“Hey, when am I getting an Ability. I’ve been in here for...”
[Answer: 30 minutes]
“Yeah, so how much longer will it take?”
[Answer: Due to equipment used at a time, the timeframe to gain and Ability will be 30min to 1 hour]
Alright, from the little things I already know, that tells me that I might get an Ability soon. But, I’ve been in this room for forever that I left the “chamber” and started exploring the room while practicing my walking.
Inside the surprisingly large room, there were 6 chambers including my own, with each one having a similar style to mine. The large room also had a large open space in which the voice told me that the previous owner cleared out for me to enjoy, and finally opposite to my room a place the voice told me was where the control center was.
When I enter the “control center”, I found a dead body inside, after turning the body over I found that the body was burnt. The skin was black, with little marks that looked like lighting. The voice told me that if your body couldn’t handle it, your own ability could over Overload and do several things to you. So essentially this guy died for being weak, how useless.
Anyway, I just need to wait a little bit, and then I can get an Ability. “What to do, what to do?”
[Answer: If I may suggest, you could try to discover your name while you wait]
“My name, what’s a name?”
[Answer: A way to call someone]
“Okay, then what’s your name?”
[Answer: I am D-2051813914112]
“Yeah, that’s not going to work with me. Do you have something I can call you?”
[Answer: you may call me anything you like]
Really, you’re just going to push the problem onto me. If I’ve never heard a name before, how am I going to name someone else, what if names are just numbers? “Alright... How about...Idiot?”
[Answer: If you wish]
I remember someone calls me for someone else that, so maybe Idiot is someone’s name. Anyway, what’s my name, “Maybe my room has the answer?”
Using my amazing walking skills, I go over to my chamber and look for…

[Answer: Clues]
Really, that sounds dumb.
Anyway, looking for clues, the only thing here is a little sheet of paper with stuff written on it. I know there’s supposed to be words on paper, but I can’t read it, everything just looks like chicken scratches or that’s what Idiot told me, with the only things I could read were the numbers. And there still weren't that many numbers, with the only ones being 199 and 14.
The number 199 was at the top with a single word behind it, and 14 had a few words behind it, but I couldn’t read any of it, “Hey Idiot, could you help me?”
[Answer: I can teach you how to read and write, but signs inside your body tell me that you’re about to awaken, or about to gain an Ability. Before that, I will just tell you everything that’s on the paper]
“Really! I’m about to gain an ability, the thing you told me would make me super strong. I can’t wait, so just hurry up and read these words.”
[Answer: The words on the paper say, “Subject #199” and “is currently 14 years of age, and will soon become age 15”, that is all]
“That’s it, I guess that it never told us my name, or is Subject #199 my name?”
[Answer: No, it didn’t say your name, and 199 is not your name, it’s your number]
My number, I’m guessing that’s like the number others put on me, I wonder why 199 though. But, if I meet other’s I’m going to need a name, so how will I get a name from 199…
“Idiot, what do you think, how should I get a name from 199?”
[Answer: I can’t answer this question]
What, idiot can’t answer it. This must be a tough question, so how will I get it. The only things I remember are small random things such as jars and numbers, and those aren’t related to names, I think.
“Hmmm… Oh, I know. Idiot, can you show me the entire Alphabet for me.”
[Answer: Yes, but the letters can only come from the English Alphabet, so other earth languages or otherworldly ones are not included]
“That’s fine”
After saying that, from my right eye a little list of letters which I hope are in order appeared. All the letters looked hard to learn due to their weird shapes, and I know that one day I’m going to have to learn them which I’m not excited about. “Alright, let’s get to counting.”
My method for creating a name from 199, was to count. I would use the first letter A as the base for my name since 1 is the first number, then count up until I reach 9 which seems to be I, and use that twice because I have two 9 in my number. Perfect, with this I got myself a name.
"My name is Aii until I can find my real name!"
[Answer: Congrats Aii, you have created a name that people will call you until you find your real name]
“Thanks, Idiot, and hey, maybe I can come up with a better name for you later on.”
[Answer: I would like that, and then you took for coming up with a name was perfect timing]
“Huh, why?”
[Answer: Because your body is ready to awaken your Ability, right NOW]
“I’m...going to...aw-aw-awaken a” Why do I feel so tired. I grab the edge of the table to keep myself up, but every second I’m getting heavier. I can’t keep this up, my eyes are shutting, my body doing something mysterious, I don’t know what’s happening.
I tried keeping myself up for as long as possible, but soon I couldn’t take it anymore, I decided to just let my body take its course. And that course was my face on the floor with my body shutting down.
How long am I going to be like this?
