After Ender After

Althea walked through the mass of crowds stopping at the street like everyone else. Something was going on, she did not know what, that made all these people crowd and ruin her perfect day. She needed to see so she could give her sick mother an update on all things happening on New Earth. She pushed through the thick crowd till she got to the activity. She stared incredulously at the being in front of her. The bug-like eyes, the antennae, the spiny poky legs. She put together the description of what she saw in front of her and matched it with the description in her grandfather’s stories. They thought they were extinct, gone from all existence. But no, the thing lying dead in front of her definitely was real. The only one left in existence was now dead. Bugger.
