When they Stopped Counting

Introduction

"They were just people. Normal people in a normal place. It wasn't their fault it all froze. It wasn't their fault they got caught in the middle of it. But, in the end, they just stopped counting."

Present day. Plans for the future. Memories of the past. The world, striving, moving, like one big creature, and the little kids inside running through the playgrounds, thriving for what's to come.

Future. Plans for the now. Wishes of the past.

Disaster.

All over Earth, every big city to every little village. Rain stopped falling. The sun stopped shining. Life died and then turned gray, as every bit of willful substance had the energy sucked out of it. Dust fell as volcanoes glowed, and the ocean began to still. Some teens, the seeds of the future, did too. As hospitals got packed with comatose children, other kids found that they had simply given up. Some turned explosively violent, sending community after community into a hopeless state of chaos. However, one girl travels across the world with the message of her brother, finding the wills of those who have fallen asleep and not woken up. One girl, a clock which refuses to acknowledge when they stopped counting.


C

Main Characters: Chrome, and probably two others who I haven't decided on. But mostly Chrome.

Other Characters: Pretty much all other characters, from A to Z. This time, I won't be using crappy OCs, or any OCs at all.

Rating: Pg-13, possibly M later on.

Update Speed: From daily to weekly, and no longer unless I say so.

Pairings: Of all magnitudes. Boy/Boy, Boy/Girl, and Girl/Girl. There will be romance, but between which characters I've got no clue. FEEL FREE TO SUGGEST PAIRINGS.

So. This is the first story I've planned on writing since I ditched Faceless nearly a year ago. I know I kinda totally completely let down the people who were reading it, but my drive kind of died. I don't plan on letting this story die as easily, though. Due to 'life stuff' I think my perspective on writing kind of changed, and I want to make something on here that's more unique. Faceless was really bland, cliché and had too many idiot characters. Hopefully I've improved. I'm working on the first chapter now, and in a day or so I'll be done. In an effort to not get tired of writing that quickly I'll try and pace myself after spring break and write between when I'm studying and practicing. So yeah. I suck at author's notes and stuff. Also the Chrome writers sure have changed over the past year 0.0. WHERE IS DEADLY-CHRONICLES?!
