17-year-old Emod was a black American Flesh'Bot girl who was supposed to fix rockets. She lives at the NASA building being raised by the scientists and workers there.
Emod was an Ebony brown-skinned woman whose skin was close to black but wasn't black itself. Emod was quite skinny, they helped her get this way to be able to fit into the crevices and holes of the rockets.
Emod had a woman to be the main caretaker of her named Emory.
Emory moved out of Bankhead to The Bible Belt, Houston, Texas.
Bankhead is A street in Atlanta, GA is known to have the highest crime rate in the metro area...
Nobody trusted her and nobody wanted her in Houston, Texas because it was a Christian place and they were genuinely worried she would kill someone.
Some were worried she'd open doors for more to come and bring sin into a holy place.
79% of black people are Christians, most of Houston is Christian, they were nice to her but scared of her.
She needed to gain trust.
Working in NASA was an honor for Emod, Ebony? A Rocket Scientist? A GIRL? Working where there are more WHITE men than black dark brown-skinned workers as a result of racist employers leaving that dark skin black people are evil or are not smart and thinking they may ruin the mission in some way or harm another person?
Well, I know that not everyone is that is white is racist, it's just that in some places things like in higher up jobs there is some form of racism, I mean, this is reality. Racism does exist.
WELL, not talking about racism may help.
The problem is that the racist will continue to talk against other people of races that they do not like, not talking about them doing it or reprimanding them only results in them continuing to do their racist behavior.
Emory was a black woman whose job was to make sure Emod was okay, Emory used to work as an assistant due to them needing one.
When Emod came on the scene, God convinced Emory to care for Emod, but, Emory had to convince them to let her take care of Emod.
Emory really didn't mind having the job given to her because Emory was black and an assistant because Emory was already told by God to do the job, not because God was racist because God isn't racist.
God just saw Emory as being better able to care for Emod because Emory saw Emod as more of a person.
God knew Emod was a living human person and that the chip project wasn't working.
When Emod was two years old...
Emod was laying on the couch and not thinking about anything and falling asleep, eventually, she passed out and suddenly it was tomorrow when she woke up, to her eye point of view, it was like a time skip like life blinked to the bright blue sky's brimming daylight morning, except... It's only been 12 hours.
Emod was asleep for 12 hours. She blacked out, basically.
Emod thought: "The fluff? It was nighttime just a second ago..." Unaware she was sleeping for 12 hours...
Emod saw Emory Underneath her, Emod climbed to Emory's face as Emod laid on top of sleeping Emory and caressed her face, Emod sang "Go to sleep, go to sleep..." Slowly and repeatedly.
Emory woke up slowly and shocked as she felt a tiny chubby hand rub her face.
Emory softly chuckled with a gasping smile yelling "What the heck are you doing, child?!"
Emod said "I wanna see Mr. [bleep!]" She cursed.
Emory cries out "[Bleep?!]" Emory patted her behind yellin' "No more bad words!" Emory was not a Christian but she was trying to be better.
Emory cursed out her manager one day and now Emod thinks that was his real name.
Emory tries to keep cursing down to a minimum. Emory does not have lots of sex and does do drugs from time to time, she's not an alcoholic and drinks from time to time for fuN to get DrUnK.
Is she addicted to drugs? Weed. She's secretly addicted to weed and is hiding it well.
Emory kisses Emod on the cheek and goes to make dinner.
Emod jumps off the couch and ran to find Emory...
2 months later...
Xiong Yahui moved to Houston Texas to join NASA because the place where the NASA building is located in Houston Texas, it was a very great honor for him to get this job since it was associated with astronauts and a bunch of scientists.
Xiong Yahui met Emory, an assistant. Xiong Yahui met her while she was changing Emod's diapers.
Xiong Yahui was tasked with "programming" Emod to do Rocket Science.
Xiong Yahui Was shocked and covered his eyes in embarrassment.
Emory finished up in the janitor's closet where they all were, Xiong Yahui was there for a towel because he spilled some milk on himself.
Emory asked him "Are you Xiong Yahui?! You're not as hot as Korean men are! At least South Korean men, especially the ones with chiseled structure." Xiong Yahui was happy and confused, he took it as a sarcastic compliment. She meant it as the truth, not a sarcastic compliment. Emory was kind of rude.
Xiong Yahui told her "I'm the one that is supposed to program Emod. Like my English? It's very good. Not like stereotypes you see on T.V." Emod did not care and not did Emory, Emod liked the accent of Chinese men and the stereotypical broken English, it was like a tangy tasty sour-sweet treat for her ears and her brain to think of.
Emod liked his accent without broken English as a thought, as well, because thinking of it felt great!
Emod told him to "Talk!" Because she's two years old and inappropriate.
Xiong Yahui asked, "What do want to talk about?!" Thinking that she just wanted to have a nice conversation, when in reality, Emod did not care for having a conversation, Emod just wanted to hear him speak.
