‘Wait what?’
Entity: "SOUL" found.
Digitizing...
please hold.
'‘Digitizing', what the..?!!!?!!?’
Suddenly an enormous pain traveled through my entire existence, causing me massive amounts of pain, of a kind which I had never felt before. It felt as though my being was being shredded into trillions of bits, and then recombined. These recombined bits felt the same as the old, except, more solid, firm, fettered.
It lost some of the “ethereal” feeling it had before, and gained mass, existence. I had long since lost my senses, incapable of perceiving sight, smell, taste, hearing and touch. It felt as though i was lost in an endless void, merely floating along while suffering my pains.
As i felt the last bits of my original being having been “converted” did all the pain subside, though my mind was still exceptionally weary and exhausted. I then noticed something while slowly recovering from the “conversion”.
I was being moved
No, I don’t mean moving as in physically, I mean as though my mind was wandering off to somewhere else. OH, oh as though you are sitting perfectly still, but you are still moving out of the room, as though someone is gently sliding you out the room on a wheeled chair.
Yes, that makes perfect sense………..
‘WHY AM I EVEN THINKING ABOUT THIS!??!?!?!?!?!?’
Again, calm, peace, cute kittens (oh wait, they’re all dead, shite).
While trying to calm myself from the highly odd series of occurrences, everything changed. I stopped feeling as though i was being moved. In addition, it felt as though something had happened to my mind. It is hard to explain, but felt, enlarged. As though i suddenly “knew” a lot more, without actually learning or knowing it.
Trippy….
As i was concentrating on deciphering the meaning behind this odd feeling, the void i was in stopped being so void-y. As if some divine being said “let there be light” i was suddenly capable of seeing and hearing once again. My emotions were complicated to say the least. One hand, i was euphoric over not being subjected to sensory deprivation anymore, but on the other hand, the first thing i saw was a close-up of the elderly slug's ugly mug.
Oh well, every coin has two sides. Didn’t expect it to be this ugly though. For some reason, my vision has improved immensely, to the point where i can see even the tiny “pores” on his skin. Oddly, i now knew that these pores were where the protective film covering the slugs leaked from, as well as what the film was protecting them from.
Ok, wtf?
I’m fairly certain that such knowledge fall a fair bit outside what a person who hasn’t even graduated middle school should know.
Before even granting me a chance to complete my current contemplations, the Alien apparently felt like dropping another bombshell on my poor head:
“Ahem, ahem, canst thou understand me? Slave, you will respond”
Okay… so i can understand the gurgling and squealing now, great. Also, “slave”? i knew that i was likely to become a slave, but still, being told that straight to your face is rather stiffling.
Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.
It said i need to respond, but how. i don’t think i have a mouth anymore. So how should i exactly respond to this guy?
“Slave, i command you to respond NOW” The alien seemed rather put off by my lack of response and instantly turned hostile. He seemed both angry and distressed, as if he might have screwed up something importa-…?!?
It hurts?! Moreover, the pain gets worse as time goes on, what is going on?!?!
Wait, he commanded me, didn’t he? so by not answering immediately, am I being punished?? THE F*CK!?!?
Okay, okay, the pain is getting rather bad, lets just try talking. “Ehm, hello, I am awake and aware” Wow, it actually worked. Though, while the Aliens apparently brightened up, they also seemed rather displeased. Geez, settle on one emotion would you.
“You imbecilic mongrel, cease speaking in that barbaric native tongue of yours. Change your language module to Kretin” Okay, so how the tick do you do that?
Oh… i can.. feel? feel as though i can change myself, eh, it feels as if I am controlling a… computer!?
As i think that, the world suddenly shifts, changing from the original floaty, and odd situation where i could feel the option to change myself, to suddenly view everything as screens.
That did not sound easy to understand. Before, i saw everything in much the same way a normal being might see it. Now though, it is like constantly looking at a computer screen. Many different small tabs constantly measuring different things, a scanner telling me that there are many different lifeforms within a small area of myself, as well as data on what and who those lifeforms are. I just have to think about a query, and screens detailing all the information about the query will appear.
The pain is getting worse, and though i should be worried about this change, i need to get the pain to stop first.
As the slug said, I need to “change” my language from English to Kretin (hang on, Kretin, Cretin, pfffft) As I think that, the screens change and i am presented with a new screen saying “kontrol panel”. Concentrating on that screen opens it further and gives me the language option.
Here, I am presented with a plethora of options, but just by thinking (more like screaming in my mind), i am able to immediately change to Kretin. I pull away from that screen and focus back on the screen with the slug. Doing so also minimized every other screen.
Neat.
“Is this better, or..?” I ask with a bit of trepidation, just before my mind blanks. What the beat did i just do?!? I must be going insane, there is no way that any of this can be real. I mean, how the hell could someone just change their language, right? It can’t be, right? All these screens, hell, even the aliens must be fake, RIGHT?!?!
Sadly, i was not given chance to escape the current reality of Earth being gone, and these aliens being very much real. “Ah, finally, no longer do I have to listen to that hodgepodge of a bastard language, good job Slave”
F*ck…
Okay, guess I should have realized it by now, i’m not quite human anymore am I? Oh well, let's try asking, if anything, granted these guys arrogance, it should be rather easy to get something out of them.
“Ehm, excuse me great lord, but i am rather confused, what have you done to me and why?” When dealing with a maniac with megalomania, always bolster their ego, make them feel superior. Eh, i guess. Then again, given that i am under their complete control, i shouldn’t be making demands but act subservient.
Turns out, grovelling was indeed the right choice. “hmph, i guess the genius me, Atko Meill, could deign myself to explain you envious situation.” he said with an evil smirk. “Thanks to my great genius , you are the first subject in over 10000 years to be able to undergo the process of becoming a servant A.I. to the great Kretin empire, you will continue to exist for all eternity, forever serving our great empire as a slave. You will control one of our hitherto inactive space production facilities and produce both equipment for our armies and goods for our people.”
.....
So, they turned me into an A.I., and are going to force me to control one of their space production facilities, which, i guess is something along the lines of a factory in space?
Moreover, they plan on never releasing me…
Why?
“But, if i may, why did you pick me, out of all the billions of humans, why did you pick me?!” i asked.
“hmph, easy, out of all the slaves we have taken thus far, you are the only one with a soul loose enough and a body weak enough to allow us to extract it and take it for ourselves. We have conquered countless worlds and subjected dozens of species, but throughout all of Kretin history, only about 27 individuals have been found with the proper physique, you included” the scientist Kretin concluded with a grin.
So, what i can get from this is: My soul has never been properly attached to my body. This caused my body to not function well enough and thus weaken. The Kretins took advantage of this, abducted me, and turned me into a slave A.I.
Ahahahah, oooohh fuck my life…
