Daily Flash Fiction Challenge

I live on my computer always learning by each website I come across. I follow only the interesting and fringe sights. A while ago I was playing on you tube and found a clip of an old movie called “Which way to the front”. It was auto playing from the last thing I had watched. Suddenly it switched to full screen and the actor in the movie clip turned as if staring at me and said “What’s the Password?” I was intrigued it looked like he was asking me. The clip repeated it again and this time it had a box that I was able to type in. My mind started to run through different password permutations. I am good at finding password so I started to put in all the usual and then my original search that lead to this clip and typed in my go to password “F R I N G E”. As soon as the password was typed my computer started to flash and upload what I thought was a virus. I flipped on my antivirus and tried to stop it. Screens started pulsing and images or computer hackers and wars started flashing in. My mind began to blank and I couldn’t move. I sat frozen with my fingers on the keys and my eyes on the monitor. Then my webcam came on and a man appeared. What he told me is classified to all but those that know the password. All I can tell you is that I was drafted into a war few know about and can fight. I type this letter to warn you not to do as I did and to stop your searching cause you won’t like what you find. Trust me you don’t want to live on the fringe.
