The Last Hope

Chapter 3

My god. I did not know someone could talk this much. During all of this, it seems as if I have been given a complete biography of her day, and We have been sitting here at most 1-1 1/2 hours. All of the people from my train have gotten off, and they are now sitting in the rows in front of me. I suspect another train has just gotten here because I am seeing people arrive that were not on my train. I still really hope we will get an explanation of what is going on. It is killing me not knowing.

" And that is why, I believe we are going to be killed in our sleep, and then eaten by cannibals." She exclaimed. She sat there just talking and talking and talking and talking. She would not shut her big mouth. So, if she will not shut it, I might as well use it as a distraction from all of this nonsense.

" So... what is your number?" I asked her.

" oh my number is HF-6-7-4-23-8. I feel like 7 is my lucky number. Like, I just have this really good feeling like it will save my life in the future or something like that. Do you think we will get to name ourselves in the future? If we do get to name ourselves, I think I would want to be named Holly. It just sounds so joyful and happy! Or maybe I could be Teresa. The name Teresa just seems like an adventurous gal who loves animals, talking, and partying! What would you want to be named?"

" I guess I would be okay with anything, but I like the name Jay."

" That seems like such a guy name. Like I can just picture a guy with dark brown hair, wearing a grey beanie, sitting at a cafe with me. I would be getting lost in his green eyes, and-"

"What do you think is on stage?" I interrupted.

" I honestly have no clue. Maybe they want your brain or they are looking for a specific gene or trait, and that machine is the only way to see if someone has that gene."

" I could actually see that happening you know. Maybe they are looking for someone... someone who is smoking hot or someone who is telekinetic. Or Maybe this is all one big prank."

" oooooooh that very well good be it!" She giggled.

"I don't know, it could be, but why would they erase our memories?"

I let out a laugh, and suddenly the lights went out. Screams erupted everywhere. No one knew what was happening. Mechanical noises were heard all around. My new friends and I were hugging each other. We were both scared. A long and wide white screen was dropping from the ceiling. Was this finally it? I about to find out what's going on? Suddenly an older man around the age of 50 showed up on the screen.

"Hello. I am your savior and leader."
