ARC
“Today none of us remembers what it was like to live on our mother planet. The last person to have walked the Earth died one thousand nine hundred and fifteen years ago, eighty five years after our Ancestral Rescue Capsule (ARC) was launched in 2056”, said the teacher. “Now! Who can tell me that person’s name?”The students’ eyes commenced their evasive maneuvers.

It wasn’t blinking like the power had gone out so I assumed it was just broken. As I pulled the covers off I noticed that they felt heavier. I thought this was a little odd until I tried to pull my legs out. It felt like I had done a 1000 squats. What the hell is going on? I don’t need this shit right now I’m already late for work. I found a shirt and a pair of pants and quickly made my way downstairs to grab my car keys and whatever food was closest to the do...
