Located within the remotes of what used to be the Sahara Desert and heavily rooted beneath the earth, City Calypse is to date the largest Top Secret Project the world has ever known. There are three layers of protection outside and two layers on the inside. The outer walls are lined with solar panels to absorb and convert the sun’s harmful rays into energy.
The bunker is independently capable of recycling its water and oxygen and producing its own energy for Housing, research labs, educational institution and recreational centers such as gyms and Sports Centers. There is also the Agricultural farm where they conduct cloning and growing of livestock and crops. This area is strictly prohibited from public viewing.
The Apartments are built from insulating materials with cool roofing and are extremely small but efficient. Each family is strictly prohibited from having more than one home until the child has come of age, 25 years old and moves out on his/her own. The Apartments have 2 rooms each with one bathroom and a kitchen. Each member of the community is registered with a unique identification card. Each card symbolizes your level of importance to the survival of the City. Of course, at the very top, we have, Governments officials, Scientist, and Doctors, Engineers, Craftsmen such as Mechanic and Technicians The next tier are teachers, Operators, farmers, Plumbers, and Handy-men/women and the very last are daycare helpers for the elderly and children and Mobi drivers.
A child must attend school full time from the age of 3-15, and then he must attend school part-time while working as an intern in a position given to him after completing his adult evaluations exams (AEE). This is a very specific Exam which assesses your level of intellect, maturity, and creativity.
MOMENTS AGO
*cough-cough*
Beep! Beep! Beep! –
“Will someone shut off that damn smoke alarm?”
Zod opened his eyes to a room filled with dust and debris.
–What’s going on? - He thought. –There something on my legs… it really hurts! - The room caved in from the bomb and they were practically buried in rubble, well, Professor Cage for sure. The soldiers vigilantly walked in and pointed their guns at all areas within the room.
“All clear, Mam.”
The General, Head of National Security Ms. Bolt walked in. This 5’5 inches lady has been working for the Government for as long as she can remember. She joined the Academy at the tender age of 9 and in no time became the class Pundit, graduated at 16, surpassed all her colleagues and has been in charge for over 16 years.
“Mam, this one isn’t breathing, but he has a pulse. It’s weak.”
She walked over to his body and slowly looked down upon him. At a glace, he was clearly unconscious with multiple broken limbs.
“Take him to the Infirmary and see what they can do.” She ordered. “He still has something that belongs to me.”
“What about this one?” The soldier turned to point at Zod.
*Voice on Radio* “we just received a report of two boys who locked themselves in Exit 4. One of them is armed.”
“What should we do?” They asked over the radio.
She scornfully looked down at the pitiful scientist before her. “Shoot to kill.” She mercilessly ordered.
She turned to Zod and gave a dark chuckle, “You fool!”
“You’ll never catch him!” He muttered.
The smug yet equally terrifying look on Deborah’s face would send anyone running for their life. She was a force to be reckoned with and all her subordinates equally feared and respected her. She armed her right hand and directed it at him,
“We’ll see…”
