  Those were convulsive times. Mass media transmitted continuously painful or troubling events. But hidden among so many manifestations of hopelessness, in a barely perceptible way, there were good news published that reflected the extraordinary achievements of a few persons that would transform deeply the future that then was beginning to take shape:

  A. The aging, stopped

  Resounding success in the first manufacturing tests of rejuvenating protein generators

  The first prototype generates proteins in the exact amount required by the simulator. Reliability and durability tests are already underway.

  After the first tests of the new prototype of Rejuvenating Protein Generator (RPG) the results have been hopeful, as stated by the person in charge of the project, Doctor Weyael. “The simulator system of human metabolic demand has received optimal response levels from the protein generator to changing needs, for what its operation have been tested in every scenario present in the life of one person such as situations of mental stress, great demand of physical energy, prolonged lack of sleep, depression, anxiety, or generalized reduction of defenses. It has also shown an outstanding performance facing failures in the different vital and sensory organs. The generating system has been at the level of expectations in all of them, generating the exact quantity of rejuvenating proteins required at all times, and distributing them directly to the demand areas at the pace needed in every instant” stated doctor Weyael at a press conference this morning.

  The next steps before moving to mass production of RPGs will be the reliability and durability tests, which once passed will give way to rejection tests in the different existing organic profiles.

  History of Today

  The estimated duration of the RPG prototype is 150 years

  With a reliability level very close to one hundred percent

  After ending the reliability and durability tests of prototypes yesterday, results have been published this morning: the equipment, once implanted in one human body, has an expected duration of 150 years with a reliability above 99.9997%. Once this period has elapsed it would be advisable to perform a unit replacement. Likewise the quality of the manufactured product exceeds the current maximum levels of demand, which implies that virtually 100,00% of the RPGs produced are according to specifications.

  Once these satisfactory results of the reliability and duration tests have been obtained, rejection tests have been given green light for the different organic profiles, and the production of RPGs in real environment is already scheduled for its application to people with those profiles that passed these tests.

  If you present one of the device rejection free profiles, you could have it available for implantation within 90 days, as reported by doctor Weyael, responsible for the design project of the Rejuvenating Protein Generator RPG, and for the tests prior to its release to production.

  History of Today

  Three organic profiles present risk of rejection to RPG above the acceptability threshold

  The generating device will go into production for the rest of profiles as planned

  It is expected that the promising RPG will go into production within a period of 60 days from today for its implantation in humans that presented a profile other than the three ones that have presented risk of rejection in the performed tests.

  The three risk profiles are subject to additional tests with the aim of making the pertinent corrections in the implantation system.

  Life expectancy in individuals with implanted RPGs will surely come determined by health diseases alien to the aging process.

  History of Today

  RPG production starts

  Expectations are met and the first implantable rejuvenating protein generators go into production.

  Expectations have been met on time. Only 60 days after the publication of the results of the first rejection tests the production of RPGs has started.

  The quantity of requested devices is exorbitant, as well as the waiting lists to get them. It is expected that the starting price of these generators will have a deterrent effect that serves to reduce the demand pressure.

  B. Cancer, defeated

  Carcinogenic cells uncovered

  The device allows to mark the affected cells for selective treatments.

  The research team of the Institute of Oncomorphological Studies, in collaboration with Aeternum Laboratories, has published yesterday the definitive results of the new contact carcinogenic cell marker device.

  This device places markers in the cells of the affected area in latency, that get activated only in case of uncontrolled multiplication events.

  This allows to make a map of the cancerous complex and maintain each cell that follow the pattern located and marked at every time, for its subsequent elimination either by chemical products or by nanobots.

  This technology represents a progress in the fight against cancer and opens a possibility of controlling the disease successfully even in the most unfavorable cases.

  History of Today

  Proteins responsible of the metastasis, immobilized and destroyed

  The new selective treatment immobilizes these proteins and then destroys the cells.

  Metastatic carcinogenic cells, lethal in the past, at last are fully exterminated. The new treatment allows the location of the metastatic cell during its cruise through the bloodstream, moment in which the first stage is activated, concluding with the detection and immobilization of the hidden proteins.

  When these proteins are unable to escape to the inside of the cell is when the second active principle of the treatment comes into play and destroys them along with the host cell itself.

