Earth. a blue thing that rotates slowly like a snail, stars that were numerable and were shining with glaring light. At a million distance away a strange large object was heading to Earth, the BossEarth company was alarmed and they use advanced tools to identify the strange object but were disappointed by the results.
The strange large object was traveling at a great speed that it would take one year for it to reach the earth, the BossEarth company descended into chaos and some of the members even leaked the information thus causing the president in all country to insist that BossEarth must explain what is going on.
In a mall, a lot of people were walking and some have fun while eating while others were laughing with their friends, the atmosphere was relaxing when the tv of the malls suddenly turned off, the cellphones of the people also turned off. The people and the staff were bewildered by this phenomenon, are the tv and cellphones planning to revolt? that seemed impossible because the AI project was not even completed let alone the gadgets planning to revolt, so what is going on here can someone explain? I'm watching dog and chicken show when my phone turned off!
Soon the answer came and it brought a strange atmosphere, the tv was the first to take action, it turned on and there was a large word in the middle, BossEarth will explain the strange object that was captured by an advanced searching tool. It was simple yet it seemed also complicated, first what is that strange object? it is too abrupt that many people thought it was a prank.
Soon the cellphones turned on and one of the people that was watching dog and chicken show was annoyed, on their screen was the same words shown it the tv. Then the screen changed and a person was standing, behind him was a tv that was turned off, the man was wearing a white coat and his eyes were deep, he stared at them and started to open his mouth.

"BossEarth finally met a boss, I will keep this short because I have a launch waiting for me, in short, a strange object was heading to earth and according to our data it will reach the earth in a year, a theory has been brewing and one of the passable theory was that the strange object belongs to an advanced species, it means it may be a monster and once it reaches the earth all of us are doomed. That's all goodbye!"
"Eh?"
"Is that guy explaining or cursing at us?
"How scary!"
The screen then turned off as well the tv, it came back to its previous condition but a strange atmosphere enveloped the people. Some people checked the news and saw that they were also saying that it was true there were even photos of that strange object but because it is too far away it looked like a tiny ball.
Boom!
Chaos descends into the mall and people screamed, the day has finally come when the earth will face its enemy, they thought the end of the world would be long maybe they would not live long enough to witness that but now a sudden ending of the world came, one could imagine the fear that was beating at their minds!
. . .
Night came and all the people around the world find it hard to sleep, all the news and headlines were about that strange object, in one year the world will end this statement caused hundreds of people to commit suicide, and the crime rates at the villages, towns, city have been reduced to zero! even the bad guys were depressed, and the churches gained massive people because faith can help in these kinds of situations.
The night was destined to be long but the day will still arrive and soon the sun came and its warm light enveloped the houses. People all had black eyes but in their eyes, one could see hope, a miracle arrives!

. . .
Deep Sky Village, one of the small villages and people here is few compared to the cities. Even then they knew something bad happened, but early in the morning all of the people here young and old, boy and girl leave the village with hope in their eyes.
In Deep Sky Village all of the people were now gone, leaving the place empty and devoid of life. Going deeper one will see a house that had broken windows and the house suffered wounds due to the power of time. It's deserved to be called a haunted house!
In the broken window one would see a man, wait why is there a man there? is he crazy!? But there was really a man however the man's skin was strange, from afar it was like a white light but when one looked closer they would be shocked to their core.
The man was transparent, one could see the walls behind him and it was old. Marcus looked at the trees standing not far away from his house, "It's been a long time, I died last year, and now..." Marcus looked at his hands which were transparent he could see the floors through them, at first he was shocked! why is he still alive? but then he saw people can't see him and his body can pass through walls!
Then why I can stand on the floor? this... Marcus didn't bother with it, he knew he was a ghost! he didn't believe in God so he assumed the god didn't place a spot for him in heaven.
"Haiz, another boring day. No one visits my house and what is worse I can't get out."
Marcus's face broke into a bitter face, what a pitiful man I should believe in God so that I will enjoy the benefits in heaven, actually even in hell he would agree to be the first to go there. Boredom is a poison!
Marcus looked at the tree and put his hands behind his back, maybe in a few years I would dissipate and all will be like a dream. I really want that to happen but what if a hundred years passed and I am still here!
Oh my gosh...
Marcus shivered at that thought, he shakes his head and felt like he was now becoming a zen master, still and calm. While he was thinking about his dark future an interface screen appeared in front of him.
