In the darkness, only with the little light of his weapon, Dan ranted against his bosses.

–How many chances are, that in another planet, another civilization had used the light of life, in the same way than in mine! –He said, as paced back and forth–. How’s it even possible that other beings lived just like us? About how much have they lied to me?

–Dani, –Started the girl who had been waiting in silence–. if the light didn’t belong to your world, what would it mean?

–Well, we took something that didn’t belong to us, but, well, if it didn’t belong to nobody else...

–I do not like to be agree with you, but you know, the river and the waterfall do not belong to anybody, neither to the other tribes, that does not mean they belong to the koleeu –Dan burst out laughing–. However my dad always said that life is above everything.

–In view of the current situation, that is contradictory.

Furious, he shot the glass of the door scaring the girl. Glasses scattered on the floor, allowing them to pass. They entered one after the other and watched more closely the little that was illuminated by the lamp. Suddenly Msi’ felt as if she had seen the place before, in a faraway and fuzzy dream. For his part, Daniel was looking for something to clear his ideas, so turned the light towards the papers on the floor and raised some, placed them on top of one of the desks and began to read them. The girl walked slowly over the place while he was still searching. Most of the documents that the young man read were simple petitions or mere protocols. He was about to give up when he read something strange.

–“Earth of Tomorrow’s project” –He murmured to himself.

Msi’ approached to the hollow in the center of the place, while Dan read aloud to her.

–"The purpose of the following document, is to announce the results of the investigations carried out under the orders of chancellor James Porter and the consequent decision of the council with regard to them. The tests and analyzes that were made, casted out, an imminent end of the natural resources of the planet. The generation, purification and supply of services such as water, light and oxygen has exceeded the limits. The power of the energy given by the light of life is insufficient to cover all the requirements, and the planet itself, has become unable to produce new resources on its own. Therefore it has been declared that planet C47 is in the process of... death. –The man's surprise was getting bigger.

She had ceased to listen now lost in her thoughts and knelt to approach the hole.

–Due to the above, the council has decreed the execution of the Earth of Tomorrow’s project, which consists on the transfer to a new planet of similar conditions, the... B18... Because of that will be selected only those people of social, cultural, political or economic importance to restart the development of the Terraria civilization”. What? –Dan looked up to find the girl when he saw her about to touch the edges of the hole–. Msi'!

The girl touched the metal that covered the entire surface and a flash push them both away, Daniel, who stayed blinded for a moment, rose as fast as he could and seeing her dazed on the other side of the laboratory rushed to help her.

–Msi'! Are you alright? –Asked, giving her a hand so she can sit up.

–Yes! That was incredible.

Suddenly a strange sound began to come out of all the devices, one by one the lights of the place turned on, just like the computers and finally the main screen began its processes with a soft feminine voice.

–"Welcome, please enter the password"

–Dani, what was that? –Asked the terrified girl as she clung tightly to the man's arm.

Daniel was in a complete shock, he could barely think, unable to answer his partner he got up talking unintelligible things.

–This can’t be, it's impossible, this confirms all my suspicions, it's a big lie!

–Dani, calm down, what are you talking about?

–Don’t you see it? They left, they destroyed the planet and then they left like rats! And the worst thing is that they left others behind, innocent people and as valuable as them.

–Daniel, you have to relax and think things through.

–Msi’, this world is the same as mine; nobody ever spoke of this, no one knows it, the light has given life to other planets and is able to reincarnate in humans, they not only lied to me. I have to find out what really happens.

Almost hysterical, Dan emerged from the laboratory and climbed the rope to the surface, followed by the girl. Ready to face the one who will answer, he hastened to initiate a communication to the LIFE, but Msi’ stopped him.

–Wait. I perfectly understand that you want answers, but in this state you will not achieve anything, breathe and calm down before talking to them –The young lady looked him in the eyes and just as the first time they saw each other she left him lost in them. He agreed, tried to calm himself down, and after a while he was ready to speak.

–Please stay back, I don’t want them to see you.

–Why?

–I have an idea, don’t worry.

–Well –She said, moving away from the visibility of the camera.

