Harold and I spent the rest of the day running tests until the evening, but they all returned the sa. No matter how many tis we ran the God Frequency, the results returned with two-thirds of the earth's population being deleted.
There was no better term for what would happen to the people. The frequency would tear them apart at the atomic level, causing their bodies to explode in particles, but there was sothing.
“The only thing that might be our saving grace are the ghosts that will be left. From what the tests show, there will be sothing left of each person who is deleted. I don’t know what we can do with that information since we only just discovered what this even is. There are too many unknowns and not enough ti to test them!” Harold complained as I leaned back in my chair, scrubbing my hands over my face.
“We just need to postpone whatever he is trying to do. There has to be a way that we can do sothing about the Ghosts they will leave. I will confront Helsin about this and beg that he give us so more ti. I am sure I can convince Mark to talk to him,” I said, but Harold threw up his hands.
“Harold is part of the problem! That snake has been feeding information to Helsin since you got here! Why can’t you see this?!” Harold growled.
“Let’s focus on what is important right now. You and I have a job, and we will fix this. We have to,” I said, staring at the screen with the test results on it.
“What did you break this ti?”
“Probably a keyboard that he used to hit Harold with.”
“Does that an that we missed the action?”
I turned to see a group of girls I had co to know very well. Jilly, Mary, Lizy, Veronica, and Katie were all standing outside the doorway to our lab.
“How long do you plan on hiding in here? You know that we are having a party, right?” Jilly asked, walking in to co and sit on my lap.
“No fraternizing in the work areas!” Harold complained, and Jilly laughed.
“Don’t be such a prude. Trinity is waiting for you, so leave Zack with us, and go get presentable,” Veronica said with a grin, making Harold blush.
“Well, I guess I sound, umm, get going,” Harold said but then turned to look at seriously. “Don’t forget what I told you.”
“Like I could forget,” I said as Harold left the room, and the other four girls ca in.
“What is wrong?” Mary asked as she ca over to .
“Hard to explain, and it would just kill the mood. We will deal with it. So, what is this about a party?” I asked to get off the topic, but Jilly gave a look.
“Are you sure? You two looked a lot more gloomy than normal. Is this to do with what you are working on? I heard there was major progress made in your departnt, and that is why we are having a party. We thought we would co and congratulate you two, but you both looked like soone had run over your dog,” Jilly said, and I nodded.
“There is a lot I don’t know yet, but all of you will be safe. You girls and the others were the first ones I ran through the simulation,” I said, and Lizy stepped forward.
“Is that what is on your screen right now?! You have to tell this is a failed test, right?!” Lizy exclaid.
Lizy was in charge of the integration software that would link us to the ga. I don’t think she quite understands what her program was ant to honestly do, but now she was getting a glimpse.
“That is what will happen if the gatron Pulse is turned on with our God Frequency plugged into it. We have based our calculations on your software that Helsin has been rushing. The nature of your software has been kept from us until Harold, and I discovered the right frequency. Only now can we actually see what it is going to do. In order to change that, you would need to build new software, and we would have to find the frequency to match it,” I explained, and Lizy sank down into Harold’s chair.
“Can’t you just delete your work?!” Jilly asked, but I gave her a look.
“What good would that do? He already has all of it. Nothing we can do at this point is going to stop him. Harold and I are now focused on damage control since the deleted ones will leave a Ghost behind. That is what I am calling it, but I don’t know what they are exactly. There will be sothing like an after image of the people killed, so we are trying to figure out how we can save them,” I explained, rubbing both hands over my face in frustration.
The room went silent, and I couldn’t bla them.
I had just explained how our boss was about to kill two-thirds of the world's population. On top of that, we were the tools that Helsin would use to achieve this.
“What can we do?” Mary asked, and I tapped Jilly’s ass for her to get up.
“For now, go to this party, and try to act normal. Tomorrow, Harold and I are going to go into overdrive to find a solution to this,” I said, but then the lights turned off, and red lights started flashing as a siren started to blare through the entire facility.
“You don’t think that he is going to do it already?! The ga isn’t even finished yet!” Lizy exclaid as she jumped out of her seat, but I was already running out the door.
There wasn’t a single part of that didn’t think that was precisely what he was doing, but I wasn’t going to let this happen. I created this, not him, and I wasn’t going to let him kill all those people!
