Post-Dystopia

When the worst regime had fallen, the wistful desires of a raving mad tyrant reduced to glistening dust, the world had fallen into a deafening silence.

Quiet murmurs of the lost revolutionaries just couldn't agree upon the actions to be taken, what the world would become if not dystopian, iron clad in an autocrat's regime.

Now the dust has fallen, settled down into a strange monotony, and seventeen year old Tomato "Tommy" Heinz (and yes, that is his name) is living alone in his post-dystopia.

Tommy is a clever boy, "gifted" some might say, in fact everybody says. Repeatedly. As long as he trudges through his existence. Awaiting the day of his adulthood when he can finally take his trial to become an official in this world's new government.

Ambition is biting at him. Power is calling to him. Happiness is ebbing at the edges of morality.

The world teeters frightfully on the edge of a long forgotten history, temptingly close to repeating, and as as Tommy is sensing his appraisal date approaching something dead begins stirring in post-dystopia.
