year 2109
The city light is so dark, on ground level, but as you move higher up in the sky the lights are getting brighter and brighter. Flying cars everywhere, thousands of robots, humans and other creatures living side by side. The city is breathing and suffocating.
A human and a Klingon are having an affair, a lovely romance. They are touching each other making love and kissing. There is written in the Grand lords laws, that creatures of the same spices can have forms of emotional romances.
These two are breaking the law! If this high function society is suppose to work humans, robots and klingons must keep a intimate distance at all time. But these two are screwing it, they want to live... No matter what the new world order says or what not.
They are meeting, on ground level. No one goes on ground level unless they want to be ripped a piece and slaughtered by the evil spirits. Gangs and flesh eating bacteria lives there. But the two lovers are going anyway, that's the only way they can be left alone – without the monitors and watchmen coming to get them.
The meeting takes place. An abandoned pizza hut, from the early days of the 21th century, a place totally forgotten and left to rotten – while the city is growing larger and higher every day. He checks if there is someone nearby. The lights of the night are dark. Dark light, that's how the ground level seems - and it is quiet. He look up at his lover, so beautiful. He lift his proboscis towards her, she makes a happy-grimace. Suddenly, they are not alone anymore. Hundreds of bacteria are circling them. The she-creature gets lifted from the ground, she screams.
Chapter 3
A love scenario just turned into a serious and dangerous situation , They scream their lungs out, but its no helping. The bacteria are coming closer. Suddenly I hear some future rap travelling at the speed of sound, The sound is coming closer and closer. It sounds like a Macco, what else could it be?. The Maccos are known for being crazy as hell, ruling the underground societies and demonstrating against the upper classes, hence why they live on the ground. The Macco was driving a yellow coloured Dawoolanoo, no shock because that's the type of flying cars they usually drive. Poor quality flying cars is what their known for, I mean only star gangsters drive Dawolanoo's because they are cheap as hell. After the 4'th world war and the global virus epidemic and last but not least the Finance crisis witch struck the world so bad that the economy is based on inverted negative values instead of gains,
Amazingly Dawonallo still produces crappy flying cars today because they miracelously survived all the crisis
