Persona in #22
It rained today, yesterday and possibly tomorrow as well… but the sky is bright yet no sun can be seen in this deserted place. I’m soaked, always soaked and that’s fine for at least it never floods here. The clock is ticking but it’s not skipping… time is constant yet everything is wasted and ruined. Colors dripping with the tears of the heavens leaving each crumbled building, houses: plain and lifeless. Sometimes I could see rainbows on the ground as the paint joined with the others… it’s beautiful, it’s the last thing that keeps me alive in this tragic world… until they blend and turn black… a darkness I try to forget for a reason I don’t know but I do feel, it is wrong.
All of things are either burnt or shattered… nothing is spared and most of the time, the rooms and floors are empty… What happened here?... How long was I gone to make everything extinct? The unnatural creations are turning into sand – falling piece by piece each minute that doesn’t exist. It’s very lonely and depressing here… I wish I would turn into dust just like the things I touch but somehow I remained intact and untainted. The sorrow showering from above reflects what I feel in this sleepless emptiness but why is the source of light still shinning gracefully? What is it trying to say? Not to give up? I can’t give faith in this mess… yet I feel I can’t leave just yet.
Lately, as I walk around aimlessly, I could find a good shelter that I could enjoy for a while.“The universe is cruel.” I concluded and laughed though it hurts “Cold and ruthless…” I continued while warming myself with my hand rubbing the surfaces of my arms “What did I do to deserve this?” tears are building on the sides of my eyes “I can’t take this anymore!” I closed my eyes and felt the heat of my tears sliding down my cheeks… it felt comforting but the moment I opened my eyes… I just want to scream “Please release me.”
“Resource number 012897 is developing unsafe emotions in passage number twenty two. Immediate solution is advised.” The system informed seconds after the observation on the subject.
“That’s the last straw! I give up! I’ll send this to the Third Division.” Jezel a watch-guard from the legion of Peter had enough of the problems of resource number 0129897 for vault ten’s AI can’t handle its reaction and complexity.
“I won the bet! Now let’s gamble if the resource can someday escape the vicinity.” Her co-worker named Cleit became too confident.
“Seriously? Escape? No one managed to run lose here. This one is just too unbalanced and unpredictable for the current AI but I’m sure when EVE or ADAM manages this kid, he’ll become a slave to the Throne of Wisdom.” She laughed at the other’s prediction.
“We don’t know the future but I do know we are the rebels here but this guy, girl, being.. is more rebellious towards all the fabricated realities he’s currently experiencing. This could be an uprising on the making; you should know.” The other formulated a strange hypothesis.
“Then again we don’t know the future so Resource number 012897 is advised to be inspected by the Third Headquarters.” Jezel said to her collogue at the same time, ordering the system.
“Resource number 012897 is currently transported to the Third Headquarters. Labyrinth and outcomes are saved. Results will be available after a week.” The officer yawed and stretched herself while listening to the update – she was definitely challenged by the certain resource
“Error. Passage number 5, 29, 34, 57, 65, 78, 111, 254, and 401 of Resource number 012897 are not able to suspend for the commanded operation. Forced discontinuation of Passages is advised.” The screens suddenly turned red and the alarm kept on flashing loudly in the office of the watch-guard.
“What is it now!?” Her patience has reached its peak; and as she rages in her cubicle, Cleit with other staffs went back to their work immediately for they don’t want the approaching person to reprimand them as well.
“Is there a problem watch-guard from the legion of Peter?” A known Lieutenant from the First Headquarters came to visit. She was on duty in the station: surveying the resources and checking the stats if they are doing well or termination is needed – for the particular subject is totally drained of information.
“Ma’am!” Jezel stood from her seat and saluted at the higher official “Resource number 012897 is unruly by nature; which is why system MARY is demanding numerous added restrictions.” She confessed without doubting.
Beitt looked at the screens to see the information and evidences of the said subject ‘Vault 10, so that is where you are.’ she thought. “I’ll be managing this one to see what I can do. You may leave for now.” She gave a good solution to the lower officer to hide her intensions.

Persona in #490
The smell of the leather on the steering wheel is still itself though I’ve been driving since the day I got conscious. I have lived with it long enough to know almost every detail of the vehicle. Even running on top speed with the machine was still useless on escaping the scenario. Just to know how stuck I am, I had explored the forest around me but I always end up finding my car on the road.
I never get hungry to the point of forgetting what food taste like. And talk about fashion, I got nothing else but a gray jumpsuit and some vintage style sandals. I only have one available key for the car but no matter how many times I throw it away, I can get it back where it belongs – at the ignition point… creepy right? I also own a useless credit card while my simple joy in this pretty prison is an endless cup of hot cappuccino.
The road turns from left to right and sometimes there are lengthy straight paths; it just gets boring the longer you ride in the morning and it becomes more hopeless at dusk. I don’t seem to run out of gasoline and my tires are as fresh as yesterday; like everything else that I know exists, time does not apply on it. Though I can go through distances without constrains, I still feel caged, locked up, stopped. I climbed one of the biggest trees I’ve seen in the area and it just left me feel more fearful the moment I saw the view from the top… the forest is everlasting too. I tried to kill myself to stop living in this hellish situation – I intentionally crashed many times yet I’m still spotless from the crime after a mysterious blackout.
