My name is Alec.. Alec Embers
I was born outside the bubble, for a brief moment I got to see the blue sky and smell the fresh air. We were never sapost to be in the bubble. My dad was the chemist who was responsible for a working vaccine for the virus that made the world turn to a pandemic. He was seen as a medical genius and was awarded a lot of medals and awards for excellence.
And for my mother we'll... after my birth she disappeared into the population never to be seen by me or my by my father again.
I just have a picture of a woman I never come to know.

I've been inside the bubble for almost 16 years
As I've explained before we don't get to see our parents a lot me even less than the other children because my father is always working. I had to take care and raise myself. It's not really a problem for me tho I get to have 12 days a year off from school plus the free time we get after exams and tests. I also don't think growing up alone is such a bad thing. I don't like people anyway but it does get a little lonely so I go on adventures.

I've been in every place in the bubble I could reach. Every dark corner and halfway. I know the maze like education sector by heart, every halfway, room number and every one inside theirs individual dorm even the teachers. As you can you imagine I'm extremely curious, bored and lonely.

I'm the only person in the bubble who has blank test scores. I don't belong anywhere in the bubble. I'm smart enough to go into medical care but I don't have the passion for it. I'm good at building things but I only wanna build things that I  like. I love the animals and the grass in the farming sector but I can't even keep cactus alive. I am a good teacher but I don't even like children and scouting isn't even an option because no girl has ever joined the scouts and my body isn't exactly super muscular even tho my aim is fairly  good
"Oi Alec we're going to be late for history" a voice came from outside the dorm room
"Yeah yeah I'm coming!"  Alec yelled then took all of her stuff and threw it in her bag and rushed to her door leaving her room a mess as per usual.