Xiong Yahui voice was mentally stimulating for Emod. The kind of stretch in the accent that Xiong Yahui had forced Emod brain to try a little harder to process The words which resulted in a shoot of dopamine, dopamine is a hormone that is made to make a person feel good that is naturally created by the brain.
Emod also likes it when people speak in Japanese in anime when they add lots of fluctuation to their voice.
Too much dopamine can make her feel uncomfortable and good at the same time and sometimes the regular non-fluctuation Japanese voice or Chinese voice and accent from movies like Kung Fu movies soothe her brain and makes it easier to relax.
Long story short, he was talking to her for a long time. It was adorable BECAUSE SHE WAS ADORABLE.
it also sparked a conversation between him and Emory. They couldn't just keep talking to a 2-year-old.
Present-day, When Emod was 17-years-old...
Emory is in rehabilitation, Emory Is having regular out of wedlock sex with a bad relationship filled with arguing with this one Chinese guy from Hong Kong who moved to Houston, Texas.
His name was Xiong Yahui.
Emod was working on a ship dressed in protective hazmat gear just in case any gas got on her or just in case anything leaked and while this isn't the uniform for rocket scientists, this is just something she prefers to work in.
Emod hears from Xiong Yahui "Emory, never again!" Then Emod thought in anger "Oh my Gosh, they're breaking up, again, aren't they?! What did Emory, my frickin' mom do this time?!"
Emod was trying to go to Church but it was scary, the Christians always wondered if she an A.I. of high ability, finally, a living robot, THEY WONDERED IF SHE WAS A DEMON OR SOME EVIL SPIRIT OR GHOST OF THE CHILD THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE KILLED, WELL, IN REALITY, SHE WAS THE CHILD THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE KILLED BUT SHE WAS NEVER KILLED. THE CHIP WAS MADE TO KILL THE BABY IN THE WOMB, BUT IT DIDN'T WORK AND IT RESULTED IN HER BEING ALIVE AND BORN.
HOWEVER, SHE DOESN'T KNOW THAT.
SHE DOESN'T KNOW THAT SHE'S ALIVE. SHE DOESN'T KNOW THAT THE CHILD THAT THEY TRIED TO KILL WAS HER.
What was really scary to her was not ideas Christians had, it was really the people who didn't like Christians... The ones who wanted to get rid of all Christians.
Emod had one man she was scared of, RODWIN. RODWIN was a cult leader and he would go up to Christian churches even though he was a Satanist and casually pretend to be Christian and would talk about God and try and get them to vote for him as a pastor but in reality, he was going to screw them over.
Due to colonization, Christianity came to native Americans.
RODWIN went to this Comanche, surprisingly, CHRISTIAN Church and would try to convince them to make him their pastor but due to their beliefs, as in that Church Home, they believe that God would ordain pastors, they didn't make him a pastor...
It was a perfect choice.
There's a lot of Christians that have what they call Church homes, especially black Christians. It means to have a church home is just really you going to a church and joining the church. They may even have you sign papers to say that you've joined the church.
He was going to screw them over, so why on Earth would he ever want to be a pastor? Easy, he'd become the head of it so he could be able to control what goes on in the church and turn them against God and each other and use his position against them as the so-called "head" because they believed that the pastor was what God put over to control all the other people like a shepherd.
They also believed in pastors technically being above Deacons, which is a belief in black Christians.
Emod is walking to Church and sees RODWIN, she crept away from him into the Church.
Emod instead and turned and faced the church doors from inside the church and stood there for a very long time thinking of whether she should lock the door so Rodwin couldn't get in or leave it unlocked and even allow him to come in because she was so scared of him and thought he was so dangerous to the church members, she wasn't sure if it was a good idea to let him in.
A Christian not wanting to let someone inside of a church is not a common situation at all.
RODWIN made a plan, to make Christians look crazy and evil, he'd open a conversion camp for gays "to turn straight" when in reality, he'd never try to bring them to God, he'd do Satanic ritual abuse for his cult he was the leader of to come and ruin the gay kids by raping them.
Emod had no idea and, yet, she seriously and strongly wanted to just lock the doors.
Emod never saw this as a symbolic action, more of a way to protect her friends at the Church.
She began to lockout Rodwin, problem with this choice was that Rodwin is already a Satanist and maybe him going into the church could probably get him saved. Emod remembered when her mom would tell her about how people didn't want her mom there because she was from Bankhead, Emod paused and wondered before she could ever lock the door.
RODWIN walked in cuz she reluctantly decided to let the door go and leave it unlocked, believing she should never lock the Church doors on someone, no matter how bad they seem.
Emod went into the Church and saw a Flesh'Bot who looked strange. Emod smiled at her, the Flesh'Bot's name was Iphx. Iphx smiled back.
Emod sat next to her and noticed all the bandages on her. Emod cuddled her asking "How's your mom?" Because the Church hasn't started, people showed up but the pastor was late.
The Pastor was still trying to get ready for Church but the Pastor had a leg issue.
Iphx said, "I've been through a lot, lately." Emod kissed her on the forehead and said "You'll get a good blessing out of this."
