"It's coming...ITS COMING" my mother shrieked as we watched the small from fly towards our house. I opened the front door and there it was, sitting there on our doorstep like that was it's job. Suddenly a hologram appeared from the top of the drone and I recognized the face of our leader, Samuel Loriman, staring at me. "Congratulations on your sixteenth birthday!" He boomed "inside this drone there is a card. On that card you will find a brief description of the man or woman you are to wed, what job you will acquire, and how many kids you will have, along with their names." He top of the drone slowly opened and out popped a fairly small piece of white paper. "Remember, any deviation from this card or distraction of this card will be seen as an act of rebellion against the great land of Acghoa and its people and shall be treated as such." I reached down and picked up the card, barely registering the dictator's words of warning and good luck. Holding my breath, I tore apart the wax seal and read my apparent fate. The farther along I read, the more my mouth dropped.
