Yes, Marucho?

In a world who's politicians need compliance and obedience more than the support of it's voters, a new type of injection is circling. It's in its trial stage, you see. An end-all cure that should prevent the youth of the world from contracting several well-known and fatal illnesses. People from all over the world are offering up their young children to be part of the trial, looking toward a shining and healthy future for their loved ones. Most are selected for the study. All, in fact.
The cure, as it turns out, is an injection of several microscopic machines. They circulate throughout the body and place the user in a coma. The machines then transmit and connect with those in the other users, linking their brainways and locking them in a world in their own heads. It appears to be a rough copy of the world they already live in, however, the only people that live in it are the users- the kids and teenagers being subjected to the study. Because of this, the many systems and services run by other people quickly shut down and cease to function. It is in the ensuing panic that the users realize the other major difference between this world and the waking one. The world around them can be manipulated by their thoughts. What they will to be shall be.
The cure to the fatal diseases turns out to be the placement of the deathly ill into a sleep-like state in which, if their will is strong enough, they can live happily in a world where nothing goes wrong and their families, if their memory serves them well enough, exist alongside them. This can happen due to the fact that the entire world is a manifestation of the users' thoughts and brainpower. The machines stop all unnecessary functions of the body so that no disease can continue to spread. They'll live a long life inside a world of their own creation. The agency that created it just needs a good example of it's affects to patent the "drug".
One of the flaws they hope to work out is humanity's inherent desire to expand. They can't place the fatally ill into a world where they'll just live in a war with weaponry of unimaginable creative and destructive force. This flaw shows itself in the study as the world that started out curious, then turned to panic and then to relief fades into bickering and battle. The users are looking to build armies, to rule this infinite world and to take over. Those with more intelligence and quicker wits begin to kill off the slower ones, and, to the agency's horror, when they die within this drug-induced dream, all bodily functions shut down in the physical world as well, and the user dies.
At this point, it's impossible for the agency to take them from their dreams. The word of the evil things that had already happened and of the initial lie the agency told to the public- which was that the study was a long-standing research camp that would involve the injection of drugs and the simple documentation of blood-cell count and heart rate- would spread via the users and destroy the agency. As such, they're forced to sit back and watch as thousands of kids murder each other within the safety of their own minds.
Our characters would be users in the study. This is the plot I've come up with and didn't want to forget in my sleep. Is it alright? -
that first part about the politicians turned out to be irrelevant
whoops -
It seems interesting, but I'm so tired words are blurring together. I'll reread it tomorrow, but from the jist it sounds great.
-
Alright. Then I'll go to sleep now and bump this when I get back on. Goodnight, Milady. I love you.
-
Night, Marucho. Love you, too.
-
I am bumping this for you to review when you get the chance. I'm going out with my mother and my sister for a while and I'll well return most probably in about three hours. I love you. Farewell for now.
-
*and will return
-
I lied. I'm back now. But I'll be leaving again in maybe twenty minutes.
-
Makes much more sense after some sleep.
-
Is it alright?
-
It's good.
-
Lovely. I've a few things to do, but when I get back, we can start.
-
Alrighty~ I look forward to it.
