No, no not always. I know it wasn't like this forever. It couldn't have been, mom told me so.
We call this place "The Underground", and this is our home. We have always lived here, about a hundred or so of us, under the care of the Chief. He told us we were safe.
The sun is always bright, the birds are always singing, and the plants grow big and strong! And in this perfect little world, there is only one rule.
Do not leave the premise.
Jeffery told me not to tell anyone, but his father didn't listen to that rule. He came back, thank goodness, but not for long. He went to underground square to tell everyone about what he say. I'll never forget that day.
"It's just a wall! A big, electric wall! You touch it, it's like a force field! And the sun, that's fake too! Everything surrounding the Underground is a projection!"
Jeffery's dad didn't come back. He left on a business trip to some weird other place. We don't know what it's called though. We can't go there either. But the world, it's been shaking. People are going missing more and more. And people are starting to think this is all fake.
Kate, my friend, and a few kids from school left the premise too. They came back, they told me there is a whole new world out there. That we are part of a game. A game we need to escape from.
So that's where I'm going. Mom, dad, I love you both, and if I don't see you again, please, listen to me. Listen, and run.
Love,
Keelan

Basically, a population of around 100+ are stationed underground, with a sphere shaped 'television' around them, projecting a picture of the sky, a sun, and rolling fields outside their town. However, if anyone tries to leave, they 'dissapear' and are taken away. However, there is a world above, exactly like Earth, however, no humans at all. People like Kate and Jeffery's dad have seen it, but the Chief has killed them.
The Chief is growing more power hungry, and abusing his position.
Do not leave the premise.
