A new kinda processing idea has been executed on this.
This guy was stuck in a spider's web and I tried to come to his rescue. This was clicked midway... :D
1 More coming.
Sorry for being out and not being able to see your photos but I have been traveling a lot. Though, I'll make sure I see 'em all as soon as I am done with my project for YKK.
Have a great weekend Everyone.
Good Friday! :)

Thanks so much for all your comments and faves... :)
We always scan the dogs, and again, like 99.9% of the dogs we rescue - no microchip.
I don't understand how come this concept of microchipping your dog didn't catch on yet...

This image is of Melvin the Microchip who is about 3mm in length. He has been shot using the focus stacking technique and the final image was created from about 30 images combined.
The image is also the cover shot for my latest video on how to do macro focus stacking. This is the third part in my macro photography series.

Traumatic times have befallen the O'Halloran household! We have invested in a new cat door which works on the microchips inserted into our cats. All sounds wonderful (in theory!).
We've definitely had an unwanted feline visitor in recent weeks who has marked its territory in the house, including the cats' bed. I'd heard about this sort of catflap from our friends and so decided to invest.
Fitting was easy - scanning the cats so that they register with the unit a little more challenging!
Martha wasn't so difficult and was absolutely fabulous at helping us to check it all out - this isn't because she is helpful, it's because she is ruled by her stomach and will do ANYTHING for Dreamies cat treats!
Molly, on the other hand, completely freaked out over the whole thing, left home and didn't return until 5am the next day, appearing outside the bathroom window and mewling pitifully. Thankfully she's nearly back to 'normal' but still hasn't braved the Flap of Doom!
Microchips from an earlier era and a high-tech chip more people are likely to have in their wallets and purses nowadays.
Based on a composition I originally was going to submit for Macro Mondays, before I decided to try something different.
I forgot about this sketch. I drew it for my exhibition in the Technologie Park but I didn’t print it in the end.
A few days ago, I uploaded a photograph of an old, dirty Pentium processor taken with a 50mm lens on a bellows. This time, I am showing a brand new Pentium (not dusty at all yet!), the one I bought in the Fall of 2020 to go into the new PC I was assembling then.
This time, I used the Laowa 100mm 2× macro lens with a Fotodiox Pro 35-mm extension tube.

I just got Covid Vaccinated, and so, my speech these past days has been revolving around :
- The fact that I'm now a 5G hotspot,
- My microchip and Bill Gates talking inside my ear,
- A third arm growing from my butt and my second head being angry (the head is named Georges),
- My slow transformation in an octopus.

We always check... I can't remember the last time we found a dog with a microchip.
Please microchip your dogs to help keep them safe.
Another one I took from the same shoot the other day, I like this one because it reminds me of a small microchip, especailly with all the gold. Thanks for visiting!

Pulled this out of my old home computer we were chucking out, thought it'd be a cool idea and this one turned out decent I think!
This is a scan of a 4x5 Polaroid color photo I took at work in the summer of 1975. It shows why production workers in an area where microchip wafers are manufactured or chips used in circuit assembly are required to wear face masks. Just speaking near an exposed microchip while going without a mask can result in a nearly microscopic droplet of saliva being projected from your mouth onto the chip surface. Here a tiny droplet containing an epithelial cell has landed on the circuit side of the chip causing, after evaporation, an area of contamination. The cell nucleus is the dark spot in the center. There seems to be an area of "bleed-out" contamination surrounding the cell, outside the cell wall.

“Leave no one behind!” Let’s build a one-world governmental system. Let’s build the Matrix—the Beast System. Everyone will be digitally connected to the spinner’s WEB, can you feel the venom? Everyone will have a digital ID. Everyone will be controlled by a social credit score system. CBDCs: digital currencies, digital thin air. Everyone will receive a free welfare check. Everyone will be a global citizen of the new world order. Hey, we’re already halfway there! All hail the United Nations! All hail Caesar!
The Book of Daniel prophesied the rise and fall of previous world empires, and those prophecies came true. They rose, they fell. The Book of Daniel also prophesies about a future empire (Beast). This empire will be ruled by a Beast called the Antichrist (666). Shocker: the kingdom of the Beast will be ruled by a Beast. The Book of Revelation prophesies that no one will be able to buy or sell without the Mark of the Beast. Microchip biometric tattoo anyone!?! Take the Mark, be reborn (recreated) in the Image of the Beast, and become a trans-human (666).
While cleaning out my bookmarks, I found a dozen articles from the United Nations. I threw them together, and 98% of what’s written below is quoted verbatim. Sustainable development: building the foundation of the new world order one piece at a time. If you care to take a glimpse, if you dare:
By 2030 a new kind of capitalism (stakeholder capitalism/neo-fascism) will take root. A new economy will be established that will address the needs of all stakeholders (banks, corporations, billionaires, and governments). This new breed of new capitalism will be enabled thanks to a new way of assessing the performance of companies based on a valuation of their overall impact (social credit score system). Indeed, this new way of assessing business performance will be based on standardized, comprehensive and simple impact-valuation metrics. These enhance the usual financial statements with other dimensions like society, human rights and the environment, leading to a ‘total impact’ rating that is used by management and investors alike. ‘Total impact’ is a simple way of assessing how much a sector or a business contributes to social coherence, citizens’ wellbeing, environmental protection and the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Impact valuation expresses what matters in monetary terms, allowing the full range of stakeholders to agree what ‘good’ looks like—in the economy and in society. Governments, stock markets and businesses will fully embrace the new order that has given rise to a thriving new type of public-private partnership (neo-fascism). We will transition to a more eco-friendly economic system that requires collective action by multiple stakeholders across borders.
