2: a nonadaptive structural modification –Merriam-Webster Dictionary
"How about I sleep a little longer and forget all this nonsense" –Franz Kafka, Metamorphosis
David Castillo was human before he was broken. A part of him still is but a silicon-based lifeform shares
his body. As long as he lives so does his symbiont, SARACEN. The numerous changes made to
his basic physiology force him to accept he is not the same man he once was. Despite the changes,
he still has the same unrelenting enemies.
Director Karl Jantzen, head of regional covert operations
for The Company has earmarked him for death. Jantzen is an ambitious man who knows
no boundary when it comes to eliminating threats to his position. David, alive, can testify
to his failures, therefore he must be terminated. Dr. Gerald Frankel refuses to relinquish the hope of
using him as the centerpiece of his extensive research on AI/Human interfaces. David is living proof
of his genius and the validation of his work. Ergo, he must be captured--returned under his control for
further research. Even dead, the chipsets implanted in his body could prove invaluable to his project.
David and SARACEN will never be free of pursuit as long as they live. He bitterly acknowledges,
in a sense, David Castillo is already dead; officially, he no longer exists. David Saracen, a synthesis of two
separate entities, one carbon-based lifeform, the other silicon-based, is no longer broken. His tormentors
have yet to realize the full extent of what he has become. But they soon will!
Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war;
That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial. – William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar
