Blue Dog

In "Blue Dog," the second installment of the Young Blood Trilogy, a group of postmillennial survivors confronts the grim realities of their existence on Luna Farm and its sister enclaves. Initially drawn by the promise of paradise and youth-preserving plasma donations, they soon find themselves trapped in a nightmarish captivity. When Billy Cantor and his defiant crew attempt to rescue their fellow captives, they encounter a mysterious young man who may hold the key to their freedom—or their destruction. This chilling short story offers a darkly humorous critique of youthful aspirations versus harsh truths.
