Dylan: Mankind's Last Hope

Prologue

The year 5000: An intense wave of space-time turbulence swept the earth away, causing the solar system to collapse.

The blue planet spiralled through the space in an oblique trajectory for millions of light years before colliding with Candela, a planet located in the condor galaxy.

This distance might seem unsurmountable, but the manipulation of the space time disturbance propelled the earth through this distance within 30 years.

30 years of sheer destruction and bloodshed. Tornadoes, earthquakes, cosmic storms, chipped at the earth. Shockwaves generated during this process caused mountains to be levelled and plains to be crushed. Then, the earth’s crust started peeling off layer by layer, gradually reducing its volume.

Amidst this chaos, there was a dome shaped structure that was still standing tall. If one noticed carefully, they could see that this dome gave off electromagnetic vibrations. Every time there was a shock wave, these vibrations would adjust their frequency to match it.

This dome, known as the oscillatory domain, was the proud result of human technological innovation built as a safeguard against all cosmic dangers.

Within this domain were the last of human beings who had managed to respond to the emergency summons on time.

When the cosmic storm hit, the dome went into hyper emergency mode, putting everyone into delta sleep to reduce the consumption of oxygen and power.

Thirty years later, when the remanent of the earth’s core collided with Candela, the oscillatory dome finally broke down, crumbling under the impact.

Four hundred people, who were at the rear end of the domain, were completely crushed while several others were injured.  

There were about three hundred people who were still in a good condition but the chances of their survival was very low. Without the stimulation of the artificial environment, they couldn’t stay alive for long unless they woke up.

Among the survivors was Dylan, a ten-year-old boy. He was the son of a famous scientist who was quite paranoid by nature. As such, he had dozens of defensive nano chips implanted into his body when he was merely five.

Dylan’s peers often mocked him but during the upheaval, these chips turned out to be blessing in disguise.

Once the cosmic storm hit, all the nano chips were activated automatically. If there was one person who could survive despite the catastrophe, it was Dylan.
