In the year of 2212 seven infants were abducted at birth. It was an alien abduction. The Septonians to be exact. They have been known by the human race for decades. The children reappeared at the age of seven and were marked and given different elem...
The truck making a beeping noise snatched me out of my monotonous driving trance. I looked at the gas gauge to see that the gas light had came on, telling us that we were running low. I checked how many miles we had left and it read that there was barely 40 miles left before the tank is empty. I cursed underneath my breath banging my fist against the steering wheel, causing Ziya to jump out of her sleep. She rubs her eyes looking at me confused as I tightly gripped the steering wheel keeping my gaze on the dark road ahead.
"What's wrong?" Levina asked peeking between our seats.
"We only have 40 miles left before we run out." I sighed shaking my head "Hopefully it's a gas station by the time we run out, or we fucked." I shook my head.
"We're gonna make it, guys." Kaori said causing Levi and Ziya to look back at her confused.
I look at her all the way in the back row through the rear view with a confused look also.
"How so?" I questioned with squinted eyes
"I started to feel vibrations coming from that direction not too long ago." She pointed ahead "The more we've driven, the stronger the vibrations has gotten. It's something big, I can tell you that. Hopefully it's a city." She explains.
"Hopefully..." I mumble watching the white lines on the road zoom by.

The number of miles we had left slowly continued to drop the more and more we rode along this road. There has not been one car to drive by us since we've been on this two lane highway. I've lost count as to how many tumble weeds I've hit or drove past. And now that it's dark out, I have nothing that will keep my mind awake any longer. I could feel myself nodding until I looked into the distance and seen what looked like a halo of lights over the horizon.
"Hey guys..." I say glancing back at them really quick before averting my attention back on the road "I think Kaori was right..." I say as I could see the silhouette structures of buildings from the bright light coming from the city.
My heart fluttered at the thought that this might actually be a city with people and food and hotels so we could rest. But then again it could also be a trap of some sorts. Entering into an unknown city can be dangerous. Especially with people who's never seen the outside world and has been locked away from society. You never know what dangers could be awaiting on the other side of that welcome sign. We soon approached a green highway sign with an arrow pointing towards a ramp that lead to a main highway. It takes us no time in entering the city.
"Holy shit..." I hear Taji mumble just as we got near a neon sign saying,
"Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas Nevada"
