Earth has been taken over and the human race doesn't really exist. There are traces of them in us but ultimately there is not one pure human left. This didn't happen overnight and I assure you that we didn't just kill them all for no reason. Well...we actually didn't kill them off at all but I can't explain that right now. None of the Young Ones (ones that are 18 or younger) are supposed to know anything about the past, but there are some that have, what They like to call, woken up. These people are hunted by Them; most can't escape this fate, but there is a few who do. So I guess They do have something to fear about the wokens because the ones who have broken free of whatever was placed upon them are much more powerful when given the opportunity to be able to grow. There have been some who were able to manipulate others minds without any detection. Sadly all known people with this gift die very young or collapse into a psychotic breakdown. My story began the moment I had the genetic liquid injected into my system.

The Only

I lost myself somewhere between space and time. I repeated my name over and over, refusing to leave myself behind. But the more I decintigrated, the more of myself I lost, until everything, my name, Timmy's smile, even my parents were forgotten. I found nothing but black space and white silence. The longer I stayed, however, the more vivid the colors became, and then they began to take shape. After what felt like hours, I was myself again, strapped to a chair with Jesse materializing in front of me. I'm Stasey. When the aliens attacked Earth, myself, my best friend Jesse, and my "friend" Timothy may have been the only people to survive. We're on a quest to find other survivors and potentially save our planet, but to do that we have to avoid being shot, eaten, or falling in love. But sometimes things work out differently than we expect, and we have to make the decision: sacrifice ourselves for the ones we love, or the ones we love for the ones we can save.
