Waking up

"Hurry!"

"I am trying this is an old system. I think I just started the waking of this thing." What am I hearing? Click... hiss...beep beep.

"Kevin what was that?"

"Hopefully the doors to the treasure they say is here."

Is this real? I am seeing several pods of other people also raising up to look around. What day is it what year?

"Kevin I don't think this is gold or silver safe. These are people." I looked to the door. There stood two humans in what looked like a wet suit in bright colors. It was shiny but tattered.

"This is the treasure that will save the earth. We don't need more people we need money and food." Kevin was angry.

"Now young men don't be so quick to judge us. What year is this?" I asked.

"Why does that matter?" He argued.

"I was put in here in 2020. I want to know how long I have been asleep has the time of viruses passed?"

The smaller one gasped "That was 2000 years ago. Before the flying cars and androids. Wow!"

"Shut up Dillon." said Kevin, "We have to get out of here before they catch us they will not take people for payment."

"On the contrary Kevin. This is a treasureturove of man kind that are pure. Your free debt and land is all yours for finding this lovely people." They nodded still backing up.

"Hello 2020 generation I am Dail Connor I own the city Connor Villa I offering you a great opportunity to live in my city. Will you join me?"

I stood back as several of the others asked questions coming forward and agreeing. I kept the two boys in sight. When the people sarge forward they ducked behind one of the beds were there was a vent. They quietly moved into the vent using tools to remove and put it back that came out of their arms. I followed as quietly.

"What are you doing following?" whispered Kevin waiting for the eight others following him.

"I didn't like his offer I get the feeling if I refuse he will make me." I whispered back. He glared at me before putting the vent back on in silence. I let him in front of me. We crawled for some time until Dillon opened another vent that seem to lead outside.

"I am not going to be responsible for you guys. I have enough to worry about with Dillon and my sister. So don't expect anything" Kevin said in a angry whisper.

"Sure thing mate." said Peter he was from Australia he is a fine builder and carver. Kevin was taken back looking at him with an odd look.

We heard the others and moved around the pile of trash. Earth was filthy piles of every vehicle imaginable and some I couldn't. Other piles are robot parts. All the building looked old and abandoned. A little farther was a escalator that went up to a floating city.

The group came up to it escalator we watched as they one by one went through there was a cover over the escalator that made lots of noise and lit up sometime causing them to scream.

Once everyone returns the city the escalator raised up. Then the city raised above the cloud dropping trash.

In that second there was people and animals that came out of the trash gathering and fighting over the trash. Food, clothes, and robots fell or are they bodies of their dead. One fell in front of us. The women in our group screamed. There was three of them three children and three men including me.

"What do we do now?" asked Talon my friend from school.

"We find a place to live." I offered.

"Shouldn't we find out what happened over the last decade to end up like this." one of the ladies asked.
