Chapter 1 The Prologue
Earth, a planet inhabited by an enormous number of living beings, of which the most spread out are us, the humans. People were walking around, going to their jobs, and just doing their everyday routine, fully unaware that everything is about to change...
A couple of light-years away from Earth, a strange sight could be seen as a gray cloud appeared, it seemed misplaced, everything that came near it just disappeared and never returned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWithin the gray could, 4 shadows could be seen sitting, yes, they were sitting in that gray cloud that could seemingly engulf everything as if they were in their own backyard.
"So it's finally time huh?" The largest shadow asked.
"Yes, those humans have lived in peace for a long time, developing their technology, enjoying themselves, it's time for them to grow, to learn that the universe is not a nice place". Answered another.
"But do we really need to do it like this, I still believe it's too cruel, changing their lives in this manner". A shadow said in a feminine voice.
"You are too kind-hearted Eiona, why do you concern yourself with these ants, they have been chosen decades ago, you know very well that we cannot do things as we used to, the earthlings will be one of the planets that will go through the new selection and that is final ." Said the last shadow with a voice full of arrogance.
"I still believe it's too cruel, we have never done this before, every planet had a different trial and even though they were all cruel this is still..."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Enough!!" The 4th shadow shouted out.
"Earth falls under my jurisdiction, and this is my decision, the Earthlings will either pass this game or they will die and forever be forgotten, you know that this is how it must be, do not make things even more difficult for us!"
"Y-Yes, overseer". Said the lady shadow reluctantly.
"Now, let us start". The shadow said in a serious voice as he waved his hand over at the planet
An event that will change Earth and humankind forever was decided in such a way, without a shred of mercy. The shadows simply sat and watched the planet as a formless mass of power started moving toward it.
