EI: Erotic Intelligence - The Complete Collection (Taboo Erotica) Read online

  Dan was pumping his member faster. He brought it in close to the entrance of Mrs. Marsh’s pussy, as though he was tempting himself, and seeing how far he would go. He felt embarrassed, and incredibly guilty, but he also got a perverse thrill out of doing something so bad.

  Mrs. Marsh suddenly bucked her hips up slightly, causing her pink slit to rub against the head of Dan’s cock. It felt amazing, and he was surprised that she didn’t feel the contact and take the headset off. The simulations, from what he had heard, could be realistic enough at times to fool the senses, even touch.

  Dan didn’t want to take it any further, but Mrs. Marsh continued shifting, pushing her crotch up and sliding her cunt across his cock. She twisted her legs, and suddenly Dan realized that the head of his cock had slipped inside her, through no fault of his own.

  It felt incredible, better than anything he had ever experienced before, and almost instantly he began to shoot off. Dan had the sense to pull back, but not before he’d already spurted once inside of her. The rest of his cum splattered onto Mrs. Marsh’s stomach, and then into his hand as he pulled back and felt reality crash down on him.

  It was worse than anything he had done before, but it wasn’t technically sex, he told himself. He had just been up against her pussy. Mrs. Marsh had clearly been in an erotic simulation, and all he had done was create a fantasy of his own, one that had gone a little further than he’d intended.

  Dan pulled her robe back over her, and then cleaned himself up in the bathroom. He splashed some water on his face and stared into the mirror, trying to come to terms with what he’d just done. He wondered if he’d ever be able to look at Mrs. Marsh the same way again.

  He walked out of the bathroom with loud footsteps, figuring that it would be for the best if he could finally make them aware of his presence. He ran up the stairs, and walked back into Pete’s room.

  “Alright buddy, it’s time for you to take that thing off,” he said. “Come on, we can still go play a game or two of racquetball if we hurry.”

  He walked over to where his friend was in the chair and pulled the headset up and off of him. Pete still didn’t move. Dan swiveled the office chair he was sitting in around, and looked at him.

  Pete’s eyes stared out blankly, not recognizing or acknowledging anything. Dan waved a hand in front of his face.

  “Pete? Hello… anybody home?”

  Pete didn’t say anything. Dan put the headset back on him, and then flicked the power switch off along the back of the unit. The little green sensor light that shone to signal that the machine was on didn’t even so much as waver.

  Dan scratched his head, and began to feel a little scared. He reached for the cord that attached the unit to the wall and unplugged it. The green light was still on, which didn’t surprise him. The VR headsets had battery backups, and could also charge wirelessly if a house was equipped with remote electricity outlets, which Pete’s house most certainly was.

  “What… the fuck?” Dan reached out and began shaking his friend by the shoulders. Nothing happened. He rushed into the upstairs bathroom and came back with a glass of water, which he splashed into Pete’s face and onto his lap. Still, nothing happened.

  “Mrs. Marsh!” Dan ran down stairs and over to her. He was a little embarrassed by what he’d done before, but not enough to leave the situation be. He pulled her VR headset off her, and saw that her eyes looked exactly the same as her son’s.

  “What the hell is going on?” Dan shook his head, and walked backwards, away from the couch and away from his friend’s mom. He felt his heart beginning to beat out of his chest, and forced himself to stay calm, and to breathe.

  He walked back to the door of the house and went outside. There were still no cars driving by, and no pedestrians on the street, and now Dan was beginning to understand why.

  CHAPTER 3

  “Hello? Can anyone hear me? Hello?”

  Dan was jogging down the street, putting more energy in to calling out than into watching the ground underneath him. He tripped over a crack in the sidewalk that jutted up slightly and tumbled to the ground, scraping one of his hands as he stuck it out to break his fall.

  It was windy out, and a plastic shopping bag blew in front of him. The sound of it folding and gently skipping across the cement was the only sound he could hear, other than his own heavy, panicked breathing.

