Chapter 2: The Cosmic Collision
Outer space -
Far beyond the reach of human vision, a cosmic event unfurled in the depths of space.
A star, collapsing upon itself, erupted into a powerful supernova, sending waves of energy rippling across the universe.
This explosion of light and energy, unleashed across countless light-years, traveled relentlessly, undeterred by time or distance.
By the time it approached our solar system, the energy had diminished, but its effects were still potent.
Passing through the asteroid belt, the beam of supernova light brushed against a human-sized asteroid.
As the beam collided with it, something remarkable occurred: a strange reaction ignited, causing the asteroid to glow a brilliant golden hue.
Pulsing with newfound energy, the asteroid was jolted onto a new trajectory—one that sent it hurtling straight toward Earth.
Accelerating with incredible speed, the asteroid streaked toward Earth, its surface now wreathed in an intense blue flame.
Earth's gravity pulled it even faster, propelling it toward the planet's surface. Within seconds of entering the atmosphere, the asteroid began to disintegrate, breaking into countless particles of raw, glowing energy.
These fragments continued their descent, streaking toward a specific city below.
