humanity
The evolution of humanity, from one advancement to the next.
2050
2050 was just as beautiful as the new year rang from the bells of the Capital Hall. All rejoiced as another perfect year can occur. Life was great; another year would bring more success than ever expected. The lights worldwide hailed in such a place that finally fixed man's fatal flaws. The nations were at peace, and war was a distant story. The bright lights in the Capitals were illuminated with fireworks that rang in the sky. With no crime, all could celebrate with perfect peace. The world was on a good trajectory as the good revolution ended all destructive behaviors. This year would mark another successful year of The Great Counsel's rule to keep humanity from killing itself. It started regulating crime and expanding its power as man became more evil. The wars became too great, and there was a loss over trivial matters, so the council set up with the United Nations to keep the peace worldwide. All those who fought it were missing, as the rest were too scared to rebel. Only a place that had solved so many problems would be the best way for all to live. The announcements were made across the world, and everyone watched them regardless. The same message and most even believed it, was gathered, and the ones that dissented openly were gathered. They were never seen again, yet it was not enough for more in due time to rise up. At least that was taught to the children.

The Future
There are two crystal balls. One shows the future if evil defeats good. The other shows the future if good defeats evil. I will tell you what I see in the crystal ball that shows the future in 2050, twenty-five years from today's 2025 - if good defeats evil.

Future Preservation. Runner-Up in Future Fragments Challenge.
Every single day life on my island followed pretty much the same pattern. Until I saw the ghosts. I was on the beach with my cousins, scuttling over the rock pools searching from some crabs to use as bait. We were going to go fishing later on the edge of the reef. Then, out of nowhere, a bunch of hazy blue ghosts appeared, flickering into existence near the coconut palms. I yelled a warning to my cousins, but by the time anyone else looked they were gone.

A New Year. Top Story - January 2025.
"Have you heard, Thomas?" Moving the cup of tobacco leaf tea to his mouth, Thomas looked to the horizon before answering. When he spoke, the yellow rays of the new morning's sun were just beginning to peak over the horizon to the East.

Reimagining the American Dream
In 2050, the world looked nothing like it had at the dawn of the 21st century. Cities sparkled with clean, sustainable energy. Skyscrapers were adorned with vertical gardens that not only improved air quality but symbolized a profound shift in humanity’s relationship with nature. Hovering drones zipped silently through the air, delivering goods while avoiding harm to birds and insects. The hum of innovation resonated everywhere, but what stood out most was the palpable sense of unity and progress in human society.

What's the Hurry?
Cassie stood motionless, staring at the shelf displaying disposable plates and flatware. Hurry. She sighed. So many options. Why did there always have to be so many options? Too many things to consider: price, durability, biodegradability, aesthetic. Why had she volunteered to bring the plates and cutlery? She shook her head. She knew why. She’d always thought by the time she’d reached the ripe age of half a century that she’d activate some latent cooking or baking skill. She hadn’t.

Letters II :: THE DOOR IS OPEN
Some said it was the Captain's secret liquor cabinet. Some said Private Peters kept murdered bodies in that room (to be fair, after being cooped up inside Mars Station Raleigh for four months, listening to the unceasing sandstorm batter the hull, your imagination would get a bit darker too).

Secrets of the desert dome that Van Tassel took to the grave
It’s a familiar story: eccentric inventor in excellent health mysteriously suffers a fatal heart attack or unusual drug overdose; the body is cremated by authorities without the family’s knowledge and, more often than you’d expect, without an autopsy taking place.
