the best he could do for the time being. Somehow
he would find a means of re-attaching his real hand. However, this might be a
most difficult problem. He'd also have to remember to wear a glove on his good
hand...pulling Michael Jackson just wouldn't be logical...he supposed.

At that moment the weird buzzing returned for a half second. It was the same
sensation he'd heard just following the blow he taken from the two by four. There
didn't seem to be any significant damage but he decided to give himself a full
body functioning scan just the same. There was always the chance that he might
be able to assist his internal nano repair technology if he could first find any
possible glich. In the meanwhile he could also consider what to do about telling
Cindy about his "injury." She would know right off something was up if he never
took off the glove. How would she react if she knew he wasn't a real boy but only
an apparently vaguely malfunctioning, horny robot? There was a lot to consider.

Book attached the scanning electrodes to his body at various points and went
into semi-shutdown mode until the process completed its function. Everything
basically seemed to fall into routine until he discovered that the blow to the back
of his head had damaged one of his processes. Incredibly, this random violent
event had miraculously shut down the program that had prevented him from
accessing the "hidden" parts of his memory. Silent Book was about to leave
the earth on an amazing journey inside his own previously locked memories!
