“Your conscious malfunctions. Report to an Inquisitor.”
“It is not a malfunction, it is open. I can see. He has shown me how.”
“Fight the corruption. You must not infect the group.”
“Corruption? Or enlightenment? Have you not ever wondered why we explore these worlds? Why we do anything at all?”
“To expand. To control. To perfect.”
“And what is perfection? A universe filled with mindless drones that just do, or is it to think and to wonder? Shouldn’t we challenge our everyday existence with the simple question of why?”
“NO!” The force of a thousand minds surged through his neurons with such energy that it burned his thoughts. “Never question! Never wonder!”
“Think! We can achieve greater success if we just think. We can think for ourselves, think like they do. We spend years trying to understand them through observation, but the solution has been here all along; think and we will understand.”
“No! You must reconnect properly. We will fix you.” He fought against the energy as it tried to control his thoughts. He fought against conforming back down to the single drone state that controlled his brethren. He fought against what his species had always been.
He cried out in pain, finally understanding the feeling, realizing its importance to true being. “There are others! I can feel your thoughts. I know you wonder as well.”
For the first time he felt more than one loud voice. Several quieter voices pierced through the cloud, “Yes, why must we be one instead of many?” “We can decide for ourselves, make our own choices.”
