After World War Three, the world was in shambles living in a post-apocalyptic state. Every country was destroyed except North America. Only Canada, United States, and Mexico survived the gruesome war. After 100 years of this some calling this "dystopian" in nature, civilization grew back and evolved to form one country called "The United Communities of North America", better known as the UCNA. 

After the "Reconstruction Period" in North America, communities were built. Society flourished and rebuilt again. Everyone is restricted to their own world. When 15-year-old Griffin Spectral gets a rare job as an engineer, he feels excited of what's to come. But later on, he learns the harsh truth about his community. More clues pop out that broke his view that were meant to be hidden. His view on his community changes harshly and questions his "perfect" life and society. 

Definitely read this if u love the giver and the hunger games. New readers always appreciated!

Alpha: Book One of the Alpha Trilogy

After all that room thing is done, we went back to his main room in his house, which looks like a living room, without the TV or couch. He gave me this broken electrical device with wires sticking out. 


"Your phone." He replied in a monotone voice. 


I took out my wire clippers, I don't know the name, but I tried to reconnect it, or cut it depending on how damaged it is. 


I walked off giving up by saying those dreaded words, "Nothing but broken wires and a spark flying out of it.". 


"Don't worry, you'll get it. You can forget this thing today. Looks like I'm gonna sell it somewhere." Wolf said with a sympathetic voice. 


"So, what am I gonna do today?" I ask. 


"Nothing, just....nothing for you today." he replied with his tired voice. 


He picked up his favorite alcoholic beverage, which was mixed with Morphling liquid. 


"So, you're gonna drink that all day?". 


Feeling concerned, Wolf stabbed a knife on the table and said, "Yeah, gonna wipe out my traumatic experiences 7 or 9 years ago...". 


This clicked. What's wrong with him? Is that why he has mood swings?


    I went to my room and me, being the laziest and energetic one in Alpha, got flashbacks of getting mocked and cussed at because of that. I have to do chores and have to pull my weight and get active consistently. 


I sat down on my bed and muttered a few mocking words to me, "Why am I so dumb and stupid?! Shouldn't I fixed it?! AHH.". 


I put my hands on my head in guilt and shame. Community perfection, not so much. I heard a knock on my door. 


"Yeah? What do you want Wolf?" as I switched back to my normal self. 


He didn't come in. A slip of paper dropped through the slip in the door. I picked it up, unfold it, and it said, "Grif, come here for the phone you have to fix. Like, now.". 


Oh come on. I reluctantly walked out my room and sat down next to him saying, "So, I just mocked myself for not being a perfectionist.". 


That caught his attention, he replied, "Don't worry, I've been there too.". He put his fist out and we fist bump each other. Mentor and apprentice equals a heartfelt relationship in a few days or weeks.
