Story
The Year is 2054 the human race has achieved allot. They have found a cure for the common cold, cured cancer and many more remarkable things like particle relocation. There was no wars, no violence, well except obvious things like theft or bullying but everything was getting better. Until our scientists wanted to try and make plant growth on earth speed up. they wanted to control the ecosystem so we could make it rain and when we wanted it to be sunny we could change it. and that’s what they did and they build a giant contraption called “Generation”. Worst mistake the human race did. The 29th of June 2065 the machine “Generation” was powered up. everything was running smoothly, and millions of people from all over the planet was watching live, from there TV’s to the internet and even in person at the fences of the “Generation”, suddenly a loud noise came from the machine, a horrifying scream of pipes and metal scratching. suddenly the machine exploded. a amazingly bright light lit everywhere up. people watching from there TVs, on the internet or even up close, the bright light was to much for them. there eyes was burnt from there eye sockets. It dose not matter where as long as they saw that bright light, they where dead. … That was 12 years ago. the world has risen in temperature from the light that killed near enough everyone years ago, at least the “Generation”, At least that machine did what it was meant to do, but it only heated the world up. and nobody can turn it off. the world has become a scorching desert at day, and a freezing desert at night. I must now find water, I must build, I must survive.
