The Core Four is the most successful business in the subways of New York City. We were just another group in the abandoned subway station, A6. We slept, we ate, we sold; all in that little station. The walls and floors were solid cement, converted in small pebbles from the old train tracks. The lights were shut off by the city, so we…

As he got closer a space station can be seen. Flames can be seen licking away the insides of the station, as he emerges charred bodies can be seen. Lucas stood back in fear, as he quickly grabs out his walkie talkie. “Aiden we have a problem,” answered Luke. A moment of silence passed when a voice crackled through the walkie-talkie. "What's the problem?" replied Aiden. “You've got to see this for yourselves,” said Lucas. A few minutes past when a set of footsteps can be heard over the horizon.…
