I dawned the helmet after moments of thinking. At first it was kind of loose, but the form fitting cast kicked in and formed to my head. A million things could have been going through my head but I could only think of one: what have I done?597Please respect copyright.PENANAmsVpH4SnmO
Sure they could have built the VR helmet from scratch, but with my designs it made it so much simpler. I have choices ahead of me, not that I really like either of them. I could just not go through with this and be disposed of or go through with it and face what's to come afterwards.597Please respect copyright.PENANAeMMHClC8ss
"Waiting on you young man." Lucy was already clocked into the system. A big screen hung just outside the chamber for everyone to watch. Multiple other screens surrounded it showing our points of views, vitals, and a few other things I couldn't quite read.597Please respect copyright.PENANAiMq6umEiRd
It was like second nature, I clicked the button on the side of my helmet and the display flashed. It was weird because at first I could move my arms and legs but after a moment the fell numb. I had no use of them anymore. My vision wasn't like I was seeing through a visor, but more like I was actually there. In all my time dealing the VR project I have never once tried it out myself, this was amazing.597Please respect copyright.PENANAzXwCP23ndU
"Ok in a moment we are going to load you two into a scenario. I want you both to take your time and adjust." Timor stepped away from the mic and walked over to his computer. After a few taps on his keys the world around us started to load in.597Please respect copyright.PENANA1skObic0lx
Everything was magnificent from the trees to the grass, the rivers to the lakes, and the sky to the clouds. It all seemed so real. Even when I move it feels right, like I'm not stiff or restricted by anything. I could get used to this. 597Please respect copyright.PENANA9keiaqoLwQ
"No. No. No. This is not what I want at all! Give them a survival situation." The secretary of defense stepped down from the balcony and made his way over to Timor.597Please respect copyright.PENANAfhlKXgE3Ph
"Ok I guess we can do that." Timor turned to his computer and typed in a couple codes.597Please respect copyright.PENANAPw7SXthoth
"Oh and while you're at it wipe their memories."597Please respect copyright.PENANAnglQzvncaw
"But sir we haven't even tested that feature yet." Timor still typing on his computer, started losing his temper. He knew though that he had to keep it together to keep the funding from the government. He took a deep breath in and let his frustration out.597Please respect copyright.PENANAuf66ZFBsjy
"We need natural responses to this test. The only way I can know this for sure is if you wipe their minds of let's say the last day or so." The secretary of defense picked up Timor's coffee and took a sip. "Wow this is some dolled up coffee."597Please respect copyright.PENANAd8Zl44RoYk
"Well sir we are not all like you and drink it straight." Timor grabbed his coffee and moved it to his other side.597Please respect copyright.PENANAYjsGPQ9mh4
"Timor we are seeing a spike in blood pressure for Lucy."597Please respect copyright.PENANAFBfWvsRw5w
"How bad is it?"597Please respect copyright.PENANAcjH3IAgbha
"Almost critical."597Please respect copyright.PENANAPShaXFFHtQ
"Pull the plug then."597Please respect copyright.PENANAsz7BtfKmLG
Red alert signs started flashing across the board, the television monitors started going blank, and an uproar began in the room. The room went from a nice calm place to complete chaos trying to keep everything in order. It was a nice clean organized room but now papers and coffee decorated the floor.597Please respect copyright.PENANA4Wsx4CTMBB
"Timor what's going on?" Asked the secretary of defense.597Please respect copyright.PENANA777MFYkjxn
"The system is rejecting Lucy as a subject."597Please respect copyright.PENANAewn38kb6zq
"And that means?"597Please respect copyright.PENANAgIbcXbvL2v
"Lucy isn't compatible with the test. If this keeps up she could experience severe neural damage or we could lose her mind to the program."597Please respect copyright.PENANAJZzcPxtUXr
Timor's computer went black. The room itself was going into a complete shutdown. Row by row the lights went off until they hit the central cylinder.597Please respect copyright.PENANAVOIizHAIJ1
The backup lights kicked in and gave little light to the subject. Lucy was being wheeled out of the central cylinder. This could not be a good thing at all.597Please respect copyright.PENANAnVNni90QvU
