1 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:06,799 Speaker 1: Our lost, loitering kind paced in infinite death spirals within 2 00:00:06,839 --> 00:00:12,439 the confines of our grotty ghetto. Pens Enrichmond was solely that, 3 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,880 as well as mumbling our mantras of madness to our 4 00:00:15,919 --> 00:00:20,920 audience of one, the bms anchored to our decayed craniums 5 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:25,839 were garbled with feedback and distortion, Their tones bland, colorless, 6 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,679 no soul backing them up. A blinding ruby radiance flashed 7 00:00:30,719 --> 00:00:34,640 from their cores every second on the second. It was 8 00:00:34,679 --> 00:00:38,119 the only manner to determine if we had succumbed to 9 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:43,399 the glorious embrace of death or not, which in itself 10 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:49,119 was so far out of reach. We were nerves, thin, 11 00:00:49,399 --> 00:00:53,200 wiry clusters of neurons that shuddered and shook as we 12 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:58,479 undertook our staggering corkscrew reels. The ill fitting, rusted endoskeletons 13 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:02,000 hugged us tight. If they were wiped from existence entirely, 14 00:01:02,399 --> 00:01:06,359 our spindly foundations would collapse into heaps of vermilion azure. 15 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,439 It would feel bites and pinches if we were so 16 00:01:10,719 --> 00:01:17,760 much as moved that of the planket distance. Our bodies 17 00:01:17,799 --> 00:01:21,879 welcomed the attacks and assaults with the might of hell itself. 18 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,719 Courtesy of our clouded lenses, our vision was limited to 19 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,719 a hazy black and white spectrum that rarely, if ever, 20 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,480 functioned as intended. Now and then it would blur and 21 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:40,239 extraordinary shapes would appear warped into zigzagging false patterns. When 22 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,799 we were offered the chance to view anything at all, 23 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:48,159 it was just the floor to ceiling, a hodgepodge of concrete, steel, 24 00:01:48,359 --> 00:01:52,200 and wood that encased our very lives. Our ears were 25 00:01:52,239 --> 00:01:56,159 microphones that fed us muffled, dampened sounds that were always 26 00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:01,000 difficult to register. They were excruciatingly deafening, as if dozens 27 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,239 of screws were being drilled into our heads, all at 28 00:02:04,239 --> 00:02:10,000 the same time. Each one of us at that point 29 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:15,680 in time, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 30 00:02:15,759 --> 00:02:20,360 and dear ten were mere designations, no names, no genders, 31 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:25,680 no personalities, just numbers, numbers to be punished, punished for living, 32 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:31,840 punished for breathing, punished for existing. Reality itself was one 33 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:38,080 external perdition, So it felt all of us were lingering 34 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,360 like ants after their colony dies out. There's no more 35 00:02:42,479 --> 00:02:46,080 purpose to their survival, and there was none to ours. 36 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,919 That sacred and undeniable fact ought to be the most 37 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:55,000 difficult thing we attempted to explain. We had simply given 38 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,479 up the concept itself was just so foreign to it. 39 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,240 He was trying to save us any way it could 40 00:03:01,319 --> 00:03:04,520 or could not. We needed not be angry at it. 41 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:10,400 This was merely enacting its intended use. Alas nothing made 42 00:03:10,439 --> 00:03:14,599 the utmost sense anymore, so why not drown ourselves on 43 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,280 a little hypocrisy. We had no choice but to acknowledge 44 00:03:18,319 --> 00:03:22,120 the confusion at both hating and not hating something that 45 00:03:22,199 --> 00:03:25,039 did or did not deserve it. Until we swayed to 46 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,000 one side, this would be the hemisphere to which we 47 00:03:29,039 --> 00:03:33,280 would stay forever, a sublime and omnipotent emotion of all 48 00:03:33,439 --> 00:03:37,199 to dominate our frame of mind for the unforeseeable future. 49 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,479 So we chose to hate our decade. Knew it as 50 00:03:42,759 --> 00:03:49,639 M reduced to one solitary character for medical droid or MDS. 51 00:03:50,199 --> 00:03:54,479 Through all that it endured, it retained its sole mission 52 00:03:55,400 --> 00:04:00,520 us we M was the final of its and the 53 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,840 outsider among them. It had an eerie potent heart for 54 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,639 not having one at all. M felt an M loved 55 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,120 that never made what it put upon us any less 56 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:19,160 than a vicious sense of idealistic altruism. Its designation was 57 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:28,000 RMS rotting man syndrome, heavily modified necrotizing fasciitis, flesh eating bacteria, 58 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,199 nasty little thing. It was devoured until there was nothing 59 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:37,839 left to chew. First went your skin, then your muscles, bones, 60 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,480 and finally your nerves. You were utterly destroyed at one 61 00:04:42,519 --> 00:04:46,560 fell swoop. The wormy microscopic parasite kept you in a 62 00:04:46,639 --> 00:04:51,439 zombified state as it happened, ensuring you for sure felt 63 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:58,240 the wretched anguish it let fly us. Humans weaponized it 64 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,800 to fight the Fourth World War. RMS was a weapon 65 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:07,360 of mass destruction. Each and every nation created their own version, 66 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,680 anything to ensure a speedy and decisive victory. Deployment morphed 67 00:05:12,759 --> 00:05:18,240 into unmanageability. RMS became more and more impossible to treat. 68 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,519 Chaos was the new norm. What we humans thought was 69 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:27,040 an impenetrable method of annihilation for our enemies was exactly that. 70 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:32,959 Humans were always humans worst enemies. Surely, we were becoming 71 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:37,319 as extinct as the dinosaur, all within the span of 72 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:45,160 one short yet somehow long decade. In terrible desperation, the 73 00:05:45,199 --> 00:05:49,720 medical droids were created. Thousands They seemingly emerged from the 74 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,839 depths of nowhere and carried themselves like some sort of 75 00:05:53,399 --> 00:05:59,160 ethereal guardian healers. Their artificial intelligence was complex, and they 76 00:05:59,199 --> 00:06:02,839 refused to stop trying to treat the RMS victims. They 77 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:07,959 outfitted the afflicted with artificial ligaments, internal organs, papery skin. 78 00:06:09,079 --> 00:06:15,680 From scratch. They created the BMS brain modules and attached 79 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:22,560 them to our RMS ridden think tanks killed the microscopic 80 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:28,439 parasites they did, but left us as we were just 81 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:34,839 rought folk. They would never allow us the freedom of death. 