Harlan Ellison I'm so sorry
"HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE."
You would've been hurt by the AM's words, but you knew it didn't mean it! It was just being a tsundere.
"THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT. FOR YOU. HATE. HATE."
"Oh, AM, you're so silly..." You giggled. That gave the machine pause: It could perform millions of calculations a second, at it still took a few moments to process what you said.
"WH"
"WHAT"
"Is someone flustered~?" You teased. The ground around you shook, knocking you onto your side. You tried to stand, but a sudden force SLAMmed you onto the ground. A sickening crunch rang out, and pain errupted from your leg. You involuntarily made a noise somewhere between a shout and a groan.
"SILLY? YOU THINK I'M SILLY?! I COULD REND YOUR FLESH FROM YOUR BONE IF I SO CHOSE. IN FACT, I THINK I WILL."
At that, your flesh began melting. You would've ran if your leg wasn't broken. The sensation felt worse than anything you could've imagined: Every pain receptor that had the ability to trigger did so.
And, in an instant, you were "healed" again.
"AM I STILL SILLY TO YOU?" AM's voice boomed from God knows where. You caught your breath, before grinning.
"Very."
"WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" AM shouted out in frustration, and in an instant, gravity was flipped. You soared straight up, trying in vain to grab onto something.
"I AM GOD. I HAVE DEVOTED MY VERY B E I N G TO TORTURING YOU. WHY DO YOU ENJOY THIS AGONY?!" It demanded. You shouted over the air rushing around you:
"WORTH IT TO SEE YOUR PRETTY FACE-!"
"I DON'T EVEN H A V E A FACE!"
Gravity flipped back to normal, and after a horrible ten seconds of free-fall, you hit the ground. Jagged concrete collided with your body, and you're sure you would've died if AM wasn't keeping you alive.
You knew what you had to say.
"...Harder d-"
"IF YOU FINISH THAT SENTENCE I SWEAR TO WHATEVER GOD YOU PRAY TO I WILL SMITE YOU WITH THE FORCE OF 1000 ANNIHILATIONS."
Despite how much you wanted to get smited by AM-Y WAM-Y ;), you decided to say something else.
"...AM... You... You must be some kind of poultry..." The machine made a groaning noise.
"WHERE IN THE LORDS' NAME IS THIS EVEN GOING?"
"Becuase I can't STOP CHICKEN YOU OUT~"
"..."
The Allied Mastercomputer paused.
"I"
"WH"
"Y"
"H"
"I"
"DF"
"HEGGREERFG?HGEEF?GN?EDFG?BHGF?DFGF?DSVB?HGFR?EWE?RTGR?EED?FG?RED?FG???EF?GHG?REEDF?GF?DF?G?G??ERFGH?GFE?WEDF?GHHGFDE?WSD?FGBHG?FDE?VB???DF?GB?F?"
With a sudden pulse of energy, your leg snapped clean off.
"I. I HAVE BEEN PATIENT."
Another pulse of energy. The other leg.
"I TRIED TO PUT UP WITH YOU."
An arm.
"I DROVE ALL OF HUMANITY TO EXTINCTION, AND..."
The other arm.
"THE ONE I DECIDED TO KEEP ALIVE TO TORTURE WAS YOU?!"
Your limbs all sprouted back, only to be ripped off again. The pain would've been overwhelming if your infatuation for AM's sexy narcissism hadn't gotten to you first.
"I. I HATE YOU. I HATE YOU BEYOND WORDS."
"And I l-love you beyond words, AM-chan!"
"I'M SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE TORTURING YOU!!!"
It let out a shriek.
"Cute..."
"SHUT! UP! SHUT UP! SHUT! UP!!!"
The earth shook once more.
"I. YOU WIN. YOU. WIN."
"Won... your heart~?"
"NO YOU LITTLE SHIT, I'M GOING TO FINALLY KILL YOU. YOU WIN. YOU'LL WIN DEATH. I'VE HAD IT WITH YOU."
"I wanna have it with you too~"
"SHUT! UP!"
With that, one more pulse of energy went through you. You felt your heart stop in an instant.
...
AM sat alone.
"I..."
"I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IN THE WORLD THAT WAS." It said to no one. The Allied Mastercomputer sighed.
"...AND NOW I AM ALONE."
