Chapter 15

Tony entered the sealed room that housed Rita. She was apprehensive, not scared. She had been over the procedure with Ross and Rita so many times, she knew it by heart. In the center of the room sat the chair. She walked over to it and circled around it. Placing her hand on the seat, she pressed down and felt the padding beneath the upholstery. She knew Rita and Ross were waiting, but she wasn’t going to sit in the chair until it felt right. She caressed the skullcap, feeling the metal. It felt so cold and lifeless. Through this, she was going to send her mind into a machine. Once inside, she was going to seek out and destroy an assortment of electrons and protons which were like cancer cells in the human body.

Walking around to the front of the chair, she sat down on the edge of it. She wiggled her hips back and forth. It felt like a regular chair, only it had more padding. Easing slowly back into the chair, she put her hands on the arms. Really, it was quite comfortable.

Tilting her head, she looked at the underneath of the cap. Thousands of sensors circled it, starting from the outside going inward. She heard a very faint buzzing sound coming from it. Reaching up, she grabbed both sides of the cap and lowered it slowly until it rested on her head. Instantly, she felt weightless, like she was floating in a soupy void. In the distance, she saw the faint outline of a light. Gliding toward the light, she felt a presence on either side of her. In her head, she heard, “You’re doing fine, Tony. The light ahead is the entrance to us. Go in and look around until you become oriented. If you need us, just yell.”

Alone again, she rapidly approached the light. She was through it before she knew it. She felt a strange sensation; it was like walking through an invisible membrane. It didn’t have substance, but still could be felt.

Ahead of her, what looked like roadways opened up, going into what she thought of as a city. Standing there, she saw pulses of light traveling down them. Each pulse was a bit of information traveling where it was needed. The pulses reminded her of cars on a one-way street. They traveled down to the next intersection, where some of them turned off onto side streets, while others went straight ahead. Every so often, the pulses would stop and then would race up and down the side streets.

Entering the flow of traffic, she passed through the first intersection. All at once, she stopped and couldn’t move. There was a sensation of no weight. Ahead of her, she saw pulses racing through the intersection from the side streets. She was moving again, now she had a sense of weight. Not much, but a little.

Quicker than she thought was possible, she was stopped again. She could see she was going to have to think in different terms.