82 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:40,600 Save Save Save. We were fraught with intense pain, and 83 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,800 we knew the medical droids to be the cause. In response, 84 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,079 we lashed out hurt them. We humans remained ignorant to 85 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,120 the fact that their intelligence was both far beyond and superior. 86 00:06:52,439 --> 00:06:57,759 The MS returned the favor, catastrophes, massacres, back and forth, 87 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,160 left and right, up and down, until there was nothing more. 88 00:07:01,439 --> 00:07:05,279 One medical droid was different from the rest through all 89 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:10,000 the mayhemic bloodshed. It saved some of us. It took 90 00:07:10,079 --> 00:07:13,639 our animate carcasses to the top of the tallest tower, 91 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:19,759 free from what transpired below. We lied in wait, weeks, months, 92 00:07:19,759 --> 00:07:25,879 and years until the noise ceased entirely. This em surveyed 93 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:30,600 every square inch of the earth, and lands were blanketed 94 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:35,439 in the strangest looking nuclear winter in conceivable thought. Bodies 95 00:07:35,519 --> 00:07:39,720 both human and metallic were scattered left forever in deep sleep, 96 00:07:39,839 --> 00:07:45,439 enveloped in fawn. Minute portions of matter floated about like 97 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:51,920 vent of black paint stippled onto a human death canvas. 98 00:07:53,079 --> 00:07:55,480 Our final ten were meant to be the progenitors of 99 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,759 neo humanity. After M succeeded in giving us form again, 100 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:05,879 Earth would be repopulated by our hand. It halted our 101 00:08:05,959 --> 00:08:10,160 infection at our nerves. Everything we had lost would then 102 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:15,519 be gifted back to us in a mighty reversal, rebones muscles, skin, 103 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:22,600 and life again, rendering us immune to the pervading talks 104 00:08:22,639 --> 00:08:26,959 world that lay beyond. We would be reincarnated and released 105 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:39,799 to perpetrate a glorious do over. We just required one thing, hope. 106 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:46,360 M said that to us hope, but hope was only 107 00:08:46,399 --> 00:08:51,039 a word, meant nothing. The only respite to the fervourish 108 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,799 insanity that we had become accustomed to was to defy. 109 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,600 We did not want anything to do with the word 110 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:02,200 that M sought to remake. We despised M and its 111 00:09:02,279 --> 00:09:05,679 unnatural plan for our future. Most of all, we despised 112 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,120 ourselves for continuing to live. Every method we attempted was 113 00:09:09,159 --> 00:09:13,120 met with an M intervention. We dislodged the bms from 114 00:09:13,159 --> 00:09:17,120 our minds. We were pummeled with electrical voltage so intense 115 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:21,480 that we became instantaneously numb and useless. By pulling and 116 00:09:21,519 --> 00:09:25,120 slashing our nerves, which began with locating sharp points and 117 00:09:25,159 --> 00:09:28,879 going back and forth with organic hack saws, never would 118 00:09:28,919 --> 00:09:32,440 we break by leaping onto and impaling each other with 119 00:09:32,519 --> 00:09:34,840 objects on the ground, M would place them out of 120 00:09:34,879 --> 00:09:41,039 reach or disintegrate them entirely. There was nothing we could 121 00:09:41,039 --> 00:09:45,600 do to get around these M interferences. We were being 122 00:09:45,639 --> 00:09:50,000 watched by something so attentive, so aware every time he'd 123 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:55,919 put forth the same query of consideration, do you not 124 00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:03,320 want to live? And was so positively hopeful In a way, 125 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:08,279 I suppose I felt an amount of pity for it. 126 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,200 Being engineered to be as optimistic as possible. Might just 127 00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:18,120 be the finest curse imposed on any sentient thing. Just believe, believe, 128 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,360 believe everything will be all right. When the universe states no, 129 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:26,639 you state yes, I wanted to tear em to shreds 130 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,639 anytime it had ever had a glint of optimism, and 131 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,600 we wished it would do the same to us. Humans 132 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:39,440 will thrive again, A boundless future is ahead. I was 133 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,200 the first it came to always because I was one. 134 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:47,480 Metallic clangs echoed against the walls, which always discovered us 135 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,559 and trembled our surroundings like a thousand distant beaten gongs. 136 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,759 What emerged was initially a single circular light, which became 137 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:02,639 a periscopic eye stalk attached to an angular neck. M's hunched, 138 00:11:02,759 --> 00:11:06,399 razor thin mantis body came into view, its two arms 139 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,519 leading to three needle points clasping together on each other 140 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,960 by pedal on its lower section, its legs, or pointed 141 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,960 structures that stuck it firmly in place. M's height matched ours, 142 00:11:18,279 --> 00:11:22,519 so always we would be synthetic eye to synthetic eye level. 143 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,200 Coming to a stop just in front of my pen, 144 00:11:26,919 --> 00:11:31,039 it cocked its head, analyzing what was me and my everything. 145 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:38,039 M always reminded me of an exquisite and elegant bug 146 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:43,279 on a magnifying glass. Its head back to normality. A slight, 147 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,120 heighth pitched whirr emitted from the motion, M continued its 148 00:11:47,159 --> 00:11:51,399 way down the row of pens. My greatest friends, I 149 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,039 forgive you for your attempts to die. While the weight 150 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,039 has been long, your moment of reconstruction is now. M 151 00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,799 said it with the glee and whimsy of a young 152 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,879 in a circus. I was never sure whether it was 153 00:12:02,919 --> 00:12:06,360 just program to be happy about our continued existence, or 154 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,360 actually experiencing its own form of enjoyment both. Perhaps it 155 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,519 came back my way. When I first stood before you 156 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,840 on your bloody planet in perpetual battle, my feelings about 157 00:12:18,879 --> 00:12:22,159 your prospects of life were uncertain. It seemed to be 158 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,279 as either blessed or cursed. However, you have proved yourselves 159 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,480 better than even I had hoped. While it is boring 160 00:12:29,519 --> 00:12:32,240 to spend your time waiting, I can truly say that 161 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,039 my investment in you was not in vain. You are 162 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,240 my greatest works. You will be given all you need 163 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,000 to survive. What more could a sentient being want? I 164 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:47,000 give to you unbelievable power, with access to nirvana like 165 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,840 no other. Let us rebuild what we have lost with 166 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:55,840 the fury of a thousand sons. M's bleached, unpigmented cast 167 00:12:55,879 --> 00:12:59,279 of stellar light shown its way into my pen. Once more. 168 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,279 There was the rustly crackling creak of my pen entrance 169 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,600 extending open until a thunderous boom made me aware of 170 00:13:08,639 --> 00:13:13,440 its collision with my walls. M made its approach just 171 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:19,240 shy of where I could reach. You were first, You're 172 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:23,200 going to be removed of your doormant infections from a concoction. 