 It was a perfect world. 
 
 Nobody fought. 
 
 Nobody starved. 
 
 
 Nobody was ever harmed, because it would be like one cutting off their own arm. 
 
 
 Humans had evolved, their mental consciousness linked. Thoughts and feelings shared between every human. The Link was shared by all. Every child born was planned, every decision made was voted upon. Everyone had become equal, because it was no longer a fight over single bodies. It was only they. When two shared a bond like no other, lovers as the old world would call them, this was called MentalLink, it was stronger than the Link. It made the two people closer than ever, without being able to read thoughts. The two were not only part of one, they were one. 
 
 
 
 The Link was essential to every human. It shared knowledge, education, happiness, and death. Even though could now feel every emotion, see through another's eyes, the verbal language slowly dying out. When a child was born, they celebrated as one. The evolution caused more humans to become sterile, to have more miscarriages. One child every year. It never altered much, the human average age was close to 150. 
 
 
 
 When Jamie gave birth to her boy, Konnyr, son of Dustin, both parents never felt the Link. They were shocked, scared, the world was. They should all be able to feel this child, unless it died immediately, which many had assumed. Doctors took him away, assuming he had n't survived his birth, confused seeing him perfectly healthy. 
 
 
 They all saw him perfectly healthy. 
 
 
 A boy not born into the Link. 
 
 
 They came up with a word. Singular. He was forever to be alone, to never share the Link. 
 The first one since the Evolution, over 300 years earlier. It never occurred to them, that the Human race should be made up of many Singulars. No new ideas to be shared, because the Link often only solved problems they thought important, not for advancement. Everyone had a place, everyone was part of the Link. Konnyr was the single symbol for hope that the human race would start over again, better than before. 
 
 
 They did n't see it that way. 
 
 
 
 They let him live, because they could not kill the child, in a compound. A laboratory. His eyes were extraordinary, most eyes from the humans in the Link were dull cookouts of what they could have been. His eyes were a brilliant green with blue trimming and gold specks. They wondered what it felt like, to be disconnected from something that was like a simple extension from your body. 
 
 
 
 They wondered, but none ever tried to Disconnect. 
 
 
 
 Konnyr grew up as an attraction. A monkey in a zoo for one pair of eyes, but the whole world to see. He had his own ideals, his own thoughts, his own voice. No matter how much he wanted to use them, he was kept silent, until he was ready to use it. His own weapon that nobody else had; freedom.
