Fear grows in darkness; if you think there's a bogeyman around, turn on the light.
~Dorthy Thompson.
***
A screen with a picture of light-blue and white, like a security camera lays on the side of the road. It sends out the same message it has been for five years. But, now someone is watching.
On the screen, a female adjusted the angle of the camera and sits in the chair, her long dark hair matted with sweat. She clears her thought, wipes her eyes and begins "Fear. We all have it, deep in the recesses of our minds, it lays in wait. Waiting to come out."
***
In the future, a government known as the Link Rouges require everyone to obtain a chip implanted in the cerebral cortex, located right under the forehead. This chip allows the LR to control the masses, forcing them to live as slaves and brainwashing them.
***
The screen speaks again. "As a result, those who are 'wired' have a small scar on the middle-right of the forehead. Can you see it, my scar? I've been wired, but mine's malfunctioned- for the better. Those who have the operating chip are enhanced, and must obey their Shade Masters. The rebellion is starting. But now... now-" The female looks off the screen, shocked, and her pace quickens.
"Look, take this recording to the Steel, they're the resistance, get this to them. The calculations are all there, now go!"
There are shouts, sounds of a struggle, and a quick shot of a black face with blood red eyes snarling at the camera.
Then there is static.
***
Fear has come out, the chip is wearing down the walls of our the jails we keep our fears in. The chip is malfunctioning, and our fears are becoming real. monsters, ghosts, ex-spouses.
They're coming for us in the form of Shades, and near nothing can stop them.
Which side are you on?