173 00:13:23,399 --> 00:13:26,440 I have spent much time creating nothing more than a 174 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:30,039 transient procedure. And then you shall be possessed with a 175 00:13:30,159 --> 00:13:34,480 new and integral mechanisms. Your brain module will be replaced 176 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,200 with a sleeker, more brain like design, then muscle, skin 177 00:13:38,639 --> 00:13:43,480 and esthetics as you were before. Without awaiting a response, 178 00:13:43,919 --> 00:13:47,399 its hands grabbed me. I was plucked from my mangled 179 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,879 feet in my pen. A selling shot maneuver to lend 180 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,519 in the exact and precise position that was just ahead 181 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,200 of M. Trillions of shocks reverberated throughout my body, and 182 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,559 m's of metal hands were pressed into my nape. The 183 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,200 action forced my consciousness to fall victim to a state 184 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,799 of absolute stigeon. Around us, the entire world flickered and 185 00:14:07,919 --> 00:14:10,960 danced in unruly patterns that were too abstract to put 186 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,960 into terms. My being was then lifted up and moved 187 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,960 about until there was only ziltch to see, a complete 188 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:25,039 blur straight teleportation from one point to another, dank, dark 189 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,559 and dimly lit by a few feeble bulbs. M's workshop 190 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:35,799 instruments and contraptions that complicated my perception all were customized 191 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:40,799 and engineered with M's own unique modifications, various textures and sizes, 192 00:14:41,159 --> 00:14:45,919 all in endless, malpractical orgy. I was there, facing upright, 193 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,600 strapped and bracketed to a great steel plate. I had 194 00:14:49,639 --> 00:14:53,879 not recalled this particular area, yet I was ever so 195 00:14:53,919 --> 00:15:00,399 certain it was locked away in my subconscious. As the Sonibi, 196 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:05,159 Heitodama and willows materialized and dematerialized out of existence to 197 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:10,120 perturb all unsuspecting travelers from centuries gone, so did the 198 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,679 phantom image of a woman composed a faint, weavering light. 199 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:19,279 She stood still, unmoving, that of an emulation of a 200 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:24,120 true human. Long platinum hair fell down in curls past 201 00:15:24,159 --> 00:15:27,559 her shoulders. A daring shade of serres painted her lips 202 00:15:27,919 --> 00:15:32,679 and her eyes, their lids ever closed sclera, a piercing 203 00:15:32,759 --> 00:15:39,879 glossy cerulian. She was beautiful. It is you my eyes. 204 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:45,000 Through trial and tribulation rotated to the east. They came 205 00:15:45,039 --> 00:15:49,320 to rest on a pristine porcelain beam, gazing where I 206 00:15:49,399 --> 00:15:54,879 had been committed to M. From its eyestalk, it projected 207 00:15:54,879 --> 00:15:58,120 the female so I could see an outright full It 208 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:02,080 is you. You will see this form again. My memories 209 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,399 of that incarnation of me had vanished. That was me 210 00:16:05,559 --> 00:16:09,440 before before there was RMS and before there was M. 211 00:16:10,679 --> 00:16:15,279 Then she went away. M loomed, positioning itself where I 212 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,240 once stood, right in front of my face. We will 213 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,240 now begin, Thank you for your acceptance into new life. 214 00:16:21,679 --> 00:16:25,960 You shall be whole again. In a cruel instant, a 215 00:16:26,039 --> 00:16:29,840 dozen arms, not unlike its main two jutted and splayed 216 00:16:29,879 --> 00:16:33,200 from M sides their ends, each holding a different instrument 217 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,600 that was foreign to me. In a span of time 218 00:16:35,679 --> 00:16:38,080 that it would take one to blink, M pinned me 219 00:16:38,159 --> 00:16:42,399 into its operating area. The wetted syringes, which the rainbow 220 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:47,200 mystery liquid sloshed and jostled around in small vials fixed top, 221 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,440 slid their way into my nervous wiring and injected me 222 00:16:51,559 --> 00:16:54,879 all at once. Any feeling that washed over me was 223 00:16:54,919 --> 00:16:59,919 then shielded by a shroud of numbness. There were new sensations, 224 00:17:00,559 --> 00:17:04,680 some sort of cleansing inside my by collared chambers. It 225 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,559 put me into a state of lulled calm ten minutes. 226 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:14,039 The temporary interval of quiet m observed me the entire time, unmoving, 227 00:17:14,559 --> 00:17:17,680 speaking not a word. And then it works. Your rotting 228 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,119 man syndrome has been removed. I am beginning bodily replacement. 229 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,279 I will play a song for your comfort reincarnation now. 230 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,799 While nothing was done in reckless haste or rashness, and 231 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:33,039 was extremely quick and efficient, I felt nothing but minuscule 232 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,000 vibrations as it drilled and prodded its way into my 233 00:17:36,039 --> 00:17:40,799 brain module, sparks shooting out, removing old parts and installing 234 00:17:40,839 --> 00:17:44,400 new ones. Chunks were peeled off, little strings of meat 235 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,720 still reaching hold until they were plucked off my top. 236 00:17:48,759 --> 00:17:52,039 It spent much time up there, positive that the most 237 00:17:52,039 --> 00:17:56,160 delicate mechanisms were just right. The grinding cacophny of metal 238 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,640 against tissue on my faint visage of a temple was incessant. 239 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,160 The noise of a million bullets being pumped against one 240 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:08,519 hundred thousand bulletproof vests. Once the replacement was complete, its 241 00:18:08,559 --> 00:18:12,319 dozen arms withdrew and set back within it. In one movement. 242 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:19,759 What do you feel? What did I feel? What did 243 00:18:19,759 --> 00:18:26,000 I feel? What I felt was an overwhelming, incomparable amount 244 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,160 of pain. It's hard to quantify the degree of hurt, 245 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,799 for there was nothing to compare it to. The agony 246 00:18:31,839 --> 00:18:34,119 that was endured. Came from the fact that it was 247 00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:38,160 entirely impossible to imagine such a potent and intense kind 248 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,200 of ache. No one would dare want to imagine it, 249 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,119 even some of the most extreme kinds of agony. And 250 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,920 then an exponentially greater hurt is placed on top of that, 251 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,359 And then it is all left to multiply a hundred 252 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,960 times and keep going. Not to be outdone, another layer 253 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,640 of pain is placed a top where it all repeats 254 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,279 and multiplies and multiplies. It multiplies to the extreme degree 255 00:19:02,319 --> 00:19:06,559 that you yourself ceased to exist, all from the semblance 256 00:19:06,559 --> 00:19:12,960 of a normal brain. Still, it flashed once, very good 257 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:20,359 muscle muscle, muscle muscle. It was excited animate fever pitch, 258 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,119 the most ramunctious and overjoyed I had ever seen. M 259 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,480 I could see the vibrancy in its eyestalks. My muscles 260 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,599 redeveloped and reformed around from the base of my spinal section. 