As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows over the newly secured research facility, Theresa and Lucas‘ teams parted ways, each returning to their own camps.
Just before pulling away, Lucas paused his vehicle and called out, “You got a satellite phone?”
“Nope.”
“What about a radio station?”
“Sure do.”
The entire city had gone dark. Power was out, and allnd–based signal towers were down. The only remainingmunications came from satellites overhead.
But even satellite links wouldn’tst forever. Without maintenance, they’d eventually fall from orbit or fail altogether.
Theresa had never used a satellite phone in her previous life–but she had relied on something humbler and more dependable–the radio.
Basic devices like radios and fax machines–anything that could transmit and receive low–frequency signals–served as rudimentary radio stations.
By theter years of the age of camps, nearly every settlement had one.
The moment Lucas mentioned it, she knew exactly what he meant.
Of course<b>, </b>she had a radio station.
Her home was full of electronics she could repurpose formunication.
She just hadn’t had anyone worth contacting–until now.
“Give me your.radio frequency,” Lucas said.
Night had just fallen when Theresa returned safely to her camp at 6:30 p.m. and headed straight into the
bunker.
Cooking, feeding the dogs and chickens–all that went back to Kyle’s to–do list.
Theresa had more pressing matters<b>. </b>
Rubbing her hands in anticipation, she approached what she knew would be her biggest prize of the day.

Absolutely. As soon as the word left her mouth, a sleek holographic terminal materialized on the second floor of the bunker.
She stepped forward and pressed the power button. Lights flickered on. A holographic screen lit up, revealing a miniature digital version of herself.
The figure grew more defined until, after three seconds, it opened its eyes and looked straight at her.
“Greetings, my dear Theresa! Please give me a name.”
Theresa smiled with satisfaction. “Your name is Tessa.”
“Yes, my dear Theresa! I’m ready to serve!”
As Tessa’s calm, synthetic voice echoed through the room, every device on the second floor beeped and lit up, their power indicators blinking as if suddenly synced to a single system.
“Theresa, I am now connected to all electronic systems within the camp. I will monitor and manage camp operations around the clock.”
Theresa couldn’t be happier.
Tessa might not have a physical form, but she was no less powerful for it. In fact, she was now the brain of the entire camp.
The surveince cameras became her eyes. The radar system–her senses. The patrolling UAVs were her hands and weapons<b>. </b>
Every system, every machine, was now an extension of her will.
From now on, Theresa wouldn’t need to micromanage every little thing. If the radar detected an intruder, Tessa would immediately dispatch UAVS. No need to report in or wait for instructions–she would <b>assess</b>, warn, and if necessary, engage.
If things turned dangerous, the UAVS would retreat automatically. No more losses from waiting on Theresa’s go–ahead.
In short, Theresa’s camp finally had a mind of its own.
She could now step away without worry, knowing someone–or something–was always watching.
Tessa would be her eyes, her voice, her judgment.
Even day–to–day administration–like tracking resident points, handling trade requests, or managing production–could be delegated. All it took was one terminal installed in the residential zone.
No more relying on Yuki to run errands and deliver messages all day.
People needed rest. Machines didn’t.

She now had the ultimate camp manager–one that never tired, never questioned orders, and would never betray her.
“Excellent. Tessa, from this moment on, you are responsible for all operations at zing Sun Camp. Monitor everything. At all times.”
“Yes, my dear Theresa!” Tessa twirled once in the holographic light before disappearing from the disy.
Theresa was already thinking about how to expand Tessa’s capabilities even further.
The next morning, she loaded a truck full of supplies and set out for the residential zone, Kyle riding shotgun.