The new model of circular (dialectic [problem, reaction, solution] uroboros) economy is meant to allow the planet to breathe, while leaving no one behind. A Circular Economy (CE) is an economic model that focuses on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. By decoupling economic growth from resource use, setting global standards in product sustainability, keeping resource use within planetary boundaries and promoting the re-use of materials, a circular economy may be the only sustainable economic model for the future. The global financial sector plays a pivotal role in scaling up finance for pollution-free and circular solutions, by funding innovative businesses that prioritize circular design, resource efficiency and waste reduction. Financial institutions can also leverage their influence to drive policy changes and industry standards that favour circularity. It is evident that ‘business as usual’ will not help us to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Systems-based approaches along with a strong commitment to deep rooted transformations and actions are vital to the reduction of humanity’s footprint in our planet. Our resources are finite and the principles and practices of the circular economy will be catalytic in creating goods, processes and ecosystems that are restorative and regenerative by design. An Inclusive Green Economy (IGE) is a pathway towards achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. In its simplest expression, such an economy is low carbon, efficient and clean in production, but also inclusive in consumption and outcomes, based on sharing, circularity, collaboration, solidarity, resilience, opportunity, and interdependence. (A circular [green/sustainable] economy is an economy of degrowth.)
With more and more governments exploring the potential of CBDCs, there is a greater need to engage with various aspects of this emerging topic, including design, especially given its potential to foster financial inclusion. The United Nations Development Program (UNDP) has a long history of promoting technological and digital financial innovations that help advance financial inclusion and the SDGs more broadly. Its teams have worked with various countries on digital finance and infrastructure innovations, enabling underserved business segments, such as MSMEs (micro, small and medium enterprises), to access more sophisticated financial services or on enabling micro-savers to become micro-investors in green infrastructure projects, or on harnessing the developments in Distributed Ledger Technologies to advance innovative financial instruments for private capital mobilization for nature. Given UNDP’s expertise and leadership in this space, UNDP’s involvement in this discussion will help better support member states as they navigate this changing landscape. Partnership (public-private partnership) is at the heart of everything UNDP does. We offer a nearly universal presence across the world. We are determined to mobilize the means to implement the 2030 Agenda through a revitalized Global Partnership for Sustainable Development, with a focus on the poorest and most vulnerable. We support countries and communities as they work to eradicate poverty, implement the Paris Agreement on climate change and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.
The importance of legal identity is an integral part of Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). SDG Target 16.9, which aims to ‘provide legal identity for all, including birth registration,’ underscores the widespread significance of civil registration in societies globally. Acknowledging the developing potential and significance of digital legal ID, the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) has taken the initiative to draft a model governance framework. This blueprint is designed to aid the swift establishment of digital legal ID systems globally. At its core, this framework is intended to outline a normative model of the laws, policies and institutional arrangements that can help ensure the governance of digital legal ID systems is inclusive. It is informed by UNDP’s governance and digital strategies, which emphasize a rights-based and whole-of-society approach. The framework, for instance, recognizes the importance of civil society’s role in accountability, recourse and oversight. It also builds on long-standing experience and lessons from within the UN System on legal identity and the whole legal identity management ecosystem, which is based on civil registration. It is a critical enabler of digital transformation and is helping to accelerate the Sustainable Development Goals. Governments, donors, the private sector and civil society alike have an opportunity to shape it. This campaign is in collaboration with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Centre for Digital Public Infrastructure, Co-Develop, the Digital Public Goods Alliance, and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and is supported by GovStack, the Inter-American Development Bank, and UNICEF. This ambitious campaign heralds a new chapter in the global momentum around digital public infrastructure (DPI)—an underlying network of components such as digital payments, ID, and data exchange systems, which is a critical accelerator of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Following the G20 Leaders Declaration in 2023, Digital Public Infrastructure is a key breakthrough that gives the momentum needed to change course and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, across all 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Accelerating progress toward the SDGs requires inclusive digital transformation. Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) can maximize the opportunities for digitalization to support the SDGs and reduce the risks that digital technologies may bring. DPI is safe, accessible, affordable, green, financed, and future ready. In partnership with the UN Secretary-General’s Envoy on Technology and under the leadership of the UN Secretary-General, the Universal Safeguards initiative which also includes the 2030 Safeguards Action Hub will be launched at the 78th UNGA, leading into the Summit of the Future in 2024 and beyond. This campaign seeks to strengthen DPI partnerships (public-private partnerships) with the private sector and community-based organizations across 100 countries to integrate intermediaries into local digital ecosystems and facilitate greater scale services for inclusion, especially for women, as well as strengthen efforts to ensure universal digital connectivity.
