Sunny, Monday. March 16, Year 3008. Lamberton, the Empire. Galaxy GDX Establishment No. 987685.
In front of the transparent culture pillar in the Lab
A (Monologue): The last time I saw you, you were leaving for the war. They told me, you would come back to life if god decided it. I came to visit you everyday. I prayed for you every night. You were here sleeping in the 200 ml of crystalized liquid.
A (In memory): When the letter reached my hands a month ago, I was trembled as the first time I knew the secret of Sunflowers. Some black suits came to my place and told me you were placed in the experiment of revival, if I understood the terms they used to call it. Within three months, your soul would return to earth in another form.
A (Monologue): Today is the last day of the time limit. Tomorrow you will be disposed. I hate the way they put it, but it was true. The project for condensing human extract is crazy. Stand and talk to me, whatever. I miss you.
Sunset outside the window. Orange colour painted all walls of the lab.
A (Monologue): I am here to say goodbye. It seems the miracle does not stand beside me. You should know. The time you asked me what if you died, I told you, you are always alive as long as I live. And it's true. I know the world is a big lie to you, and the whole revival thing is fake. I will enjoy life more for both you and me. I will smile always to everyone, as you did. I promise. Be in peace.
(A turns slowly toward the exit. The black suit follows. At the moment the black suit opens the exit door, the 200 ml liquid in the container bubbles.)
Black Suit: Wait! Look!
A (turns back in confusion and doubt): It's a bubble.
(The liquid is boiling, escalating violently. Both people walk back amazed. The black suit immediately informs the authority)
A (slowly): T-e-d, is that you?
(evaporation forms a condensed white mist, changing shapes but sticking together)
A (gently): Can "You" hear me? (trying hard to communicate with air)
Mist: makes a circle in the small space
A (surprised): Ted? That is your soul?
Mist: floats towards the edge closer to A, seems trying to say something but fails
A (breathes): I can't believe it...It's impossible.
Door opens. Three white cloak enter. The black suit pushed A aside
Cloak 1: A success. Sample ZO37685-LA is revived.
Cloak 3: It seems better than last one. The shape is much more stable.
Cloak 2: Look, (using a pointer) the liquids were absorbed.
Cloak 1: We can collect more data to see how it communicates with others.
Cloak 2: Better start from her (points at A)
Cloak 3: I agree. (turns to A) Ms. Bennings, your husband is revived in this shape you saw by your own eyes. As the agreement ZO-3008 you signed, you can have him with you starting from now. But you are obliged to cooperate with us in all experiments and researches and follow-ups. You understand?
A: Yes. That is what the agreement said. So this IS him. How can I tell?
(No Answer. Cloak 1 signs to the black suit to open the outside container, and the smaller inside one)
(Mist moves quickly toward A and circles around her face, neck and satys right beside her right shoulder)
To be continued.
