  CHAPTER 1

  An Unknown Threat

  Somewhere in Space:

  "My name is Aleina and today I have something that may be useful in saving our universe. I want to show this to all of you. As per my opinion, this is only thing we can have which can terrorize the upcoming terror," Aleina - a member of space council came and said this to their chief sitting in front of her.

  She is an elite member of this space council whose main aim is to keep this whole universe intact and stable. They have enough resources and warriors to take down any kind of scary invasion but something is going wrong this time. They are afraid of something... something unknown and scarier. According to their available data, that scarier creature doesn't belong to this universe. They came from somewhere else and their intention may be to steal their universe or may want to rearrange everything. But the thing is that they all are terrified of the coming danger. They are preparing themselves to be ready for war, but it feels that they are not comparable to them. They have seen that threats are real which was proved by recent attack of their minions.

  A recent attack, that made them lose a lot, not only made them feel that they are vulnerable to upcoming invasion, but also forced them to think that they are weak. It doesn't matter anymore, that how much they feel proud on their legacy... how many wars, they have won... or how many times, they have played unpredictable move to defeat their enemies. Glorious history does not repeat itself every time, but we need to make a move to maintain its glory and it is not the matter of shame to find a help, even if you consider yourself the most valuable and powerful.

  Today, sign of terror can be seen on the face of every member of this space council. This council has served its purpose very well so far, and they all expect to continue this in future. They want to make life better. They have fought the war many times against many scary invasion and kept all the life in this universe intact, stable and safer but, today they seem to lose everything... their pride, glory, strength and most importantly the position of defending each and every life-form. But they will not let that happen so easily.

  So, now their mission has changed and now they are trying to get help. They want to find or make some weapon which could be helpful in upcoming war. But, at the same time they are also trying to find someone who may have fought war or capable to take down these threats to make the whole universe stable again with hope. They have sent their team lead by powerful member to find any clue which can lead them to some important result. Aleina is one of their elite members who is the leader of one such team whose search mission includes of finding anything that can lead them to a fighter who would like to help them.

  Aleina, a beautiful young woman... confidence in her eye, anger and self believe on the face and ready to do anything that can make her path clear, doesn’t look any less than a true warrior. She has led them to many victories in the past and that’s why the experienced chief of this council has shown trust on her again. She never has disappointed anyone who trusted on her, and this time also, she came with something.

  Everyone sitting there were tired of listening failure from all the members and were waiting to see their last days. In these circumstances, the sentence, that came out of Aleina's tongue got able to make them alive again for a moment. The intense hope can easily be seen in the eye of those older and experienced member. They just wanted to safely pass the command of this universe into young hands so that newer generation will take the responsibilities of what they were doing.

  Aleina put forward that in front of member of space council.

  "What is this… This is just an old diary. How this can be useful to all of us," chief leader of the council Zxon asked with showing a little irritation. They all were expecting some more important thing or maybe a powerful weapon, 'but... how a small diary can be useful in this war.

  "Diary is not important but its content is," Aleina said with an intense voice.

  "What is there in diary," some other member asked.

  "This diary illustrates story about a young, brave and extremely powerful fighter who fought alone to save the whole mankind," Aleina said.

  "Okay. So, let's assume if you are right but how you can be so sure that everything written there is truth and not a lie or a trap for us," chief council asked with a doubt.

  It wasn't easy for them to believe anything blindly after recent invasion. This has made them more awake.

  On any normal occasion she could have played any funny kind of game to make the situation sarcastic and light, but this is very serious situation.

  "Have any of you heard about truth detector," Aleina said.

  "What are you saying? We all believed that it is just a myth." Zxon doubted.

  "I also had considered this as a myth, until I took one into my possession," Aleina said. She added, "I guess, we are about to get many new things and learn a lot of mysterious and dangerous facts."

  "May be, you are right. So, what do you say," Ykon asked. He was close companion of Zxon. They had fought many times together and won but in current situation they are finding them-self helpless.

  "I have tested it myself with this magical device. But I know that you are more exp
erienced than me. So, I want you all to test the correctness of this diary with the help of exactly following the prescribed method written in our holy book. I just want we all to hope, that this diary is correct. Because if this is true, our universe will get a chance to survive in this cold and dark," Aleina said.

  "You got a fair point. You are right. We should do this," Zxon said.

  They dismissed the council and all the respected member of the council went with him in their holy chamber. This is the first time when they all were allowed to go there.

  They tested every word written in that diary as well as every word of the audio clip that was inside that diary, with the truth detector, only to find that everything was correct. They are happy on the basis of Aleina's word that they all got a chance to fight against the evil which wanted to take away all the hope they had. They all are overwhelmed.

  "Okay. So, you were right. But what is his ability and where we can find him," head of their defense committee, Acto asked.

  "Answer to all of your question is mentioned here. Just you all should read about this mysterious person and then we should decide about our next strategy," Aleina said.

  "Allright. Let's do it," All were agreed.

  They made many copies of diary, so that everyone who were there can read the diary at once and then they can decide what they want to do. After turning some pages, one member doubted that there is something awkward with this diary. She asked about this to Aleina.

  "This is because this diary is not written by any conventional method, but he used his mind to write about all the incident that happened and how he came out with that situation," Aleina said.

  "How," someone asked.

  "Whatever he could have thought, that was getting wrote there by itself. That's why this diary contains his feeling and actions both. It describes completely who he was, and how he fought," Aleina.

  "Huh... Interesting... You have a lot of information about him..." everyone started to appraise Aleina.

  "Well, that's a lot to take in, at once. By the way, how do you know all this," someone else asked.

