They were higher evolved now
Capital punishment
no longer existed
But providing a lifetime of care
and incarceration
felt financially frivolous
and a waste of resources
Besides,
living for the criminal
didn’t feel like justice
for the dead
So they removed him from life
Cryogenic
frozen in time
125 years
Every life
he could have possibly known
would be gone
…
That’s why she worked tirelessly
Genetics
neural networks
nanotech
Despite everything
he was her life
and she would be there
when he returned
