Everest's Journal

Entry #1

Date: 10/18/4051: My name is Everest Smith, and I am 14 years old. My birthday is October 12th. The year is 4051. I'm going to record my experience in this place here in this book. I don't know what these people want from me, they brought me here or, that's what I was told. I only remember waking up here after falling asleep in my room at home. I don't know what they want with me. I want to go back home, and the air is musty here.

My room is small, and the walls and floors are made of concrete. There's a mattress on the ground with a small pillow and an old blanket that's been worn down. That's where I remember waking up. The ceilings are high, I can't actually see the ceilings. When I look up it looks like a black void, you can't see anything. There's also a tiny window about 10 feet up on the wall. It's too dirty to see out of and I'm too short too anyway.
