Actual civilization

The next two days were mostly boring with the old man filling in some gaps such as my current knowledge, common sense and some stuff regarding current political affairs currently available to the public.

"Is there a window I can look through?"

"No but you can look out the top of the hatch." He said while getting up

He moved to the center of the vehicle and tapped an area on the roof. It swung open and sunlight was allowed in. He waved me over and I got up out of my seat. Seeing as how short I was I wouldn't be able to look out. He sighed and bent down. I was confused for a second before he pat his shoulder and I understood his intention.

I hopped on his shoulders and he smoothly stood up. Sitting in front of us was a large...pile of shit. The streets were littered with garbage and I think I even spotted some of the actual stuff sitting in a corner that no one bothered to clean. This nightmare called the future stretched on for miles and when I looked back to the forest all I could see was a beautiful thing twisted to madness.

The old man had told me things had degenerated in some areas and it clearly wasn't just in some areas.

Past all the disgusting garbage in front of us was a massive wall and past that was another even larger wall. To my displeasure we would not be going past even the first wall.

We instead would be heading to a military base just outside the first wall. Thankfully we were nearing said military base and I wouldn't have to look at the heaping pile of garbage society had turned into.

...

It only took thirty minutes more bro get to the base and I was happy to see the military had still kept its order. The tank we had. Even traveling in stopped to let us out. After every except those necessary to drive it we're let out it drove off out of sight.

The old man and a younger man exchanged some words I didn't care to listen to and we were led into a large building. We were led to a door and told to wait outside. I assumed there was some important meeting that would have probably made even the most attentive zone out. I honestly respected those that could sit through them without their attention being broken.

Suddenly the door opened and out came another old man though this one seemed extremely annoyed.

More boring happened and I completely zoned out till I felt something jab me. I looked to what it was and was jet with a cane. The annoyed looking old man had thrust his cane into my stomach.

"Now look here-"

"No you look here prune although I look young I am CENTURIES older than you! I don't care how annoyed you are at the world, it doesn't give you the right to jab me with your cane. I don't care about how important your stupid meeting was or how intensely and passionately you were talking about the best way black coffee is had. Jab me again and I just might have your arms removed, ARE. WE. CLEAR?"

He backed up a few steps and I was proud with my work. The people I hated most were those that were arrogant. You could have pride but arrogance is a fools tool to make him or herself seem like a big shot.

"Now I'd like to move on with my life so please ask whatever you need so I can leave."

"Ahem, how about we move somewhere more private." He said looking around

"Fine just make this quick."

We walked for a few minutes before coming to a room meant for interrogation. It was honestly quite amusing how much this old man thought of himself.

We each took a seat, each across from each other.

"Do you mind if this is recorded?"

"No as long as there aren't a bunch of people that are going to be listening."

"Fair enough."

"So what is it you want to know?"

"Well, ahem how old are you?"

"I am 360 years, four months and 7 days old."

"Can you tell me how you came to be such an age with such a youthful body?"

"My father or the doctor if you will, put me in one of his prototypes. A stasis pod."

"How is such a thing possible when technology was at such a young stage?"

"Personally I don't know, I was not one of them."

"One of them?"

"Oh yes a researcher at the lab. If my information is correct I am a top secret experiment."

"Can you tell me more about this lab and what you mean by top secret experiment?"

"Well I don't know much about either but let's start with the beginning of my time there. It was about 340 years ago when I a regular male college student-"

"Wait did you just say male?"

"Yes, yes I did. My original gender was male but father changed me for the better!"

"I see...you may continue."

It annoyed me a bit but I continued, "well on my way home from work I was chased down and run over by this big truck. When I had thought I escaped I was proven wrong and hit. That is the first time I met father!

What was weird was how the truck had no driver and father seemed to talk to it like a person. Anyway next thing I knew I was in this body! My second encounter with father was after I had woken up. I was at first scared of him but I grew to love him very quickly. Oh wait let me show you him."

I pull out the jar and place it on the table.

"Here he is!"

"This is your father?"

"Oh yes he said he had another stasis pod but he lied and when I woke up he was already bones. Anyways back to the lab.

During my first week they only ran some tests and did checkups every so often. But after that I was brought to a room where they did many experiments. The first one only lasted two hours but I truly wanted to die then.

Have you ever had your stomach cut open, or a toe slowly sawed off? I expect not but it is truly a terrible thing. Especially how widely they smiled as they continued to cut, break and saw. They seemed especially happy when jabbing my eye out with a scalpel.

I don't know what it was but I managed to stay awake the whole time. After that I lost consciousness and when I woke up I was completely fine. I was then led to my room and the experiments continued. I tried killing my self several times only to be punished by father who was the only nice person in that facility. I found out very quickly it is quite hard to kill me.

Eventually I became accustomed to the pain and we even became friends she's here right now even."

"Don't tell me she's invisible."

"No she's up here silly." I say while pointing to my head

"I'll get her, her own body eventually but until then she's sticking with me."

"Ah...ok."

"Now where was I? Oh yes the experiments! They severely increased in time and frequency. In no time at all they became boring and I was finally brought to a new room. There I fought and killed many other people.

About a year later the lab was raided by some sort of military group who I assume wanted to use us as weapons."

"Us?"

"Oh yes as I said I fought many other people. Well I wasn't the only experiment there. Again my information isn't totally accurate but if I'm right there were 780 rooms for people like me." So I expect there was at least quite a few if not all of the rooms were full."

"My god."

"Anyways they blew a hole in and apparently there intention was to save them but they shot father and I killed them. Or at least one of them. Me and father then made our way to his lab. There he put me in his prototype claiming he had another one and he would be there when I woke up but he lied. But he's still here." I say while cradling the jar

"Can you tell me more about yourself then?"

"We'll all I know is that I was stitched together meaning most of these body parts don't belong to each other. As I assume you know I have super regeneration, super strength and more probably."

"Probably?"

"Well you see this metal thing? It's a limiter of sorts and currently I can only handle releasing the second "seal" or whatever you wanna call it. My body can't handle all that power at the moment. I've tried it before and I lose control before exploding which is probably the worst thing that's ever happened to me before."

Note: gonna stop it here for now. This is now officially the longest chapter yet.

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed.
