It is now the year 2007. It's been five years since the disaster. People got very sick and died. All the grown ups died. Seven children have survived in the small town in Florida. They don't remember much from the Before Time. They don't even remember their names. They now are known by their role in the group. The three teenagers take charge of the group. Teacher is in charge of The Book. All knowledge is kept in The Book. She adds to The Book as she learns new things. Mommy takes care of the little ones. She feeds them as best she can and tries to keep them clean. Hunter is the oldest boy and his job is to search the town for food and other provisions needed by The Family. The rest of the children are too young to remember what life was like in the Before Time. Things are getting worse for the children. The town is running out of food for them. Living on applesauce and canned beets is becoming unbearable. Hunter decides he must go to other towns in search of food. But, before he can leave, an unexpected visitor changes their whole outlook on life. When a teenager named Angerman joins the group, he decides they should go to Washington to find the President. He will know what is going on. He will help them. He will tell them if they have to worry about the illness coming again. If they have to worry about the Fire-Us that wiped out all the First Mommies and First Daddies.
