The beginning of th end

“Wake up, wake up” I heard a chilly voice in my head. I opened my eyes, my skin was burning and at that moment I felt a warm sensation through my body, all of this came from this big shiny ball in the sky. I was amazed, because I couldn't clearly remember how do I got into here, yesterday everything was so different but now suddenly green little things start to raise from the ground, feeling them by my feet. From above between the big shiny ball and me, they were appearing many different shapes and from all sizes that danced with the force of the wind. I turned around and saw so many different things that weren’t before, like these big rocks from where this beautiful waterfall came down reflecting the brightness of the shiny big ball. I noticed I wasn’t alone and that I shared this land with many different living things like me. Later that day I saw other animals hurting what I thought it was beautiful, I approached to them and I asked, “Why are you hurting the environment around us, don’t you think this is beautiful or what’s wrong about it?” The others animals stared at me with a threatening look and responded “We are afraid from all this new things that weren’t before, maybe this new things are bad for us and can hurt us”. I didn’t understand why they were so afraid about it and I tried to explain them that all this things were the creation of what I felt was a higher power, but they replied to me with laughs and didn’t care what I told to them and they continued messing around with the new things that were appearing to what I call land. Later, the ball in the sky was in another place than when I first saw it when I woke up, “How could that happen?” I didn’t knew but what really took my attention were the balls that started to fall from the sky, around them was something rare that was red and created a lot of heat. Many of the other creatures were exposed to these giant red balls and died because of them, many of the ones that were messing around hurting the habitat to be specific, just a few survived from that group. I just lay down and tried to sleep, the big shiny ball was gone but another one more small appear, but this one brought coolness and a less bright light.


“Wake up, don’t let them damage the nature, too much help was the one I gave to you, wake up”. What! Again?, this voice... maybe...just maybe could be….yes it has to be. Later that day I understood all, I run toward the place where the few animals survived and told them again to respect the place, I explained them that what happened yesterday was a punish to the ones who hurt the environment, and that could happen again for those who attempt to do it again. All creatures understood my explanation. I went to my place, watched the view and before the big shiny ball came out I lay down and slept again. Never again I heard again the voices.
