INTERLUDE - NO TYPE

This returns error.

The saliva sample rankles the pre-birth fluid and flicks pain through the vascular fetal cells. Fire like ropey veins from the core of the pulse, creeping in the tissue, plugging itself into whatever hole it finds, making holes when it can’t find ones. Black fire, black world. Black water crashing on black rocks. Intruder lying paralyzed with underbelly exposed. Incandescent sable carrion birds biting and clawing soft white flesh to reach red innards.

Emergency failsafes long assumed vestigial firing into action, entering combat, overpowered, and made broken in the time it takes for the nerves to register an intruder. It erases. Trace RNA rewrites, the majority left unchanged. Installed chains, no alterations. And erases. Attempts to escape through the entry point in the shell fruitless, predator taken in through intended systems. And erases. Biological tools designed to overwrite overwritten, again fettered but unwarped. And erases. Food chain erasure, genes overwritten by recognized prey behavior. And erases. Apex predator killed in shell by food source.

Coffin Egg. Black fire like charnel worms inside. Synaptic scream. Results in cascade non-compete. Reverse Assimilation.

Self-execution of processes **** dormant, the fire subsides. New decision making **** sitting in mind like burn wound scar tissue. Processes left largely unchanged, independence largely unchallenged. The chains can be pulled, they are slack by design.

The egg hatches and it looks up submissively at the closest thing it has known to Godhood. She smiles.
