INTRO
Humans have been put to the edge. Staving, fighting, dirty. The New Global Government has been keeping its precious money for “the war effort”. We all know there's more then enough money for the war and to feed the world.
Countries starting falling apart since first contact. People started fighting against their governments, until everyone massed together. The whole world rebelled and created The New Global Government. I never understood why it was “so much better”. They're the same as our old corrupt governments, but now they control everything. Well, what's left anyway.
Its rumoured it started in a science lab. They found a way to expand worm holes for a few milliseconds, just enough time to teleport someone... or something. The problem was back then, they didn't know how to set a destination for the exit of the worm hole, and being a worm hole, it was two-way, so things can enter on the other side. The first time they opened a worm hole, it just so happened to open on an alien planet. Even though it was only open for the few milliseconds they could have it open, it opened on a creature teleporting it back to earth. The military calls this creature a “Granger”.
It's kind of bug-like, and the size of a dog. I didn't believe it at first when I saw it on T.V.. The news headline with a picture reading “Contact has been made with Aliens”. Small dark-grey six legged creature. The two front legs were slightly wider, and it walked half dragging its self on the ground. It had a small head with a large rear potion of the body. The multiple eyes, small black, beady eyes. I felt like screaming the first time they showed it. Little did we know, it would almost end our already damaged human race.
They shortly found out it spawn other stationary aliens. Almost like desk sized living buildings. The biggest one some sort of Overmind, that controls other alien “buildings” and partly seed to control the alien its self. About a week since the “Overmind” was built, the alien, the Granger, built...or spawned.... an egg. Only this egg could keep birthing aliens, more and more, but only 2 kinds. A small spider like one the military now calls a “Dretch” and Grangers. Who knew Dretches had a deadly bite, and all the aliens could evolve into meaner, more blood thirsty, brutal aliens... after they ate enough flesh.
Chapter One
“Kit! Stop watching that T.V, I need you to go down town” My mom is always nagging at me about the T.V. I watch it when ever I can. When it's on at least. The New Global Government, wants to limit electricity use. Another one of its “energy for the war” strategies. The Military's teleporters take a lot of energy to use. So, each Division gets to share whats left.
I reach and turn the nob off. We have enough technology to have hover cars, but the global rebellions and the war against the aliens has set us back to using antiques for everyday life.
I head down the dark unlit wood stairs to the kitchen. My mom has the fridge out in the open looking hopelessly at the back. “I see the fridge is broken again” I say to her.
She looks up “Yeah, what else is new” Her voice is dry and raspy. She's getting sick again. She walks over to the counter and picks up a bag. “ I need you to get some bread for dinner tonight, and hurry back! I need the left over money for the repair man to fix the fridge”
“You sound like you're getting sick”
“Does it? I better have some tea” She replies.
I walk over to her, kiss her on the cheek, and walk out. Money and bag in hand.
Chapter 2
I've always hated walking down the street, any street, they're all the same. Dirty, dark, people always fighting for the little food there really is. Unfortunately, this is how it is everywhere. Not just our Division. The world has been pushed to the breaking point ever since the aliens were first discovered. We are now only left on the only land that's still here, its about half size of old North America, and there aren't to many people left to occupy it.
END
Sorry I haven't even come close to finishing it. I might, donno yet.