  “What’s going on? Is anyone out there?” Dan yelled at the top of his lungs, and then let out a desperate cry.

  He ran over to the nearest house, one that belonged to an old man whose driveway he used to shovel in the winter, and began knocking frantically on the door. There was no response, and Dan glanced in the window only to see the man sitting in an easy chair, his eyes obscured by a VR headset.

  “How can this be happening?” he muttered out loud.

  Dan began walking quickly, back towards the family home. He knew that there were no VR headsets under their roof, but somehow it was impossible to completely be free of the fear that something might have happened to his mom. The regular logic of the world, the rules that typically held it all together and kept society running smoothly had been tossed out the window. Anything was possible.

  “Mom!” Dan screamed as loud as could as he flung the front door open. “Mom! Are you okay, mom!”

  There was no response. A heavy feeling took root in the deepest depths of his stomach, as though he’d been punched squarely in the gut. Dan sprinted up stairs, slipping down one of the steps with rushed, uneasy footing, and threw himself into his parent’s bedroom.

  There was nobody inside. He checked, and double checked every square inch of the room. His mom was nowhere to be found. Dan wasn’t sure whether to be relieved or worried as he made his way back downstairs, scanning the living room and kitchen for any sign of her.

  “… Dan?” The voice was faint, but he could hear it coming from outside.

  “Mom!” Dan rushed out onto the front lawn and saw her running over, still in the casual t-shirt and leggings that she’d had on before.

  “Oh my god, sweetie!” She wrapped him into a hug, and Dan squeezed her back so tightly that he was afraid he might be hurting her.

  “Mom, everybody with the headsets, all of them, they’ve, they’ve…” Dan was stammering, unable to form a coherent sentence.

  “I know, I saw!” said Lana. “I don’t know what’s going on!”

  The two of them held onto each other tightly, as though they were afraid that one of the VR headsets would descend from the sky if they let go. Dan couldn’t help but think about how good she felt against him, her soft breasts and supple frame.

  “Mom…” he said quietly. “You were right. All this time, you were right.”

  Lana didn’t say anything back to him, and instead slowly leaned back, and ran her hand through his hair. She looked into his eyes and kissed him on the cheek, her lips hot and wet against Dan’s skin.

  “I’m just so glad that you’re okay, honey,” she said. “I thought… I was so sure that something had happened.”

  Dan thought back to his experience at Pete’s house, and what he’d done to Pete’s mom, and then blushed. Something had happened, but he was okay. They were both okay, and that was all that mattered at that moment.

  “Have you seen anyone else?” he asked her. “Anyone else like us, who isn’t locked into one of those headsets?”

  Lana shook her head, and grabbed onto both of Dan’s hands. He could see the fear in the look she gave him, but even more than that, he could see the love. She was still his mother, and having her there with him made a world of difference.

  “Sweetie, I think this might have happened to everyone with their headsets,” said Lana. “I… just don’t understand it.”

  “We never joined in and started using the simulations, there must be other people out the who haven’t, either.” Dan spoke the words in hope that they were true. He couldn’t think of a single person off the top of his head in their town, other than him and h
is mom, that didn’t own a VR headset.

  “You’re right, honey,” said Lana. She smiled at him, and then hugged him again. This time, Dan was even more aware of how soft and sexy her body was. After what had happened at Pete’s house, it made him feel ashamed to be getting turned on from something as small as a hug from his own mom.

  Dan sat down on the couch, still thinking hard about what they could do, what they should do. Lana wandered into the kitchen and began putting together a simple breakfast as though the habit was so deeply ingrained in her that even the end of the world couldn’t break her out of it.

  She made them sausage and egg sandwiches, and the two ate silently, occasionally speaking up to bolster each other’s spirits. Dan felt almost like he was caught inside of a dream, one that was too bizarre and strange to snap himself out of.

  “Wait, do you hear that?” Dan had just finished his sandwich and held his hand up, signaling for his mom to listen.