Emod hugged her saying "Trust me." Iphx told Emod "You have a big blessing, too!" Iphx saw another Flesh'Bot named Devi enter the Church then sit next to her and hug her. Devi says "How are you?" Iphx kissed him on the cheek saying "Pretty good."
More Flesh'Bots came in. Iphx looked around in shock, then she looked at Emod saying "What's happening? Are they out of service?" Emod thinks "They must be in a Soul-Giving Ceremony." Emod looks at Iphx and pats her back saying "This must be a preparation for a Soul-Giving Ceremony, it's where you pray for a robot to have a soul."
Iphx thinks "But, if Flesh'Bots are alive, and they give them another soul, will it only be in the chip and then they have a living chip inside them, like, the person is alive but they have another person inside them or...? Like, Their chip has a soul. What if the chip doesn't like being in another person?"
Iphx knows the babies don't actually die in the womb, so she's concerned because she knows they're praying for the chip to have a soul and if the body already has one, and you ask for another to be put in a chip that's living inside the body, she's concerned it'll cause a living being to be trapped inside of another one, like, a pregnancy with no end.
Iphx thinks "This is horrible, I gotta tell them"
Iphx decides to go to the pulpit and reveal the truth of Flesh'Bots, Iphx talks herself into it even though she doesn't want to embarrass herself in front of others, having them believe and think horrible embarrassing things about her as she tirelessly bores them to death with her rambling...
But, Iphx powers through it! Iphx stood up, something that took a lot of awkward courage! Iphx struts to the pulpit then Iphx goes onto the pulpit and says "Um..." Then she froze up.
Iphx was too scared to speak until Emod yells "Don't think it will work!" Which made Iphx angry, Emod thinking her efforts would fail was like an insult!
In reality, Emod just said that because she didn't believe they could give Flesh'Bots souls.
Iphx shouted, "It will!" Then she started Preaching "You don't need a soul ceremony because I'm a testimony, I had a chip but they took it out, and guess what? I didn't die, I was still alive!" Then she takes off her bandage and shows them her cuts.
The congregation was shocked and very confused. Emod's mouth dropped onto the floor, thinking "What the fluff is this child doing?!" Iphx then yelled, "I'm alive, it's happened to others, they were still alive, they aren't dead!"
The Pastor showed up for the ceremony as she was saying that last sentence. The Church Members who were not Flesh'Bots pulled her off of the pulpit.
The pastor asks "What the heck is going on?" He was so confused. His name was Mr. Parker.
Emod took Iphx and went outside with her.
When they went back into Church, the pastor started preaching:
"If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbol. If I have prophetic powers and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing."
Iphx was sad because she didn't know she had love because she didn't know what love was.
The pastor said "Love is patient. Love is kind. Love is not envious, or boastful, or arrogant, or rude. It does not insist on its own way. It is not irritable or resentful. It does not rejoice in wrongdoing but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will come to an end. As for tongues, they will cease. As for knowledge, it will come to an end. For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part, but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end."
Iphx was confused, "How?" She wondered, "How? I've seen many people claim to love others and have those bad things for people, I'm confused. John had those feelings for me all the time, he hated me. He told me he loved me when you love somebody, you hate them, I thought you do bad things to them, that's why I don't like sex or love."
The pastor preached on "When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I fought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became an adult, I put an end to childish ways. For now, we see in a mirror dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part, then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known. Now faith, hope, and love abide these three, and the greatest of these is love."
The pastor was saying things from the bible, from 1 Corinthians 13.
After Church, they went to their homes.
Iphx sat at the table with her mother. Winnona loved Iphx and said, "I love you." And then held her hand.
Iphx said "You don't love me, love is sex. I don't like love." Winnona knew what was happening, when you've grown up as a child with someone lying to you saying that they love you, even if you didn't or don't know, that's the thing:
You don't know, you think the abuser or the sexual abuser loves you, you think your father that beats your mother loves your mother, but you don't know that isn't love at all.
Her mother said, "In America, every ten seconds, abuse is reported, for every report, two more cases of abuse go unreported, what John did to you, your old owner or daddy, he didn't love you, he was abusing you. Abuse is when you make people have sex with you, abuse is when you beat people up a lot, abuse is when you insult them a lot and manipulate them a lot."
Iphx asks "Why did he do those things to me?" Her mother said "He didn't love you and he was crazy and evil. He was evil. People don't like to say it, but in reality, honey, evil is real, it isn;t subjective, subjective means that it changes from person to person, it isn't subjective, it's just that some people don't know the difference between right and wrong, baby."
Iphx asked, "Can I teach John?"
Iphx's mother wanted to make sure to teach her daughter to keep herself safe.
Her mom said, "He may be reprobate, it's when a man is in a state where God says 'You don't listen to me, you won't change,' so you are given over to this state where you can't be changed. Sometimes, you can't change some people because they were never going to change and they don't want to be changed and they won't ever change..."
Her mother got up and went to Iphx and hugged her tightly saying "I'll love you and do to you what God wants me to do for others."
To be continued...
