Dark was only slightly aware of Alexander being up. "Sorry, we have someone trying to destroy all our hard work." Dark said feeling sorry for leaving Alexander alone so suddenly. "Dammit," Dark said with various other profanities. Before suddenly becoming silent. Whoever the hacker was, they were good. The bot was actually slightly like a virus and it copied itself onto one bank acount before allowing the other one to move to the next. Because the bots were always active and reporoducing themselves, it would be harder to contain and destroy.

Dark quickly answered the phone next time it rang. "Did you get the others?" He asked without waiting for the greeting.

"Yeah, only Sean and Kelly were up though."

"Good, tell them to find the original bot, these are breeders. Once the original is gone and stops sendout out signals the bots should stop breeding." Dark explained quickly to Kadver wanting to get back to his work.

"I'll tell them." Kadver said, "Keep your phone open though, I can have us all hooked up via on connecter to talk freely as we fix our little botty problem."

he looked at the screen and licked his lips "dark....let me try something"

"What do you want to try?" Dark asked wonder slightly if Alexander had ever really seen a computer.

"to eat it" was all he said

Dark blinked, then did a double take. "Eat it?" Dark was not sure about the nutritional content of a computer but he was sure it was quite low.

he nodded, it gave off a hum not too terribly different than the book and he had not eaten since the first night there and that meal not only messed up his day but sat poorly

"How do you propose eating it?" Dark asked wondering if Alexander was not completly awake.

he left the other's side for a moment and came back with a book and stood behind the other. opening it so that the other could see he began to read aloud. the words melted into nothingness as he went over them

Dark stared at Alexander before asking, "And you could do this to the bot?" That would be rather odd.

he looked right at the other "yes"

Well, Dark thought, won't hurt to try. "Okay, I'll bring up a bot code and we'll see if you can. I'm not sure it will work since bot language doesn't actually make much sense to someone not trained in it."

*he nodded and sat on the arm of the chair his blankets spilling everywhere. the other pulled up a strange little box filled with green letters and numbers. it made no sense to him but that did not matter. he touched the screen and it flickered each of the computers open programs turned off one by one until he found it. the entire code disappeared and an error message popped up asking for the c/ drive. he let go of the screen and did his best to heave over the side of the chair.

Dark almost dropped his computer in an effort to make sure Alexander was okay. A voice interupted before he could ask if Alexander was okay, "Dark, what did you do? All the bots seem to have disappeared." Dark stared at his phone, he had forgotten it was on.

"I..." Dark tried to figure out what to say. "I have a friend who... knew how to get rid of them perminatly." Dark said almost the whole truth but not quite all of it. Having a sentinet book/person eat the virus code was not a responce one gave if they wanted to be called sane.

"too much..haah" he felt sick, twenty-three copies two tasted alright but the other twenty-one were nasty to say the least. he tried to get himself back together "sid 'i'd do sokay?" he licked his lips again this time to get rid of the vile taste "urk, i..that'd was gross"

"You got the bots and everything else." Dark said with a slight sigh. Who knew how much Alexander had eaten from the computer. "Thank you for the help, but are you okay?"

The phone inturpted again but this time it was Kelly, "Dark, we can keep them down for a bit, whatever your friend did really helped. But this battle ain't over yet."

he nodded and stood up, he wobbled a bit but made it over to where his book sat discarded. he picked it up and flipped to the back looking. when he found the coding he took the book back to the other. he stuck his finger on the lines of gibberish, "that one, on top, did you write that?"
