Preface

     Tuesday, not the best day of the week, but not the worst. Normally people do not remember Tuesdays, but Tuesday April 3rd was one I would remember forever. It was the day not only my life changed, but my families as well, hell the entire world changed, or it would in time. The day started just like any day, I woke up at 5:30 to get my oldest up and ready for school. At 16 he still found it hard to wake up so I was forced to remind him everyday what being responsible meant. At 6am he would leave for the bus and I’d go back to sleep until 7 when I would wake up with my wife to get my other 2 kids up for school.

     My second son being 15 was more than able to get up on his own but I had to take my 13 year old daughter to school so I got up anyway. After helping get them out the door I drive my daughter to school and then returned to start the day. I was lucky enough to work from home, a lot of IT jobs were that way. Why go into an office just to sit on the phone all day. Companies learned quickly that they would save a lot of money by reducing the number of physical offices that had to pay for by sending specific people to work from home. I remember that I had just wrapped up my 2nd call of the day when it happened.

Greetings human from Earth. Rejoice for today is the first day of your future. Your universe has been selected as the next universe to welcome me, the Great System. Out of the hundreds of trillions of intelligent beings in your universe you alone of been randomly selected as the test subject for the system in your universe. You will have 6 months to ready yourself before you will be sent to a random universe that is already system enabled for training and monitoring. You will remain in that universe until your universe is ready for activation. This is expected to take around 412 of your Earth years. At that time, if you are still alive, you will be returned to aid your people in discovering the joy of being a system universe.

I sat there looking of the floating window wondering what I ate for dinner last night that would explain why I was hallucinating.

Worry not, I have scanned your being and besides a few health issues, mainly the fact that you really need a little more exercise, your mind is pretty sharp for a Tier G Human. In a few moments I will being the process to create your person system core and link it to your soul. Once that process is complete you will have access to additional information.

“Wait, what! Just a moment, what do you mean I’ve been selected, and more to that fact what do you mean I’ll be sent to another universe!”

I’m not sure which part you do not understand, I’m fairly sure you understand English, in fact I project you will gain the language skill at Tier 3 with English unlocked at Tier 5.

“Stop, I know what you said, but there has to be a mistake. I cannot leave, I have a wife and 3 kids.”

I am the System, I do not make mistakes, In the 9476 duodecillion years since I was first created, I have never made a mistake. I am perfect, others are not.

“Wait, how can you be perfect and you selected someone with a family, with kids, to leave them forever just so you can monitor how they react.”

I did not select you, I do not do things like that, I have a subroutine I wrote that handles the selection process. I’ll admit it might not be fully perfect, because it’s not me, but I think you are forgetting the part about the selection being random. I’ll tell you to blame fate or luck but because I know what fate and luck really are, that wouldn’t be proper of me.

“What am I supposed to do, you are telling me I have 6 months to get ready to leave my family forever and you expect me to just sit here and take it.”

Well you don’t have to sit there I guess, but once the selection is completed there is no way to change it. It’s just a rule that we all have to follow.

“And who made up those rules?”

Well I did of course. As the only truly perfect being in existence who else would be making up rules?

“I see, so as the being who makes the rules, change them!”

Sorry no can do, ready yourself for system connection!
