Synopsis

Chapter 1 - The Discovery

Many years back a strange phenomenon occurred, it changed the course of the world.

In one of the mining operations carried out in the Chilean Desert by Sleight Corp , one of the world's largest cooperations . It had ventured into many fields you name it, mining, jewellery, science and technology. It majored as the world's largest tech giant.

It was not known for sure but this rumour had spread like a wildfire. It was during one of the group's mining activities it had led to the discovery of a portal. An excavator had gone haywire and accidentally destroyed a rock formation causing a chain reaction that led to the formation of a portal.

Sleight Corp dispelled all information concerning the portal. They claimed that this was a lie as they had seen that this area had enough potential and had sealed it to keep competitors from discovering their newest product.

Public pressure forced the world's various governments to inquire on what was going on in the sealed area. The world's leading power volunteered and sent its experts to investigate. What they discovered was kept hidden from the world for almost a year and was only known by those top officials.

When they finally released the information it left the world in a frenzy, no nation could afford to be left out. They officially announced the existence of a portal and not just one but two. The leading superpowers tried to take it forcefully but unfortunately they could not make Sleight Corp,it was way more powerful than it appeared on the surface.

Sleight Corp provided them with one solution they could try to locate other regions with the same energy readings and try to catalyze the opening of another portal. It came with its drawbacks,it would heavily affect the earth's core and this could lead to an unpredictable disaster.

Before entering unfamiliar territory most of the nations inquired on what was on the other side of the portal. The answer was mind-blowing, but who could doubt them ,they could as well have told them that there existed a river of gold and they could believe them. On the other side of the portal was a very different ecosystem they had tried to send drones into the air but even their most heavily armoured drone was shred to bits before taking full flight. The organisms there were too overpowered.

They had luckily managed to capture a weak organism of that planet but on bringing it to this other side it nearly destroyed the entire facility. It looked like a mutated centipede, it had let out a loud screech that had shattered everything in its path including metal the staff nearby had gotten their heads popped off the ones about a mile from the site had become deaf.

After the incident a new crew was dispatched and they found the creature dead . It had seemingly used its last breath to let out that attack. What impressed the new scientists was that the body off the creature was left with numerous medicinal treasures it had on it microorganisms that could survive symbiotically in the human body, it survived on the bacteria that pestered the human body while realising products that could enhance growth but its full capabilities were yet to be explored

The nations couldn't wait and with the aid of Sleight Corp numerous sites were discovered.

The sites were distributed across different continents each had the same energy readings as the location of the first portals. The nations were somehow at ease as they had good relationships per continent. They all came to an agreement that each country was to send in a hundred people across the portal.

The only task left was the opening of the portals . The Sleight Corp experts warned that opening of the portals could put an unimaginable pressure to the tectonic plates and would lead to very serious damage to the earth surface negatively affecting the general population.

The nations powered by greed ignored the warnings and went ahead to open the portals. Slowly the apocalypse of the great earth began.

Volcanoes started erupting violently ,great earthquakes occurred and violent tsunamis. The damage was done and there was no way to fix it the earth would possibly collapse in entirety but gradually. The only way out was now through the portals. The nations urged their citizens to move through the portals surrendering to an unknown fate. They even provided transport services.
