My story from a private clan thread. The year is 27XX. Humanity has been all but destroyed over these past centuries. My ancestors were there at the eleventh hour when our home, earth, was to be taken by The Fallen. We are told this story as children, but my story has a heavy weight tied to these words. The battle for the last city, we called [REDACTED] was a one sided blood bath. We had little in the way of technology to give us even a Glimmer of hope. As my ancestors crouched behind long unused motor vehicles, they turned their gaze to the sky. As if a feeling of knowing had rushed over them, they sprang forth, with new found hope. You see, The Fallen did something different at the same time our people looked to the sky. They showed fear. Without Wavering for even a second, My ancestors brought down Fallen, first one fell. The hope in everyone's eyes was thick in the air, and as if everyone had been possessed by some force, they began to push the invaders back. The power that my ancestors used has not been detailed, but we do know that it was passed down from generation to generation. Jump to me, living in the last city. We call ourselves "Guardians". Laughable, really. Most of us live in The Tower. Our kind tend to be revered, as well as despised by the un-chosen. The Tower is a safe haven for myself, and the likes. Having lived here most of my life, I have been told that my destiny is to save our planet, and protect our race from extinction. They tell me these things, but look at me as a disappointment. You see, I have never left the confines of The Tower, and wish never to. I spend my days watching HV(Holovision), Stalking the cute shop girls, and my one true passion, dancing. I love to dance, and dance is what I do. The other Guardians seem to be very pleased with my dancing. What is very strange is how often Guardians will dance with me. This is where my troubles start. The other Guardians are very good dancers, and it leads to my depression. When I am depressed, I take drugs. When I say drugs, I don't mean doctor prescribed. The amount of Glimmer needed to procure such drugs is astronomical. Just for a 17th of a gram is 7,000 G. So, I dance, and dance. Dance until I have enough for that next fix. Dance until I can get that 17th.
