The date is December 13th, 2013. The Earth's core has suddenly started to rapidly slow down. Scientists were perplexed, but most of all were terrified. What were the consequences of this going to be in the future? One of the common theories were that the Earth's magnetic field was going to deteriorate, causing radiation to pour on the Earth, ending all life. A new international program had been started, funded by most if not all countries to protect the life on Earth. Satellites had been sent around the Earth, and many rocketships and spaceships were sent to gather more data about the cause of the Earth's core. In the meanwhile, one outlandish suggestion was made. Days went by, and the Earth's day cycle was slowing down. Days now lasted about 20 hours and nights lasted 19 hours. Perhaps the Earth would be tidally locked to the sun? It was easily dismissed, but they weren't prepared for what was about to happen next.

February 5th, 2019. The sun stopped, and the sun had vanished. The Earth had been locked to the sun. Many nations began to collapse, and riots had begun. The unthinkable had happened, as humanity was slowly beginning to dig its own grave. The Americas started becoming hotter and hotter, while the oceans began to evaporate. On the other side, Eurasia had perpetual ice cold snow, and the oceans were freezing up. In the middle, however, in certain parts of Africa, the temperature was mild, and a beautiful sunset was there.

Centuries had passed, and many rich corporations, nations, and people migrated to the middle part. Hope was beginning to die, as death and suffering became a daily part of normal life. Until one day a scientist had found a way to terraform the Earth back its past state. Most were suspicious, but to other scientists, it seemed plausible. Although the economy was dying, the people never gave up hope.

The year is February 5th, 4019,  2000 years after the tidal lock catastrophe had occurred. Technology had become advancing forth again, and hope has started to shine. Will you become the one that saves the world, or become the very thing to destroy it?
