The Underground Dome

Chapter One

Today was it, they day where they took me. I am so afraid of letting go and saying goodbye to my family. I don't know if I will ever see them again. All I can do now is treasure this moment forever.

It is December 18,4018 also know as the day I turn thirteen. This is the year where I become a teen. The year where I can escape into the real world and see things with my own two eyes. But I can't.

I will be taken away. Below land to an underground society where I am going to be leading to be a better person and also on how not to be dumb with other kids. Our society always thinks that children are not capable of much, that they just get dumber, and dumber. But that is not the truth at all.

We are not getting dumber, we tend to do things that we are not suppose to do. I don't mean that in a bad way, we just are ahead in our learning and they think that we will have nothing to learn ones we get older since we are learning everything quickly right now.

I know they are wrong. You only stop learning when you decide that you already know everything, but the truth is you don't.

The guards will come and get me any minute now. I am in the waiting room, part of the Testing building. The Testing is for when you get older. It determines you're job in the world, every one takes it. It provides information on who you are and what you're future holds.

It feels like the grey cement walls are closing together. The black concrete floors that match by wooden stool with 4 black legs made of metal make me feel like that our society has put me in a box with no escape, no way out. I am the last person left. My palms are getting sweaty, my heart is beating too fast. I can't control any of this. I wish I would just act nomad but how could I at a time like this.

Melissa Trinket. That's my name on the PA system. Suddenly I start having deep breaths and tears coming out of my hazel eyes. I throw my hazelnut hair back so none of it covers my face. My pale skin is starting to fell like it's black from the color of this building.

I stand up. I fix my black hoodie with white stripes look down at my blue shoes with white shoe laces that don't match my black pants at all. I take a step forward, one more. After 8 steps I am at the door. I oust the white knob on the black door with not window forward. I walk down the shallow hallway which is surrounded by white concrete walls which makes that place seem bigger than it already is. The grey cement floors are hard as rock.

I look up, there is a glass skylight that lets me see all the different levels of this building. I am on the first floor so I can see all 62 levels and the have glass floors with glass windows are huge grey walls with a water fall. Finally, I see my parents.

They are sitting at this long conference table on the same stools that I sat on. My mother looks worried and my dad is trying to tell my mother to calm down. I can see that she is crying through her sparkly blue eyes. She has the same hair as my and almost the same face. But I am more alike my dad.

I can see the guards coming towards me. There black uniforms with bullet proof shield on their chests blends with everything including their faces since they are covering it with a black helmet with glass on their eyes so they can see what's ahead of them.

Melissa they ask me. "Yes" I reply is a scared tone. The guards were were well built, I could see that since they were tall and had a lot of muscle. Both the guards hold on to one of my hands. They grip it tightly so I can't escape.

My parents are not allowed to say goodbye or anything like that. They have to show that they don't love me, that O can't be loved the they don't kill me. If you are loved they will kill you because you are becoming hope for these people to tell them what they are doing isn't right.

They start pulling me and walking toward the exit of the building which leads to an airplane, since the entrance of the underground society is in a secret location because our leaders don't want any escape.

I don't want to go through this, I don't want to go. I start liking them with my legs while we make it through the back exit of the Testing centre which is open and has no door to it. They exit leads to a hovercraft. It looks like an airplane inside of a grey room which also matches its wings and the main color of the hovercraft.

I know they don't even feel the pain of me kicking them. They can't since they are protected with the suit they are wearing in every part of their body. If only there was a way I could get inside their body and control their minds. But I know that these paranormal things only exist in books, not in real life.

I can't believe that there was nothing I could do to stop any of this. I didn't want to say goodbye to the world yet. No ever. But we all have to say goodbye someday. Going down is like going to hell. I don't want to be a slave. I don't.

I enter the hovercraft and can see that five out of ten of the seats are already filled up. All of us are not allowed to talk to anyone during this trip because our society is very strict about these types of rules.

I sit in the black electronic chair and buckle up. This was it. I had to say goodbye to everything now. I could hear someone from the speakers saying 1,2,3,4,5 and before I knew it the hovercraft was in the air.
