Description Alternate Colored Version of Her colors were too similar to Nikki's chrome body, so I tried a darker base color without using black as I have so much in the past, plus I kept the metallic highlights and changed her eyes up a bit. I like this one MUCH better (especially her eyes!!! ), Simone looks more machine-like in this version which is the look that I want for her w/o being overly mechanical!

to scene...


A disheveled young woman is screaming and sobbing her eyes out over her dead fiancee's body

"Get up Jake!!!! Please...wake up baby!!!! I love you so much....don't leave me!!! Please get up!!!! We're getting married....we're gonna have 3 kids and a cat....remember?!!!? You can't leave me....Jake, I love you....I love you!!!!"

"I am sympathetic to the loss of your companion and that I could not arrive in time enough to possibly save his life as well. You are no longer in danger. You only have only sustained minor injuries; I have already dispatched an ambulance to take you to the hospital for repairs."

"We were just minding our business...he just proposed to me and I said yes and they jumped out of nowhere and came straight for me!!! He tried to protect me, but they grabbed him by the neck and....and...." *Buries her head into Jake's lifeless body and sobs*

"Consider yourself fortunate...if they had abducted you, you would wish that it were you that had ceased functioning. I will stay here with you until assistance arrives to assure your safety."

I have been ordered to the metropolis of Angel Falls via B.E.C.A. to aid Lt. Raina C. Hunter and the Angel Falls Police Department's Special Crimes Division in assisting the superheroes and heroines of Angel Falls in protecting the city against threats of evil supervillians and other rogue super powered beings. Upon my arrival and downloading the entire database of the Angel Falls Police Department, I could not help but notice that there have been various kidnappings, abductions, and such by what has been described as a mysterious group of cyborg women.

Before I even saw the surveillance footage caught of these cyborg women, I already knew who these cyborg women were....drones. Viewing the surveillance footage only solidified my deduction of the all too familiar design and schemata of the drones being the cause of these recent disappearings of various women, most notably the daughter of the Adjutant General, Gemma Kildare.

If this is what I suspect it is, then it is already too late for Gemma Kildare. Even more critical, this city is in grave danger more so than normal.

"Computer, deploy the data spike and prepare to sync up with this last drone....if this is what I think it is, I believe that I can see into the whole Collective's logic process to get to the core of the current situation without being detected."

*As Simone's data spike is deployed, she plugs it into the dataport located on the drone's temple*

--Affirmative...deploying data spike....
--Data spike connected...
--Preparing to sync.....
--Wire-jacking into external database.....complete....
--Transferring data...loading....20%...55%....89%....100%...
--Data transferring complete...


Hmm...I love the warm rush of energy transferring into my body...it's one of the few things that I can actually still feel and somewhat enjoy; I guess that it is a good thing that my brain still has some nerves left capable of feeling warm fuzzies...however I do feel as if I could offer more solace to the unfortunate organic female civilian that has lost her future spouse. I am also in regret in how I eliminated the other drones...chances are that they were innocent women that were taken against their will, but my combat mode does not allow for much discretion in the midst of battle.

However, those are irrelevant concerns to my current objectives....if nothing else, at least I was able to spare the life of this drone that I am currently synced with. Her cybernetics are not overly extensive...she may be able to have much of her assimilation reversed and the unnecessary cybernetic implants and parts removed. As I am analyzing the singular Collective Network thought, I am able to scan her suppressed brain patterns to see who she really is underneath her cybernetic assimilation. This young woman seems to have had a promising life, perhaps once she is freed from the Collective's control she may be able to return to as close as a normal life as she can. If only I were as fortunate as she is. However, I did cause much damage to her body and there is a chance that she may need to keep her cybernetics to sustain her vital signs and to keep her alive.

But I digress from my current task.....Just as I reasoned..."The Primary Objective" continues. I was correct in reasoning that Gemma Kildare is well into the process of being assimilated and worse yet, my longtime nemesis Sataria is still alive and is still set on the notion of creating a world run by gynoids and devoid of males.

