(Rank #149 in Sci-Fi) In the year 2041, the first bombs were dropped. Countless nations engaged in total warfare and the end result was the destruction of everyday life. Riots and looting became common as people began to loose trust in one another. Worldwide famine, nuclear bombs, and food shortages led to disease and plague, which claimed countless lives. Soon, governments were destroyed and most of the world had turned to anarchy. Life as we knew it, had changed completely. The world we once knew has now became a world reborn. It is now the year 2086, and 16 year old Amber McQueen peacefully lives with her family. Her family, that consists of her middle-aged father and 8 year old brother, takes up residence in an old cabin, located high in the Catskill mountains, in New York. Her father tells her that he's going to search for supplies near the abandoned town of West Shokan. But after 3 long days, her father doesn't return. Amber is then visited by a stranger one day and that was when her world changed forever.

In the quiet desert village of Dey, living among the sand dunes and mirages, existed an anomaly - me. I was different, born without the ability to read, write or keep long memories. My scientist father hailed my uniqueness as a miracle, but my life was far from ordinary. To the village, I was just an oddity, a walking puzzle with missing pieces. My only solace was my best friend, always standing by me, his unspoken love for me etched in his affectionate gaze. We lived under a cruel regime with a population no more than a hundred. Every year, one of us would be chosen on the Counting Day, a ceremonious banishing ritual, to become yet another outcast to the floating prison island far off in the ocean - our village's dreaded version of population control. Our past criminals, defiant to government, and more terrifyingly, our loved ones gone missing, were thought to inhabit that island, their fate, a terrifying enigma. This year, as the Counting Day approached unrelentingly, and my loved one's life rested on borrowed time, I made a decision. I volunteered to be casted out. It was my turn to face the unknown with a hidden purpose - to locate my lost father who was sent there years ago.
