Chapter 1 - The End is Approaching

"More than sixty million years have gone since an asteroid with a diameter of only nine kilometers was responsible for the extinction of a great number of animals, including dinosaurs. Is this what the future holds for humanity? Or will a miracle prevent the NASA-confirmed report that this planet is on the verge of extinction and that there are barely few days left before the asteroid smashes the planet's surface?

According to what NASA has confirmed, one of the planetoids orbiting Jupiter has broken the gravity field that keeps those asteroids in their proper positions, causing the asteroid and its companion to deviate, traveling in the direction of Earth at a speed of 20,000 kilometers per minute.

On September 25, 2022, one of the TV hosts closed her piece by stating that it will be their last television transmission ever. As soon as the news circulated, there was a commotion across the nation, which led to thousands, then millions, of postings and tweets on social media. Under the category "The End," some of them state that "The End is Approaching," and so on.

All people were primarily concerned with getting what they want, whether by robbery, looting, or other illegal means.

There were thousands of robberies and hundreds of killings occurring all across, making it difficult for anyone to maintain control. The opportunity to enforce the law was lost. Except for a small percentage of the population, who went through their daily lives in a routine or peaceful manner, appreciating each moment for the rest of their lives, everyone else pursued his goals. Some individuals had retired for religious reasons or to atone for their lifetime of sins.

The person who was either isolated from the rest of the population or who did not have access to the news may have been the most fortunate at that time since they were able to go about their daily lives without the panic that had spread among the other human beings.
