Skyfall

[Work in Progress]
"Once in a great while mankind unlocks a secret so profound that our future is altered forever. Fire, electricity, splitting the atom..." Our next profound idea was living in space.

We knew it was coming. Once we found out, we planned for it. But it wasn't enough. The event became known as Skyfall. The earth was in decay. Carbon dioxide is suffocating the planet. It has become a barren wasteland. Rain stopped falling. The sky was dry and water couldn't evaporate. It was getting hot. The earth wasn't able to create fresh water because there was no rain or evaporation. No clouds. Only direct sunlight. Plants and animals couldn't survive. And soon, neither would we.

The world's best scientists came together to solve this problem with two solutions. One, colonies in space and two, bio domes to create smaller livable areas for humans, plants and animals to survive. Much of the population would start to deteriorate by the time both options came to pass, but eventually they did. A group of lucky citizens from the world's top nations were sent to live in the colonies in the skies of Venus, as well as domes or bubbles on the Moon and Mars. While those that survived and remained on earth now live in clusters of bio domes that are connected by enclosed passageways that all lead to one larger dome, Central City. The nations were divided into five ruling factions: U.S., China, European Union, Russia and South Africa and call themselves the World's Union. Each faction has at least one colony in space that they control. The problem that is happening now, however, is that the people want separation from Earth and to rule on their own.
