Mind Scanners
BRAIN DRAIN
Mess with people’s heads in MIND SCANNERS
By Andy Kelly
The Structure is a dystopian megacity ruled by a government that values order and efficiency above all. And if someone shows any signs of what it considers to be mentally divergent behaviour, it sends in a Mind Scanner (that’s you) to probe around in their brain with a series of disturbing, invasive machines and ‘cure’ them, turning them into its idea of a model citizen.
The problem is, these machines also completely drain the subject of their personality. And what The Structure considers ‘mentally divergent’ might just be an eccentricity, or a slightly offbeat view of the world. It wants a population of dead-eyed drones who will blindly obey its commands and never question its leadership – and you’re going to help it.
