VOIDFALL

In the depths of space, far from human eyes and maps, a secret spacecraft known as Atlas-7 was launched. It belonged to no nation, carried no flag, and answered no public authority. Built by powerful global organizations operating in silence, the vessel had one purpose alone: to find a new world before Earth reached the point of no return.

After years of drifting through endless darkness, bending through warped dimensions and slipping along invisible gravitational corridors Atlas-7 arrived at an uncharted planet known as Oryx. The world lay beneath thick black clouds, its skies stained red, its surface alive with a strange, pulsing energy unknown to human science. Scanners confirmed the impossible. Oryx could sustain life, and its resources rivaled, perhaps even surpassed, those of Earth.

The ship’s commander activated the transmitter and began sending an urgent report home. He spoke of hope beyond extinction, of a habitable world only five light years away. Before the message could be completed, the signal cut out.

A low, unnatural sound echoed through the corridors.

Then came the pounding.

Atlas-7 shuddered violently as something struck its hull from the outside. The silence that followed was heavy and suffocating. The crew advanced cautiously through the ship, weapons trembling in their hands. What emerged from the shadows defied reason massive black creatures with twisted bodies and glowing purple eyes, intelligent and hungry. Jagged fangs flashed as they attacked without hesitation. Within minutes, the crew was slaughtered, and Atlas-7 became a drifting tomb.

The creatures seized control of the vessel. With intelligence never anticipated, they activated its systems and set a course for Earth.

Upon arrival, they understood the truth. Earth was not merely habitable, it was ideal. A message was sent back to Oryx confirming that invasion was possible and resistance minimal. Yet the conquest did not begin with fire or armies. It began quietly.

The monsters infiltrated global organizations, replacing leaders, erasing entire teams, collapsing bases from within. The world did not realize it was under attack only that something was deeply wrong.

In the year 3000, a child named Jogo was born inside a hidden facility. From infancy, he displayed abnormal strength and a power no one could explain. His parents died in a incident before he turned one, and the truth of their deaths was buried forever. Jogo was raised not as a child, but as a project trained relentlessly in isolated military until he became a living weapon.

The organizations called him an instrument of peace.

Jogo possessed Core Energy, a rare force born from will and spirit itself, wielded by only a handful of humans. He was deployed wherever conflicts threatened global stability, eliminating threats with efficiency and silence.

When disappearances escalated and entire facilities went dark, one organization sensed something unnatural. They issued a single command.

Send Jogo.

He arrived at the site to find devastation blood soaked into shattered floors, walls torn apart, the air thick with death. Moving deeper into the ruins, he witnessed a sight that burned itself into his memory.

For the first time in his life, Jogo felt rage.

Core Energy erupted from within him as he lunged forward, obliterating the creature with a single blow. The impact echoed like a signal flare. From every direction.

The battle was relentless. Jogo fought without pause, tearing through them until none remained. When silence returned, he stood amid human bodies and monstrous alike. He understood then that he had not merely defended himself. He had opened the door to a war with no clear end.

As he withdrew to report the incident, something struck from behind. Death was seconds away.

A sudden blow crushed the creature’s skull.

An ordinary young man stood there, gripping a metal rod, his hands shaking. His name is Yuji, a boy from Tokyo. Despite possessing no Core Energy, he had killed the monster through sheer courage.

Jogo stared in disbelief.

Yuji explained that he had been raised by his father’s friend after his father’s death, trained to fight yet living without purpose. When asked why he intervened, Yuji answered simply he wanted to save him.

Jogo laughed for the first time in years, though unease lingered beneath it. This world showed no mercy to the weak. Still, he offered to train Yuji and reveal the truth behind the darkness consuming the world. Yuji accepted without hesitation. He had nothing left to lose.

That night changed everything.

They retreated to an abandoned base once owned by the organizations. Jogo pushed Yuji beyond his limits not just physically, but mentally. Fear, he believed, was the first gateway through which monsters entered the human soul.

Days passed, and something became clear. Yuji’s body adapted unnaturally fast. His wounds healed too quickly. His senses sharpened near danger.

Meanwhile, the invasion escalated. Wars ignited, societies fractured. Oryx sent its true commander to Earth Nergal, a being capable of controlling weak minds and feeding on terror itself. With his arrival, humanity’s balance of power shattered.

The organizations attempted to reclaim Jogo, but he refused. He would no longer be their weapon.

Yuji then revealed a secret hidden since childhood. Years ago, an unknown man had subjected him to a mysterious experiment, leaving a black mark on his chest. As danger approached, the mark began to glow.

In their first confrontation with Nergal, the truth was revealed.

Yuji was not a Core Energy user.

He was a vessel for Void Energy an ancient force older than both humans and monsters, It was this energy that allowed him to kill the monster during their first encounter.

But the power demanded a price.

Each time Yuji used it, he lost a fragment of his humanity, inching closer to something uncontrollable. Jogo understood then that saving the world was no longer his only mission. He had to save Yuji as well.

As Earth burned beneath an unseen war, humanity finally realized that the end would not come from disease or disaster but from forces far beyond its understanding.
