In a university computer lab it was pretty quiet, but for Alan, a 21-year-old. He's wearing headphones, where the music playing is the only thing he's listening to and helping him focus on his latest college project.
He is creating for his project for a course he is paying for, a small drone, the various parts that Alan is currently using came from various places, purchased or even taken from other electronics that were no longer working.
Following the style of the song, the boy connects the wires, solders what needs soldering and connects what needs to be connected. All connected to a small microcontroller, which is connected to a radio board. There is where the control signals, which will be sent by the remote control, will be received by the small drone.
With the project theoretically ready, Alan prepares for his first test. He eagerly picks up his controller and turns it on. Slowly... The drone he was building takes off, but unfortunately not for long as it quickly flies into a wall and crashes into it.
‘I should have done the test outside, and also better calibrated the force with which the drone can move. You should see the schedule for that later.' Even with this flaw, Alan is quite happy. The project is practically done, and he can rub it in the face of his teacher who always picks on him.
The boy calmly walks towards his drone, to pick it up and see if he ended up not breaking anything very important. But before he can get close to the drone, a noise like an explosion is heard and part of the roof falls on the poor machine.
Alan falls back, coughing from the dust that now permeates the place and alarmed by what is happening. He pulls out the headset, and hears pandemonium raging outside. People screaming and cars honking. The first thing the young man thought of was a terrorist attack, but the sounds of an explosion, not exactly that, but something like that, are heard above all.
Fearing that the rest of the structure of the building where he is located could fall on him, Alan gathers his things as quickly as possible and turns towards the exit door. Which he finds blocked by the rubble of the roof and part of the wall on the upper floors that has collapsed and fallen on the annexe.
Very alarmed Alan starts screaming for help. But the noises of people screaming everywhere drown out Alan's screams. The boy looks up, hoping that the ceiling that was left wasn't close to collapsing too. What he sees in this case is a great opening. And several cracks, the best he could do in this situation was to try to escape through the windows, but they were too narrow to let him through.
His thoughts are interrupted by loud sounds. Several explosions followed. Looking at the open space of the roof, the young man saw something that he considered impossible with all his strength. Two humanoid beings were in the sky. One was a humanoid mass that appears to be made of shadow and smoke. From the creature's eyes, a wicked red light emanates from them.
The other creature looks more human, but its body is covered in white flames. The flames coat its body and form a flaming wolf's head atop the person's or creature's head. The boy does not know if the individual he is observing is human.
Alan tries to get out of the room as quickly as possible, but the door is jammed with rubble and part of the roof and bricks that have collapsed. The young man curses his luck under his breath, and runs under a table, hoping that the worst will happen. The boy doesn't see what's happening outside, but by the noises the fight is getting more and more intense and the two beings seem closer and closer. Taking a little risk, he looks at the ceiling, the two beings move very quickly, flashes light up the sky.

When the 'white wolf', that's the name Alan gave the humanoid wrapped in white flames, raises his hand and quickly pulls it down, it's like he's pulling something. Then what seems to be the case, as several meteorites begin to cross the atmosphere quickly with their arrival point being the creature of shadows.
Alan lowers himself back onto the table, praying that he can survive, the boy was cowering while the noises of the asteroids colliding with the creature did not stop, with each new impact explosion, the young man cowered with his belongings under the table that was your only protector.
With each new impact, Alan fearfully hopes that one of them will fall to the ground and the shock waves will eventually destroy his building. After a long time the explosions finally stop, the young man gathers some courage to observe what is happening. The 'White Wolf' still in the air, looking at the ground, in his hand is a great golden axe. Alan hopes the fight is over, but it looks like things won't be that simple.
A black pillar emerges from the ground into the sky, the daylight seems a little weaker, through the windows and Alan notices a kind of smoke spreading everywhere from the center of the pillar. The shadow creature emerges, but unlike this time, it is emanating more smoke, and around it strange symbols appear around the creature.
With some terror, Alan realizes that whatever the smoke touches, it consumes, leaving nothing. The 'White Wolf' seems to see the danger coming from the other creature, as he too assumes a similar form, a pillar of white emanates from the being, white flames run wild.
The boy looks terrified at the two monsters, all that danger and that wasn't the best of them. He hears a strange noise, not loud or quiet. Alan doesn't even know if he can classify it as sound, or anything he's ever seen or heard or felt, almost as if it were all of those things and nothing at the same time.
Alan looks up at the sky, in the direction of the 'noise'. Purple scars cover most of the sky, they open up more and more, as if something is tearing the space itself apart. In the tear, the boy saw something that will forever be etched in his memory. Lights of different colors and tones intertwine in this new 'space', forming a tapestry of colors and lights like some kind of kaleidoscope, several points of light form different patterns, like some constellation, but also something bigger.
The boy notices that the 'White Wolf' does something with his hands and several symbols appear at the edges of the tear, preventing the scar from increasing in size and swallowing the world. A chill takes over the boy when he realizes that the smoke that exhales from the creature is very close. They hit the wall of the building where he is and start running the structure.
Sensing danger approaching, Alan moves as far away as possible. Even though Alan is not religious, he prays to any being that is listening to let him out of this situation alive, promising to any god that is listening that he would format the memory of his computer.
But nobody answered, and as if the world was making fun of him, a dimensional crack begins to open near where he was. It started small, but gradually opened up more. Alan backs away from the crack and screams like he's never screamed before.
With his bag in hand, the boy just prays for the best as the walls that separate him from the corrosive smoke fade away more and more. The 'White Wolf' seems to hear the desperate boy's cry. He looks directly at Alan. He looks like he wants to do something and then gives up, flying quickly towards the boy.
The relief of being rescued is suddenly broken when a few meters away from his rescuer, the creature of shadows attacks the 'White Wolf' and throws the boy away. Towards the spatial rift that keeps getting bigger.
The last thing Alan sees before falling into that unknown location is the face full of energy of the 'White Wolf', the eyes emit golden flames of power, with a scar that crosses his right eye in flames.
As if there were no more gravity or forces holding him to the world, Alan feels lulled as further and further away from a small crack that would lead him home. The boy sees himself in an empty space. Wandering aimlessly, in the distance, a kind of gigantic kaleidoscope reflects light, creating a multicolored panel.
Light travels from place to place, and in the middle of everything, far away, in the middle of all those colors, but far from all of them. Seven towers, a larger one in the center and six circular ones. They seem residual, they give off a terrifying feeling even being so far away.
Alan realizes that he is falling, and with him are his lab items. In the distance other things are 'leaking' from your world as well. A part of the lights traveling near it are attracted to it. Alan doesn't feel anything, just a numb feeling. As he slowly falls into the limbo between realities.
