"Fear is a feeling, but it tends to run deeper than that. It's like a virus. Resilient and highly contagious. And even the smallest seed of it can grow to destroy you."

°°°°°°

It's the year 2280. Airborne particles were invented with the intent to eradicate diseases but instead they become radioactive, toxic and severely deadly to anyone who breathes in even a tiny amount.

The world becomes a dystopia and is uninhabitable.

With time running out for humans on earth, Hiro Tachibana is one of the scientists that has to find out if a new planet is fit for habitation. But when people start turning up dead on the spaceship and there are more questions than answers, Hiro realizes that he may not be able to trust anyone.

Not even himself.

AN: This book is undergoing a MAJOR rewrite. The previous chapters are not available for now so don't start reading it. I'll post an announcement when I'm done editing. Thank you!

Beyond Earth

<p>Luscious, red apples dangled from the branches as they glowed in a rosy manner under the sunshine and I held the bottom of one apple before I rolled it upward off the branch, giving it a little twist. The stem easily removed from the spur of the branch and I placed the apple in the basket I was holding before I repeated the process again.</p>

<p>Cheri's mum was the one who told me that was how to properly pick an apple. If they came off easily, they're ready to be picked but if they require a good bit of yanking and tugging, they weren't. She insisted on two things though; don't pull the apple straight away from the tree and never, ever shake the branches.</p>
