It was the year 2045, the world was going through many global events many countries initiated wars between themselves, and wars initiated between global superpowers became common, many governments falling to either enemies or coup d'état started by civilians or the military.
And new countries were born.
Amongst all this chaos, there was an event it was an event that no body thought could effect their lifes in any way possible let alone the world in any way possible so, it was ignored by the world;
But rather did they knew, this event would escalate to a point where the entire universe,
No, not just the universe but the multiverse and maybe the whole cosmos's fate would one day all lie in the hands of a singular man.
That event being the death of that same man who will one day hold the fate of all of existence in his hands.
It was a normal saturday midnight. It was 19th day of the tenth month of the year 2047 of the morden calendar.
It was two in the middle of the night.
When we see a man in a black hoodie and on a call with probably a friend.
There conversation went on for a few minutes when the one in the black hoodie said
"Oh well what you guys want since we are going to pull an all nighter anything specific i am at the conveneince store"
From the other side of the call it seemed like the person was asking other people near him for what to get when after a few questions they responded with
"Ah, just 3 cold coffee, 1 hot coffee, and 6 cold beers, and if possible a few bags of salted chips"
"All right, got'cha"
The man in hoodie cuts the call and starts walking towards convenience when he hears a voice call out to him
"Brother, wait for me"
The man in the hoodie turns back to see a woman well in her late thirties' running towards him
"Oh, Shiro it's rare to see you awake so late"
"Shut up, Mr. Amatsuki who even uses that type of gamertag these days"
"Well then, Shiro your *IGM literally translates to the color white so don't call me on my choice of a gamertag, Okay"
[*IGN stands for In Game Name]
"Uh, fine so what are you doing here brother?"
"Just acquiring some refreshments for the gang, Got to pull an all nighter"
"Wait you too, but weren't you out with your friends on like a anime watching spree. No matter what, I came here for the same reason"
"Wow, luck is really something isn't it"
"Well, I couldn't agree more"
After that the conversation between Sora and Shiro continued for sometime, and through out their shopping in the convenience store, and after they got out of the store Sora says to Shiro
"Wait a sec let me tell the others that I got their refreshments"
"Okay"
"Thanks"
Sora pulls out his phone from his pocket and starts to text the other colleagues.
When Shiro suddenly shouts
"Hey!! watch out kid"
When Sora turns towards the source of sound produced he sees that Shiro is running towards a kid who was about to be ran over by a speeding truck.
The moment he saw that his little sister was running towards a truck, although it was to save the kid; he ran towards her to stop her and then she forcefully pushed the kid out of harms way, but it looked like it was the end for her.
When suddenly, Sora jumped towards her and held her hand, only for him to also come into the path of the speeding truck. There was no time to dodge the truck. So in a rush Shiro asks her big brother moments before the truck hit them both
"Why did you jump in !?"
At that instant, a smile appeared on Sora's face and only a few words came from him just before the truck ran them over, and those words were
"Because I am your brother"
Shiro's eyes widen over the response given by her big brother.
But before she could say anything there a loud thud and crushing sound of bones was herd in the entire area and people started gathering at the scene.
And, as blood spilt on the asphalt and people witnessed the mangled bodies of two persons, their bodies no longer distinguishable from minced meat.
It was then that the soul of both the person's left their bodies and began to assend towards the sky.
However, it seemed that nobody could see the large orbs of light leaving the bodies.
When the orbs of light reached the a certain height then suddenly, the orbs of light which could be classified as souls accelarated to such a speed that they broke through the fabrics of space and time and into a place which can only be described as unknown and divine
The souls of Sora and Shiro were passing through the entire place gliding along the clouds which were swirling around them, and then a singular source of light like a star; shining through the clouds creating a rainbow of colors.
The air was crisp and clean, and one could hear the sound of birds singing in the trees. It was the most beautiful place one could witness only describable as Heaven
Then, suddenly large gates made of an unknown material manifested at a distance from them, they both started heading towards the gates.
As they were getting closer to the gates, the two who were now just two orbs of light slowly started growing and began to form a spherical object and soon the sphere started reforming to the shape of a head of a human, and by each step they took the orb enlarged and contorcted and reshaped itself to closely resemble a humanoid silhouette starting from a floating object that vaguely looked like a head now it closely resembled the shape of a human.
"Woah, is this what happens after death; this feels weird and cool at the same time"
"How is this happening, No, what is happening? are we dead? What is happening to us, Brother?"
"I don't know, maybe it is because it is how we perceive ourselves, since we saw ourselves like this our whole lifes"
"Brother, do you know what is this place?"
"One word, Heaven"
"Cool and here I thought there would be reincarnation shennanigans"
Then suddenly a large being only describable an entity manifested at a distance infront of them and spoke to them, his voice shook the entire place, the whole place rumbled and quaked in his pressence and under the pressure of his words.
The entity made of pure light or how some might say energy towering over the two at a height which would dwarf the tallest building made by humans. His size wasn't just his selling factor that he was a higher being altogether.
"Oh, what do we have here, humans looks like you were able to come here because of your deeds, So tell me who are you two. As far as I'm concerned you two are new here since, I know every part of this place"
It was as if, they would collapse by just his words and pressure from his pressence; however despite this Sora and Shiro both were unaffected by this entity's pressence but definitely intrested, and this interest led to only only thing
"Who are you?" As they both ask in unison. The entity's eyes widen in suprise, at this question the entity thinks to himself
'What the- These souls can see me and on top can also hear what I said and reply back, I guess miracles do happen after all'
(But I guess, since these small souls asked I reply kindly as well)
"Greetings mortals, I am AZAZEL, the lord of this place; What may I help you with ?" His facial features emerging with a grin suggesting something big is about to happen.
what will happen to Sora and Shiro after this will find heaven and eternal peace for their sacrifice to save a child or a hell of heartless choices and misery we don't know for sure but what we do know is that nothing will come out good from this higher being named AZAZEL
However, we will only know that next time
