Arav dropped the phone. It hit the laminate floor, but the screen didn't crack. It just lay there, face up, the two green "YES" buttons glowing brighter and brighter until the whole room was bathed in that sickly, fluorescent light.

He reached for his shoe to smash it. But just as he raised his heel, the screen went black. Then the Nokia logo appeared. It was rebooting.

All except for one file.

In the root of the phone memory, a single .txt file, timestamped just now, with the name README_FIRST.txt .

There was no "No" button. Only two "YES" options.

Then the camera flashed.
