Part 7 – The Reset
It had been a break to be away from Nick’s store, he had kept me as just another one of his sexbots for just over three weeks, at my request I might add, but all things come to an end and Nick felt that I needed a breather from being E-001, and I still had my robotic postgraduate studies to complete. Nick had said that I needed to finish my studies and to ground myself back into the reality of life as Emma and not as E-001. As much as I would have like to just continue as another sexbot in his shop, I could see the reasoning behind his statement, even if I didn’t agree at the time.
Nick was also at this time busy rebuilding his business, with the money from the investor things had really changed for him, the shop would be expanded and the system upgraded to allow the automation of the sexbot rentals.
So when the time came to scratch my Emma-bot desires again as E-001 I received a call from Nick inviting me to visit the rebuilt store. Turning up just as the store was about to open, I walked in to see that the pleasure bots were no longer being displayed like before, but they stood in rows waiting to be rented out. Each one was dressed differently from the next, their led lights glowed a dim purple colour, not the usual blue when they were active.
I stood there appreciating the sexbots, their outfits looked stunning, though not something that you’d see on the street, these were more party or fetish type outfits, and recalled the times that I’d worn something similar when I was just another sexbot in Nick’s collection, my memories coming back to me of the times that I had been rented out to clients, I was enjoying recalling the moments that I was under the system’s control.
Then I was slightly taken aback when a female approached me, an assistant of some sort, “Welcome to Nick’s Pleasurebots,” she said, her voice slightly robotic, she must be one of Nick’s bots I thought, though the control collar should have given that away with the blue LED meaning that she was under the systems control. “Is there anything that I can interest you in?” she suggested.
“I’m just here to see Nick, the store owner, is he here?” I asked, while admiring the bot standing before me.
“I’ll get him for you, please wait here,” the bot responded, and walked off to the back area of the shop.
When Nick walked out, he greeted me, his smile warm as ever, his arms reaching out to me, bringing me in for a hug. “Emma, great to see you again. How’s my favourite little sexbot doing?”
“I’m well, thanks Nick, but the shop, it looks so different.” I responded.
“Yes, moving forward with the business, there’s been loads of changes made, and you’ve just met one of them in the new sales assistant, let me show you what else has changed since you were here last.” Nick said, while taking my hand in his to guide me around.
“These sexbots are ready for the customer to rent,” he told me while pointing to the bots that I’d just been admiring, “The system is now fully automated, so that when a client orders one of them from either our online shop, or uses the app, the requested sexbot then leaves to head off to the renter.”
“Wow, that’s certainly different, but do you still get customers inside the shop?” I asked, thinking back to the time I’d been on display and I was ‘checked out’ by the customers, I could feel their hands on me as I stood there on display, though I really loved my time on display.
“Yes, we still do get walk-ins, but a lot more business is now online and remote,” Nick explained.
“Progress, I imagine that’s made things easier for you.” I replied.
“Of course, and with the sales bot taking care of the customers who do still come into the shop, I can concentrate on growing the business,” Nick responded.
“Growing?” I questioned, “What does that mean?”
“Well, I already have plans for another store, in fact that one is being fitted out as we speak.” Nick proudly told me, “And with the business expanding I need more Emma-bots too.”
A tingle ran down my spine at that moment, the thought of being an Emma-bot again ran through my mind, but what would it be like now that the system was automated, previously Nick had screened the clients that I was sent out to, or so I believed, though some of them were a bit on the rough side, or wanted parts of my body that would normally be off-line, so to speak, but as a sexbot I couldn’t stop them from using me.
Nick then pulled me out the back of the shop, “Here’s where the magic happens,” he proudly informed me, “These new machines process the sexbots, from cleaning, recharging, dressing and storing, it all happens here.”
Looking around the workshop area certainly looked very different, larger in fact, maybe less cluttered and more efficient. But I was looking out for the storage pods that I remember spending a lot of my time as a sexbot inside of. There didn’t seem to be any, not that I could see.
