1 Apocalypse is Here

Its the year 3600 A.D. The world has fallen into chaos and nature is seemingly at war with every living creature. Only a few groups of human are alive but it doesn't seem that they will live longer.

But among these few survivors there is a man who has still not given up hope.

There are few people huddled together in the ruins of a skyscraper whispering to each other and just patiently awaiting their death. But suddenly a man came back and exclaimed joyfully " Guys I think I have found the location for the machine". Everyone acts surprised but this sentence seems to light the spark of hope in their eyes. One of them suddenly stands up asks the man in a stammering voice. "Do..es thi..s mean we can final..ly escape this helllll". The man answers this in an unsure tone " Maybe, but only Dr. James can confirm"

Suddenly someone barges right through the door with a smile on his face and a map in his hand. This was Dr. James, he was a tall young man with fair skin, a peculiarly coloured gray hair, blue eyes and a contagious smile. As soon as he entered the room the mood of the room seems to be elevated and the spark of hope in their eyes grows bigger.

" So I see that you are safe Michael" he said with confidence in his voice. " Yes, thankfully and I have also gotten the location for the last piece" Michael said while trying to relax on a nearby chair. James lays down the map quickly on the table prompting Michael to show the location.

Michael points it towards the outskirts of the city saying"But It's far too dangerous to go there in a group. The air is too toxic there and the Raks are also roaming there." Everyone starts talking and asking questions about who will go first but then a kid rises up and says" We don't have enough resources to make more than one trip to the outskirts. We have to go together all at once."

Michael tries to interrupt him but suddenly James slams his hands down on the table and says " Noah is right we will all go together. We will depart tomorrow at dawn. Everyone rest now, we have an important day tomorrow. " Everyone seems to quietly settle down and accept his decision. James seems to quickly leave the room to prepare for tomorrow's transportation.

Everyone has went to sleep and James is still working on a van. Noah then slowly comes to the room trying to avoid any unnecessary sounds. But James suddenly calls out Noah's name and surprises him. Noah is shocked and asks him " How did you know it was me? I was extremely silent the entire time". He is still working but tells Noah that" Only you stay up this late every night. So what do you want? Are you worried about tomorrow? " Noah nods his head in agreement but James reassures him saying" Don't worry about it. As long as I am alive nothing will happen to you guys. Now go back to sleep we have a big day tomorrow. " Noah looks at James with bright eyes and a big smile and goes back. James thinks to himself that he won't let anything ever happen to them as they are the closest thing to a family for him.
