Crocs_is_Dead

The world was never the same after that day.

Humanity learned that they weren't alone in the universe, but that wasn't something they had the time to worry about.

Their realization was accompanied by catastrophe.

Creatures beyond their wildest imaginations poured down from the sky and appeared from the earth. They slaughtered humans as if it was their singular purpose, driving them to the brink of extinction.

The people of the world did everything in their power, developing unique traits and technologies to create a united front their enemies couldn't penetrate. 

They secured victories and repopulated, feeling as if they stood a chance against the foreign invaders. 

They fought and they fought, doing everything they possibly could to ensure their survival.

Until the Great Calamities appeared. 

In front of them, humanity was nothing regardless of its efforts.

One by one, the worlds were turned into piles of rubble in between the cracks of their teeth. Civilization was torn apart, and the evolved humans living within could do nothing to stop its collapse. 

Humanity itself was left extinct, and in the end, only a single man was left alive amidst the chaos. 

Why?

For what reason were they punished so? 

Nobody knew why the attacks began in the first place.

He looked into the distance at the memories of the past and firmed his resolve. 

“It can only be me.”

He knew of a miracle that could return him to the place of those memories.

He knew of a way to make the wheels of time spin in reverse. 

And using it, he alone would save humanity from its doomed fate. 

That was his sacred duty as its final survivor.

Transcendent Gene

There were twelve beasts, but none of them were as massive as the blood serpent. They were all either reptilians or canines, all standing ten feet tall at the very least.

Gio was only able to catch sight of them for a moment before that dust cloud appeared.

The sound of the object's descent was like a comet, and the impact rang out like the area had been bombed from above.

Gio covered his face with his hand again, clearing the vision through his visor with gritted teeth.

The object landed on the edge of the cave, not outside. It brought down the cave entrance and widened the hole generously with its sheer weight before even touching the ground.

Gio had no idea what it was, but its presence didn't make him happy. Anything that could create that kind of force was a problem. Whether it was an object or a living entity, it couldn't be anything helpful.
