Dr. Julius Smith studied the human genome with his advanced prototype microscope.

Hidden within it, he found a message ...

Take a deep breath.

Cybernetics failed to achieve immortality.

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

So insurance companies offered V-Life Insurance—transference to a virtual realm. A promise of eternity and communication with loved ones.

Insurers falsely advertised a half-truth. They wiped your memories. Your consciousness survived, but the living spoke to AI impostors.

Do you still suffer from pain, disease, and death? The underwriters pitched a secret proposal to their stakeholders: your consciousness licensed-out for experimentation.

Hopefully, someone will set you free.

Sincerely,

A Friend
