Humans
In the quiet suburbs of Oklahoma, 16-year-old Ryan uncovers a shocking secret—his family and friends are not what they seem. As he grapples with this revelation, he must learn the true meaning of tolerance and acceptance, but not before facing a series of surprising and challenging obstacles. Will Ryan find a way to embrace the differences, or will he succumb to fear? Join him on this thrilling journey of discovery and acceptance.
Ryan's life in the Oklahoma suburbs seemed ordinary until he stumbled upon something strange. His dog, Max, had glowing green eyes one night. The next day, his little sister, Emma, displayed the same eerie green glow. Ryan couldn't shake the feeling that something was terribly wrong.
Ryan approached his mother to discuss his concerns, but she brushed it off as a trick of the light. Determined to find answers, he decided to talk to his best friend, Jake. Jake was skeptical at first.
Ryan started to notice more strange behaviors among people around him. His classmates seemed to move in unison, and even his teacher's eyes glowed during a projector malfunction.
Ryan tried to confront his mother again, but she avoided the topic. Feeling desperate, he began to isolate himself, unsure whom to trust. The weight of the secret felt unbearable.
One night, Ryan overheard a conversation between his mom and a neighbor. They were discussing 'synth maintenance'. Fear gripped him as he realized everyone he loved might be synthetic.
Ryan felt overwhelmed and considered giving up on uncovering the truth. " - Maybe I should just accept things as they are," he muttered to himself.
As Ryan walked the quiet streets, he encountered Mr. Thompson, the retired engineer. " - You look troubled, Ryan," Mr. Thompson said. " - Sometimes, understanding comes from within, not from answers."
Inspired by Mr. Thompson's words, Ryan decided to approach his family with an open heart. " - I don't care if you're different," he told them. " - I love you for who you are."