“Where’s the old storage pods?” I asked, disappointed that they were no longer here.
“Ah, well, in terms of efficiency the sexbots have very little downtime, a sexbot not working is not earning anything, so they’re now moved downstairs.” Nick told me. “Most of the time, when not being recharged, the sexbots spend on the shop floor. But before I show you where the pods are. Let me run you through the new system.”
“Okay,” I reply, still slightly disheartened that the pods were no longer here.
“So let’s start when a sexbot returns to the shop, they enter through the back door, it only opens when it detects a sexbot, then they enter the cleaning area,” Nick pointed out various parts as we continued the tour. “The clothing is removed and recycled, saving money, as I seemed to recall some of your outfits were pricey, but well worth seeing you dressed in them.” He laughed.
“Once the cleaning cycle has washed the sexbots, they are then sent to recharging, which is downstairs, once that’s done, and when they’re needed to replace the stock on the floor or a special request comes in for a particular one,” Nick looked at me at that moment with a knowing smile.
I felt my knees slightly wobble and my body felt warm and flushed, and my nipples decided at that moment to show themselves through my top, I was hoping that I could brush off my arousal at the thoughts that I was having at that moment, but I’m sure that Nick noticed.
“Okay, where were we,” Nick looked slightly distracted, I guess that I still had an effect on him afterall. “So once cleaned and recharged, they come back here for dressing, whatever the client has requested, or whatever is needed for the floor stock out front. And once done they go off to where they are needed.”
“Well, it certainly seems to be very smooth and productive,” I replied, my mind wondering where I would fit in again as a sexbot.
“Let me show you the storage area, it’s down this way.” Nick said, grabbing my hand again and leading me to a stairway.
It was here that I saw the familiar storage pods that I remembered, though there seemed to be more of them, though only a few seemed to be occupied at the moment. I reached out for the closest one and ran my fingers over the frame, recalling my time in them. My thoughts were interrupted when Nick spoke again.
“Looks like you remember being in them,” he teased, “You want to try one again?”
“Hmm… maybe, but you haven’t finished the tour.” I reluctantly replied, I thought that I shouldn’t give myself away too soon.
“Well, basically the same, once cleaned, they come down on that vertical conveyor, and enter the pods to be recharged and stored, then once ready they come back as available on the system, and are ready to be processed, dressed and sent out.” Nick informed me, “That’s basically it, other than the workshop for repairs etc, which is over the far end.”
“Well, you’ve certainly changed things here, hopefully for the better. And you do seem to have more bots than I recall on the shop floor, plus these ones down here, so business must be good.” I remarked.
“Yes, with the help from my investor, and business partner, things are looking up. But what about you?” Nick asked, “Studies finished?”
“Oh yes, that’s all done, passed and filed away. Though I’m still not sure what I want to do next.” I replied.
“I’m sure that there’s something out there for you, a bright young thing like you, you’ll eventually find what you’re looking for.” Nick declared.
My thoughts about my future were fuzzy at best, my mind awash with formulas, calculations and schematics, which all seemed to make a clear decision about what I wanted to do next impossible, I needed some clear space, somewhere that I could just put my thoughts to one side for the moment, and I guess that was why I was here, but how would I fit in with the new system. My mind still abuzz with memories of my time here before.
Nick could see that something was on my mind, he had his suspicions, but he didn’t want to impose that decision on me, but took hold of my hand and pulled me over to one of the empty pods, “I can see that something is troubling you, maybe you need some time in one of the pods to recharge. Would you like that?” he asked.
My mind cleared slightly, maybe Nick was right, some time in the pod would help, but could I go back to being E-001 again? I know that I wanted to, I had really missed not being her, and there was nothing currently on my horizon that required my attention. “You… don’t mind?” I asked, “I know that you said that I needed a break, but…”
“No, it’s not a problem. Look, it’s just a pod, I’m sure that an hour or two will clear things up for you, but if you don’t want to I totally understand.” Nick replied, a look of disappointment on his face.
