Stories From My Inner Self
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: The Demise of the Planet Earth
Topic: Short Stories

Well people it's me again, but this time I'm not in battle with Warma one of earth's villianous foes. My home, planet earth is no longer in existence and that beautiful little town of Middleland City! Gone. You see, the people of earth did not pay attention to the scientists when they warned us of too much pollution.

About three years after my battle with Warma the ozone layer began to break down and radiation slowly effected the enviroment, most of us earthlings were mutated by it and died. The rest perished in the mighty floods caused by the melting of many glaciers and ice sheets of the world.

But there was some of us that survived by the grace of God, I was one of them. We survived by hiding deep in an underground cave which had been used by the U.S. Army for some unknown reason. There was plenty of freeze dried food packets there and an abundance of water to supply us until NASA put their plan into motion. Finally NASA implimented their plan of evacuating us stranded earthlings.

They loaded us into the space shuttles they had set aside many, many years ago in case something like this happened. We were sent to another planet called Venturn. This planet is a mirror image of Venus, molten rock and volcanoes are present on the southern side which is unlivable to humans. This planet is 30,000 light years from the now destroyed earth, it was created by the Vens, a tribe of 21st century Cyberpunks who left earth before World War IV.

To keep us humans alive, Venturn is surrounded by a bug bubble that contains the following gases O2-Carbon and FE(Iron). The air in the bubble is fabricated so that we humans can survive. There is no sun so light beams are present on the inside of the bubble so we can see. Other cloud-like bubbles suspended from the ceiling holds the heat from the light beams to keep us warm. One good thing about it is that all humans are vegetarians, vegetables are always grown because there is one season here, spring.

We can only survive on the northern side of the planet where the bubble is. The other occupants here are Cyberhumans which means machines control all functions. Upon arrival some of us was converted into cyberhumans for work purposes. The heart has less of a job because computers control blood flow and other heart functions. There's not much to say about this planet, but it's now home and hopefully we can maintain this one. I would hate to see where we would go next. Cry

Wow, Lynda. A nice political thinker here. I would love to read more of this. Will it remain a short story or do you have plans to grow it?

Great imagination and storytelling, your wording is very good thus making this sci-fi short believable.
