Do you imagine a world where everything was fall apart, destroyed and nothing left?
Will you live in that world of nothingness?
[ September 26, 2025 ]
The American Science Association found out that the world is now in perish. Atmosphere is starting to disappear, polluted air is starting to cover the sky. The sun's radiation is starting to enter on our Earth's surface, burning everything that it touches. American Science Association, and the National Army starting to conduct some research on how they will solve this crisis.
" The earth is in danger! We need to act quickly or else people will be wipe out by that radiation! ",
The general said,
" There's only one way how we can stop this crisis sir! ",
One scientist said,
One scientist explain that, if they can build a technology that can absorb the sun's radiation just like how solar panel works, they can stop the crisis plus they can use it as unlimited source of energy. The general agree to it, and immediately told the president the project. The president didn't waste any time and approved the project quickly.
For over two years, they built the massive energy container that will absorb and contain the sun's radiation, convert it into energy and the world will now have infinite source of energy. They named it, APOLLO—the name of the god who hold the sun and has the sun's power—after they built it, they immediately uses it and absorb the sun's radiation that burning anything in the earth.
Using the technology, they redirect the radiation's light and focus it to the solar panel that connected to the APOLLO.
" Oh god, i can't believe it the APOLLO is really absorbing and containing it!! ",
One scientist said,
" Right! Now we can tell the people to use now any appliances they have, gadgets and anything that needed energy! ",
The general said.

Because of the energy container, everyone in the world become users of the APOLLO. They used everything they have in full power, of course with risk. But, America doesn't just used it for their technologies, but they also used the energy to build some high-tech weapons that can literally destroy even a whole continent. American Science Association and National Army decided to built some nuclear weapons using the APOLLO'S energy, because they found out that the sun's energy is something powerful to hold, and use in something that can put them in the top.
But, there's one country who's against at their want. A country that want the APOLLO to be their property, it was the country of North Korea—the nation known for their powerful nuclear weapons and strict rules—they want the APOLLO to be use on their weapons too, and create something more powerful, enough to conquer a big country like Russia and America. They started a war against America and it happens for over a year.
[ May 1, 2028 ]
The war continues, everything in America was destroyed, California, Texas, and even New York City was destroyed too. North Korean's keep on pushing towards the location of the APOLLO in Canada, American's continue on defending and stopping them, but while they doing that. A group of Korean's is successfully sneaked inside of the APOLLO. They starting planting some bombs inside, and preparing it for a huge explosion that will happen in matter of minutes.
" If we can't use them, then no one will! ",
A Korean said on his language,
They thought exploding the whole APOLLO is the right decision to stop everyone on using it, but its not. As the whole APOLLO exploded, the radiation of it start to scattered around the world with the explosion. People's fighting outside of the APOLLO got poisoned by the radiation and burned them until they become fleshes and ashes.
American Science Association and National Army already predicted this kind of action, that's why they built a technology allowing the world to have a doubled layer on the sky. It covers all the world's continents except ocean and small islands. Its like a huge platform that AI built, it came with structures that people can live now. Before the explosion, the National Army already informed all the allied countries to evacuate and took them in the Doubled Layered Land.
From this year, the world is not just has one land, but two more landscape dividing the world into three. Blessed World—where peoples with popularity, Fame, Wealth, and even position on old world is living in this land, they also had all the high-tech technologies and the source of energy, the sun—second is, Middle World—where communist or normal peoples are living in this land, all the mid technologies are in here, and they just using it for their everyday lives—third is, Underworld—where poor peoples, thrown criminals, and scavenger's are living. This is the old world where all peoples are living before, it was the sacred land that has been destroyed by the radiation. Scrap technologies and Steam like technologies can be found here—these three worlds is dividing not just the world, but also the peoples living in the earth.
[ Year 3000 ]
A sudden explosion appears in the Middle World, a group of mutated and radiated mouse is attacking the center city. Peoples is getting killed, structure's are falling apart, and the rampage continue until next morning. The Blessed World immediately take some action, they send some peoples wielding some weird looking weapons. Those weapons are emitting the sun's energy, they jump off from Blessed World to Middle World to save the city that has been attacked.
[«60% energy output has been used»]
" Alright! Everyone grab your A-TECH! And let's finish the job quickly! ",
A man with bulking metallic armor, with some gold pallets on its side, plus a energy like cape that coming out from his back. He was wielding a battle-axe weapon made of technology, it seems like he was using the sun's energy to powered the weapon.
