Prologue: Why Bother, Crying in the Rain?
December 30th, 2017
¡°Excellent, now my first true blueprint is drawn, and my dream of inventing has begun!¡± cried Ben as he jumped from his desk in jubilation, ¡°Plan A for project Wingspan is complete. Now to contact Sean and the beginning can begin!
January 3rd, 2018
¡°I now open the first meeting of the Insanity Tech with myself, Benjamin Rain and my good friend and partner Sean Freefall, today begins the production of our first project, Project Wingspan in the production of our very own parachute backpack and Sumo Safety Suit,¡± announced Benjamin Rain to himself, Sean and the empty room.

¡°For as men hath lit fire and birds are beholden to spreadeth their wings, upon this day Insanity Tech is truly birthed in a grandiose manner, spreading its wings and lighting its own fire to burn infinitely against the ebbing of history,¡± concluded Ben as he finished his speech and was followed by a massive round of applause from both family and friends alike as he strapped on the S.S.S., locked on his backpack and foot weights before beginning the climb up the rock wall destined to be the test site of the first Insanity Tech dream realised and invented. Reaching the top Ben bowed his head in a confident and cheerful nod with his eyes full of mirth before jumping off of the cliff and freefalling a metre or two before he inflated the before releasing the parachute as it quickly inflated then deflated, catching in the wind as Ben soared like a hang-glider, before inflating the S.S.S. with the press of a button and disconnecting the parachute to roll to a stop, all the while sustained in a feet first position by the foot weights. Ben felt good as the S.S.S deflate and he drew himself to his feet, his family and friends cheering and running over to him.

With a burst of sparks from Ben striking some spare flint together it was done. They had finally finished the Double Jump Boots and they were proud about it down to the core. The product of a year and a half¡¯s work they were complete, with the mere touch of a button allowing a second propulsion skywards or ¡°Double Jump¡± if you will in mid-air.

Project Electro-Touch or as Ben fondly referred to it ¡°Lightning Hands¡± was done, a dual system pair of gloves with embedded A.I. control as tensing your hand while in contact with an organic being or electronic device would provide a light shock and rubbing them together and using the codeword would give a knockout shock or allow you to seemingly throw lightning at the target, ergo. ¡°Lightning Hands¡±. Fun.

The third member of Insanity Tech, Edward Frozone or Eddie in collaboration with the original duo of inventors builds the first thought controlled artwork through a large collection of laser pointer and a lot of squinting. Ben cries tears of joy when it draws a picture of the Lightning Hands at work. Lightning Hands is now a semi-official title for it.

With a final wave goodbye to the world, he dived into the wonderful freedom of dimension hopping and set a course on the interdimensional pirate ship ¡°the Infinite Freedom¡± to random as his friends waved him goodbye and the Infinite Freedom set sail into the portal to travel the Infiniverse in search of Infinite Wonders and to finally fulfill the eternal dream held within his heart of hearts.
To Build a World and Wave it Goodbye
In the end, I will wave worlds goodbye chasing my dreams, but they will forever remain in my heart, imprinted in my mind - Benjamin Rain
Chapter 1: To Build a World and Wave it Goodbye
February 27th 2018: UN World Summit
Benjamin Rain''s address to the World:
"The world has changed, and WorldTech is the change it needs. That which constrained and segregated us has fallen away in the river of time. But as our bindings have fallen away, we have yet to truly embrace our freedom, to embrace the possibilities of what we could together create and achieve. Through innovation, invention and a willingness to change the world, we have prospered, but there is still much to do. Thus, I call upon the UN to join together in creating WorldTech, to build a better future, our future, today.
Citizens of our world, of our nations, of our peoples are suffering, starving when we could feed them, dying of thirst with stained lakes and seas of in front of them. We need WorldTech to solve these important world issues and to ultimately lead a united humanity into the future.
Today, world hunger plagues more than 795 million people worldwide, yet as they starve we do not act. We haven¡¯t made changes we need to make, we pass by the changes that we should and WorldTech is that change. So make it. We have enough food, we have enough money, we have enough science to help, yet we don¡¯t act. I call upon the UN to act. For by acting now we save tomorrow and we better the world of all those that would live there.This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.
We currently have a population of more than 7.6 billion people. Each and every one of them deserves food to eat, yet more than a ninth of them starve every day. Every day that population grows and by 2050 it will have reached slightly less than 10. Billion. People. 10 billion human beings that require food to eat and a place to live. And in their expansion and urbanization of land to build houses and homes, more and more potential farming land will be removed from the equation, reducing food supplies worldwide. We have less than 32 years until this point and the clock is ticking. We need to act now before it is too late to act. No one need go hungry, no one should go hungry and no one will go hungry with WorldTech.
WorldTech is the solution to our problems and it needs to start now, at this conference, on this day. WorldTech is a research facility but it is more than a research facility. It is an organization, a collaboration between the nations of this Earth, the great undertaking of our time, financed by its member nations and staffed by the elite of this world. Building upon the strengths of its individual members and compensating for each others weaknesses, the challenges and threats that our human society faces could be laid to rest within our lifetimes. It for these reasons that I call upon the UN to help usher in this bright future for all of mankind."
End Transmission.
More than 14 years later, as Ben stepped into that gateway to his dreams he stopped for a moment to think and remember the good he had done and the lives he had saved, before wiping a lone tear off of his eye with a reminiscent smile on his face, eyes glinting with hope towards his final goal, his true dream, finally giving the world he had built a wave goodbye with the resolve to one day return, with his dream come true, before stepping into the portal and landing his metaphorical foot on the metaphorical ground, as he finally completed that first step towards his most treasured dream. Home.
