"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>I was about to pick my basket up and go back to where Hae In had left her basket when a thud suddenly came on the changing room's door and my eyes immediately darted to it as my hand went to the gun in my holster. The thud came again and I pulled my gun out of the holster before surveying my surroundings to see if I was still the only one around. I thought of leaving what was definitely an infected in the changing room alone but then I remembered that they could open doors and began to slowly approach the door when a gunshot suddenly filled the air.</p>

<p>I instantly ducked, thinking it was from behind me, but I realized it wasn't after a couple of seconds. The thuds became incessant and I quickly got to my feet, scanning my surroundings in a hurry. My heart rate went back to normal after I realized that it was most likely one of us that shot an infected in another store or on the ground floor.</p>
