Chapter 7 - Something’s wrong

His eyes widened even more. "What-what did you just say?" He stammered, finding it hard to understand what he was hearing.

[I am connected to your brain through neural interface technology. I can read your thoughts and respond accordingly,]

The watch repeated, making Kia's mind to race with a million questions. Was he hallucinating? Or perhaps he was the one on drugs and this was all just in his head.

[You are not hallucinating, Kia. You have been granted access to a unique system designed to assist and increase your chances of survival in this apocalypse,]

Kia's head was spinning. "This...this can't be real," he whispered then he burst out laughing.he was framing or perhaps he was dead. That was the only explanation that could make sense to him talking to a watch.

Without saying a word, he rummaged through the drawers of the house, looking for something but he couldn't find anything of use.

He rushed towards the kitchen and opened a lower cabinet where he found a sciccors. He held it tightly in his hand and slowly approached the watch. He but down on his lips and closed his eyes, without hesitation, he raised the knife in the air, ready to Pierce the watch. But then....

[I wouldn't do that if I was you Using a knife to remove me won't work. You will only end up harming yourself in the process. Trust me.]

The watch warned but Kia's mind was too flounder to listen. "Shut up..." he yelled instead. "You are just a voice in my head. Who are you to tell me what I can and can't do with my own body" he ran his hand through his hair. Then he began to hit the watch, repeatedly with the hopes of getting it off but to no avail.

[Attending to remove the watch by force will only result in serious consequences.]

It warned again and just like before kia didn't listen. "Shut the fuck up!....shut up! Get out of my head." Kia yelled repeatedly and then he raised the knife  even higher.

[Proceed with caution! proceed with caution! proceed with caution!.]

The sound of the watch was now like an alarm, beeping loudly enough to drive a man insane.

"I told you to shut up!"

Saying that Kia hit the watch with all off his might, and mistakenly slice part of his wrist, then there was silence. He stood frozen in place, breathing heavily, watching as blood trickled down his wrist and he waited to see what would happen next.

Seconds passed and there was nothing, his breath came in forced gasped. Had he finally succeeded in getting rid of that awful voice? He was starting to feel relieved when he heard a low buzzing sound emanated from the watch and unfortunately, the sound only grew. The buzzing was so loud that Kia feared it would rapture his ear drum.

"Oh god! Shut up!" Kia yelled and held his hand over his ears but that didn't help. His ears began to bleed

[I warned you Kia.]

The female robotic voice sounded in his head and with that a high voltage current shot out from the watch, striking Kia and sending him flying across the room.

His body slammed against the wall and he crumpled to the fall. His body lay there, twitching like a dead cockroach with the watch still attached to his wrist.

Kia stared at the ceiling and tilted his head slowly to the side. "That's it." He muttered and his lips curled up. "I am dead." He added.

He was sure he was dead, there was no way all of this was real. He had successfully hung himself and he perhaps he was probably in another realm. He had expected hell to be more more fiery and painful, with whips and dragons and monsters. But this would do.

[You are not dead]

Came the voice again and this time kia sighed. He was better off dead.

"Oh really..."he muttered tirelessly and moved to lay on his side.

[You are very much alive. I am an Ai system programmed to fuse programmed to fuse with my host...]

The system kept talking but Kia was paying little to no attention. All he could think of was the possibility that he had succeeded in ended his life but now he wondered why he was here. Maybe it was the process of some kind of reincarnation he had read about.

He pushed himself up despite the pain and limped towards the door, jumping over the dead body.

The voice from the watch was still talking, but Kia had many thoughts running through his own head. He had come to the conclusion that what he was experiencing was some kind of stimulation before he gets reborn. What would he be reincarnated as?he thought walking towards the door and holding the door handle. The blood from his wrist was still dripping creating a trial on the floor as he made his was across the room.

"What would he be reincarnated as?" He muttered and bite down on his button lip. His fingers around the doorknob but he didn't open it. He seas just standing there thinking of countless possibilities of what he would be in his next life.

[Kia! Kia! Are you listening?

"Yeah, yeah. I am listening." He mumbled but he wasn't.

Maybe a girl? It would be cool to be born a girl. He would finally know what if feels like to have boobs and a pussy. "What would it be like to have tits?" He asked himself and opened the door.

[Danger! Danger! Danger….]

"For Christ sake will you just shut the fuck up," Kia yelled, but before he could finish his sentence, he stepped out of the room.

As soon as he did, his eyes widened in horror. He quickly shut the door behind him resting his back against the door frame his was body trembling uncontrollably.
