"Sir, we just lost artificial gravity in sector 4. Engineering is requesting if you could go talk to... him."

The call came over the speaker in his desk from security, and Professor Owen Prinz let out an exhausted sigh. The little cretin was beginning to become more of a problem than a solution. It was incredibly smart, and agile, able to loft and carry things that far outweighed it. His latest experiment, TK-1110 seemed only interested in breaking valuable equipment aboard the station. Prinz still needed the creature though, out of eight hundred specimens, TK-1110 was the only one to actually wake up, and gain sentience. The downside was, Prinz had no idea how, genetically, and neurologically all thother specimens in their growth tanks were identical. There was no discernible difference, and as 1110 grew, and became more intelligent, it became more apparent that being contained in the lab would not work for much longer. Prinz had designed the creatures to be workers, be able to operate in confined spaces and were humans could not go. They were perfect in all ways, except the fact only one of them was operational. Prinz knew he would have to dissect it in order to discover how it was different. "Professor?"

Prinz looked at the syringe in his hand, and keyed the intercom, "in on my way, Anya."

Prinz felt himself go weightless as the elevator entered sector 4 of the station, a sigh slipped from hus lips as he clicked the heels of his shoes and the magnetic treads activated. Walking through the various labs were techs worked quickly to ensure nothing got damaged or broken when power was restored, Prinz finally reached his creations, 'bedroom'. "Authorization code, Kilo-Juliet-Alpha- 3-5-9-8." the doors unsealed as his command was accepted, and Prinz entered into the room.

"TK-1110? TK-1110..." Rolling his eyes, he tried again"Tek'et, where are you? You've been rather troublesome according to the engineers." As he waited for his creation to produce itself, he walked around the room, inspecting the various contraptions. Lifting one object for closer inspection he felt a high pitched buzz in the back of his brain, just as a streak of ruddy fur flew in front of him, and grabbed the object. "No. No. No. No. Professor can't see yet. Tek'et hasn't made it ready. Needs more parts. Professor be proud. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes." Prinz watched the creature floating upside down, it's back to him as it fiddled with the object he had been holding.
