Chapter 3 by Kingdom_Come Kingdom_Come

Can she control it?

No

"It's not supposed to be able to work on humans!" the first Zoe said. The two identical women were pacing in a circle around the lab while Cameron rubbed his neck worriedly.

"I wasn't even in the machine!" the other Zoe said.

"Babe, er, babes..." his wives flashed him a dirty look, "Zoe...s. We HAVE to tell somebody about this now."

"NO!" the women said in perfect sync.

"Amber said, 'no human trials!'" one of the Zoe's said presenting the other like Vanna White, "Here we have proof of your incompetence!"

"MY in-" Cameron said, "Yes, I slipped, but you're the one who crawled inside of it."

"We've both crawled inside of it at one point or another!" the other Zoe said. The other one looked at her in confusion.

"Not you! Me and him!" The Zoe who had spoken said.

"Don't talk to me like I'm a stranger!" the other Zoe said, "I'm you!"

"ZOES!"

"WHAT?" they shouted in sync again.

"Arguing about this won't fix anything," Cameron said, "We need to figure out what happened and what to do next." One Zoe slumped into the nearest chair and sighed in exhaustion.

"I want to go home, babe," she said, "I can still remember what happened in the machine and I can't be around it anymore today." The other Zoe laid her hand on her shoulder, then the one who was seated looked up at her doppelganger and held her hand.

"That's fair," Cameron said, "Let's go."

"When can't all go to the car at once," the Zoe who was standing said.

"We'll go first," the other one said, "Then you follow us ten minutes later. Wait, you don't know where it is, do you?"

"Of course I know where it is!" Zoe insisted, "Why wouldn't I?"

"You have my memories?" the other Zoe asked.

"You're the one who popped out of my head like goddamn Athena!" Zoe said.

"I popped out of your head?" the other Zoe said flabbergasted, "I crawled out of the machine first!"

"That's impossible," Zoe said.

"Cameron which of us was here first?" they both looked at their husband expectantly. He glanced back and forth between them for a second.

"I think I've been keeping track of you both pretty well," Cameron said, "That smudge on your face... Left Zoe... wasn't there when you first crawled out of the machine, you got it when you were crawling away from Right Zoe."

"So you finally paid attention for once," Left Zoe said.

"Excuse me!"

"Look, babe," she said, "I am a lot less pissed at you than you deserve right now. My entire body still feels like a tuning fork. I was ripped apart at the subatomic level and I am going to remember it for weeks!"

"Be nice!" Right Zoe scolded her, "He's going through a lot as well."

"You're not sharing the same emotions," Cameron observed, "So you're not a hive mind."

"Don't analyze me right now!" Right Zoe snapped at him, "We'll do science again later. Now, let's go to the car."

"Right," Left Zoe said, "I'll follow you in ten minutes. Gives me time to clean up here. By myself."

The Zoe that stayed behind grabbed a broom and finished the last of the toast that had been duplicated. Bare toast with mustard wasn't the most appetizing thing ever, but she was famished right now. It was no wonder considering how much energy she must have spent duplicating herself, but realistically the effort should have killed her outright. Again, and for real this time.

The technology was still in its infancy, so there were a lot of unknowns. This was uncharted territory and there were dragons on the map. As she swept she glanced at the gaping door of the replicator and felt a shiver run down her spine. She quickly closed the door so she wouldn't have to be reminded of it and swept all the dirt and trash into a pile.

But when she got down to sweep it into the dustpan, she felt a tickle in her nose. She plugged her nose to stifle the sneeze, and she felt it go away. Then she exhaled slowly.

"a-a-AAAACHYOOO!" the sneeze came anyway. Her eyes were watering from the dust and she tried to wave away the air in front of her face.

"I think it's been ten minutes now," she heard a voice behind her say. Her voice. Zoe peeked over her shoulder and saw yet another Zoe peeking back over hers.

"Noooooo," they groaned.

"Now how are we supposed to get to the car?" one of them asked.

"You circle around through financing," the other one said, "And I'll go around outside."

"Good idea," her newest doppelganger said.


"Come on. Come on!" Cameron said to her when she arrived, "I thought we wanted to get out of her." That Zoe made sure she wasn't followed then climbed into the back seat.

"Don't go yet, there's another one coming," she said.

"What do you mean, another one?" the other Zoe asked. She pointed across the parking lot where the third Zoe was looking around in paranoia.

"You didn't..." Cameron said.

"I couldn't help it," she said, "I sneezed!"

"Sneezed," Cameron said, "You sneezed last time too, that might be the trigger."

"Is that it?" the Zoe in the front seat asked, "That'll complicate things given it's allergy season."

"We'll wear breathing masks," the other Zoe said as the third Zoe finally reached the car.

"Let's go. Now," she said as she slid into the back seat, "I wasn't very subtle about trying to get out of here."


They drove home in complete silence after that and Cameron made certain the garage was closed before his wives piled out of the car.

"Finally," one of them said, "I'm starving."

"Me too," another Zoe said and raided the fridge for leftovers. Between the three of them, the fridge was empty within fifteen minutes leaving Cameron with a stale Hot Pocket. When they were finished they ordered pizza.

"What is this movie night?" Cameron asked, "Wanna watch Attack of the Clones?"

"God no!" one Zoe said,

"And that's not funny!" said another.

"Well," the third one said, "Maybe a little bit."

"I'm not really in the mood for movie night anyway," the first Zoe said, "It seems a little ghoulish."

"How so?" Cameron asked and all three women looked at him somberly.

"You really remember it, huh?" he asked.

"Vividly," one of them said.

"I'll need time to come to terms with it," she said, "It was bad enough getting vaporized-"

"Technically we were ionized," the third Zoe interjected.

"And now I have to deal with two more of the most annoying person I know."

"Me is a crowd, right," one of them said.

"So what's the plan for tonight?" another Zoe asked.

"We're going to need sleeping arrangements," yet another Zoe said, "I get dibs on the master bed."

"Uh uh, no," the third Zoe said, "You can't just call dibs. It's my bed too."

"I'll sleep on the couch if you want to divvie up between the two beds," Cameron suggested.

"I think you should decide which one of us gets to sleep with you, babe," one of her said and they all looked at him.

"Can you all tell yourselves apart from each other?" he asked.

"I think we can now."

"Which one is the original then?" the one in the middle raised her hand.

"Okay then. Can you two share the guest bed, just for tonight?" he asked.

"We'll live if that's what you mean," one Zoe said sullenly then got ready for bed. First, however, all three of them converged on the master bedroom because that's where all of their clothes were. The first Zoe grabbed a red tanktop, the second grabbed a blue one, and the third wore white.

"Turn around, you two," the first Zoe scolded the others as she undressed. Cameron tried to respect their privacy as well, but he stole a glance behind him and was awestruck. Although he only saw them from the back, watching the three identical women undress was one of the hottest things he had ever seen. They weren't in sync, but their motions were very similar. One Zoe showed him just a tiny peek of sideboob and she shook her perky tits as she slid the shirt over her head. The Zoe in the middle let her blonde hair cascade down her back like a golden waterfall and stretched her arms languidly. Then the third Zoe, the one on the left, wiggled her cute bubble butt as she slid into a fresh pair of panties. Then they finished and Cameron turned around quickly to hide his growing erection.

"Good night Zoe's," one of them said.

"Good night Zoe's," the others echoed and left the master bedroom.

"I'll need more clothes," Zoe Prime said and crawled into bed, "And more toothbrushes."

"Let's worry about that later," Cameron said, "Get some sleep. We had a long day."

"No fucking kidding," she said and was asleep as soon as she hit the pillow.

What's next?
