- So here are the two geniuses who made the selection progress
- Very good models, which should be improved, whispered the old man.
It was above the exhibition hall where Ela and Chetan were, they were in a sort of "fitness", enclosed in long transparent tubes, each one was connected to different machines which displayed their statue.
Surrounded by a green liquid, they were in a sort of "wakeful" state, finally releasing the full function of their CHIP.
- Well this one is perfect but why the other one, the girl THERE, breathed alpha 1
- Let's just say it would be very bad form to promote just one, we have to motivate the troops, whispered the old man.
- Well, if it's still the case, can I go for a walk?
- I didn't bring you all this way to take you for a ride, the old man whispered, overwhelmed by the childish behavior of the emotional "alpha 1."
- Don't worry, we have plenty of time for the evaluation, I came to accompany it, it's already classified in advance ~
- Don't provoke her, the old man murmured, staring at her sternly.
- Who? Me? No no no, you don't know me very well, it's rather her who's looking for me, she breathed before moving away, still smiling, and leaving the room.
I was there, still half crouching, this world really wasn't made for me, I just wanted to get out of it now how am I going to get out of it, I would like to get there as easily as the others, how are we different, I want to cry.
I crouch in place, head between my thighs, staring at the ground as if it were the solution-
- Hello ~
- HA!, jumping, and crashing on his buttocks
- Sorry~, whispered this stranger
- You!, I whispered, my eyes wide open.
- Me? ~, why are you always on the floor?, she whispered, staring at me the same way
- Nothing, nothing, nothing at all, I repeat as I get up, walking backwards step by step to escape.
- But wait, why are you running away from me~
- I'm late, I'm going, sorry, I'll leave you, slipping away as quickly as possible
I rushed back to my compartment, she's creepy, I feel like she sees right through me
- What's going on here, I said aloud, as if someone owed me something.
staring at this gathering that was taking place without me
- Shit, I almost forgot about it, he huffed angrily, staring at me with his angry gaze.
- As I said, this is the last one, no more mistakes, we will show them that their status does not make them stronger than us, shouted Asmara, without interrupting her speech of encouragement,
- It's gone, he breathed in disgust.
- We're going to break everything, added Fear.
- We are not the best, affirmed sadness.
He all stood up and left the compartment.
At that moment I felt so alone and useless, they don't need me, neither do I, despite my status I was and never would be anything more than just the guy from the "pit"
Fuck
They at least bothered to push me out of the way, that was already something, at least I'm not invisible.
Only 2 hours left before training resumes, I don't have to follow them or even watch them, it's not like I'm the boss
I continued on my way and collapsed on the bed, but as expected, nothing was there to make my life easier.
All the neon lights started flashing, creating a real party inside the compartment, and only this message forced me to get out of bed.
[GATHERING IN THE SECONDARY HALL]
- Ha, great, I don't even have time to be sad, not even a second to myself here, where is my dream life in the dome
I swallow my saliva and get out of bed, for a new adventure, find the "secondary hall", courage
Fortunately or unfortunately, for once, since I arrived here, I have been able to find my way, finding myself in the crowd of candidates for a dream life.
On the stage in front of us, the old man and her? Who is this woman, is she following me everywhere?
- You, follow me, Asmara whispered, pulling me roughly out of the room.
- Easy, I won't escape, I whispered.
- Dispatch
- It's good
