Short

By John Flynn & Jimmy Flynn

Dying and on the run, a thief must transfer his consciousness into a new body.

In the near future, 25-year-old thief James Frumpkin retreats to a safe house after stealing a coveted plasma reactor. James’s boss, a mysterious voice on an untraceable phone, reveals that James contracted a fast-acting, deadly virus during the heist. Coughing and convulsing, James has only one option for survival: transfer his consciousness into a New Body—an android clone that shares 99.9% of his DNA—and deliver the plasma reactor before the authorities arrive. Will James escape in his New Body, or will the technology prove too good to be true?