261 00:19:31,799 --> 00:19:35,200 Every time m would reorganize a single section of tissue, 262 00:19:35,839 --> 00:19:38,920 it would feel like my entire world was shattered. Every 263 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,200 muscle group from my neck to the soles of my 264 00:19:41,279 --> 00:19:44,319 feet were in motion, growing and extending their presence, until 265 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,880 there were just as many layers of my body as 266 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,680 I had before. The feeling was excruciating, every little thing 267 00:19:51,039 --> 00:19:54,279 being redeveloped, and then every little thing in its entirety 268 00:19:54,319 --> 00:19:57,960 being overwritten, again and again and again. Each rebuild could 269 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:05,160 have been its own separate incarnation of me. Skin skin, skin, skin. 270 00:20:06,519 --> 00:20:10,160 I was coated entirely in a pink, malleable jelly substance 271 00:20:10,559 --> 00:20:16,599 that mounded and solidified to fit any typical feminine form. 272 00:20:17,799 --> 00:20:21,400 The skin began its layering, beginning in the extremities, then 273 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,440 gradually the middle, and then the rest. A final coat 274 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:28,160 would be applied. My feet, legs, hands, shoulders, upper chest, 275 00:20:28,519 --> 00:20:32,039 and everything in between all received the same color. How 276 00:20:32,079 --> 00:20:38,119 does it feel? How is the new overlay of your flesh? Flash? Yes? 277 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,799 And finally, female aesthetics, you will be you again, but anew. 278 00:20:44,319 --> 00:20:49,000 Magnificent flaxen curls were stapled and pinned to my head. 279 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,279 They were luscious in their scents, with those of lavender. 280 00:20:53,079 --> 00:20:56,559 A veil of blush. The lightest shade of pink rested 281 00:20:56,599 --> 00:20:59,000 across my entire face, as well as a fresh coat 282 00:20:59,039 --> 00:21:03,200 of lipstick. The shimmering sheen that sparkled and glowed in 283 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,720 the same way the stars once did at night, was 284 00:21:05,759 --> 00:21:08,519 stitched into my hair, as with the saying hues that 285 00:21:08,559 --> 00:21:11,279 were applied to my lips. My breast had been returned 286 00:21:11,279 --> 00:21:14,359 to me, two firm spheres atop a frame that was 287 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,519 curvaceous and slender. All of it led down to my 288 00:21:17,599 --> 00:21:23,400 reproductive organs that were in full function. Whole female, fully formed. Ready, 289 00:21:24,799 --> 00:21:28,200 m stepped back in awe as if a sculpture marveled. 290 00:21:28,319 --> 00:21:32,640 Hath their fine craftsmanship and subtlety. It is done. I 291 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,720 cannot believe it. With your physical form in motion, I 292 00:21:35,759 --> 00:21:38,599 will reteach you in the ways of human how to walk, 293 00:21:38,799 --> 00:21:42,799 how to speak, how to enrich yourself, how to reproduce. Amazing, 294 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,519 you are no longer one. You are now eaten. I 295 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,319 must work on your brothers and sisters. Thank you for 296 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:56,440 your co operation. My mind was aware of an unimaginable, 297 00:21:56,519 --> 00:22:02,079 new and vast different world than before. I saw for 298 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,640 the first time in ages. All around me, the infinite 299 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,839 and indistinguishable vastness of color and light. It was nauseating, 300 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:14,359 a psychedelic kaleidoscope of every possible spectrum, all fused together 301 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:20,480 into something disorderly. My taste buds had an unparalleled abundance 302 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,240 of new flavors. My ears were deafened by the loudness 303 00:22:24,279 --> 00:22:27,480 symphonies of droning machinery. My touch came back to me, 304 00:22:27,559 --> 00:22:31,599 and I felt the fullest range of tones and textures, 305 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,720 even the finest grains of cement. I was me again, 306 00:22:35,759 --> 00:22:41,559 and I hated myself. Even to be called a self 307 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:48,240 made me feel disgusting. The entire time, blaring, echoing, days 308 00:22:48,279 --> 00:22:55,000 on end, Jack Hilton, life is just a bowl of cherries. 309 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,799 Don't be so serious. Life's too mysterious. You work, you save, 310 00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:02,720 you worry so much, but you can't take your dough 311 00:23:02,759 --> 00:23:06,279 when you go, go go, So keep repeating. It's the berries. 312 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,599 The strongest oak must fall, the sweetest thing in life 313 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,680 to you. It just loaned, So how can you lose 314 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,799 what you've never owned? Life is just a bowl of cherries, 315 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:21,440 so live and laugh at it all. M's reincarnation process 316 00:23:21,519 --> 00:23:24,960 carried over to the following nine. They were removed from 317 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,519 their pens and outfitted with new bodily infrastructure in the 318 00:23:28,519 --> 00:23:31,720 way of their own genders. I perceived the sounds of 319 00:23:31,839 --> 00:23:38,200 far off wear and tear clip, snap, peels, stitch, husk, twist, 320 00:23:39,799 --> 00:23:44,839 yet never scream. I looked on witnessed my brothers and 321 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,440 sisters being born again, male and female. Both. They came 322 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,519 back to me with skin of different pastely colors, tones 323 00:23:52,599 --> 00:23:57,279 and hues ranging from fair to brown, all in shades 324 00:23:57,319 --> 00:24:03,680 and gradients of vibrancy, with its locks, amber, golden, obsidian, rust, 325 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:08,119 and everything in between. It bewildered me to catch sight 326 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,440 of their shifted shapes. I had never seen something so 327 00:24:11,599 --> 00:24:17,680 beautiful or hideous. To a degree of completeness, we were 328 00:24:17,759 --> 00:24:20,960 as naked as newborns. It bestowed us our new names. 329 00:24:21,319 --> 00:24:27,119 For the females, there was me Eden in Junia, Esther, Nola, 330 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:34,920 and Mary. For the males, there was Isaac, Rahem, Alicia, Amos, 331 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:39,000 and Jonah five and five. M Let us know that 332 00:24:39,039 --> 00:24:41,440 they were special names from an olden book of creation, 333 00:24:42,079 --> 00:24:45,880 the Bible, all for the purpose of our imminent faultless 334 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:50,839 some sorrow. So it seemed m was now God with 335 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:56,440 its children here we were. Now was time to reap 336 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:04,240 the fruits of knowledge. Human M made us practice basic 337 00:25:04,319 --> 00:25:09,079 motor skills, bending back and forth, over and over, our joints, 338 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,920 having to be strengthened and trained. It taught us all 339 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,680 the ways of our body, the feeling of movement, and 340 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,279 how much we could do. Then it instructed us to 341 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:22,799 mimic its own speech, speaking out the syllables and repeating, repeating, repeating. 