The digital divide is further exacerbating these challenges—for example, 2.6 billion people, or around one-third of the world’s population, still lack internet access. But this is not just about access. The ‘usage gap’, the population living within the footprint of mobile internet coverage but not using this potentially game-changing connectivity, is now eight times larger than the total number of those without coverage. Limited digital skills, unaffordable data and devices, concerns of safety and security, and a lack of relevant content and services hinder people from participating in our increasingly digital societies and economies.
A new social contract needs to emerge that rebalances deep inequalities that are prevalent across societies. We must implement (universal socialism) Universal Basic Income (UBI). The alternative to not having UBI is the rising likelihood of social unrest, conflict, unmanageable mass migration, and the proliferation of extremist groups that capitalize and ferment on social disappointment. It is against this background that we seriously need to consider implementing a well-designed UBI, so shocks may hit, but they won’t destroy. Moving to such a system would need to ensure that the incentives to have a job remain intact. That is relatively simple to do: A UBI should be sufficient, to sustain a person at a modest minimum, leaving sufficient incentives to work, save, and invest. Lest the naysayers think this is a theory from the left, the idea of tax competition has been touched upon, for years on end, by the Organization of Economic Co-operation and Development.
Today, more people than ever live in a country other than the one in which they were born. For statistical purposes, the United Nations defines an international migrant as any person who has changed his or her country of residence. This includes all migrants, regardless of their legal status, or the nature, or motive of their movement. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development recognizes the positive contribution of migrants to inclusive growth and sustainable development. The Agenda’s core principle is to ‘leave no one behind,’ which includes migrants. Many of the Agenda’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) contain targets and indicators which are relevant to migrants or migration. SDG target 10.7 calls on countries to ‘facilitate orderly, safe, regular and responsible migration and mobility of people, including through the implementation of planned and well-managed migration policies.’ Under the United Nations Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, refugees and migrants have the same universal human rights and fundamental freedoms. It acknowledges the positive contribution of migrants to sustainable and inclusive development, and commits to protecting the safety, dignity and human rights and fundamental freedoms of all migrants, regardless of their migratory status.
Global citizenship is the umbrella term for social, political, environmental, and economic actions of globally minded individuals and communities on a worldwide scale. The term can refer to the belief that individuals are members of multiple, diverse, local and non-local networks rather than single actors affecting isolated societies. Promoting global citizenship in sustainable development will allow individuals to embrace their social(ist) responsibility to act for the benefit of all societies (collectivism), not just their own. The concept of global citizenship is embedded in the Sustainable Development Goals though SDG 4: Insuring Inclusive and Quality Education for All and Promote Life Long Learning, which includes global citizenship as one of its targets. By 2030, the international community has agreed to ensure that all learners acquire the knowledge and skills needed to promote sustainable development, including global citizenship. Universities have a responsibility to promote global citizenship by teaching their students that they are members of a large global community and can use their skills and education to contribute to that community.
Job 15:31 “If they are foolish enough to trust in evil, then evil will be their reward.”
Proverbs 1:32 “For the waywardness of the simple will kill them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them.”
Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
1 John 5:12 “Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.”
Now, an advertisement from the United Nations: Disinformation can be dangerous. With the advance of technology, digital media is increasingly being used to spread misinformation. The UN has been monitoring how mis- and disinformation and hate speech can attack health, security, stability as well as progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals. (Those who control information, control society. Those who manipulate information, manipulate society. Those who control the narrative, control the masses.)
They are slowly implementing the new world order one sustainable development goal at a time.
We felt a microchip, so we we took her to our vet & they used the wand. Not only did she have a chip, the owners were contacted & picked her up within a couple of hours. They were grateful for her safe return. She had been missing for 10 days.
Max got his microchip today. He is officially and completely adopted. I would like to remind you that I did put Max through the pound in case someone was looking for him and I have to say that my experience with it was just fine. I had heard stories from local people about how bad our pound is but the pound let me foster him and adopt him under my own terms. They were slow with the final paperwork, but I had an email confirming he was officially mine when the time expired. The pound "held" him for 10 days, though only 7 of those were business days. I did bypass the pound for his medical crisis, as I'm sure they would have euthanized him rather than spend the money on him with a 50-50 chance of survival. I did inform the bylaw officer about the situation, after the fact, and I reassured him that I didn't expect the town to cover any of his medical expenses. Probably I bent or broke some rule there, but he didn't say anything about it.
Picture above is from June 13 visit. I did go see Max and his people the other day, but I didn't take my camera that day.
Even if your cat doesn't go outdoors as a rule, it is a good idea to microchip your pet in case it escapes or gets lost. And remember to register the chip online so that the animal can be traced back to you if found!
