A spark, and the smoke that follows.

I duck beneath the twisted body of the wreck.


A... SECURITY (?) ROBOT — "ACCESS DENIED. FOREIGN ENTITY SPOTTED - Its voice jitters—literal electric spasms crackle through its speaker - PLEASE MOVE AWAY BEFORE VIOLENCE NEEDS TO BE USED".


War [Amazing: Failure] — . . . Yet you already used it you fucking-


Skate — Don’t listen to the anger-junkie. Look under your feet—see that part of the plane? Weirdly convenient. . .A little too convenient, actually. Let’s treat this like a puzzle, hm?


War [Horrible: Success] — Why are you even thinking about this?

Puzzle not puzzle. It's a robot, and you are made of -- burning-fucking-magic-fire -- Bullets are nothing to you. Not to mention, the robot itself is barely standing on its own feet, one jab and it's gone. The only puzzle here is why you're hesitating. 


Skate [Decent: Success] — You're confident, huh? The bullet could be made of magic. And we better not test it. We distract the robot. Use the rod


From the brief glance before the shot you've caught that it doesn't have any motion censors. Perhaps it uses sound to move? Throwing it in the ocean for a chance of it following doesn't sound. . . *that* unlikely. Hm. . . I need to think about this more.


War [Horrible: Success] — Or you just hurl it at its face.

Bam! There's a distraction 


→ 1. Let's see. . . [Pick up the rod]


[ITEM ACQUIRED: BROKEN ROD]

              

→  1. [War: Bad 8 ] - Throw the rod in the water

2. [Skate: Perfect 30] - Think of something else. . .

3. [War: Alright 11] - Throw it in the robots face


... CHECK: SUCCESS ✓

After a brief arc through the air, the rod splashes into the sea. The robot, stuttering, aims at the source. It shuffles closer, until- " ZAP! CO-CO-CODE: RE E E E. . . OFF PROTOTO TO COL. . .HURTSHURTSHUR-" It turns off. 


Skate — That… That didn’t feel right. The robot… could feel. It hurt, Sto. It *hurt*


→ 1. I. . . 


Skate — No, no. I'm not. . . *Angry*. You didn't really know. I get it. Next robot - different approach, okay? We now know more, and that's good. 


I breath out and walk right. 




DANGER

Trouble!!

* i....... am the will of your effORTS !
* succumb to yOUR fate.....
* It is the o-

==========================================

* You freeze. It's " like watching a car crash in slow motion".
* The trident pierces the dark, burning bright, burning RED.
* Shock follows the impact.
* You fall back, back into the darkness of wires and metal around you but you keep falling you keep falling backwards into the nothing and the pitch black and it never ends and you never stopped falling and you never started, time  
   becomes a concept, the concept becomes a legend, the legend becomes a myth.

* The woman in front of you is gone, she was the metal and wires you left when you fell, there's nothing left but PURE ELECTRIC DETERMINATION.
* Before you is another woman, one you recognize, for she is you and you are her, because you are the fall and she is the cold dead cement, and you think "the night is young to die tonight"  and you are sure of the validity of those words, 
   because you're reading them on a screen, and that screen is your world and the screen is you.

* And you are so much more than you can comprehend.
* The woman smiles and says "To kill for yourself is murder" you smile at the thought,"To kill for your government is heroic" you laught at the sentiment, "To kill for entertainment is harmless" you heard these words before and she keeps  
   going and going and it doesn't seem like it has end or a beggining, it's just words and phrases and letters and numbers.
* It's you.

* It's ELECTRIC DETERMINATION!
* And your mind was made in it's image.

=========================================


Energeia

Energeia is a word based upon ἔργον (ergon), meaning 'work'. It is the source of the modern word 'energy' but the term has evolved so much over the course of the history of science that reference to the modern term is not very helpful in understanding the original as used by Aristotle. It is difficult to translate his use of energeia into English with consistency. Joe Sachs renders it with the phrase 'being–at–work' and says that "we might construct the word is-at-work-ness from Anglo-Saxon roots to translate energeia into English". Aristotle says the word can be made clear by looking at examples rather than trying to find a definition. Two examples of energeia in Aristotle's works are pleasure and happiness (eudaimonia). Pleasure is an energeia of the human body and mind whereas happiness is more simply the energeia of a human being a human."

I'm not sure this helps much.

* And the memories are flooding back one after another, and you are sure you lived through all this somewhere before, but not with this scale, not with this importance.
* But this matters and it mattered and it will matter, and there is no start or finish.
* There's you.
* And one day it stopped.
* And you questioned what they wanted.

Prosecution:  "Do you feel like a hero now?" 
       you smile and you keep smiling and you laugh through the tears and the pain and you laugh, you keep laughing.

   Defendant: "You are still a good person."
               you know this and yet you know it a lie, the truth becomes a lie and really, a lie is a myth, and that myth was once a legend and that legend was a concept.

"To kill for yourself is murder.
     To kill for your government is heroic. 
         To kill for entertainment is harmless."


                                                                                     and that lie was time.
