Chapter 8: Atlas' Headache
* * * * *
It's sad to say it, folks, but this story must come to an end.
"Finally..."
We had no idea where we were going with this tale when it began, and it seems that some kind of plot developed as it progressed.
"Our first mistake was creating a multi-chapter story based around smut. Second, well, was thinking that we should have anything to do with a serious
plot
in the first place. The word itself makes me sick."
To balance out the abundance of sex and lack of actual story in what we've done thus far, I guess, the next three chap-
"I'm sorry, what?"
The next, and final,
three
chapters will be focused more on an edgy plot that will likely be completely rebuilt and overhauled sometime in the future.
"Everything you just said sounded like a lot of work that I wasn't expecting to do."
I told you before, I know-
"I kNoW hOw To EnD tHiS sHiTsHoW oNcE aNd FoR aLl."
... You didn't have to give a direct quote.
"If you wanted to give this story a
proper
send-off, we should just write about Jack drowning in breast milk or something."
As fitting as that would be, it just wouldn't sit right with me.
"Fuck you, and your wobbly chair. Get started before you turn three chapters into eight."

"Welp, it looks like he took the bait." Came from a featureless figure made up of a still, unnatural darkness. All around him and his companion were beams of lights passing around and through their figures in every possible direction, each randomly colored stream representing a piece of data that existed within that part of the internet they were located in. Though the figure and his form could be seen clearly within the part of cyberspace he occupied, his silent counterpart was nothing but a mess of glittery, silver static, doing her best to remain whole against the raging, rainbow static that was assaulting her.
"Hang in there just a bit longer, we're almost there." He said, his multi-voice filled with both sympathy and pity as his head turned and lowered to face the shapeless entity.
The silver mass of data just let out a broken, distorted sob in response.
"Paranoid shithead... Just click the link already." He grumbled to himself, crossing his arms and tapping his foot on an invisible surface while looking up into the chaotic sky of the fourth dimension.
"... There we go."
A moment later, there was a sudden flash of light, and the two beings found themselves in the physical world.
"Ahhh!"
Meg instantly cried out, looking down at the dark, grey carpet her hands and knees were pressed against with wide eyes. "Oh, oh god... Th-that was almost as bad as basic training." She said, her chipmunk voice quivering as her petite body trembled.
The short silhouette that had been accompanying her was no longer visibly present, but it was clear that he was still very much there with her. Just as he said before they had made the jump, they would become one upon crossing the barrier into reality.
The experience of becoming a genie altogether was disorienting enough, at first. She lived her entire nineteen years of life as an individual made up of flesh and bone, bound by the laws of physics, reality, and a murderous, psychopathic, artificial intelligence that could tweak the two previous aspects to a degree. Then, just ten hours ago, all of that changed, and it was as if she were a conscious, numb, rubber ball that's surface was covered with a trillion functioning, microscopic eyes.
And when Meg entered the internet a mere half-hour ago with her ghostly friend, each of those hypothetical eyes were observing a different, individual website with fervent attention for a few moments before it would be replaced by another as they ventured through cyberspace.
"You did great."
Several soft voices said from all around her, each of them speaking at the same time.
"So much porn..." Meg said, her projected human form looking up from the floor and towards the greyscale wall with wide eyes while her mind was doing its best to recall how to maneuver in a numb, semi-mortal state once again. "Why was it all porn?!"
