The year is 2055 and now there are floating buildings in New York City. My home planet Earth had just exploded and me and millions of others escaped to Mars. It’s been seven years since the earth has exploded and now I’m 21 years old. The population is at about 16 million people and we’ve slowly start ed creating buildings and homes and our civilization is slowly coming together.
The year is 2055 and now there are floating buildings in New York City. My home planet Earth had just exploded and me and millions of others escaped to Mars. It’s been seven years since the earth has exploded and now I’m 21 years old. The population is at about 16 million people and we’ve slowly started creating buildings and homes and our civilization is slowly coming together.
You might be asking how we build all of these buildings? Well, we don’t know where they came from, but when we first landed on Mars we found billions of spaceship parts just laying there on the ground. Thanks to all the scientists we have we figured out how to use these parts and we slowly started building these floating towers and homes. We’ve all decided to rename this city New York City to honor the old city that was caught in the explosion of earth.
We still don’t know where all these parts came from, but all we know is that it’s some new type of technology that has never been seen before. They look like they were the part of the spaceship that made it fly. Scientists discovered a few years later how to use them and with the help of some architects and construction workers, we all worked together to build the city we live in today.

LIGULA MANGA No. 001 (cont’d. . .) You also might be wondering how the earth exploded? It was something unexplainable. There was a voice in the sky one day and they said we had a month to evacuate the Earth or else we would all die. At first there were people who didn’t believe the voice and continued to live their normal lives. However, many disasters were happening all around the world. Earthquakes, volcano eruptions, tsunami’s, etc. We all realized that the voice was right and within a week many scientists were able to make a huge rocket that could carry at least a billion people. How did they build a rocket that big in a week you’re probably asking? They built it the same way we built New York City. These mysterious parts were all just in one random grassland. The president himself told everyone around the world to pack their bags and head over to area 51. People from all cultures were there and it was a huge crowd. I was honestly lucky to get into the rocket because some people didn’t get inside the rocket and they got caught in the explosion. So back to the question of how the Earth exploded. . . Well sorry to break it to you but we don’t know either. We also still don’t know where that voice came from. Anyways, today was the anniversary of our escape to Mars. This day is also a day to remember our loved ones that got caught in the explosion. There’s a parade going on in the park so I was meeting my buddy Mike at the parade. “Hey John where have you been?” said Mike. I was running late so I was hoping Mike wasn’t going to be too mad. After we had a little chat, the announcer at the parade said that it was about to start. Me and Mike started running towards all of the floats and we were watching the parade. I don’t know why but I had a bad feeling that day but I just thought it was nothing. “Hello!” I heard out of nowhere. I thought I was going crazy but when I looked around everyone else also looked confused. Again we all heard “Hello!” and I immediately had flashbacks of the same voice seven years ago. Then the sky started getting dark and I just heard some engines that were very loud. They sounded like some airplane engines but I couldn’t tell what it was. Then I saw something in the sky and it looked like a UFO. There was a very bright beam of light coming from the UFO and it looked as if something was coming out of it. It looked like a squid or something and then it started coming towards the park. The alien or whatever was coming towards all of us started talking and it said, “Hello friends.”
We were all confused but then the alien started to explain how he was a king. “My name is m#4% but you can just call me Jake. We aliens love peace and we noticed that the Earth was in danger. You might remember hearing a voice in the sky seven years ago. Well, that was us warning you about the explosion”. The president thanked the aliens and they went back into the void of space. Well I was just there still kind of shocked to learn that aliens are actually real, but I’m not complaining. We were saved and that’s all that matters. Or so I thought… Later that day I realized something felt off. It was as if I felt a presence in my home but when I looked around there was nothing. I just turned on my tv and fell asleep. Little did I know that this would change my whole life. When I woke up, I wasn’t at home. I started to look around and I saw one person with some type of army suit. I asked where I was and he told me I was in the U.S. army’s base and I was selected to fight in a war against the aliens. I was confused because a day ago the aliens said that they wanted to maintain peace and that they
