Dystopian Elpis p.1

Sirens wailing, tv static buzzing, and the quiet murmur of voices from the radio. In the early days, THEY said the procedure would cure all diseases. Many parents rushed for the opportunity. The children were called the Designer generation, now they are just known as the 'Hollow' generation they were supposed to be the best of us. Now, they are just the cause of fear, sickness, and destruction. Not everyone could afford the procedure, Your parents couldn't once you were born So you are a part of the last few who were naturally born. The radio cut through my thoughts like a knife with an announcement "The Hollow Men are migrating. We suggest everyone to go into lockdown." I grab my stuff and go into our room. thumbled with the lock till I heard the soft Click. Safety. For now. I can't promise that you will survive And I can't promise I'Il always be here But I can tell you my little one that you are the hope of humanity. You are my little Elpis.
