Deka walks down to her lab room in her basement with a coffee in her hands.

She sat down in her chair with exhaustion.
She bent over to drink some coffee and stared off at the tiny cube of glass, glistening full of stars and purple colors.

The cube was something Deka spent her life working on, it was something mystical and unknown, but she learned how to use it to create.

She wasn't sure if any other human had their hands on the fluid form of PE-BLTL energy, she was getting close to showing the world her discovery and progress.

She discovered this energy from a never-before-seen asteroid in the shape of a cube which is now holding her creation.

Deka was a very smart individual with an interest in science and chemistry; mainly all things involving the world around her. She got rejected from being a professional scientist because of sexist views at a young age.

She made sure she would never have to depend on men ever for her to pursue her passion. So she got the money from college and bought a house and tools.

She turned her basement into her lab and works in it daily. She's worked on project after project, failing on some and completing most.

Before the asteroid hit the earth, she had been working on a project to possibly turn energy into fluid form; Like light or heavy gas that you couldn't see, but can use. She didn't know if it was possible, but she found a way.

She thought that would forever be her biggest achievement ever, but she was wrong in so many ways.

Her computer quickly turns on with a WARNING notification appearing! Deka rushed to the computer and looked at what was wrong.
"VIRUS! AFFECTING THE SYSTEM," She read.

There was a virus eating off the system it warned.

Deka sends out a bot to take care of the virus by terminating it. She gets an instant error; The bot had failed and the virus had already taken over it! She sends out five more bots hoping this will work... but she gets back a reply that the bots were corrupted.

Deka gets frustrated and sends out 200 more bots!
"This has to work," She thought, hoping it would.

The feedback takes a second longer to reply as, "5... 20... 50... 100... 160... 200," were corrupted!

Her heart drops. "What in Merry's name?" She was speechless.
She knew something serious was happening, this virus wasn't good, it wasn't normal. She was afraid it would corrupt the whole system and quickly pressed the restart button to last saved a year before.
"ERROR! I CAN NOT FIND THE FILE YOU ARE LOOKING FOR," It said. She panics and looks at her folder of where the data would all be saved, but everything was gone! "No!" She cried out. "How did this happen? What's happening?!" She was confused and scared.

It was her life's work, and she was afraid she was about to lose it all. She quickly rushes to her spectating chair, where she could spectate around the universe inside the cube in a physical form to the world as she pleased, just like VR but it was a reality for some. She sits down and connects the helmet to her head, connecting it to her brain. She closes her eyes and takes a deep breath.

The machine takes control and shuts her senses off, as all of her senses are transferred into this new reality.

She wakes up inside a body of her choosing, in a black suit with a helmet of reflecting mirrors.

She could do anything in this world, she was more than a God.

She tracks down the location of where the virus was born, hoping she can find its source.
She heads down to Universe Bay, noticing that the world was slowly disappearing out of existence farther and farther. It scared Deka, she didn't know what was happening to her world.
She quickly rushes to where it started and finds the flower full of stars.

She goes to grab it, but her hand goes right through, not affecting it at all!

The young girl slowly walks up to Deka, curious about Deka's interest in her flower.

Deka looked around herself and noticed the young girl.

"Hello..?" Deka said, suspicious.

The girl wasn't a part of the world, she must've been the source, Deka thought.
"How did you get here?" Deka asked.

The girl didn't answer but stared at Deka curiously. "You need to stop this at once! You're destroying my Universe!" Deka fused.

Again the girl did not reply.

"Talk to me!" Deka exclaimed.

It frightened the girl as she put her hand out to protect herself!

She formed a wave force pushing Deka back almost off her feet!

Deka felt threatened and quickly formed a rock to hit her!

The girl dodged and knew Deka was for sure a threat.

The girl slowly flew up a few feet to show her dominance.

But Deka wasn't having it!

Deka enlarges herself as she grows bigger than a whale!

Deka throws her fist to hit the girl but the girl quickly dodges in the air and zooms into Deka!

The force pushed Deka onto her backside!

Deka grows even slower and grows larger than planets as planets have a full view of her everything!

Deka goes in to hit the girl and hits her to the bottom of Universe Bay!

Deka slowly picks her fist up and looks for the girl but can't find her.

She feels something on her fist and looks, it was the girl!

The girl flies at Deka, zooming towards her face!

Deka pulls her left hand in for the safety of her face as the girl zooms through her hand!

"Augh!" Deka screeches in pain!

Deka backs away in shock but the girl hasn't had enough!

She quickly flies and hit's Deka's forehead!
Knocking Deka down to the ground of Universe Bay.

Deka turns back to her normal size as she takes in the pain her body is processing.

"What the hell is that thing??" She was scared.

That creature was much too powerful for Deka, but Deka had to figure something out.

Deka Gets up and flies away, retreating.

Deka went to the tree of Unity, where it would collect all of the data of every atom, every minute of the history of the universe gathering within the roots traveling all around the universe.

The data is what she needed to restart the universe; but it had been tampered with, she suspected.

She finds the tree of unity covered in cold white snow.
She looked at the roots as there was no color, and Secrets Of The Universe was nowhere to be found nor the guardian!

It had been plucked from the roots it grew on.

She knew someone took it, but how could they have gotten through the storm?

She decides to track down the person who had touched the data and guardian last.

It all pointed to one person, near Janwarchod.
So Deka traveled to the location of the suspect and looked.
She found a group of bodies floating in space off-planet, dead or either suffocating from the space dust.

One of these people was them.
Deka walks over as if her feet were on the ground, staring at her arm's device telling her where the person is. She gets close and looks in front to where it says they were located.

She sees Rick slowly and painfully suffocating from the space dust with a girl in his arms.
The girl had a helmet on protecting her from the space dust; She was the one.
