The Quintessential Act

By Christopher J Clarke

Muriel had the chance of a lifetime and had spent a year planning for it. She was going to see something for the last time ever on Planet Earth and even though it was desperately sad, everyone on the Planet was jealous of her.

 

What had humans done, again. Muriel thought that humans were a virus on the planet, killing and devouring as they went and what she was about to see was proof of that.

 

A short story about the horrors of what we are doing to this world.