  "Because I have already read this whole diary as well as listened the audio clip," Aleina said.

  "Whatever you say, you are too brave and intelligent," one more compliment.

  "Yeah, she is," someone from them told having smile on his face.

  Aleina just smiled and they started reading diary.

  "There is also something written on cover."

  Hello, my name is Mark Raynson, or it used to be. I was born on Earth, a planet that resides around 25,000 light year away from the center of Milky way galaxy. I don't know what the people of Earth call me now. That is a mystery. If anyone reading this diary, I understand that you will not believe the things written here, but just take my words - Everything is a fact that actually happened. Maybe you can't recognize the incident mentioned here because you didn't feel it but this all is real. Our universe is in danger and I am leaving this diary.

  This is my life. All the incidents, I passed through is mentioned here. After reading you may understand the conclusion. I know that you will go through this diary only, when you will feel how much dangerous the upcoming invasion could be. If you are aware about all this, I believe you will try to contact me. I need your help and maybe you will also need some help. But here mentioned incidents are not normal or the one which happens on regular basis. You will have to go through everything to realize the intensity of threat.

  I know, you are intelligent, brave and always tried to save the universe, but something happened with me that is too mysterious to solve. If you can understand this or able to draw any conclusion, meet me in Canyon cave. I will be waiting for you. I believe that if you could able to find this diary, you can also find Canyon cave. I live there, and I may need your help. But, first understand what I am trying to say here. This is important.

  "I believe that he understands what we are in, and he is the only one able to help everyone." - Aleina said.

  "Maybe, he can be our last hope to tear apart the dark that is spread everywhere and make a glow to shine through it," Asco, a member of Aleina’s team, said.

  "Yeah, maybe you are not wrong, and we will find out. But, if you are right, then we will see a new sun shine and even if you are wrong, what more can we lose. Let's first read his diary," Piro, another team member, told.

  "Okay. Let's do it," Asco shook his head showing that he is agreed.

  CHAPTER 2

  Fear of Dar

  k

  10th April 10,005 (Earth's calendar)

  It is just a normal day in the wind of terror. We all are silent. Everything stops suddenly and gets lost with the wind. We have Sun like older times and nature too. We got to learn what is happiness, by studying many historical books, but we can't feel this. This is beyond us. We left our soul apart and lost it somewhere, where we can’t go ever. It may be us… our race… a whole mankind, who might have thought to make everything happier and peaceful, but it doesn’t seem right. We feel like we are missing the strings which kept us tied to that place… where happiness lives forever but that place is forbidden for us now. We chose to leave that place and swear to never go there again. It hurts, but we don’t have choice because we chose to leave that place, but not by our own will.

  We were forced to take that decision and we took it unwillingly, and we let the darkness to surround us. We forgot to come out, and darkness took us in its realm. We lost our path. We just hoped that one day light will show itself to us and we will figure out a way to find our path again in the shadow of light, but it didn’t. Now, we live in dark and don’t care about anything. We forgot, what it was like to live… to live with hope, when we had the courage to face the darkness and terror that shows itself in dark.

  We live in post - apocalyptic world where we were able save some part of Earth, so that we all could survive. We live but just to face the terror. Our situation is worse than what you can think or imagine, and we all have left the hope to live. Just we live on Earth, and this is a lot. In fact, we don't want to survive any more. We want to leave our planet anyhow, even by taking the risk of death, except that we can't.

  Maybe we seem to enjoy the world but just for the sake of living. We are broken internally and with each passing day, we all gets drown a little more, but only to suffer and not to die. It may seem unimaginable and unreal, but this is us on the glance of pain and suffering. We just dream to take world and everyone living here to take to new future where glory and life could await us. It looks much better in dreams and may be some of us wants it to happen in real life, too. Others also have left dreaming and thinks that it is impossible. We just hope to lose the string for even a single moment and go somewhere to learn the meaning of our existence.

  We feel like our creator couldn't have send us just to suffer here. There must be some other way around, just we don't know. We all feel this some time that all of our life has some goal to fulfil, but when we wake up in morning, it all remains as usual. We wake up every-day in same condition where living is liability. If this thing is getting out of your way, I understand. I know this all is like that we live somewhere in virtual reality or sent inside some game to suffer for eternity. But trust me, this all is very much real and happening with us right now.

  Sometimes, we feel the cold wind when it passes by us, touching our very inner soul and then we just think if we could get some moment like this by any means, maybe if time would stop with this moment, so that we could live in peace. When we can enjoy the morning sunshine, cool wind, flowing of the river and its clean transparent water, that we still have and maybe we can get our time back like that we had around 8000 years ago, when we own-self called for disaster and misery. Current situation looks difficult to survive when we got company of powerful alien civilization which is very much supportive for making our life extremely miserable.

  We are losing our pride with each passing day. By now, it has become our compulsion
to see our planet like this and we still are its part. I guess, this is the curse we still have, of perhaps past life. It looks difficult to even pray for God, due to losing so much of our precious time in despair. Will we have to suffer this forever… or will we get some way? We just hope if one day, someone will come to release us from this living hell.

  It all started around 7000 year ago when we had everything. A well habitable planet to live… nature full of river, oceans and different beautiful looking landscape. The time we remember and watch in dreams, when there was wide range of creature spread everywhere which were adding the beauty into everything. We still have anger on humans of earlier age. They had some ups and downs, but they were living in heaven as what we call today of their time. We just want to get that moment back one day. They lived their most part of life in peace and in between the beauty of nature, but time had to change and so our fate.
