Waking up in a hospital is not a fun way to spend your birthday. Neither is discovering you have permanent memory loss. To top it all off, three separate groups of people visited your hospital room, and told you who you were. "Yay, I know who I am now!" right? The problem? None of the stories are similar at all. So, who would you choose to be? And what if the choice isn't yours to make? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SCHOOLGIRL STEFFA is: A typical high school sophomore with a very regular life in the suburbs. Head cheerleader, dating the star quarterback, and not a blonde, yet failing math. Christened Stephanie Stella Smith. SMARTYPANTS SQUID is: America's pride and heart...and pretty much the whole government. A person whose social status is higher than the President's. A prodigy. A cocky smartass who uses sarcasm a lot. Like, A LOT a lot. Named Sydney EXP. due to an experimental laboratory birth. SPYGIRL SAM is: Superspy for the French. A sexy badass born to spies, named Samantha Eagle. And...? A NoBody. Nothing else is known of her. Nothing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Akropolis

"Any thought you ever had; memories, desires, your fears and your dreams, are all recorded and stored safely in the Quantum Cloud for your eventual revival. Death is now merely a transitional period to the next stage of your existence. As a QUBIT (quantum processing biosynthetic), you will experience a life free of disease and suffering. Time is no longer your enemy. Regret is a thing of the past. Each new day brings the promise of endless possibilities, spent in the pursuit of your own happiness, guiltless with the knowledge that there are no longer earthly constraints to inhibit you. This is the life you have always wanted. Welcome to your new beginning..." Akropolis is a city at the end of times, a sanctuary where the brightest and best have been housed since the last Great War. A genome defect has afflicted the majority of the population and scientists are desperate to find a cure. In the meantime, man has found his own salvation in the form of the QUBIT (quantum processing bio-synthetic), an android that is capable of prolonging life almost indefinitely, and yet what makes them human in the first place has been lost in the transition. The ruling council believes that salvation is nigh, but whether that hope arrives in time is questionable. The city's future depends upon the actions of a few individuals, all of whom are struggling with their own mortality. Quentin is the boy who dreams of death. Mia is the tortured soul. Trey is the soldier that defines duty. Misao is the future of the ruling council. Claire is the girl with a secret that will rock the foundations of their entire civilization. Unbeknownst to them, the entire fate of Akropolis lies in their hands. Either humanity will find a way to survive or it will sink slowly into the sea of extinction.
