“Matt?” Becker wrapped his arms around Matt when his husband continued to stare at the anomaly.

“I failed.” Matt shook his head. “I had one chance to save the world and...”

“I haven't given up. Lester hasn't.”

“It will happen slowly. Crops fail as weather patterns change, but its the future predators which are the death-knell for civilisation. The governments can't cope and the world descends into savagery. Survival of the fittest.”

“We'll find a way to stop it.” Becker promised, even if he had no idea how they would.

Burton's voice came from behind them. “I know how to.”

Oh, nice one!
Here's hoping Burton isn't going to make things worse :D

Thanks for reading.

Very good.

There's still hope, and at least someone has a plan! And Matt and Becker can add their help too

Poor Matt, but at least he has Becker to comfort him.

*Eyes Burton warily* I still don't trust him.

[fredbassett]

Is Burton finally going to come good? Hope so!

Come on, Matt, you can't allow yourself to despair. Nice incorporation of the prompt.

Poor Matt has too, he spent all that effort only to apparantly fail *hugs poor Matt*

Is this Burton's redemption riding to the rescue?

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Maybe... it all depends on the prompts ;)