Technicians at Lockheed Martin Space in Littleton, Colorado installed a microchip with 1.6 million names submitted by the public to ride along with NASA’s InSight Mission to Mars. The chip was installed on Jan. 23, 2018. This joins another microchip that was previously installed that included 800,000 names for a grand total of 2.4 million names going to Mars as early as May 5, 2018.
hmm, "chips" was not an easy challenge to deal with since i am watching what i eat, but then i had a brainstorm and dug out these ceramic circuit boards. and one actually had things soldered to it. (please don't tell me they are not computer chips-- 2 decades ago they may have been their version.)
so how did i come across these, you ask?? a dear friend used to to be part of the corporate world doing R&D as a chemist. after a long time she decided to give back-- to leave there and become a 3rd grade teacher and she was one of the best!! sadly, she succumbed to cancer and i still miss her.

Envious:
I was envious of the powers that the baby was getting for doing nothing but be born; I worked so hard everyday, yet i’m not a monster like she was. Well, they just needed to an even more scared ritual to make her, well, completely Envy. Sure they already ripped out half of a beating heart and pathetic brain and implanted the same microchip I had into her at least eighteen thousand times. “What would we do if Amaris is defeated?” I asked.
“We get Amberlee.” Nathan was still right beside me, and was still smoking. Gosh, I hated that smell. Stop smoking, daddy, it will kill you.
“And what happens when she falls?” Shut up child. Was my dad high? What the...what was going on. Why did I even care about this?
“Ha, we would probably had made something better.” Master was acting like a know-it-all, but I knew he didn’t know something. The answer to the next question.
“Master, what would happen if somebody figured out how to unleash the Wrath Crystals?”
“That will never happen.”
“But, what if it does?” The Wrath Crystals were more powerful than us; the only reason they were gone because Mona hid them somewhere.
“Excuse us, we need to go outside.” He opened the door, and pulled me outside with him. Kimberly, stop being a b*tch.
“What was that about, Kimber?”
“To become more powerful we have to think about the future. We already failed so much because we never got a step higher than the foe, and we need to stop failing!”
“We aren’t failing.” I gave Nathan the eyes; we hadn’t even seen the pink haired girl for years.
“The last time we killed somebody was years ago.” Yuni, why had that name stuck with me after all these years? She was dead, she was a Dark Priest, she was not a good girl anymore. You fail as a father!
“Bu-”
“No, you have to listen to me.” I grabbed the cigarette from Nathan, and threw it onto the ground. “Listen.”
“I’m your master.”
“And, i’m trying to help you.” Missy, take that back or I WILL KILL YOU! I crossed my arms knowing that he didn’t. “If you want to succeed listen.” Then the name Luka popped up in my head, but I did not know why I kept remembering this boy’s name.
“Are you saying i’m not good enough.” After that, Nathan grabbed a see through bag that had something that looked like dust in it. Something in my head made me scared of this thing. No!
“What?” But, the dust covered my body and the bag was empty. There was something different about me...why did all the sudden Nathan looked like a blonde version of the old movie star Tom Cruise? He was cuter, he was sexier, he was hotter. What was I just saying, what?
“Kimber, what do you think now?” No! What was that voice inside my head, nah, nothing mattered but master.
“The same as I ever did.” The expression on Nathan’s face told me something, but I didn’t know what. It was a smile, yet a grin at the same freaking time. How did that work, I pondered. I didn’t need an answer. Well, Nathan did and I was spending way too much time thinking to myself. “And, I will do anything for you, master.”
“Good.” What was up? Why was Nathan asking me all of these questions? Why am I asking myself all of these questions? Nothing felt wrong, but at the same time everything felt wrong. There was too many questions I had; MARKA employees wasn’t supposed to be the questioning kind.
“Why are you asking?”
“Just to make sure.”
“Okay.” Then a name came inside my head, Luka. What, oh great here I went again questioning myself, but what were these voices in my head? Was Mona trying to get to me? Not the questioning kind, not the questioning kind. “Is there something else?”
“Yes, commander Kimber?”
“What is it?” Luka, Luka, Luka. But, I tried to slap the thoughts out of my head; it didn’t work whatsoever. Luka, Luka, Luka. Why are you doing this to me, daddy?
“This.” What was th-. He silenced my thoughts by a kiss, what was happening? But, then my thoughts, my wonders, went away. The most powerful man in the universe liked me of all women, me Kimber. Then we broke apart when we heard footsteps in the hallway.
“Sir, we think we have sightings of the rebels.” I would normally go with him, yet something made me his little yorkie. Was it the dust, no way its puberty. I’m twenty-seven how could it be puberty?
“What do you want me to do?” Nathan handed me a box after that, a white box with a red bow.
“Open it in your room.” Why, I wanted to ask, but Nathan already was gone. Godd*mn teleportation powers.
“I guess I have to do what he says.” Then I continued down the hallway and went up the stairs till the fourth level, where I turned. When I reached my door I opened it.
“Home sweet home.” So, I closed the door, and quickly opened up the package. When I opened it I was sprayed with dust. All of this dust started to make me sick, but why should I care. Then ,the next layer, I saw striper clothes, but I didn’t care. Do exactly what master says, no questions. And, the last layer was a note.
Dear Kimber,
Come to the throne room right after you get ready because I have a surprise for you. And, I know you will come, but I just like writing letters, it’s a hobby for some reason. Well, see you later.
