Novel Bin Chapter 347 Memories Pt2
Mark stood in the corner of my kitchen, with short brown hair and glass. He had on a bright orange shirt and jeans, but he looked nervous.
Helsin Zero had black hair and was wearing a suit that more than likely cost more than everything in my apartment. He wasn\'t much older than me, but he gave off the vibe of being older.
"So, your friend here talks highly of you, and so does Mr. Trenton. I would like to offer you a position at my company. We work with games, but that is only a small part of what the company is trying to achieve. I think that your studies are the future of gaming, and maybe the future for all humans," Helsin told me, and the younger me lit up with excitement.
"Really? Do youDo you think that we will be able to achieve an energy state one day? I mean, we should be compatible with the change, but I am not sure how we could obtain it…." The younger me said with a voice trailing off.
"I think with the help of others we collect for your team, anything is possible. Money is no option, only the end results! I want to create a truly interactive game that the player can actually experience. I have looked into many ideas, but we are a long way away from being even close to achieving anything like a true VR experience," Helsin explained, but the younger me didn\'t really seem to understand and wasn\'t confident.
"Are you sure that you are looking for the right guy? I am only sixteen right now! I don\'t even have my license!" I argued, but Helsin just laughed my worries off.
"Don\'t you get tired of the easy work that you are given at school? Don\'t you want to be doing more with your life? I can help you achieve your dreams if you help further mine! This about it, Zack, you would be the first to try our games, and you would move into the building with the others I have collected!" Helsin questioned me, offering me things that I knew my young mind couldn\'t resist.
I was starting to get a picture of Helsin, but he didn\'t seem evil, just driven. I had no idea what was driving him, but that was why I was here.
I needed to know what caused it all.
Suddenly the room with the three of us blurred, and I was walking into a new room. I was in control of my body this time, but memories were flooding into me.
This was my room at the O, Helsin Zero\'s massive research lab. I had just moved in after a large fight with my aunt.
Paula had wanted me to finish school and then go, but I had it in my head that school was just a waste of my talents at this point. Worse was that I was moving out and away from her, but I was old enough to make my own choices at my age.
Paula had to accept my choice, but she didn\'t like it. Now I was getting myself settled in, but all of my stuff had been moved for me, so there wasn\'t much for me to do now.
Knock, Knock
I turned to my open door, and Mark was there with a grin. I still didn\'t know how Mark fit into all this or how he had betrayed me, but this was when my body started to take control.
"Hey, thanks for getting me hooked up!" I told Mark, and he shrugged.
"Don\'t worry about it! I was just glad that my dad was able to get through to Mr. Zero. I knew that he would be interested in you! Dad is one of the main people that invest in Mr. Zero, and you\'re my best friend, so it was the least I could do," Mark told me as he walked into my room, looking around.
"Still, I am very excited to meet these others," I said, but then there was another voice at the door.
"Don\'t get too excited. Most of the people here don\'t have the time they want to waste," a girl with blue hair said to me with a glare from my doorway.
Nushi? The face was right, but there were no horns or blue skin, and her hair was clearly dyed.
"Zack, this is Suzzy, and she is a bit of a pain, but she is very good at character Mapping. She does all the base coding for the players in the game, but your line of work might replace hers," Mark explained, but that just pissed Suzzy off more.
"This pathetic excuse of a human is going to replace me? Ha! I think not! Don\'t get in my way, you hear me?!" Suzzy declared but left before I could say anything.
Well, that was not what I expected, and I looked down at my body. I was not really much to look at, but I could see why Suzzy might hold some resentment toward me.
If I could make the Energon Pulse work, then we would be able to be transported into the games and design them how we wanted. This included our own bodies, but it was all just circumstantial.
I had yet to even discover how I was to create this pulse, but that was why I was here. Helsin told me that I would have access to whatever I needed, and there would be others to help me.
I had to assume that Suzzy wasn\'t going to be one of them, but there might be a way to include her. The human mind was limited to what It had seen or heard, so having more options that were at your own disposal wasn\'t a bad thing.
"Yeah, you are going to get that a lot. Most people think that with you coming here, their work is going to be all for nothing, and I don\'t disagree, but this is the future. I can\'t even really do anything, but Helsin said I can stay here to help you out with whatever I can, even if it\'s just being a friend," Mark told me, and I felt sick from it.
