When Marie was already in the middle of the street, she raised both her hands and, closing her eyes, remembered her mother's training to be able to recreate.
A projection of the past so she lets her divine energy leave her body and it will begin to travel all over the place.
At that time, the road regained its color and texture before being destroyed. The cars stopped having rust.
While the bones began to grow flesh, the destroyed buildings returned to their old form, making them see in all their splendor.
The whole city, in a few minutes, was seen as a true metropolis again. The only thing Marie did not notice is that when everything was rebuilt, time began to recede.
So when she opened her eyes, she realized that time was rewinding. So she scratched her head and stretched her hands to advance the time of the projection.
When she knew she had reached the last moments of the city, she let the projection stabilize.
The noise of sirens could be heard in the place, all the people in the city who had been leading their lives normally.
They stood for a moment before the tranquility was disturbed when the city's speakers could be heard that nuclear missiles had been detected from Russia.
At that moment, all the people tried to run towards the shelter of the city. Marie, who was already on top of her Humvee, began to drive, following the flow of the population.
This intending to find a refuge where she might find someone alive.
As she drive, she could see all the chaos in the streets, from families sitting in the streets praying, to other people stealing from businesses.
In some places the clashes between assailants and armed people were brutal. The police in the streets only did the best they could to stop the fights.
But it was throwing a drop of water into a forest fire, there was no stopping it.
When Marie arrived at the outskirts of a subway station, she realized that there was a group of soldiers guarding the place, so she could assume that it was the entrance to a shelter.
So she got out of her Humvee and turned it into a little toy car so she could use it later.
When she entered the subway stairs, she could see people crying on the stairs. Others were trying to use their cell phones but they could only do that.
Because there seemed to be no signal, so distress could be seen on their faces.
Marie simply went down the stairs until she reached the entrance to the subway, where the soldiers were organizing all the citizens.
With some curiosity, she passed the military checkpoint and followed all the projections of people through the train station until she reached the platforms where the soldiers lowered the people.
As they were guided through the tunnel, people from other stations were added to the already long line along the way.
After some time, they came to what appeared to be a detour through the tunnel, which led them to a large metal door.
Marie could see that people were entering, so she stopped the projection, causing everything to return to its original form.
At that moment she looked at the closed metal door in front of her, as at the thousands of skeletons on the ground.
With some sadness Marie looked at them and walked towards the metal door, breaking some bones that made a creepy sound.
Upon reaching the door, she used her divine energy, and following Quetzalcoatl's training; she went through the metal door to get to the other side.
When she did, the first thing she could see was hundreds of soldiers pointing their weapons as they stared in horror at the girl who had walked through a door capable of surviving direct nuclear hits.
Looking at this, Marie just moves her head and then scratched her forehead "Hola ..."
The soldiers, who were nervous and scared, began to sweat, so Marie put her hand on her chin.
"Salut, je suis Marie, quelqu'un parle francais"
The soldiers looked at each other and it was then that a woman approached the girl.
"Qu'est-ce que tu es et comment pourrais-tu franchir cette porte"
Marie smiled innocently "I am a goddess who came to this place after suffering a misfortune in my universe."
At that moment Marie's face showed some sadness "Unfortunately I have no way to get home, so I was wandering in my Humvee all day.
Looking for some sign of life until I found this city called Chicago. After that, all I did was create a projection to see where there could be people. "
The woman who had her weapon relaxed her guard, so she lowered her weapon "You, were you the one who caused that illusion?"
Marie nodded and stretching her hand, she created a projection of the place where the door seemed open as people entered the shelter.
It was then that the woman dropped her gun when she looked at a young couple holding a baby.
The woman, who could not see her parents alive, recognized from a photo that it was them.
The couple who were caring for their baby looked at a soldier.
"Excuse me, you know where the infirmary is, our daughter has a fever and we seem to have the same problem."
The soldier nodded and guided the couple into the bunker, all of them piercing people like ghosts.
The woman who had shed some tears looked at the girl.
"Can you let me see my parents for one last time?"
Marie smiled and turning her hand. The projection rewound to the moment when the woman's parents were close to her.
The woman approached them and could see herself as a baby, so she squeezed her hands and gave the order that the soldiers will lower their weapons.
So they all did it because they were afraid of angering the little girl who seemed to break the laws of reality so easily.
