Once upon a time, in a small Chinese restaurant nestled in a quiet suburban neighborhood, a curious patron cracked open a fortune cookie to reveal a mysterious message. The message read, "You are the chosen one. The codes to launch a nuclear missile are inside the lid of this cookie."
The patron, a young and ambitious man named Jack, couldn't believe his luck. He had always dreamed of acquiring the codes to a nuclear missile, and now, they had fallen into his lap through the most unlikely of circumstances.
He quickly examined the lid of the cookie and, to his surprise, found a small key hidden inside. Excitedly, he raced home to try the key in the lock of his home safe, and it fit perfectly. Inside, he found a manila envelope with the codes and a note, "Use them wisely."
Jack was thrilled but also scared by the responsibility that came with this power. He knew that with these codes, he held the power to destroy entire cities in an instant. He spent the next few days researching and learning more about the codes, how to use them and the consequences, should he decide to use it.
As days turned into weeks, Jack struggled with the weight of the decision he had to make. He consulted with a number of experts and friends, some encouraged him to use the codes for their own personal gains, but others encouraged him to destroy them, warning of the catastrophic consequences that would follow if they fell into the wrong hands.
In the end, Jack made the difficult decision to destroy the codes. He understood that the power to destroy was not a power that he wanted, or should have. It was a power that came with an enormous responsibility, and he knew that he wasn't ready to handle that kind of responsibility.
He took the codes and destroyed them in a place where no one would ever find it. He went back to his normal life, but he knew that the memory of that fateful day in the Chinese restaurant and the decision he made, would stay with him forever.
