Chapter 4 The Hand of the Betrayer The ruined city was a labyrinth of shadows and broken glass, each shattered window a black, hollow eye watching our frantic movements. We had been running for what felt like an eternity, the symphony of screams from the plaza now a distant, terrible memory. The purplish sky, now a permanent feature of our new world, cast a sickly light on the concrete landscape. I, the all-American athlete, was still in top form. My breathing was controlled, my stride was even, and I could feel my physical endurance carrying us both through the urban wasteland. “This way,” I said, my voice steady. “The remains of that pharmacy. It should be structurally sound. We can hole up there for the night.” Thomas, breathing heavily, simply nodded and followed my lead. We ducked inside, the dust on the floor stirring into a choking cloud. We collapsed in the center of the room, our backs against a display counter. The quiet was a relief, but it felt temporary. ...

    Thomas the story of answering the call.

 Chapter 3 The Oration of Serenity The roar of the crowd was a symphony to my ears, a testament to the carefully cultivated devotion that bloomed wherever I spoke. Tonight, it was paradise city , a mid-sized city in what they still quaintly referred to as Lights world. The holographic banners depicting my image, radiating benevolence and wisdom, fluttered in the manufactured breeze above the vast plaza. They saw what I allowed them to see: the architect of a new Eden, a beacon of hope in a world weary of strife. From the elevated stage, bathed in a soft, unifying light (a touch I always insisted upon), I surveyed the faces before me. Their eyes, filled with a mixture of awe and trust, were mirrors reflecting the carefully crafted narrative I had woven over the decade. World hunger, a stain on their history, was eradicated. Wars, those barbaric relics of a less enlightened age, were a distant memory. The disparate nations had finally, willingly, surrendered their petty squabbles to ...

       Chapter 2  The Fall from Grace. The world wasn't supposed to scream. Not like this. Not a dozen different screams all at once, each one a different shade of raw, uncontained panic. My personal transport unit, a marvel of clean energy and frictionless motion, shuddered to a halt. The air filled with the acrid, coppery scent of blood, a smell that had no place in this perfect world. Just a moment ago, I had been enjoying the familiar comfort of my brother’s quiet company. The sun was setting perfectly. The city was glowing. This had to be a malfunction, a system-wide glitch that would be corrected any moment. The holographic monument to Light, our creator, our guide, our world’s golden architect, had just flickered out of existence, replaced by a grotesque, jagged image. My mind, trained for efficiency and flawless logic, immediately began running diagnostics. This was a system-wide failure, a total corruption of the public display network. The sight of tha...

Chapter 1        The Perfect World The air in prosper city  tasted of fresh-cut grass and the sweet scent of hydroponic gardens. Everything was clean, quiet, and efficient. I stood on the corner of what used to be a busy intersection, now a serene pedestrian thoroughfare, watching the world move with a grace I could never seem to muster. People strolled by with genuine smiles, their faces illuminated by the gentle glow of the city’s smart-grid. It had been decades since the world had known conflict, since Light had unified the globe and promised an era of unprecedented peace. For my younger brother, Edwin, this was a world he was born to thrive in. Edwin glided to a stop beside me on a personal transport unit. He wore the crisp, unwrinkled uniform of a high-ranking city planner, a position he had earned with his brilliant mind and charismatic personality. Edwin was a favorite of the local governance committee, a shining example of what Light's per...
