that he was at the verge of death at this point . You would give it 15 to 20 minutes before he passed , there was no way he could live more than that . Then the machine came to rescue him ! If you and the others could successfully connect Kelsey to the machine and send him to the virtual world before he passed away , his soul could still continue its living even though it got separated from his body . The only reason this could work is because 2 days ago you made Kelsey create himself an avatar that was from the virtual world and it looked like Kelsey from top to bottom . You could bet that he put extra effort in creating the avatar to make it look like himself . Well who could blame him after the process finished all that would be left from him would be this avatar . When the process took place Kelsey ’ s soul would possess the avatar that he had created for himself . Now after 2 days of work and preparation everything was ready . With Kelsey being at his verge of death you were patting his head and mumbling sweet-nothings to his ear and Connor was checking if the machine was okay to use . You held Kelsey ’ s cute little hand and covered it with your big , old palms . He had started to tear up a little but you were quick to stop him . “ Everything will be alright , no harm will ever come to you and might I add that your avatar looks awesome , c ’ mon big boy , it ’ s time for you to rest now . Believe me you will never feel that pain that was so unbearably agonizing . Close your eyes .’’ You tried to give him a big smile , but you couldn ’ t stop a tear from falling you so turned your head away so he wouldn ’ t see your tears . “ Thank you , Mr . Markus , … for everything ” he smiled and closed his hazel eyes slowly . Then he
went into a deep slumber but the smile on his face was still visible as ever . You turned your face back at him watching him sleep peacefully . Your cheeks were still wet from all the tears you shed “ you too Kelsey , you too ’’ you tucked him in and turned to Connor . “ Is everything alright over there ?” you asked . Connor answered with a simple ‘ mhm ’ then said “ everything is all set up and ready to go !” then you heard a beeping sound . Mary ran to the monitor and then said “ Kelsey ’ s heart is about to stop , it ’ s at 30 ! Hurry up and start the machine Connor .’’ Connor smiled and clicked the button that had “ Second Life ’’ written on it . Everything started glowing up for a minute and then all the light quickly vanished that must have meant that the process was over but you couldn ’ t be sure just yet . Based on the researches and experiments that were done on the human brain , it showed that the brain could live about 10 minutes more even if its host had passed away . This meant that they had to wait at least 10 minutes to make sure that Kelsey got transferred to the virtual world properly and nothing went wrong . After 10 stressful minutes everything looked normal , you constantly checked on Kelsey ’ s brain function levels to make sure he was alright and he really was . You and the others has been successful now Kelsey would be able to live even if his body couldn ’ t . You turned to Mary and said “ Isn ’ t it wonderful , I can ’ t wait to see what future has in mind for us ’’ you both looked at Kelsey and Mary sent a smile towards your direction and said “ it won ’ t be boring at least that ’ s for sure ’’ you two snickered and called it a day for today .