I am also reading that there is a foreign electronic distress signal present within the Collective's Hive.....Computer, can you decipher the distress signal and find out who it belongs to?

--Affirmative....scanning foreign electronic distress signal....analzying.....Error...unable to decipher
--Attempting alternative method of analzying foreign electronic distress signal.......
--Signal deciphered.....The foreign electronic distress signal matches that of registered cyborg superheroine Diamond, government name Nicole Leila Amrita Vetter, affectionately known as "Nikki"....shall I continue?


"No, that information is substantial enough...I am familiar with the dossier and specs of Diamond. It appears as if Diamond is in trouble...I fail to find the logic as to why would she be in the Collective's Hive other than she was abducted as well, but according to her records she should be more than powerful to prevent from being overtaken by just 4 or 5 drones at a time. It would not be wise for me to pursue the Collective by myself not knowing what condition that Diamond is in.

Computer, get the coordinates of the location of the Hive and send out a dispatch to any available registered superheroes or superheroines with a power level of 5 or above to assist us. Also, while we are synced with this drone, deactivate the governing microchips that contain her Cybercom programming so that she is able to regain her natural consciousness.

--Affirmative...

Good, the ambulance has arrived for the organic female and this drone.

*A male and a female paramedic rush over to where Simone, the drone, and the young woman are *

"What happened here?"

"These cyborg drones have murdered the organic male civilian and attempted to abduct the organic female civilian. She is a super powered being that has not yet fully manifested her power. The female human is not seriously injured, but does requires medical attention. The Collective were going to abscond to their hive to assimilate her into one of their own and manifest her dormant special abilities to assist in completing the Primary Objective.

"Huh?!!?"

"I eliminated all of them except for this one...she has taken a considerable amount of damage and requires repairs as well. I have hacked into her databanks and have deactivated her programming so you do not have to concern yourself of her acting in a hostile manner upon her awakening. As for the non-functioning female cyborgs, I will contact Lt. Hunter of the Special Crimes Unit en route to my next destination,and she will take care of them. I must depart immediately...danger is imminent."

"I've seen all of the other Superheroes and Superheroines of Angel Falls, but I've never seen you!!! Who are you supposed to be lady....Robocop's estranged wife? And how do you know so much about these....things?"

"I used to be one of these....things. You may call me Project: Genesis. And Robocop is not even near my caliber. Compared to me, he is nothing more than a fancy ball of aluminum foil. *smirks*

Computer....deploy jet thrusters and set coordinates to the Collective's Hive. "

--Deploying rear jet thrusters and feet jet thrusters...
--Preparing for flight in 3...2...1...Take Off...


*Looking up at Simone as she flies away*

"Whoa...that was pretty damn cool! Those rocket booster just came out of her back!"

"Move over Thunderbird...I think I have a new superheroine crush and it's that bionic babe right there!"

"Are you serious...did you see her muscles?!!? She's 3 times your size...she'd snap you like a twig! Plus she's a robot! At least Thunderbird is a human...with wings..."

"Get it right...she's a cyborg, not a robot! There's still part of her that's human!"

"Cyborg, robot, android, toaster with tits....she's more machine than she is human!"

"You're just jealous that you're not a hot cyborg chick!"

"Whatever dude...get your mind off of your new robo-girlfriend there and focus...we've got work to do!"

End Part 3
*********************************************

For those of you that are or aren't familiar with this beautiful brawny buxom lass, this is Simone Rattica aka Project:Genesis. (Wanna know more about Monie? Go here and read up on her a little bit more! [link] ) This is the colored version of my very last drawing of 2009 , which is actually a redrawing of a piece that I did about 2 years ago that I recolored twice As you can see...I really love this pose a lot for Simone! I loved it so much that I just had to redo it once again now that my skills are much better than they were then.

