The Satellite Surveillance Center has been rather quiet these days, setting aside the fact that some programming for Helios had been stolen. We have scratched that design all together, and Sarah Graiman presented completely new ideas for a spy vehicle called the G8155 Interceptor. They have been diligently working on the vehicle as much as possible in their free time for the past year. Between Sarah’s genius designs, Billy’s marvelous programming skills, and Mike and Zoe’s unique ideas, they are putting together one the sleekest but “meanest” vehicles I have seen to this day (for lack of a better word choice). I am unsure of how to react to the concept that I will soon have a younger brother or sister.
I cannot help but wonder what he, it, the vehicle (if you rather) will be like. Will the vehicle be laid back and somewhat sarcastic and cool headed like me, or will they have a different kind of attitude and more talkative personality that make us very different in our nature? Will the vehicle have a male or female persona? Whichever they end up being like, I hope I can do as much as I can to aid him in their learning-about himself and the life that surrounds us, and will also try to protect them as best as I can should the need arise.
I cannot help but wonder about the SSC’s future, as well as my own. The SSC has been funded by Charles Graiman’s very pricey will, and its management has been entrusted to his daughter. Since we will have two, hopefully three vehicles to call our own at the SSC, we have renovated Wilton’s old mansion with the permission of Michael Knight, my driver’s father, and have declared the formation of a new group called Team Knight Rider. My driver, Michael Knight’s son by blood will be responsible for the team, and we hope his adoptive sister Cira Knight will join Knight Industries and help us recruit operatives to the SSC and FLAG.
If we can find Cira, who I suspect may no longer be in the active duty Air Force, I can predict that she and Mike will help us find a new driver for the Interceptor, as well as new employees for Knight Industries. I hope to see Knight Industries grow so big that recruiters will need to hire operatives for the FLAG homestead as well. Sarah has told me she plans on holding reunions and various meetings at the mansion depending on our location and needs. She says that the only things that have surely remained untouched are Cira and Mike’s rooms. Sarah has also told me about Mike’s dad and how the original Knight Industries Two Thousand remains with Mike’s father at FLAG. I have yet to see this mansion, but I believe it would be good for me to meet both him and the legendary Michael Knight. I am rather curious to see just how much Mike may resemble his dad, and of course, I cannot help but wonder if this Knight Industries Two Thousand is similar to me, or completely different.
What am I going to do with myself? I have no plans, no new interests. I am dedicated to Knight Industries, and Mike’s needs come first. Mike and I have been driving around a lot, getting a head start in search for drivers. We are not too worried about finding one so soon, for the Interceptor is just barely nearing full completion, and we still have to run some diagnostics and put him on some test drives. I still only have bits of emotion, though I am unsure if everyone here knows that I have them. Zoe and Sarah definitely have the notion that my personality is developing every single day into something more human, but I am not sure about Mike’s perspective, sometimes I still think he sees me as a steed, or perhaps a loyal friend at best (the latter of which I am content with). I have had some odd dreams, of memories that I am not sure if they are mine, and of visions which I cannot tell if they have happened or are simply my imagination. I have dreamed of being human, but I know my place.
Since I was shut down by Torres, I am not sure if part of my essence is missing. Perhaps something keeps telling me I should be something more, or that I am simply not the same as KI2T, which is downright obvious. There is nothing I can do to change that. The simple fact is that it is almost certain I am who I am meant to be, and that there is nothing I can do about that either.
On a different note, we have suspected that KARR may be alive again. I could feel his distant presence in my deep conscience. It seems as though we are both idly searching for something, but lack true guidance. I am not sure of what he wants, but I have reported my concerns to the others, and they have told me that if KARR is indeed fully functional (which has now been confirmed), they intend to bring him back to where he rightfully belongs. I have heard from Mike that Cira used to be KARR’s driver, and there is no original version of KARR floating around. They hope that if we can get Cira and start tracking down KARR, we can convince KARR to side with us. We are unsure if KARR will remember Cira at all after all that he has been through, but we can find out. We are aware it will put Cira in danger, but with me around, there are going to be no innocent lives lost if I can help it. If we can just get KARR to remember who his driver is, perhaps he will leave Mike and his father alone. If we can do that and KARR begins to trust Cira, then perhaps we can get KARR to understand our perspective. We know that reprogramming does not work in his case. Change (by any extent), however, is not impossible.
