September 1973, Cambridge, Massachusetts September 1973, Cambridge, Massachusetts. Dr. Richard Ericson of MIT, in partnership with the US military worked on blueprints to technology capable to change the all aspects of the planet, dubbed "the Cambridge project".
"Ericson!" shouted General Wilson. "How is the project going?""Pretty well, sir. We have built the first machine able to change the structure of atoms. It is able to create anything from scratch. We could create a new animal species if we wanted to". "Very good" replied Wilson. "Those commies won't know what hit them. Keep up the good work".
Over the course of three years, Dr. Ericson assembled a team of computer engineers to test the advanced technology. In a federal site close to the MIT campus laid a 2000 square meter building housing the completed atomic manipulator. "We have built satellites capable of using the atomic field manipulator to build a parallel world. This 'digital world' will be connected to our world, allowing American troops to move quickly around the planet, giving us the ability to hide from any communist attack. We will now attempt to create this world using the technology we assembled. Johnson, please execute the software your team has completed.".Dr. Johnson started the master computer. A beam of energy shot straight into outer space.
Three months later, Dr. Ericson was supervising his team of engineers working on the Cambridge project. "We have created intelligent life in the digital world, sir" Dr. Johnson said. We designed the bodies to look like monsters from a Lord of the Rings novel. "Johnson…" "What is it sir". "If we crated intelligent life, they may soon evolve to have the ability to escape our control…" "Dr. Ericson!" shouted one of the engineers. "We have lost contact with the digital world. These monsters have broken free of our control." Ericson hit his face and sighed.
The digital world evolved at a very rapid pace. By the early 1990s, the monsters have evolved powers of their own. The monsters evolved from the elements of fire, earth, air and water. They had the ability to contact earth, but not vice versa. Soon some of the monsters were able to feel emotions such as love, joy, hate and anger. Some soon experienced the desire to control the entire world, while others wanted a republic. Ten legendary warriors soon battled for the republic of the world in which they lived in. The humans formed monsters fought against the totalitarian beasts. One monster named Lucemon brought peace to the two groups originally siding with the republicans, but soon became corrupt and plunged the digital world into his dictatorship. The legendary warriors were able to overthrow Lucemon and sealed him inside the Dark area. They soon passed laws for a peaceful society. It was the job of three Celestial monsters – Ophanimon, Seraphimon and Cherubimonto keep Lucemon in his jail. The legendary warrior died in the process of sealing Lucemon in his jail.
The US government took steps to make sure that this world was never discovered by any means necessary, including jailing any citizen who the digital monsters contacted with and torturing them.
