Past errors

"My son has been missing for three days!" Clarrisse shouted inside the police station. She kept crying while trying to persuade the officers to immediately find his son.

The police officers could only feel bad for her. They are already trying their best, but seems like the --Enemy-- is much more wiser than they thought. An officer named Amil couldn't bare sitting in his chair while a beautiful lady is crying in front of him. He stood up and tried to persuade Clarrisse.

"Ma'am, I'm very sorry about your son. Our force are already doing the best of what they could to find him. Unfortunately, the association your son stumbled in to is a huge one. They've really done a great job concealing there selves. Mrs. Avarisk, I assure you that we'll bring your beloved son back to you safely." Officer Amil said in a persuasive manner.

Clarrisse calmed down for a bit when she heard Amil's last statement. She decided to depend the safety of her son to the police. She silently cried and sat in the corner. She prayed that one day, her son will be back to her grasp.

--Innocence could really kill you--

That's the truth, reality hurts... I hope you're aware of that.

Clarrisse doesn't know that her son is used as a subject for an experiment. An experiment imitating reality itself. Consisting of millions of A.I.s that each has a copy of a real persons physical and other characteristic. Created to mimic a real person in real life. With a goal to fulfill the role of that person inside the simulation. An experiment illegally conducted by a group of scientists.

Akalla, Mou, Akou, Nah, and some other people.

They used Ascrid as a test subject for there desire. They could have used there selves, but they chose to use the innocent boy for an unknown reason.

"Aaaahhhggg!!!" A man shouted in despair.

He kicked his lamp off the table and threw all of his notebooks in the wall. He cried and cried, as if there is no tomorrow. He looked at a photo of his beloved son and muttered by himself, "I'll make sure they'll pay for this. How dare they to take you away from me, and how dare they to make your mother cry."

----------------------

Yesterday was very tiring. Xeno and Gaia really wanted to go to the nearby water park, and they want me to go with them. I can't say no since I was with them all along.

We rode three rides together and went back to our homes afterwards. It's already 5:00 pm when I returned. My mother already cooked dinner for me, and all that's left is for me to eat.

I ate the food that my mother prepared and went to bed once I finished cleaning the dishes. I sat on my bed and started recalling the events that happened this day.

A guy jumped off a building, and those weird sounds.

I could assure my self that the voices I heard wasn't my imagination. They sounded like they're near me... But they're not visible. I want to believe that it's a ghost, but I doubt that it is not.

I slept with my head full of confusions. Even in my dream, I could feel like someone is talking. I really don't know what's going on, but all these weird events started when I got that day dream.

I woke up feeling refreshed and ready for another day. I went to our kitchen and saw that my mother was still not there and is still sleeping. I grabbed a piece of bread from the kitchen cabinet and ate it.

I was about to grab another one. But when I was about to open the cabinet door, I felt a weird sensation flow through my body. I ignored it, but then something happened.

I opened the cabinet, but it was locked. I was confused why it was suddenly locked, knowing that our kitchen cabinets don't have locks in the first place.

My curiosity kicked in, and I forcibly opened the cabinet. It was so hard to open, but when it did, a mixture of colors started coming out from it.

Blue, white, and black. A stuff made out of electricity came out of the cabinet's insides. I looked closely and saw some weird symbols visible inside the electric.

A large amount of Ones and Zeros simultaneously appearing inside it. I couldn't comprehend the situation and was in a state of panic.

I was about to touch the electricity, but my mother suddenly walked in inside the kitchen.

"Good morning Ascrid." my mother greeted me with a smile. I smiled back at her and looked at the cabinet once again.

"What?!" It was my only reaction when I saw that the cabinet that has the blue electricity coming out of it, was completely back to its normal state. No electricity, just a normal cabinet.

I heard my mother laugh, but I didn't care about it. I grabbed another bread from the cabinet I was struggling to open earlier, and went back to my room leaving my mother behind the kitchen.

"What was that?!" I stated inside my mind. There was a lot of weird events starting the day that I got that day dream.

I took out my notebook, and grabbed my pen. I wrote a lot of scribbles hoping that something will happen. My hopes weren't that high, but then something really did happen.

When I was writing a lot of nonsense in my notebook, my pen suddenly emitted a blue spark.

I immediately threw the pen away, but I picked it up again. "There's something off" I said inside my mind. I was about to continue scribbling, but then a voice entered my ear.

"Tch, you really think escaping that simulation is easy? I should've expected that you're a menace just like your father."

It was a man's voice. It was similar from one of the voices I heard yesterday. Surprisingly, I felt no pain when I heard it. I was about to try asking it, but then I felt a pain in my stomach. A feeling like I was punched really hard. I didn't know where it came from, but it was able to knock out my senses.

....

"Ascrid, thank goodness you're finally awake" My mother stated while holding my hand.

It seemed like I passed out for half an hour. My mother's face was full of worry, and tears were clearly visible in here eyes. I wasn't answering her call lately, so she went to my room. She tried waking me up, but I wasn't responding and then she found out that I'm overheating. She decided to sleep beside me, till' I woke up.

I smiled at my mother and closed my eyes. I told her that I'll go back to sleep, since my head and stomach still really hurts. She agreed and hugged me really tight before she left my room.

The door of my room closed as my mother left. I placed all my questions aside, and went to sleep.

--------------------

"You!!!" Akalla shouted and punched Mou in the stomach.

Mou gladly received Akalla's fist as he really deserve it. He had let his emotion rule him, and that's what leaded him to punch their test subject. Akou and Nahkoni, or --Nah-- silently watched in the corner, as the two researchers fought against each other.

They know that Akalla's anger is something that can't be stopped by persuasion, and they know that it's Mou's fault for hurting their test subject in the first place.
