Man woke on the floor of an unfamiliar living room. He couldn't remember how he got there. In fact, he couldn't remember anything.
I was protecting something. I think.
Man winced when he stood up. His head was really killing him. He went out the shattered front door, and started his long search for... something.

Ricardo peeled his face back like a banana peel and gently folded the weathered skin. A green motherboard whirred inside the contours of his face and lights flashed on and off. He fiddled with the central processing unit and something hissed. His mouth opened. Death is but a circuit board humming away into the night.
--Grant Wamack, Modern Ruins
