Mel is a robot and a university student that associates herself as an A.I. due to her past and avoids showing emotion. You will experience her life as you go through each door. Some doors will give you a fragment of her life while others will be fragments of others, such as Susanna who is a human that has known Mel since summer orientation and who Mel would consider as a friend. As you read, try to piece them together as you navigate through the caverns and hallways of Mel's brain. Good luck, my fellow explorer. Setting takes place in the present day but in an alternate universe where robots and humans, and other creatures, live together on Earth. --- This is a word I found on Tumblr that automatically clicked to me and made me think, "This sounds like my character, Mel." Originally my Creative Writing Final titled Project Human Being, I thought it would be cool to expand on the short fictional story. I wanted to see the progression I make of Mel's world and my progression of myself as a writer. Note: Many of the words for each door is from wordstuck on Tumblr for inspiration Definition: n. a moment of awareness that someone you've known for years still has a private and mysterious inner life, and somewhere in the hallway of their personality is a door locked from the inside, a stairway leading to a wing of the house that you've never fully explored-- an unfinished attic that will remain maddeningly unknowable to you, because ultimately neither of you has a map, or a master key, or any way of knowing exactly where you stand

Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.
