@20AuthorsUnited The idea is: The Government has fallen,
Humanity has crumbled.
Civilisation is abolished under the rule of a new race.
Earth is dying. When the world lies in ruins, still on its knees from the aftermath of the third world war, there is nothing you can do but survive. When a new threat to the remains of humanity becomes apparent, the weak and dying world must make a choice.
Kill or be killed. Live or die.
As for the new race, we think the Ancients, which are further improved upon by the scientists, are the new race.
The government, civilization, is all gone. No one is ruling, but the survivors banded together are just barely surviving, trying to create order.
The new threat is that the scientist is creating the Ultimates, a race that will nearly plunge the population to nothing.
Their choice is to fight them, everyone :D
We've got the main character, a girl. She's an experiment. One of the Ancients--the race before the Ultimates. (Cossette)
A dark, mysterious boy who happens to be the girl's older brother. (Jack)
A boy who hides his past and true feelings behind a facade of happiness and a carefree, whimsy personality. (I don't remember...)
And another girl who is kind of annoying. She likes to spew random facts when nervous. (Vivienne)
All names are subject to change, of course.
Ancients are basically humans altered to the form of no return, where there minds derode to the point of few senses, thoughts filled with only murder, and the desire to kill savagely and without mercy. Their appearances are altered to; I was thinking devil horns, scars across their faces, and skin the color of grey. Ancients were created FROM humans, and hence, since Cosette was the first test to become an Ancient, Cosette is actually in the in between stage; half human, half Ancient.
