Dystopia

by Feurinae

In a corrupt society, Nio finds himself dodging dangerous obstacles and situations in his life. What else would you do in the midst of the apocalypse?

"In a plain world ruled by the consent of the government, even living becomes a chore for the governed.

But here, there's a simple rule. The rule made for killers. Ruthless, blood-lustful killers. The rule can easily explain itself.

Murder someone and gain the talent they had. And, in this world, talents are limitless.

I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Nio.

I live in a barren area near the alleys. I haven't stepped a foot outside since our society down here crumbled. I've been terrified- terrified of going outside and leaving this wasteland. Killers are everywhere, not to mention how many cannibalistic groups are on the loose.

Tomorrow I'm thinking about going outside. This ends my entry for day 1."

The recording stopped as soon as Nio tapped the button. He sighed, flopping back into his bed.

He looked around his home, staring at the barred and blocked up windows and doors. It was the only way to keep murderers out, and him in. He was safe. For now.

He closed his eyes, finally finding some rest for once.
