It’s Not the End
-------by Yalen
New York,Nov. 6th,2040
This is the end of the World War III.As you can see ,there are huge black holes everywhere on the earth.They are the shell craters of the several atom bombs first fired by some so-called non-unclear states.The United States was one of the victims,but yet it fought back.And then they fought back again .So almost the whole world is destroyed in the war.Now the end of the war is more like the end of the world.
I’m Yalen,I think I’m the only one survivor on the earth.Am I not radiated?Yes,I am.But I am alive,at least,I, myself think so.You want to know the reason?Sorry,I don’t know.Maybe God wants to leave me to be the cleaner.You see,(maybe I should say”I see”,because I’m not so sure that I can have a reader.),almost 10 billion people were killed in the war, cleaning is not a very easy and comfortable job.But this is the only thing I can do,what else should I do?There is nobody else to ask me do anything,I hope there is ,but I can’t find one till now.
Then I want to talk more about the radiation,from the exploding of the atom bombs.I was radiated twice,I thought I was going to die like others,my face would be twisted,my body would be dried,my brain would be stopped from working in a very sudded.But it didn’t happen,every organ of my body is working pretty well.Even ,I even feel better than ever,sometimes I feel I am stronger than before.Several days ago I fell into a hole by a finger’s breadth,then I jumped with a moro reflex,then I jumped almost one mile,I was surprised by myself.Then I want to have another jump,but just two and a half meters.Later I realized that the force came when I am in danger,I can’t call it out to control it.
I’ve been busy dealing with the bodies for a period of time.I throw them into the holes to let the magma burn them.The job is becoming more and more boring.But as I told you,I’ ve got nothing else to do.
But these days,I don’t feel very well.Yet I’m not sick,when I sleep,I feel there are many things moving.But when I open my eyes and see clearly,there is nothing but the bodies.That is weird.
Yesterday I was sleeping again after one day’s working.Then I felt them,the moving things, again,I couldn’t let them slip this time.Then I pretended to be sleeping till,then I jumped up and,and…OH,MY GOD!What I saw? The bodies were moving by themselves!The bodies I threw into the holes were climbing up.They were everywhere.
Are they the resurgent ?I don’t know, I was frightened,so I ran,or rather say,I jumped.By the force,I jumped one mile and one mile,then after some several minutes,I was in Toronto.
Toronto,Nov. 11th,2040
I’ve been in Toronto for some days,there is no need for me to go back,everywhere is all about the same in the world.Though it’s November now,the temperature is not so cold.Due to the war,the world is in one climate now,not too cold nor too hot,it’s just the best to me except for the dreggy stagnant atmosphere. I’ve never seen the moon or a little star since the war.
Nowadays I’ve learned to control the force inside me,in reality ,it’s not very difficult,what I need to do is to focus on what I want to do,then I can do it with the force.
The corpses are scared of me,I think it’s because they know I have the force,they run when they see me.But I don’t want to bury them,I don’t throw them into the magma any more. Most of them were innocent.I know they were general men before, bosses, workers,barbers,teachers…But now they are in only one form—zombie,a corpse that can move.But what disappoint me is that they can’t speak, they can’t even give me a gesture.They just fear me.And I don’t know what they are really doing,they are always moving to somewhere with a concrete iron or a big stone block or something like that.I want to find out what they are doing, but I can’t till now.
Sydney,Dec.20th,2040
Yesterday, I was bored again,so I jumped and made some somersaults,then now I’m in Sydney.
What surprised me here is not the corpse,they are all the same everywhere,is the woman I saw.She is not a corpse,she is just like me,a human,or a superman.More surpring,she is Sally,the girl I loved secretly when we were high school students.She went to Sydney just before the day I wanted to speak out my love to her.I was sad for a long period.It’s so interesting and fun to see her again in such a time,in such a situatin.But yet I’m happy that she is alive.She got a surprised face too when I jumped to where just one meter in front of her.
Sydney,Oct.31st,2040
Sitting on the ruins where used to be the Sydney Opera House ,We talked a lot about the days we spent together.We laughed and laughed. I often wonder what if these things happened before the war.
And today is the end of 2040,we want to make something different to mark this different year.Sally say she wanted to go to Panay Island, in the Philippines,before.
Panay,Jan.1st,2041
Happy new year to Sally and myself.
Yesterday I said sally wanted to go to the Panay Island,so we flew,or rather say a big jump,there.But the island is replaced by a hole,the war have destroyed it.
So we had a little rest at the edge of the hole.But unfortunately,Sally was not so good at controlling the force then,she fell into it.So jumped in to save her.And I caught her successfully.But the things we saw when were falling surprised us.There are many passages under the earth,which connect all the holes together.And the zombies are going in with the concrete iron or blocks and out with nothing.Now I know why they are carrying things everyday.They must be controlled by and working for some power in the deep of the earth.
Then I have a feeling that the war is not completely ended.Does the power come from humans or aliens? I’m filled with questions.Now I’m going into the hole with Sally,my beautiful girl ,holding me tightly… |
