Pneuma met me at the foot of the steps with the same level of joy that she had when we met at the front door. “Madame President! What a glow up! And in record time too!” Angel nodded his head in approval and offered his arm for balance. I waved him off, “I think I…
I forced more air out of my lungs and watched massive bubbles float back up to the surface. Beyond the pressure building up in my ears, it was nearly serene down here. Gravity felt both light and heavy at the same time. I embraced the pressure and crossed my legs on the bottom of the…
Angel and I stepped out of Dr. Dhrish’s office, a room full of high hopes behind us. “That was a very nice thing you did there, Brittany,” Angel said with a smile. “That’s exactly what I would have done.” “Wait… you’re okay with not processing my glasses through the normal process?” I stepped down the…
“What do you mean I haven’t been speaking English this entire time?” I asked as Dr. Dhrish escorted us out of his office and into his reception room. Seeing words continue to float around the room, it was hard to focus on what was going on around me, so I slightly slid my index finger…

“So that was the first security footage from the physical realm that came up.” Misty’s voice interrupted. “What did you want to see next?” “Pull up the one where Madame President over here meets my brother for the first time.” Through the VR goggles, I could see Angel strolling on the treadmill strapped in and…
“Help me remember what happened right before I lost my memory,” I asked Misty. “Do you have footage of what was going on then?” “Ah, yes, I can do that for you! Hang on one moment. Uploading the scene…right…now…” Instead of a VR Room, I was instantly in my previous two-bedroom apartment. We had converted…
