== | == The Sky That Spoke == | ||
'' | It was supposed to be a regular evening. '''Eli Turner'''—an investigative journalist with more enemies than friends—sat in his dimly lit New York apartment, cigarette smoke curling toward the ceiling. He had been tracking strange reports all week: military drones spotted over '''New Jersey''', bizarre weather anomalies, and whispers of an “operation” people were too afraid to name. Eli had lived through enough government cover-ups to know when something wasn’t right. | ||
Then his phone buzzed. | |||
''Breaking News'': "Mysterious Lights Over New York Skyline." | |||
He glanced out the window and froze. The night sky above '''Manhattan''' was aglow. From his vantage point in Brooklyn, he could see it—a massive, radiant figure hovering above the city, shimmering as if made of light and mist. Its face was serene, divine even, and it raised its arms as though blessing the earth. A voice, deep and resonant, echoed across the city: | |||
<blockquote>''"Do not be afraid. I have come to unite you. Bow, and you will live. Resist, and you will perish."''</blockquote> | |||
The words vibrated through Eli’s bones. People outside were screaming and sobbing. In the streets, drivers abandoned their cars to stare skyward. Police sirens howled, but no one knew where to go. | |||
Eli grabbed his camera. “This isn’t real,” he muttered, trying to steady his hands. He flipped the infrared filter on. The figure flickered—through the lens, its outline wavered, and behind the glow, he could just make out '''drones'''. Thousands of them, projecting the image like some twisted theatrical performance. | |||
''“This is it,”'' Eli whispered. ''“It’s Project Blue Beam.”'' | |||
--- | --- | ||
== The | == The Illness == | ||
By morning, '''New York''' was locked down. The news described the figure as a “celestial messenger,” and across the globe, similar events occurred. In Los Angeles, the sky filled with alien ships. In Texas, entire towns reported visions of angels. Every country had its “miracles,” all demanding the same thing: '''unity under one government'''. | |||
But Eli knew better. This wasn’t divine. It was planned. | |||
He sat in his apartment, poring over footage. Calls to friends in the media went unanswered. Many were parroting the official line—''“We have been chosen”''—while those who questioned it had already gone dark. | |||
Then the second wave hit. | |||
Eli noticed it first on the subway. People coughing, slumped against the walls. Ambulances lined the streets as hospitals overflowed with patients suffering from '''mysterious neurological symptoms'''. Government drones—smaller this time—buzzed overhead. Rumors swirled that they were spraying something into the air. | |||
'' | Within days, the government announced a '''self-replicating mRNA vaccine'''. It was mandatory. Eli’s neighbors, terrified, lined up at pop-up clinics stationed near supermarkets and schools. Drones hovered over the crowds, watching. | ||
Eli refused. He had seen enough. The vaccine spread through communities faster than any illness, and within a week, whispers began of infertility, seizures, and sudden deaths. | |||
''“It’s a cull,”'' Eli told his friend Maria, a doctor who had been tracking the illness. | |||
''“They’re killing us off.”'' | |||
“It’s worse than that,” Maria replied. “The vaccine spreads on its own. You don’t need to take it—it’s airborne now.” | |||

== The | == The Towers == | ||
By the summer of 2027, the streets of '''New York''' were unrecognizable. '''Automated weapon towers''' appeared overnight, standing at every major bridge and intersection. They hummed softly, scanning faces and movements. Those who failed to comply—who spoke out, refused vaccines, or broke curfews—were targeted. | |||
Eli watched from a rooftop as one of the towers turned its gun on a man who had run from a checkpoint. The sound of gunfire was quick, efficient. The crowd screamed, then fell silent. The tower returned to its idle position, blinking its red lights. | |||

''' | ''“They’re herding us,”'' Maria whispered. She had joined Eli after escaping from her hospital, where vaccinated patients had begun to die en masse. ''“This isn’t just New York. It’s happening everywhere.”'' | ||
Reports from other cities were worse. Drones had sprayed entire neighborhoods. Hurricanes wiped out the Gulf Coast, and droughts turned the Midwest into dust bowls. Weather systems felt engineered, as though someone was pulling the strings. | |||
'' | ''“It’s HAARP,”'' Eli said. ''“They’re using it to make the world unlivable. Drive us into cities where they can control us.”'' | ||
--- | --- | ||
== | == The Resistance == | ||
Eli and Maria made contact with an underground group calling themselves '''The Last Light'''. They met in abandoned tunnels below the city, where drones couldn’t reach. The group’s leader, an ex-military officer named '''Captain Rhodes''', laid it out for them. | |||
''“It’s not about unity. It’s about control,”'' Rhodes growled. ''“They’ve staged all of this. The fake messiahs, the sickness, the weather. They’re forcing us to beg for a ‘One World Government.’ And when they get it, they’ll kill the rest of us.”'' | |||
“What do we do?” Maria asked. | |||
'' | Rhodes grunted. ''“We fight.”'' | ||
The resistance uncovered evidence that '''Project Blue Beam''' was being orchestrated by a coalition of powerful world leaders and corporations. The final phase would involve the '''global shutdown of financial systems'''. All money would be replaced with '''Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)''', which could be frozen with the flick of a switch. Those who resisted would be starved into submission. | |||

== The | == The Final Broadcast == | ||
Eli knew they couldn’t win. Rhodes and his fighters were being picked off one by one by '''AI drones''' and weapon towers. Maria had fallen ill after being exposed to one of the pathogen zones. | |||
As the towers swept the city and drones blacked out the sky, Eli made his way to an old radio station. If the world was ending, someone had to tell the truth. | |||
He sat in front of the microphone, sweat dripping down his face, and pressed RECORD. | |||
''“This is Eli Turner. If you’re hearing this, they’ve already won. Project Blue Beam is real. It’s a lie—a way to break us. They’ve poisoned us, starved us, and told us it’s salvation. Don’t believe them. Fight back. You are not alone.”'' | |||
Before he could finish, he heard the whine of drones closing in. | |||
The last thing Eli saw was the blinking red light of an '''automated tower'''. | |||

== | == Epilogue == | ||
By 2028, the world belonged to them. | |||
'''New York City''' was quiet now. The towers hummed softly, keeping watch over empty streets. Holographic figures still appeared in the skies, proclaiming peace and unity, though no one was left to listen. | |||
'' | The '''One World Government''' ruled without opposition. Those who had survived lived in '''smart cities''', monitored and controlled, their every move dictated by drones and AI. | ||
Somewhere, deep underground, a faint voice still echoed through old radio waves: | |||
<blockquote>''“If you’re hearing this, you are not alone…”''</blockquote> | |||
But no one answered. | |||
