This is a new story in the Trust Machine universe that I wrote for <span class="username-with-symbol u"><a class="u regular username" href="https://www.deviantart.com/clancy688" target="_self">clancy688</a><span class="user-symbol regular" data-quicktip-text="" data-show-tooltip="" data-gruser-type="regular"></span></span> 's story contest: <a href="https://www.deviantart.com/clancy688/journal/The-Trust-Machines-story-contest-746928113">www.deviantart.com/clancy688/j&hellip;</a>. It was my second attempt to write something as the first story became to long. I'll get back to it and post it eventually. This one also got a little out of hand. So after the contest is over, I'll probably continue this story. But it should still stand on its own as is.<br /><br />EDIT: I've submitted an updated version this story here:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.deviantart.com/magicshoppe/art/Trust-Machines-I-m-with-the-Band-part-1-777782398">www.deviantart.com/magicshoppe&hellip;</a><br />The update converts it to a PDF because part 2 of the story will be a PDF as it is too big for dA's text submissions. Part 2 will come out by end of year. I did not overwrite this version because it had been part of a contest. So someone looking at the contest can still view the original submission.<br /><br />EDIT2: test
