{this is really just a description of a story it will take me a while to actually finish it.}
Many people don't realize how many secret cities are all over the world. Trust me, I live in one, and it's not as fun as you may think.
These "closed cities" we live in are classified by our own government. The names and locations of our cities are unknown to the outside world. Our cities appear on no maps, no road signs will direct you to us. Visitors from foreign cities are strictly prohibited.
You don't know us, but we know you. We see all of the wars raging in the world you think only you occupy; we know all of the economies that continually fail of your countries. The thing about our secret cities are: we don't want to live here.
The government of our city doesn't allow us to move away. Citizens who try to sneak out of the city could be arrested, sometimes even shot. We don't want to be here. That's why we need your help.
You don't know what we have to endure. Our government controls our every move. Don't believe me? There are cameras everywhere, and when I say everywhere, I mean everywhere. We have cameras outside our house to eavesdrop on conversations. Any negative remarks about the government caught on the cameras are punishable.
We are told what to eat, how long to sleep, how long we get to use technology, and how long we can use electricity. We are even told who to marry and how many children to have.
They tell us they're doing this for our own good. They're supposed to make us a “perfect generation.” They tell us that they saved us from the outside world. What if we don't want to be perfect? What if we didn't wanted to be saved?
We know you, but you don't know us. We won't get out. We want out. We need you. We're coming. All of us. We're getting out of this torturous place.
Out of context, this is really creepy. Like, it sounds like you've got all theses places that are full of stalkers, and you're their target... "We need you;" "We're coming." Those both make this sound a lot more weird. It's also intriguing. Will these people ever successfully escape their cities? What'll happen if they do? How will the "others" react to the sudden appearance of Lord knows how many people?
