"Hello, this is Dr. Jack Bloom...The date is... 2099 - 07 - 03

Immortality has always been the final goal for great beings of the past. The conquerors and rulers of the world, the scientists and heroes. No human had been truly free from the bonds of time, the constantly flowing river that binds all beings as 'mortals'.

The first and arguably the greatest emperor of the great Chinese empire and his creation of his gigantic tomb and Terra Cotta soldiers that guard his spirit. Many other Chinese, Goguryun(Korean) and Japanese kings and emperors followed suit with firm belief of it existing.

Gilgamesh, the ancient Sumerian king pursing immortality after witnessing the death of his friend and searching for the legendary boat 'Noah' fruitlessly.

Even Europe wasn't an exemption, stories of the explorer Ponce de Leon searching for the 'Fountain of Youth' all across the Caribbeans and finding the land we know today as Floria, U.S.

All they have behind are their legacies. Simple myths that historians and students learn of and dismiss. Their fruitless efforts only brought countless disappointments and disaster.

Nobody believes in immortality anymore. After all those tries?

Not the usual kind at least.

People dream about it, fantasize about mythical creatures and beings that may have existed or still do... A bunch of crap all that is.

Anyone who hears of this recording, let the world know. That I, Dr. Jack Bloom, the very scientist that the world shunned has achieved immortality. Artificial immortality.

I am the one and only immortal of this plane.

Then where am I now you ask?

Everywhere.

"Or at least I hope so."
