KATIE UNDERWOOD

CHAPTER 1: LEAVING SUPLEE

1

The town of Suplee had never been so loud.

Katie Underwood, the only girl under 20 in the town, was engaged to be married to Robert Houslin of Grey City, the major
city of the state of Greyland.

"Katie is too good for a man of the city," Jacob, the town restaurant owner said. "They do things too fast and without thought of
other people."

Katie’s mind was not changed. She and Robert had dated through high school, and he could not be any better a boyfriend.

"If Suplee does not approve of Robert, I do not approve of Suplee," she told her father.

"Katie," he said with empathy, "if you ever wish to leave town, I will give you enough money that you and Robert will have no
trouble skipping to the next town."

Not sure if she should be happy for Robert or sad for her parents, Katie said, "Thank you, but I’m happy anywhere with Robert."

Katie and Robert went into the woods outside of town, like they did every night neither of them had chores at Jacob’s.

"How can we be together, forever?" Robert asked Katie.

"That’s a silly question, we’re in love and nothing will ever make that not so."

"What if I fell off a cliff, or ate a bad mushroom, or caught a disease that we have no cure for?" Robert said.

"I’ve never thought of that. I need you forever, not for a century, or even a million years, but until the world is no longer here and longer."

"That’s why I asked. They say, with the change in our nature science made a hundred years ago, we will never die, but some people
still do. The world is not a perfect place."

Katie said, "What can we do?"

Robert said, "I’ll do anything, but we have to leave Suplee, maybe even Greyland."

They walked back to Katie’s house and went to the library the next day to research the history of immortality. The national government
censored much of the information about immortality, so they looked at books about folklore.

"Perfect", Katie said, Myths About The Outside World and Immortality in Greyland, 4th Century. The book was old and worn, probably printed
at least 100 years ago. "Now you find one."

Robert pulled out a book called If We Were Immortal, a newer book, probably printed in the past decade. Katie picked up Robert’s book and
found this:

Science has yet to explain why there are no records of people before the year 0, but one far-off theory is that until that year we had contact with
the other continents and the information was censored. We may never know until someone sails to these continents and returns.

It was common knowledge in Greyland that there are no continents outside the one people live on. The ocean surrounding the main continent was
so inhospitable that any continent or island off the shore would be impossible for anything to live on.

Katie and Robert were the type to question what is known as fact, and leaving the snobby town of Suplee was strong in their wills. They had
enough money to drive to Grey City, though gas prices had got high, and they would have little money to do much more than eat.

3

Katie and Robert left the town secretly, saying they were seeing a concert in Grey City and afterward a Newtown musical across the border in
Walnuton.

Myths About The Outside World and Immortality in Greyland, 4th Century had a part about an island off the shore of Greyland, west of
Grey City that didn’t appear on any maps. After arriving in Grey City, Katie and Robert hitchhiked across the coastal hills and found themselves
on a beach.

The clouds that covered the coast of Greyland made way for the Sun after a quick shower, and a small boat landed near where Katie and Robert
sat kissing.

"Did we call you?" Robert joked to the sailor.

"No, but we knew you were coming. My people patrol the woods between Grey City and our island so we can explain to them about the other
continents."

"You’re kidding," Katie said. Robert gave the sailor a skeptical look.

"Our island is the only island off the ocean coast of your part of the world. We live in between your world, the Modern world, and the rest of the world,
the Romantic world, but our island is considered to be in the Romantic world."

"We consider ourselves students and the island a school for learning about the outside world and more importantly, the land where we can live in peace
forever is."

"Our island is visited by all the people of the world, the elves, the dwarves, witches, the people of your kind who live outside of your world. Only one nation
does not visit our island – the people who live in the land we are trying to find."

"Why not?" Katie asked.

"If you live there, you won’t want to leave. The joy of being in a land that wonderful is so great, that any other place would seem like Hell." the sailor said.

"You can sail with me to the island, but you might not survive the trip, and you can never come back to Greyland or any other place

Hmm to be honest, I didn’t read past the first 2 paragraphs, it didn’t ketch my attention and there were a few minor grammar errors that I found confusing. This could throw off a publisher, so fix ‘em up eh? And you’ve got a piece of art in the making!

Good Luck!

I think it will be mostly upper middle class and rich. But there will be several clusters of black and immigrant communities.

I think the average 3 bedroom home in Nassau and Western Suffolk County will cost $700,000.

