         My name is Lily Qater. I am here to tell you the life of Planet SubZero.

        I come from Earth, a small planet off the outskirts of the Milky-way Galaxy. Earth has shifted one light-year off-orbit, causing us to shift out of the galaxy: no light, no food, no trees; nothing. We are an attached planet of Earth, called Promian. Over a thousand years ago, scientists found a way to expand our land: by attaching another planet to ours by a gravitational pull. The task was a success, but would backfire. Our leader, President Talis Termanin, became greedy and wanted more land. So he wished upon and became a reality. He added thousands of planets, ranging from oceans to lava. But then one day such went majorly wrong. The President added the Sun to our gravitational neighborhood. All ten-billion people in our empire perished for good. The only planet left was my planet, Promian.

        Here I stand, watching this giant planet, burn, freeze, and permeate. My planet is small and blue: full of arctic animals, frozen water, and my friends. Amelia, Tunic, and Milly, my 3 friends, rule the planet. Amelia, Milly, and I are girls, in which we build; Tunic is a guy, who hunts. It may seem like we have no resources, but we have plenty.

        Our land is flat, cold, and breezy. We have no mountains, hills, or ridges. We have no trees, flowers, or bushes. We have a single house, that resides in the middle of the ocean. Smaller than tree, but bigger than my hand.

        There is one thing that is unknown about this planet: the core.
