Brain was a happy place where all the memories lived together. There were occasions of mistrust but it seemed like a good place to live.
Like every society, there were some unsocial elements in Brain too. But the good memories could keep them in control easily.
But something changed in Brain. Negative thoughts came in large numbers. They were heavily armed and were well trained for combat.
The good memories, the core defence of Brain, were helpless. They lacked the necessary skills and the “good will” wasn’t enough.
All the memories were terrified. To make matters worse, the bad memories colluded with the negative thoughts. They leaked vital intel about the defence.
Once the good memories surrendered, all hell broke in Brain. The negative thoughts became unstoppable. They tortured the memories to death.
In this time of terror, the memories needed a leader. Someone, they could look up to. Hope came to their rescue.
