REMINDERS

They have landscaping bots on the compound. They’ve had them for years. And they’re much more efficient and productive than any human gardener. But Dr. A wanted to make an example of his former business partner, previously one of the most gifted scientists on the Diotech compound. He wanted everyone to see what happens when you cross him.

No one is safe from punishment. Not even the cofounder of the company.

I doubt anyone is as disturbed by the sight of him as I am though.

Dr. Havin Rio was the lead scientist of the Genesis Project, the official launch of the Objective, and the project that brought me to life on June 27, 2114. And later Kaelen, on December 19, 2115. But Dr. Rio was long gone by the time Kaelen was created.

He was more than just my creator, though. He lived with me in the cottage for the first months of my life. At one point, I even referred to him as my father.

Then he committed the ultimate betrayal.

He helped set me free.

Just like Lyzender, the boy in my memories, he developed feelings for me. As though I were his real daughter. And he put those feelings before the Objective.

Now he pays the price every day.

The memory starts to billow inside of me. Like a tropical storm brewing, bending the trees until they look like they’re about to snap.

“You saved my life,” I whisper in his ear as I hold the tiny vial in my hands. The transession gene that would allow me to travel through time. The key to my escape.

I feel his body sag. He wraps his arms tightly around me and holds me. “It was the least I could do.”
