Rebirth
Nov 1, 1988
TRIGGER
They’re calling you from heaven
To walk towards the light
Hey, wait! This time it’s not too late
To stop this ship from sinking
Don’t go! So much you didn’t know
It’s never what you’re thinking
— from The Butterfly Effect - “Aisles of White”
ECO
Fodder opened his eyes into the new world. He was reborn.
Father held the child in his hands, tears streaming down his face. Mother, beside him, was passed-out from exhaustion.
“My son, I am so sorry. I had to do it. I had to. Just one more time. One LAST time.”
“This is it. You are the final test. I know that you have what it takes. You are me, after all.”
“You can have everything you’ve ever wanted. You can fix this shit hole world we live in. You have every trait known to mankind in your DNA; you have all of the tools that you need to do this. You will not need us to survive.”
“Your journey will be a difficult one. You will be alone. You will have good traits - and ALL of the bad traits.”
“But you are smart. Do not worry. You will stay the worst of your tendencies. I will protect you.”
“You are the Chosen One. Do not forget that.”
“You will not see me again. But I am here. And I am watching.”
“Make me proud.”
And with those words, Father was gone. Mother was gone. In their place, only ghosts remained.

ECHO
I’m all alone on the road
High water tide underneath the flood
In deserts of dust - if I must - I will stand
These are my promises
I hope you’re winning the war
To make everything like it was before
All that we were we can still be again
I swear