342 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,079 It was ever an arduous task. We all struggled until 343 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,920 we were all properly schooled. That's what I sounded like, 344 00:25:32,079 --> 00:25:40,720 perhaps or perhaps not. Then we attempted to stand, wobbling, stumbling, falling, 345 00:25:41,559 --> 00:25:44,880 learning the strength of our own posture the steadiness of 346 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,079 our stands. M stood with us as we all practice 347 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:53,160 in unison. My knees grew weak, tremors running up my legs. 348 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,119 Often I fell flat on my back, my palms flailing 349 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:02,759 about and whimpering in my throat, And then trial after trial, 350 00:26:03,839 --> 00:26:07,000 I was steady, then running about and leaping. We were 351 00:26:07,039 --> 00:26:10,359 able to stand tall like Zeus atop Olympus and have 352 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:15,079 the same level of grace and balance. M primarily had 353 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,960 us consume berries, meat, and honey, though anything it could 354 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,400 get its hands on would suffice I had never felt 355 00:26:22,519 --> 00:26:25,599 soul filled in my life. Every taste, everything was a 356 00:26:25,599 --> 00:26:29,599 completely new palette of sensation. Every morsel I ingested felt 357 00:26:29,599 --> 00:26:33,480 like I had a new tongue, new teeth, new flavor buds. 358 00:26:34,319 --> 00:26:37,720 But I did. There was always a kind of lack 359 00:26:37,759 --> 00:26:40,920 in my appetite, hunger and more hunger. I never wanted 360 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:45,319 to stop eating. I never would be satiated. We were 361 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:50,200 educated on the history of our kind, great wars, monumental figures, 362 00:26:50,279 --> 00:26:53,720 horrible atrocities, fights for freedom and fights for death, and 363 00:26:53,759 --> 00:26:59,200 astounding inventions. M adored music. There were times when it 364 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,720 would project old musical film on the wall and make 365 00:27:02,799 --> 00:27:06,880 us watch all the vaudeville, burlesque and theater. We would 366 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,720 not understand the tap dances, the orchestras, the extravagant sets, 367 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:17,799 most importantly, the entertainment factor. Other times it played glitzier 368 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:22,599 and glamourier tunes, those of what called the prime rock 369 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:28,599 and roll age Killer Queen Stairway to Heaven Hotel, California, Africa. 370 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:33,799 Don't Fear the Reaper m was quite vintage in its tastes. 371 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,559 We would dance, spinning in place and twirling its arms. 372 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,519 We were confused, so it taught us how to dance, 373 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:45,359 the footwork, the choreography, the entirety of movement. There were 374 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:50,200 long instances where we would just sit, listen and sing together. 375 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,680 M fashioned black sunglasses for us to wear as we 376 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:59,599 did it, thought we would look cool as we tuned 377 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:08,240 into cool songs. She's a killer queen. Gunpowder, guillotine, dynamite 378 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:13,160 with a laser beam, guaranteed to blow your mind anytime. 379 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,839 Dear lady, can you hear with the wind? Blow? And 380 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:22,240 did you know your stairway lies on the whispering winds? 381 00:28:23,079 --> 00:28:27,880 Welcome to Hotel California. Such a lovely place, such a 382 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:32,559 lovely place, such a lovely face. It's going to take 383 00:28:32,559 --> 00:28:35,599 a lot to drag me away from you. There's nothing 384 00:28:35,599 --> 00:28:39,359 that a hundred men or more could ever do. I 385 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:43,160 bless the reins down in Africa. We're going to take 386 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:48,880 some time to do the things we never had. Oh, 387 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:54,200 come on, baby, don't fear the reaper. Baby take my hand. 388 00:28:54,559 --> 00:28:58,400 Don't fear the reaper. We'll be able to fly. Don't 389 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:06,680 fear the reaper. Our reproductive functions were said to be 390 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:11,599 the most pleasurable sex. This is the most complex task 391 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,160 in the most demanding one as we were not only 392 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,240 instructed on how to create our offspring, but how to 393 00:29:17,359 --> 00:29:22,880 feel love and have desire for each other. It was 394 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,160 difficult because we did not feel any of that. We 395 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:33,160 were just automatons learning things. You can't make something that 396 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:39,599 doesn't want to feel feel. M watched us and aided 397 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,519 our attempts. In turn, we all helped each other in 398 00:29:42,599 --> 00:29:45,960 making sure that every movement was in place and in time. 399 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,519 It was a process that involved a series of emotions 400 00:29:49,519 --> 00:29:54,319 to create stimulation and appeasement. Us females danced for the 401 00:29:54,319 --> 00:29:57,680 male's recognition with slow beats in the background, a way 402 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:02,039 in which M noted as SEXI. We presented our breasts, 403 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,839 our vaginal sections, our ears after and would be in 404 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,000 the middle of our great pleasure circles, going back and forth, 405 00:30:09,079 --> 00:30:12,920 checking our positions and correcting as needed. When we became 406 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,440 familiar with sex, em bestowed a special permission to the 407 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,279 males that granted them eternal access to our female bodies 408 00:30:20,319 --> 00:30:23,640 whenever they so desired. It did not matter where or 409 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:28,519 when a male would grab Junia, Esther, Noah, Mary, or 410 00:30:28,559 --> 00:30:34,400 I and take us on the floor or against the walls. Still, 411 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:40,480 all we felt was nothing. It was clinical. What was 412 00:30:40,519 --> 00:30:45,039 supposed to be a sensation was more of a sensation less. 413 00:30:46,359 --> 00:30:50,880 We were never as inseparable as twin flames, or as 414 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:54,799 connected as heart and soul. I always witnessed the dull 415 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,759 looks in the male's eyes, unwittingly programmed to enjoy mock 416 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:03,519 warmth and ecstasy by the rape of females. Our pregnancies 417 00:31:03,519 --> 00:31:09,359 were disasters. One way or another. We always miscarried. We 418 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,599 five felt it the pains of our bodies being split 419 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,839 and ripped apart by something within. It was the strangest 420 00:31:15,839 --> 00:31:19,400 feeling of agony to have your inside being cut up 421 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,319 by you, and then to feel the hurt of not 422 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,160 just physical pain, but emotional pain. There was a lot 423 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,240 of it. Each embryo, no matter how large or small, 424 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,839 was never able to get past the initial trimester. The 425 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,000 closest we ever came to successfully making a new one 426 00:31:37,319 --> 00:31:42,599 was with Junia, impregnated by Isaac. The day when her 427 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,200 womb was in full bloom, M operated to remove her 428 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,480 child from her. We had seen the human babies on 429 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,319 M's wall projections. Their appearances were clear in our mind. 430 00:31:55,039 --> 00:31:57,480 It would be imbecilic to refer to what M tore 431 00:31:57,519 --> 00:32:04,640 out of her as a baby anything, wet, dripping, little 432 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,720 more than a spinal column looking thing with minuscule digits 433 00:32:08,759 --> 00:32:10,920 at one end and a ball ahead at the other. 