MINATO'S VISION

Gone are the times,

Gone are the times... When the earth was called "the home of the living".

The times have changed, the times are gone...

As it looks, there are no humans on my planet "Earth" - at least not since "THE CLASH" 

THE CLASH OF THE TRIOSIS

TRIOSIS: The 3 regions [realms] of the earth.

By "the three realms" I mean;

"The realm of the living"

"The realm of the dead" and

"The realm of the living dead"

Two of these realms together formed the earth we knew,

"THE DIOSIS - containing the two kingdoms" are these;

"the kingdom of the living", and

"the realm of the dead"

-where the only visible region is the earth realm ( THE MONOSIS ) - which is also considered as "THE REALM OF THE LIVING"

-The realm from which we all originate.

Everything is different now, things have changed on our planet. My last memory of the Earth before this time goes back to the quake, the partial earthquake that occurred on Friday, January 19, at exactly 1:35 p.m. 

This was no ordinary quake. The day before the event, I saw it in my dreams, it was shown to me. Like a movie on a big screen, it crept into my memory and made me forget all other visions. . .

Before my experience, it had occurred in so many other regions of the world and caused great devastation. The event occurred at the same time but on different days in each part of the world. After hearing about the different places where it occurred, I took it upon myself to do research on this particular type of earthquake, since it was making headlines in all the news on TV and in some newspapers that were available at the time.

The military covered every lead that led to the possibility that these earthquakes were paranormal to avoid questions from the media. People began to panic, and the military only needed to make it appear that everything was under control, but it was not. I knew that, even though so many were deceived.

The last earthquake that occurred was in Nagasaki Japan, my birthplace, my hometown. It was 1:35 p.m. on Friday, I was in a restaurant with my older brother.

We were sitting at a table reserved for us in the back of the restaurant, eating something, when my brother's phone rang.

He went out only to take the private phone call. The earthquake took only a minute to reach its peak. It claimed my brother's life at one point, and I watched it happen. Everything happened so fast that I couldn't even react. Before I could pull myself together, another quake hit half of the building, right where I was standing. The floor opened up and swallowed me. As I fell into a trance, I didn't know what happened next.

What happened after the earth swallowed me was unknown to me, as was what happened while I was still below the surface of the earth. In a few minutes, it seemed to me, I came out of the earth. I was still struggling to break through my subconscious and regain consciousness when I heard noises. It was like a million people moaning and straightening in the distance, their voices sounding like those of zombies - the ones I see on horror shows on TV.

As I was about to regain full consciousness, I heard sounds again. But this time it was different. It was like an electric wave carrying thousands and thousands of angry voices.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I got up with difficulty and trudged to the entrance of the restaurant.

What I saw outside left me speechless. Not a soul was out there. All I saw were destroyed cars and buildings that had been brought down by the devastating quake. The sky was no longer all familiar shades of blue, but looked like blood with black clouds embedded in it. As frightening as it looked, it seemed that the sun, stars and moon were also afraid of the union, for they were nowhere to be seen. They were completely hidden by the scary clouds, so it was difficult to determine the time of day.

I found my phone again, buried under a pile of broken bricks, and I somehow got it to work. It was supposed to be January 19, but after checking my phone's calendar, I found it was January 26. I doubted my phone and rushed to the receptionist's office, which was in the restaurant.

When I got there, my eyes wandered all over the room looking for the sales computer. This part of the building hadn't been affected by the quake, the outer wall was cracked, but most of the office hadn't been affected. While I was looking for the computer, I remembered that my brother was also in the restaurant, and I remembered how he was swallowed by the earth. These memories came to me in a flash, and I rushed out as fast as I could to look for my brother. As I was making my way from the reception office back to the main part of the cafeteria, I realised that I had overlooked a cubicle while walking around. As I approached the cubicle, I noticed that the sales computer was inside, on a wooden desk with a chair leaning against it. I ran to the chair, pulled it out, and sat on it while I tried to turn on the computer. The computer booted up, but it was so slow that all I could do was sit there and slide the mouse back and forth while the cursor danced back and forth on the screen.

