Area One.

From ashes we came and to dust we will go,
Destruction and Death is Inevitable.
The time it comes, no one knows.
Skyscrapers and tall buildings will fall,
Those mechanical birds will crash.
The skies will be filled with dark smog and ash,
The world will be torn asunder.

There were prophecies of Armageddon and Meteor,
The sinking of the Everest, the overflowing of the Pacific.
The Coming of the Savior. Judgement.

Panic and Fear roam the streets.
People crying, on their knees, begging for mercy,
While non-believers try to make the most of this mess,
Indulging in their sacrilegious actions, heresies.

War and Conflict is everywhere,
People are committing murder on broad daylight,
The fresh corpses lie on the street, stepped on, run over.
They've all gone out of control.
Gunshots, Bomb blasts, Rain of Fire.
The fine line between Terrorist and Police cannot be defined.

****

Insanity. Madness. Ultimate Chaos.

And here It comes.
A Light from the heavens,
shining like a Thousand Suns.
No one could explain what It was,
They all stopped, dropped everything they were doing
and looked up in astonishment and awe.

Is It Jesus? Is It A Meteor? Has the Sun blown up?
Questions in their minds, but none of them spoke.
Destruction and Death is Inevitable.
The time it comes, no one knows.
but maybe this is the time.
Armageddon and Judgement.

Then. Complete Silence came.
It was more silent that you could ever imagine.
The Light shot to the ground and spread like wildfire.
Everything turned Immaculate white,
Everything was turned to dust.
No One was left. Nothing was Left.
Everything was Gone.

*****

A million years after,
there rose a being from the ashes.
He retained speech and sense, but he had no memory.
He was confused, as if he had been asleep.
Where Am I?
He ran. Ran to the highest peak he could reach.
and from there, he saw, a steam-punk era metropolis.
A place named A.R.E.A. One.

His name was Adam.