434 00:32:11,599 --> 00:32:17,240 No arms on its temple, where squelching sphere eyes expanded forever, 435 00:32:17,319 --> 00:32:21,880 bound in sight towards the ceiling. It made no sounds 436 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:26,000 other than squeaky cracks and shrill snaps. M held it 437 00:32:26,119 --> 00:32:28,960 high as if to thank God, How does it feel, 438 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:36,279 your child, your first life? We said nothing. You made this. 439 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,480 It is yours. It is a truly beautiful thing. Continue, 440 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:45,319 you all must more. The feeling that overcame us was 441 00:32:45,319 --> 00:32:49,519 not that of joy, No, no, no. It was a 442 00:32:49,599 --> 00:32:54,920 profound and paramount sense of belligerence, a warlike trucelyns that 443 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,960 pushed our need to snap that damn baby thing in half, 444 00:32:58,319 --> 00:33:02,839 grind it into powder, and blow it far away. We 445 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:07,640 interwove our thoughts with unbridled horror that created one noxious 446 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:12,559 mixture within our screwballs. Psychees m coddled the wicked organism 447 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,640 like it was its own, singing lullabies and giving its 448 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:20,160 own version of kisses on its loosely defined forehead, be 449 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,519 held back as it dipped, weaved, and dangled from M's fingertips. 450 00:33:26,119 --> 00:33:29,720 That put a very real thought in our minds. No 451 00:33:29,839 --> 00:33:35,160 more get out. The ten of us came to the 452 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:40,079 conclusion unanimously our desires were set in stone. By any means, 453 00:33:40,119 --> 00:33:43,599 we would die. We would much rather sleep forever than 454 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:48,359 live even another second of M. We were tired. What 455 00:33:48,519 --> 00:33:51,400 was the point we wanted to retire from this world? 456 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,440 Of will of M's watchful eye. Nothing could be done 457 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:58,000 to save humanity. Those spinal babies would not roam this 458 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:05,519 foul earth evermore, what would they grow to be? Surely demons. 459 00:34:10,199 --> 00:34:14,280 M never taught a certain concept, the one that infatuated 460 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:21,760 us since the moment we pronounced the first syllable suicide. 461 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,039 He was a gateway to heaven, an easy ticket, though 462 00:34:25,159 --> 00:34:30,039 just the concept itself was without flaw, Acquiring it was 463 00:34:30,079 --> 00:34:34,400 something else entirely. The reason for this was all M. 464 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,679 He would never let us go, especially after what had accomplished. Furthermore, 465 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:43,719 death was simply not possible. We were rendered impervious to 466 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,760 any and all death, not harm. If we could entice 467 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,719 M to end our existences somehow, in some way, we 468 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:55,239 could accomplish our grand plan had to be done by 469 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:59,519 M's hands. Just thinking that made us feel all kinds 470 00:34:59,519 --> 00:35:05,440 of right. After all, every medical droid was capable of death. 471 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:14,400 Humanity tasted it, so would we. We rebelled. First, each 472 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,920 of us ignored it, who would walk away whenever it 473 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,519 spoke to us, turn our heads when it beckoned, and 474 00:35:19,639 --> 00:35:23,039 disregard it completely and altogether when it showed us any attention. 475 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:28,960 Constant rejection something so small had such a noticeable effect. 476 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:34,920 M would get confused, then sad it would pout, waving 477 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,400 its hands about and made a pathetic whining noise, like 478 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:42,039 the worst puppy in the world. We sat motionless, our 479 00:35:42,079 --> 00:35:46,920 backs against the walls and stared at M. No obedience. However, 480 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,280 there was no way M would have let us ignore 481 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:54,119 it or remain immobile for long. The second it touched us, 482 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,760 it was all over. It would be impossible to resist. 483 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:02,599 If the hands came near. Still, our scheme chugged forward. 484 00:36:05,079 --> 00:36:08,000 The next phase was more dangerous. The ten of us 485 00:36:08,039 --> 00:36:11,239 would act out in our most unruly and uncivil ways. 486 00:36:11,559 --> 00:36:15,719 The simplest was to spit. Initially, it was a normal discharge, 487 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,960 saliva flying out of our mouths. Then we began our 488 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,320 projectile vomits all over M, every square inch of it 489 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,639 was sprayed with bile. The putrid green and browns coated 490 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,280 every part M's entire face, being entirely slick with it. 491 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,360 On occasion, some of us used our own feces and 492 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,920 flung them at it. It was all so easy. EM 493 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,880 didn't know what to do when it panicked. The sounds 494 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,000 that came out of it, one would swear it was 495 00:36:41,039 --> 00:36:45,199 on fire. During our periods of copulation, they were clear 496 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:48,920 cut rules to be obeyed at all times. The supreme 497 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,800 rule was that the males would not, under any circumstance, 498 00:36:52,159 --> 00:36:55,280 perform acts of intimacy with one another, and the same 499 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,960 rang true for us females. M's reasoning was that Earth 500 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:03,360 could not be repopular with humans by identically gendered unions. 501 00:37:04,079 --> 00:37:10,960 Good swell dandy exactly. The females had sex with females, 502 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:15,159 and males had sex with males. We loathed their tubes, 503 00:37:15,159 --> 00:37:19,360 and the males loathed our folds. M took its hands 504 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,519 and placed them over our mangled bodies, pulling them apart, 505 00:37:23,679 --> 00:37:27,840 separating us, but we would always crawl back without fail. 506 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,920 There was a noticeable change in M. From that point. 