Then he thought about Tom's theory, which was, in fact, his own. If he experienced it, then it was real. He nodded and raised his voice; his throat wasn't parched anymore.
"Fuck you, Rixon! I've found nature, and no matter what you do, you can't take that away from me."
The logo stayed longer every time it appeared, and all of the aches and pains in his body had vanished. His hand was no longer bandaged, and there was no sign of injury.
Throwing his middle finger up in the direction of the tower, he continued, "I beat your stupid fucking game!" Looking at the sky again, he said, "I've won, Tom. No matter what they do, they can't take this experience away from me. I perceived it, so that's all that matters, right? You existed. You, Rory, and Thalia were real. I'm the one who chooses my reality, not them."
His legs then buckled beneath him, and he fell to the side as the Rixon logo dominated his vision for about ten seconds. When the world reappeared, his face was just millimeters from the delicate flower. As he stared at it, the edges of his view darkened and closed in.
Soon, all that was left of the flower was a pinprick of pink. A smile sat on his face. The past several years were real because he'd given them permission to be real.
He'd won.
His world then went black.
No sight...
No sound...
No smell...
No taste...
No feeling...
...Logged off.
Ends.
"Nothing is true, everything is permitted."
Friedrich Nietzsche.

About the Author
Michael Robertson has been a writer for many years and has had poetry and short stories published, most notably with HarperCollins. He first discovered his desire to write as a skinny weed-smoking seventeen-year-old badman who thought he could spit bars over drum and bass. Fortunately, that venture never left his best mate's bedroom and only a few people had to endure his musical embarrassment. He hasn't so much as looked at a microphone since. What the experience taught him was that he liked to write. So that's what he did.
After sending poetry to countless publications and receiving MANY rejection letters, he uttered the words, "That's it, I give up." The very next day, his first acceptance letter arrived in the post. He saw it as a sign that he would find his way in the world as a writer.
Over a decade and a half later, he now has a young family to inspire him and has decided to follow his joy with every ounce of his being. With the support of his amazing partner, Amy, he's managed to find the time to take the first step of what promises to be an incredible journey. Love, hope, and the need to eat get him out of bed every morning to spend a precious few hours pursuing his purpose.
