Washington, US, Real World
Okay, I have no idea what I'm doing, so I'll start with an introduction of myself. My name is Ruth Rivers. I am a small, quiet, 15 year-old girl. I have brown hair and blue eyes. I decided to write a journal about my life after today, which was pretty weird.
I got up in the morning like usually, and then I made breakfast (toast) for myself before leaving for school. I go to Spanaway Lake. School went normally, but after school, something odd happened. I like taking walks to the nearby Walmart (my parents totally don't know!) and daydreaming, or as I like to call it, imagining different scenarios and imaginary worlds. Anyway, as I was walking back, a black car pulled up next to me and a man in a lab coat rolled down the window. Obviously, I got a bit freaked out. I mean, who wouldn't? The world isn't a very nice place.
"Are you Ms. Rivers?" He had a quiet voice, almost like he wasn't used to talking to people very much.
"Um… Y-yeah."
"My name is Dr. Gospender. I represent the Scientists of Technological Advancement (STA). A few months ago, you singed up to help with experiments, correct?"
I thought about it. I did remember signing up, but since I was never contacted, I decided that it was a scam and forgot about it. I nodded at the man.
"We would like you to come in and test out a new virtual-reality device. Are you free tomorrow?"
I really wanted to help, but there was school tomorrow. I gave him my answer, and he surprised me with his reply.
"That's actually not a problem. We're a government-run organization, so we can get you out of school without any questions being asked."
Wow. Yeah, I was pretty shocked. It was awesome, though, so I agreed to help. Once I got back home, I decided to write this journal. Now, I'm lying in my bed wondering what will happen tomorrow. I will definitely keep track of everything that happens.
