Frozen Death

Speculative Dystopian Fiction by Chris Bunton

The Antarctic research station was cold. Of course, it was, it’s the Antarctic.

Only the basic living areas were kept warmer for the human scientists, mechanics, engineers, technicians and maintenance people to be comfortable.

Not that The Corporation cared about the people. It only cared about money and control.

But it needed the human workers. For now. They were going to be replaced eventually with something a little less needy. Something that used less resources, and cost less money.

The station itself was ran by a new type of AI. It controlled virtually everything, so the workers can stay focused on serving the profit, of the Corporation.

The station itself was in the perfect place for the research it performed. A frozen wasteland that kept viruses from escaping. At least not until they were supposed to “escape”.

Don’t think that viruses were all that was worked on in that secret locale. Oh no, many black projects…
