The first to wake was the smartest, the second his best - and only - friend. He quickly deduced what had happened, and cursed the only other that had truly loved him. He screamed the name into the toxic wind, cursing him for leaving him. For dying for him.
For leaving him to this infected land.
His only friend sat and watched as the man screamed till his throat went raw and his heart was shattered. Only then did he come forward and pick up the crushed remains. He dried the tears, cleaned the blood away and wiped the dust of his face.
Together they walked into the battlefields.

The third to awake was a solider. The fourth woke seconds later the fifth not to far behind him. The brothers were confused and angry, shouting at the heavenly partner, demanding to know what had happened.
When he told them, they mourned. Many tears fell that night, for the lost and damned souls, that were forever condemned for a life of suffering.
They swore revenge on those that destroyed the only home they have.
On the beasts that ate the flesh of fallen humans.
On the monsters that dared to hunt down and kill their family.
They swore they would take back what belonged to them and kill anything that got in their way.
They would not fall. They never fail.
-S.U.P.E.R.W.H.O.L.O.C.K-
The sixth was never asleep. He felt hat had happened deep in his bones. He knew immediately what had happened. Tears of grief pooled in his eyes. He knew that another world had been destroyed. He took his companion and escaped from the world they were on, only to arrive on a planet that had been permanently broken. When his traveling companion stepped out, she took in the battle field. She questioned the man, wanting to know, to understand. The man didn't turn, he stared out at the planet he loved as their tears fell onto the dry, cracked ground. He turned his head, looking over his shoulder at the young woman. His mouth opened but nothing came out.
Then he spoke, his voice breaking through the silence:
"Welcome, to the New Age"
