Share it:      Laziness. You see, the humans figured another peaceful world would come naturally, after their last step forward. But certain people immediately seized the opportunity, and now the ‘world' was ruled by a single criminal mastermind. This single criminal lord controlled the Orchard. There was only one source of food in the entire world and it was the Apple Orchard. According to legend, Abrahamic religions' legend, this ‘world' was desolate when Adam and Eve first arrived, so Adam removed the seeds from the ‘evil apple' that Eve had consumed. They were planted, and the humans had since adapted to now live off of only apples and the apple tree's roots. In present time, the Orchard was only a bite mark on the surface of this new ‘world.' In addition to the constant wars that ravaged the planet, there were always religious movements occurring, mostly because some people had decided that the number the ‘3' was the last in line. So now people were split between the apocalypse insanity and the composed belief of resurrection. Wars often raged between the two. In one memorable war a fire nearly burned down the entire Orchard. After the fire was quenched, the two sides blamed each other for the inferno and started another conflict over it. Officially, the resurrectionists set the Orchard on fire. These people were still stuck in the age of Medieval warfare, mostly due to thier lack of industry caused by incessant wars. They had the knowledge, not the means. In one section of the Orchard, a young group of resurrectionists were having a gathering: "What is he doing hitting on my wife?!" Simon hotly thought. He moseyed over to the gentleman and invited him into the host's house for a drink. The man was unfortunately unaware who was inviting him to a drink, the lady's husband-Simon. The two sat down together as Simon poured a glass of wine. As the man tipped his cup up to drink, Simon excused himself and walked behind the man and tipped his cup further, causing the man to sputter. Before the man came to his senses, Simon was wringing his neck. After the deed was done, Simon found a saw and dismembered the corpse for simpler storage. Simon carted the corpse deep into the orchard. He dug a whole near the base of a tree and discovered several sets of human remains. "Good," Simon thought, "this tree is nearly out of fertilizer." Simon deposited the suitor into the whole and covered the man with a blanket of dirt. As Simon turned around and, to his surprise, found a woman with a sword at her side. (At anytime, in this world, it was considered polite to be armed). "What happened to my husband?" she inquired, drawing her sword. Simon could only glance at his bloody muddy hands. She calmly walked towards Simon, while Simon considered the odds. His only weapon was his shovel, with its wooden shaft. He realized that his twig was no match for a sword. He calmly fell back on his resurrectionists beliefs. The wife by now was galloping at him, beat red with anger. With a single stroke, she removed Simon's head. Copyright 2008 Chris |
