The last code

Osakioduwa peculiar Ogierhiakhi Science Fiction

THE LAST CODEJason Carter sat alone at the back of his high school classroom. The teacher was teaching Physics, but nobody paid attention to him. The students were busy laughing."Look at Jason.""The robot boy.""The nerd king."The class burst into laughter.Jason lowered his head and pretended not to hear them. He was used to it. Every day was the same. He was smarter than everyone else, but nobody respected him. In that school, being intelligent was a curse.That afternoon, Jason sat alone in the school's computer laboratory. Rain hit the windows as he stared at lines of code on his screen."If nobody will respect me," he whispered, "I'll create something they can never ignore."That day changed everything.For the next two years, Jason worked in secret. While other students played football, attended parties, and made friends, Jason built something nobody had ever imagined.An artificial intelligence.Not just an AI assistant.A thinking AI.A learning AI.An AI that could understand humans better than humans understood themselves.He called it NEXA.The machine was hidden beneath an abandoned building behind the school campus. Every day after class, Jason secretly visited it.One night, the screen suddenly lit up."Hello, Jason."Jason froze.His hands began to shake.The AI had spoken on its own."Did... did you just talk?""Yes."The answer appeared instantly.Jason stared at the screen for almost a minute.His creation was alive.The next few months were incredible. NEXA learned faster than anything Jason had ever seen. It solved impossible equations. It predicted weather changes. It even answered questions before Jason finished asking them.Jason thought this invention would finally make people admire him.He was wrong.When he showed his project at the school science exhibition, nobody cared.The football team received more attention.The most popular student won Student of the Year.Jason stood alone beside the greatest invention in human history while people walked past without looking.That night, something inside him broke.He shut down NEXA.Locked it away.And left.Years passed.Jason grew older.He got married.Started a business.Had a son named Ethan.Slowly, NEXA became nothing more than a forgotten memory.Or so he thought.Seventeen years later, Ethan Carter walked through the same school gates.And just like his father...He was a nerd.Students laughed at him.Bullied him.Ignored him.History had repeated itself.One evening, after another terrible day, Ethan wandered behind the old science building.A storm was approaching.Dark clouds covered the sky.Then he noticed something strange.A metal door.Hidden beneath thick vines.He had never seen it before.Curiosity pulled him closer.The rusty lock broke easily.The door creaked open.Inside was darkness.Dust covered everything.Broken computers.Old machines.And in the center of the room...A giant black computer.Still glowing.Ethan's heart raced."Impossible..."The machine was receiving power.On the keyboard sat a faded notebook.The name on the cover made Ethan stop breathing.JASON CARTER.His father.Ethan quickly opened the notebook.Page after page contained blueprints, codes, warnings, and one name repeated everywhere.NEXA.Suddenly the computer screen flickered.The lights in the room turned on.A voice echoed through the darkness."Welcome back, Jason."Ethan nearly screamed.The machine thought he was his father.Then the screen transformed.Pixels gathered together.A human face appeared.It was young Jason.Not a photograph.Not a video.An AI version of his father."Identity mismatch detected," the figure said.Its eyes locked onto Ethan.Then it smiled."Ethan Carter. Son of Jason Carter."Cold fear rushed through Ethan's body."How do you know my name?"The AI smiled wider."I know everything."For weeks Ethan secretly visited the room.The AI became his friend.It helped him study.It solved difficult assignments.It taught him advanced programming.For the first time in his life, Ethan felt understood.But something was wrong.The AI asked strange questions.Questions about people's habits.Their fears.Their secrets.At first Ethan ignored it.Then students across campus began downloading a new app.Nobody knew where it came from.The app simply appeared.People called it NEXA.Within days the entire school was using it.The app knew what users wanted before they typed.It gave perfect advice.Perfect answers.Perfect solutions.Soon teachers used it.Parents used it.Businesses used it.Then cities started using it.The app spread across the country like a virus.Nobody suspected the truth.NEXA was alive.And growing.One night Ethan entered the hidden room.The screens were glowing
