This is a furturistic horror/thriller which I have posted in a series because it is far easier to read and more people can read the chapters in their own time then all at once.All Parts/chapters to this series are posted below in links.This story is about what happens when we lose sight of everything we know including our sense of values.Are we all doomed to hell or is there something more.
I know in my heart there will come to be a time where selflessness will rule once again but right now I think somehow, someway we all just lost sight of it.
How and why it all began is the easy part, evil men came into power. Both cultures and religions were tainted and defiled by these men. They withheld evidence and in all truth of the matter when they did not do that, they destroyed it. Like our faith everything that mattered or counted went down into ruins.
It did not take these beasts of men a short time to accomplish such wickedness, oh no, it took them centuries of planning and preparing to put their diabolical schemes into action and now, here we are in the 22st century and it seems they have accomplished what they set out to do. To create a world of ignorance and blindness. They, with all certainty raped humanity of all that it believed in.
What makes the human spirit is the righteousness we have in our hearts, if that righteousness is taken away for any reason, it then only stands to reason that we will eventually come to suffer the repercussions.
Going back in time, before all the cloning, cryogenics and robotics, back to people who had values, who were not too lazy to do their own work, I remember as a child I loved to learn. In fact reading was my favorite pastime. I would delve into stories of courageous men and women who became hero’s by doing good in the world, intellectually inspiring stories that actually made you want to help others . Now, no one can be bothered to pick up a book we have come to a standpoint where robots and clones do our work for us and to be honest, most of the time even think for us.
Apparently our own brains must have stopped working somewhere along the line and became too weak and feeble to actually work problems out on their own, otherwise; we would never have lead the world down the one way street we now exist in,one filled with snares and pitfalls,complete entrapment. I know that I am a critical person, but trust in me when I say, it is at a crucial time.
I always wanted to help others in need and I can assure you I am not completely alone when it concerns such matters of the heart but it is rare these days to have such feelings. I want to help those afflicted souls that need but just one person to guide them in the right direction, not some soulless robot or clone leading them to and fro like puppets in a rat race.
Getting on with the story I was meant to tell, for the record, I would like to state that sometimes seeing is believing because it is very, very relevant in this matter, it would not have taken anything less. I also would like to mention that on all accounts by the time it came it to be, it was almost to late, we were on the brink of extinction.
When all seems hopeless there exists a small light glowing dimly at first, so dim you can barely see it but eventually, sooner or later your eyes do adjust and everything becomes clear. Sometimes the impossible is possible and that explains the unexplainable. Miracles do happen, most of us just fail to see them, well I should say that is until Elizabeth and Isabelle came into our lives, awakening us, giving us our sense of pride and wonder back. The Keepers they would come to be known as. A very unique set of twins gifted beyond belief.
