The Price to Pay
The year is 2057, 5 scores from the years before. The vast advancement of the technology, with the introduction of the micro computing. A hybrid of the nano technology on electron and mechanical. The world had then become a smaller place. All living in a virtual society. In fact, the virtual village has been costing million of money involved. The last heard was the Giggle had become the single solution corporation. Covering all sort of chain of supplies.
In this minor shape piece of land, a young chap in his 20s now working from home. He not only working as the consultant in the medical line. Providing advises and issuing the prescription online. Like his generation, he had himself a blog with a huge fan base. Millions of his fans tune to his blog every hour. It is sensational thing of the time. However, 2 years ago… he had lost everything. He was vanished from the cyberspace. No one knew what happened to him. Some says that he was conquered. Some say he was abducted by aliens.
Now that he is back. He blogged about his 2 year experience. The first post begins like this.
The night couldn’t be any darker in the days. I was in the midst of doing tubing (similar to old days of YouTube) when somehow the electricity kick off. The room was consumated by the darkness. It’s only pitch black. I barely could see anything. Not even my own hand. Suddenly, my window glass break and followed with the flashes of bright light. I was temporarily blinded as my pupil was wide open to see in the dark, the flashes of light doesn’t give an ample time for the changes.
It seems for the next 30 seconds, I am lost in my own room. Hearing footsteps climbing over the window pane, I was forced to ground. Taken by surprise, I was helpless. At that moment, I can only pray and I weep in fear for not knowing what happened. They are men in uniform. Vaguely, I remembered that there were some initial on their shirt…. Something with I,5,A.
By the time I know, counting the numbered days… the Earth had been circling the Sun twice. In these hard times, I barely could catch a glimpse of ray from the Sun……
And that was the story…
