Chapter 1 - End (1)

India

Mumbai

We see people dressed in blue pants and white shirts—office workers stepping out of their workplaces.

Some are getting on bikes, others walking to catch buses or autos—everyone heading home.

Among them, we see a 25-year-old man wearing blue pants, a white shirt, and a tie around his neck.

"Finally, another miserable day of my life is over," says Arjun, as he hurries to catch a bus.

He's moving quickly toward the bus stop, carrying a bag.

All around him are tall skyscrapers and signs of rapid development, showing just how advanced the city has become.

As Arjun walks, he's lost in thought—and without checking the signal, he starts crossing the road.

"HOOOONNNK!!!"

A loud horn blares.

Arjun is now in the middle of the road, and a truck is speeding toward him.

He freezes. His legs stop working.

To him, it feels like death is just moments away.

In a flash, his entire life plays before his eyes.

An orphan. Bullied. Endless struggle. A flicker of hope—and now, death.

That was Arjun's life.

Just when things seemed like they might get better, he was about to die.

As he stands there in a daze, a man rushes up to him—wearing a traffic police uniform. The officer scolds him for standing in the middle of the road and shaking him to bring him back to his senses.

"Are you crazy? Standing in the middle of the road and blocking traffic! Get out of the way quickly!"

Arjun stares blankly at the officer, confused and shaken.

He looks around for the truck that was just about to hit him—but there's no truck there. He's stunned.

Before he can say or do anything, the officer grabs his hand and pulls him to the side of the road.

...

"Sigh..."

Arjun lets out a deep breath of relief.

He's back in his small rented room.

A small space with a bed, a tiny bathroom, and a small kitchen.

Arjun is now making Maggi noodles on the stove.

5 minutes later...

He's eating Maggi while watching TV.

Time passes without him noticing, and soon the food is gone. He sits there, just watching TV.

9:30 PM

Arjun gets up and checks the clock on the wall.

"Didn't even realize how much time passed."

"Sigh..."

"What is this life? Wake up, go to work, come back, go to work again…

I don't want to keep doing this anymore."

He says this to himself, glancing around his tiny room.

...

Arjun lies down on his bed, thinking about how his day went.

He doesn't realize when the exhaustion takes over, and he falls into a deep sleep.

A sleep so deep...

...that maybe he'll never wake up in this world again.

Maybe...

...

We shift to outer space.

We see all 8 planets and the Sun aligned in a straight line.

From each planet, a mysterious light begins to glow—spreading across space.

"Hahaha..."

"Finally, the destined constellation has appeared."

"Yes... hahaha..."

The laughter comes from inside a cube-shaped object.

As the laughter echoes, the cube begins absorbing all that mysterious planetary energy.

Within moments, it absorbs everything.

But it doesn't notice a Golden Soul, marked with nine strange glowing seals—each one incredibly powerful.

That soul also enters the cube.

After absorbing the energies, the cube starts to leave—but suddenly, space around it begins collapsing.

Time itself starts reversing.

The cube becomes trapped in the past.
