『It was supposed to be instantaneous.
Fire was supposed to rain down from the heavens and seep up from the earth. The oceans were supposed to rise, breaking through the clouds and crashing down on the land below. There was supposed to be chaos, then peace; noise, then silence. The days flew by, drawing ever closer to December 21, 2012, and people panicked. Some crossed hundreds of miles to congregate and pray, while others came together for ritualistic suicide. The clock struck 12, and everyone waited.
Nothing happened. The skies remained clear, and the oceans stayed calm. It'd been just a hoax, something not unlike the Y2K bug in the late 1990s, and life continued. There was no apocalypse, no collapse of the world; just the silly ancient Mayans and their faulty calendar.
No one thought that what was perceived to be the end would actually be the beginning.』