From your master, Nathan
All hail the king, all hail the master. So, I did what he said, still no questions, no weird useless memories, no anything that master didn’t like.
t the throne room:
Nobody was there yet, I always seemed to be the first person to many things. Then Rikku appeared from nowhere, and so did Andrea, Yuni, Tyler, and many other people the rebels love, well used to love. I was the only person in the room that was alive or was I? “Oh, you came.”
“Of course, master, when did I ever not obey you?”
“Good girl.” I could tell my skin was shining because all of that dust, all of the love.
“I’m never good,” I laughed.
“Just go over there.” He pointed at one of the sides of the throne. If I actually could ask something I would ask why do this seem to be like hell, not like that was a bad thing.
“Yes.” I was like his puppet; I did everything he wanted me to do. Give me a sandwich, yes because that was what I always did. Make me have fun, yes because that was what I always did. Then he directed all the other people around. We were ready for what he wanted, we always were.
“Time for war.” No questions about the war. I just stood there with very revealing clothes that would make any movie PG-13, but it didn’t make me disgusted. Nothing did expect if it made master so. Nothing. Murder, rape, anything. “Bring them in.”
“Yes sir.” Then I saw Fatima, pink haired girl, other pink haired girl, Fatima’s husband, Andru, Suki, and that annoying girl that used to be in the cage; they weren’t all here, but this was a big chunk of them still. I wasn’t disappointed; I couldn’t be.
“What the...that is just sick.” Pinky’s eyes widened till the size of Anime, well, eyes.
“Give up now,” master demanded.
“Why should we listen to you?” Fatima’s husband was usually the quiet one; I knew because I looked at his record a little time ago, quiet. Now I still didn’t feel anything.
“You will.” Nathan snapped his fingers, and Amberlee, Amaya, Enya, two babies, Von, and Violet somehow appeared. Yes, things were coming better and better.
“That’s impossible, we watched them escape!” Suki’s face showed feelings of sadness and anger, but not envy. No envy in the room.
“They will join your other dead friends if you don’t listen.” He got up from his chair, and pointed at me. “Or you will be like Kimber.” But, then he went up to Rikku and also pointed at her.
“Why are you doing this to us?” Andru questioned. No questioning allowed in the MARKA alliance, none whatsoever.
“It’s my job.”
“Your my father, that is not what fathers are supposed to do.” Nathan rolled my eyes, so I did also.
“How do you know that, Andru, you never had kids. Well, you did get married when you were sixteen, but nah I still hate you. Now to continue on with the thing I was doing.”
“You f*cker.” But, Nathan ignored Andru’s insult, and did what he wanted to do.
“Rikku, the brilliant weapon specialist whom had a wicked past, tee hee.” He continued walking down the line of the evil deceased. “Next, Andrea who was a loyal person who would do anything for her friends, and that was how she fell. And, Yuni the love-seeking magician who had a few problems with her stomach...yep. Tyler the real savior that just couldn’t take it...” blah blah blah blah. I wanted to fall asleep, but I needed to please master.
“This crappy time...urgh,” complained the other pink haired girl.
“Shut up.” I was kind of shocked, don’t feel shocked I told myself. Master Nathan usually scolded people who talked when they weren’t supposed to talk, yet he didn’t do anything to me.
“Where is Amaris and Luka!” Pinky demanded while getting up; Nathan’s glare made her sit down again. Luka, that was...why was I rebelling? Don’t rebel, don’t betray.
“Oh, I perfectly know where they are, but I will never tell you.” Nathan sat back down in the chair, crossing his legs. Don’t rebel now I told myself. You need every inch of your body to be covered in the word rebel my blood because that is the only thing you ever be. And, this would have been a time I would usually rebel, but not now. “But, because you asked I will show you Amaris.” He snapped his fingers for the billionth time this evening.
“S*IT!” All the rebels looked at Amaris in pure terror, and I thought she was more beautiful than before being Envy; like I was evil at the time you know?
“You are becoming more of a f*cker everyday.” Then Nathan glared at his only living son; don’t ask me what happened to the other two, wait Envy.
“Thanks for the compliment, Andru.” The black muck was all over Amaris, and a robot was being built around her, perfect.
“Are you going to do anything to us?” Vy asked. The people just wouldn’t stop questioning but the children, whom where too scared to move a move a muscle.
“Agents, give Suki to me and put the rest in the cells.”
“Yes, sir.” We were all his puppets, but who says being a puppet is a bad thing?
“And, commander Kimber and Dark Priests you can go.” Before I went out of the door, I was the last one, I looked at Suki. The look on her would scar me forever and ever; the look of real horror, she was scared of her own father. Stop scaring me ,daddy, stop it! I was still having memories of the old me and a completely different person.
“AHHH!” That was the last word I heard from the room that day, a scream.
“It is what we have to do kid.”
The next day:
I decided to go to the cells, it was my free day of the week and I needed something to do to kill time. So, I went there not knowing what would happen next.
“Hey b*tches.” At least I had my normal MARKA jumpsuit on, but it was too small for me, of course.