“No, Nick… Thanks I’d love to, that sounds great,” I responded, my thoughts were much happier now, and I smiled as Nick helped me step inside the pod.
“There, back where you belong,” Nick joked, “The original Emma-bot.”
“Thanks Nick, it certainly feels good to be back here,” I replied, while settling into the pod, the familiarity of the machine giving me warm feelings, my mind calmed and my body relaxed. But somehow it felt different, not quite right, it was like a niggling feeling that this was not what I recalled.
“How’s that?” Nick asked, happy to see his Emma-bot back in place.
“Fine… but, there’s something missing… I’m not sure…” I told him.
“Maybe it’s the collar and the system’s control, or the fact that you’re not naked,” he laughed.
“I think that you’re right,” I answered, and then shocked Nick when I stepped out and removed what little clothing that I was wearing, now naked I stepped back into the pod. “There, that feels better… I think.”
Nick’s face was stunned, his jaw dropped when I stripped off in front of him like it was nothing, I didn’t hide any part of my body from him, well I figured that he’d seen, and used, most of my body anyway, so I didn’t feel shy or embarrassed to be naked in front of him. I settled myself again in the pod, but that little niggling part came back.
“Well, it feels nicer now,” I said to Nick, “But there’s something else missing.”
“The collar,” Nick replied, “I can get your old one if you want?”
“Could you, that would be wonderful,” I said, my mind now made up to return as E-001, if only I could get Nick to agree.
He quickly returned, like he was already prepared for this to happen, “This is your old collar, it’s no longer used in the new system, for that you’d have to be processed,” Nick informed me. “But for now it’s usable to store you inside the pod, it’ll provide a temporary control function to enable you to enjoy your time in the pod.”
“Please, could you put it on for me,” I asked, my body responding to the thought of being another sexbot, I could feel the heat building within me, and a certain area getting slightly moist at the idea.
Once he attached the collar, he stepped back to admire me in the pod, “I’ve missed not having you around.” Nick divulged, ”I really liked having you here, either as Emma or E-001.”
“Well, you don’t have to miss either of us, if you want, I’d love to be E-001 again, that’s if you’ll have me?” I begged, “I don’t have anything else that I’d rather be doing at the moment.”
“That would be nice, but let’s decide on that after you spend some time in the pod, and maybe some lunch later,” Nick replied, happier now that his Emma was back.
“Sounds good, wake me when it’s time,” I answered, just as the system kicked in and took over my body, every part of me relaxed at that point and my mind went blank.
Nick watched the changes happening to Emma, one minute she was talking and the next she was under the system’s control, her face had changed, she looked at peace with herself, from his perspective, she seemed to be happier now. And he wondered if he could get her to agree to be a sexbot again, he had missed her.
After lunch, where we had spent the time catching up with our personal lives, I found that Nick still had no one in his life, other than sexbots, which he said that he had two that he kept at home, and secretly admitted that they were both Emma-bots, which reminded him of me. I felt slightly jealous of those bots, I should have been in their place, it only felt right to me to be there for Nick, and at that moment I knew that I wanted to become E-001 again, now how to get Nick to agree.
Though unknown to me, Nick was of the same opinion, he too wanted me back as E-001 but didn’t know how to ask or persuade me. It was only when we both confessed at the same time that I should be E-001 again, that we both felt relieved and laughed at how we had been acting, avoiding the elephant in the room.
Back at the shop, Nick took me back downstairs, he asked me again if I still wanted to become E-001 again, to which I responded “Yes, more than anything, I would like you to turn me back into E-001 again, please, and I want to experience it all, like before, I want to be E-001, to be rented out, programmed, dressed like I was just another sexbot in your roster, please treat me like I’m a sexbot again.”
Nick smiled, “Well, that sounds like the old Emma, and if that’s what you want I can do that for you.”
“Oh, and maybe you could take me home and well… use me.” I blushed.
