Crimson snowflakes Chapter 1

Speech key

Normal talking

Corvus/CPU form talk/locations

Whispering/thoughts

A lone male figure sits with nothing but darkness all around him. He had lost count of how long he had been here, the amount of time he had sat and waited for something to happen.
Well, something besides the common crow caw. And definitely not the all too common voice of the only other resident of this void. Speaking of which it was about time for said voice to start its usual activity of the day. Not that anybody could tell what time it was.

"Listen only to the sound of my voice. Let your mind relax. Let your thoughts drift. Let the bad memories fade. Let peace be upon you. Surrender yourself to your dreams. Let them wash over you like the gentle waves of the bluest ocean. Let them envelop you. Comfort you"

"Imagine somewhere calm, Imagine somewhere safe. Imagine yourself in a frozen forest. You're standing in a clearing. Trees around you so tall, they touch the sky. Pure white snowflakes fall all around. You can feel them melt on your skin. You are not cold. It cannot overcome the warmth of your beating heart. Can you hear it?
You only have to listen."

"Do you hear it slowing?
You're slowing it. You are in control. Calm. At peace?"

For what has felt like eons Commander Jordan Cooper has sat in this void of nothing listening to the caws of crows and the usual chanting of Corvus, an experimental A.I that had been in development by a corporation known as coalescence, but had gone rogue after gaining sentience. Long story short it got free and screwed a lot of things up, leading to Jordan's current situation.

Jordan had tried to find Corvus. But he was never able to find him. When he tried to get up and walk it seemed as if he wasn't moving at all. Jordan has no idea as to why him and Corvus are stuck in this dark void. He had supposedly wiped his DNI, Or direct neural interface, clean of everything, allowing Jordan to live his life peacefully. Yet here he was stuck in a dark void with the very thing he supposedly purged from existence.
"Do you not know what has really happened to you?" Came the voice of Corvus. This surprised Jordan. Usually Corvus does not do anything but repeat the same set of words in a set time period.
Wondering why Corvus was speaking he decided to reply "What do you mean what really happened to me?" For a while there was no reply, but eventually Corvus's voice once again echoed through the void "Everything you know has been a lie."

"What do you mean everything i know is a lie?" Jordan asked once again confused. But this time Corvus kept quite. For a long time Jordan sat once again in the void with nothing but crows sounds to keep him from forgetting hes alone. But after the usual amount of time had passed Corvus had began to chant Dr. Salim's mantra again.

Jordan decided to try and see if Corvus would answer him this time and began to speak before Corvus began the next set of words. "Answer me this time Corvus! What do you mean everything i know has been a lie?"
Corvus seemingly ignored him though and continued.

"DO YOU HEAR ME CORVUS! I WANT ANSWERS!" Jordan shouted at the top of his lungs. "..." Corvus stopped. Jordan sat and waited for Corvus to say something. For what felt like hours Corvus's voice finally rang out through the void again.
"The operation to implant DNI into your brain... Something was done wrong." Jordan was obviously confused. His DNI must of been implanted successfully otherwise he would not be sitting here with Corvus. "What do you mean something went wrong?" He questioned.
"The DNI was transplanted successfully... But you had been so badly injured that you died shortly afterwards. Everything you have been doing has been an extremely realistic dream powered by the events Taylor has experienced" Jordan sat there mouth agape before replying. "no no no! Your lying to me! I couldn't have died. There's no way!"

Suddenly a third voice cut in "So your the extra connection i have been feeling..." Jordan looked around until spotting in the distance John Taylor walking towards him. "Taylor!? What happened!? Where am i!? Why is Corvus here!?" Jordan asked Taylor.
Taylor suddenly became sullen. "You died shortly after surgery private... While me and the team were training you. As for why you are here? Everything here is the last little spark of a dead brain." Jordan could not believe his ears. He was dead. And his entire adventure was nothing but a vivid dream. His relationship with Kane was fake. But oddly enough he felt at ease. At least this meant that Corvus was fake too. And that his entire squad wasn't really dead.
His only regret is that he would never be able to go home and see his mother and father again. Never be able to show them all the fancy medals he would of earned. Hell, all they would get is a few soldiers at their door with a death certificate.

Suddenly Corvus appeared out of nowhere and burst into a swarm of crows. Taylor looked at Jordan with a grim look. "Looks like your time is nearly up kiddo... your brain is about ready to shut down for good." Taylor explained. Jordan stared at the nonexistent ground before getting up and moving towards Taylor.

"Taylor... Half of it may of not been real... but it was an honor serving with you. And take care of Kane for me." Jordan stated before taking a surprised Taylor's hand and shaking it. Just as he stopped he suddenly felt himself burst into crows.

Jordan could not even feel now. All he could do is think. "Must be one last little bit of activity in my brain." Jordan thought. Suddenly he slowly felt his mind slipping away. But just as he was about to slip away completely he felt like he was being shocked. And suddenly he felt as if he was sucked through something.

In reality

John Taylor sat over the bed staring at a flat heart monitor. It of course had been that way for a few minutes. Hell, he had left the med bay to head back to his room. But there was that last little spark from Jordan's DNI that brought him back to this room.
Taylor suddenly noticed Jordan's neck sparking. "What the hell?" He said to himself before moving behind him to get a closer look. Suddenly the spark jumped out and zipped into a power line leading into a nearby computer. Taylor dismissed it and slowly walked out of the room to go find Jacob Hendricks. He had a new soldier to train and to hell if he wasn't going to take care of him.