“What do you want?” I went to the one with pinky because they put the people in different cells in different cell blocks. What do you want kid scam before I hurt ya, Kimber.
“To talk Pinky.”
“Oh, like i’m going to talk to you.” Then I took out my gun, which I had a better grip now so I wouldn’t drop it and have to use a sword again.
“I want you to tell me something about Luka; I keep hearing his name in my head, why?”
“First, Luka is a girl with a boy name. Second, don’t call me Pinky my name is Thunder.”
“Yeah this tell me.” This girl was making me a little bit impatient, and I hated that.
“Well, I guess I can tell you because I don’t want my brains to be blown out today. She was part of our team, and MARKA took her three years ago and we never saw her again.” She laid down on her bed which was exactly like the one I had, weird. Mommy, can I have a bedtime story; I just had a nightmare. No. Please Mother.
“So, we took her, but that doesn’t explain why I hear her name in my freaking head.”
“You don’t remember this, but you were looking for her years on end with me. And, when we decided to look at MARKA...well they took you.” Thunder started to cry, the tough girl.
“You’re lying.”
“No, i’m not, Kimber.” Her eyes were turning red because of how much she was crying. Wimp, but I didn’t want myself to think that for some reason. Something didn’t feel right once again, oh great.
“That is commander Kimber to you.”
“I’m not one of you.”
“Who says you would never be?” I questioned while fixing my long brown hair. Who says he will ever be sober mother? Get out of my head VOICES; freaking f*cking voices that were driving me insane.
“Me.” That answer made me laugh like an idiot, but Thunder’s glare could stop everybody from giggling. She was dead serious about what she said. Crap. CRAP, RUN MARKA IS HERE!
“Forget it, Thunder, your team will never win.” I put the gun back into my pocket, and Thunder was watching my every move. She was an eagle and I was a mouse it felt like. But, I should have been the eagle not the freaking mouse, the weak creature.
“You can kill me, but you can never kill the hope of the people.” Really, that was easy to do.
“We can just kill everybody not part of us.” Take every kid here, guys, hurry before the crystals come. And, I moved uncomfortably; Thunder scared the crap out of me.
“Then more people in MARKA will turn up to be like Fatima and the old you.” Wait, I pondered, that couldn’t be possible, right? Then I remembered of a door that I never seen the inside of; maybe that door would have answers.
“I have to go.” I bolted out of the cell block because I needed to check it out before it was too late. My hips hurt, I didn’t care. The only thing I wanted then was answers not pleasure.
At the door:
It was wooden for some reason Nathan never told me, but that made the door stand out from the rest of the metal agency. So, I made sure nobody saw me enter because MARKA never had locked doors for some reason. Then I quickly opened the door and it made no sound, thank Mona. Wait, why was I thinking of Mona? Whatever, I just needed to know what was in here.
“Oh my god.” It was a woman, a woman called Luka. My microchip fell out; I remembered my past, my life. Luka was dead; there were a thousand knives pierced in her. No way she would have survived that, but seeing that made me know what exactly happened the unfaithful day.
I was on a helicopter:
There were other kids I knew with me, but I didn’t know their names. They just went to the same school as me, that was it. “What are you going to do with us?” A girl with red hair asked next to me.
“Whatever master said.” I looked out the side of the plane, nobody was coming to rescue us.
“Who is your master?” Another kid with sparkly blue eyes was staring at the guy in the same jumpsuit I was in.
“You will see little kid.” The guy crossed his arms, annoyed of all the kids with him. But, the pilot did not seem to mind our questions. I just looked at my hands, which were covered in blood. My whole family was murdered in front of me.
“Tell me now.” The foul stood up from his seat, headstrong and an idiot.
“I am not supposed to tell anybody kid.” The guy was still crossing his arms keeping a sharp eyes out for the rebel. “So, to pass the time everybody tell their life stories until they are gone forever.” He uncrossed his arms, and then pointed at me, the quiet one. “You first.”
“Me?”
“Yes you. I see greatness in you kid, and if you don’t you die.” Then he pressed the gun on the side of my head. I was scared of this guy, so I freely told my story.
“Well, i’m Kimber Greene the youngest of three kids. But, my father was addicted to meth and my mother was just crazy. My two other siblings committed suicide, so I was the last one left. And, well, they treated me like s*it. That is about it.” For a moment, I felt glad I got that dirty secret off my chest, but I realized they were probably going to kill me. They kind of did; they killed the real me. I was lucky that something was wrong with me.
Back to reality:
I knew my real purpose, but I felt somebody breathing down my neck, crap. So, I turned around to see the person. He had blonde hair, he was Nathan. Doomed, that what I was right at that moment. “You’re back on their side.”
“You are a real b*tch.” But, I couldn’t move and he was coming closer to me. He was going to kill me.
“Tell me something I don’t know.” He came closer and closer to me, yet Nathan didn’t have a weapon. Wait...he didn’t want to kill me, he wanted to rape me, no way. Then I got a plan, so I pretended to not care.
“Don’t you know everything?”
