《Encounters Out There》As Fast as Possible
Advertisement
Francesca Smith rode her hoverbike. Powered by her legs, it transferred her kinetic energy into a superconducting hover generator. Most of her fellow hover cyclists ran on fuel cells and ghost-pedaled.
One day, she was riding along up a steep Martian hill to work within her dome colony’s transportation network and was getting passed by FC cyclists, who would frequently honk at her to get out of the way.
She took a break, and someone stopped by.
“Hey, wow, that’s old school. Leg power? Why would you bother? You’re so slow and sweaty.”
Francesca shook her head.
“What’s wrong?”
“Sometimes it’s all about the movement, the freedom, and the exercise. Not getting there as fast as possible.”
The FC cyclist shrugged. “Whatever, weirdo!” and sped off.
Francesca muttered to herself, “I sure love riding, but I’m surrounded by assholes.”

Warning: The grimdark tag is there for a reason. This is a dark tale and the author is a sadist. (which inevitably means that the characters are masochists. Well, it's not like they have a choice.)

Now, as he's about to have enough money to take them to safety, he receives an email from his old girlfriend ... which is remarkable, considering she's been presumed dead for years.

He convinces himself that it has to be a computer virus of some kind until he discovers something terrifying: the video might link his sister to the worst night of his life, the night his girlfriend went missing, the night of "The Red Christmas". Then he realizes this could be a threat; his sister's life could be in danger. As he starts to investigate who sent the video, Adam begins to uncover dark truths about his neighbors and finds evidence that there might be a larger conspiracy at play. The problem is that he's starting to suffer from hellish hallucinations that make him question what is real. Soon, the only clear thing to him is that someone doesn't want him to dig up the past. Will Adam be able to stay sane long enough to find out what really happened the night of "The Red Christmas"? Will he succeed in helping his family escape the country?
