The computer screen went black. A moment later, the file deleted itself. On a high-tech server in an undisclosed location, a new file appeared in the "Success" folder: Elias_K83_Final.bin .

The file sat in the corner of a cluttered desktop, tucked between a cracked copy of a photo editor and a folder of old college essays.
