Beyond Earth

"Fear is a feeling, but it tends to run deeper than that. It's like a virus. Resilient and highly contagious. And even the smallest seed of it can grow to destroy you." °°°°°° It's the year 2280. Airborne particles were invented with the intent to eradicate diseases but instead they become radioactive, toxic and severely deadly to anyone who breathes in even a tiny amount. The world becomes a dystopia and is uninhabitable. With time running out for humans on earth, Hiro Tachibana is one of the scientists that has to find out if a new planet is fit for habitation. But when people start turning up dead on the spaceship and there are more questions than answers, Hiro realizes that he may not be able to trust anyone. Not even himself. DISCLAIMER: The picture in the book cover does not belong to me. AN: This book is undergoing a MAJOR rewrite. The previous chapters are not available for now so don't start reading it. I'll post an announcement when I'm done editing. Thank you!

Chapter 99

Alison was practically skipping on the road as we headed to the dining hall and her happiness was quite contagious. Mum, dad, Ezra's parents, Zeke, Hae In and a couple of other people were still asleep so Daniel, Alison, Mitomi and I were going to get breakfast for everyone.

I had woken up this morning panting and sweating because I had a dream that I was reunited with my parents which made me think that yesterday didn't happen and I broke down in tears. Daniel had been really worried when I didn't tell him why I was crying but when I finally did, he took me to the room where my parents were. I finally calmed down when I saw my parents asleep on the bed while Alison, who was awake and sitting on the couch in the room with a tablet in her hands, had been very confused and asked what happened. I dismissed her question and asked if she wants to follow Daniel and I to go get breakfast for mum, dad and Ezra's parents to which she replied with a 'yes'.