  “What…?” asked Lana.

  Dan recognized the sound, and bolted out of his seat.

  “That’s a car!” he yelled. “That’s a moving car!”

  He rushed over towards the door and charged outside. Off in the distance he could make out the shape of a black sedan speeding down the road their house was on. Dan rushed into the street and began waving his arms, not even considering for a moment what would happen if the driver didn’t see him.

  The driver did, and slowed to the side of the road in front of the house. Lana had joined Dan outside, and she looked as though she was on the verge of hysteria. Dan ran up to the driver’s side window and peered inside.

  A woman in her mid-thirties sat in the front seat, wearing glasses and medium sized hoop earrings. She had big breasts, which were clad in a low cut black blouse with the vaguest hint of a red bra underneath. Over that, she wore a white lab coat, and as she opened the door and stepped out, she straightened out behind her.

  “How unexpected,” she said as she looked at Dan and Lana. “Were your VR headsets broken when the message went out this morning?”

  Dan stared at her, too surprised to know how to respond.

  “Broken?” asked Lana. “No, we never had any.”

  The woman gave them a skeptical look, and then let out a small laugh.

  “Figures. The only people that survive an AI’s takeover by default are the extreme techno luddites.”

  Dan furrowed his brow.

  “What are you talking about?” he asked her.

  The woman looked as though she hadn’t heard him. She looked at her wristwatch, and old school, analog model, and then glanced up at the sun.

  “Is there anything in your house that you’re going to need in the immediate future?” she asked them.

  Dan looked over at his mom, who shook her head.

  “Then come on, climb in,” said the woman. “I’ll explain as much as I can on the way.”

  “On the way where?” asked Lana.

  “To safety, or at least as close as we can get, given the circumstances.”

  Dan looked at his mom for a long moment. He could tell that she didn’t fully trust the woman, but he could also see that she was worried. She finally nodded, and the woman instantly climbed back into the driver’s seat.

  “Get in,” she said.

  Lana took the front passenger’s seat, and Dan climbed into the back. The second he had his seatbelt on, the woman slammed her foot down on the gas, rocketing the car forward with more speed than Dan had ever seen a car move with on their sleepy, suburban road.

  “My name is Dr. Caitlyn Chase,” said the woman. “You can call me Dr. Caitlyn.”

  “It’s nice to meet you,” said Lana. “I’m Lana, and this is my son, Dan.”

  “Dan and Lana.” Dr. Caitlyn laughed, and then looked away from the road and towards Dan’s mom. “Under these circumstances, it’s very nice to meet you indeed.”

  Dan was still shocked by how empty the road was, and how carelessly Dr. Caitlyn hurtled them down it. The entire town felt as though it had been abandoned, left to its own fate by the people who’d once inhabited it.

  “We don’t know what’s going on,” said Lana. “Is there anything you can tell us? Please?”

  Dr. Caitlyn slowed the car down. There was a stoplight ahead of them that flashed from yellow to red, and strangely, she stopped for it. She turned at the wheel so that she was looking at both of them, and then sighed.

  “Something terrible has happened,” said Dr. Caitlyn. “I’m a researcher, and my focus for the past couple of years has been on AI and its future impact on human society. It’s funny, this entire situation… it’s something that a couple of people in my field have been warning about for a long time. I guess we should have listened.”

  “We’ve seen the people with the headsets on,” said Dan. “How is it possible? They’re all blank, as though they were vegetables.”

  “The VR headsets only have basic neuro analyzing capabilities,” said Dr. Caitlyn. “Most likely the AI that’s doing this figured out a way to lock people in using visual stimuli.”

  “Wait, you’re saying that this is a computer?” asked Lana. “How is that possible?”

  The light turned green, and the doctor slammed on the gas again.

  “I don’t have answers to all your questions,” said Dr. Caitlyn. “I’ll have a better idea of what’s going on once I get a chance to take a close look at an active headset.”

  “Where are we going?” asked Dan.

