Even though they weren't facing the camera, you could see what needed to be seen. One face. Four times. It was Drey, but not Drey. My brain and eyes didn't know how to put it at first. It felt like I was seeing Drey in four different faces. They look exactly the same but in different appearances. Like I was staring at the four shades of Drey.

There, they kept watch over the Acoustic Prism.

My life was finally starting, and I had these incredible men by my side to share it with. “To our future,” I said, raising an imaginary glass. They all followed suit, their voices overlapping in agreement. For once, the future didn’t seem so daunting. It seemed bright. Full of hope.

A teasing voice cut through the air with the approaching Fabian, who was fawned over and orbited by a group of childhood friends. “Buddy, you should’ve come to me for a loan! How are the cars coming along? I’ve been bragging about you everywhere, so don’t let me embarrass myself now!” Standing beside him was Chester Byrd, casually raising his wrist adorned with an imitation of a green Rolex Submariner.

The checkpoints were manned by sleek, humanoid robots that watched us with cold, calculating eyes, their metal bodies emblazoned with the insignia of Phoenix-4. Finally, we arrived at the heart of the base: a vast, circular chamber filled with a dazzling array of futuristic equipment. There were holographic training simulators, gravity generators, an
