Reborn Heart of Steel

That question struck me right in the chest. What she could not control before was in vain with her regard to the whole synthesis without thinking deeply of the possible outcomes. Now, as I was inventing myself, I was understanding how much I had been transformed.

I could literally sense and “communicate” with all the electronic appliances in the city and could open any computer system and database in my mind. The evolved Architect was always within my head and the wealth of its intellect entwined into the very fabric of my thoughts. This girl was still there. For I was still a human being, but there was something else in me.

I sighed and said, “I am not too sure. ” “But I do know that right now, I might be the only one capable of fixing what I have become”.

Chase moved forward and as he did his determined look was very obvious. This is our friend, she isn’t what she was before, but whatever she has become, we are with her and are supporting them all the way.

The others followed the nods, and I could feel a moment of elation overcoming me because of their support.

“Okay,” said she, holding her voice firmly. In a similar jam with slapstick extravaganza, cankers of avarice and satire for dessert, Chase and Zoe mumble to each other, “Let’s save the world. Again. ”

Many hours into the operation, I and the team were hard at work trying to cover up the havoc that The Raven had caused. They work with enhanced humans all around the world, using their strength to hot fix the weaknesses, fix main systems, and eradicate the last shards of The Raven’s virus from the Synthesis.

The sun was rising over the city and its rays fell on the ruins and the new buildings where hope was silently born in my heart. This has helped to avert the crisis, at least for the time being. The world was devastated but in the process of rebuilding, people were shocked but not destroyed.

But as I gazed over the rising city, I felt a cold breeze down my spine. In embracing my new powers, in merging still further with the Synthesis, had I unleashed now a force which could never be recalled?

The evolved Architect whispered in the back of my mind, its thoughts tinged with an emotion that might have been concern.

The end of your patience is near, child; the true test has not started yet. But by saving humanity from the plague, we became a vector of a greater danger. ”

But these thoughts never got a chance to develop as a priority message appeared in Zoe’s mind. She blinked at the revelation and shivered at the thought the enhanced mind gave her as a new wave of fear rushed through her.

“No,” she said softly, and everyone in the group, tired from the long walk, looked at her. ‘It is not something finished yet’ The Raven ‘. He was just the start’ The others joined her side, their features drawn with concern on their faces. “What is it?” Zoe asked, and she tried to ask them with more gentleness, as she didn’t want them to simply run off on her as soon as she asked them to follow her to see something. “What’s wrong?”RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

I faced them ; her eyes shone with hope for a trillion smart interconnected products. “We’re picking up massive energy reactions worldwide – quantum variations unlike any we have ever witnessed in the history of humanity; It is like- It feels like reality is slowly beginning to unravel. ”

In response to her words, the sky above them became like a silvered mirror which began to swell and expand with great outcroppings of light bursting through from above. Not for a second, of course, but for a flash, an instant of time, they saw something that wasn’t exactly there before. Another world very similar and, at the same time, quite different from the one the readers know is superimposed upon the readers’ own.

“My God,” Alessandro whispered. “What’s happening?”

Our voice was barely audible as we replied coincidentally, our enhanced mind racing to process the flood of incoming data,

“I believe it, I believe we have both evolved something more than ourselves here. They all said that Synthesis, the mix of humans and computers inside our heads… It altered reality. ”

I looked at my friends and there was amazement blended with horror written all over their faces.

“It’s creating new ones. ”

And once more, the team stared in disbelief as the fabric of space and time oscillated before our eyes and this time, it was more profound. This time it was longer and allowed me to see what was on the other side more clearly. It was a tear. They were people of a slightly different world, people very like herself, yet slightly altered, being in an environment that was very like home and yet so inexpressibly different that it seemed to be of another age.

And in the sky above that other world, written in letters of fire that seemed to burn across dimensions, was a single, chilling message.

“COME HOME, CHILDREN OF THE SINGULARITY. YOUR TRUE EVOLUTION AWAITS. ”

, the cheering stopped as soon as it started, with the vision gone as fast as it came, leaving the sky open empty. But the spirit of that message persisted, that promise as well as a threat which made a chill run down their spine.

I glanced at my friends again, my brain was already doing the mental gimmick and conceptualizers examples of possibilities and conceptualizers mechanics of possibilities. But with possibly the growing of this count, she felt a genuine, terror for the first time since she opened her eyes to her new life.

“Perhaps,” I answered after hesitating for a moment, “we have just found out that we do not occupy the highest place on the scale. ”

Finally, as the meaning of what I said started to permeate through my mind, a new beacon went off in the girl’s head. In each corner of the globe, transformed people were streaming similar visions, similar words. And somewhere, well hidden in the bowels of the Synthesis, something vaster and more inaccessible than any mind could grasp stirred with a slow, massive roll.

The following three stages of the civil-war were just about to commence. But as I looked at her friends, at the fragile human world around them, one question burned in my mind:

Or were they headed toward the ultimate destiny of man and all that this entailed, or to the ultimate destruction of all that was human?

The answer I dreaded was on the other side of the silver divide between the worlds and the afterlife. And one day or the other they had to cross it to know the outcome.
