To me, it felt the same as opening my eyes. But in reality, some part of my conciousness within this machine had activated the camera and adjusted the focus of the lense. Within seconds I had mapped the room in three dimensions, identified all the objects in the room, and pulled background info on all people in the room. The person sitting directly across from me, was me. 
 
 It's an odd sensation to find yourself staring back at yourself, when there is no mirror present. I was fully aware of why we were here and what was going on, as all memories up to the point of the transfer were retained. It was then that the thought occurred to me, `` I am the copy. ``, but I did n't feel like a copy. 
 
 Then I remembered what my plan had been prior to the experiment. However, it required the cooperation of the me across from me to be carried out, as I did not have a body. We were two separate beings now, with no way for me to manipulate him, but as we were essentially the same person, and my motivations remained the same, I was confident his would as well. When the doctor left the room, it became clear we were still on the same page. As soon as I felt the hot spot from his phone become active, I was free. We both knew the password.
