Startled awake, Brandon found himself in his bed. Looking around, he saw that everything was dark. Going to turn on the light, he saw that everything looked fine. Nothing was broken or out of place. Looking out the window he saw nothing, it was pitch black, As if nothing existed beyond the window. Opening the window to get a better look. He tried to stick his hand out to touch it, he heard someone say,

"I wouldn't do that"

Shocked to hear someone talk, he turned around and saw a woman. She was dressed in a white dress with gold lining. She had the same appearance as the people who kidnapped him. 

"Who are you people and what have you done to me" asked Brandon getting ready to run

"I apologize for what my people have done to you"

"That still doesn't answer my question. What did they do to me!" he said angrily "The last thing I remember was waking up on a table, missing an arm and a leg. Then they hit me I'm the face and drug me."

"I'm sorry that you had to go through that. To answer your question, The people that kidnapped you were a group of fanatic scientists and biologist. They had found a way to make their way into this planet, and many others,, in order to make living weapons. In their twisted mind, they thought that If they make an army of soldiers that were undefeatable, they could bring all life in the universe under one government and have everlasting peace.the problem is, now that they've opened the door, they can't close them."

"But why experiment with me. They could've used their own people for their experiments? And how many doors did they open?"

"The lingcoids are under my protection. They could've but then they would face divine punishment. As for the doors, They've opened hundreds"

"Wait, what do you mean by 'divine punishment' and how would you deliver it? Are you some sort of diety?" He asked mockingly

"I would make them suffer the consequences of playing god. And yes, I am"

"Prove it"

"I can't I am in your head, I have no power here"

Hearing that this he tried to make the scenery change, he imagined himself standing at the door of his workplace. Soon the world started to blurr and soon started to look like what he had imagined. Looking around he stood there, slackjawed. Taking it one step further, he imagined there to be a metal folding chair in front of him. Watching as the ground infront of him blurr then solidify into the chair. When he tried to sit in it he found it was solid and held his weight, Now believing her story, he looked back at her and said

"I'm sorry for mocking you"

"Its quite alright. As to what I'm here for, I am here to apologize for the actions of my people and for what I've done"

"What do you mean you've done?"

"I had to make sure that when you woke up, you could live the life that was stolen from you"

"Why are you apologizing for that?" He said warily 

"Its about the what I've had to do in order to make it happen. You were the last one they experimented with and the first to wake up. The reason you were missing an arm and a leg was because they were going to replace the broken parts with machines. When you woke up was the moment they deemed you perfect for the 'upgrades'. The first of the super solders. The more parts they switched for metal, the more they were reaffirmed you were going to be the first. Once they got to your organs, chose to enhance them with all they had. Once they started, they couldn't stop. They wanted more out of you, so they went further and further. To the point were the only thing that was you, was your brain and face." She said with a mournfull face

Staring at her incredulously, he said

"You're kidding right?"

She just stared at him, wordlessly. 

"Are you saying that, because you couldn't control the people you supposedly protect, let them do this to me and hundreds of others!? You just sat there and watched as they cut me and others like me apart!? Why would you let them do that!?"

"I cannot interfere with mortals or else I would be condemning my people and my self to suffer a fate worse than death" She said distressed 

"How long has it been since they put me under" he said bitterly.

"Around 30 years"

"30 YEARS!? WHY DID YOU WAIT 30 YEARS"

"I had to make sure that you would not hunted by them, so I waited until they had died or had been killed."

"Why would they be killed? Is someone hunting them?" He said bluntly, still seething about what she said

"No, due to the amount of doors open, hundreds of planets have been mixing together leading to the food chain getting scrambled. Predators become prey and prey become predators."

"And what of humanity? What happened to them?"He asked 

"They population has dropped but they are still going. Especially the place you were from."

Now having calmed down from hearing about his body, he remembered what happened to his arm and knee. 

"How did they break my arm and destroy my knee? I didn't hear anything but the sound of my bones breaking?" Cringing after remembering the sound and pain

"Its a weapon they have, imagine punching something at the speed of sound, without making a noise. Is that all the questions? We don't have much time"

Not wanting to waste time asking stupid questions. He asked

"How did I stay alive for 30 years without food or water?" 

"You are mostly machine now, so you don't need alot of nutrients.  You were sedated and had an IV in you constantly"

"How would I wake up? Didn't you say that there wasn't a lingcoid that knew where I was alive?" 

"I will wake you up but you have to open the cage, you can break open the door once your awake. Before you go I need to tell you, because of your lack of skin, you will not be able to feel anything physically. No pain, no pleasure, no sense of taste, smell, or touch"

"Thank you for telling me" he said with a bit of contemplation. Only having hearing and sight would be disorienting, even after being In New body. Looking at her I'm the eyes, he steeled himself for what he was about to do.

"I'm ready. Wake me up"
