Chapter 5

March 2112: -

Patrick and Shahood are working together on Patrick's projects in his lab. Patrick, after exhausting himself, stands up and walks towards the elevator but turns back to look at Shahood. Shahood isn't distracted by Patrick's sudden actions, neither Shahood shifts his focus. Shahood just keeps on working. Sweat pouring down his face. The determination Patrick sees in Shahood's eyes astonishes Patrick. Having seen all of Shahood's past till now, Patrick silently walks away. When he reaches the kitchen, all lights in his school go off. His school is enveloped by pitch black darkness. Patrick, in a hurry, rushes towards his lab to check out on Shahood. When Patrick reaches the elevator, the elevator door opens and Shahood is already standing there. Students run around in panic. Patrick escorts all the students to outside, fearing that it's a security breach, but once he goes outside and asks his guards to give him a briefing on the situation, he is informed that electricity outage has not only affected his school but also the entire globe. This is a source of relief for Patrick for the time being as his fear of a security breach wasn't true, but the electricity outage affects his projects in the long run. He cannot work on his projects and also cannot continue teaching in his school. The source that carried on his school and projects was electricity and, with no electricity, he becomes unable to do anything. Shahood remains by his side the whole time.

A few decades ago, Humans had created wireless electricity. The idea first came after wireless internet connections. After the first idea, several attempts were made, but at last Elon Musk invented a device that uses electromagnetic radiation to generate electricity. In a certain radius, the device can turn on and off lights, charge phones and do many more but without plugs or wires. Humanity became too reliant on this technology. Solar panels, windmills and other techniques were long forgotten and lost in the past. This new technology gave humanity unlimited electricity using only the power of the Sun. But in 2112, the technology shows faults for the first time because of some unknown radiations emitted from a hospital in Vienna. Because of the radiation, the devices stopped working. The world was left in darkness for one year. Many ways to restart the devices are proposed, including the major source Sun, but humans can only use the Sun if the Sun is there. The next day after the outage, the Sun doesn't appear. Clouds envelope the planet and block all the Sunlight. This goes on for one year and on the same date of the next year, the Sun returns. The devices work again. Patrick works on his projects again. All humans move on from this event after two years, but some mysterious events also take place in that year. Those events will remain hidden from other humans until The Eye of Devil unveils them.
