EVO-VERSE 1: the beginning HOPE
۩I sat up on the bed with my knees held close to my chest as I shivered in fear, lost in my desperate thoughts as the Medical doctor wore a sneer on his face and stood observing the monitor, seemingly proud that he had successfully broken me. He soon left after taking notes and telling me that I would be discharged by the next day and to take a good rest until then. Really, what kind of treatment was this?I gave no regard to his words and continued to think. All my life, I had been running, tussling and tumbling in and out of trouble and misfortune. For a moment, I felt tired and I wanted to give into whatever was chasing me, but I was certain that I would end up in that space again if I did, and that only made me tremble in fear. I knew to cooperate, but who is to tell if I was just going to be used and not taken ‘care’ of the next moment, in fact, I am certain that was going to be the case. So there was no stopping, there was no rest for me, I rather keep running in thirst until I
EVO-VERSE 1: the beginning A SHORT VOYAGE
۞“Roberta, I'm heading out" I needed to get a Vector device. You might want to ask why I didn't ask Roberta to make an order as that would be more ideal considering the era I live in. However, purchasing a Vector device requires physical Identity verification plus miscellaneous processes. You might also be wondering why I had told Roberta that I was heading out as she was a home AI device that had a sensory radar, Well... old habits. As they say, modern problems require modern solution, more or less for a desperate bachelor like myself.I boarded a train from Bargon city and it took only half of an hour to reach the closest Highlands city- Gevora. The city lies within the previous Europe continent which is now only part of the Highlands. My destination was the best technology company in the whole World;"Cloud wares" the branch company in Gevora specifically.I rented a Flobile since the company was quite far away from the train station. It wasn't an easy task to find a vacant Flobi
EVO-VERSE 1: the beginning DUTY CALLS
◊Clad in a deep blue Kent blazer, I removed my Fedora hat and raised my gaze towards the facility structures behind the tall walls. A part of the wall slid open automatically, and I took several anxious steps forward after verifying my ID in a HUD process, or I would risk facing military assault otherwise, as the facility's surroundings was a restricted area.'This is one of the SPAX Corp Inc.’s facilities?'I looked around in awe ignoring the stares and glares of everyone. I was directed to the training facility- Struct 4, by the AI system guiding the gate. The whole grounds was busy as people went to and fro in a rush. On my way towards Struct 4, walking along the pavement, I took a glance at the other structures and saw that it got bigger and bigger by numbers. Struct 1 stood the largest as it took almost enough space for a whole district. It had to be so and could only be, since it was one of the main experimental Structs of SPAX Corp Inc.The sun hid behind the clouds early in t
EVO-VERSE 1: the beginning SOLSTICE! LONG DAYS AND LONGER NIGHTS
‡Darkness loomed all over the room as the moon peeked from behind the dark clouds. The soft breaths of both mine and hers, mixed with the silence in coherence, forming a sort of gentle rhythm.Serena, as she had briefly introduced herself in curtsy earlier, slept close to me in her late 20s birthday suit with a;"Master, this is the only comfortable way for me to sleep" excuse.My eyes were wide open, heart beat fast and my thoughts were in a mess as I could feel her warmth; including her plump and soft mushrooms' occasional massages as she changed positions underneath the covers. I was in a rigid state since she was irrefutably alluring to my 'senses'.*gulp*I gazed at her and saw that she was fast asleep. I gladly rearranged my state and closed my eyes to sleep as well.However, a hoarse voice resounded from nowhere, and I could only see its warm red reassuring eyes in my mind as it spoke to me in a whisper"This might be your only chance" my eyes shut open afterwards and I looked
EVO-VERSE 1: the beginning EGO-PROXY 001
‡The spacious hall that was once desolate the first time I stepped in this struct was now as lively as a grig. Co-trainees were discussing, sharing their speculations, and trying to figure out whether the other person near was nervous or not, just so they could improve their composure. I stood at the sideline listening to their words and observing their expressions while they spoke with airs to themselves.A beautiful lady, probably in her middle age, dressed in a dark Ash shrink-wrapping space suit like everyone else seemed to be not above herself as she went about conversing with other trainees and wishing them good luck. At first stance, she looked confident, considering the big grin on her face but in fact, she was just as nervous as anyone in the hall from a closer perspective."Good luck" She approached and said to me."Same as yourself" I replied with a gentle smile that I knew was only seen as nervous by others, since I could feel the corners of my lips twitching. But then I
EVO-VERSE 1: the beginning Big Bang! My universe
Initiating launch in 10.. 9.. 8..Sitting in front of the control and navigation system above the launch pad area in the facility of the extended reality, I watched with great excitement as Ego-proxy 001 prepared to launch. The announcement was made by the AI itself and the sky scrambled to show each count.3..2 .. 1*Wheeze!*I could feel the intense heat from the elevation as the Spacepod launched into the distant skies and from the glass window, I had a clear view of it all. Despite having seen so many documentaries that were of this nature, It felt different to launch a spacecraft that I built myself as in this case, and I could say with all that I had that this was one of the best experiences."woo hoo! Yeah!" I successfully built a spacecraft and launched it, I just couldn't help but feel as though I was Space Prime Drake Fordham who had the same backstory, only that his was in real time... He is a renowned space technologist of my era.After Failing to make Ego-proxy 001 launc
EVO-VERSE 1: the beginning REALIZATION!
It still remains a wonder how everything in the universe is connected into a motion of evolution, though with different end outcomes. The Sun despite being the hottest star in the solar system, exudes the solar energy that sustains life in the planets as they orbit around it. It was truly a sight to behold staring at the solar plane that I've created in the Extended reality just by my thought. Nonetheless, seeing that no announcement arrived from the AI however, I figured that there was more to be done to complete this test phase so I roamed about the space of the extended reality, looking for any other task that seemed obvious enough to do so as to end this test phase. I didn't know how much time had passed outside but I reckon it couldn't be more than few hours at most. 'Are there any lives in other galaxies, just as ours?' I pondered to myself in contempt. It was only plausible that since life exists in the Milky way, there should be life in other galaxies as well. Even though no
EVO-VERSE 1: the beginning Relativity, mock me while you still can!
The flobile I ordered arrived long past breakfast in the morning and the sun shone bright as the white clouds drifted apart, indicating that it was almost noon. I left Spax corp with bouncy step and literally in flying style as well if you considered, well... Anyway, I wouldn't say that it hadn't been a great time in here but I already missed my lovely home. There was a limit to the things I could do here compared to my home. It took a little less time than I imagined to reach home since there wasn't any sightseeing during the drive and upon getting inside my rundown apartment with only few details setting it apart from that of any low-life;"Welcome home, Jenkins!" In her usual flat monotonous tone that's been practically etched in my being, Roberta greeted."Thanks Roberta. Hehe, did you miss me?" I asked in a bit joking manner to which she didn't reply. "Could you order me lunch?" yeah, it was about that time already."On it, ordering cheeseburgers and cold Desstark cocktails on co
