SE7EN: Transcendence
What would you do if you woke up and decided to look out at the dawning morning only to see yourself still lying in bed? What would you do if your 21st birthday was the last time you would ever age? What would you do if you were being chased by the NSA? How would you feel if you were hunted by a creature that could take any form it wished?
That is Michael’s life. From the time he was fifteen he knew he was much different from everyone else. He had his own successful technology company and was at school at MIT. This is as far back as he can remember any true memory.
He had always known things, whether it was about people or just events, and went with his feelings about whatever split in the road was set in front of him. Staring out the window of his bedroom, he turned around to find he was still in bed. Was it a dream? Before figuring out what was going on, the government was trying to catch him.
Running from the NSA and trying to figure out how to control his new powers, he runs into something very evil that wants nothing less than to kill him. His new enemy can take on any form he wants at any time.
Using his power to split himself in two, he spends his time trying to find out one other mystery. How did the government know about him before he did? Learning to split his body, trying to find his purpose in life, searching for the woman he lost and trying not to get killed, Michael comes to find out one truth to his reality. The only thing he has to fear in this word is himself.

Chapter: Epilogue Life is a crazy and bizarre thing to behold and even more strange to actually live out. My own life has been more interesting than most. Time, and a lot of it, has been spent on trying to understand why this all happened to me. Finally, I realized there was no point in asking that question. The purpose of me having these abilities is much more important and even if I did find out why I was like this, I could not go back and change it. Matt and Bob are running all the business, now. To be honest, I would shut them all down if it was not for the fact they employed a large number of people and I do not want to make them all jobless. The family is all looking over their shoulders and either seeing the government following them aroun

Chapter: Knowing is Half the Battle Expectations of life in the mind of every child leave anything to the imagination to become reality. When you are older those expectations change and reality of life starts to beat down imagination. In the end those who can keep more of their imagination are the ones that end up as the minority and seem odd to the rest of the world. Sitting down next to Delilah, the server poured wine for the table. Around the room there were some nervous faces and one that was stone cold as ever. “So, General, I am sure you want to begin your questions,” picking up my glass. “Almost a month ago I did say I would tell you what you wanted to know over the last ten years. Now is your opportunity, but remember something,” taking a sip of wine, “there are

Chapter: Time Is On My Side, Yes It Is Watching an episode of ‘The Twilight Zone’ when I was in college, I wondered about time. Time was a strange thing we knew almost nothing about. Standing in the hallway without any sound or light, a pin dot sized light come from the end of the hallway. Heading toward the light I passed the interrogation room and then the board room. With the light still growing in size my body kept heading toward it. Stopped and leaning against the wall, there was no recollection of the building ever being that long. Focusing on the lights being on, light blared into the hallway with enough force to blind me for a moment. I thought I was looking down the hallway, but there was nothing

Chapter: I’m Positive, Maybe At one time I dated this girl that use to make fun of me whenever I said I was positive about anything. She used to say it was not good to be positive because something could always change. I found out that she was right. Breathing frantically and with sweat pouring down my face, nothing around me seemed familiar. Splitting myself constantly, it was becoming more difficult to figure out which me was where. Confusion was setting into my unconscious mind at night when while sleeping. Between that and all the half real dreams in strange places, it seemed like I was never in the same place twice. Baal had been in my dream this time, or nightmare, trying to come through the glass as he had done just a few hours before. Not wearing a

Chapter: Float Like a Butterfly and Sting Like a (Insert Noun) Watching boxing or mixed martial arts was always fun. I am not sure if I ever could get in the ring and try to fight with someone in that way. It always seemed too brutal and I would have been afraid that with all the adrenaline and emotion I would not be able to stop. Sitting Indian style in my little room with my keepers behind the wall sized mirrors watching me, I felt at ease knowing the time was close for me to leave this place. A plate of food was sitting on the desk next to the bed. Not a single bite had been touched. Something was coming and I could feel it near. Food would only upset my stomach more. Looking around for any sign, my focus was on the mirror in front of me. It would be about a month before leaving th

Chapter: How to Become a Vox Reality television shows have birthdays on because they can be entertaining. Twenty-One is the age you are truly considered an adult in the United States. The age when you can legally drink and the age when most people have graduated from college, but my 21st birthday was something utterly different. Waking up to a flashlight being shined in your eyes is a terrible way to avoid headaches. Some woman was shining a light in one eye and a man shining one in the other. McCoy was holding smelling salts in his hand in front of me under my nose. Swatting his hands away, “That’s enough!” swatting away everyone with lights. “Can you please get the fuck out of my face!” my hand was up holding my head which was throbbing with pain.&nb
