Kiara woke up in a small, desolate room. Her hollow words sipped out of her mouth, "w-where am I" she said in a whispered, hollowed voice. Different from her typical high, excited pitched voice, you can tell she is scared. She lifted her chin up only to see more wall. A few seconds later the room lit up in a dark red colour, a robotic-like voice then can be heard, "Welcome, my children. You have been gifted with the opportunity to be our test subjects. Your journey starts now..." The voice then ended and a door in front of me opened, the bright light shined through nearly blinding me. "What is this.." I thought as I slowly stumped to the entrance with the voice's voice echoing through my head, "Your journey has just begun....Your journey has just begun....Your journey has just begun..."

Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!
