There were a few strings, twisting and changing into a familiar picture:
Right under the navy, broadless sky, a blue car was driving along the paths that separated the fields into blocks. A road stretched to the end of the horizon.The music came from the radio of the car, performing Queen's Made in Heaven. A middle-aged man put his right arm against the window, feeling more happier than he could express. A soft and spokeless wind went through the leaves of the wheats, bringing him the voices of the countryside.
At the end of the way stood a house. A woman which is his wife, together with his daughter, were staring the car to come, waving their hands. "Ita! Ita!" they were crying for his name.
Seeing them standing on the balcony, a sense of satisfication rose in his heart, and became a smile on his face. He had been working in the city for over two months, and he was always thinking of return and kissing his daughter.
But that is only a dream.
"Alert: Individuals who are still indoor, please leave for the shelter since the city is being attacked. We will try hard to keep you safe." A machine-like voice broke his dream. He rolled his eyes for a while. How strong the feeling of reunion was! But everything had changed these years.
After the eclipse in 2021, many scientists had claimed that the abilities of healing and growing was totally disappeared from our genes. The Moon shone its energy to the Earth, giving a special imprint to entire world and destroyed the genes of self-healing.
Many creatures that was not belong to the Earth had appeared in various places attacking the individuals and achitectures. They were called Silverians and regarded as a monstrous threat of safety. Also there were Moonalitas, which were humans who once died because of injecting too much power of the Moon. Human goverments had built shelters to get rid of the Silverians and had forced citizens to move when the Silverians began to approach.
He tried to cheer himself up and to pack some requirements. Despite of the disaster out of his window, he had to move at once, still.
The electricity supply was cut down. It was dark in the corridor. An emergency light, shed its light at the end of the corridor alone. And there stood two young man. One connected a micro computer on his hand to the central control of the lights and was trying to hack it down.
"Hey Glan, problem's done?" another said.
"Shut up, Myas."
All the lights were on suddenly. "Well, awesome." Myas whispered.
Humans set up many orgnizations to research on the Silverians. These two guys were from Carkason, an orgnization which studied Silverians and Moonalitas quite well. They got a message that the 3rd Moonalita, Cosima, had descended in this city and had brought great disaster. They were here to check if there were still individuals indoor.
"Hmm, last building, I gonna have a drink after I finish my work." Myas said to himself.
