Chapter: 1
"Well, here it is…" Siegfried sighed.
The long-haired blond man stood outside a building with the company name "Aperture Science" printed boldly on the door. The building was located oddly in the middle from nowhere and away from civilization.
Siegfried had just lost his job over at Abstergo Industries, which pleased him quite well. He detested the working conditions at Abstergo, primarily working with the Animus machine. He spent several hours a day lying down on the Animus while his employees probed through his and ancestors DNA searching for an artifact they only referred to as the "Piece of Eden". He was never told what the "Piece of Eden" did, what it was used for, or why his employers urgently needed it.
Unfortunately losing his job meant that he no longer could pay Hilde's child support.
Siegfried and Hilde had only met 17 years before and shortly became close friends. And soon afterwards they began a rather intimate relationship. Sadly however after only three years the relationship came to an end, a month later Hilde revealed to Siegfried that she was pregnant with his child. Siegfried became furious with her and denied that could possibly be the father. However he came to realize that it was very possible he could be the father. Siegfried decided to do the responsible thing and provide for his child and become the father figure his child needed
"… It's time for my first day at work." Siegfried said to himself.
Without any hesitation Siegfried opened the door and entered the Aperture Science building.
