Matt's Quest
This is the story of an average person in extraordinary circumstances. Matt Stone is a socially awkward 20-something who never achieved much. He's living a dead end life with a dead end career, but it's his life. As Matt will find out on February 21, 1984, his town is at the epicenter of a direct atomic attack. Jamestown, New York is hit by a Soviet nuclear weapon, quite by accident. He will survive it, perhaps, in the fallout shelter he has constructed for himself under his apartment. The world afterward will be wiped clean, but it is not as simple as his post apocalyptic comic books and movies make it seem. Who will survive and what will he do in this brave new world?
This is a collaborative effort. You may write a new passage or add onto a previous passage if it is open to further completion. The development of the story is at your discretion. If there are no takers, I will continue the story at my discretion.
