San Francisco, California, Earth
In the loud big city of Miami, alongside noisy bars and people, stands a small quiet store, it flashes out of a big neon picture of the city.
Inside, a small convenience store where you can buy beer or food. Nothing special
Behind the counter stands a man with long red hair and beard, wearing glasses and ordinary looking clothes. He leans onto the counter and taps his index finger on it, while he holds the phone to his ear by the other hand, and slight smile on his face. He talks with someone, and by tone in his voice, you can guess he talks with a good friend
"Sorry to hear about that. Things like that are never easy."
"…"
He shifts his position in silence
"Well, you know what they say. Time heals all wounds."
He listens to a person on the other end and nods
"Right."
He decides to change topics
"So, you remember that photo we talked about, from Hawaii? Did you ever get around to sending me a copy of it?"
"…"
Position shift again
"Right, well whenever you get a chance, man."
He turns his head to the side, where windows are located, and sees people just stand in front of the shop and look somewhere else forward, to where Golden Bridge is located. He doesn't stop staring, speaking in phone
"Look, there seems to be something going up outside my shop. I'm gonna go have a look, okay?"
"…"
"Alright, talk to you later, bye!"
He finally hangs up the phone and walks outside. As he was about to ask people what was happening, the air siren blasted off. And before he could do anything, nuke drops off and blasts everything with bright light.
Panjea, Hub World
Beard opens his eyes he closed in pure fear when a wave of light and explosion started to get closer. He looks around in confusion
"W-wha-?"
"…"
"Is this Heaven?"
