The Unpaid Intern: A Sci Fi Hero Story

Overly trusting and naive Katie accepted a summer internship at a military contracted corporation, working on a nanite weapons program. But unknown to her, the program was on its last leg, and a working sample needed to be shown soon or the funding would dry-up.



So the head of the program did what any mad scientist would do in such a situation… used his unpaid intern, Katie, as his guinea pig; tricking her into unknowingly ingesting several mass-producing, self-sufficient, self-powering nanites.



After successfully forming a physical and psychological bond with the nanites, and becoming the corporation’s most valuable asset, Katie found herself the subject of brutal, inhuman testing.



But now, to escape, Katie will have to rely on the nanites’ vast database of knowledge and uncanny adaptive abilities, along with the advanced strength and speed gifted her by their inclusion into her system.
