(Ambiguous 1st person short story: meaning it uses we and us) We were cursed with enhancements in a world of technology and mundanes who wanted to know everything. We were the perfect experiment. This was the world we lived in. Was it not? Humanity was nothing in comparison to the greed of knowledge and prestige. Who wouldn't want to be the one to reduce the enhancement's threats, as they called us, or to find cures. How did we end up in the laboratory? The people who birthed us were now filthy rich. It's one way of saying it. How was it in the laboratory? Fine, can't complain. There was only the constant pain from the blood that oozed out. Sometimes it was taken in tubes, you could see them take it away. Other times it decorated the walls. Also they sedated us, another experiment. The one to make us powerless. They failed each time but a side effect was that we were constantly drowsy. This time they messed up. Oh, what fun this was going to be.

It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice.