  Once the components of this treatment impregnate the whole bloodstream no more cancerous tumor is able to invade another organ again.

  The progress achieved with this treatment implies that the cancerous tumors will get confined to the area in which they were generated, so that the neutralizer agents have the conditions guaranteed to accomplish the complete elimination of the disease.

  History of Today

  A new marker is therefore vital in the fight against cancer

  The procedures used until now did not prevent the arrival of cancerous cells to the blood vessels.

  The marking of carcinogenic cells and the detection and elimination of metastatic cells were two fundamental milestones in the fight against the disease. However, until yesterday these treatments did not serve to avoid the detachment of cancerous cells towards the circulatory system, in spite of the ability of neutralizing them when they enter the bloodstream.

  This panorama has changed radically today after the publication of the results of the tests of the new protomigrant cell marker. This marker is specia
lized in locating those cells that begin to modify their behavior oriented to come off the tumor. The neutralizer agents give these cells the maximum priority then and interrupt their usual routine to disable them in the first place, returning later to their scheduled task when they have concluded their elimination.

  History of Today

  We will Never detect late a tumor again

  Developed the early alerter of carcinogenic tissues.

  The new alerter of carcinogenic tissues, once implanted inside our bloodstream, lymphatic system and bone marrow, gets in latency state and is activated as soon as it detects any own activity of carcinogenic cells. In this moment it sends an alert to the hospital information system to contact urgently with the medical staff in charge of the implantation of carcinogenic markers and neutralizers. The speed of the treatment accomplished with this system allows the implantation in one single medical session of the agents that guarantee a successful elimination of the carcinogenic outbreak in its entirety, with minimum side effects.

  This later aspect is specially important given that the injuries in vital organs will be reduced to a minimum, and their total and fast rehabilitation will be possible practically in all cases.

  In the event that the organism already has the contact markers, immobilizers of proteins responsible of the metastasis, metastatic cell neutralizers and protomigrant cell markers, the alerter warns them which is the affected area immediately for them to head there to perform their functions.

  History of Today

  From today we will not even get to know that we have overcome a cancer

  The new autogenerators of neutralizers and markers will make it no longer necessary to go to the doctor.

  Today we can celebrate definitely a great news: the autogenerators of contact carcinogenic cell markers, metastatic cell neutralizers, protomigrant cell markers and cancerous cell removers are already available. This that at first glance might seem something strange and alien to our lives however has a direct impact in our day to day, because once these autogenerators, de facto neutralizer and marker factories, are implanted, they will generate immediately as many markers in the first phase, and neutralizers next, as needed to eliminate a tumor in formation detected by the early alerter of carcinogenic tissues.

  This way it will be unnecessary to go to the hospital center to make the implantation of marker and neutralizer agents and a maximum speed in the beginning of the treatment will be achieved in the same instant of the problem detection, so that it can be said that practically in all cases we will not even realize that we have had a tumor and we have overcome it.

  C. Diseased organs, renewed

  Transplanted successfully the first organic kidney manufactured with a tissue printer

  The new kidney has been generated from the material of the healthy tissue of the diseased kidney and subsequently transplanted successfully

  A new “artificial” kidney has been generated successfully. It has been made artificially with an organic tissue printer. However the obtained result has been an organ of which it could be said that is fully natural, because it is identical to the original kidney both in appearance and in texture and structure, and once the results obtained have been checked after the transplant we can conclude that it also works in a completely natural way.

  To be able to replicate this new kidney, healthy cells of tissue of the diseased kidney were used. The organic structure of the tissue was designed making an exact copy of that of the replaced organ. As soon as the confirmation of the validity of the new kidney, made in a room adjacent to that of the operation, was produced, they proceeded to transplantation. All of this made possible to trust in the absence of rejection of the new organ.

  Our sources have indicated us that the observation period has already concluded without having happened any adaptation problem, so it is possible to state that the new technique is safe and can be used widely onwards.

  Chapter 2. The unthinkable

  “You have a communication waiting, mister Phl…”

  “I am in the process of designing the project,” said the doctor by way of response without ever waiting for the speaker to finish talking. “I have understood that you are instructed not to interrupt my activity under any circumstances. Do you suggest that there is a problem with your programming?”

