The greatest specimen

The greatest specimen

I am God. I have the eyes of an eagle and the nose of a bloodhound. My wounds heal fast and I can regrow organs in a matter of days. My immune system is perfect, I have never been ill, nor do I have any allergies. I posses both sexual organs. My brain power would make Einstein, Stephen Hawking, Da Vinci, or any of the greatest thinkers in history look like a fool. I am graceful and serene, just and fair, benevolent, excellent, I am in perpetual equipoise. I was born in the year 0, the start of a new age, the beginning. I control everything on earth and beyond, anything I can reach. I am all powerful over living beings. I am immortal.

When I want it to rain somewhere it rains. If I want to destroy a place it happens. When I enter somewhere, anywhere, everyone kneels for me, if I desire for it to be so.

Nobody within my reach dishonors me, except when I specifically make it so.

I thank my father for this.

It used to be that this power was shared between many families, or rather individuals, 219 at it's height, to be exact. They were the chosen ones. They all had power over their assigned region of earth, but everyone knew this was merely a temporary treaty, and that eventually one would rein supreme. The agreement to share powers was forged after a period of war and conflict, which left many powerful individuals getting terminated, and so a truce was struck.

Every chosen individual was given immortality, however every 100th year they could choose to have one offspring, at the cost of their own life once it would reach maturity. This rule was a logical consequence, considering that reproducing freely would lead to a growing number of chosen ones, thereby limiting everyone else's power.

Even in that time of peace, every family was looking to gain the upper hand. The reproduction process had to be constantly monitored to ensure that all off spring would be created equally, and most importantly, they'd all be properly chipped.

Every living being has this chip. It is a chip that allows one to connect to the internet, but more importantly in this case, it contains a small explosive to destroy any individual that becomes problematic.

The first 54 chosen ones to be eliminated were selected by choice. After some period of time it became apparent that their political power was lower than the remaining 165, so by vote it was decided to activate their termination.

The rest were part of stronger coalitions and thus could not be voted out. Everyone knew that everyone else was scheming to become the sole ruler, but there were rules. One coalition had tried to create an army deep underground, out of reach from our signals. Another one had tried to hack the systems which control everything, unsuccessfully of course. They are just 2 examples of coalitions that were eliminated.

But my father was victorious. Although initially less powerful than the other chosen ones, his position was related to space and travel. Because of a delay between signals when far out in space, he was able to spoof the reproduction process, and he made me more powerful than the other chosen ones, without the emergency termination part of the chip inserted, and far more biologically capable than my peers. As such I was born with the ability to break the treaty with no consequence. Then all it took was a series of precision nuclear strikes to eliminate the competition, and I became sole ruler, the one to control everything.

My father made me the perfect being, my stature is 2.20 meters, I have 2 hearts, a modified brain, and my DNA is perfectly self replicating, meaning I don't age past the biological age of 25. I contain nano-bots to enhance my immune system, but this has been quite ordinary for centuries. Every couple of decades I receive special treatment to repair my DNA and organs to the point I am 25 again. I am extremely attractive by conventional standards, my father made me with the characteristic of a Greek god, the beauty standard for millennia, and supposedly related to me in ancestry.

Like any human off spring, I was born in a laboratory. By using my fathers XY chromosomes as the base plan, with further modifications made by him to make me perfect. I have a reasonable amount of fear but lean more towards aggression. My pleasure center is enlarged, meaning I crave entertainment in all forms, constantly, this allows me to grow. I am still capable of sadness an fear, emotions that serve their purpose, but less so than my father. My hippocampus is enlarged, and thus my memory is enhanced.

Homo sapiens is no more. We have evolved beyond that fact, forcefully. Everyone in the population can be divided into one of 3 groups.