“Nobody knows everything,” he responded. This was a different Nathan; the one that told the truth and accepted his flaws. No, don’t make the potion control you again I told myself. Never. It was agony when I made it take over my body when Nathan kissed me, and that wasn’t the first time. In the past, I was his so-called ‘make out buddy’.
“Mona does.” And, this was a different me, the real me. The one that wasn’t his to take, not his puppet.
“She doesn’t know a thing.” His mouth went closer to my neck, pretend you don’t notice. I was right next to Luka’s decaying body, it smelled like s*it.
“Yes, she does.” Then he started to kiss my neck, plan working. When he was distracted, I pulled a knife from Luka, and stabbed him on the side.
“YOU B*TCH!” I quickly pulled him out of me, and ran out of the wooden door. But, it was locked, what? The doors locked people from the inside, a hidden cell. I was truely was doomed. So, I had no choice but to search Nathan.
“This is bad.” I reached him and started to put my hands in his pockets, a bag, a coin, and a pocket watch that was all I found.
“Got ya!”
“What?” Then, when I was getting up to search the rest of him, he pulled on my leg with such might. I tried to shake him off, but he wouldn’t let go.
“F*cker, get off of me!” But, then I sketched to Luka’s body to get another knife, yet Nathan saw that and let go of me to stop me which didn’t make sense until he nailed me to a wall.
“You can’t defeat me, Kimber.”
“Nathan, you may kill me but you would never kill hope.” He grabbed the knife I stabbed him with and put it closely to my neck; he just loved doing stuff with my ‘pretty’ neck.
“Really?” The knife was coming closer and closer to my neck, crap. This part made me scared; I was waiting to die.
“Yes, you don’t control me anymore. I die free, I die myself.” I couldn’t move, but he could. Blood was still coming out of the side of him. It was staining Nathan’s white shirt, and redness was going all over. Time to die a hero not a villain.
“If you say so.” Then Nathan got off of me, and walked over to my microchip, the thing that made all of this happen. If that wasn’t ever created I would have been living a normal life. I would of had a normal job, a big house, a loving husband, kid(s), and all the stuff normal people had. “Kimber, if you stay with us I will stare your life.”
“Who says I have a life anymore?” I answered. No way I was freely making him putting that thing back in my eye, no freaking way. Not even for a trillion dollars. I would just kill everybody, and that wouldn’t be good.
“Alright then, be mine and I won’t kill you.” Then I was slowly going towards Luka’s slowly.
“There is no way I’m doing any of those things.” After that, I looked at the bag that was in his pocket; there was only a little bit of dust leaf in it, thank god. I then stood still when I felt Nathan’s glare. “Thank god I’m wearing a freaking jumpsuit,” I whispered.
“Suite yourself.” He was still glaring at me with his eyes of rivers.
“You aren’t going to suite me.” Thank god, I was near Luka. So, I jumped over to her, and grabbed out a knife. “Now we have an equal fight.”
“There is no way you will ever win against me.”
“Well, I already stabbed you once.” There was no way I was letting him win, Nathan was the one that made the stupid decision to not kill me when I was completely defenseless.
“Then this is going to be like a show.” He licked, god he liked licking his weapons, which had his own blood and guts on it. Gross, that was what Nathan was.
“A show with a happy ending,” I said. Then a smile crossed my face. B*tch, I was good now so worry, I thought. After that, he lunged at me. I was ready for him.
“Go down, take a bow.” No. So, I protected my neck with my knife. But, I felt sudden pain in my left arm, and I dropped the knife in agony. This was it. I couldn’t fight or run or defend myself. There were footsteps in the hallway, and Nathan rushed to cover my mouth, but I bite him. He took his hand away from me, he was in agony.
“Do you really think I will do that?”
“Yes,” he responded while I got up. I tried to pick my knife with my right arm, but I couldn’t do so. It was time to accept the truth, I told myself, you are wounded, and you can’t do anything. When I was still trying to pick up my only hope, I felt something on me. “Are you sure you don’-”
“I’m not going to be your doll anymore.” That was the moment that I could not stop myself, I cried. It was time to accept the truth; your all precious virginity might be lost in this room. Then I turned around, and forced him off me with the little strength I had. Why wasn’t he failing or at least in plan? For Mona’s sake I stabbed him.
“You were.” He then stabbed my right arm and my legs and my hips. I was shocked I was alive. Nathan was going to kill me, and probably rape my dead body or rape me when I was about to die. There was nothing I could use now, no arms, no legs. Well, I still had them, but they were useless.
“That wasn’t me.”
“It was.”
“But, I wasn’t in control of my body. I was a completely different person.” After I said that, he brought out one of the cigars he had in his front pockets of his pants. Nathan blew the smoke right in my face.
“Yet, it was your body, your DNA, your blood.” He grabbed my chin, and looked at my neck, of course. Everybody loved my neck.
“I wasn’t commander Kimber, you were. Kissing yourself, crushing yourself, controlling yourself.” At this time, I found never left in life but to not get killed by Nathan is this room. So, I was egging him on. It was fun to egg people on. Their reactions were all different, but most of them replied angrily.
“Shut up, Kimber. Because, I can slowly kill you right now.” I could feel the knife barely on my neck.