“Well of course, I can’t have my best sexbot back and not make use of it, can I.” Nick laughed.
“Thank you Nick, I look forward to serving you,” I said, my body already getting aroused at the thought.
“Well, you’ll need to start naked, and then I can begin to process you.” Nick stated, his mind already thinking about how he wanted to dress his Emma-bot, or E-001 as I was shortly about to become.
Quickly discarding my clothes again, I stood there naked in the basement, my thoughts on what I was about to become taking away any doubts or concerns that I may have had, this is what I wanted to be, nothing more, nothing less, just another sexbot, to be used and then discarded afterwards, to await the next client that required my services.
“Okay, I need you to understand something, the old collar no longer works for the rental side of things, the automated system will require something else.” Nick hesitated for the moment, wondering if he could tell Emma what was now needed.
“Whatever it is, I’m happy for you to proceed, make me your sexbot again,” I replied.
“Step into the scanner, and it’ll automatically process you, but don’t say that I didn’t warn you.” Nick expressed, “It’s slightly different.”
I stepped in the tube, the door closing behind me, this was the last point of no return it seemed to me, whatever Nick was trying to tell me didn’t matter, I wanted to become the Emma-bot again, whatever came next didn’t matter at that moment. I looked at Nick standing there, he appeared to be worried, but there was only one thing on my mind at that moment.
The scanner started, the drone of the machines hum vibrating through me, I closed my eyes expecting some sort of laser measuring me, which it did, then I felt the machine touch me in several places, one above my breasts on my chest, another in the small of my back and the last on my rear, I didn’t know what it was doing, but whatever it was it was over as quickly as it had begun. Then something cold pressed against the back of my neck, and at that moment everything went black, I didn’t fall as the machine gripped me firmly, and I came to after a short while.
Nick was waiting still outside of the scanner, his face still showing concern, I couldn’t see what all the fuss was about, and waited there hoping that the machine had finished what it was doing to me. I didn’t feel anything different, I thought that the device was just a simple scanner, that was until the door opened to let me walk out. I couldn’t move, my legs wouldn’t respond, or my arms, and I slightly panicked at that point.
Nick saw me, and knew that I was confused, “Emma, wait until the system connects, it’ll only take a moment, so just relax for a bit, you’ll feel fine once it does.” Nick stated, which did relax me slightly.
Then I felt the connection with the system, this felt like before, the familiarity of it soothing my concerns at my lack of movement. Then several things began running through my mind, mostly how to be a sexbot, the various things that I would be expected to do and perform, the variety of sexual positions, likes, fetishes, the whole thing seemed to be running through my thoughts at lightning speed, like I was downloading the sexbot instruction booklet, or more like several volumes of kinky desires, and other stuff. It all seemed overwhelming at that moment, I seemed to be lost to the real world at the moment, and diving deeper down into the other side.
I don’t recall how I ended up back inside one of the pods, but when the fog lifted I was standing inside one, the metal straps enclosed around me holding me, I looked around, it seemed that I still had some limited movement in my eyes, though my body was still offline to me. I recalled stepping into the scanner, and then it did something to me, then nothing until this moment. I wondered where Nick was at this minute, maybe he’d gone home, it did appear to be late, I found that I had an internal clock advising me of the time, this was new, then again everything else felt different this time around. My thoughts were brought back to earth when I spotted Nick walking over towards my storage pod.
“Hello Emma, or should I say E-001 again, how do you feel?” he asked.
My voice responded before I could even formulate the sentence, “E-001 online, upgrades completed, systems operating as normal, ready to assume required duties.” I replied, my voice now more robotic than human.
“That’s good, so no after effects?”
“This unit is fully functional and compliant,” I responded, again before I could manage to think about the question.
“Well, I should tell you Emma, that you now have a control chip implanted inside of you, I did say that things would be different this time, but I knew that you’d want to do it anyway,” Nick asserted, “And you now have some permanent barcodes that signify you as one of the sexbots that the company owns, and a little emblem on your rear to mark you as one of my bots.”
