Dusk

Chapter 5

We get on this thing that hovers over the floor but only over these green lines. First I'll take you to the training room. The platform zooms as we stand on it. It reaches a door and it automatically opens. We go in and there's maybe 80 people training, Maybe more. Some shooting guns at targets, others hand to hand combat, you name it people are doing it. It's a huge room with a track to run on and an exercise room even a yoga room. "People like to come here on there free time. Which is usually really early like now." She says. We walk into the middle of the room and one by one everyone started looking at us. I'm not sure exactly why. They start whispering to each other. "Why are they staring at us?" I ask my sister, "There's not one person here that doesn't know who you are." She says. I'm not too sure how to feel about that. Having everyone know who you are, I kinda like it but at the same time I don't like the attention.

"Come on let's go see the rest of the place." She says. As we leave the room I can feel there eyes follow me as we leave. We get back onto the platform and it starts going. It passes by these giant windows and outside them looks like giant giant biospheres. Each one with a different landscape. A normal forest , a jungle, an African plane and I think some others but I'm not sure. "What are those?" I ask. "Those are the Creature Bios. There hold every kind of species. In case something happens to the earth, we can still take these to another planet. In the meantime we're trying to DeExtinct some creatures that humans have destroyed. Like the carrier pigeon. Creatures like that. Dinosaurs are still a maybe for obvious reasons. Otherwise we have almost every other species. Only a couple left." She finishes, "Can we go in there?" I ask. "Not just yet. Soon though." She says. "Let's move on." We go further and we reach a door that says "LAB" there's a keypad on the side of it. We get off the platform and my sister goes over to the key pad and presses 9578. I'm not sure why I wanted to remember it. The door slides open and we go in. Men and women dressed in lab coats studying things in a big room. Chart and equations everywhere. "This is where we create the creatures. They study everything they need to create a living creature, very complex. We just started to unlock the secrets of it in the past year. The idea is they would be able to get all the DNA they needed from the bones of say the dodo bird. If there was something wrong with it we would take the gene from another animal for the growth. We can make things grow bigger or smaller just by which genes we insert." She says. We walk around looking at the all the equations. When I look at them I start to understand them. I take the chalk and I go blank. When I come to again I see a giant equation written out. "Did I do that?" I ask everyone staring at me. My sister just nods yes and is shocked on what just happened. One scientist comes up to the wall and studies the equation and all at once he says "You did it........ you figured it out......... how I'm not sure of....." he says. "What did I figure out?" I ask, "We can complete the formula to clone the carrier pigeon."  He says. "I'm not even sure how I did that." I say kinda worried. "I think this is a little much for me to take in all at once. Can we just get to our rooms." I ask Kota "Yeah....... let's go......" she says staring at the board.

We leave the room and get onto the hovering platform. It starts to take off. It takes us outside and to these small buildings that look like miniature houses,  but like it would fit maybe one big room. I get off first and my sister hands my keys and i unlock the door to the house and it's exactly how i pictured it. A big room with a living room in one corner, a kitchen in another and a bedroom and a bathroom. All open except the bathroom. I walk over to the bed which is on the ground with a wood plank lining it. I flop down on the bed. I'm out cold.
