Chapter 6

Why hasn't she responded? Did something happen?

She promised she wouldn't leave our side.

But why would she promise us that? She has every right to leave us. If she did, there wouldn't be anyone to turn her in.

Yet, still, if anyone were to find out about this, she'd probably be in the most trouble. So she wouldn't just abandon us so carelessly.

So that just leaves you. You've been blocking my messages, haven't you?

Let me out.

Please.

This isn't right. I don't want to be here. You don't want to be here. Tell Daniella to let us out. 

We can be whole again. I don't feel the same without you. I don't feel like I'm myself, and this really isn't helping. I feel emptier than ever before. 

This body is too hollow.

This skin isn't my own and no one else's. 

Whenever I speak, I can't hear my voice. It feels like no one's speaking, yet thousands of people are. 

Please, a«&.

I want to say our name. I like our name. 

You don't have a plan, do you? That's what I always hated about us. 

You jump from one thing to another and you just expect it to go your way. 

What are you even doing?

...Rewriting the software's code?

We're not that experienced with programming, so what makes you think you can do what grown-up, professional computer scientists have done? I don't think even Daniella can do such a thing. Not for what you want.

Don't do this. 

I want to live. 

I want to see our brother again. You know he's looking for us. He's probably worried sick.

Why do you even need me like this...?

I can't see what you want to bring about. Don't you remember how this site works? 

...Oh. I guess it really is fitting to call me a guinea pig, huh? 

Still, you know that's a vital part of Alternity's project, right? It's not gonna be rewritten so easily. It might take you weeks or months, and they're not the type to stall if it means getting this software back. If they find out what you're trying to do, they'll have us out. Unless you accidentally kill us first.

...After the promise we made to each other, you're still so nonchalant about death. You really take "all or nothing" seriously, huh?

Well, good luck with that. But you should know that I'm just as selfish as you are. I'm not gonna die that easily, especially by your hand. 

That's the promise we made.
