Grounded in the Underground

Underground, scurrying of rats became higher, dripping of leaky pipes becomes louder and screams of pain become heart wrenching. The unknown is a harder reality to become accustom to when prediction and knowing are what make society prosperous. Choosing to fight and stay alive becomes harder and more unlikely as time passes in a blur.

At 13 boys are taken by force from loving families who begin to ache at the loss. Their shake and cries make the process more enjoyable. Their old lives are only memories as they stumble around rules, structure and death.

At anytime girls are exploited. Dozens are taken and played for choosing. Only 10 ever survived the ordeal. Those girls are traumatized, violated and confused. Why they forever stick to one boy always older? New water is tested for those few who survive.
