The fingerprints of a nuclear war have yet to fade 800 years in the future. Humans considered earth inhabitable, so they took to the sky - creating Sectors around the world that float hundreds of feet above old city ruins. The Sectors are protected by nearly impenetrable barriers that keep the air within safe and clean. Since the dawning of the nuclear apocalypse, humans have only known progress and advancement in nearly every needed resource.
 
Landing Day changed everything.
 
When an alien race set to destroy life on earth invades, humanity is nearly devastated; however, Sector Darwin's scientific achievements and military capabilities combated the Visitors and quickly won the waged war with tremendous casualties. Now, 20 years later, Darwin has developed the solution to balance the crippled male population. Biobots have the ability to reproduce and protect the world against potential future threats. The only question other skeptical Sectors raise is where did they come from?

**This is my first draft, which will never see the light of day in any publication ever.  I've scrapped this for multiple reasons, but Ettrix still wanted to say hello to the world. She's a big muse who won't shut up!

100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)

We had a choice and took the money. We are two teenagers who are strangers to each other. Now everything is depending on us. We are being sent eight years into the future because World War III must be STOPPED. There's just one problem. These robots are like nothing we have ever seen before. Beyond what we consider artificial intelligence. Did they exterminate the humans?
