Description:

“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” Romans 10:17 King James Version (KJV)

It's the year 2163, two hundred years after the establishment of Kennedy Academy. For many years the school was highly recommended to all the public as the best Christian school a child could attend. But as time grew on, the school brought it's standards to a higher, yet lower, degree. No longer is Christianity the main priority of the school.
My name is Faith and I'm a student in Group D at Kennedy Academy. When I was enrolled at the age of six, the school seemed to have changed from the time my mother was a student. There weren't many students in Group D, since we were, as the school board put it, "peasants with no funds". But it was much more than that. There weren't many students because they were always being taken away by the age of eleven. No one knows whether it is true or not whether they were still alive, but none of the students were ever heard or seen again. I alone have been lucky to survive this dreaded fate. God has been faithful to me. My best friend, Lukan, and brothers; Jeremiah, Michael, Matthew, Mark and Luke; they are no more, but I am determined to live on.
