Introduction
-Revelation 17:8 - 17:10
The rapture was the beginning.
Our brothers and sisters, parents, loved ones, children - they left. One morning, we woke up, and they were gone. Empty beds, empty cars. The earth was still as those who remained tried to put the pieces together. Hearts were broken.
Then, He came. The Beast. The Being. He emerged from the sand and soil of the middle-east and ensnared those heartbroken souls with promises of a bright future. Now, He is faded. The Tribulation is over, He said. The wars rage and salt the earth behind them in His name, and disease and famine rock the world. Some people say He will rise again to corrode the earth, and they cry out for God.
Our greatest cities are ruined. They burst through the seams of the earth like infection from a wound, seeping out and slaughtering, torturing, and destroying everything. They engulfed our societies. They hunt us like prey.
We are waiting. Left behind because of our selfishness, greed, and impurity.
Across the globe, people awoke to have been abandoned by those they cared for. You are one of them, and whether you admit to your sins or not, you nowhave to fight to survive, or lay down and resign to death.

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 1 authors
Mikhail stared up at the sun, a calloused, square hand shielding his face from it's scalding glare. His cheeks were pinked under his beard, his nose peeling a little. Light eyes contrasted with the steep shadows of his rapidly aging face. The sun beat upon him like a lash, and he nearly reeled back from the heat. It seeped through his dark clothing, sticking his boots to his socks and his feet, slicking his unruly dark hair down to his skull and forehead. He almost resented his choice in clothing, if not for the lack of burns across his body. He could handle the irritation on his face and hands. The road spilled out before him, sprawling like the web of a spider stretched a little too thin. He had come to the top of a hill, and stared down the country road, through the fir trees and past the bones of cattle that had grazed in a field a few hundred feet from the hilltop. The fir trees were withering, crisped by the sun. They engulfed a few fields of yellow grass that bubbled off of the slithering asphalt highway. The Southbound was potholed and cracked, if not from the sun, then by trucks. In the distance, smoke billowed from the national forest. He could smell the cinder even five miles away.
The road is unforgiving, he thought, looking at the wear on his boots. Granted, he had walked more than a thousand miles in two weeks. He licked his cracking lips and tore his gaze from the sky. From the hill he could see the valley - the small settlement town, the blaze in the west, fields, the southbound to Los Angeles. He resumed walking, ignoring the twinge of pain from his blisters and bruises. The city of angels. How ironic, he sighed, walking beneath an overpass sign. It was still a month's journey to the gleaming city, the central hub, but he hardly let that bite at his mind.
