      Part One

      Why am I here? The crisp, ex-military authority in the speaker’s voice instantly quieted the room, despite the fact that it was packed full with a few hundred eighteen-year-olds. I was impressed. I hadn’t thought anyone could have gotten this group to shut up. Then again, like me, none of the kids in this room were ordinary- whatever that meant. Anyone under twenty-five had grown up during the aftermath of the war- which meant that they’d grown up in hell, or worse. It had definitely been ‘worse’ for me. Or so they told me when they brought me in for my quarterly medical examinations. I couldn’t remember much of it, which seemed to be a mercy.

      Why am I here? The speaker repeated, quieter this time, and I looked up at him. He was pretty much what I'd expected, a man with medium brown skin that could have been from half of the world at this point. He didn't have hair, but what he did have were scars. Lots of them, covering his skull and reaching ruin down over his face. Mirrored black sunglasses and a crisp suit completed the look of cleaned-up badass that he seemed to be going for. It suited him. Once he was sure every one of us was paying attention, he continued. You're all doubtlessly asking that question, and up until now, you were told nothing. Well, wonder no more, because I'm here to give you the answer.

      There was a squeal of feedback as the speaker stepped behind the podium at the front of the room and adjusted the microphone to his impressive height. "Good morning, everyone, I am the Director of the Counter-Extinction Foundation. As you may or may not have heard, we were charged by the Presidente to come up with a plan to preserve the future of the human race. He paused for a moment, to let the enormity of such a task sink into our minds. All around me, everyone shifted a little uneasily. We all knew what he meant by Counter-Extinction. We all knew why the future of the human race" was something that needed preserving. We'd all been children- little more than babies, really, when everyone had decided to try to nuke everyone else back to the Stone Age.

      Seeing us all sufficiently affected, the Director continued. We all are intimately familiar with what is at stake. No one alive today can deny the grave importance of this task. Were it not for the Savior of the World- he paused to make an unfamiliar gesture that reminded me of nothing more than a Catholic genuflection, we would not have been given this chance at all. With all of that in mind, we were given a mandate and a blank check to make it happen. He leaned forward, his mirrored glasses boring into all of us like the eyes of some man-sized insect. "And we have a plan." The Director swept an arm from one side of the room to the other. You all are that plan.

      Despite the Director’s commanding presence, a chorus of exclamations swept the room in a wave of confusion, incredulity, and excitement. He waited it out, scarred and weathered hands gripping the edges of his podium for support. When the room grew quiet once more, he continued. "The plan is simple. We will send out trained specialists to worlds with the right ingredients to support life. There they will construct what they need to fast-track the transformation of their planet or moon into a place that can support life. Ten years later, the colonists will arrive. The human race will have been seeded across local space, and no longer will the fate of our species rest in the hands of a single
