As a resolution to my story, I place Calvin further in unknown territory, past the point of no return. I end it off on a cliffhanger as I believe leaving it open ended really leaves a sense of unease in the reader, and has them create their own conclusions on what they think happened. I end the story with a large story revelation as well.
Composing himself again, Calvin finds himself no longer in the corrider of windows. Surveying his surroundings, he sees many doors, all shut and locked, no surprise there. Wandering further down the twists and turns of the hallways, He comes across a open door, seemingly left open for him. Calvin draws closer to the door and walks into in the room. The air is stale and feels like it hasn’t be disturbed in a long time. Like most other rooms in the complex, the ever present concrete walls were no surprise to him. Though this room seemed like a office space of sorts. A desk, with a computer, printer, and monitor sat in front of him, with chairs for 3 people.
Calvin notices the light spilling from the monitor. Letting his intrigue get the better of him, Calvin walks around the desk to get a better view at the monitor. His eyes lock on to a webpage looking like a database.
Calvin does his best to navigate the database. He eventually comes across plans for the complex he was in. As he reads, his worst fears are confirmed in that they are brainwashing captured rebels and criminals into working for their cause. While processing this information, Calvin also realizes he might be on limited time, Father couldn’t be obviously to his actions at this point, snooping around their files must have raised some alarms. Calvin frantically searches for the oldest entry on the database. As he finds it, and begins reading, his whole perception of what he’s been going through falls down. As sirens begin blaring out across the complex, Calvin struggles with the reality that Father was never real.
