[ WP ] The year is 2170 . The air is no longer safe to breathe , courtesy of hundreds of genetically engineered CRISPR viruses all capable of altering human DNA within seconds . A cult of clean air worshippers decides to venture out into the open and remove all their masks at once

**I already did one but why not another! ** 
 
 We've been in this dome for as long as we could remember. Even our grandparents did n't remember a time outside of dome. Through the years of pollution, the once pristine atmosphere of the dome had become dangerous to breath, almost as toxic as the acidic air outside. A single breath would alter our already fragile DNA, cause our skin to peel off our bodies, make our brains melt and pour from our ears, according to what we'd be taught since grade school. 
 
 Occasionally, news of `` Original Air Cults'' would surface. They were groups of defiant citizens that believed that our government was keeping us in this dome to hide some big secret outside on the other side. Lunatics. There were n't more than a handful of them and we rarely saw them outside of protests where they'd remove their air filter masks and crumble to the ground shortly after. Sometimes they would remove innocent strangers' masks. Most of the time they just handed out flyers. Then they'd get quite for a few months or a year. No one cared. 
 
 Until the day that we all heard them. And then we HAD to care. Some members of the cult had gathered at the base of the dome, near the most populated area of the South side. They wore nothing but their government provided clothing. No filter masks, no yellow plastic suit that the rest of us wore. The cult members had hacked the dome's PA system and were speaking to us. They would be heard, their message would be made clear. We could n't ignore them today. 
 
 `` *Today is The Great Awakening! Today we all become One! *'' Citizens across the state left their homes and looked to the sky, fearing the worst. We did n't know what to expect. All was silent except for the lunatics speaking on the PA system. 
 
 `` *We have attached several bombs to the dome. We are going to be free. Everyone! No longer will we be held under the oppressive thumb of our government! It is safer out there than it is in here and you know it! * At the mention of the word `` bomb'', screams erupted in the streets. Seconds later, the dome walls began to vibrate and the apartment complexes and factories that lined the back walls began to crumble. 
 
 The thick glass walls came down next. Glass shattered around us like the simulated rain we all feared. People outside pressed their filter masks tightly to their faces and screamed. Those inside followed safety procedures and covered their windows and doors. No one, not even the Original Air Cult members knew what they had just done to us.
