About five years ago for me and about five thousand in the future for you, the world died, yes you heard me right, Earth died, but its not like it came without warning I mean we had known the exact date for implosion for about fifty years, and had been preparing for it. Oh and that is my bit of the story, I was in love.

It was the day of my promotion, and I was talking to my mum over intrafone, intrafone was a system built inside you when you hit adolescence. Basically it teleports sound waves from a person to you and then transforms them into nerve impulses which are received into your brain then transformed back into sound waves and sent to the air just outside your ears where you hear them and then respond by talking into a minute device imbedded into your wrist. Technology is so long winded.  

“Guess what mum!”

“Its brilliant, don’t you think!”

“I mean head of the biggest nuclear science lab in the world!”

I had been promoted to head of Nuclear Science International, and I was thrilled. This meant that I was one of ten people in the world who were in control of all science decisions and that is pretty damn important, on science standards.

        Well anyway nothing is ever all good, hence the following unfortunate events.

Firstly my girlfriend Skylar didn’t pass her CL Degree in nuclear science and this made me feel particularly bad because I was her home tutor. A CL Degree was the new system, to stop there being worthless citizens. It means Compulsory Life Degree; you need it to survive basically. There was quite an age difference between me and Sky you see. At this point Sky decided that she would settle down with me and do house wife things, until she was ready to re-sit her CL. Now I had no problem with this because with my new salary I could afford to house both of us and more (that was not a hint).

        Now the second unfortunate event was slightly worse, because this one involved my mother dying. I left home at 16 because she didn’t believe anything I said and always blamed things on me and didn’t talk to my mother for years, until my twenty-fifth birthday when she rang up to tell me that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer, at which point with me being the all heart kind of guy I paid for her treatment and well we were getting on really well until she was given the all clear, and she started being a maniac again, but I had grown up a bit since 16 and decided that she wasn’t going to change and she was my mum, so I had no choice but to love her all the same, hence I told her about my promotion and still spoke to her, not that her response was worth hearing or repeatable! So in the end she didn’t die of breast cancer because nowadays it is much easier to cure she actually died of old age at sixty-two years old, shock, horror don’t you think? I mean people in your time are living almost 30 years longer than that! Life spans have deteriorated over the past three hundred years or so, due to a new terminal aging disease that apparently the whole world caught, but most of us don’t believe this and think that it was IParty who let out the disease so that the Earth didn’t get over populated.

        IParty are evil if you ask me, yet still like every other sucker I go onto the website-vote and slowly spiral down into the depths of politics and I do just hate being there! You see IParty work from a website, they never do anything face to face, and in fact I’m not really sure they are real people. They don’t exactly make any decisions they just put a pole on the internet and the majority of the world go on there and vote and then the highest opinion wins, simple.

        Anyway that is completely going off the point because ...
