The New Genesis


A void. Void. Void. An eternal emptiness. A never ending silence. No past no future. Time is still. No sign of existence. Nothing but a being, a consciousness looking into this void through his eyes. This void was created by his own race. He was the last one to survive. He was the only one who listened to what was told, What was instructed. The others who believed with him, were dead before the war and their consciousness was saved and sent to the promised Place . He was the only one left of the believers to witness the end of his world by the hands of his own race. But now he is left in this void. Somehow his consciousness was not sent to the Place like others.

He is feeling empty and alone. He is screaming in loneliness but there is no one to listen. This void killing him. The darkness makes him feel blind.

In frustration he shouted," If I knew you were going to do this to me, I wouldn't have believed in you."

He felt lost.

Then he screamed again," I want this darkness to go away. I want light so that I can see things. Please let there be light."

A blinding blast of light filled his eyes. It was unbearable for him.

He called out," Please I want light and darkness both so that light may not hurt me and darkness may not drive me insane."

The light deemed and came together. And then darkness and light were divided equally. He saw everything. It felt good. 

After sometime some of the light deemed out. He saw that those were planets and stars. It was then when he realized that he was put there to build a new world. A better world than the previous one. He realized that he was chosen to be the one to help create a new world-a good world. He will not do what was done before. He was chosen to do this and not make the same mistake that was made that led the old world to its destruction.
