(Morgan Laboratories -> Geschrieben ohne spezifischen Zusammenhang mit der Story/ Written without any specific context to the main story) 

The archives of the Morgan Laboratories hold secrets that are hidden even from the secret service, that is something all of the people working in the facility know. It is common knowledge that the experiments were more than illegal and that the reports describing what has been done to every single human ever used as an experiment there are kept safe behind several high security locks. The secrets behind the thick metal doors in the lowest level of the basement are brutal, gruesome and disturbing. But what if I told you that the archives also contain some reports that don't look like they should belong in there? No one remembers why, but some of the stories seem so normal that they feel almost unreal compared to the other secrets of the place. I am forbidden to tell you why, but I know of some of those special stories and all of their content. Of course, what I am doing is highly illegal, stealing information from a laboratory that is guarded on a level like this, but I think the stories should be told and shared so that people can know at least some of the secrets of science. So, if you're interested, come and listen to me while I tell you the story of one of the first functioning experiments of the Morgan Laboratories and how it began to fail after years of working perfectly. This is the story of E524, Felix Morgan's first personal experiment and his best nurse.

The story begins like many others on a normal day. Well, maybe not quite that normal. It was E524's first proper free day. Dr. Morgan had given her permission to do whatever she liked for one day, as long as it wasn't against the rules. Usually, the experiment only got days off when Dr. Morgan took her outside to go find new potential 'patients', and those were not really free days, although they weren't really that stressful or tiring, not that she knew those feelings. But that day was really special. She wasn't outside, she didn't have to work, she didn't have to do anything. Usually, her free will was turned off by the people working on the computers that were controlling her mind, so it was just normal for her to do her work every day. But now, as she was able to think for herself, even though with lots of limitations, she had almost asked the Doctor to give her instructions on what she should do in her free time. In the end, though, she decided to go to the library. It was one of the rooms she was allowed to enter and always wanted to explore whenever her feelings and emotions, as well as her free will were switched on. The young woman barely knew anything about the society of the outside world, just that there were people and children who weren't wanted and so Dr. Morgan picked them up to take them back to the laboratory. The outside world had always been a mystery to her. Why were those people unwanted? Why were they always so sad even when the weather was good? She didn't know anything. The feeling she felt every time she thought about the outside world would commonly be described as curiosity and she was aware of it, which made it even more difficult to try to not be curious, since it was a feeling that couldn't really be restricted or shut off, not in moments of free will and emotion. This led to her visiting the library again after a long time, on this first ever fully free day. And of course the only books in the library were medical and scientific books. Knowledge of the outside world was forbidden, it was also something she knew, but there had to be clues to the mystery somewhere. The experiment started to look at and sometimes through many of the books in the big room filled with shelves, but there was nothing. An unfamiliar feeling of disappointment started to grow in her, but right as she wanted to turn around and leave the library, something caught her eye. There seemed to be another row of shelves behind this one, even though you couldn't see through to the other side. There was only a small open part of what looked like a part of the wall from afar, but it was actually an opening, apparently made for shorter humans. It was extremely risky, but the personality of the human woman she had been a long time ago, started to shimmer through the barriers of the computer system. Slowly and with careful steps, E524 stepped through the opening. What she saw made very clear why most other experiments weren't allowed in here. There was another shelf and it was full of colorful books with even more colorful titles and perfectly white pages. The experiment was shocked for a second and hesitated. She should definitely not see this. But she was so curious and Dr. Morgan surely wouldn't be angry if she learned something about how the society of humans works. Maybe she could just look at one book and see if the books were actually different ones, and not just some newer or simply controversial medical books. Carefully, she grabbed one of the books and admired the beautiful cover of it for a second, before she opened the first page. It definitely wasn't a medical book. It looked more like a story. E524 flipped through the pages of the book and stopped at several points. The book seemed to contain illustrations to help imagining the stories. All of them looked interesting, the characters were colored with very vivid colors, but none of the pictures fascinated E542 more than the last one. It was a picture of two people who did something she knew was called kissing. Dr. Morgan had once explained that it was an act of showing love and affection. She had asked what those words mean, but the man had never told her, but instead just sent her away again so she could continue to do her usual work. Love and affection. The experiment didn't know why she hadn't tried this before, but she let her inner computer look for definitions and synonyms for the words. And that's how the experiment found out about love.

Unfortunately, the thought of this apparently so beautiful feeling of falling in love was not able to be erased from her mind, no matter the state of her mind, even if her thoughts were controlled. And of course, this would lead to something bad, as it always does in stories like this. The obsession with love and wanting to experience it distracted the nurse from work. Nothing happened, she was lucky for a very long time, but luck doesn't last forever.

One day, E524 worked with one of the experiments that have never been humans, but instead were created in the laboratory. X2333 was the number of the experiment she worked with that day and with its incredibly high artificial intelligence it managed to trick the distracted nurse and confuse her, breaking through the emotion barrier. The red emergency lights went off and the alarm bells were ringing in the whole building as soon as the being slipped through the iron door of its cell and escaped into the hallway, quickly running towards the elevator. E524 could only stand there and watch, almost hypnotized by the techniques X2333 had used. As soon as she was discovered, standing still in the open cell, she was brought to the control center. It turned out that a system error had occurred because she was so obsessed with the thought of love. The other experiment easily got through the safety measures of her inner computer and made her unable to do anything against it. The system error had made the experiment very weak. But the most interesting thing written in the report belonging to this story is that she had been diagnosed with being in love. The experiment had never gotten any affection other than the friendliness of some of the other experiments, but the system error had awoken the unconscious part of her brain, making her remember something she actually shouldn't: The romantic relationship she had had with the founder of the laboratories, Dr. Felix Morgan himself, before she had become an experiment when he had gone mad. The system error was also so complicated that the control staff wasn't able to detect it and it wasn't fixable.

E524 was shut down manually after being the laboratory's head nurse for 37 years. The last time her appearance was documented was in one of the scientist's diaries 40 years later, when a puppet labeled Alexandra (which had been E524's official name) apparently stood in a corned of Dr. Morgan's office.

X2333 was never found after it broke out of the laboratory and is suspected to be living among the people in the nearby city now.

This story is one of the most guarded in the whole archive, even though there is nothing gruesome about it. It is actually a sad story, telling about the actual end of a love that seemed immortal, even though it was unconscious. I personally think the story was guarded so well because it tells something about Felix Morgan himself and that he had made the love of his life one of his first experiments. But that is another story for another day, because I am far from the limit of my knowledge.

Oh, my name? That is not important, I am only an average person telling stories to people. Who knows, maybe you'll get to hear my other stories too...