"Finally." 

The computer finished booting up, and I jumped to the calendar icon. When I clicked on it, I found that my phone's calendar wasn't fooling me.

"How can this be, is it even possible for a human being to survive under the earth's surface for a day? 

That just means I've been under the earth's surface for a week. "How can I still be alive?" 

"Then Jason must still be alive, too." 

I ran out into the cafeteria. Although I couldn't stop imagining what had happened while I was in the ground, I had to find Jason too, that was my priority.

"Jason! Jason!"

I yelled as I ran around." What happened to all the customers, where did they all go?" I asked.

"What if Jason did not break out like I did, and he's still buried in the ground?" I thought to myself as I walked out onto the lawn in the backyard of the restaurant, looking for a spade to dig up what was left of him - if I could still recover his body.

While I was still in the backyard looking for a shovel or a spade, I heard another noise, it sounded to me like people were fighting, not just a normal fight, it sounded like there was a war going on out there. Hiding behind the fence, I tried to catch a glimpse of what was happening. What I saw blew me away.

It was a crowd of people, people who were basically dead it looked like, but still alive.

In that crowd of dead but living people, I saw Jason. But he is no longer the same man I used to call my brother.

"Wha... What... Jason," I stammered as my eyes fell shut at the sight of him.

This group of dead but living soldiers were fighting a force I could not see, but whose screams I could hear as the battle continued.

I looked out over the battlefield and saw real people, millions of them. They were floating high in the sky above the battlefield as the battle continued. They were not part of the fighting parties, but looked like the party being fought over. It seemed to me that the other two parties were fighting for dominance over the humans, and either party that wins gets to take humanity with them.

As I continued to watch from the back of the fence, I saw all the humans and the other party - which I could not see - disappear. I can only assume that the invisible party won. Shocking as it was, I fainted.

It was a dark moment when I slept through time. A time that I didn't know. After I fainted, I was somewhere between consciousness and unconsciousness, and I had the feeling of being carried on a "carriage' or something similar, I was in constant motion, and not by my actions.

When I regained consciousness, I noticed that the movement still continued. I wanted to open my eyes and see what was moving me, but despite my curiosity, I was too afraid to discover what I might see out there.

I then decided not to open my eyes until the movement had stopped. Then I was content to listen and let my ears do the work.

After a few minutes, my ears couldn't even detect anything sensible.

I got tired of waiting and decided to open my eyes and face what was out there. I opened my eyes immediately and the movement stopped.

That was my last memory of the earth. . .

Even though it was full of confusion and I had no idea what was going on and how the world had suddenly changed, I knew it was Earth. But now. . .

Now, 

After I open my eyes, I'm... I'm in the middle of nowhere. . . . .

I said "nowhere" because it looks like I'm lost in space, I can feel the emptiness inside me. It's empty, cold and silent.

I'm in a place, any place. It's dark and very quiet out here - wherever it may be.

It's so quiet that I can even hear my heartbeat.

It feels like my heart is about to jump out of my chest.

It scares me, the darkness. My eyes have never stopped wandering since I arrived in this place, and I try my best to catch a glimpse of something, anything, that might help me figure out where I'm.

Unfortunately, I can't even see my fingers when I try to move them across my face. That's just how dark it's out here.

As I try to move on in this absolute darkness, I hear whispers; I hear a voice calling me ... it's a male voice.

"Wake up! Wake up!" he says to me. I freeze at the call. My heart skips a beat as it stops beating for a moment. My bones are like splintered ice, and I feel them melting away bit by bit, ever so gradually.

For a moment I thought I was dead, until I felt a liquid running down my thigh. It's so warm, and I can't locate its source as it flows... "What is that, where did that come from?" I mutter to myself, while still busy trying to figure out the source.

"It's piss, you moron!!! hahaha, get up!" says the voice, "get up!" he repeats.

As I try to turn in the direction the voice is coming from. . .

I WAKE UP. . .