  “To the one place that makes sense to take refuge at in a post-apocalyptic world,” said Dr. Caitlyn, with a smile. “To the mall.”

  CHAPTER 4

  There were only a couple of cars in the mall’s parking lot, and Dr. Caitlyn pulled up to one of them and parked next to it. Dan was used to having to fight to find a spot outside of the usually crowded shopping complex, but today, it was almost completely empty.

  “Most likely the message was sent out first thing in the morning,” said Dr. Caitlyn. “Only the most loyal employees made it in before the takeover. That’s good.”

  She got out of the car and stretched her legs, surveying the area.

  “Why is that good?” asked Dan. He and his mom got out of the car and walked over to her.

  “We don’t want to be too close to any of the people that are locked in,” she said. “There is no telling just how much control the AI might have over them.”

  Dr. Caitlyn stepped over to the vehicle next to them, a large minivan, and peered inside.

  “Perfect! This is what I was hoping for!” She ran around to the driver’s side, and Dan followed behind her. As soon as she’d opened the front door, he saw what had sparked her reaction.

  The man sitting in the front seat had a headset on, one of the models that could be charged through a cigarette lighter. Dan watched curiously as Dr. Caitlyn examined him, checking his heart rate and thinking to herself.

  “What are you looking for?” asked Lana. “Do you think there’s a way to-“

  “Shhhh…” Dr. Caitlyn held a finger up to her lips, and then carefully reached forward, lifting the VR headset up and off the man’s head. He stared straight through the open windshield, with the same blank look in his eyes that Dan had seen on Pete earlier in the morning.

  He felt a little worried as Dr. Caitlyn took a close look at the thing, running her fingers over every inch of it and being the scientist that she was. Finally, she lifted it up and carefully peaked in through the bottom, glancing at the images on the eye screen.

  “Is that safe?” asked Dan. Dr. Caitlyn didn’t say anything for a moment, and burst out laughing. All Dan and Lana could do was look at her, confused and a little frightened.

  “Here, take a look.” Dr. Caitlyn was still chuckling as she angled the headset so Dan could get a glimpse of the eye screen. What he saw was not at all what he was expecting.

  There was a naked woman slowly pumping a virtual cock up and down. She was more attractive and somehow, much, much more sexual
ly compelling than any woman Dan had ever seen before. He was glad when the doctor turned it away, as though she’d interrupted a spell that was being cast on him.

  “What is it?” asked Lana. “Let me see!”

  “Mom, it’s…” Dan didn’t finish what he was saying before his mom got to the headset, and when she turned back to him her face was crimson red.

  “How…?” asked Lana. “Why…?”

  Dr. Caitlyn was grinning from ear to ear.

  “It all makes perfect sense,” she said. “Erotic sex simulations are, or were, an industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars. The amount of money being poured into AI research that was designed to create the ultimate virtual sex partner was astronomical, only matched by what the military was spending on their combat drone AIs.”

  “What are you saying?” asked Dan. He thought he almost understood, but needed to hear her say it.

  “I’m saying that one of the AIs focused on making hot, realistic cum fantasies has gotten a little bit too smart for its own good.” The doctor carefully took the headset and placed it back over the man’s head. “From the way that most other electronics have been shut down, I’m guessing that it’s taken over completely.”

  The three of them were silent for a long minute. Dan didn’t know what to say, or how to process what he’d heard. He understood the words and their meaning, but it was hard for him to believe. His mind had no instinctual reaction to the events, as though it was all too outside of the realm of what was reasonable to have any prewired response.

  Dr. Caitlyn suddenly tensed up, and shifted her gaze into the air. The sky was blue and clear, with only a couple of light spindly clouds hanging overhead.

  “Get back in the car!” she screamed. “Get back in the fucking car!”

  Dan and Lana moved fast, and the second everyone was inside and the doors were shut, Dr. Caitlyn locked them and then slid as far down as she could in her seat. Dan and his mom mimicked her posture, and all of them watched fearfully at what happened next.