He started the call and in a short time they answered.

–Daniel, Good evening, what do I owe the pleasure?

There, it was little more than three in the morning, so the center was empty, the only one that still working was Miguel.

–Miguel, I needed to report certain things.

–Sure, go ahead.

–Well, first of all I wanted to tell you that I already have the light –Dan showed the closed container to the man, who got really happy.

–Wonderful, I'll tell the chancellor right now, I'm sure he'll want to send for you right away

–Hold on! There's something more I need to talk about.

–Yes?

–You'll see, I'm not at home, I mean, on the planet of recovery.

–What? How is it possible?

–I've had some mishaps, now I'm on planet C47.

The man's gaze changed instantly.

–I see.

–Yeah, I was wandering around the place and you won’t believe what I found, and is just that, well, after all my work, I think, at least I deserve to know the truth, so, what is the Earth of Tomorrow’s project?

The boss was completely surprised.

–I see, look, Daniel, some things may seem really bad, but you must understand that we always seek the benefit of the people...

–It is for the benefit of the people, let them all die! Anything you told me was true? At least the light is really from our planet?

–Daniel calm down, just bring the light and then we will explain everything, don’t forget that we all depend on it, if you don’t return it...

–Tell me the truth first.

–Landon!

–Tell me, or I swear you will not see it again!

Miguel hesitated for a few minutes, but felt he had no way out.

–Well, you’ll see, everything in the universe has a beginning and an end, the beginning of our civilization occurred when the light reached the planet C47, Terraria. The light is, an entity that travels through the universe giving life, is like a natural force. After a certain time, it can return to the worlds to which it gave them its energy, to give them, another push, when it returned to Terraria and we realized its power, we began to work for it to stay on the planet, but our civilization was divided and horrible wars between the nations were unleashed in order to possess the technology that allowed to control the light. Finally the most powerful people achieved it and upon its return, they made it stay, struggles diminished and our whole world developed at a speed never seen. But as I said, everything has an end; Terraria ceased to be sustainable, the energy of the light had to be diverted to so many daily tasks that it became impossible to use it to regenerate the planet. For the survival of our civilization, we sought a new world, a clean and self–sufficient world which would allow us to start again, that one was, the Earth of Tomorrow. However, we were still disunited, there were many groups that sought to obtain the power of light, so because of this and the lack of resources to carry all, the only who moved away were to those with social importance.

–Those who could afford their trip.

–No, it wasn’t money, it was the superiority, they had to restart only with the best –Daniel couldn’t hide his anger–. Sometimes, is necessary erase, to do something much better, however everything degenerates over the years, that's why we need the light back, to re–start again with exceptional people like you and me.

–Wait a minute, will you do it again?

–Daniel, don’t you get it? Our society has rotted and it is time to purify it.

–I agree –The young man said with disgust and helplessness–. Go to hell, Miguel.

He cut off the communication immediately, feeling like it was hard to breathe, got up and started screaming, kicking and throwing away all that was around him. His emotions had completely overtaken him, so Msi’ ran to his side trying to help him.

–Dani, Dani, look at me –She asked as took him by the shoulders.

–They'll do it again! –The boy dropped to his knees, still shaking. –What am I supposed to do now? If i take the light or not hundreds of innocents will die anyway, Who am I to decide on the others life?

She took him by the cheeks and joined their foreheads so that all he could see were her eyes.

–Breathe, forget everything and calm down.

He leaned on her, closing his eyes and trying to breathe. Little by little his heart rate became normal and he felt that enormous weight lightening. So they stayed there, sitting side by side until the young man could order out his thoughts.

–Now everything is clear, I don’t know if I’ll ever forgive myself for what I'm going to do.

–What will you do?

–I won’t return the light.

–But Dani, those people do not have the bla...

–It doesn’t matter, whatever I do or do not, those people are doomed and even if my whole world is destroyed, at least I'll be sure that the light will continue its work after this.

Msi’ didn't know what to say, there seemed to be no way to help those people or Dan himself, if everything they had told them was true, then all she could do was sit and look.