Sunrise Highway and the LIE will be more crowded than they alraedy are. I think homes will be jammed up on to properties like in Queens.

What do you think it will be like?

I think areas like Wyandanch, Bellport, Roosevelt, Hempstead and other similar communities will have mini-mansions. There will be little open space.
I think western Suffolk and Nassau will start to resmeble Queens, well, atleast the western parts.
Excuse me, young man, where are your parents?

Shouldn’t you be being supervised?

The North Shore will stay very rich, the South Shore will be rich. The middle of the Island will be a slum. The worst of it will be in Nassau. The middle of Suffolk will be white trash.

The middle class will be leaving LI in greater numbers than they are now.

Ok im in my mid 20’s , most people my age still live at home with their parents on long island at this age as nobody can afford anything! An apartment on average is about 1200-1600 and thats just for a basement apartments! thats how expensive it is here. Unless u are wealthy or middle aged (when people bought there homes years ago when things were cheaper) everyone my generation seems to be moving off the island….
I am thinking about moving to VA in a few years . I was just wondering if anyone or knew of anyone who moved off long island because of cost of living? some advise would be good thanks

If you are single and have employable skills you can move anywhere your heart desires. You don’t have to get anyone’s permission to do so. Think of the possibilities! With the exception of the large coastal cities almost everywhere is less expensive than Long Island.

PANGALENGAN, Indonesia (Reuters) – The death toll from an earthquake that struck Indonesia, shattering rural homes and forcing terrified city residents into the street, stood at 42 and was likely to rise, the government said on Thursday.

The 7.0 magnitude quake shook buildings in the capital Jakarta on Wednesday afternoon and flattened homes in villages closer to the epicentre in West Java.

Reuters reporters saw many damaged houses as well as makeshift tents and shelters on the streets and in fields.

"They have taken refuge not only because their houses were ruined, but also because they fear there will be aftershocks," said local official Obar Sobarna. About 5,000 people were taking refuge in the area, he added.

At least 42 people were killed and more than 300 people injured, the government said. Officials said about 1,300 houses were damaged, although local media put the number at 3,500.

Another 42 were missing, presumed dead, after the quake triggered a landslide in the district of Cianjur, about 60 miles south of Jakarta, said Priyadi Kardono, spokesman for the National Disaster Mitigation Agency.

Kardono said the death toll may rise sharply as scores of houses and offices had collapsed or suffered severe damage. Some areas near the epicentre could not be contacted for several hours.

"Communications with the coastal areas were completely cut, so we don’t know the conditions there," Kardono told Reuters.

"It’s possible the death toll could grow higher."

NEIGHBOURS OFFER HELP

Asian states offered to help deal with the quake aftermath.

"We’ve said to the Indonesian authorities we will work with them in terms of any assistance that we can provide," Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd told national radio.

Yukio Hatoyama, Japan’s next prime minister after his Democratic Party of Japan’s landslide election victory, said his government would provide help "regardless of any request.

"We need to make sure there are no delays in providing aid that we would normally be able to provide because of a policy vacuum."

The health ministry said it was sending medical teams to affected areas in West Java. State news agency Antara reported villagers were clearing rubble from collapsed buildings to try to find survivors and bodies.

Indonesia’s 17,000 islands are scattered along a belt of volcanic and seismic activity known as the Pacific "ring of fire," one of the most quake-prone places on earth.

More than 170,000 Indonesians were killed or listed missing after a 9.15 magnitude earthquake off Indonesia’s Aceh province on Sumatra triggered a tsunami in December 2004. A total of 230,000 people died in Indian Ocean countries.

Indonesia’s seismology agency put the magnitude of Wednesday’s quake at 7.3 with the epicentre 142 km (88 miles) southwest of Tasikmalaya, in West Java.

"Many houses are flattened to the ground," said Edi Sapuan in Margamukti village, near Tasikmalaya. "Only the wooden houses remain standing. Many villagers are injured, covered in blood."

"We ran as soon as the quake hit. Then five minutes later my house collapsed."

The quake was felt as far away as Surabaya, Indonesia’s second city, 500 km (300 miles) northeast of Tasikmalaya, and on the resort island of Bali, about 700 km (420 miles) to the east.

At least 38 people were injured in Jakarta, the health ministry said. Buildings shook and residents said thousands of people poured into the streets from office and apartment blocks.

"The chandelier started moving and it started shaking really strong," said Victor Chan, who lives in a 34th floor flat. "It lasted quite long. I was really scared and rushed downstairs."
