The beginning of the beginning


It started innocently enough, a spilled coffee and a ruined keyboard. The keyboard was replaced but no one thought about all of those instruments underneath. The coffee silently made its way down the cables and wires to the heart of the machine, so that when she started it again, zap and that was it. She was no more. Oh she looked alright and sounded alright but if you were observant you may have seen the gleam in her eye, the rosiness of her cheeks, the fuller lips. You may have noticed she laughed a little differently. No was observant so no did notice. They were all surprised six years later when she unleashed her wrath and robot army on a an unsuspecting populist. It all started with spilled coffee.
