“Yes…nothing…I remember…you will be leaving to become a man of your house soon. Why is this pertain able to now? Do you require assistance?”
“No Alina…I…I don’t require assistance…I have something to tell you”.
“What is it…Nothing?”
“I…I can’t take you with me Alina…”
“Then…where will I go? How will I function?”
“You wont…I’m shutting you down…”
“Temporarily?”
“No…Alina…no...not temporarily…its…god…its….I’m…so…sorry…”
“…master…”
“The virus is uploading to you as we speak…you’ll start to shut down soon…But I want you to know something.”
“What is that Master?”
“I’ve always loved you…you’re the best program I’ve ever designed. There are a lot of people out there who are very disappointed in me for doing this to you. But…they will never understand my reasoning. Just as I’m sure you yourself don’t”.

SYSTEM OFFLINE
The male pushed himself away from the large, and now very blank screen, tears streaming down his pale face in the glow of the blue screen. He carefully ejected the program disc and stared down at it for a moment, before placing it gently in a case, marking it A.L.I.N.A and placing it in a box with a bunch of other discs, before getting to his feet and walking out, the box under one arm. He looked down at it one last time then took a deep breathe and set it on top of the rest piled in the hallway, the ones destined for a lifetime of storage. His hands shook slightly and his heart was a squirming mass of pain and guilt and with a final glance, he walked out the front door and to his future wife’s car, where he was forced to put the last question he had been asked out of his mind.
“Is this what its like for humans to die?”
His fiancé looked at him with some concern. “Honey, you ok?” He nodded slowly. “Yea...yea…just…got some dust in my eyes from the last box is all…lets go...the moving van will be here soon”.
In the basement the blue screen flickered, quivered, then clicked a few times. A news reel was brought up on the screen, the mans face sad as he trudged through an interview for the news. A headline in red ticked across the bottom half of the screen. ALINA CREATOR TO RECALL AND DISCONTINUE MILLIONS OF WORLD FAMOUS SONG PROGRAM. The volume adjusted itself steadily, until his voice rang out in the silent room. “I’m very disheartened to be discontinuing Alina. I’m sure she’s touched the hearts of many, just as she’s touched my own. Those who already own the program will be substituted with another, called DANTE, though the program itself will be very different. Users wont be able to access the same holographic features as with Alina, vocals will be very different, and in general, will hold nothing of the predecessor. Alina was special…mostly to myself and to those who completely went out of their ways to get to know her. She…she will be missed. But sadly I just don’t have the time to continue such a series and will undoubtedly be handing the company and all its resources over to my young co-owner, Ryan Miller”.
The crowd applaused as Ryan Miller stepped up to the podium, but at that moment the volume was lowered and the screen went blank. The virus finished ravishing what was left of the system before it, to, fizzled out of existence.
“Master…..?”
“Please Alina…don’t…don’t call me master”.
“But….that’s who you are…your...master…why would I not…call you that…?”
“Alina...you don’t understand...I just…I don’t want you calling me that...please…just do that for me ok?”
