Chapter Seventeen

Two more full-immersion capsules have been constructed by the time I return to the lab the next day. They aren’t filled with the gel-like nanoreceptors yet, but I don’t imagine it will be long. The fact that they were constructed so fast must mean that the workers were up all night. Benjamin certainly isn’t wasting any time.

“Good morning, Esil. Ready for an exciting day?” Benjamin asks me. For once, his tie is slightly askew and his eyes seem a little groggy. He’s normally so put together. I wonder if the project is taking its toll on him. Whatever secrets he’s keeping about the real reason behind full-immersion. I want to ask him what’s going on, but after my talk with Aleesia yesterday, I think it might be best for me to keep my comments to myself for the time being.

I nod and go find Marty, who is waiting for me atop the immersion capsule. He attaches the sensors to the normal places around my chest and head, but this time, he has something new. He holds a giant needle attached to a thin tube that’s filled with a pinkish liquid.

“What’s that?” I ask. That’s a big needle and I hope it isn’t going in my body.

“It’s an IV. We’re testing something out today. The idea is to feed your body nutrients while you are logged in so that you don’t pass out when we pull you out like last time.”

Marty takes my arm in his hand. I close my eyes and a sharp pain shoots up my arm. When I open them, I try to look anywhere other than the source of the pain. My eyes find Aleesia in the viewing deck. She gives me a thumbs-up and then disappears back to her work.
