Simultaneously as the black hole continued to grow without end, sirens could be heard going off all over the country as soldiers and police officers, scrambled to escort citizens to underground bunkers.
Protected by barriers strong enough to deflect a Nuclear Astro Bomb, however, things were not going as planned as people created more problems than the goddamn black hole.
Leading to numerous casualties and fights breaking out all over Japan as people ransacked stores, raped the innocent, jumped off builds, etc.
"Wait… fuck! I am still a virgin! No, this cannot be how I die!" Someone shouted frantically as they broke down and tried to make sense of how this could have happened.
"Damn, so the bible was true after all, huh? Well, it was fun while it lasted, am I right..." A young Caucasian teen muttered with a smile as he reached into his bookbag and took out an AK-47. Before going on a killing spree while laughing hysterically as they reaped one life after another without care as if this was a Call of Duty lobby.

Meanwhile, as that went on a pastor could be seen walking around with a bible in hand as they preached the holy gospel, "People, people calm down, I know you are all scared! But it is finally time for us to rejoice in his Holy Name, Jehovah!"
"What Jehovah… nigga, we about to die?! Don't you see that big ass black hole in the sky?!" A kid shouted with confusion as now was not the time to be preaching brother.
"I heard that God isn't even real and that we're actually inside a matrix created by Aliens like in the movies." Someone near the kid commented as he pushed up his glasses before taking a selfie, which had the caption #LiveFastDieYoung.
Yet, while half of Japan became a scene out of Mad Max, the other side was oddly peaceful as people took this time out to just appreciate their lives and the memories they made with loved ones. As they watched the world around them get dismantled piece by piece like Legos before vanishing into the darkness.
"Sigh, shouldn't the country's black hole disruptors already be activated by now? Since this barrier isn't going to last forever," A young man muttered to himself after taking a glance at the barrier's stability. Before returning his gaze to Channel 89 news as he sat on top of the bunker,
[Breaking News! Recently a black hole has been discovered to have mysteriously appeared above Tokyo! While scientists are currently unaware of what might have led to its appearance, you can rest assured that officials and scientists alike are trying their best to get everything under control. As the built-in Black Hole Disruptors gradually power up; so for the time being please make your way towards the nearest underground bunkers and may god protect Japan, Channel 89 Signing Out!]
"Tsk, just say you are waiting for a cultivator to come to save the day as y'all don't want to waste your precious money on peasants like us!" The young man grumbled as he shook his head in disbelief at how little these so-called, "officials and scientists" genuinely cared about the people whom they worked to serve.
"Probably in a few minutes as it takes a while for new technology to kick in nowadays." Someone said out of nowhere as she sat next to the young man to watch this once-in-a-lifetime event.
"But I thought they were supposed to work instantly ever since that new installment last month," The young man replied as he glanced at the elderly lady curiously, wondering just when she appeared beside him.
"Well, who knows… as in the end, we can only hope for the best," The elderly lady sighed as she got up and dusted off her clothes.
"I guess so," The young man muttered as he turned off his phone, closed his eyes, and lay down on the roof of the bunker to wait for his death.
"Hmm… so you're just going to give up like that? I thought young men were supposed to be hot-blooded warriors who would not falter even in the face of death." The elderly lady asked as she gazed at the young man who began to fall asleep.
"Haha, while honestly sad… yes because I'm just a mortal at the end of the day, so if God chooses today to be my last day, it's my last day. Plus, even if I had such power, why would I use it to save a country that only sees me as another pawn they could control." He replied as he opened one of his eyes and glanced at the sky with contentment.
"While true, it doesn't necessarily have to be like that, young man; so, if you were given the opportunity to save the world would you, or is preserving your life more important than the lives of millions?" She asked with curiosity as her eyes glowed with wonder and fascination, 'So just what will be your choice as time ticks away, eating away at your opportunity for greatness?'
"Good question, however, 'with great power comes great responsibly,' so I guess maybe in the end I would choose to stop such a catastrophe after all." The young smiled as he remembered a quote from a movie, he used to watch as a kid growing up.
Which led the elderly lady to burst into a fit of laughter once she heard his response as she concomitantly transformed into a drop-dead beauty from her earlier appearance. Who now was wearing a simple loose gown that was made from an assortment of flowers.
Along with a mask that concealed her face which was rumored to be made from the souls of a thousand people. Hence the reason why most call her the Thousand Masked Empress, yet that is only one of her identities as the public knows her as the patriarch of the Shinobi Clan, Eveline Clarity. A cold-hearted killer who could bring an Empire to its knees with just a wave of her hand.
"While you may not have the power to change your destiny, young man that doesn't mean others don't. So would you like to become my disciple, um…" Eveline asked before realizing she did not know the kid's name.
"…" The young man could only say as he was utterly shocked a cultivator would ever fancy him.
"Sigh, I guess the rumors were true… beauties truly aren't fit to recruit disciples," Eveline muttered as she shook her head before flying toward the black hole.
Leaving the poor young man confused and clueless on how to proceed as he still could not fathom how he attracted the attention of a cultivator. A godlike being who could care less about the lives of morals such as him.
Yet, while crazy to believe Eveline was a bit interested in the young man's future if he became a cultivator. However, that is beside the point as right now he could only watch in disbelief as she bypassed the barrier and flew toward the black hole.
Before using her hand to knock the sky three times causing everything to stop for a minute or so. Before a force engulfed the entire city affecting everything and everyone outside the barriers scattered across the city.
Which caused time to rewind as everything except the lives sadly lost today in this tragic moment. Returned to how it was before the black hole existed yet while mind-blowing it did not seem to affect the spinning vortex of matter high in the firmament.
