Armageddon...
The only word came to Shokal's mind , when he was watching the panicking Crowd in the streets running from the hellish sight in the sky.
The sky was crimson red. As if someone killed God in the heaven and made the sky drenched in his blood.
"As if someone can kill God, scoff".. He was giggling like a mad man while drinking the beer that's in his hand. " Then why did the world is ending today?" He asked himself while controlling his urge to panic and cry like a little child.
Today was his first day after getting the civil service job. His happiest day in life after surviving this hellish urban life for 10 years. 10 years struggle of a low income family boy who just became a man today. For 10 years, he waited for this moment.His rundown apartment , his '1 meal a day' life, his poor lifestyle was supposed to change today. He had faith in God more than anyone. He knew God is going to give him success. And God did give but Shokal didn't know that it would be the last day of Earth.
No one knew what was happening. From the morning the sky was crimson red . The tall buildings, trees of the central park, cars, even humans started seeping like ink that goes upward until their whole existence in vanished. As if the reality is getting unraveled in thousands of strings of calligraphy ink and going upwards. People started panicking after seeing this horrible sight. There's chaos everywhere, buildings crumbling like sand castles, people running everywhere, Children watching their mother getting disintegrated Infront of them into thin air. Echoes, sounds, crying, can be heard from every corner . No one had an explanation for this. But everyone knew the world is ending.
Shokal's body started seeping in the morning. Left side of his body is not visible now. Just hundreds of thin threads of black ink going upwards from that side can be seen. His right hand still holds the beer can that he's sipping with a calm face. Maybe the cruel truth that he's going to die in a moment had made him calm in his last moment. He was thinking about the cause of this hell.
" So God is really dead, sigh". He was imagining How God got betrayed by his fellow Gods who manages other worlds and killed him. And he's going to reincarnate in another world and have a better life. " Haha, just like the Novels I read all the time".
Suddenly , without Shokal's noticing, the black ink like threads of his left side started glowing like rich golden strings starting from the sky. When the light reached him, shokal stared at it like it had enchanted him.
At the same time he heard a female voice in his mind, " Thank you for thinking about me. Maybe you can punish this injustice."
Shokal was surprised. He looked around him. No one was here in his rundown balcony without him.
" I'm I hearing things before death?" Shokal asked himself.
The female voice continued," I'm giving you my last bit of powers. Save them and ..."
Before she could finish, a crimson light descendant from the sky, as the same way as the golden light , and exploded Shokal's half disintegrated body. Black and red splattered everywhere. It was a horrible sight...
