Is this a good beginning for a story?
America. A place that has been for so many,
always called home. Now terror and havoc thrive throughout the
once noble land and it’s honorary history is too soon
forgotten when war knocks on their doors. People dance at the
mention of violence but invite the idea of safety into their
homes. Quite often you see children being denied the expected
rations of their daily food, bread and water. Theft among family
and friends is common, but punished by the authorities in ways
beyond recognition. Most cower in fear when the authorities are
involved. The past is something many wish to forget and is
brought up only in times of desperation. No one can pin point the
exact moment when hell on Earth became everyone’s reality,
but they’ve tried. The day the world collapsed was filled
with fire, screams, and people whose only goal was survival.
Buildings exploded, burned, and were ransacked in a matter of
hours while civilization was thrown into a major trauma.
Everywhere throughout the country was chaos and the thought of
order never occurred to anyone. Quickly, the contagious behavior
spread to the rest of the Americas and contact with the remaining
countries disappeared. Some could describe it as dreadful. Most
descriptions were treacherous. In the middle of the mess,
technology depleted. Resources such as books and newspapers went
up in smoke. With no record of the past, yesterday literally
ceased to exist. The present was too unspeakable to discuss, but
the idea of a tomorrow left people weak to their knees. The
Forgotten Times were, well just that, forgotten. While many hoped
that they could forgot the horrific ness of the Renewal Time.
Humans now refer to the missing pieces of time in three
categories; The Renewal Time being the one lived in today.
Society since then has been able to overcome what once was, but
the memories still haunt them. The Forgotten Time, and the
Tolerate Time, where humans must endure what is to
come.
Comment? I would love you
forever!
