Lost love

Here is an old story I wrote a couple months ago, but never wanted to put it on here. I decided to put it on here tonight to decide if it is any good? I know there might be quite a few errors because it is a rough idea I had at the time . . . Enjoy it: 



It was supposed to be a perfect weekend for us. She was supposed to come on the 27th of April to spend Friday and Saturday night with me so she could stay the whole weekend. I had it all planned out: Friday we would go have dinner at the local town park, Saturday we would spend all day doing something together, then that night I would surprise her with with dinner at her favorite restaurant, Fuji, then surprise her with a night bowling, then I would take her up on a hill by my house so we could stare at the stars and just talk with each other. Of course though I should have known, things don’t always go according to plan. Who would have guess they would have gone this badly though. 
April 17th, 2013, my girlfriend was leaving for a trip to Florida with her family for like five days. This was all in the plan, I knew she was going on this trip and it was fine, she would be back in time for our special prom that I had planned out for us. She had no idea what I had planned, and I was just getting more excited by the day for surprising her. 

My girlfriend’s name was Emma Manbury. She is absolutely gorgeous, but of course I would say that right? I am not kidding though she is absolutely the most beautiful girl I have ever laid eyes on. She has amazingly smooth blonde hair, the greatest blue eyes you would ever want to stare into, and just incredibly smooth skin. Her personality is just amazing, she is very opinionated (believe me when I say you will never win an argument with her), she can be ditzy which is what makes her great, and she just loves to laugh which I love. 

Enough about me talking about how amazing she is, which you wouldn’t fully understand until you actually met her anyway. Back to her trip to Florida though. Well, she had a great flight down there, everything went perfect. She had let me know when she landed and everything. She took lots of pictures with her iPod which I got via a photo stream on my iPhone and iPad. She looked like she was having a great time. They had went to Disney World for there trip. She took a picture in front of the famous Disney castle. 

The flight home is where everything had went wrong. The accident was devastating. What you might be thinking is that the plane crashed right? Well no, thats not what had happened. The flight went great, prefect even. Her plane landed right on time like it was supposed to. After her plane ride is where everything went wrong I was told. I wasn’t there, and maybe if I was there things could have happened differently. I should have been there, but no instead I was at work washing some semi-trucks. 

I was told by her mother over the phone that Emma had apparently walked across the parking lot to go to there car, and some reckless jackass had come around the corner had hit her going 15 MPH. He had broken both of her legs, and cracked five ribs, and caused serious head trauma. The hospital she was flown to was in Rochester, Minnesota. The second I had heard about it I just took of driving from my home in Owen, Wisconsin. It was about a three hour drive, but the way I was driving, I was there in two hours. 

I loved this girl, I had been dating her for about three years now, and I couldn’t imagine life without her. The car ride was probably the longest time I have been apart from her, and I have gone a month without seeing her before. How could something like this have happened? If only I was there, things could have been completely different. If I was there I could have picked her up out front, so she wouldn’t have had to be in the parking lot at all. 

Her mother told me on the phone as I was driving, that she was in serious condition and that she had went into a coma. I was terrified to lose her. She was my everything as I told her all the time. We have been dating for three years so of course she is very important to me! Only reason we aren’t farther than dating is because I am still in high school and still planning on attending college. 

When I had gotten to the hospital they tI saw her mother immediately. You could tell she had been crying because around her eyes, which were the exact same color as her daughters, were red. She came up to me and said in a somewhat soothing voice, “Emma is in surgery right now for her legs and broken ribs. They said it could take awhile.” 

I hadn’t cried yet because I couldn’t believe the news that I was told. I didn’t want to believe it, but now that I was here I couldn’t help the tears. I couldn’t help it. Emma’s mom brought me into a hug as I cried and said, “It’ll all be okay, she is a tough girl.”

Pawns

Two humans (or what appear to be humans) are sitting in front of a futuristic computer screen. On the computer screen is a man walking through a modern day home.

"I am sick of this human, he has become to independent and self possessed."

"Then why don't you just kill him off?"

"I have thought about it, but I have been trying to get him to become wimpy and some-what of a man whore," stated a man with a very techno-style accent.

"I say just buy a new one, and have him do the things you want. I mean wouldn't it be simpler that way?" questioned another man but with a more foreign accent.

"I guess. I mean it is hard to change a human's path isn't it?" asked the first man.

"Yeah after like 15-20 years they start to develop there own since of way, they discover new things that users bring into there world. They decide to change paths from what we have originally set for them. Sure richer people control the better people in the game, and don't care what they do as long as they are successful," explained the foreign accent man.

"Items and people in this are starting to get outta hand though! To kill my human is like $1500," said the techno-style accent man pointing at the screen which was showing prices of methods to kill human.

"I think it should be free to kill a human if it is required of us to kill them when we are done with them," said foreign accent.

"I agree Franklin. They require everyone to kill of their human if they want a new one, but they charge us for it. I wonder what would happen if someone didn't kill of there human?"

Franklin, the foreign accent man, looked shocked at what Josh, the other man, had said. "No one has ever done that Josh. That is crazy talk, it can't be done! That could risk the existence of the game, The Human Condition."

"It can be done, you just have to be smart at it. Plus how would you know that it would risk the existence of the game? No one would know because no one has actually ever done it before. We could be the first ones? Aren't you somewhat interested in what could happen?" exclaimed Josh.

"Well yeah I am sure that we are not the first ones to even think about this! Hypothetically speaking though, if we were to do this, how would we do it?" asked Franklin. Franklin seemed to be very intrigued all of a sudden. "We could be the creators of something greater if we did this couldn't we, the first ones . . . ever, hypothetically speaking though of course."

"Well I am a computer hacker, so we could potentially figure it out. I am sure if we work hard enough we could find away around ending a human cycle with out ending his life. You want to try and see what would happen to a human life without it being under control by any Starter?"

Josh and Franklin are two Starters. Starters are aliens from another planet in the Milky Way Galaxy actually. It is an undiscovered planet called by its natives (Starters), Antecedent. Josh and Franklin are the two Starters that are responsible for the Great War. For the entire existence of the Earth, human beings thought they were there own self. In reality, Starters have been controlling there every move. Everything that has happened in human history, has happened because the Starters were playing a game called, The Human Condition. Starters created earth and everything on it because they wanted to create the ultimate game ever!

Starters would be able to control the life of one human being at a time. They decided everything that the human did. Eventually the game on Antecedent became a Starters life. Starters spend all day controlling the human beings, and when they send their human to bed Starters went out and did there stuff till they woke them up. (Starters never sleep, plus a day on Antecedent is longer than a Earth day).  Starters made money on the game also which is what made the game more of a lifestyle for a Starter.

What Josh and Franklin did was open the human world to us. A human that was aloud to think for itself could make others think for themselves and learn about a Starters existence! After Josh unlocked Zac Ruiln, his human being you found out earlier, all it took was three months for the Great War to begin. Where Humans rebelled against Starters who invaded, for there freedom. So begins the story of the pawns.

There is more to come on this interesting concept. This has been a fictional story by Noah Mark Bitney.
