High-Rise A.D. 2500

 So it goes that in the distant future, there rose a towering skyscraper that reached for the heavens like a middle finger to the gods themselves. This high-rise was a thing of wonder, a place where only the most elite of society could call home.

From the outside, it gleamed like a diamond, its windows reflecting the sun's rays like a thousand mirrors. It stood tall and proud, a symbol of mankind's hubris and opulence. But inside, oh my, inside was a different story altogether.

The lobby was a grandiose display of wealth and extravagance, with towering marble pillars and a fountain that spewed water like a volcanic eruption. The floors were made of the finest Italian marble, and the walls were adorned with art from the world's most famous artists.

The elevators were like something out of science fiction, whizzing up and down the building at incredible speeds. Each one was a small room in itself, with plush leather seats and the latest entertainment systems.

As you stepped out of the elevator, you were greeted with a hallway that seemed to stretch on forever, lined with doors that led to the most luxurious apartments imaginable. Each one was a palace in its own right, with sweeping views of the city below and every modern convenience you could imagine.

The kitchens were fitted with the latest technology, able to cook up any dish you desired in seconds. The bedrooms were like something out of a fairy tale, with plush king-sized beds and silk sheets that felt like a dream. And the bathrooms, oh my, the bathrooms were like something from another planet, with jacuzzi tubs that could fit a dozen people and showers that could clean you in seconds.

But as with all things in life, there was a price to pay. Only the super-rich could afford to live in this luxury high-rise, and those who did lived in a bubble, shielded from the struggles of the outside world. They were like gods, living in a world of their own creation, and like all gods, they would eventually fall.
