Episode 2

Jyun's mother, the lady in silk and all the family members had escaped from the back. She was worried about her husband but was walking as fast as her high Heels could take her.

“ Halt citizens! One more step and I'll shoot you.” A voice was heard from behind.

She didn't knew when the person arrived and how they were spotted. She tried to cover her child who was almost 7 years by now. She tried her best to protect him when she saw some disturbances in the surroundings. Something was not right. Was it the power of the machine? Or was it supernatural.

She didn't know what it was but she wasn't scared. Her son was in her arms. She was going to protect her child with everything she could. The sound of gunshots broke her train of thoughts. She turned around and saw the same man who was threatening her just a few seconds ago holding his gun pointing at her.

The flow of time was broken and the sky was covered in darkness. The space time continuum was no longer a continuum. Space began to crack due to distortion of time. Some plants just started blooming and aged. While one of the tree across the street started shrinking in size.

No it was not shrinking it was actually anti aging and turning into a plant and then sapling until it disappeared. The soldier was horrified by the scene. He couldn't believe what he had just seen right now. He started to panic the more he saw. There was a glitch in the matrix and void remained in many places. The houses began to fall apart. The soldier looked his hands he could see his hands becoming pale. It seemed he is aging. He touched his face and couldn't believe he was wrinkling.

“What have you done to me witch!" he shouted while pointing the gun towards the lady.

“Please take the child and run I would take care of him" she wispered to the maid.

The maid could not leave her mistress alone but she knew that the child's life is more important than an adult’s, so she quietly followed her instructions. She took the boy who was struggling not to leave her mother. But was taken aback by the servants.

They ran as fast as they could and left the mistress behind.

                           BOOM!!

The gun shot was heard. The mistress fell to the ground. Blood dripping from her waist. She tried to cover her waist using her hand but the blood didn't stop to flow. Soon she could no longer sense her hearing. She could only see that the soldier shot her unexpectedly. Tears fell from her eyes. She raised her hand towards the soldier as if saying

“please let me see my son and Husband alive".

Soon everything was blank and she could no longer see.

The world became dark and silent.

She was afraid. Afraid of dying alone in a place she does not know. Afraid to meet her husband in a place she doesn't recognize. She felt so helpless and helpless. She tried to open her mouth and yell but no sound came out. Everything around her looked pitch black.

The darkness became even more intense. She was scared. She was scared she might never find peace. She tried calling out to someone. She called for anyone, but nobody was there. The void was consuming her. She felt cold and weak. The darkness consumed her and soon she passed out.

Only the soldier knew how elegantly she had died.

He walked closer to her and placed his gun down. He kneeled in front of her and caressed her beautiful face and wiped away her tears.

The maid was left traumatized as she knew it was only her mistress who was shot by that evil soldier. She didnt knew that ageing made the soldier lost his mind. He didn't wanted to die old and didnt realised when he had pressed the trigger.

The poor woman was shot by his mistake. She didn't deserve any death. That woman was nothing less than a angel to everyone who met her. Even though she was only 27, she was loved by everyone in her circle. Even those who hated her before had fallen in love with her. But they were too late to save her from death. She did not deserve to die young like that. She deserves to live long. So why is there this war and so much death? She couldn't understand it.

She couldnt comprehend that the mistress was gone forever and that she was the last surviving member of her family and friends. She didn't know what to do anymore. All she knew was that she was now alone. She cried silently. The maid was afraid that someone was watching her as she wept on the ground.

“ Jyun do you see the cliffs over there and the forest. Can you please bring me the medicine from there. It can save your mother.” The maid assured the little boy and pointed towards the cliffs.

Jyun ran as fast as he could towards the forest to bring in The medecine.

The maid knew how she can save the boy. But deep within she was crying. She knew they would not be able to see him again. They could no longer meet the mistress. And soon everyone in the town would just collapse. Soon there was a huge explosion and the whole town was engulfed in flames. Everyone present there, may it the soldiers or ordinary civilians. No one could escape from the fate. When entropy of time is impished and due to diffence of speed of time at different parts of space. Such is the nature of time that space is destroyed creating a huge impact and all of the mass is converted into energy.

But this also leads to the creation of other dimensions such as dimensions between which a number of different dimensions exist. These dimensions were created because the chaos caused by the destruction of the past dimension resulted in the creation of new dimensions. The same process takes place with the expansion of dimensions and also with the birth and growth of stars in the universe. Time is only the beginning of all universes. As time passes through different dimensions time becomes unstable, and thus the dimensions expand and contract along with their dimensions. In fact they become unstable and are constantly expanding, like an inflating balloon and eventually it pops. When this happens, all of these dimensions disappear leaving nothing but debris behind.

Time is an extremely fragile concept, even in this era. The moment time begins to change is the moment that it begins to break down.

This is the reason why people fear time. Everything is always changing but time will never ever end. Every second has eternity. The infinite amount of time flows through your body with each passing second. However you cannot control it nor do you want to control it because you are aware that time will eventually pass and you might lose your life during its journey.

That was why everyone feared time. No one knows how it will affect us. We can't predict what kind of changes and destructions it will cause throughout our lives. Time itself does not want anyone to change the future. For it knows it would destroy everything. But for some unknown reasons time wants to preserve the current situation.
