"No. She was my friend and she trusted me. What could be more important than a friend? Either help me, or leave me alone. I've had enough of all this."
>"... Ok. Maybe there is a way I could help you. But you have to do something for me first."
"Can you tell me more about project Alpha, so that I'll be prepared when I run into another monster."
>"Well, it was before my time. As far as i understand it all, they started farely simple. They studied AIs and tried to create genuin artificial emotions. They were succesfull at first. Simple emotions like fear, pain, hunger could be easily generated. But they never were able to produce the more complex ones, like love or happiness, so they started to make their computers more complex. They started to insert organic materials, brain parts from corpses or geneticaly designed neurological parts. They created new live in tubes and found things they never intended to study. I dont know what exactly but it was more profitable than their first project. So in the end they kind of cancelled Alpha. They send down all the useless experiments and creatures they considered death ends. Professor Schwarz used them one last time in his ambition to finish Alpha. The company gave him the trash they didn't need anymore and the personal they thought would be expenable. The things he did where terrible, but we stayed. He said as soon as he'd succeed, we would all be rewarded."
"What happened? Why isn't there any food?"
>"Professor had a breakthrough last week. A breakthrough that killed him and will kill everybody in here. The people on the higher level sealed the exits to stop it from escaping. They didn't wait for the staff to evacuate. Now the rations are running out, and it's impossible to contact the outside world."
