-An Ordinary Day on Earth-
Misa was no ordinary person.
She had a luckier and more comfortable life than the average. Ever since she was little, she had the perks of growing up in a wealthy and influential family. Had a perfect house, car, childhood, circle of friends and a beautiful life. Moreover, with her green eyes and beautiful face, she had an image that would be considered attractive all over the world. She had a body that remained in perfect shape even though she had never exercised in her life. She could eat as much as she wanted and would never gain weight. It was like she was a chosen one or a doll created by God, and she didn't have to struggle for this perfect life.
By the time she was 19, Misa could get into any college she wanted. She was academically successful. She could do whatever she wanted to do in life or take over her family's business.
But Misa's story got interesting here. When She told her parents that she wanted to be an idol instead of going to college, no one took it well.
In fact, this young girl lived through several weeks of action, including fights and nearly being kicked out of the house. But as she was the only child and beloved princess of the house everyone had to let her go. She won another victory. While Misa was only studying for a year and getting through the rookie period, she was loved even in the music company she signed with.
She was working in a training group deemed appropriate by the company, while she was making young and ambitious friends like herself. After Misa showed that she excels at singing, playing a musical instrument, or dancing in record time, they decided that she would join a group that would already debut. Misa was running from success to success, even getting through the rookie period that should have lasted a few years.
She has a stylist, personal hairdresser and already a personal manager to help her reflect her style. But she fell ill right in the middle of this chaos.
..
When Misa woke up that day, she was not feeling well. He ran to the bathroom with a great nausea and stomachache in his stomach. She felt sick and sore as she spent half an hour in the bathroom while looking at her phone.
She was taking medication to fix herself on a two-day leave. If she could get better today, Misa wanted to stop by the company in the evening and see what her friends were doing. She didn't leave his bedroom for two days, except to go to the bathroom and bored. Maybe she would feel better with hot water. Bath would be nice.
She turned on the water in the bathtub and begun to take off her clothes. While waiting for the running water to warm up, she looked at her palms, then lifted her head and caught sight of the mirror. She was shocked by what she saw. There was a message in the mirror.
"You have been chosen by the Federation to be taken to the Temple. You will represent your human species on planet B-46. Be ready in two days and prepare for your 12 o'clock reception. You have been tasked with notifying your family. Once received, communication with your planet will be cut off.
We would like to remind you that the best conditions will be provided during your six-month journey. Do not be afraid and trust the Federation that brings order to the entire universe.
Nameless and Neutral Federation wish you good luck!"
Misa didn't believe what she was seeing and thought that some pervert or her friends were joking. But while she was calling her bestfriend on the phone, she came out of the bathroom and into the bedroom. She had already given up the shower. Because if this message has any truth in it...
Misa thought of Eren, whom she watched every night without missing a day. She had seen what the boy had been through for the past two months. Misa swallowed at the thought of fearlessly killing strange creatures with knives and guns. "I can't do such things! No.... My life is in perfect order. Everything is going well. It can't be, is it?"
But while she was getting dressed in the bedroom, she looked in another mirror and saw the same message there.
She opened her phone's camera and there it was. The same message.
"What a disgusting way to send messages."
°•○●
Sofia was an ordinary person living in Russia. She had just married six months ago had a happy life with her handsome husband. She was working as a secretary at a local dentist. The man she married also owned a small shop selling vehicle parts. While their lives were going great, a disgusting truth came to light for Sofia.
Her husband had another lover. Moreover, this woman who even came to their wedding was Sofia's friend!
Fights broke out at home between Sofia and her husband. She began to see an angry and disgusting side of the man she married that she never knew existed. Then Sofia was beaten by her husband for raising her voice even though she was right.
Sofia has lost all her joy and happiness in life. She couldn't talk about it with her family because she had a more traditional family. They lived in a family culture where once you got married there was no divorce. In a town in Nevre City east of Moscow, life wasn't going well for Sofia.
Once the beatings started, her husband started coming home with lipstick on his cloths and the scent of women's perfume. After his other relationship came to light, her husband began to see her as an object that only cooks at home and he can fuck at night. And he came home drunk and started beating Sofia more heavily.
She considered going to the police but the place they lived in was too small and things would only get worse. Now Sofia's life was spiraling and she wasn't even comfortable at work.
There was no place for her to run.
But on the morning of that day... as she was applying cream to cover the bruise on her throat in the mirror, she saw the message.
