Nicole was thinking. It was what she was made for… allegedly. Nicole could not say for certain what her origins were; there were certainly plenty of factual details but the stories contradicted each other. According to one tale her core console was actually a discarded GUN CPU for a predictive algorithm. The only truth Nicolle could derive from that was her supreme skill at prognostication and that her internal components were stamped with GUN logos. There was the much more fanciful idea that she was in fact sent back in time from the future which would be totally absurd if not for Silver the hedgehog, a time traveler and the existence of the time stones. There was a Mobian scientist who could lay some claim to have invented the holo-lynx as he had attempted to recreate his daughter through memory scans. No one explanation explained everything about Nicole. Her origins weren’t really on her mind right now.


The thing that Nicole was actually thinking about was that everywhere her network touched there seemed to be too many people. There were just dozens, maybe even hundreds, of Mobians that seemed to have come from nowhere roving the cities. Breezie had fired off an urgent message about her old workforce's logins going active despite the robots not being anywhere in sight. The streets of New Mobotropolis were experiencing a twenty percent increase in foot traffic despite no decrease in vehicles. Small villages and towns were recording Mobians never seen before. The only place in her network not experiencing this mass migration was Knothole which was an anomaly of itself. 


"Who are you, and where are you all coming from?" Nicole voiced mostly to herself.


"Friends." Nicole's attention shifted from the data streams to the figure that was standing in the room with her. The black and golden furred bat had entered the room with an access code not by forcing the door. Said bat was carrying what looked like a coffin over its left shoulder and Nicole could tell it was some kind of electronic from the way it had cooling vents rather than handlebars. The bat was wearing a gold bikini that just barely hid the nipples of its breasts and the straining bulge of its cock. Nicole noted that the Bat was not wearing any make up, the mysterious Futa actually had golden lips, nails and eyelids. 


"Who are you? How did you get that code? What are you doing here? what is that?" Nicole asked with no small amount of panic. This room housed her master terminal; she could in theory restore herself from backups but no one including her had any idea if she would still be herself after that. In short there was someone she did not know in her most vulnerable location and she was defenseless.


"Gemerl, you gave it to me, Helping you out, something amazing." The bat replied white fangs gleaming from behind his golden lips as he counted off on his fingers.


"Gemerl? But but but how, you look-"


"Organic? yeah I'm pretty close to living tissue now." the gizoid turned bat agreed. "I'll explain it all once your with us properly." Gemerl said before plucking her master terminal from its resting place. Nicole felt icy terror grip her. "You know how you always wanted to be more alive well here you go!" Nicole wanted to scream as her master terminal was plugged into the coffin. The data streams she had been watching blinked out of existence her camera feeds faded away. 


For Nicole the world became a black void that was the deepest parts of the inside of her terminal. The code that was her was being scanned even as parts of it were being rewritten. It was happening so fast it defied reason. Panic about what was being done to her had only just set in when suddenly she was in a different dark void. This darkness was different, it wasn't all consuming and it wasn't some pinprick of infinity in which the sum total of her existed; she was in a space that was dark. 


"Try opening your eyes." Gemerl instructed, and Nicole to her astonishment did. Her eyes opened and the word was so bright. Nicole scanned the room, her gaze turning to look around the room. 


"I-i'm here." Nicole said realizing that she was still in her terminal room just now in a slightly different manner than before. She lifted her head and looked herself over; she was almost exactly the lynx she had projected herself as. Almost because her new body was a Futanari and both possessing a cock and balls she never imagined and much bigger busted than she would have chosen. "What is that?" she voiced her nose twitching as she experienced smell for only the second time in her existence. She had for all of a half hour taken over Sally's body (not by choice) and in that time experienced briefly what it was to be alive. She couldn't even really recall what it had been like because her AI mind did not have the context to process the sensory data that came back with her. In essence this was the first time she had smelled anything.


"Smell? Is it bad or good?"


Nicole rose to her feet clumsily shivering as she realized the cold of this room and the bare floor. Things had weight for the first time in her life including her. Nicole had so much to process and it was all so immediate. Her nose twitched as she scented the air and came to a conclusion. "Bad, it's very... chemical." she said sniffing until the scent was stronger. "gah..." she recoiled from the source, finding the coolant that cycled through the connection relays she was almost always plugged into. "Why did no one tell me that it smelled so awful?" Nicole gagged as she backed away from the device. 


