All my life, I feel like I have been alone. However, it was on one day that I felt completely different… On that rainy, foggy day, my world rose up and the sun finally shined in through the gathering clouds. On that day, I met her… as well as other people who changed my life forever…
It all started out on an ironically bright day. My morning was not any different from any other. Nevertheless, I felt different… Lonely, as some would call it. However, in the state the world is in right now, how could I not be?
Speaking of the world’s current state, my job has been demanding more and more people ever since a certain incident. I do not really understand it myself, but other people have informed me on it. From what I have heard, a piece of land from New Mexico had been mysteriously broken off and was pushed up into the sky with such a great force that it has stayed afloat for almost a whole week now. If you asked me how, and I told you in a few days, I would not even believe my own words. Anyways, I am getting ahead of myself.
You should know that I do not trust many people. These days, it is hard to even trust your own family members. Yeah, I know it is crazy. There is a good reason for that, though. Seeing as how our government has practically crumbled, everything is scattered. Me, I now work as a pilot. Although I have not really been operating airplanes for quite some time now, I hope I remember how…
Furthermore, back to that incident… a newly formed unit of gathered government officials have hired scientists and explorers to go up there and research the piece of land. Their progress has gone as far as building a small lab or facility already. Rumors say that there are some people that are revolting against the scientists, trying to ambush them. Thus, I think that they are hiding something on that piece of land and they do not want anyone to know about it.
When I went out to work at the warehouse/hangar, I took a shortcut. As I was walking down the street, large grey clouds began to block the sun. Shadows of the clouds crawled on the sidewalks, and rain began to fall. That was my life’s first turning point…
“Anaka, what are you doing?” A man’s voice shouted.
“Get away from there; it’s too late anyway!” A women's voice screamed.
The voices captured my curiosity. What was happening around the corner? What I saw made me gasp. A large, black ship was slowly taking off from the side of the street! Either they were in a hurry, or they were having issues. I think it was a little of both. I looked at the people who were screaming and shouting. They were looking that the black ship, and shaking their fists in the air. I followed their eyes to see what they were watching…
It was a young woman! She was hanging on for dear life by a net from the side of the ship!
