Hey, this is my first attempt at a story, so please review and tell me what you think.
Prologue
Jeb Batchelder glares at his new boss, Daniel Artino. "You can't do that." He says angrily. "It will kill everyone! There won't be anyone left!"
Daniel laughs harshly. "Jeb, you've known this was going to happen from the moment the flock was created. It's happening whether you like it or not."
Jeb looks up at him from his seat in Daniel's office. "They won't let it happen, Daniel, you know they won't. They've stopped Itex before, and they'll stop it again, no matter what you do. They'll fix it, and you know it."
Daniel frowns and walks over, closer to the man who he had once thought of to be a faithful colleague. "Jeb," he says smoothly, "things are changing. The flock will be betrayed. They will not be able to fix what we are going to do."
"Then they'll stop you before you have a chance to do it. If they can't do it alone, then the Tunnel Guards will help them." Jeb informs the new leader of Itex with anger and irritation in his voice.
He stands up and looks out the window of the office and watched the drones being programmed in the programming lab. He couldn't help but hope the flock could fix this. If they couldn't, everything will go down. There was no one else left in the world who could fix it other than them. He just hoped they could find the Tunnel in time.
But Daniel only gives a dark smile. "It's already too late, Jeb. They may have been able to stop Itex alone, but they can't stop Itex and TDI combined."
Well, tell me what you think? Since this is so short I'm going to try and get another chapter in. Please review. Kristen
