"You're crazy! Everyone knows that domestic cars are the best!"

In that second, the lights in the café dimmed. All the TVs simultaneously switched to the same channel. It showed some hands writing with navy blue-gold pen on a legal pad. They were illuminated by one of those piano lamps with a brass base and a green shade. The hands stopped writing and folded themselves.

"People of Earth, this voice will be translated to your mother tongue. I am banning electricity. It enables many sins to be performed. You all have 24 hours to use your precious electricity. I will let the electricity come back on when the world is worthy of it. Goodbye."

Then these really BIG guys came into the café. They were all in black. They whipped out pistols and shot my friends and me and our worlds faded into darkness.
