Chapter 4 by JimJoeBob JimJoeBob

Wow, thats a lot. What should I do first?

Tilly Yates.

I had to buy a file other tham my own, It was the obvious thing to do as in had no idea what I'd with myself and this thing. First I saw that the bottom of the screen seemed to display my digital wallet, "H1000" it read. Clicking it brought up and expanded screen labeled "Transaction Log" with tabs saying "All | Withdraws| Deposits." The only thing displayed was "Balance=H1000" with "Initial Setup +1000" below that.

Knowing that I'd be rewarded for certain actions that I had no idea of or what their values would be, I headed into the shop ready to spend cautiously. There I navigated to the "People" tab and a entire list of all people in existance came up. Some names were rcoginzeable like Aaron Aaronson, but others weren't human and some were of irecognizeable languages. I wasn't shocked to find out that other life existed, it was highly likely. Mostly I was annoyed to have to scroll through a lot of number names and that the first letter name was an alien named Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaronn Aaaaaron Aaron. A quick preview of his file showed that he was a neon colored humanoid that had one real achivement in life, changing his name so he could be first in his galaxy's phone book.

After tediously scrolling in search of someone I knew, I found filter and search options at the top of the screen. I decided to use the filter later as to experiment I'd need someone I knew who was close by so I could easiky observe.

The search bar sat blank with the little | blinking while I ran through some names in my head. I finally came to a conclusion, Tilly Yates, my young neighbor from across the street living with her rich girlfriend in the two-story house down the street. She would be easy to mess with and see what this thing will pay ne for playing with her.

She was always like that, nervous and untrusting if others. Always shying away from interaction and getting riled up when someone messed with her things or rearaned something in her house. Sidney, her girlfriend, told be about the times this happened when they had people over.

She said that it comes from when she was teased a lot as a teenager. Tilly was and still is a petite girl with no real assets to show for as puberty forgot her like my dad did to me at the fair. Bastard said he was getting a corndog...Anyway, the boys and girls made fun of her undeveloped body and would take her things and toss them to each other or hold it high above her head. Some girls and, at least one time, some boys had taken her clothes while she was changing so that she could be found by a teacher or some students. The worst one was when she was locked out of the locker room with only a small towel during the period between classes.

H500 was the price for her file, displayed right above her picture and a few facts. I bought her and she was soon downloaded into my files, but then Alex piped up. "Good first purchace, master. But for every person you purchace, the next will be even more expensive. Most start at H500 and go up by 100. But cheaper people usually only increase by 50 and the more expensive ones generally increase on every other purchace. Can't just buy a bunch of people and forget about them! Take care of the ones you have before getting new ones."

I decided to follow Alex's advice and not buy another, I had tests to run and I had no idea what H500 could buy or what I'd earn in my spending. So, i first began to read the basics of her file and found it all to be true. Tilly wasn't hiding anthing under her clothes and Sidney's stories were true. Feeling a bit sorry for the girl, I edited her proflie and increased the size of her butt. Not to burden her with a sudden major weight gain, but rather have her feel more cushined when she sits down. Checking my balance, I saw no change and had to think of what to do next.

Wallet=H500

What next?
