After the world turned on the United States, WWIII began. The Superior Alliance released biochemical-warfare and ordered nuclear bombs, the United States was devastated. Radiation lingered, proving fatal to those who were exposed and weather became dangerous, wildly unpredictable. Now, only one city remains. A safe haven built in New Jersey, a city surrounded by new border technology that promised to protect against the elements. The "New Society'' believes that structure and order is the cure to humanity. That a shot when you turn 13 to eliminate mental illness and pain would be the key to a perfect civilization. 300 years later, Thea Carson was born into the New Society. Her parents died when she was 6, the government said they were exposed to the radiation. She got The Antidote when she was 13 but nothing changed, it didn't work. She's a flaw in the system, a crack in society, she's lost. Until, she meets a boy that claims he's from the Barren that changes everything. Did her parents really die from radiation? Is there even radiation outside the border at all or is there something else that scares them even more?

L.O.V.E.

100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)