"Who shut down the power?" Timor yelled angrily.597Please respect copyright.PENANAr5qIJrNEtW
"I did." Mr. Fugasaki walked out from the shadows. "You put my little girl in danger by letting her do this."597Please respect copyright.PENANACHxcqr9xLI
"Sir I am so sorry but it was the only way we could get Bradford to do this."597Please respect copyright.PENANAMx29EJDfoG
"Did you even ask him prior to using Lucy?"597Please respect copyright.PENANAGZOBb9kUQi
"No sir we didn't."597Please respect copyright.PENANAaQnmylPxoY
"Timor you are so lucky that we are great friends." Mr. Fugasaki got closer to Timor. He rested his hand on Timor's shoulder. "What's the matter man, you were never like this before."597Please respect copyright.PENANAf6KiPzZBPR
"It's this whole deal. I haven't slept in days and the secretary here keeps rushing my work. If I would have had more time this may not have happened."597Please respect copyright.PENANAgl6b5WdnAc
"Well it did and now we are paying for it."597Please respect copyright.PENANACgDST5A44A
Mr. Fugasaki set his laptop down on Timor's desk, opened it, and typed in his password. He browsed through his files until he came to a video.597Please respect copyright.PENANAPCjavQ3biO
"What are you doing Mr. Fugasaki?" The secretary asked.597Please respect copyright.PENANAIsZo0w51mM
"Do you two remember the incident with the American scientists and their attempt with the VR project?"597Please respect copyright.PENANA5h26QkZCfY
"No." They both responded.597Please respect copyright.PENANAPDDWhsCzwC
"Well if you watch you can see what happens when you don't prepare completely."597Please respect copyright.PENANA5RLSjPmc9l
The video player popped up on the computer screen. With a click of the mouse a video started to play.597Please respect copyright.PENANA9D05ig9j0G
It started out with a group of kids laying on benches that leaned back at a 45 degree angle, six kids six benches. A man quickly entered the room slamming the door against the wall. He went to the back of each bench and unplugged the power cords that led to each one of them. Just a few moments after being unplugged the kids fell off the benches screaming in pain. A gaseous cloud was emitted into the room and then the feed went black.597Please respect copyright.PENANAgGo17jnkIm
"That is what could have happened here. They were reckless and never fully researched into the project. One person on the job wasn't enough. We on the other hand had multitudes of people working on our project. This should not have happened." Mr. Fugasaki closed the video and found a different folder. He opened it and a screen popped up with a passcode entry box.597Please respect copyright.PENANAs2biKxm5aJ
"Timor we have a problem."597Please respect copyright.PENANAIWbsdM2yRD
"Yes sir?"597Please respect copyright.PENANA8kFfPWCyUe
"I need your password."597Please respect copyright.PENANAv5115cjvoI
"Capital D-e-s-t-i-n-y-1-6-4." Mr. Fugasaki slowly typed in the password as Timor spoke it.597Please respect copyright.PENANAXipBliGXZk
"Ok thanks."597Please respect copyright.PENANA9n1W54H0v2
"What do you need it for?"597Please respect copyright.PENANAVsrPuCsrFu
"To see if I can get a reading on Bradford's vitals."597Please respect copyright.PENANAhXuEQevx70
"Shit! I forgot about him."597Please respect copyright.PENANAn9RhVF8lnN
After a few moments of digging around Mr. Fugasaki found the live update on Bradford's vitals. Small movements in the heart rate monitor proved that he was still alive.597Please respect copyright.PENANAzbu2l1CZQd
"How is the feed still running?" Asked the secretary.597Please respect copyright.PENANARfcyb9yvz9
"Backup generators." Replied Timor.597Please respect copyright.PENANAbIit4uOquH
"He looks to be alright. I'm going to go check on my daughter. Timor keep an eye on Bradford."597Please respect copyright.PENANATUcjmwdRpk
"Will do sir."597Please respect copyright.PENANARCtyg1ydc9
Mr. Fugasaki left the room to check up on Lucy. Bradford was still hooked up to the VR helmet but no one had the slightest idea what was going on with it. All the doctors scrambled around to try and find a way to see what was going on.597Please respect copyright.PENANAFsLEuNgB6b
Moments later one of the screens turned back on. It's the oddest thing because the monitors are not even hooked up to the backup generator. Then the strangest of things happened. Something was typing on the screen. It read does someone want to get this thing off me.597Please respect copyright.PENANAS9CTLadvja
"Great the bastards still alive."597Please respect copyright.PENANAMyiTpq7KyJ