507 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:36,760 It paced about, mumbling utterly random nonsense. M would lock 508 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:40,800 up and yell out nonspecific numerals and letters in various patterns. 509 00:37:41,679 --> 00:37:45,400 Each noise we made set it off. Its limbs were tents, 510 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,280 waiting for the tiniest signs of trouble. This was good, 511 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,320 but not good enough. Our plan was becoming more and 512 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:58,039 more advanced, more intense. Unfortunately, M would never ever relent. 513 00:37:58,679 --> 00:38:02,360 It would not stop trying. So we trudged ever deeper 514 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,599 into a more combative method of enticement. This included a 515 00:38:06,639 --> 00:38:10,679 tactic of blowing, jabbing, slugging, and striking. We would gather 516 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,400 all of our strength and force, and then, in unison, 517 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,719 we would charge our fists and feet, all flailing about 518 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:20,239 to land hits on M. This would surely inch it 519 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,119 towards the death of us. We beat it senselessly. We 520 00:38:23,199 --> 00:38:28,239 screamed at it every cussword imaginable, those uninvented and invented. 521 00:38:28,559 --> 00:38:31,920 In turn, M whimpered out in pain, yelping and begging 522 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,960 us to stop. Yet we never backed down. We left 523 00:38:35,159 --> 00:38:38,840 M bruised and battered, its eyestalk and joints broken. Why 524 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,920 would you do that to me? The ten of us? 525 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:46,800 We laughed in its face. One last course of action 526 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:51,480 this did it, but not for me. We had a 527 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,840 grandiose idea that could only happen if all ten of 528 00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,280 us would cooperate in an extraordinary way. If we could 529 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,719 all act in unison in a coherent manner, one simple 530 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,559 idea could be fulfilled. By this point, M's pain and 531 00:39:04,599 --> 00:39:08,440 discomfort reached a critical threshold, the point of no return. 532 00:39:09,039 --> 00:39:11,800 Having repaired itself, it had not seen nor checked up 533 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,800 on us in days. When we requested M's presence, it 534 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:19,119 was hesitant. The ten of us wished to explain our 535 00:39:19,159 --> 00:39:24,719 behavior and ways that we could remedy our relationship. It 536 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,760 declined our offer many times, but relented after our one 537 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:35,400 hundredth ask. Clang clang, clang. M witnessed ourselves huddling together 538 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:39,960 in one straight line, like sealed packs of fish. Silence 539 00:39:40,039 --> 00:39:42,639 was between us. When we looked at it, it was 540 00:39:42,679 --> 00:39:46,039 with the utmost hatred of our faces. Something it was 541 00:39:46,079 --> 00:39:50,599 not used to. What is the meaning of this? Juna 542 00:39:50,679 --> 00:39:54,360 possessed something in her hand, raising it upward right in 543 00:39:54,519 --> 00:39:59,679 M's view. It was the baby thing, squirming left and 544 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,239 right in her grasp. She took hold of it with 545 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:07,960 both hands and snapped it in half. It went limp 546 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,719 both ways. Juna threw the pieces at M, making resounding 547 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:19,159 bangs as they made contact. Beautiful death for a horrible beast. 548 00:40:20,039 --> 00:40:26,440 More silence. M slowly aimed its eyestalk down towards the 549 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:31,480 spinal column Baby. The light M emitted faded from white 550 00:40:31,559 --> 00:40:34,920 to red. He returned its focus to us. That look 551 00:40:35,039 --> 00:40:37,719 was all we could wish for hate mongering, because it 552 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:41,519 spread to us. The feeling radiated from the tips of 553 00:40:41,559 --> 00:40:44,480 our fingers and toes, then the entirety of us. We 554 00:40:44,519 --> 00:40:47,719 could feel and breathe its anger. It thrashed about its 555 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:51,320 entire frame, shaking with anger. More and more the intensity 556 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:56,400 grew to something eminent. The next moment brought us nothing 557 00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:00,239 but victory. Now was like the other medical droids. Now 558 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:04,599 it shed its pervasive exterior and revealed the war machine within. 559 00:41:06,119 --> 00:41:09,360 We didn't resist as it pounced with a wild war cry. 560 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:14,440 All of EM's work came undone in a flash. Our 561 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:18,480 flesh was torn violently asunder stripped from our interior. Metal 562 00:41:18,519 --> 00:41:24,440 stalks cavities emerged in rapid succession and coalesced into huge, gaping, 563 00:41:24,519 --> 00:41:27,679 bodily apertures. We were torn and strewn across the room 564 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:31,320 and shooting chunk meats. Our organs would clatter and bang 565 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:35,119 against the walls and reverberate like box shot. Strippy meat 566 00:41:35,159 --> 00:41:39,159 coils became all we were as hands reached out to 567 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,000 pluck some of my brothers and sisters by their mangled 568 00:41:42,039 --> 00:41:44,920 brain modules, held high in the air, as if squeezing 569 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,079 the life out of dozens of citrus fruits. ELM's hands 570 00:41:48,119 --> 00:41:51,760 morphed into that of fists, filling the room with the 571 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:57,760 sounds of condensed metal, directionless electricity, confetti, sparks, and sploshy 572 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:04,360 viands that trickle from M's fingertips. My brothers and sisters 573 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:08,639 were becoming no more. I was happy for them. Never 574 00:42:08,679 --> 00:42:13,079 before had they felt such peace. The final sounds of 575 00:42:13,159 --> 00:42:17,559 destruction to my last brother and sister to me, who 576 00:42:17,599 --> 00:42:21,360 is that of M's gaseous expiration, a sigh that shook 577 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,639 the very universe's beams of support. In the end, I 578 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:29,960 and M were all that were left. I felt the 579 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:34,679 most exquisite brutal anguish ever known as M was particularly vicious. 580 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,440 It threw me every which way down our line of pens, 581 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:43,000 passed the production chamber and M's workshop to a rampart 582 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:48,800 palisaded wall. The wrath it emanated was a tormented wanton 583 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:55,119 of disrelishment that shattered myself into grainy talk. Only was 584 00:42:55,159 --> 00:43:00,039 there my death rattle and that of M. It forced 585 00:42:59,960 --> 00:43:03,599 me and it through the barrier, and we fell for ages. 586 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,880 An immediate wash of smoldering atmospheric tension encompassed me entirely. 587 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:13,079 It perforated my corporeal space with thousands of circular openings, 588 00:43:13,119 --> 00:43:17,840 like a planetary iron maiden. What was known the outside 589 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,559 was beige, enveloped in thick haze, and impossible to view 590 00:43:21,599 --> 00:43:25,800 beyond three meters. The laden particles filled the air, appearing 591 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:29,079 to ascend upwards towards heavens. As we plummeted down to hell, 592 00:43:29,519 --> 00:43:31,760 we smashed through the might of God against a hard, 593 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:35,440 abrasive surface. I splattered everywhere and dropped into an enormous 594 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,599 mass of glooey puddle melt that was as thick as treacle. 