The orange, dusty air covered the world in its devastating blanket. The remainants of fallen buildings were almost invisable in the thick sheet. Burried in the debris was a giant grey hand. A hand that held a giant grey torch. The Statue of Liberty, torn down by the strong gales.
Three people, covered in brownish orange clothes sat on the fallen statue. They were dirty, scabbed, and dressed poorly. They each held a rusted hand gun, and a large chunk of wall as a sheild. Two of these people were adults, male and a female. The other one was a child, nearly twelve years of age.
The lady fell to her bruised knees, and croaked, "Joseph... take our son to Horizon 1... I won't make it."
"Kaitlyn! No! I will not leave you here! C'mon, it ain't that far!" Joseph responded urgently.
"M-mother! Get up!" Their son, Kyle, cried!
Kaitlyn didn't respond. Her body went cold quickly. She was dead.
Joseph and Kyle stood there at the spot, mourning their beloved's death until six yellow bright lights in the distance appeared. A low choppy buzz could be heard approaching them. The object finally appeared out of the dust, It was a large flying disk.
"Run Kyle!" Joseph said as he shoved his son on the shoulder.
A small grey hemisphere on the bottom of the disk started rotating, shooting out hundreds of capsule shaped missiles.
Shoom! Shoom! Two missiles reached ahead of the two.
"Turn right!" "Turn Left" "Turn around" Joseph commanded his son, trying to keep them both safe from the numerous explosions.
Kyle shot his rusty hand gun at the disk. F-r-r-rooooooom! The missile bounced right off and into the air.
The Lower Hemisphere went up into the disk, and came down again with a LARGE missile
Kyle tripped, and the Missile's barrel turned into a glowing white. Joseph could only stand a distance away.
Stomp stomp stomp stomp stomp! Joseph could hear people marching right passed him. He looked and saw people wearing black, armored leather, and hats that told him that these people were with the government. They each held large guns that they carried on their shoulders.
"One Two Three FIRE!" Someone with authority yelled.
Boom! Boom! Boom! TSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH! Missiles dug their through the disk's metal skin.
The disk made a sizzling noise, and fell violently to the ground. Kyle made his way to Joseph, and the people with the large guns said, "Are you looking for a Horizon 1?"1