My thoughts at that moment, were one of shock that this had happened, how could Nick do this to me, but then the realisation hit me, I would have done this no matter what, and if I was marked as one of his sexbots I would wear that with pride, for that’s what I wanted to become. I was happy to be E-001 again, I had missed being that bot, and felt a wave of relief rush over me at the thought of me being her again.
“Now, E-001, please step out of the pod and walk over to the workshop so that I can check you over.” Nick ordered.
My legs finally responded, and I stepped out and followed Nick, once in the workshop area I stopped and stood still, waiting for Nick to command me. Nick looked at my body, he examined behind my neck, I guess that was where the control chip had been implanted in me, the idea that I was nothing more than a robot, my body controlled by a system, should have been frightening to me, but I accepted it for what I had become, my desires overriding any lingering doubts that I may have had.
“E-001 walk over to the mirror,” Nick instructed.
My body moved as he wanted it to. Once there I could see my reflection in the mirror, my body still naked, I could see every part of me, and then I spotted the barcode on my chest, and recalled Nick telling me that I had other markings too.
“As you can see, Emma, you’re now marked as E-001, and are registered into the database, I hope that you’re happy to be back, but I can’t release you just yet from the system, it needs time to calibrate to your body, so for the next few days you’ll remain as E-001.” Nick informed me.
It seemed that I would be getting my desires, this would be my life from this moment onwards, I figured, I wondered if Nick knew that this was my true goal when I came here, my life outside wasn’t where I wanted to be, I wanted to become E-001 again, and lose myself in the system and joy that it brought me. I don’t know if my happiness showed through, but I hoped that I had a smile on my face at this moment.
“Okay, time to get dressed E-001, let’s get you to the dresser and see what I can come up with this time,” Nick said.
Once back upstairs, Nick ordered me to step into the dresser, I complied without hesitation and looked forward to seeing what he would dress me in.
The machine stirred to life, I could feel it crafting whatever Nick had programmed into the machine, the cool feel of the material as it encased my naked skin, I could also feel something covering my arms and then my legs, it felt like a spider crawling over them, creating what turned out to be fishnet stockings, I think Nick has a thing for them. When the machine had finished with the dressing part, it then worked on my hair, forming a high ponytail and then applying a subtle makeup to finish off my more robotic look.
When I stepped out I finally got a view of the way that Nick had dressed me, the shiny purple latex dress hugged my curves, displaying me in all my glory, my legs were covered with fishnet stockings like I had suspected, with garters to hold them up like before and I wore long latex gloves up my arms. My shoulders were bare, and I could still see the barcode that was now permanently printed on my chest. The latex collar around my neck connected to the dress, and the LED light was now blue, which meant that I was now active.
Nick stepped over to admire his work, I must admit that he had crafted the perfect sexy outfit to enhance my natural features, it felt wonderful on my body, there wasn’t anything between my flesh and the latex, I could feel the goosebumps forming on my skin at the thought of just how sexy I looked. And I wondered what would be happening next, maybe a client or would Nick be the first one using this rebuilt E-001.
Nick then spoke, “Well Emma, you’re back where you belong as E-001, but as I said you’ll need time to be properly connected to the system and it to be calibrated to your particular needs and requirements, like toilet, feeding etc. So for now I’m going to leave you on display with the other sexbots, though for the moment you won’t be rented out, and it also means that I can’t take you home with me either, but I’m sure that you’ll love being on display again.”
“Now E-001, assume display mode and take up your position.” Nick ordered.
Though I was disappointed that I wouldn’t get to spend the first night back with Nick, I was looking forward to serving him again, I would have to be content to be on display, so there was no downside in my mind, I was always happy when standing on display and the customers inspecting me like I was just another object for them to admire. My body walked out and my mind followed along for the ride. There were several other sexbots already standing on display and I stepped over to stand in among them. Assuming the pose that was required of me, my body shut down and I was left with my mind free to experience being just another sexbot again.
