The Other Side of the Hill

by Neathra

Outside of the Sameness, the world has been coming closer to perfecting a true utopia. When Jonas and Gabriel are found by the people of elsewhere they are taken to a hospital in Berlin, and eventually adopted by their doctor and her family. However the Community is looking for Jonas to punish him, while Lily is looking for a strange warm feeling that she wishes to feel again.

1. Timeline

Hi again! It's Neathra! I really need to work on Through Death to you, but I had this on hand. (Seriously it's complete, I just need to separate the chapters, add some authors notes and upload them. ) And I wanted to upload a real story. So tell me what you think. This first chapter is just to explain what has been happening outside of sameness.
