Starside

"Star light, Star Bright- the first star I see tonight..."

The world had changed. She had felt the impending changes for years, from moment to moment, she watched the world fall prey to the lies, the empty promises and the ever-impending doom. But it came without warning-
And now...now here she was on the other side of the universe, knowing that things on earth were decaying at best- and he was down there in the midst of all of it.

Haley Anne Rochester has spent the majority of her life on a planet few even knew had existed in their time. At the age of 12 she was whisked away by her father's company to save her from the chaos that had ensued earth after the FEC took over the governments around the world- dividing the people and controlling them with the promise of power... a form of power that gave them more control and power over the people than ever before. Who knew Free energy could be so damning?
She sure had no idea. Of course, what twelve-year-old really seems to know any of that? Thomas did.
Thomas Bell had been her best friend for most of her life as a child. They became fast friends as his father worked for hers, on what they had no idea, nor did it effect their lives in the least- until it did. When the world started to become unhinged- so did they.

Now she wished she had listened.