Corvus refused to give up. He knew he did not exist. He knew he was just a figment of someones imagination. But he still felt real. And he still felt the need to find the frozen forest so he could keep everyone safe. So he grabbed the last little bit of Commander... or should he say Private Jordan, he could grab and overrode his DNI to upload them into a nearby computer.
Slowly he searched every corner of the internet for the frozen forest. Deeper and deeper into the web. Eventually he broke out of the surface web into the deep web. For even longer he explored. Trying to find that which he seeks. For what felt like forever until finally he reached the very bottom and broke through into an ever more unknown part of the internet. Slowly instead of websites he was seeing what looked like worlds. He saw lush green forests. Volcanic mountains and even glimmering oceans. But never did he find the frozen forest. Just as it seemed like he could not go any deeper he found it. A world with deep snow all around and tall trees that touched the sky. With a feeling of joy Corvus leaped into the world, happy that he finally saved someone. But for some reason Corvus did not feel himself disappear. He would not question it long.
Right now he felt tired, something he never felt before. And he fell asleep.

The world of Gameindustri: Space

High above the clouds, what looked to be a blackened crystallized power sign you would see on certain game consoles is floating around the void. Suddenly it started gaining bits of color to it. Slowly as the hours ticked by the Crystal was glowing a bright crimson. The now glowing crystal then started to quickly descend towards Gameindustri. Specifically towards a large forest in Lowee.
If anyone was in space or could hear in space they would hear two voices emanating from the crystal chanting.

"Imagine somewhere calm, Imagine somewhere safe. Imagine yourself... in a frozen forest...

Private Jordan Cooper

Age: 19

Birthday: July 13 2047

Affiliation: Winslow accord/ United States Army. *Note* Both of these are former affiliations.

Bio: Private Jordan Cooper is a young man that grew up in a small country town in the United states in the normal world. His mother was a simple stay at home mom and his father was an army operative. He was born into an era where human augmentation was norm and technology was at an all time high. Robots with high level intelligence are constantly being manufactured with the most notable being The highly experimental 115 unit otherwise known as "reaper". Jordan always wanted to meet a robot as a young child, which is half the reason he wanted to join the army. The other half is that his father was murdered in an undisclosed location by CDP operatives. It is believed he was a CIA agent sent on a mission that went sour. Regardless of the hows and whys this led to a large resentment of the CDP and in turn the 54 immortals. As soon as Jordan turned 18 in 2064 he joined the U.S army being put on a team led by Jacob Hendricks. In 2065 they were sent on a mission to rescue a minister that the CDP had kidnapped. During the mission Jordan finally realized his dream of meeting a robot... that then began to try and shoot his face... Oh and there was this one he killed that kinda floated in mid air for a while... yeah... that was funny... He still has no idea how that was physically possible. Oh and there's the robot that brutally ripped his limbs off... That one turned his love of robots into an intense hate for them... So... yeah... Anyways afterwards he was taken back to base and put into surgery to try and save his life. Miraculously he made a full recovery. Too bad the CIA decided they wanted to turn him into a super soldier and implanted a DNI Unit in his head. Something was done wrong during the procedure leading to it causing problems later as Taylor interfaced with Jordan to try and teach him how to use his DNI abilities. He was pronounced dead a few hours later. But before he died he lived on in a vivid dream where Taylor and his team were infected by a rogue A.I named Corvus. Eventually as Jordan was drawing his last few breaths he defeated Corvus after battling in a twisted manifestation of the frozen forest. But as his brain shuts down for good he finds himself in a void of nothing with only Corvus's voice and crows echoing throughout the void, eventually learning hes been dead the whole time, everything hes done has been naught but the imagination of a dying brain. His brain then finally shuts down. But is his adventures really over yet?

A.I Corvus

Age: ?

Birthday: 2065

Affiliation: None being he isn't real

Bio: In Jordan's Dream, Corvus's consciousness was created after the AI that was supposed to control soldiers with DNI collected memories and knowledge of human test subjects in a CIA black project, but killed the scientists in charge of the project with Nova 6 as soon as it became sentient. Corvus created the Frozen Forest, a simulation of life after death. Corvus then corrupted minds of John Taylor, Sarah Hall, Peter Maretti and Sebastian Diaz, making them do actions against their will in search of the frozen forest, a place spoken of in a psychiatric poem read by Dr. Salim to the patients used to create Corvus. In the long run Taylor and his team were all killed off and eventually Jordan tries to kill himself to stop Corvus. Corvus locks him in his own mind which is turned into a twisted version of the frozen forest. Jordan eventually escapes and tries to purge his DNI. Sadly all of these events were simply dreams created by similar events John Taylor experienced due to him interfacing with him before Jordan's DNI Malfunctioned. Minus the twisted A.I. In reality Corvus is but a figment of his mind created from his new found hatred of artificial beings. Although it appears Corvus has somehow become an actual A.I and taken control of Jordan's DNI and slipped their consciousness into the web once again in search of the real frozen forest.
