Survivors

Home sweet home?

As I finish eating with Bellamy, I find Mom and Dad and tell them that I need to go back to camp.

'Dad?' I call out from the door entering the workshop.
I hear a groan and notice Dad being under one of his robots.
I walk round and see he is struggling to hold up the weight of the robot whilst doing the repairs.
'Here' I say as I lift the robot from the top, effortlessly.

'Ah' Dad says exhaling. 'Thanks Em' he says moving away from it. I drop it down and silently watch as he is in the zone.

He finishes the part he was working on and turns to me.

'You okay?' Dad asks as I help hold up the robot again.
'Yeah, I'm fine, never better' I say.
'Truth, tell me' he says.
'Okay, fine, Bellamy and I need to go back to camp to make sure everyone is okay, the radios have been silent but I just want to keep everyone in check, they are either going to be going sex mad or gonna act like barbarians!' I tell him.

'We have ran surveillance around the area and have discovered more people. They must have survived the bombs and the radiation. They are primitive, but they have weaponry.' He says.

'Jarvis, could you please make me a map, highlighting the popular hotspots for the surviving humans?' I ask loudly.

'This might take some time... I will contact you when it is done.' J.A.R.V.I.S announces to me.

I kiss Dad goodbye as I head out of the lab. I walk down the corridor calling out for Mom.

'Mom?' I ask as I keep travelling down the corridors. 

I walk to the bridge and find Bruce.

'Hey Bruce...' I say as I notice he is engrossed in his work. I make a purple light appear in front of him and it slowly helps to bring him out of his head.

'Uh... Hey sorry 'em I was looking at something and must'ave completely zoned out there for a second' He says, lifting his eyes from his work.

'What'cha doing?' I ask.

'I was having a look over what's left of the earth. I just had a thought. Those nuclear power stations are all still emitting their energy, at this rate, in 3 years the planet may actually explode with the combination of the nuclear plants explosions.' He says. 

I walk forward to look at the diagrams, and models. 

'What can we do?' I ask sadly.

'We didn't live just so in 3 years we can die. We have to stop this, reverse the energy.' I say.

'Em, I don't think we would be able to do that' Bruce says sadly.

'We could find Thor, try and get him to see if we can regenerate the planet, there must be a way, scientifically or magically.' I tell him.

He looks at me and takes my hand, 'Don't worry 'em we'll find a way to fix this'.

I hug him slightly and make my way down the ship, most of the people that were inside have made their way to camp and have helped to fix the wall and housing for everyone. Bellamy comes running up the corridor.

'Whats up?' I ask him.

'Oh...Uh, we just got a call from camp, Captain Amer- I mean Steve, he is helping to train up some of the delinquents. We heard that last night when a group went out hunting they were almost attacked by people.' He says.

'Is anyone injured?' I ask with concern.

'Just some minor scrapes and bruises' he says nodding.

'Bellamy, have you ever wondered what would happen if we could fix the earth, back to when it was most rich with life?' I say.

'I think the planet has recovered from the overpopulation and the damage caused from the bombings?' He says.

'I dont want to scare you, so this has to stay between us, understand?' I ask him and he nods.

'The planet's radioactivity has exploded. The nuclear power stations have a max of 3 years before they explode and kill us, but I might just have an idea to fix it.' Bellamy nods with interest.

'My thinking is, that we need to strip back the planet, back to before power stations and all modern living, back to the very beginning of man and re- build. I know this sounds crazy but i feel like there must be a way to do it.' Bellamy looks at me a little shocked. 

'I need to ask someone who is a little far away, and I was wondering if you would like to come with me?' I say to Bellamy, he nods and I smile.

'Time to visit Uncle Thor' I say walking down the corridor.
