《Ringmaster's Ambition》Interlude 1: The Missing Clue
Advertisement
My name is Seth Sanchez. A private investigator specifically hired by Mrs. Wilcox-Tuckerman, the cousin of that inhuman bastard known as Samuel Tuckerman. Although it's almost half a year since that bastard's execution, the lasting effects of people knowing his deeds and its influence can still be felt to this very day. History has had its fair share of serial killers, but this guy really took it to the next level. Anyway, my client had been asking almost everyone she could get to discover or find out something that his trial and all his evidence failed to explain. I was the only one who accepted. I was reluctant at first but curiosity (and maybe a bit of pity) made me decide to take it. Her family and almost any person related to Samuel Tuckerman, be it an actual family member or in-law, were really suffering harassment and threats from everywhere. When people can no longer take revenge on the guy himself, they settle for the next best thing.
What she wanted me to discover was how Samuel Tuckerman got away with all these heinous crimes for almost 80 years. Apparently, he started killing when he was still a teenager, and yet he managed to keep low and hide his crimes until the day he decided to gloat the fact that he got away by surrendering everything to the local police. It got me thinking and speculating that maybe he wasn't alone. Copies of his evidence, which some sick bastard decided to upload on the internet, was carefully combed through and documented by any person online who wanted to. There was not a single mention or indication of a supposed accomplice. NOT. A. SINGLE. DAMN. THING.
However, I got something that others may not have. A list of his past patients. When his crimes broke headlines, angry mobs decided to torch down his house and last known office. Nothing was recovered from the fire, much to the dismay of the investigators. Other than a box of his old paperwork and records that were given to my client for safekeeping, but supposedly later forgotten by Samuel. My client kept quiet at first, but the endless harassment and threats broke her down and made her desperate to clear her family's name. Unfortunately, I was the only one willing to actually help her out. Her case was too hot and too prickly but I got no living family or friends, so I wouldn't get scorched or pricked too much if ever I decided to take the case.

Right now, I'm going to visit the residence of the first patient on this list. Hopefully, I'm lucky enough and get something worthwhile from him. Otherwise, this is going to be a long investigation.

A-Live AI
The year is 2247. For almost two hundred years Sentient AI research has been banned. Everyone knew this, and yet no one has ever given up on finding the perfect setup for it. Restricted AI are rare, but possible to get ahold of if you have the money and the clout to get through the law for it. Especially when it deals with the military. Alfred Homis is an engineer and has spent the last three years working for the United Terran Military's Research and Exploration Department. Specifically to help build a 'shackled' AI who's prime directive was to explore potentially habitable worlds. Worlds that are far cheaper to colonize and add to the United Terran Directorate's fold than terraforming. During the AI's maiden voyage things go horribly wrong, taking Alfred Homis along for the ride. Thrown into a parallel universe where the laws of physics are just a little messed up, Alfred finds himself trapped inside the very machine he'd helped to build. Add magic, hostile fantasy creatures, and two different pantheons of 'Gods' to the mix and things get even more complicated. Oh, and an invasion between universes to boot. But that's just all in a days work though for Alfred, the AI Lord. Authors Note: Hi guys! Long time no see. And yes, I know that's all on me. But I blame life for that. Anyway, this is my new work, and I hope you guys enjoy it! The chapters are a little shorter than I'd previously posted in my other stories, but I cannot say that I have the same amount of time or energy to write them like that anymore. Sorry about that. Still, some warnings: There is cursing in this story. I am not going to edit it out. There will be sexual content later. Blood, gore and cruel depictions are all planned. If that isn't your thing, I'd suggest you turn back now. There is also my dry, and often not-so-funny sense of humor. And oh, it's all in first person gain. Haha. I just tend to write better that way. If none of that bothers you, then enjoy the read! Feel free to comment, point out mistakes, or make suggestions! Reviews are nice too, but please lay off the criticism until the story gets good and going. Thank you. Note 1: Some edits to the synopsis.