" You filthy mouses! Meet your death!! ",
The man scream, swinging his battle-axe in the air,
" TECTONIC—CLUSTER!!!! ",
The man screamed loudly,
He smashes his weapon in the ground, and it immediately release a massive impact waves that send away all the mutated mouses away from his position. Another person comes down, it was a woman with a bright silky brown hair, tied in ponytail and wearing a leather coat with silver light armor on her top. She wielding a bow made of technology with bright yellow energy that flowing inside of her bow.
" Captain, you can't just jump on the battlefield without any support! ",
The woman said,
She point her arrows towards the group of mouses, she release it that it flew so fast. Mouses didn't see it, and it unknowingly become a rain of arrows without any explanation. The mouses' is starting to scream in agony, getting stab by those burning silver arrow. The woman land besides the captain, and point her arrows again on her surrounding. More peoples with weapon technology comes down the Blessed World to fight off the hordes of mouses, they killed them without any mercy, wiping out the whole hordes like they are piece of garbages.
From this era, the world not just evolve or advanced, but they change how the world should be working. Normal peoples before who's just working with normal jobs, is now doing some heroic act, hunting mutated animals and creatures that lingering or wandering in the Underworld. They called themselves, 'Scavengers'—a group of peoples who blessed by the sun's power with extraordinary ability that can fuse on their weapon of choices. Guilds has been form, fraction has been created by peoples who have different goals on using their sun's blessing.
Because of the sudden increasing of peoples who want to become Scavengers, the government immediately take action and created a organization where they will handle all the Scavengers. They called it also, 'APOLLO Scavenger Association'—an organization that handling the scavenger's rights, they ordering them on what to do, releasing some quest that people will take to get some precious rewards. All this has been built in Blessed World and Middle World.
While in Underworld, there's no rules on becoming Scavengers. People here do what they want, and take whatever they want to take. People here are criminals living with their lives, people that has been thrown by society, who rejected by peoples from above, and even old peoples who once lives and made legacy above the Underworld.
[ Year 3005]
In a town where inventor and smiths are living, there's a old man named, Beker—an old blacksmith who once creating some weapon technology before from Blessed World, he got framed up by making a deadly machine and got thrown out the Blessed World—he is now owning a weapon and tools shop, with a kid named, Shinba.
" Old geez, what do you think of this weapon i created!? ",
Shinba said, showing a sword made out of scrap metals from Middle World.
It has an appearance of a sword, but more likely a scrap metals that he patched together. With gears, metal sheet, and some broken foot of a chair.
" No Shin, that's not even a weapon ",
Beker said,
" Why don't you just guard the front desk for me, and wait for customers ",
Beker said more.
" I ain't gonna sit and watch that front desk! I want to become like you old geez! ",
Shinba said, and run away from the store.
Shinba is a kid that living inside of Beker shop. He adopted Shinba when he was a baby that has been trapped inside of pile of metals. Becker doesn't know why and how he got there, but he immediately save him and take care of him. Shinba has a huge imagination and creativity when it comes on inventing some weird looking stuff.
" He doesn't value all my work, someday i will prove him that i can create something more destructive that will lead the whole Underworld to the top! ",
He said, while staring at the sparking stars above.
Back in Becker shop, Becker is arranging some materials for his new weapon that he will make later. Suddenly, a young man appears in the door, holding a silver sword made entirely of scrap metals. It was, Shino—Shinba's brother—he was a known hero at their town, protecting them to those mutated animals and creatures that lingering around their town.
" Let me guess, Shin is still doing some crappy works right? ",
Shino said.
" Yes, just ignores his work you always encouraging him to build something, even tho its suck ",
Becker said.
" You know how huge that kid's imagination when it comes on inventing some stuff, he has potential, Father ",
Shino smile, and sit beside him.
" I know that, but i want him to focus on something that he will like forever, inventing some stuff is not good for a kid like him...",
Becker said.
" Even tho we all know that, he has that kind of power ",
Shino said, this makes the atmosphere around the shop changed.
" That weird magnetic-like power of Shinba? No no, i would never let him use that again ",
Becker said, standing up.
" But, the way he built this weapon of mine using just scrap metals and stuff around him, is something magnificent ",
Shino said,
On a pile of scraps, blue lights comes out. Spiraling around the middle of junkyard. Shinba was inside of it, touching the ground and emitting a weird looking blue energy around him. Junk and scrap metals is floating around him, fusing on each other and creating something using those trash.
" Just imagine a hammer, come on! Shinba think more! ",
Shinba keeps on imagining a sledge hammer with something like energy booster on its side. As he keeps on thinking or imagining the weapon, all the junk around him start fusing and slowly forging the weapon he imagining right now.
" RECONSTRUCT! ",
He screamed, and then the light explodes revealing the sledge hammer with a unsuccessful appearance. Lights disappear immediately.
