Chapter 1: Announcement

Need to reproduce. Need to increase human population. Need one male to be chosen for a job that will make him go down as the Savior. Who will be the savior? The one person who will give new generation existence and t make the world truly a better place. The government decides to set up this project in order to figure out who was going to be the hero to save humanity. All they need was a health male individual. Lucky there are few left in the damaged world. All they have to do was to be ready for the time to become the Savior.

Everyone in the destructive and fractured world watch their television screen as an old host was rolling many plastic balls in a large golden cylinder can. This old man is a talk show host just being one of the few entertainments for people to watch for the dying world. He was in his mid-60's with gray hair, a golden glitter suit and bow tie, and behind him is the map of the world a bit torn and burn.

"Gentlemen around the world, only one will get a chance to live in paradise. The world you and I know is gone, but we can rebuild! We can repopulate and grow! We will be alive and our new generation will keep our legacy living on!"

The old man stops spinning the can as he look at the camera in front of him. The old man reaches in the can for a while before he grins and pulls out one plastic ball.

"Alright folks, you know my name, James Burn and I have some good news. Our government has decided to have me to announce they have figure out how to populate humanity. We will have the Savior. I will open this sucker." The old cracks the ball as he pull out a small piece of paper. He looks at the people and smiled at the camera. "We have a winner. The Savior is..."

BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP

In his room, Lincoln Loud slumber was disturbed by the ray of sunlight shining on his face and the noise of his alarm clock. He tosses and turns before opening his eyes and reaching for the shut button to quiet the clock. It was shut off and he look up seeing the ceiling still not fix after what happened 3 years ago.

He sat up and stretches his arms. His body was stain with dirty marks with his hair messy. The world may not be in great condition, but it won't sure stop the man with the plan from spending time on Earth with his family as much as he can. He looks around his arm to see garbage lying around with some burn marks on the walls.

"Hello everyone, I'm Lincoln Loud. I'm a fifteen year old boy who has 10 sisters and 2 loving parents. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that the world is in fallout from the nuclear warfare of 2020. Don't worry, the radiation is off but we have limit of resources. But still I love my family and that is what matters to me the most. I hope the government is trying to clean the Earth and to cure most people from the radiation-"

His door knocks as the boy was interrupted.

"Come in," he spoke as he walk to his broken wall wear he wear his torn jeans and orange polo shirt.

His parents, Rita and Lynn St. Loud step in their only son's room as they see the boy humming while putting his clothes on.

"Good morning mom and dad," he says as he walks to them and hug them.

"Good morning Lincoln," the two parents said as they hug back their son. "How are you doing son."

"I'm doing great," Lincoln respond cheerfully.

"Son, we need to talk," spoke Lynn Sr.

The boy looks at his mother and his father as they look at each other unsure what to say. They walk to his bed and sat down. Lincoln sat down with them.

"Honey, do you remember that time we had you sign a paper?" Rita asked.

"I do mom, the one where I was going to a new school?" he replied with a smile.

"Well... That paper wasn't about a new school."

"Wait... what?"

"Son, do you remember a contest that was called the Savior," Lynn Dr. asked. "The one with the talk show host James Burn where the government announce this was going to help humanity."

"I do, it was what people say will help human population grow."

"Yes, that's the one. The one the government needs someone who can... we'll be the main purpose for human population growth... And we are here to say... You won."

Lincoln look at his father confused before he got off the bed and look at them.

"I'm the Savior?" he asked to check if his mind wasn't play tricks on him.

"Yes you are sweetie; you were chosen to be the Savior."

It was silence with Lincoln looking at himself in the cracked mirror. He rubs his hands through his hair and look back at his parents.

"Why me?"

"Pardon me?" asked Rita.

"Why am I the Savior? Isn't there someone older and more of a candidate than me."

Both parents look at each other before they approach their son.

"Well son, you were chosen by decision. It doesn't how you look or how young you are. You have a big responsibilities to help the world get back to normal," his dad explained in an authority way. "You are the Savior and you are going to be the hero of humanity."

Lincoln then glances at the torn Ace Savvy poster, seeing himself as the well-known detective superhero. He realizes this was his chance to become the hero he always wanted to be when he first opened his first Ace Savvy comic. He can see himself with a cape and a great role model just like his hero in the panels.

"Okay dad. I understand," he assures them. "Just let me get ready for school."

He walk to his parents and gave them a big warm hug. They hug back with so much joy to see their little man expecting the challenge and responsibilities he would have ahead of him. He opens the door feeling his whole life was going to change.
