Mortality is a thing many people are afraid of. Most people wish they could live forever and avoid death. Some wish they could have more time to achieve something they didn’t have a chance to. One scientist decided to challenge the notion. After working for months they came up with a device that will help them stay immortal.
A sub dermal chip implanted in a subjects neck would allow a rebirth of the scientist upon death. The chip will release a million nanobots that will rewrite the genetic code and alter the physiological traits of the subject until they are a copy of the scientist before the time of death or a preset template from the scientist. The memories of the scientist's life including the moments of and before death will be uploaded to the new scientist/clone.
Today the chip has activated and the scientist wakes up in a foreign body. At first, they think they are dreaming but it soon kicks in.
”Oh lord I died... Well, it seems the chip worked but it implanted my mind first. Well, the transformation should start anytime soon, I hope I packed enough pain meds in those nanobots”
What body did the scientist wake up in? What does the scientist look like who do they transform into? Who is the scientist? You decide!