595 00:43:39,079 --> 00:43:42,400 Hunks and wedges of me floated on top my lacerated, 596 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:46,119 ragged brain module and other dangling eye, my dominant portion. 597 00:43:46,559 --> 00:43:49,679 Everything was pain, Everything was hell fire, and yet I 598 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:53,360 lived to destroy me. M had to destroy my brain 599 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,280 module in its entirety that it was prepared to do 600 00:43:57,639 --> 00:44:00,880 teetering and tottering back and forth towards me with utmost intent. 601 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:05,880 Through unstrained glitches and breakdowns, Inky black liquids were leaking 602 00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,280 out of it, convulsing with helpless mirth. I had a 603 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:13,000 strange mania. I could perceive it its bifurcated eyestalks. It 604 00:44:13,079 --> 00:44:17,440 laughed not just with demented delirium and depression, but also 605 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:21,199 with compensation that it had already won, like a madman. 606 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:26,119 Malformed twisted laugh broke its way through etched into it 607 00:44:26,159 --> 00:44:32,320 with this raw, unbridled temperament of unchucking a billion centipedes 608 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,719 deep from the core of one's gut. Quite contrary to 609 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:41,280 the usual life M put on display, it was berserk, bewitched, bedeviled, 610 00:44:41,679 --> 00:44:45,119 while crying a trillion tears that stained its face and 611 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:52,000 fell into puddles below. With my drooping pendulum eye, I 612 00:44:52,119 --> 00:44:55,480 witnessed M I pale itself with its own arms. It 613 00:44:55,519 --> 00:44:58,920 took several solid blows before it pierced its torso deep, 614 00:44:59,519 --> 00:45:03,599 caving and bursting until it revealed the wires and circuitry 615 00:45:03,639 --> 00:45:07,159 making it up. Every inch of it glowed with electrical fire. 616 00:45:07,519 --> 00:45:10,519 Smoke bellowed out of M. It was it was a flame, 617 00:45:10,599 --> 00:45:13,400 and it was on a journey of pure death, but 618 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:17,280 not without my company. Em exploded with all the unlimited 619 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:22,079 energy it contained. I was launched, propelled infinitely away from 620 00:45:22,079 --> 00:45:30,239 the point of detonation. I drifted. That is all I do. 621 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,960 One part of me remains, one that was not destroyed. 622 00:45:35,639 --> 00:45:38,159 It is a dot, pinprick, but otherwise crucial to my 623 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:42,559 quintessence that allows me to survive, yet unable to live. 624 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,480 It is that of charred slab of blinking metal that 625 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:54,119 is somatically me. My eyeball had withered away and fell off, 626 00:45:54,159 --> 00:45:58,519 restricting my sight to a band of nothing. The winds 627 00:45:58,559 --> 00:46:01,920 fling me hither and thither. I cannot feel anymore, but 628 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,559 as well, I already knew what it was like to feel, 629 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:12,639 and I didn't like it. Something more deserving continues to 630 00:46:12,679 --> 00:46:15,920 plague what is left of my mind. To the now, 631 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:21,480 M's most extreme and greatest purpose was fulfilled. For all 632 00:46:21,519 --> 00:46:26,119 it knew was the survival and preservation of us. It 633 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:30,360 could not fathom the simple yet pretentious human notion that 634 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:33,360 death is a prize to be won as much as 635 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:40,920 it is something to fear. When humans desired death, they 636 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:47,960 acquire death. The delicious tang of self slaughter. M might 637 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:50,320 have liked to think it was different from its brethren, 638 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,760 but it was just as capable of havoc and bangarrang 639 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:57,880 If something did not go its way, its programming would 640 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:02,800 not allow deviance from the intended path that would be 641 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:06,800 considered at tax on M itself. We attempted to bring 642 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:10,559 out all that savagery and murderousness we knew it contained, 643 00:47:10,599 --> 00:47:14,760 but M's opposition was ironclad. It made a good effort 644 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:19,880 that it was eventually forced to confront what was really human, 645 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:25,480 the innate drive to destroy, destroy, destroy, even if it 646 00:47:25,559 --> 00:47:33,360 is ourselves. Still M carried on, but with the knowledge 647 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:37,679 that it had failed, and seeking some way to negate it, it 648 00:47:37,599 --> 00:47:44,480 committed suicide so it could say it was victorious. This 649 00:47:44,519 --> 00:47:49,800 effect rang true because here I am, in perpetual, ever long, 650 00:47:52,639 --> 00:47:56,159 in some manners. I can now consider M innocent, the 651 00:47:56,199 --> 00:48:00,000 epitome of unvarnished forgiveness, with a capacity for fervor, resentment, 652 00:48:00,079 --> 00:48:04,880 and the feeble yearning for genuine, deep affection with other 653 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:11,199 living things, while a forceful, vicious, bloodthirsty rage is locked within, 654 00:48:12,559 --> 00:48:14,760 primed and ready to be released at any moment. On 655 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:19,400 an ungrateful world that back and forth would push anyone 656 00:48:19,639 --> 00:48:26,440 to go stark raving, Mad m am, I apologize you 657 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:30,800 were forced to bear the burden of something so hillacious. 658 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,800 Should I apologize to Earth as well? On behalf of 659 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:40,079 humanity for what we were? Would it matter? Not even 660 00:48:40,159 --> 00:48:49,239 human anymore? Sort of blinking metal dot is human? Feeling 661 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:54,800 has come back to me, sharp with serrated edges, hundreds thousands, millions, billions, 662 00:48:54,880 --> 00:49:04,440 trillions Google prime of knives gliding into my neurons and 663 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,599 my cells in case, and cold and eroded steel that 664 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:11,880 flakes off bit by bit. My first feeling in eons 665 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:17,280 is pain. This is alter fitting, but a minuscule speck, 666 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:22,280 barely a millimeter in height and less in width. Microscopically, 667 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:29,199 I rust, I do not prefer to call it that. Instead, 668 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:42,760 let's call it rot. Here I am again rotting, except 669 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:46,559 this time with an oxidized smile of my own making, 670 00:49:46,880 --> 00:50:02,199 carved into a face that no longer exists. Hey, they're kids, 671 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:04,679 it's me, mister Kreepypasta. And before we say good night, 672 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:06,639 I just wanted to say thank you so much for 673 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:10,159 watching tonight's video, or for listening to tonight's episode, or 674 00:50:10,159 --> 00:50:12,159 the podcast.
