===Vocal Response===

"My motor reflex is well within normal parameters, Morgan. Can we go and explore now...please?" Larial asked, with an almost childlike need.

[Morgan Freeman]

"Yes you have, however I meant that you should wait until after we got out of the person's earshot before telling me about them.  Not bad for your first run out though.  So, what do you think about the Celtic Corner?  Do you understand its function on Avalon Station?"

[Morgan Freeman]

"No you are not.   You are your unique individual and can do whatever you want.  Do you understand that?"

[Larial]

Larial looked at her hand in Morgan's, the sensor-mesh registered as all the usual technical data. Body Temp. 36.9 degrees Celsius, pressure 2.5psi, but her Neural Net new better than that so she placed her other hand on top of his making sure the pressure never exceeded 2.5psi.

But as for Morgan's question of what she wanted to do with her life, Larial's Positronic Neural Net was stumped.

"I do not know." She stated matter-of-factly.

[Morgan Freeman]

"Yes she does, and she learns very well too."  Morgan said to T'lana.  "I was just speaking with Larial about what interested her, maybe you can help.  She is wondering what to do with her life."

[Larial]

Larial looked down at her body and wondered as her Neural Net assimilated the information taught to her by T'lana.
When Morgan asked her the question of how she was, her Neural Net was pondering every inch of her anatomically correct body.

Looking up as though startled out of a dream, she said.

"Er...I don't know...I guess I am confused, but I am currently functioning...er...I am fine thank for asking Morgan."

Larial moved closely to T'lana and stated,

"Thank you very much T'lana, I...I actually feel something, I feel like a real woman."

Right then Larial's Neural Net shut down to replicate more Positronic Neural Networks and moved her mind up to late twenties worth of experience, in essence she was no longer a child, but a woman.

After about 20 minutes, Larial's Neural Net rebooted and she opened her eyes to a worried Morgan and an understanding T'lana.

[Morgan Freeman]

Morgan, having completed his work on the reactor and finding the crew gone decides that it is time to reopen an old project of his.  

Walking to the wreck of his ship, he enters the cargo compartment and opens a cargo bin.  

Making a few modifications, he activates Larial.

[Morgan Freeman]

"Absolutely, where would you like to go?  You have a complete list of everything on board this station and on the fleets vessels.   Might I add, I am very pleased with your progress Larial.  You have excelled far beyond where I thought you would so far in your development."

Morgan makes the final touches on Larial and closes the access port on the side of her head.

[Larial]

"Acknowledged Morgan."

An overlay schematic appeared in the upper left hand corner of her visual display, showing where they were and where to head.
So Larial set off with Morgan following towards the Celtic Corner.

The first alien species she came across to follow her test was a Vulcan.

"Na'Shaya"

Walking on she stated.

"Vulcan male, planet of origin Vulcan in the 40 Eridani System."

Further along was a human female, considering her another species, to what she was she said,

"Hello."

"Human female, planet of origin Earth, sol system."

Turning the corner and to a turbolift, there was a Klingon waiting for the turbolift.

"Hello." Stated Larial.

The Klingon looked at her strangely as she stated,

"Klingon male, planet of origin Qo'nos, Qo'nos system."

Riding the turbolift, the Klingon staying behind waiting for the next one.

On the Habitat level, there were several species to choose from, but logically the first species she came across that would conform to her instructions was a Trill.

"Hello." stated Larial.

Moving towards the Celtic Corner's entrance, she stated;

"Trill female, planet of origin Trill, joined species with a vermiform symbiont via an abdominal pouch."

With that she entered the Celtic Corner and looked around the room. The optical overlay showed her every species' information and their gender.

"Have I succeeded in my task, Morgan?"

[Larial]

Larial thought a minute on that statement of Morgan's and she couldn't understand it, what does a unique individual do?

=============

Larial disconnected herself from the recharge terminal but noticed that Morgan was fiddling with her insides still and was fascinated by the whole event.

"Morgan, seeing as you created me, does that make you my father? My reference files make allusion to that effect, but they also make reference to a mother, do I have one? Does that make me your daughter? Or am I more like a computer than an individual life form?"

[Morgan Freeman]

Morgan laughs at Larials declaration, "Of course you are a life form my dear.  I will always be there to help you when you need it, after all, what are families for if not to help?"

Walking over and sitting next to Larial, Morgan takes her hand "So, to continue our discussion, what do you want to do with your life my dear girl?"

[T'lana]

T'lana, was used to people saying how beautiful she was, but didn't really take much notice in it, emotional beings take great stock in the perceptual countenance of individuals and so she usually just tried to go with it.

"Thank you Larial." looked to Morgan.

"Am I to assume Larial has just been activated given her current cognitive skills and am I correct in also assuming that she possesses a self-perpetuating Positronic Neural Net?"

[Morgan Freeman]

"Are you doing ok Larial?  You shut down for a while, are all of your systems functioning properly?"

[Larial]

Larial opened her eyes and looked out of the crate for the first time in her life.

She climbed out of the crate, dressed in human female civilian clothing and gave Morgan a hug.

"Hello Morgan."

She lost concentration for a while and walked around the cargo hold looking and touching everything she could find, adding object telemetry to her memory engrams.
Larial was still uneasy on her feet, like a newborn taking it's first steps and enjoying every moment of it.

[Morgan Freeman]

"Alright then, please lead the way there.  I wish to see if your directional systems can interpret the schematics that are built into you correctly.  Also, I have a test for you on the way there.  I want you to talk to 4 different species of people on the way there and tell me about them after you have said hello, do you think that you can do that my dear girl?"

Morgan was already happy with the progress of Larial and was very excited about having her interact with other people with whom she had never meet.
