Rule Number One:
Trust the System implicitly. We always have your best interest at heart.
In the Beginning, humanity was nearing its end. We were the cause of our own demise, and we were determined to take the rest of the world down with us. But from the ashes of our fallen ancestors rose the savior of all generations to come. The System brought order to our world. The System brought peace. The System saved us.
We trust the System.
We love the System.
The System always knows best.

THE MAIN EVENT | Book 1
It's been exactly a hundred years since a nuclear explosion destroyed the entire earth, making it unable to live on it as the radiation would spread and rise quickly, becoming deadly minute by minute, killing half the lives on earth. Some of us got to survive with the help of the government which built an entire city that would protect everyone from the virus that appeared right after the radiation went away. The city was like a fortress, no one could enter and no one could leave...except the people executed who defied the government rules. But who thought that...together they might witness the end of their world?Complete
The Rejects
There's order to everything. Everything has a pattern, a set of rules that keeps it functioning. Without it, organisms die, governments fail, civilization collapses. There's a reason we're the only ones left. We had order, while the rest of the world didn't. And, as far as we know, it may soon be our responsibility to keep the order. Order that's been maintained for decades - 105 years to be exact. 106 in 138 days. This is basic knowledge. Without order, we'd all be dead.

WHERE TO NOW? (M/M) 18+
I was used to the quiet. The isolated life I had made for myself felt safe away from the greed and carnage the world left behind. The apocalypse wasn't supposed to happen, we all thought it was an earthquake - an event that wouldn't mean anything in a few days, let alone be remembered in the history books as the worst day in human history. But now, we starved, killed and survived the horrors that walk the earth. What else could we do? I was fine, safe, content in my cabin, but that was all before. Before I met Damien. _________________________________________ "What's wrong? Do you not see this?" "They were scaring you, were they not?" "Yes, but.."
