HRS DEPARTMENT , MIT, USA

Sitting around a round conference table Zacharias remembered the way he saw Lucifer enter the Assembly Hall of MIT.

The Assembly hall of MIT became dead silent. Not a single murmur could be heard. The doors opened gently and heavy thuds of boots were heard. All the camera men of MIT and Paparazzi stopped the recordings.

It was a world-wide rule of not to take any recordings or snap of the Lucifer Acheron Aphelion. There came the god. He was dressed in a smart Armani black tux. His feet cladded in shiny black heel dress boots. Gucci probably.

His breast pocket was adorned with a grey silk cloth piece and diamond studded broach with long trails of diamonds trailing down till his waist and fastened back on the button of the suit jacket. His grey tie with a similar diamond brooch of skull adorning it.

His jet black hair gelled back and styled to perfection with his steeled grey eyes piercing peoples' souls. His pale white skin looked ghostly with his jaw sharp enough to cut a slab of butter.

His strides were heavy and regal. Not a single person spoke or made a noise till he treaded past the archway and climbed the podium. All eyes were fixed on him.

People sitting on the side seat of the archway gulped when he passed them and shuddered after feeling his aura. His expressionless face and cold eyes scanned the crowd and nodded at his brothers briefly ignoring everyone else.

"Greetings. Ladies and Gentlemen. " He spoke. His voice cold with certain steel. Yet so deep and smooth like a silk. The women in the audience nearly fainted with pleasure just by hearing his voice. Men were intimidate.

"Do have a seat." He further added. And then people realized they were still standing in respect. They sat on their respective places after.

"As the honorable Dean said, I am going to fund the HRS series. Some people may think it is due to my brothers being part of the team. But it is not the case. I see potential in the designs. If it is successful in upcoming years, our world would surely be a better and stronger place to be.

We would be having a Humanoid army, cleaners, store managers, clerks and many more members present to serve us being Robots. Though it is in the far distant future, it also comes with a lease.

The major one is a single Humanoid costs more than 7 million US dollars. Which is not a joke. This is the buying price. Not manufacturing. The first Humanoid will be costing us 28 million US dollars. And after developing and redeveloping, we intend to take the price down to 7 million US dollars.

It is a long way ahead my friends ; and I am honored to be a part of this journey. Thanking the brain and force behind the HRS ; Dr. Zacharias Zeus Aphelion, Dr. Alexander Asphaleious Aphelion and Dr. Leonardo Eros Valencia. " He said. Then his icy grey gaze met the deep hazel ones.

"And not to forget ; Dr. Siya Nova Amulet. My respect to the core team." He completed it. While staring straight in the eyes of Dr. Nova who was gazing at him not with fear, weariness or even admiration or attraction. It was plain indifference. At his last line Dr. Nova nodded at him in respect. Not leaving his eyes for a second.

It was the first time Lucifer encountered someone who has the guts to look into his eyes straight for more than ten seconds. Be it be his brothers even. And that too with balant indifference. But not disrespect.

They both were quietly trying to figure out each other. Their trance was broken when the public stood up in respect and applauded quite generously for the respected man on the stage.

Hmm... quite an interesting journey ahead. Zacharias thought.

"So you're telling me ; that the Humanoid would be needing sperm?" Alexander's surprised voice inquired. Which pulled Zacharias out of his thoughts. "Yes that was what I said. Dr. Alexander. '' Dr. Nova responded. "You know you can call me Alex and my brother and friend Zach and Leo." Alexander replied.

Nova smirked a little and said "My point here is Alex ; We have three males in our project. Now four counting Mr. Aphelion. And I can't get sperm out of any one of them. Regardless of me contributing my ova for the HSR." Her steeled voice had an edge of mockery concealed in it which didn't go unnoticed by any male present there.

"If I think rationally and donate my sperm, then I am practically fathering a baby ; No. An artificial baby with you Dr. Nova. And my point here is, I am not ready to be a father." Zacharias stated firmly.

"It's not like you have to change his nappy or anything Zach." Nova replied playfully. "Changing nappies is not the only duty of a parent, Dr. Amulet. " Lucifer interrupted.

"You don't realize, but you used 'his' instead of 'it's' Dr. Amulet. And my point ; you're clearly attached to it emotionally even before it is made. And about my brothers, I don't want to make them fathers yet even if it is a Humanoid. They are simply not ready." Lucifer further pointed out.

"Are you?" Nova asked Lucifer simply. Before Lucifer could answer, Leonardo interrupted, " The Humanoid, will be having it's parents features, thoughts, habits, powers and practically all the qualities of them. It would be acting like their baby 99% of time.

The only thing, it would be having silicon instead of calcium in it's bone structure. The designs are too advanced. It would be immortal. If we replace silicon by calcium somehow, which is not yet possible ; we can create a human!" Leonardo exclaimed.

" I am well aware of it Leo." Nova simply stated. "You are not willing to give any information about the age, structure or gender of the Humanoid." Zacharias stated.

"I will first consult some things like age, structure, gender and personality with the father ; as in sperm donor. Thank you very much." Nova stated sassily. "Congratulations. We are gonna practically craft a baby!" Alexander sassed.

A single glare from Nova and he shutted his mouth. Lucifer was amused. "We want some time for discussing Dr. Amulet. "Lucifer said. "Give us a day." He added. Nova looked straight in his steel grey eyes for a minute.

And everyone else looked at both of them. Finally Nova nodded. "Will meet here tomorrow at 6:00 pm sharp." She said and nodded towards each male in respect before she left elegantly.

"As beautiful and godly she is ; She is equally crazy." Leonardo stated. "I would love to have a biological baby with her." Zacharias smirked.

"Well she is out of your league bro." Alexander replied. "If you're finished with your childish banter brothers, I would like to go home." Lucifer stated. A long discussion was in place.
