Synopsis

Chapter 1 - GOD?

Early in the morning, the sun still hadn't risen.

The sky was blocked by thick dark clouds.

One look at the sky, anyone would think.

'It's going to rain.'

In one of the smallest apartments in the vicinity, and a wooden one at that, a young man with an unkempt hair sluggishly woke up a tired look on his face.

The first thing he did when he woke up was to reach for his phone beside the bed atop the table and open it.

The bright screen was reflected before his tired golden eyes.

He blinked a couple of times, slowly adjusting to the light.

He ignored anything else as his eyes quickly drifted to the battery percentage that's at 12%, and he groaned.

The tired expression he has was instantly replaced by a big frown.

He raises his head, shrugging the bangs that had blocked his sight.

What was revealed under his unkempt bangs was an overly handsome but at the same time unrealistically adorable face.

Anyone no matter the gender who lays their eyes on him would instantly be captivated.

His hair is silver, a unique hair color for the country his in.

Silver color might seem out of place but there were some people that had this hair color all around the world.

Moreover, his skin is so white that it was almost transparent and one could tell that his skin is soft and tender.

Another characteristic that made him out of place.

He is Kent Scarlet a 20-year-old first year college student major in 'BSIT' but not for long at least.

He hadn't been entering his classes for the past four months.

He didn't tell his parents about it, nor did his friends 'not that he have one in the first place'.

Kent is an introvert, and a pure one at that.

But this isn't the reason for why he skipped four months of class.

He also didn't know why he did skip classes, it was as if he just felt like skipping class.

You may call it premonition or an excuse, but that's just it.

He doesn't have any concrete reasoning if someone asked him why.

He quickly searched for the charger as if his life depends on it.

Unable to find it in his bed and the table he was forced to stand up and get up from the bed.

In the four months he had been staying indoors in his one-man cramp apartment he had become somewhat of a slothful person.

"Where is that fella hiding."

He muttered, the frown on his face kept on worsening.

It was then, at this moment that the whole world seems to have stopped moving.

Time literally did stop.

Time did stop, but his thought process didn't.

"What's going on?"

He thought, confused about the situation.

Who wouldn't be, if you found yourself in his place.

[Humans and non-humans, my children, I am Gaia your creator and mother.]

[The world you lived in, my fragment is about to end, it might not look like it but the planet your living in you called 'Earth' is exhausted beyond recovery.]

[I do not blame you even though you're the caused of this planets end because development is something natural to happen, and the same goes for the end.]

[However, I couldn't sit and just watch all of you perish from this unavoidable apocalypse if I don't intervene.]

[So in order to change your fates I decided to sent you all in another world, but unlike the world you live in all your lives 'Earth' this world is a higher world named 'Celestial Prime' what I mean by higher world is that… it's something for you to discover on your own.]

[I hope you don't repeat the same mistakes you did in your home planet, good luck and survive my children.]

Time returned to normal.

Kent slumped on the ground terrified, and a bit traumatized.

"So, that's the feeling of not having control over your life and death."

He muttered in a silent voice.

Before his eyes a blue holographic screen appeared.

His just gave the blue screen a second glance and after reading the message presented on it he moves.

He didn't bother doubting the god, or she might be, he didn't care, calling herself 'Gaia' and portraying herself as their mother.

[98 seconds before transfer, holding the hands of people you trusted when the '0' mark arrives will transfer you in the same place, the same goes for the things you have in you.]

He was alone in his apartment.

He only knew a couple of people and none of them he truly trusted, he couldn't even call them friends, the same goes for his parents.

What he did instead is to pick up tools and necessities he needed.

5 seconds before the transfer he appeared before the refrigerator, he hugged it gambling, hoping that it will be transfer together with him.

The timer reached the '0' mark thereafter a pillar of complete white light descended upon him, no not just him but every inhabitant of earth, animals, insects, and plant life wasn't an exception to this.

The entirety of the whole world was covered in white light.

Seconds later, the moment the dazzling white light ended the world 'Earth' literally live up to its name, it became a real dirt and nothing more nothing less.
