The room was dark and filled with a beam of light coming from a single window. The air, filled with the smell of old books, felt thick. Each step produced a small distant echo as Doug approached the only thing in the room — the desk and its occupant.

“What brings you down here?” said Xander breaking the silence.

“I’m looking for a record, a very old one” said Doug trying to hide his excitement. “How far do our records go?”

“Well, sometime around the middle of 21 century. Who are you looking for?”

“Let me take a look” said Xander turning on his screen.

Doug stepped up closer to the desk overlooking the monitor which showed an infinite list.

“Can you show only those with the original DNA? And a neural scan, probably made by one of the first NRI machines ever”

Xander reluctantly obliged and showed the list of names.

“Yes! This is exactly what I need!” said Doug with excitement. “Aarin… Abel… Anton! Let’s see…”

The file showed a bearded man in his thirties, average height and weight but most importantly the DNA was fully sequenced and the brain scan didn’t have any errors.

“I’ll grab this! Thanks!” said Doug and rushed quickly to his lab.
