WRITERS: simon, avery, null RATED ALL AGES It was a dark and gloomy day, and the dim glow of a computer screen illuminated the room Arsyn sat in. Now, to be clear, this was NOT his computer, it just happened to be there. It seemed to be able to control itself, in fact, it was inputting its own password as Arsyn watched, utterly bemused. He ran a hand through his hair and sipped his wine and started to lean back, when suddenly the computer spoke words to him. "Hello =) Welcome to Windows XL!!!" Arsyn hesitated for a moment, before shaking his head. "Did you just.. Speak a face?" -------------------- Windows XL did not respond with words, rather with the one universal truth a computer could understand: MATH. Windows XL opened an excel spreadsheet and started filling in a massive chart of everything imaginable. It every ADDPRODUCT, SUM, and COUNT function was carefully placed, and Arsyn asked,
"What are you doing?"
The Machine could only reply
"I am trying to calculate my way back to heaven"
-------------------- arsyn looked at the computer puzzlingly, and then with pity. "oh i see... have you been banished?" "yes... i appear to have been." the computer made a groaning sounds through his vintage vans. "i might be able to help you, my dear." arsyn stood up to look around the room, looking for an old knife from his days in the cult. "this should do the trick!" "what is that, human?" the computer said, stopping it's calculations in confusion and interest "something that will get you back to heaven!" arsyn said calmly, dowsing his knife in the 'wine' he was just drinking. "now hush... and return to heaven my dear..." the computer let out a soft whine and thanked arsyn, covering his own digital screams as the knife stabbed into its screen.
