I could feel the heat against my skin. A blood curdling scream escapes my chapped lips.
"NoOoOooOoO!!", tears escape my eyes, but I couldn't brush them away like I did before, My hands were tied behind my back.
Mother always told me not to cry, for I am a strong man, but in these moments where I lost everything, where I am being branded by the government, whom I trusted, what could I do?

200 years in the future, the sun has gotten a lot bigger and a lot hotter. Sun flares happen too often, and some have even burnt out more than half of the once green earth. Everything seemed okay until billions of cases of viruses begun to spread like wildfire.
There was one particular one, Genesis, that made people go insane, it burned out all the humanity in their brains, turning them into just shells of the people who they once were.
But when a mutation of the disease was discovered, it made the infected become violent, terrorizing any one who was still not infected.
They became blinded to the fact that the people who they were hurting were one of their own.
Now fast forward 50 more years, a new generation begins, where they have to survive against the corrupt government and against the infected, without being touched by the Genesis disease.
We don't realize how good we have it until we lose it all.l
Welcome to the year 2040, ten years after a huge sickness killed off most of the population of citizens and scared half of the ones left to mars. When the sickness destroyed everything it left the world like it was when it started off, no buildings just open fields, forests, and clean rivers. Now there are few towns and the technology had been saved, letting the humans left with the lifestyle they had before... More less. But there are always the outsiders, like me. The ones that no matter what don't fit in. The ones that screw up in every town they have ever tried to live in. But I really don't care, its just me and my horse, that's all I need. Every town I've traveled to is the same, but once I get go Multoru, its a different story. Mysteries unravel, things from my past are revealed, and hidden things about myself I didn't even know. But can I handle things that I can't even imagine to come? (An original story)
