The ground started to rumble. Elijah saw Khalia standing there trembling, Orwan petrified, Perria shivering, Catie was terror-stricken, Gael looked horrified and Andel couldn't even move the slightest as he was in complete shock.

Reuter laughed and said, "You see this!? This, all of this, is all because of you my dear! You are the reason why this is happening! Your whole existence, your whole being born is a big prodigy ever made after all!"

Everyone was shocked to see that behind Reuter, were walking all Humans, Animals, all the living beings from each corner of the Earth. Their eyes were completely coded with the color yellow. And their entire body was surrounded by a sparkly yellow beam of light. All of them were walking towards Elijah and the others.

"You see now? This is the result of what you have done. And hence humans will create their own apocalypse!" smiled Reuter.

Elijah with a terrified tone said, "G-guys what the heck is goin-" He then heard a loud flash of lightning thunder with reverberation and a big shock wave appeared and saw himself in a place where he thought was somewhere else.

A lady suddenly ran towards him and said, "Sir! Sir! Please sir you must help my baby! She's d-dying... Please, Sir! It's just a b-baby she can't die just yet. Please you must-..."

"Elijah! Wake up!"

"I am very sorry to say this but I am not a doctor Miss. I can't help you..."

"P-Please just help her-.." The lady couldn't speak anymore as she collapsed suddenly onto the floor. Before she collapsed he caught the baby and checked for the lady's pulse. She had no vital signs. Before he knew it, she was dead. Yet, she survived to keep her baby alive.

"Elijah!! Wake the heck up!!

"What in the world..." Elijah was terrified as he saw the humans lying as millions of corpses on the land and that there were no buildings, no mountains, and no houses. It was more like an empty wasteland. The thunder with a blue shockwave suddenly appeared again and this time he saw millions of skeletons lying around. The thunder kept on going over and over again making his vision a bit blurry. He then looked down to his palm, the baby he was holding was dispersed into ashes, and his hands were turned into skeletal hands.

"...THE HECK IS GOING ON?" Elijah screamed.

"ELIJAH!" Catie shouted.

"Humans create their own apocalypse..." said Elijah while his eyes were closed and he was just about to wake up.

"Huh..?" Both Catie and Andel looked at Elijah in a confusing way to what he just said.

Elijah stretched and suddenly looked at their surprised faces and asked, "W-what? Did I do something wrong? Why do you both look so confused all of a sudden?"

"You- You just said.." replied Andel.

"What? What did I say? Man, you guys look so shocked. It's almost funny."

"You just said 'Humans create their own apocalypse'," said Catie.

"What? Did I say that? And I just had this weird dream... I don't know, I just forgot what I dreamt just now... And ah my headaches."

"Well, it's normal for humans to forget their dreams once they wake up. For an idiot like you, that's expected. Ah well whatever, Andel I think Elijah is just losing his marbles from drinking too much wine yesterday and was just dreaming something stupid that cause him to say that." sighed Catie.

"Yeah probably," said Andel as he facepalmed.

"Yeah yeah, like you guys dream better stuff when you sleep." taunted Elijah.

"Well then stop dreaming already! It's your turn on the lookout now! Go!" ordered Catie.

"Yeah yeah alright alright. I am going."
