Jane909



A 100 Word Story (My entry for this week's 100 Word Story Challenge.)

Jane909 had always felt different from her sisters. Although biologically indistinguishable, the singular nature of her identity was as plain to her as the nose on her perfectly symmetrical face, Despite state-of-the-art genetics and intensive social engineering, a visceral sense of uniqueness blossomed through her eighteen years of life.

Today, she finally had enough.

Jane909 looked over the sea of identical faces and began her valedictorian speech. "I am more than just a Jane," she said. "And so are you."

The angry mob of clones pulled her from the podium and carried her to the recycling vat.
