Scientists have determined that all of mankind shall be sterile by the year 2050. Many questions have been raised about how to preserve mankind and how will it continue to go on living, hence the Adam and Eve Project was born.
Interviewer: Participant, you realize that you are giving up your identity and who you are all together, right?
Participant: Yes, sir. I understand completely.
Interviewer: Shall we begin then?
(Participant nods his head in compliance)
Interviewer: Phase one entails a series of questions relating to you who were in the past and who you are today. In Phase two, who you are today and in the past will no longer matter. Everything will be erased and you will begin a new life. Once this has taken place, you will be ready for Phase three. I cannot reveal at this time the procedures for Phase three until it has been cleared that you are ready for it. After the completion of Phase three, the trial will conclude and you will be fully compensated for your time. There should be no pain and little to no side effects during this experiment. Do I have your consent to continue?
(Participant nods his head a little less reassuredly than before)
Interviewer: Great. Please state your name and age.
Participant: My name is Sam Givens and I am 25 years old.
Interviewer: Mr. Givens, are you married and do you have any children? If so, how long have you been married and how many children do you have? What are their ages?
Mr. Givens: I am single and have no children.
(Interviewer nods in approval)
Interviewer: What is it that you currently do for a job or occupation?
Mr. Givens: I am a retired disabled veteran from the Air Force for the United States of America.
Interviewer: Did you go to college?
Mr. Givens: I have a Bachelors in Science and a Masters in astrophysics.
Interviewer: At what college were these degrees attained?
Mr. Givens: I attended Stanford University for both my Bachelors and Masters.
Interviewer: What kind of grades did you obtain while attending Stanford University?
Mr. Givens: I received top marks in all my classes and was close to becoming valedictorian, but lost to another student at the time.
Interviewer: How did that make you feel?
Mr. Givens: I didn’t feel one way or the other. I was just happy to be done and ready to start my life.
Interviewer: Was this the direction you had planned for your life as a child?
Mr. Givens: Just like so many kids my age at the time, I wanted to be a doctor, but as I got older my interests changed.
Interviewer: What changed for you?
(Mr. Givens hesitates)
Mr. Givens: When I graduated high school, my mother gave me a book about astronomy and I soon fell in love with the idea of all things space.
Interviewer: Please tell me a little bit about how you were as a child.
Mr. Givens: I was a quiet kid that liked to be left alone. I was often picked on for being smaller than my other peers. This didn’t bother me though. I was content being left alone. I often would daydream and write as a kid. I think that’s how I survived.
Interviewer: Please tell me more about your parents.
Mr. Givens: My father left when I was two years old and then my mother raised me by herself. I had no other siblings. She often worked two jobs in order to provide for me. I was often left to my own devices as a child.
Interviewer: Did you have any relations as you grew up?
Mr. Givens: I had a girlfriend for a while in college. But we both realized that we wanted something different in life and went our separate ways.
Interviewer: Do you often think of her?
Mr. Givens: Sometimes I do, but more often than not, I am just thinking about ways to better my life.
(Interviewer raises one eyebrow in question)
Interviewer: And you feel that you can do this through our project?
Mr. Givens: Being disabled, I have little to no ability to contribute to society any more. I feel this is the best way that I can help.
Interviewer: Mr. Givens, would you say that you have good morals and ethics?
Mr. Givens: I would like to think so.
Interviewer: What would you say makes a person bad or good?
Mr. Givens: A good person does no harm to anything or anyone else. A bad person only thinks about themselves and how they can further themselves whilst ignoring the plight of their fellow man.
Interviewer: Since you believe you have morals and ethics, would you consider yourself to be a good man?
Mr. Givens: I have my ups and downs just like many other people today, but I always try to do what is right.
Interviewer: Mr. Givens, are you aware of our current situation and how it will affect the future of all?
Mr. Givens: I am aware that things are looking bleak, but I also believe that there is hope and I myself hope to contribute so that we may progress as a human race.
(Interviewer taps his ear as if listening to someone and then nods)
Interviewer: Very good Mr. Givens. You have passed Phase one. We shall begin Phase two. Phase two is rather simple and easy to complete. You are no longer known as Mr. Givens. I shall refer to you as Adam from here on out. Is that understood?
(Adam nods in anticipation)
Interviewer: Adam, your data and information has been compiled. You are now being paired with a compatible partner that we shall call Eve. You don’t know anything about her or her past. All you need to know, is that she is now your other half and your partner from now on. You will meet her after the completion of Phase three. If there are no other questions, we will prepare you for Phase three.
(Adam stares in wonder)
Interviewer: Good. Thank you Adam for your contribution. Let us begin.
Thus the Adam and Eve project began.
