In the year 2020, humanity was nearly wiped out by an alien invasion. Earth survivors were ordered to pay a tithe ( one tenth of the word's population) every decade to prevent enslavement. We call these the Chosen, no one is quite certain what happens to the Chosen when they leave Earth. The year is now 2060 and I'm among the chosen, but one things for certain I refuse to go quietly.

If we stayed there any longer, we would have died. Earth was no longer our home, but instead a barren waste land from which we had to escape. Its calm blue oceans were replaced by big empty pits, and the green grass which used to cover our planet has now died, leaving all ground we tread on brown. The sun was getting too close to earth. It was going to explode soon, meaning we would have to leave. Either that, or die on what we called home. Not everyone left, not everyone was saved, but most of us are here in our new home. It's a huge space station called 'Earth Resides'. All of us who made it here, though, refer to it as our last resort. My names Mia. I've been here nine years. And I know the truth. ------------ Project Constellations
