Phase 2

Having bought everything necessary for the persona that Alex would be taking on she went back to the house to prepare. There are going to be several appointments over the next couple of days that She will have to attend so as to get the requisite paperwork for the identification. This was still something that was a bit surreal. A fake identity with non-fake paperwork. People would laugh at the absurdity of it all, If it weren't also at the same time quite frustrating that it is actually just this easy to get official documentation.

Now one thing that was needed, was learning how to properly use these cosmetics, so that It didn't look like clown makeup. What better way than through video tutorials? After all, the web was absolutely rife with them. So what Alex did once home was use a small mirror and sit in front of the computer for several hours learning how to properly apply the makeup, amount and everything else. It wasn't as hard as he had thought it would be. and during the whole process he was rewarded with a notification of gaining a level in such things, So that made it worthwhile and didn't feel like a waste of time.

As it was starting to get late, and the only thing finished on the daily tasks was the run, Alex had figured it a good idea to work on some of the other daily tasks. He switched the audio on his computer from headphones to speakers, and turned his phone onto speaker as well. queuing up an audiobook on the computer over an introductory electrical engineering textbook. and a book of Jewish proverbs on the phone to both play at the same time, and began doing burpees for the next hour. He pulled up his status screen and quest log to see how it was looking.

He felt some measure of accomplishment seeing the slowly increasing stats, and experience. But he was also exhausted just from what little exercise he has done so far, and he isn't even halfway done with the daily quests, but its already starting to get late. He took a short break of about 10 minutes before getting onto the next parts of the daily, He was going to finish them even if it meant staying up to midnight. which was six hours away now. But dragging his but off the floor he started working on the pushups after hitting play again on the audiobook. It was a grueling four more hours. But the physical part was done.

With two hours left to go, he turned off the audiobook and continued to read it while laying down on the ground, about just over half of the book was left to read, at around 180 pages, with his reading speed, It would be close but not impossible to read those pages before the end of the day. Assuming he manages to not pass out before finishing. Which was a struggle for his willpower to stay awake from the crippling exhaustion he was feeling from that extreme workout he just completed. At some point however, his exhaustion was too much and he passed out, not aware of when or what time it was, just laying down on the floor asleep.

The morning light from the windows hit Alex's face waking him, The first thing that he is aware of is the excruciating soreness that he is feeling, the second is that It hurts to try and stand up or move at all. He is just not at all used to that kind of workout. Slowly he struggles to find his phone and see that its barely even seven in the morning.

He then opens up the quest log and notices that the quests have been refreshed. But there was also a notice of managing to complete the previous days dailies. It makes him feel slightly better about it, He pulled up the stats, and noticed that they were all a bit higher than what he figured they should have been. It seemed as if every stat had been rounded up to the next decimal place. That was not what his tests seemed to indicate, nor what it clearly showed as the improvements as he was working on them.

'This must be the benefits of completing the daily? it didn't mention anything besides an XP reward for completing them, but if it will also give a slight boost to the stats, well then that is just icing on the cake.' The thought gave him more energy to push through the soreness, and since it was still early, he quickly changed and spent the next four hours working on the dailies non-stop, managing to complete everything but the reading part.

Which he could do slowly through the day. However it was nearing eleven in the morning, and his first meeting with the social ID office was at one in the afternoon, So he needed to get showered and changed. Thankfully the workout got rid of the soreness, but now his body felt like jelly. And because he was still in the female form and hadn't switched back, he realized that he neglected one item yesterday while shopping, and that was athletic wear for this body. This was made painfully clear during the run both yesterday and today. so that would be the next thing to be done after the meetings and appointments.

He got back to the house just as a courier arrived with a small package. His signature was required, and he opened the small package. In it contained the birth records from the hospital. This incited a chuckle, because he fully took advantage of their poor reputation to get forged, yet now official documents proving the birth of Alexia Voss just nineteen years ago. A person who did not exist prior to twenty four hours ago.

Alex headed to the shower and got dressed with the new clothes from the mall trip yesterday, and took a little extra time to do the makeup, which pushed the limits of the time, but he was out the door with his wallet and keys in hand. also realizing that he might need to look at some handbags, because its not quite usual for women to go around without one. So it was just one more thing on the growing list of things to grab to properly portray this persona.

A short drive and a long wait at the social office, He is seen by the attendant and given forms to fill out, and instructed to wait some more. after a couple of hours, his turn came up again, he handed over all the forms and they typed stuff up on the computer. and the attendant said the social ID should be mailed out and will be received in about a week. and Alex left to go to the safety department office on the other side of town to get an ID card for Alexia.

This task was much more simple, she still had paperwork to fill out, but they took the birth certificate as well as the form from the social office, and the bill with Alex's name on it all at face value, had her pose for a photo and issued an ID with a temporary print off mentioning the same thing that the social office said, that she would receive the ID within a couple of days.

With this, now being an official identity that Alex could play around with. even so much as having legitimate documentation for it, which still was shocking how easy it was to just do this. It really showed a major problem in the bureaucracy of it all. One that really should be addressed, but at the same time, served her needs and purposes, exploiting these flaws.

Was it absolutely necessary to do so? No, not at all. Why then did Alex decide to take such actions? Well, mostly for the amusement and novelty to him of moving around as a completely different person. And for the experience such a thing would bring.

With the ID documents in hand, Alex was now ready to move onto the second part of phase two of his plan, He made his way to one of the local universities and went straight to their admissions office. It was convenient that their enrolment period for the upcoming semester was jut about to end as the new semester was about to start.

And after several hours at the college, and many forms filled out, both for enrollment, and financial documents for loans. Alex was enrolled into the college of sciences, with an ambitions degree plan that the administrator tried to talk him out of. but he was adamant about. Not just one or two majors but triple majors.

The administrative staff thought Alex to be crazy to do this, and were fully expecting him to drop some. And sure, Alex really didn't have the intention to even finish the degree. After he was done, he'd be making the whole field of study obsolete with their current knowledge. Such is the power of stealing technology from more advanced civilizations and reverse engineering it.

But that also came with the problem, which is exactly why Alex decided to enroll into the college, He had a fundamental lack of knowledge and understanding of even the basics, nor the knowledge skills to apply points to. So that is where the college played a roll. He enrolled himself into every class he could that they offered for physics, mathematics, structural engineering, aerospace, and electrical engineering. Ambitious if it was for a normal person to be sure, If not impossible. But all Alex really needed was the knowledge to just begin, of course he would still have to study and attending classes would clearly help accelerate the gain in skill levels. It was the proverbial two birds with one stone approach.
