1st Version
Incubator
It will be
a distant future. Human race would be developed so well that they have
everything prepared for them in advance. When a young baby born there will be
already all information about his preferences, allergies, taste, future
appearance and even air and temperature. Each person from birth will be already
distributed to his own job according to the information about his inclinations
and talents. Each day with menu, fashion, activities would be planned for life
and they wouldn’t have to think about next day. Everyone have their place in
life defined from birth.
One day he
will be doing his usual activity (sculpturing) he goes to the stock to find
instruments, but wouldn’t be able to fins them on the place so he looks around
(it’s just small room, almost empty, with empty shelves). And on the top of
shelve he finds a box(there will be a title “throw away” on it) . He will put
chair and reach it. Inside he founds a photo album of one family.(There will be
photos of outside world with all trees, sea and mountains. And all family
members would be on photo, that’s surprises our main character).
One day our main character would be
passing through transit tunnel to do his planned by system work, when suddenly
women passing by suddenly having hooked on a wire falls on our character and
scratches him. There will be a drip of blood coming from scratch.
He will be thinking about his
feelings after scratching- pain
He never felt it before. It makes
him feel different, kind of alive.
After what
he found out he decides to run away from this place. But he scares to do it
alone. He doesn’t have friends, but he has a
girlfriend intended to him by system. He persuades her to run away by
showing her photos and she agrees.
They planned their run away at
night. By stealing security’s ID they opens doors, but at the end they almost
get caught by guards, but luckily get out of there. They open last door together and founds out that outside world would be
destroyed.

Update
It will be
a distant future. Human race would be developed so well that they have
everything prepared for them in advance. When a young baby born there will be
already all information about his preferences, allergies, taste, future
appearance and even air and temperature. Each person from birth will be already
distributed to his own job according to the information about his inclinations
and talents. Each day with menu, fashion, activities would be planned for life
and they wouldn’t have to think about next day. Everyone have their place in
life defined from birth.
Noel is
average citizen of Arkopolys. His entire day is planned out. One day he wakes
up usually at 6:00 a.m. , breakfast already prepared and served on the table.
Does everything that was planned on his clocks and goes to his job. He works as carpenter and works with wood. After long day
he comes back home at the same time and dinner will be waiting for him here.
Exactly at 9 p.m. his girlfriend comes in and they spend some time together
cuddle, kiss and e.t.c. They fall a sleep together, but when he wakes up, he is
alone. And everyday is like this.
One day he
wakes up and found a hair on the other
side of bed. He takes it and keeps in
little box. Noel goes to his job and starts cutting wood and all the time
he gets distracted by hair in a box. He
really misses his gf because they can see each other only specific time in a
day and no longer. While watching at hair again he accidentally cuts his finger
on cutting machine. Noel’s finger starts bleeding and he runs to the “emergency
button”. When he presses it white box appears on the table like hologram. First box will be full of albums, he throws
them away, because this is not what he needs and presses button again. And finally first-aid kit appears on
the table. He bandages his finger and takes
a seat to rest and realizes first box that he threw off . He approaches box and search inside. He founds
a lot of old photos of past, there will be photos of trees and lakes, mountains
and big families on vacation. He start to think where all this gone, why he
can’t find here any lakes only fountains. Also don’t allowed to live the town.
Noel founds all these suspicious.
He comes
home there is Emma waiting with heated food. They do everything as usual and go
to sleep. Few hours later Noel wakes up at night when Emma is leaving and grabs
her hand
Noel holds
her hand
-I want to
show you something.
Noel shows
her photos.
But she
seems not impressed
Noel looks
at her eyes for a few minutes, when he finally realizes that she is not
interested at all.
He slowly
puts her hands down.
- Hey Em, did you ever think that
the way we are living is wrong?
- No, Everything is how it’s
supposed to be and perfectly planned.
- Emma, but you never seen other
life maybe this is not how it’s should be, maybe we should have more choice.
- Neither you, Noel, you can’t doubt
the system.
- Don’t you want to take a chance to
discover another life. Run away with me!
- No, are you crazy? Why we have to
live place that is perfect for us.
- Okay, then I’m leaving without
you!
He stand up and wants to leave, but Emma holds
him with strength that you don’t expect from fragile looking woman like her. And
she says “ Stop, you can’t live !”
He repels
her and runs away.
