The persistent buzz of my phone sliced through the quiet hum of my small apartment. No one ever texted me. Not my 'work friends' – we tolerated each other at best – and certainly not any actual friends, because there were none. At twenty-three, it was just me, myself, and I in this vast, indifferent world.

My eyes flickered open to the harsh glow of the screen: a message from the government. That was never good. This was America, after all, the land of dreams, and the land of a perpetually screwed-up government. It was 2886, and despite a nuclear war centuries ago, some things never changed. We still got up, worked, ate, and paid bills, just like the 'ancient ones.'

“Take shelter, war warning.” The words blinked back at me. Another nuclear war? I scoffed, rolling my eyes. After the last one, all nuclear tech was supposedly gone. This had to be a test, a joke. What war? Who would even fight? I ignored it, pulling myself out of bed. Shame on me, I thought, heading to the bathroom to get ready for another soul-crushing day at my corporate job.
