The year; 2037. The setting; Earth. The introduction of the holopads had a bigger impact on society than anyone would’ve even guessed or that anyone even acknowledges to this day, taking the commercials and media coverage as an annoying norm. Like anything in our culture though, they started to shape how people thought, how they react, and what they felt pressured to buy, slowly ushering the United States into a more futuristic, sci-fi environment. Architecture took on a more sleek, angled approach, while roads and highways were lifted from the scum and dirt of the homeless. The military started to invest is robotics and cybernetics, while people got eye implants to relieve their blindness, buying small robot dogs for pets instead of the faithful companion we had kept at our side for decades.

The world as we knew it started to become more fantastical. The iPad turned into the iScreen, a small portable holopad that was harder to break due to the light technology it used for it’s screen, touchscreens becoming commonplace in restaurants, saloons, repair shops, and furniture stores. Those who couldn’t keep up with the times fell back into poverty, littering downtown's with the jobless and forgotten, crime that was left unchecked due to either apathy or under-manning.

Society is filled with mystery once more and no one knows what comes next. Who will you be?
