What would you do if the whole world around you was falling apart, right before your eyes? 

"I remember everything about that day. The day President Hess took everything away from me. He took over all the TV's in the world, or so I thought. How weird we all thought that our TV's could be controlled so easily. For them to make us see what they wanted us to. That's when he stepped up to his podium and made his announcement stating everyone would be going through a screening process immediately for genetic diseases and disorders. My family and I joked around until there was a knock at the door. Two armed guards walked into the house, pushing my father back toward us. We were forced to walk outside with everyone else in the neighborhood. Some people already in their pajamas, even some people without shoes. The guardians, as President Hess calls them, kept everyone in line and in order as we all walked in a straight line in the direction of the nearest hospital. Walking into the unknown."
