So about that summer vacation....(Austin, Steve)
Anya looked at the screen and smiled. The code for Austin's AI was done and she was now finished with the few big projects she had. She would have been done earlier, but she took time to head out to Kansas City to set up Force Works' headquarters. She didn't even have much time to see Toni while she was out there.

Though now that the AI was done she could take a few days off and actually get to see her husband. Even weekend visits had been difficult with all that was going on. Anya had spent the nights working while her husband slept so she could spend time with him during the days.

"This is done," she said to an empty room. "I better not have anything else on my plate for a few days."

"You have quite a bit on your plate," Goddard said.

"What?"

"This Friday, tomorrow, you have a meetings in Detroit with the CEO and other representatives from General Motors, Ford and Chrysler. Next Monday you have a meeting in Tokyo with the members of the Japanese auto manufacturers and then you need to be in Germany on Wednesday and England on Friday."

"Is that all?" Anya snarked not liking this at all. She could send a few others from Renaissance Tech in her place, but she felt like she had to go. The company was just getting off the ground and Anya was determined to make it a success.

"There have also been requests for meetings from various government officials around the world. They are interested in the zero point energy technology for their countries. There have been requests from the United States government as well. Should I schedule meetings for when you are back from Japan and Europe?"

Anya sighed. So much for summer vacation, or any vacation for that matter. "Set one up with the US government officials for when we get back, but I want a few days off beforehand. Then schedule the ones with other governments and stagger them out as much as possible. I'd also like one with the Genoshan consulate here in the US. Coordinate all of these with Tony, Justin's AI and with Miss Potts. so the three of us are all there." She paused for a moment. "Also please contact R&D and tell them I'm sending over some schematics for an idea. I want to see what they think and if it's possible. Are the vehicles done?" There were three vehicles for each auto manufacturer that were being converted to run on zero point energy to demonstrate viability. The project to convert them had started a few weeks ago even before the announcement went out.

"They have been completed and already en route to their destinations."

"That will help a great deal. Do you have the latest diagnostics for my suit? I want to make sure nothing's wrong with it before I leave."

"The diagnostics are complete. The suit is functioning well within normal parameters."

"Great. Now, I'm going to deliver this AI and then head to New York for the evening. I'll also deliver Boo to Westchester while I'm down that way. Thank you Goddard."

"I live to serve."

"Like hell you do," Anya muttered under her breath. She grabbed the small device and left the lab.

"Five minutes?" Anya said. It was just a quick trip across the city.

"Five minutes." he agrees and then leaves his apartment to head to roof.

Anya arrived and landed on the roof next to him. She set Boo down next to her. "Don't you go anywhere," she told the little robot.

Her face plate opened and she gave Austin a smile. "Hi."

"Hey, Red. How are you?" he smiles, then looks down at the little robot.

"Hey, little guy? Are you my new AI?" Austin asks, looking him over.

"He's...kinda cute for a little guy." Austin says.

"Busier than normal," she said with a grin. "Which translates to Stark for really good. How are you?"

Anya shook her head. "I would say yes, but then I'd never hear the end of it from Goddard /and/ Darlene. Long story."

"This is Boo. I'm taking him down to New York to be with his mother."

"This," she said as she held up a small metal box. "Is your AI."

Austin takes the small metal box and looks it over, nodding appreciatively.

"What's his name? Or her name?" he asks.

"Cato," she said. "After Cato the Elder, not Cato the Younger. There's a big difference."

"If your bike is here I can install it. Won't take that long."

"Yeah, it's here. Down in the garage." Austin says. "I'll walk you down."

He'll lead Anya back into the building and down to the garage, if she follows.

"So...the little midget is the one you said your other two AIs built?" he asks.

Anya followed him to the garage. "Yeah, it is. I'm still trying to wrap my brain around it. I keep hoping it's part of a dream."

"Hey, he's a cute little guy. Don't be so mean." Austin teases, showing her the bike, which has since been painted midnight blue.

"So, how does Cato get set up?" he asks.

"I like the color," she said. "I just need to wire this up and attach sensors. Motorcycles are a lot easier than cars."

"Is there any way I can help?" Austin asks, looking around.

"I've got wrenches and stuff, if you need 'em." he offers.

"Just stand there and keep me company while I do this," she said as she squatted down next to the bike. She started attaching the device.

"So what are you working on now?"

"Oh, nothin' at the moment. Gotta head to Chicago for a movie premiere this week, but other than, nothin' much goin' on." Austin says.

"Thinkin' about gettin' a permanent place out here. I kinda like it in Boston." he says.

"What about you? Punchin' out lots of bad guys?" he asks.

Anya shook her head. "Nope. Been busy in the lab. I had finals, your project and another project to work on. Now I have some business trips coming up. Getting the new company off the ground."

"Thanks," she said as she worked. "I'm hoping it does. It is going to keep me pretty busy for the foreseeable future."

"You mean that the National Anya-Catchin' Competition is off this year? Damn, and I was hopin' to participate.

Should we just get you a red coat and change your name to Carmen Sandiego now?" he asks teasingly.

Anya laughed. "Something like that. I'm going to be busy enough that I have to schedule time with my husband."

"Wow, that /is/ pretty busy. Why don't you just do date night every Friday or Saturday, no matter where you are? At the very least, it gives you two to somethin' forward to look to the rest of the week." Austin suggests.

"I'm going to try to keep weekends free, much like we're doing now, but there will be times I will have to travel."

She smiled. "We'll make it work."

"If any two people can do it, it'll be you and Steve, Anya. You two survived the whole cross-dimensional thing, so I have no doubts ya'll can get by with a busy work schedule." Austin says.

"I kinda-sorta met someone myself. Her name is May. We watched a few movies together and had dinner. A friend of hers set us up." Austin says, chuckling a bit.
