I stared blankly at the screen readout. Sweat running down my neck, not sure what to do. Something like this has never happened before, or so I am lead to believe.
Was someone trying to breach the system? Or was it something within the system itself? I have no idea, I only started working here. Few days ago.
The man pressed down on some kind of button on the desk and speaks aloud.
“uh, hello? This is Jerome from sector 67. I am getting some really strange read outs and may require some assistance” Jerome waited with baited breath for a response. Just great, wonderful even. His first day on system watch and he is already calling for help.
A Voice filed the room, clearly in response to his message.
“Jerome, sector 67, employment number 334A-S9. Please confirm with your registered numeric value to confirm identity”
Jerome went wide eyed. What is going on here? Something must be seriously wrong for this level of security.
“0878489778-V” he stated as clearly as he could.
“Numric value matched, voice imprint matched” there was a following silence for a handful of seconds before the voice came again “Jerome, I am sure you are aware that there is a serious situation going on right now. Obviously you are still relatively new to this sector, so I understand you may not grasp the seriousness of the current events” the voice paused with an audible sigh it continued “there is a breach within the system, something or someone is accessing dimension controls-“ the voice was interrupted by Jerome

“Ah, yes, that is what I wanted to inquire about. This Detra Manton? Are they bad news?”
Silence followed for a little over a minute before the voice came back far more panicked.
“C-can you please confirm, by what name was the breach detected under” the voice was shaking but trying to remain professional.
“Ah yes, of course. The detection indicates one called Detra Manton” Jerome stated calmly trying to keep his own fear in check, which was far easier said than done. If these people are scared it must be really bad.
Instead of the voice returning over the private channel a loud siren began blasting through the facility. Lights shut off and all doors sealed. Then a voice could be heard facility wide.
“This is Lebec, As you are obviously aware the facility has entered lockdown mode. You will notice all terminals are erasing themselves. It is recommended not to stand to close to said machines as they will also erase themselves in a physical Sense once the software side is completed” the voice stopped and breathed slowly before continuing.
“Now I must deliver the news many of you are dreading, and some have no idea what is happening at all. Unfortunately, we have a breach within the dimensional system. Meaning that someone very dangerous is trying to breach the dimensional system overlay. Naturally we can not allow that to happen. As many are aware we have back up facilities and this is but on of those locations” Lebec stopped once more and exhaled a sorrowful breath.
“I want to thank you all for your service to the system. Your loved one will be taken care of. Unfortunately this facility must also be erased…. Immediately. You have our sympathies. It will be quick. You will not feel anything.”
The voice abruptly was cut off as the air felt heavier. Not metaphorically either. It grew very dense very quickly.
Jerome Pulled out his atmospheric environmental tool and starred at the readout. Just as he feared, the facility was been pumped full of a bio weapon that once activated it will disintegrate everything. That includes people as we can easily breath it just like oxygen. So we will vanish from the inside out.
Jerome looked at his terminal one last time, a single tear running down his cheek.
His eyes widened. His system had stopped erasing and instead a message was on the center of the screen.
Do you still want to live(Y/N)?
Jerome sat down at the terminal and wiped his cheeks. With determination he hit the key
Y
If there was some way to survive this he would do whatever he could to get out alive.
Do you wish to fight the system(Y/N)?
He wasn’t sure what to make of this message but he didn’t care he just wanted to get out of here.
Y
Jerome yelled at the terminal screen “If you are gonna help me, do it fast we have only minutes before I will die, we all will!”
New text popped up on the screen.
You misunderstood…..You will be reincarnated, your current situation is regretfully unavoidable.
“What the-“ Jerome was cut short as everything went white and he ceased to exist.
"Breath now"
Jerome eyes shoot open gasping for air. Looking around frantically as he patted down his body. The residual lingering feeling off his body melting into the void. He took a few deep breaths and looked around more slowly.
He was sitting in wait appeared to be a large meadow with trees around the large clearing. He could hear bird, feel the breeze on his face and in his hair, he could even smell the grass and dirt be rested a top of.
“Where the fuck am I?”
