Months had passed since Roseanne's tragic death, and the once tight-knit group had grown distant. Azriel had changed a lot. He became cold and avoided his friends. The loss of Roseanne and his father Geo's injury, which left him in a wheelchair, took a heavy toll on him.
Today, a loud bell rang out, echoing through the settlement. Survivors began to gather, talking among themselves. The leaders, including King, stood at the front, ready to address everyone.
Azriel sat alone on the rooftop of the barn, Zach, BJ, and Reed stood nearby, sighing and looking worried. They had tried to reach out to Azriel many times, but he had shut them out.
As the crowd settled, King stepped forward. "Attention, everyone. We have an important reminder," he began. "In three months, meteorites will strike Earth."
"We have 3months left?!"
"Oh my god, I thought we have 1 more year?"
