No
one ever saw them.
We
didn’t know where they came from or why they came here. We only knew that in one blast, the planet
was left in ruins. For weeks, the bodies
of men rotted in the streets.
Men. Not women.
Not children.
The
women and children were gone.
With
the cities destroyed and communication impossible, we could only guess what
happened. Men gathered in loose tribes,
trying to get answers, but there were none to be found.
As
the weeks turned into months, survivors emerged from secluded, rural areas,
underground shelters, and subway systems in the larger cities. Only a handful of women were among them. Men outnumbered them a thousand to one.
During
the first year, the weather warmed.
Rainfall nearly stopped. Lights
began to appear in the sky, moving slowly over our heads, but they never came down. We had no face for our enemy, so we turned
against each other.
Fights
broke out as survivors struggled for limited resources. Clean water and food were at the top of the
list and would only be traded for fuel, guns, or ammunition.
The
few, unfortunate females still to be found became the most prized commodity.
COMMODITY IS COMING SOON!!
