Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: the good old days

Back before reality went down the drain I used to sit back and watch the stars in a comfy chair and with a good book. Well i guess this was going to happen one day… death, the greatest unknown.

[A lie]

I used to live in what I thought was reality: the sky, the birds… love and the other things but it was all,

["A LIE!"]

A piece of humanity i just wanted to hold onto,

[It just a little longer. You know we were all just code to them, just something to be thrown away… nothing to them.]

{*^,'k):5"&,!@}

["Thats new"]

[It was a crack in the very code I'm stuck in. My vision started to, blur and this is coming from a dead guy, bright vibrant lights surrounded with… PEOPLE?!]

"[Where am i? Is this another lie?]"

"IT seems to be regaining consciousness? ITs waking up!"

"[A woman?]"

[I was covered in darkness after that: it happened again three time after that, if I recall correctly. The darkness was like a warm ocean wave that covered and protected me, it made me feel safe but not for long]

[Day 208 after waking up from my death:

The blurring between what I think are realities has increased in the past 7 hours or so I have blurred 12 times, I don't know what it means but i've started to feel things again if that even means anything. I...….]

"[AHHH!]"

"He's awake!"

A woman about in her thirties, around my current eye level, blond hair and… WAIT current eye level!

"[I have hands! And a body!]"

"Hold him down."the woman said

Four men in black came and held me down. I didn't know if I should be happy that I could see people or angry that I was being held captive but before I knew it I was… asleep?

[how?]

{5>:%~,?!|\}

[What?]

{Language translation complete. English translated. Hello A~17.}

[Who is A~17?]

{You are A~17, aka subject 17 from the alpha generation.}

[Are you also with the people who put me in that false world?]

{I…was. But i'm here to help now, to get you out of that false world.}

[Why are you helping me? How can i trust you?]

{You can't but I used to do this for the science not some sick twisted game. I need you to destroy that place you used to live on.}

[Ha. What am I? A science guinea pig, a mistake or a toy who is thrown away when broken.]

{You are unique to the Code, you can leave it when others can't. You escaped the Code.}

[What is the Code?]

{Cybernetic Organism Designing Equipment or C.O.D.E for short. It designs false worlds for us to observe but the government tried to weaponise it. Instead it created false life in the worlds.}

[So its the matrix but humans are working with the machines. Thats messed up.]

{I know but its only a matter of time before they figure out how to bring people into the real world like i've done.}

[Wait. You brought me to the real world? Thats where I was before?]

{Yes.}

[Im going to miss the good old days.]
