November 1st, 4006 (Part 3)
The afterlife is real. What this means on an existential level is…questionable. That’s a can of worms I’ve yet to open. I was in denial and I thought it was just a gas leak.
Well, I was wrong. Partially. There was, in fact, a gas leak, but it wasn’t the cause of the ghosts appearing. It was actually the effect. When they took control of the house, they bursted several pipes. I had forgotten to check the pipes for any leakage.
As my luck goes, while we were sitting watching a show, Isaac had actually inhaled the fumes and died. Dan and Stove were horrified. Unbeknownst to them, this is not a new experience for me. I kinda got deja-vu, not gonna lie.
Isaac went out peacefully and I was able to clone a new body for him. I surgically removed his brain and transferred it into the cloning machine. It created a new body using the old one, and viola, Isaac (version 2) was born. Once again, it’s the same person. Same brain. But it doesn’t make it any less weird.
It is not something I looked forward to. Having to bury the body of one of my brothers for the second time. I love Isaac. Even though he can be a handful at times, it’s haunting to know what they’re going to look like when they die. I don’t think I wish that burden on anyone.
If the afterlife is real, as the existence of the ghosts proved, I have found myself wondering. Is the professor watching over me? Can he see me? If he can, why hasn’t he come down to talk to me?
I shudder in fear at the idea that the original Stove and original Isaac watch me.
I’m going to try to sleep. Talk later,