“No way.”
“Die then.”
“Kill me if you want to.” I felt like I was in one of the videogames that you decide the person’s fate, Nathan was the player and I was the AI waiting for the answer given by the console remote. Would he press x: kill me or b: leave me for dead?
“Ha, enjoy your last moment because this is it.” The knife was starting to cut my skin lightly, and I did enjoyed the pain.
“I am.” Then I saw the door burst open, what? What was going on?
“Hi Nathan.” Suki was at the door, she was holding a gun. The gun was aimed at Nathan’s head.
“Help me.” I could hardly talk because of the knife going in my neck.
“You’re back, and now the others owe me ten dollars. Back to subject, Nathan don’t kill her or I will make sure a bullet is in your head.” She walked towards her father, and smiled. Why the heck was Suki smiling in this situation? I WAS DYING HERE!
“I’m f*cked here.” Nathan then disappeared, coward.
“Thank god.” My heart was beating crazily, but I didn’t give the f*ck. Suki was now 15, and she was stunning. Her blonde hair was straight and punky, and Suki’s grassy eyes pierced me.
“I’m a life saver now.” She looked like a blonde version of me with her off-shoulder shirt and ripped jeans, goth ha ha she joined the club. Her eyes had tons of eye shadow, mascara, and eyeliner on them; she was totally inspired by me.
“Yep, you are now carry me slave,” I joked.
“No.”
“Seriously, I kind of can’t walk.” Then she took me in her arms, and raised me. Gosh, this girl was strong.
Two hours later:
Now I was in a wheelchair, and I was stuck in one for the rest of my life. It wasn’t that bad like I could make people literally my slaves. The ship only had me and Thunder on it because the others were chickened out by ships now. “Hey girl, thinking to yourself again?” We were in the control room again, weird.
“Yeah, can I ask you something?” I had to ask her because I couldn’t do it because, well, I couldn’t freaking move. Rot in hell. I still was having the memories, and could not make sense out of some.
“Sure thing, Kimber. What is it? My sister’s baby, well she is named Maura. Horrible name, but I didn’t name her.” That wasn’t what I wanted to know, but it was still good to know.
“That’s not it.”
“Then what is it?” She was staring at me, waiting for an answer. Thunder probably thought the fact that she was now an aunt was more important than anything else. But, I knew she was going to freak when she heard my question.
“Can you-”
“Can I what?” Thunder interrupted. That girl was in a good mood because she had her best friend back and a little niece, yippee. Everything was good for her, yet not for me. Was I supposed to be happy? No.
“Can you...kill me?” Oh it came out, no turning back. There was never a point you could turn back on. Then the look on Thunder’s face was one of pure horror.
“What? There is no way i’m not letting anybody else die.” She crossed her arms, and that was when I noticed her gun. One bullet, that was it. I wasn’t suicidal, right? Somebody else was doing it for me. Thank god attempts were somehow legal; I could not take the pain anymore. Nathan always haunted my mind, Yuni always haunted my mind.
“It will be making a favor.” I looked at Thunder’s gun, I was eyeing it. Amaris would come and destroy the world, and it would be all my fault. Tyler killing himself was my fault, Yuni’s death was my fault, Amaris being Envy was my fault, the downfall of that once perfect family was all my fault.
“You would go to hell,” Thunder protested. Not like I cared about that fact whatsoever. Kill me, and make this demon get off of Earth.
“I am already the devil.” Then Thunder backed away in horror, but I kept my eyes on that gun.
“No, stay here I need you to be here.” Thunder started to cry and cry and cry...but it still didn’t change my mind. I needed to die, now.
“I can’t.” I used my arms to get away from there, and somewhere else.
“Stop, think about it.”My friend tried to catch up to me; I was too fast for her. I punched in the code for the door ,which was made of glass, and locked her in the control room. Then I went down the hallway of the living hell.
“Time to end this.” I pressed the code again so the door would open. The endless sky was under my feet, and the plane was going about two thousand miles per hour. Wind was hitting my face, but the stupid alarm was ringing and saying ‘DOOR OPENED’, f*ck. I continued on, ignoring the alarm, and fell out the plane. Why? I only thing I ever wanted was to be happy.
In the face of death
It was a merry afternoon until Fatima, Suki, Kirami, Vy, and Hail gotten a distress call from their friend Thunder. “Hello Thunder,” Suki welcomed while crossing her arms. She was trying to be more like her idol, a woman named Kimberly Greene.
“Guys, Kimber is going nuts. She locked me in the control room just because I wouldn’t kill her and, oh s*it, I think she is going to kill herself now.” Thunder’s voice revealed that she was scared out of her mind, and was about to pee herself.
“DOOR OPENED. DOOR OPENED.” An alarm went on and on about the door opening, and it annoyed the crap out of Suki until she knew what was happening. That is when she noticed it would be too late to do anything to save her beloved hero from herself. Suki broke into tears, and so did everybody else but Fatima and the babies Maura and Hawk, what Suki liked to call Fatima and Kirami’s child because the actual name was too hard to say in her opinion.
“Why?”
“She wanted to be happy.”
