Sell out with me - Episode 0 - Prologue

A world where everyone is a super, but are drugged to suppress their powers, as using turns you evil/mad.
The authority pairs people off to breed (marry) at 18.
But if you don't have at least 1 kid in 2 years, your force-ably re married.
Three chances, no kids then your for the pits.

As soon as a child is born, it is separated from the mother.

Machine nursed.
But camp commanders are your "parents".
Cannot have those pesky maternal attachments.


A mother must produce a baby at least every 2 years, or 10 babies, which ever comes first.

Children are machine nursed, and are brought up in "training camps".

Brother, sister, mother, father are all alien concepts, there is only the authority, the provider, the saviour.

You are taught to read, write, pt, cooking, and reliance on the authority.

Camps are very territorial, and there are regular inter camp competitions.

Accidents happen.

Children are tested all the time, that it becomes boring and routine.

No one quite knows what powers are super or not.

There could be real powers, but its recognizing what is or is nit a power without being snitched on.

Is running fast a power, if so how fast?
Should i be able to hear whats going on over there, but if i tell others what i heard, and they cannot hear that far, will they snitch me.

I cannot swim, they can, they must have powers.

But snitching on showers is rewarded by the authority.

But none should show
All must breed.
The machine must be fed.

Everyone must serve a month a year in the national service.
Not all return.

But the Authority is trying to breed the powers out of the nation.
That's why the Authority is pairing you off.
We must rid ourselves of this sin of supers.
The madness within.
The corruption.
The Authority know best.
You live for the Authority
By the Authorities graces you are alive.

Die to serve serve or die.

There are all the "normal" jobs available, as well as national service.

10 babies and you are exempt.
10 babies and you are free.
10 babies and you get to go to the wealthy place.

There is rumors of the authority having a different pill, a pill that allows you to use your powers without going mad.
But talk of it is treason
