Chapter 1: The Accident
Anthony Peters was an ordinary man living an ordinary life in Everstown, PA. A thirty-fiveyear-old African American accountant for his church, Salvation’s Call of the Tribuation, Anthony was well-liked and respected in his lower-middle-class community. He was a good family man, devoted to his wife, the pastor’s daughter, and their two teenage daughters who sang in the church’s Youth Choir—his oldest even served as the Director. Life was predictable, stable, and comfortable. But that all changed one fateful day.
It was a unusually warm December morning when Anthony decided to help the church prepare for Christmas by stringing lights over the entrance. A task he had done many times before. But this time, something went wrong. A sudden surge of electricity from a faulty wire jolted through his body, sending him plummeting fifteen feet to the ground, where he landed headfirst on the hard, concrete pavement.
Anthony struggled to remember but his head ached and his thoughts were clouded by the incessant drumming of a thousand computers.
IN A DREAM, ANTHONY FOUND HIMSELF DRIFTING THROUGH A COLOFUL AND EXPANSE COSMOS, AWARE THAT WHAT WAS HAPPENING WAS A VISION OF THE FUTURE
When Anthony regained consciousness, everything had changed. His senses felt heightened, his thoughts more chaotic, and a strange new energy pulsed within him.

HUMANITY’S FUTURE
Anthony awakened to discover that he was uncontrollably emitting electrical bolts from his body
Seriously stunning two laboratory technicians who said it was like a shock shaking up their souls
Before Anthony could fully comprehend his newfound powers, his world turned upside down once again. This time, he woke up in a sterile, white room, surrounded by the hum of machinery. Wires connected him to various devices, and he was strapped to a gurney. Disoriented and in pain, he demanded answers.
EVIL DOCTOR DORIS
“You’ve been here with us in sunny California for nearly Five Years, Mr. Peters.”
A woman in a lab coat, Dr. Doris, approached him with a cold, calculated smile. She introduced herself as the lead scientist at Psykeeteck, NeuralAI Generators—a secretive research facility specializing in neurological and AI experiments. She informed him, with a disturbing nonchalance, that after his accident, his family had signed a “Do Not Resuscitate” agreement, and upon his apparent death, his body was sold to Psykeeteck for research. But Psykeeteck experiments had somrhow revived him, and now, that he was alive, he was still their property.
As Anthony struggled against his restraints, Dr. Doris coldly informed him that his family was no longer a part of his life. He belonged to Psykeeteck now, a living experiment, and they had no intention of letting him go.
