Chapter One:
It is the year 2536 A.D mankind has once again reached out to the stars as the old world of humanity is no more, humankind reach out to nearby worlds to survive, one being the planet of Jupiter however it is not the same Jupiter anymore much change has happened to the planet. The changes that has happened because of the Terra forming project that mankind carried out long before setting out which was successful as now Venus is now a suitable planet to live in.
Running through a small corridor to dark to see with another shadow right behind me I came upon an opened door with a small fire being lit in the fire place in the room seeing the sited shadowy figure siting on a chair near it.
Seeing that shadow I just couldn’t hold back my smile as I rushed forward.
”Mommy! Mommy tell me about that story again.”
“Yeah~, Mommy tell us that story again!”
The cries of two children as they rushed towards the shadowy figure who turned out to be their mother as she turned her head around smiling as she took them up into her arms as she placed each child on her laps. She was a gorgeous lady with long black hair like the dark sky without the hint of aging on her face as if she never aged as she smiled at her two children with her warm eyes.
With the dim light coming from the windows from the array of moonlight that was coming through it let a dim but bright color from the surface of her hair it was like she was a goddess of the night.
“Okay~, Mommy will tell you, long age before human first came to this planet we all use to live on a different planet before the planet where all humans came from.”
“That was the planet called Earth right mommy?”
I replied to mother as she placed me on the right side of her lap.
“Yes~, that’s right Earth was where we originally came from…..our ancestry home.”
Mother answered my question as she stroked my hair that reach to the shoulders.
“Will there ever be a chance for us to go back?”
The second child asked as mother turned to face the child with the same black-darkness hair as hers.
That was the shadow that was following me she was my little sister she looks a lot like mother why is my hair different though.
“Yes there will be a day when we will go back to that world this world may be our home but it would be nice to visit the world where we humans come from right?”
“Do you want to go there?”
“Yes!”
Both child yelled out in unison.
The mother looked at her children warmly as she pulled them in for a hug as the scene faded in the night.
So warm being right here with mommy is the best her scent is so nice…….huh?
“Mommy what’s that smell it’s really bad.”
So afterwards I tasted something very foal in my mouth and it wouldn’t go away.
Smelling something off coming off of her body I look up at mother only to find her looking straight back at me but the color in her eyes was blank it was scary.
“Mommy?”
Suddenly she began rapidly shaking me with the arm that she was holding me with as the lips of her mouth were moving but I couldn’t hear anything that she was saying despite her being right at my face.
She was trying to tell me something but I can’t hear her voice it was hard for me to focus my eyes on her face as she keep shaking me at a fast pace where my head was bobbing back and forth.
Sudden the scenery started to blur out everything was disappearing I can finally hear what mother was saying but it was broken and for some reason I hear a young boy’s voice as mother’s face was soon overshadowed and replaced very slowing by a blurry imagine of some guy’s face but I know this face he is………

“Wake……Wake u……. S…….Seven Wake up…….Seven Wake up! Wake up!
The guys face soon became crystal clear I can see him clearly now it was his voice that I was hearing and while I was raising me head up slowly I see his hand on my right shoulder the shaking was due to him as well.
However as soon as my conscious became clear I quickly took a massive deep breath since I felt short of breath and then I started coughing uncontrollable.
“Seven you okay?!”
“Yeah I think s-“
BOOM!
However before I could even finish my sentence something near us exploded and cause a shockwave that sweep over us and sent us flying from our original spot tossing and turning rapidly along the ground tumble away which felt like forever before it came to a stop when I smashed into smoothing.
It hurts everywhere on my body nonstop pain I couldn’t help but curl up into a ball trying to bear the pain while covering my ears cause of the loud ringing sound that was going off in my ear.
I ripped my eyes open that were seal shut but immediately closed them shut once again as something got in my eye causing me to rub at my eyes as well as wiping away at some wet sticky liquid that seems to be flowing down my face that probably what got in my eye.
After some time I reopened my eyes again and saw red my hands were repaint over red with fresh blood that cover majority of the surface of my skinit would appear that it was my blood as it was still flowing down my face like a waterfall I close my right eye and let the blood just flow down my face.
My body was starting to cramp from curl up into a ball for quite some time as I uncurled myself while endure the shocking pain coursing throughout my body as I laid myself flat on the ground.
Turning my head around while endure the shocking pain in my neck I see a massive boulder next to me I guess this mustbe what I hit when I was rolling around on the ground.
I turned my head back and looked up to the sky but it was blurry I still couldn’t see properly yet lifting myself up with my arms enduring yet another shock wave of pain that overcame me I looked down at my own body my clothes were in taters there was barely any of it left only just bits and pieces of cloths here and there.
