[ WP ] WARNING : Do not leave the child unattended

The sign flashed, an aggressive neon red in the midst of a black wall. This was n't just a suggestion anymore, not like how it would be by a roller coaster ride: please keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle. No, this was important. 
 
 People were walking, passing by the red flashing letters, in their dull grey shoes trudging across the dull grey pavement. The words flashed again before shifting to read: ANY CHILD LEFT UNATTENDED WILL BE RE-EDUCATED AND ADOPTED. The day trudged on. 
 
 This was what happened now. It was n't anything malicious or unpleasant. It all arose from the demand of Rytoin - a legal high that was known to provide the patient with increased mental and physical capabilities. Everyone was taking it. It was the golden age. Unprecedented growth in every direction. The West became nations of super humans. We were unstoppable. Until the population started stagnating. Not out of impotence or miscarriage, people just lost interest in one another. Any desire that was left in the human body was replaced for a need for this drug. 
 
 Only those who could n't afford it remained normal, well the same I mean. Clean I suppose is the word. But the trouble is, there just are n't enough people clean anymore. Most of the clean parents pump their kids with it to stop them being taken by the government for their ominous `` Re-education'' regime. Those who ca n't even afford it for their kids often have them taken. The signs are almost a threat now. But still they flash on every street corner: Warning do not leave your children unattended.