"By the Federation...."
For the first time in her life, Sofia felt so relieved. She wrote this message on the internet but couldn't see anything. But a voice inside her was telling she would get rid of her troubles now.
Instead of being trapped in her current life, she would join a 17-year-old boy in an alien temple and fight aliens. Besides, she was saddened by the fact that the boy was alone and was barely maintaining his sanity. She would die in a battle for the future of humanity if necessary.
..
That day, Sofia relaxed and went to the kitchen and prepared herself a nice breakfast after a long time. She called her office and said she couldn't come to work. As an excuse, she got corona.
"Two days later they won't be able to put me back in this cage even if they wanted to!"
While she got her toast bread and ate her boiled egg, she took out the fish her mother had brought the day before. Today she was just going to eat and drink as she like. In the fridge, there were her husband's expensive whiskey and vodkas. Sofia was planning to eat and drink whatwever she wanted by tomorrow night.
She had seen Eren's troubles with food. Maybe she would even go to an expensive hotel before her husband arrives and continue the fun until tomorrow.
As soon as Sofia saw the message, she didn't have a single doubt about its veracity. She was sure that a god or an alien had pity on her and rescuing her.
Sofia was holding on to some strange thoughts at times. Like any person suffering.

From a middle-aged woman who had just arrived in Manchester, England, people in Canada and eastern Africa saw the same message. Everyone who saw it either told this to her family or kept it to herself.
Because they were all people without ties.
The Federation randomly selected people, yes. But it was also careful that these people didn't have bonds that they couldn't break. That's why all of them, except for one or two, didn't tell anyone about the message. They even tried to use the internet for fun and advices in the last two days. They knew the living conditions of Eren.
"How to cook, how to hunt, how to use guns etc."
Like the rest of the world, these chosen people had seen what Eren had been through in recent months. In fact, this boy was something like the character of the TV series that they had the most sympathy for until then. But the fact that they were going to see him now made things serious.
These people, all from different parts of the world, had no idea about something.
They weren't the only ones going to the temple.
°•○●
At different points in the universe, two individuals were selected from among the many human societies, including humanoids on planet B-46. One was someone who looked like humans but with long ears like a cat's. The other was a cook who was very famous on his home planet A-126483 named "Agorr".
...
The same message was sent to these "humans", both from Earth and from other parts of the Universe. When the time for the Temple's election over the Federation was over, the same message would be sent to all of them. Since this message is genetic, it only appeared on a surface where they could see their own reflections clearly and with their own eyes (water reflection, camera or mirrors).

Just as Misa was walking to the restaurant where she had agreed to meet her mother nearby, she felt a strange pain in her head. Then that feeling faded and disappeared.
She was about to pass out, as if her blood pressure was dropping.
And in that second she discovered that she was no longer on the street she was walking on.
"Didn't they send me the message a few hours ago?" When Misa remembered that she hadn't gotten out of bed for two days, she got angry at her bad luck and examined the room she was in. She was both frightened and strangely not frightened. He smiled as if it was normal for a special person like him to be chosen.
"I was chosen from among billions of people. Hahaha..."
One window of this room with windows faced a wide and lighted corridor. Looking through the tiny window, she saw a lot of different aliens walking to different spots inside. They were all dressed elegantly and formally. They were three-handed, five-armed and short, or ten-fingered and very tall.. they were all in different shapes and colors.
Misa was overjoyed, rather than angry, that there was no door. She didn't need any alien harrasment for her mental health.
Everything she would need was allocated in the room. There were even a few machines and places she didn't know what they were for. It wasn't a very small place.
Misa walked to the other window before she explored the room. But as she got closer, she couldn't believe her eyes.
"I'm in space!"
One of the places where a creature can feel how small and worthless it is in the huge universe might be the inside of a spaceship. In that moment, Misa remembered the world she had left behind and her dreams in her own life. It all seemed so empty as she stared into this vacuum of space.
...
Unlike Misa, Sofia started laughing when she found herself in the room on the spaceship. She stole a huge bag of tech devices from a local store and enormous amount of liquor today.
She put down her huge handbags and backpack filled with enough liquor to last herself for months. After she got up and ran to the inside window, she saw an alien creature and started shouting.
"HELLO! HOW ARE YOU? I AM SOFİA!!!"
Sofie was really weird.
