A grey blanket of clouds covered the sky, and the thin air made it hard to breathe. This was one of the few times in her life that Tanya would be able to go outside, and she was happy about that. She never liked the outdoors... infact, nobody did.

Ever since a few years ago, before anyone currently living in the village was alive, trees stopped growing, and the sun never showed it's beautiful rays of light. With these hard living conditions, everyone was forced to move somewhere safe, such as where

they live now, in an artificial "new world".
Though every few months the weakest children have to go out a fetch water for the whole village. This time around, Tanya was chosen to fetch the water.

I know that the location is not very far."
Tanya read over this note several times, before noticing a signature that read out "Mo". She showed others this note, hoping that someone his her village would know what it meant, but everyone else only saw a

"Am I crazy? Am I a real Human Being? Do I really know all of these fellow villagers?" The were some of the thoughts flowing through Tanya's head. She had no idea what to do, but she did know that she had to find that protal and save
