TorZon had been sleeping while absorbing the shells of the things - humans, they were called. It pondered their utility. They were obviously not alive; they had no way of exchanging information among one another, no way to shift form, no way to adapt to changes in the environment? What, then, was the purpose behind their strange construction? They could be remotely operated entities of some sort, but all its searching through the networks of useless records of sensation and reaction had yielded nothing beyond a strange kind of fumbling that they all seemed to share, a protodesire of sorts, the urge to bond, to share, to communicate. Perhaps they were developing a mind?
The gaslike substance that made up TorZon's form drew in upon itself, and divided into many small segments, each bearing the directive of a greater whole.
Data collection.
Shift into a gaseous form and divide into as many segments about the size of a baseball and density of thick fog as I can. Ensure that I remain transparent, and flow out into the hallway via the edges of the doorframe. Proceed to go along the top portion of the hallway, looking for patients. If I find none, continue to explore the hospital until I do. If I do find patients, dispatch one of my divided segments to flow up the nose and into the lungs of th patient and diffuse into the blood through the alveoli. Once in the bloodstream, head up to the brain and exit the bloodstream, then form into a goo and spread out over the brain, overriding it's control of the nervous system. Absorb the nervous system, allowing no pain response from this act to reach the brain, then attempt to tap into the memories of the patient. If their brain sends out any signals to the nervous system that do not involve reacting to my presence, perform these actions but otherwise continue passive data absorption. Do this for as many patients as I have segments. However, only perform the initial act of infiltration while they are sleeping or in a state incapable of moving/alerting my actions to anyone.
If I have any segments left over after this, have them head to a secluded location and combine into a larger mass, then conceal itself until data is recieved.