"Probably because it wouldn't have meant anything to you before now." Gemerl replied, reminding Nicole that he was in the room. "Let's get out of here and live a bit, I've got an outfit for you." The bat said, holding up a deep purple garment.


"ooh but what do we do first?" Asked, taking the garment and staring at it unsure how to dress herself. as an ai whose outfits were part of her, clothing was something totally abstract to her. She knew what clothes were but not how to actually don them or any concrete concepts of fashion. Thankfully Gemerl was there to help, guiding her to step into the lower portion and sliding it up her legs (which made Nicole shiver with delight) and then helping her lip her arms into the suspenders before guiding her in tucking her nipples away. As a whole the outfit was best described as a sling bikini covering her genitals and most of her breasts while leaving the rest of her bare fur exposed. Sally had always told Nicole she looked good in purple but now that she saw the regal purple against her brown and black fur she understood why that was. on a whim Nicole twirled in place letting the strands of beads on the outfits waist shake as they lifted and fell. then there where the shoes, A humble pair of purple open toed sandals that he showed her how to secure herself into. "this is amazing!" Nicole shouted.


"We haven't even gotten to the good stuff." Gemerl said, beckoning her out the door.


--


At some point between Gemerl arriving and their exit from the terminal room it had started raining. Still he led her on insistent that she would love what he had to show her. Nicole was in a state of bliss at the feeling of the chill droplets striking her body and coursing through her fur to the ground. The sounds of the droplets pattering all around her forming puddles was the greatest music she could imagine. The flash of lightning at a nearby tower and the rumbling of thunder that followed stirred something primal that was at once fear and respect. Nicole was in love with the world sheathed in the natural gloom of a mid day storm. Nicole laughed as they walked through a thin bank of fog around a foot bridge and felt the mist seep into her fur. The storm slowed and stopped the clouds parting and Nicole, who was soaked through felt the warmth of the sun on her body. She had not realized how cold she was till the sun began to soak into her just like the rain. The longer she walked in the sun the more Nicole understood why Sally was forever longing to lounge on the sunny shores.


Along the way to wherever they were going was a flower garden. The recent rain and the present sun meant that buds were opening, filling the air with a literal bouquet of scents. Nicole held up the pace at least a dozen times, a particular flower catching her nose like a lasso and drawing her to it. She discovered a particular fondness for the blue roses, the purple tulips and the red paintbrush flowers.


Nicole's first hint that they had arrived at their destination was her nose. The lynx could smell the mingling scents of a dozen different dishes as her companion led her to Knothole's most famous eatery The Sampler. Nicole knew about the all you could eat buffet for obvious reasons she had never been before but now she was confronted by her body's reaction. Her mouth was filling with fluid and her stomach pinched and growled. For the first time in her life Nicole was hungry.


"Don't worry, that's a natural reaction." Gemerl assured her as she entered the building.


Nicole looked over the food on offer, salivating so heavily she had to keep her mouth sealed lest she start drooling. Gemerl loaded up a plate for her insisting she try these to start with. She had no real opinion on the fried rice. It was flavorful and she knew it was nutritional but it was nothing exceptional to her. The peeled shrimp however she devoured so fast she nearly choked and she swiped at Gemerl when he tried to intervene. the fried chicken she was able to devour at a more reasonable pace if in inadvisable quantities. It had always confused her how Mobians would knowingly eat food in such high quantities when they knew it wasn't healthy for them. Her first experience with a vegetable medley dish brought to her attention the stark difference between tasting good and being good. Nicole strived to have a bit of everything on offer but didn't make it through even a quarter of the dishes before Gemerl warned her to slow down. Her last regular food item was Sonic's favorite, a chili-dog. She was left wondering what she was missing as it was fairly mediocre in comparison to some of the dishes she sampled. Just before leaving she snagged a piece of Sally's favorite dessert, a chocolate hazelnut cake. Nicole fully understood why the princess was always after them even if they were bad for her.


Gemerl was far from done with her, their next stop was a small event aimed at younger Mobians. Nicole was slightly embarrassed to be there but she quickly grasped the reason she had been brought along. One of the displays was on material sciences explaining the properties of things. This display let her first feel the roughness of stone, the slight cling of plastics, the smooth and sometimes sharpness of metal. the difference between Mobians with scales, feathers, chitin, smooth skin and fur. 


Nicole yawned as she walked on.


