Do you wake up?

Yes, eventually.

After an unknown amount of time you finally open your eyes and squint at the bright light shining in your face. You blink and try to look around but your moves are sluggish, however you can’t feel any pain despite your **** injuries. Then right in your face you see the Doc’s face. “I see you lived through the procedure.” He grabs the sides of your face and shines a bright small light in each eye causing you to squint but he holds each eye open as he does. “Excellent, excellent, I see everything has worked out nicely.” Then he disappears from view but you hear him continue talking, “Well you are alive after all. I also have your friend locked to a table awaiting what ever you intend to do to her. So I have some good news, some bad news, and some really bad news. Which do you want to hear first?”

You attempt to answer but hear nothing. “Don’t fuck with me I have had a shitty night just spill it.” You do see your words print across your view screen oddly as if you are typing your thoughts. “What is going on?”

“Wonderful the interface works perfectly I see. Well to sum up your situation you suffered massive internal injuries, your boost is shot and will need to be replaced, the crash did further wonders to your already damaged body.”

“But I didn‘t crash I walked in didn‘t I?” Your mind races to remember and as much as you feel like you walked in you don‘t actually remember if it really happened or if it was a trauma induced hallucination. “Get to the point please.” You demand apparently in written text.

“Ok. You are at a unique position to make a decision of what you want me to do. You see you are filled with **** and your mind is hooked to a computer, that is the only way I am keeping you alive. If you wish I can of course fix you. However the total cost is going to be $496,000 and as we are friends and I trust you I would be willing to do it. However it will take me about a week to finish and then there are no guarantees that you will function as good as you do now. Or I can just get you functional and alive for $220,000. I am guessing you won’t want that as it will mean living with broken cybernetics inside of you that will eventually if not removed or repaired probably poison you. Or I am actually in the unique position of having an alternate body that is simply mindless that I could put your mind into for only $50,000 and it shouldn’t take more than an a couple of hours.”

“How is that possible?”

“Simple I harvest cybernetic implants and buy bodies occasionally for spare parts. It just so happens I picked one up less than an hour ago that would be easy to transfer your mind into and get running. I admit I have never done this which is why I would be willing to charge you only what I paid for the corpse.”

You start to question further but everything begins to fade out. “I.”

“I am loosing him Doc.” You hear his assistant say coldly.

“Quick which will it be, what are you willing to risk?”

You are fading, do you decide or do you black out?
