Chapter 7

In a world far far away.

It was a mess.

Planets shattered, stars dying, galaxies colliding and entire universe drifting apart.

It was beautiful to look at.

Of course the residents may not think so but as with all things, it's a matter of perspective.

Right at the edge of this world, where infinity meets it's end, was a titanic creature.

This humanoid being seemed to have merged into the surrounding darkness while casually sitting in the empty void.

Closer examination would show that it seemed to be staring at something while making frequent and seemingly random gestures with it's 'hands'. The exact details of what it's up to was perhaps known only to itself.

A keen observer, however, would note that everytime the creature makes a random gesture the world around it would respond in kind. Sometimes a stable galaxy would spontaneously collapse in on itself and other times a dying star would suddenly revive.

This kept happening for a really really, emphasis on really, long time until suddenly it looked like someone hit pause on reality.

Everything was frozen in place with no movement whatsoever and by everything, I mean everything. From electrons to molecules, photons and all radiation. Everything was stuck in place.

This persisted until all was reversed and suddenly the world was collapsing on itself.

Light travelled backwards, gravity was overturned and an irresistible force started pulling everything towards the center of the world.

This immense pulling force was so strong that that super massive black holes with a mass of billions of tons accelerated from 0 to beyond the speed of light near instantly.

This huge acceleration caused all matter to start rapidly disintegrating. By the time they got to the source of the attraction, even subatomic particles had been broken down.

The immense force kept pulling and compressing all the base particles towards itself. An entire world was broken down and compressed to a nebula with a width of several million light years.

The nebula kept on contracting to the size of the milky way Galaxy.

The pulling force still didn't stop. From a distance of light years, the nebula was compressed to the size of the solar system.

At this point the speed of contraction had significantly slowed down but not stopped.

A few eons later.

The nebula had been compressed to a stateless( solid, liquid and gaseous at the same time) mass several kilometers in diameter. The intense compression caused the mass to be so bright the sun would be like a firefly in comparison.

Several more eons later.

The stateless mass has been compressed to a point several millimeters in diameter, which is insane.

Picture all the planets, stars, asteroids, dust, gases, black holes, you name it, in the world compressed and packed to several millimeters.

This tiny point had reached a nearly infinite temperature and is so bright that the entire cold, dark and empty space is now a white hot void. The huge amount of compressed matter meant that the point was so dense and heavy that all of space and time was folded around itself which left nothing else beyond it.( Imagine a tiny sphere wrapped around in paper and placed on an empty plate. The paper is space-time and the empty plate is the world. Space and time will only affect the sphere but not the plate.)

(A/N: This is all fiction and I'm not a physicist. If anything doesn't add up let me know).

The millimeter wide point was still contracting extremely slowly.

3 millimeters.

2 millimeters.

1 millimeter.

Just as the diameter reduced to a single micrometer, the huge force that was acting on it suddenly disappeared.

Silence.

Everything was still for a while until suddenly there was a big

BAAAAAANG!!!
