Delta Squad

Chapter 5 - The Computer

"I still can't believe it.. oh wait till Rhys hears about this." Andrew excitedly spoken to himself, as his entire life being blind from birth and now being able to see for the first time was a miracle to him.

Despite his excitement, Andrew was curious to know more of his family background. He began searching the room. "These all seem like to be blueprints, plans, strategies.. look at all the equipment in here-.."

The room was a mess to some standards, as pieces of papers were scattered across the tables and floors, technology and other types of metal scrap and equipment would be hanging on walls or sitting on shelves. The room was clear from dust, like if someone had managed to clean it but kept everything where it would be.

Andrew would find a blueprint that looks exactly like the glasses that he was wearing now. 'Project A', it seems that the glasses are removable; squeezing the frames of the glasses will allow the glasses to ease off the users face if they wish to take it off. These glasses should be able to connect to .... The rest of the writing would seem to have been damaged, perhaps due to how long the blueprint had been sitting there for? Who knows.

"Hmmm I wonder what that meant at the end.." Andrew questioned himself looking at other blueprints.

"There is so much stuff that they were making.. rope grenade canisters.. gadgets, utilities.. a bionic arm? Though it seems that they didn't get to finish writing much on that one.. that could've been handy for someone-" Andrew would snicker as his own joke quietly.

He would slowly gaze upon a massive screen, walking over to it. "I wonder if I can turn it on somehow.." the sound of the door to the room would open and with it followed footsteps.

———————————

Rhys had entered the room, looking for the whereabouts of Andrew. To his surprise he would spot the glasses on Andy and approaches him. "Andrew? why you got glasses on?"

"Oh hey- so uh turns out that my parents actually worked here. I dont know too much.. I know they're dead, what the boss Rose told me." Andrew paused for a moment, looking down at the prints Infront of him before taking another breath. "And this is or well was their room, their plans, blueprints, everything.. Oh- yeah I can see now"

"wait.. WHAT?! Youre able to see now?? how is that even possible." Rhys would study the glasses on Rhys' face and then eventually frowned, "I'm sorry lad.. well least you know what happened to yours, mine just straight up abandoned me and not heard a thing since- so its a step ahead of me anyway..." He would chuckle awkwardly, attempting to make Andy laugh.

Andrew would show a small smile on his face, knowing that he was trying to cheer him up. Grabbing the glasses blueprints and handing it to him. "I'm okay, really. Hey come check this with me, how do you think how we turn this on?" Andrew would point to the screen.

Rhys would quickly scan the plans with his eyes, his eyes widening from what he was reading, thinking how is it possible to reverse blindness but the proof was Infront of him. Eventually turning his head over to the screen that Andrew was pointing at, "I'm not sure, what do you think thats on it?" Rhys would look around the screen trying to find a button that would maybe turn it on.

"Well I would need to have turned it on to know that, now wouldn't I?" Andrew chuckled to himself, shaking his head as he was clearing the desk from the papers. Andrew would find a keyboard that seems to have been connected to the screen. "Hey, think I found something-"

As Andrew had spoke about the keyboard, the door would suddenly open again.