There was tons of starches and deep wounds wheremy blood were just pouring out, just gushing out my whole body dying my body and it was stinging like crazy properly cause there some dirt in the wounds.
Reaching out my hand towards the boulder planting my hand on the rough cold surface of the boulder trying to hold myself up but I can’t seem to move my legs they feel very numb and I fell back onto the rock, while gripping my head tightly because of the pain and the agonizing ringing that was still going on in my ear.
Despite the pain I turned my head looking around to find him but with all the cloud and combined with the blurriness in my eyes I can’t see anything.
Till something pulled at my arm and a face appeared in front of me.
“Y……co…….on……g….u…..you…al…….”
It was a face I known and he was telling me something but it was so broken up I couldn’t figure out what he was trying to tell me while he had both of his palms on my face lightly shaking my head.
Then suddenly he plant my face against his chest afterwards I felt a shock wave over us oh another round donated near our position again at least not as close as before.
“Seven you alright!?”
After a few seconds after the shockwave passed over us the arms that were holding me tightly loosened up allowing me to look up at the guy who was looking at me with concern eyes full of worry as he saw the state of my body.
“I’m alright I’m a little banged up but I’m still alive thanks Eighteen.”
Eighteen nodded his head to my response as he quickly got up on his feet while holding me up as he looked around for a few seconds before he started to jog forward.
“Come on get up we’ve got to keep moving!”
Looking back towards me as he dragged my body along.
“Wait where are the others are they okay?!”
“I don’t knows just keep running don’t stop I’m sure they should be fine just go go~!”
We ran as more explosions happen all around us causing clouds of dust to form covering the area around us in dense fogs of dust I started to feel my legs again as I pulled my hand out of Eighteen’s grasp while signaling that I was okay when he turned around in response.
But he still grabbed my hand as he ran forward through the dust cloud well~, I couldn’t see where I was going so I didn’t mind.
The explosions kept on coming nonstop like rain drops they just keep pouring down all around us nonstop so neither did we, we ran for god knowns how long but we didn’t stop no matter how much our feet’s were hurting or how our lungs were burning like they are on fire causing us to gasp for breath as a slight urging feeling slowly creep up in our stomachs.
“S-Seven……ha…. ha…. ju-just…...hold…..on a…ha…li-litt…a little…..longer…..just a lit……”
Eighteen’s broken voice called out to me as he was gasping for air while he continued to run while pulling me along.
I tried reaching out to him but no sound came from my throat it was all dried up, my vision was becoming blurry and my strength left my feet as I tumbled to the ground landing roughly on the ground on my knees and hunched my back forward barely holding myself up with mine only free arm I couldn’t find it in me to get back up.
Boom! Another dust cloud formed right next to us and I felt myself flying through the air before I knew it something hard hit my head the pain was so bad but I didn’t even have the energy in me to even scream anymore I could feel my strength leave my body as I could only just lay on my back till something pulled me back up.
“Come on……...get…...ha…. ha…...get…. up…...get up……...Seven.”
Eighteen was there trying to pull me back up to my feet tightly gripping onto my arms but I just couldn’t find the strength to get back up while I triedto shack him off while shaking my head.
“Go…..ha….ha….ha…..go on…….leave me…..”
“Don’t……..ha……..talk like that……we’re….ha….getting out…..of…ha….here…….alive….ha……together!”
I tried to pull myself away from him but Eighteen held onto me pulling me up resulting in a little tussle of tug of war between us as he held on to me while his other palm was on my cheek holding my head up however sudden it seemed as though he looked up then I felt a shove and I fell backwards on my back.
Boom! Another explosion as another dust cloud blocked my sights yet again this time something went into my eye so I had to slam my eyes shut and was rubbing against my eyelids rolling to my side. I forced my eyelids open but couldn’t seen anything expect a bunch a blurry imagineswhen what appears to be several shadowy clouds overcame me emerging from the dust cloud.
“There you are! Hey he’s here I found seven! Man~, we’vebeen looking everywhere for you!”
Looking over my shoulderI see a couple of blurry but somewhat familiar faces that I was relieved to see.
“Come on through those tree line is the finish line we’re almost there just keep going!”
One of them lead meby the shoulder as far as I could make out Eighteen wasn’t anywhere wasn’t he just right in front of me where did he go he didn’t to want to leave me behind no matter how much I begged him to so where isI didn’t get my answer though as a pair of arms swooped me up into the air.
“I’ve got him come on let’s go, let’s go~!”
“Wai~ eigh~….teen…” I tried to speck but
Ka-boom! Several more explosion happened around us.
“Keep running we’re almost there!”
“Seven ~……come on…stay…wi…...m…...Seven …...SEVEN!”
That was the last thing I could hear as my view turned black as the last ounce of strength in me faded away and darkness covered my sights.