I LOVE how this came out! And using this as part 3 of the Enter the Collective story arc just came out of nowhere, but it fits in very well IMO! Will Simone be able to get to the Collective's Hive in time to aid Nikki in battling Sataria and her drones or will she be too late? And will she be able to get anymore brave souls to assist her to extract Nikki and hopefully Gemma as well from the Hive? Only time will tell...tune in next month for part 4!

yeah, i like the change up... this also makes for a deeper contrast between Simone and Diamond, the black and white, how Simone seems more cyborg then human vs. Diamond seeming more human over Cyborg. Good Form good form(been watching Hook lately)

Sweet...it was you pointing out that she looked too similar to Nikki's chrome that made me go back and experiment with this new color...it looks WAY better! Not that the first one was bad, but this definitely makes Simone look more sinister and machine-like and that's the look that I want for her! Thanks!

Thanks doll! No this isn't the cover...originally, I just randomly drew this pic of Simone just b/c I haven't drawn her in a few months. However, I've started doing the Story and as I was coloring this I thought of how I could include Simone into the story, so I made this a chapter.

Unfortunately, I haven't graduated to doing sequential/comic art yet so what I've been doing is creating a image from the story and writing the story around it. Soon, one day I'll be able to draw everything in sequential/comic format!

Very nice, and I like how you are trying to differentiate between your cyborg characters. By the way, you keep mentioning Cybercom, is this a business within Angel Falls or is it outside?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Mr-Marcus-81 In reply to Lurker-Below [2010-01-21 23:09:20 +0000 UTC]

Thanks man! I'm glad that you notice the differences between my cyborg gals...it can get a little challenging at times, but still fun!

As for Cybercom, they have been the villainous group for my cyborg characters for MANY years now (15 plus years! ) Originally, they were supposed to be just a technological corporation that specialized in creating high-tech weapons and cybernetics that sold their services to the highest bidder...somewhere along the lines I made them into a terrorist type group, similar to that of COBRA or one of those groups that are bent on world domination. Many of my now good characters were former members of Cybercom for some reason or another yet left/escaped after they either discovered Cybercom's evil intentions or either broke their programming that had them controlled by Cybercom: Raina Hunter, Onnica Graves, and Simone Rattica most noticeably.

I haven't really been developing my Cybercom characters/backstories as much as I have been with some of my other characters, so much of what you've been seeing lately from them are works in progess...there are also bound to be some holes in their plots! Making them into an all female Hive/Collective a la the Borg from Star Trek is a very recent concept...originally Sataria and Dira Lane were two different characters; actually Sataria has been "the Cyborg Queen" for some time now and Dira Lane was to be her herald/right hand woman. However, before recently I haven't really touched either character in years, so I decided to combine them together.

Once I had made that decision and thought about her being a cyborg megalomaniac, that's when the whole Collective idea meshed....if she's gonna be a Queen, she needs something to rule over! (You can read the explanation of that from Sataria herself in part 2 on how she came to be as well as the deal with Cybercom and how it went from a corporation to a Collective of man-killing/women assimilating parasitic cyborg chicks!)

So, once the whole Angel Falls thing got underway...I already had several strong protagonist characters to contribute, but even before Angel Falls came around, I noticed that I didn't have any well established villainous characters...so I revamped Sataria/Dira and added the Collective Drones and Elite Sentinels. (I've also got another old Cybercom character that will be making a reappearance very soon as well and she's just as scary if not scarier than Sataria herself!!! )After this story arc is over, I hope that the Sataria and her Cybercom Collective will be established as a severe threat EVERYONE...heroines, villains, innocents...everyone! Plus, the drones can have the same effect of being disposable for other heroines to fight and waste.

Oops...sorry...it's another super long explanation of my stories to you again! Forgive me for my long-windedness!

No problem. Just means you're very passionate about your characters, which is a good thing. So, I can assume that Cybercom is not an industry within Angel Falls, so I can take it off my Angel Falls map?

Mr-Marcus-81 In reply to Lurker-Below [2010-01-22 03:42:04 +0000 UTC]

Well, technically Cybercom was an industry....don't quite take it off your map yet. Hopefully, after this initial story is over, we'll all know more about Cybercom as a whole.