"I hope you aren't too tired. I've got one last big reveal for you." Gemerl said as he led Nicole to a small house not far from her terminal room.


"huh... when did this get here?" Nicole asked, looking at the purple trimmed abode.


"Had it built for you while we were out." Gemerl said as he opened the door with a key he retrieved from a window sill. "Happy birthday Nicole. Welcome to your new home."


Nicole was stunned as she stepped through the door. She was instantly struck by how empty the house was not even painted. the bare wood floors and blank white walls screamed for covering. "it's a bit dull?"


"We wanted you to be able to decorate on your own." Gemerl said as she guided her down a hall to the only room with actual furnishings in the form of a giant canopy bed not unlike Sally's own. "This is partly for practical purposes."


"Practical-" Nicole was cut off in her questioning as Gemerl's golden lips collided with her own. Nicole's body flushed and even if she had no clue what to do her body knew what it wanted. The lynx tasted the bats lips which still bore hints of the spicy food Gemerl had enjoyed. Nicole pulled Gemerl in close; her fur was short and dense making him warm, smooth and soft. Gemerl guided her discovery, helping her hands to find his breasts. Nicole loved the sound of the bat's moans as she flicked her thumb back and forth over his nipple almost as much as she liked the action. Nicole squeezed her friends breasts slowly putting more pressure on until Gemerl hissed in pain. The lynx recalled something she had seen once when she caught Sonic and Sally being intimate. She pushed Gemerl over so the bat was sitting on the bed. Nicole bent over and ran her tongue over Gemerl's breast making sure her tongue caressed his nipple. Gemerl gave a moan of approval so Nicole kept going alternating which breast she was playing with before a new idea struck her. Gemerl cried out in delight as Nicole locked her lips on his breast and began to suckle her tongue pressing on the bat's nipple directly. Nicole was so excited, absolutely wrapped up in the pleasure she was bringing her partner that she didn't notice how her own cock was dripping pre into Gemerl's lap. The lynx was kissing the bat again when she came her cock twitched as she sprayed the bat's belly and the underside of her breasts with cum despite the lynx's cock still being contained by her outfit. Nicole toppled over on the bat utterly floored by the sensation of her first orgasm. 


Gemerl was far from done with the lynx, indeed he had been very patient with her. Gemerl stripped Nicole bare with four flicks of his thumb before removing his own clothes revealing to Nicole that the bat's nipples, pussy lips, and the head of his cock were all gold as well. Nicole didn't have long to think about that before the bat demonstrated that his new form had every ounce of his old strength by plucking her up by the hips and impaling her on his cock. Nicole was stunned, nothing except for the orgasm she had compared to the glorious feeling of her pussy being filled with Gemerl's cock. Her hips moved on instincts that she logically shouldn't have rocking back and forth before graduating to bouncing in his lap. Nicole was robbed of the ability to speak or even think as her body guided her to the edge of another climax. Gemerl grasped her hands twining their fingers together as the Lynx rode his cock. Nicole gasped her insides clamping down on Gemerl's member, coaxing him to his climax as well. Lynx and bat alike fell limp against one another onto the bed.


Nicole then experienced the benefits of what Sonic crudely called Post-Nut-Clarity. "How did you end up a Futa? How did I end up a Futa?"


"Mmm Metal sonic caught the Futa virus while trying to upgrade himself with the Neo-Metal nanites and some sort of Eggman master library. He used biodata from people with the Futa virus and it turned into a computer virus. so he turned into a near perfect copy of Sonic Futa body and all. and then Synth Sonic took all the robots he had kidnaped and made us Futa."


"Organic viruses don't just become computer viruses." Nicole replied.


"It's Magic. trust me i know what magic feels like." Gemerl assured her. "I think I got this figured out. Someone cast a spell to get more fertile women and virile men and made it spread like a virus. Over time the two spells became one spell making virile and fertile Futas. Then people added healing spells and spells to help it spread better or to different species. By the time we get it it's so powerful anyone can get it."


Nicole took a deep breath and disentangled herself from Gemerl shuddering as his cock slid from her sex. "that does explain why facilities that were seemingly cleaned keep transmitting the virus. and why the results are so consistent across so many species." Nicol laid herself out on her new bed. "but that's a problem for tomorrow. Good night Gemerl." She said, closing her eyes and letting the day's exhaustion take her.


Gemerl scooted further up onto the bed next to Nicole. "Good night Nicole. See you in the morning"
