Science fiction and fantasy often collide, so close that the difference is a matter of opinion, but unfortunately the world doesn’t let it stay that way. The brilliant inventors of the world take what genius’s imagine and make them a reality years down the track. Such a man was David Cassidy. He was a genius, a man of foresight, and a man to whom his family was everything. He helped to develop a squadron of fighters for the Americans, then when they wanted to restrict his movements, he reappeared in the United Kingdom, developing fighter planes that could truly become unseen. They took his daughter to ensure his loyalty. She disappeared from custody, and Cassidy appeared in Germany, but this time he was a biochemist, working on re-engineering alligators and crocodiles, harnessing their minds and breeding them to obey orders from individuals. He failed to achieve it with the crocodiles, the reptilian beast unable to be tamed, and the Germans ended the program. Cassidy disappeared altogether from the pages of history.
But that was not the end.
History forgets it’s finest at times.
2145
Long, long ago, humanity had reached it's peak in peace and prosperity. The sad thing was that there was still war and starvation.
Overpopulation took it's toll, taking away room and a surplus of food. The world continued to die until 100 years ago, when Governer Zackly's great grandfather had come up with an idea.
What if we could halve the earth's population? What if, within a region, the strong will rise, one by one, to create a better, more efficient society. This was Zackley's vision.
However, every vision of change comes with bloodshed. The only way for the strong to emerge is if they eliminate the weak. And that is exactly what today's society is based upon.
I am Bertolt Hoover. I understand that I have to kill or be killed. On behalf of the region of Maria, I accept my challenge.
