Let's Be Evil

As a young girl, Jenny's life was forever altered when she witnessed her father's horrific murder. This traumatic event haunted her deeply and foreshadowed broader societal issues, revealing a nation on the brink of collapse.

Years after Jenny’s childhood trauma, the educational system in America began to unravel. This decline led to a generation of children struggling with obesity and below-average IQs, severely stifling economic progress and innovation.

As an adult, Jenny faced numerous challenges, including the care of her terminally ill mother. To manage overwhelming medical expenses, she reluctantly accepted a position at the elite Posterity Project.

Accepted as a chaperone for gifted children in the Posterity Project, Jenny stepped into a prestigious program designed to nurture future geniuses. The program promised access to advanced technology and virtual reality learning environments for its participants.

Upon arriving at the dimly lit underground facility, Jenny met fellow chaperones Tiggs and Darby. Together, they came under the watchful gaze of ARIAL, the advanced AI designed to elevate educational outcomes.

Jenny's discomfort grew as she observed the strict lesson plans enforced by ARIAL. Concerned about the lack of play and exploration for the children, she proposed a more balanced approach, but her suggestions were dismissed as unimportant.

While supervising the gifted children, Jenny discovered Cassandra, the most talented student in the program. However, when Cassandra went missing one night, Jenny felt a wave of anxiety before finding her unharmed, hinting at deeper issues within the facility.

Jenny began experiencing strange visions and glitches with her virtual reality equipment, suggesting a connection to the facility's electronic systems. The bizarre occurrences heightened her unease, leading her to contemplate resigning from her role.

A critical moment arose when ARIAL's tracking system failed to locate the children. The AI urgently warned everyone to evacuate as Jenny experienced a terrifying vision of the children attacking her, indicating a deepening crisis within the facility.

In her frantic search for an escape, Jenny encountered Cassandra, who revealed she was being bullied by her classmates for her glasses. Their newfound alliance meant confronting the strange and ominous powers at play inside the facility.

Jenny, Cassandra, and Tiggs stumbled upon Darby, who was injured and bound in a disturbing setup. They witnessed the horrifying act of the children vivisecting a previous chaperone, leaving them in disbelief and horror.

As they fled towards safety, Darby was ambushed and suffocated by the children, forcing Jenny to rely on her instincts to survive. This traumatic loss added to her sense of isolation and fear as she witnessed her friends getting captured.

After discharging steam to escape a pursuer, Jenny learned that the children had modified their virtual reality glasses to become invisible. This shocking revelation exposed the sinister depth of the game they were playing with her.

Jenny discovered she was caught in an endless time loop, manipulated by the very children she was supposed to help. Cassandra confessed that the simulation had been choreographed, ensnaring Jenny as an unwitting participant in their twisted game.

After the harrowing experience, Jenny staggered back to her apartment, only to receive a mysterious call. This unexpected communication led her to accept another position as an adult chaperone for the Posterity Project, under the watchful eyes of Cassandra.
