She
doesn't feel any different. But maybe that's because she doesn't
know how she is supposed to feel. Of course her parents have told
her that she was a test tube baby but she never thought too much about
who her biological parents may have been. But now the news has broken.
LifeForce has told the media that they have successfully created human
clones. Taylor is assured her identity will be protected and only
a few people know about her. When you live in an orangutan sanctuary,
there aren't too many people around to tell anyway. As she tries
to come to grips with the new knowledge, forces outside the compound compel
her to put others well-being before her own. The rebel army has taken
over the area and burned the sanctuary to the ground. Taylor and
her younger brother were exploring a cave at the time and escaped the soldiers.
Now, Taylor, Donny and an old ape named Uncle set off to find help and
hope to find their parents alive somewhere. |
