[ WP ] The year is 22,123 , and the last humans make their way through the radioactive wastelands of Earth , to reach the only safe place they know of - Pripyat .

I could smell it, the radioactive gas was seeping through my hazmat and also many others behind me. However, we could n't let a bit of gas get in our way of, well. Paradise. 
 
 I was leading a unit of 15 men and women that played a key part in getting to Pripyat. Each of these people were classed as'super-intelligent' however as I looked back I only saw the lowly remains of broken and tortured souls. It was their first time outside of the vault after all. 
 
 The vault, our home. Had been standing strong since 15,263. They knew it would n't be permanent, so it was built to last 5,000 years but, we pushed it much more than that unfortunately. We were meant to evacuate in 20,263 however we got reports from our scouts that Pripyat was unsafe still. I only wish I was around in those times. They did n't have to worry about evacuating because they knew that by the time evacuation was completely necessary they'd all be dead anyway. Lucky bastards. 
 
 It was cold too, the effects of the ice age of 17,467 hindered us in our efforts to make it to Pripyat, though our scouts assured us that Pripyat was a safe haven. A place for mankind to permanently settle, repopulate. So we powered on. 
 
 Eventually. I could see something, getting closer, and closer, and closer. It was a man, running straight at us, without a hazmat suit. As he approached I started getting what we called'tingly ass', heh, do n't worry about that. 
 Anyway, he was sprinting now, screaming something at the top of his lungs but noone could hear him. He was fast as hell though, I'll give him that. 
 He started slowing down at this point but I started to make out what he was saying as he fell to his knees and screamed one last time before falling face first into the snow.. 
 
 `` They lied to us''...

 This was my first ever prompt, hope you liked it! I'm sorry the ending was a little rushed but I got ta be somewhere in 30 minutes and I have n't even started getting ready hehe. I'd be more than happy if you left criticism for me in response, thank you!
