Destroying My Own World

Chapter 16: Anomaly.

"Why are you not joining us? There are enough demons for all of us," Aurea asked as she looked at Mykel who was sitting on the hood of the car while smoking his cigarette.

"I\'m not in the mood, you guys can take all of them for yourself," Mykel said as he looked at Aurea.

Aurea shrugged her mouth and then walked away to deal with the demons that were swarming in the city.

Mykel looked at the map on his phone to check the location he was in. He was still in Chicago and the sun was already down, and he was still halfway from Washington DC. He could have just gone straight there, but the fact that a whole division of an army followed him, they had to take it slowly.

Lyneth, Edith, and Enma stayed in Nebraska because they had a more important task than killing demons. They were making connections to important people that Mykel said to Lyneth last night during the ceremony.

"Mister Mykel, we have checked the other areas, and we captured dozens of demons. What do you want us to do? Should we go there and deal with it?" A man in a military suit with a hat that covered his hair. He was the major that led the division and was responsible for the mission.

"If you think you can\'t deal with them on your own, bring Nagy and Lillith with you. They will handle the big guys for you," Mykel said as he jumped down from the hood.

The major nodded and immediately left to ask Nagy and Lillith for help.

The night was long, and nobody could sleep because of the screeches and the growls of the demons that scared the soldiers. Although it was really scary for them, they felt safe because Gunnar and the boys were dealing with the demons until the morning.

Mykel was outside and drinking his cold drink because the summer was really hot. The reason why he was outside was that the major was informed that there was an anomaly. He was waiting until the major finished talking with the general on the phone, so he could know what it was all about.

"Mister Mykel, can you come with me for a second?" The major asked as he pointed at the humvee that was parked in the street.

Mykel looked at the Humvee and saw the laptops in the backseat. The major grabbed one of them and showed it to Mykel.

"This just appeared last night, and we have no idea what it is, but this looks like a giant door," The major said.

A photo of a giant door that was captured by the satellite, and the weirdest part was the door was floating above the ground. Mykel never made something like that, and there was nothing like floating doors in the game he designed. He was curious about it and what was behind that door.

"Where is this taken from?" Mykel asked.

"Near the Ozark mountain in Arkansas, and this door was glowing bright like a lamp at night based on the information that we got. The President is asking us to go and check it out because we don\'t have any more resources to go out there," The major explained and looked at Mykel with a worried expression.

"It\'s going to take a while to go there by car," Mykel pointed out.

"We are not going there with a car, a chopper is on their way here and we can arrive there in just a few hours," The major answered.

"Then I\'ll bring some of my team with me while the rest stay here and maintain the territory," Mykel nodded with understanding and walked away.

It took them six hours to get to Ozark, and they saw the giant door that Mykel saw in the photo. The door was twenty meters wide and fifty meters tall. Mykel, Jeanne, Aurea, and Elena were confused and curious at the same time about the door because it was the first time they saw it.

"Let\'s get down there," Elena said.

"You guys can go ahead," Mykel said.

Elena, Jeanne, and Aurea looked at each other for a moment, but then they jumped down from the helicopter which was a hundred meters high from the ground. They landed and broke the ground, but they were fine since they got even stronger than last time.

"Have you guys noticed that something is off about Mykel?" Aurea asked.

"He has been off for quite a while, but this time he\'s really showing it off," Jeanne answered and looked at the chopper that was slowly descending into the empty space. "Elena, did he say anything to you?" Jeanne asked.

"No, and I\'m not going to ask," Elena answered as she walked toward the door. "My father is someone who likes to keep things to himself, and there\'s no need to think about it unless he tells you about it," Elena explained.

Mykel got out of the chopper and approached the door from top to bottom. He noticed the door was floating and stayed still like it was frozen, but then he noticed the symbols around the door\'s frame. He didn\'t know what language it was, but that should mean something and might be the answer to this anomaly.

"Hold on a minute, I know this language," One of the soldiers said as he approached the door. "It\'s a language that a Native American used, I have seen them on a history channel, but I can\'t read them," he continued.

"Native American..." Mykel said under his breath as he looked at the door with a confused look.

"Take photos of the door, and make sure that every symbol or word on the frame is readable and visible. We are going to send the photos back and hope there\'s someone who can translate it for us," The major said as he looked at the door.

Elena, Jeanne, and Aurea looked at Mykel, but he shook his head, telling them that he knew nothing about it.

"They have translated it, the words!" The major said as he walked toward Mykel.

Mykel looked at the photos with the translation next to them, and he read it out loud.

"This door is destined for those who believe in our land of everlasting happiness. Those who believe in us will be rewarded with our blessing by entering this door. Those who don\'t believe in us will be punished if they enter this door. The Great Spirits await your arrival," Mykel said.

Everyone looked at each other with confused looks, but then Mykel walked toward the door and stared at it for quite a while.

"This door can only be entered by those who believe in the Native American Gods which are the Great Spirits. Those who don\'t believe in them, they would be punished when they get through this door. This is what they called a sponsor, or perhaps it\'s something else," Mykel pointed out with his arms crossed. "This is really interesting because if this appears, then there will be other doors like this out there around the world," Mykel continued.

"You\'re saying is that this door is like a connection between the God realms and ours? If the Native American Gods are behind this door, does that mean the Greek Gods, the Norse Gods, and also the Egyptian Gods have something like this in their own country?" Elena asked as she looked at Mykel.

"Yes, I believe so, and they\'re out there," Mykel nodded his head as he looked at the sky. "(You can\'t change the game, and so you added a new feature to help them, huh?)" Mykel thought.

"If that\'s the case, don\'t we who believe in God should also have something like this somewhere?" The major asked Mykel, and he looked excited and anxious.

"Do you think so? I think the God that you believe in won\'t allow anyone to see him," Mykel said as he looked at the major. "Your God is something else," Mykel continued as he walked past the major.

(At the temporary White House)

"What\'s going on? First, there\'s a demon circle that is enough to stir the whole world, and now you said there\'s a door that connects our world to God\'s world?! What\'s the meaning of this!" Richard asked as he rubbed his nose bridge and leaned on his chair.

"Sir, I think you want to see this," Russel said as he turned on the TV.

Richard looked at the TV and his jaw dropped when he saw the door in Egypt open. "My God, is that an Egyptian God?" Richard asked as he slowly stood up and looked at the screen with his eyes wide open.