  “According to the parameters I handle everything is all right, sir,” answered the assistant with an expression devoid of rejection that only denoted caution. “Communication waiting is 0, so it prevails over instructions transmitted by you.”

  “Level 0 you say?, are you sure that communication is level 0?. I thought that an alert of this type could only be produced in theoretical models, never in a practical case.”

  “Information received does not offer any doubts, sir. No error has happened. The protocol indicates that you must interrupt your current activity to meet the incoming communication.”

  Between perplexed and worried, Tihr Phlib stood up and activated the switch. A circular platform, traversed by a section of the wall of the design room in its central area, pivoted, and in an instant he was already out of the room, inside an area where he could establish contact privately.

  “You are speaking with Tihr Phlib, I have received indications that this communication is level 0.”

  “I’m afraid that’s the way it is, mister Phlib. I haven’t been designated to transmit you good news. I am known as Dr. Pleber, and I’m the one in charge of the immobilized section of the Restorer Health Center in the Uluar sector.”

  “Immobilized. Is it anyone close to me?”

  “It’s your sister Esihr. She has entered in our center with severe trauma to the thoracic vertebra T5. It’s been partially crushed and as a result she has lost mobility of the lower limbs. Hereinafter, she depends on external mechanical means for her mobility.”

  On this side of the communication silence was heard. Tihr had been beaten so shockingly that wasn’t able to articulate a word, not even a thought. He was completely blocked.

  In the absence of reaction from Mr. Phlib, Dr. Pleber decided to ask. This way she would get the information she needed and at the same time she would help to react to her client.

  “In these cases it’s frequent to install a platform for adaptation to autonomous locomotive systems. This would allow your sister to lead an almost a normal life, being able to move with the help of any approved engine equipment. According to the indications of the patient you do not have financial capacity problems to deal with an implant of this type, is that information accurate?”

  “Excuse me. How did you tell me that my sister had suffered this injury?”

  “The truth is, I haven’t told you because it hasn’t been communicated to me. We have received an admission in the Center that presented a clinical picture of the characteristics I have transmitted to you. At no time have we been provided with details of the way the injury has been produced.”

  “I get it. I suppose that to gather more data about that I will have to call another door.”

  “I’m afraid so, mister Phlib. Unless sometime we receive details about the cause of the flattening, in which case we would inform you, given your interest for the subject.”

  “The truth is that I still have no interest in performing any implant to my sister,” he said sharply then, with a renewed energy dose that had given him a decided determination. “I have the hope of achieving the repair of her vertebra.”

  “I must tell you that with the equipment currently available there is no possibility of repairing that vertebra. The most sensible thing is to perform an implant that will allow your sister to incorporate mechanical means of personal mobility. This way, at least she will continue enjoying certain level of motor autonomy.”

  “If I approve the realization of the implant, in the event that I found a method to repair the vertebra later, could my sister recover her normal mobility, like the one she had bef
ore the injury?”

  “Natural mobility wouldn’t be able due to the replacement of the spinal tissue by electric conductors in the lower zone of the spine.”

  “That is just how I imagined you would answer me. I prefer my sister to receive an injury recovery treatment and the necessary training to move herself by purely mechanical and non-electrical means.”

  “In any case it could be that taking a decision of this magnitude immediately wouldn’t allow you to accurately weigh all the implications that this entails. If it seems good to you, I propose to get in touch with you again tomorrow, so that you can better assess this new situation.”

  “It is not necessary in fact. I already had made a decision.”

  “By now I’ll limit myself to registering your refusal to the implantation. Anyway I will repeat you the proposal within three days for you to have an opportunity to reverse your decision. After this deadline the decision will be irrevocable and you won’t be able to back down. Do you understand what I say?” asked the doctor in a glacial voice, or at least this was the impression she gave Tihr.

  “… Yes. for my part it is right. How is my sister Esihr?”

  “Her physical recovery follows the usual patterns as expected.” The voice of doctor Pleber was just as icy.

  “I rather was referring to… her state of mind.”

  The voice of doctor Pleber began to show signs of impatience. It was clear that she had already lost interest in the conversation.

  “She is very worried about being unable to meet her professional commitments. She is shocked, but she has great confidence in you. When she knows the decision you have taken may her confidence will start to readjust to reality after all.”
