An Introduction
In the end it wasn’t the sun, it was us that destroyed the earth.
Our home did not burn up in flames nor did it drown. It died of a broken heart; though you may argue my romanticism of the events of your future it is my core belief that hate is how the earth met its end. As the earth grew hotter we grew colder. Our hearts cold like the snow that never fell. Love became a story told through quite breaths. A story of the past which few remembered well enough to tell. The heat caused sickness to spread, like a forest alit with flames. Every day more died, and we grew more divided. We hated so strongly, so we did as we had always done before when we were faced with an insurmountable problem. We went to war. Allies were scarcely found. We fought for whatever we could, whatever was left. We fought to survive.
And then it came out of the darkness of our dying age, hope. They called it a new beginning, New Earth. How could we have known how it would all end?

I like this story. It really put in some great perspective that is totally new but original.

There are some grammatical errors though.

I think that was supposed to be quiet, not quite.

Other than that, the intro was great and I can't wait for more!
