The Multiverse: The War Beyond Reality
Chapter 1: The Man Who Saw Beyond
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
It was 2:17 AM. Alex Moretti was staring at his glowing computer monitors as he worked on some equations. He was thirty-two years old, and had dedicated his life to proving that parallel universes actually exist.
Tonight, he was one step away from doing just that.
A weird signal began showing up on his monitor. Seven pings were pulsing in a certain pattern. Alex looked at the information on his screen and then remembered something from his late father's research book.
He flipped through the tattered book and found that there was seven ancient symbols in a circle. To his astonishment, there was a mathematical pattern in them.
Alex's father was a historian who had spent many years researching about the Anunnaki. They were mysterious gods spoken about in ancient Mesopotamian texts. He believed that the stories may have been memories of an advanced civilisation.
Alex had always thought his father was just making wild guesses.
But now...
He typed the symbols into his experimental quantum field device.
Suddenly, all the lights in the lab flickered. The metal ring in the centre of the lab began to pulse and glow blue.
For a second Alex saw a massive ancient building in a desert beneath a strange sky.
Then everything disappeared.
A message came up on his screen.
THE GATE REMEMBERS.
Alex gaped at the device in front of him. He had no idea what he had discovered through his research.
Chapter 3: The Return of The Anunnaki
Toronto Ontario Canada
Alex and Elena stood stunned as the machine spoke their names.
"We need to turn this off!"
"No, we need to know what we are dealing with," replied Alex.
He studied the seven symbols. He tinkered with the machine. The ring made a humming sound as the portal opened.
This time they saw a beautiful ancient city. Large walls surrounded huge temples. The strange lights were floating around the city. The buildings resembled those from ancient Mesopotamia.
There was a figure standing there.
It was wearing golden amour and holding a long weapon. This figure had human features but glowing eyes.
"What is that?" asked Elena stepping back.
The figure walked towards the portal.
"You have forgotten where you came from. Your ancestors wrote that we arrived and they called us the gods."
Alex gulped.
"Are you one of the Anunnaki?"
The figure tilted their head.
"So you know our name. We have a start."
The portal suddenly flashed. A booming voice echoed through the lab.
"Find the temple under Eridu. Your fathers line will help."
Alex felt his stomach churn. His father had spent his whole life studying ancient Mesopotamia but never told him why.
The figure with golden amour raised their weapon.
"Be careful Alex Moretti. Not everyone who returns is here to save your world."
The portal disappeared.
"We're going to Iraq. I need to find out what my dad discovered," said Alex, turning to Elena.
Chapter 4 – The Secret Of His Father
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Alex went back to his apartment. He opened the boxes that contained his fathers things. He tried to avoid looking at these old journals because they were all about his dads obsession with ancient mythologies.
But now he felt like every page was important.
Elena joined him at the kitchen table as they looked through the maps, pictures and notes.
He wasn’t just researching on the Anunnaki. He visited Iraq!
Alex flipped to the back of a journal to find a picture of his dad standing in front of a stone archway covered by sand dunes. Above the archway there were seven carvings.
The same seven symbols that had made his machine come to life!
At the bottom of the picture his dad had written,
“This isn’t a machine. This is a portal.”
He turned the page to see that he had written the name Enlil many times.
“The traitor.”
His phone suddenly rang. The number was unknown.
“Aleks Moretti. You’ve uncovered what your father spent his life trying to keep hidden.”
“Who are you? What happened to my dad?”
Silence.
“All he did was uncover the truth about Eridu, just like you. He wasn’t the first Moretti to know.”
The person hung up.
Looking back at the picture he noticed that there was a mysterious figure with a helmet standing in the dark behind his dad.
Elena leaned forward.
“Alex look! There’s a hand!”
It was pointing towards the symbols.
On the back of the picture he saw his fathers writing,
THEY KNOW YOU’RE COMING.
Chapter 4 – The Secret Of His Father
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Alex returned to his apartment and opened the boxes containing his fathers belongings. He didn’t want to look at these journals as they were all about his dads obsession with ancient mythologies.
Yet every page now seemed important.
Elena walked over to the kitchen table.
Alex wasn’t just researching the Anunnaki; he had travelled to Iraq!
He flipped through his journal to the last page, revealing a photo of his dad standing in front of a stone archway. It was covered in sand dunes. There were seven carvings above the archway.
The same seven symbols that caused his machine to activate!
At the bottom of the photo his dad had written,
'It’s not a machine, it’s a portal.'
He flipped the page to reveal his dad had written the name Enlil multiple times.
"The traitor."
His phone began ringing. An unknown number.
"Aleks Moretti. You have discovered what your father spent his life hiding."
"Who are you? What happened to my dad?"
[No response]
"He simply discovered the truth about Eridu. Just like you. He wasnt the first Moretti to know."
[Call ended]
As he looked at the photo again he noticed there was a mysterious figure wearing a helmet standing in the shadows behind his dad.
Elena leaned in.
"Alex look! There’s a hand!"
Pointing to the symbols.
On the back of the photo he could see his fathers handwriting,
THEY KNOW YOU’RE COMING.

Chapter 6 – The Devourer
Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
His place was back inside the university lab, watching the mysterious symbol under his high resolution scanner. Elena watched on next to him as the before mentioned signal was compared to the other seven symbols that were used to open the portal.
The scans showed some worrying things. The design contained mathematical properties that were showing how the fabric of space time can work.
"This symbol is known as the Devourer, and was what your father thought could destroy whole universes." Alex said, flipping through the pages of his journal. "He believed it could do this because-"
Elena looked at the equations themselves.
"What if it does not destroy them? What if it smashes them together?"
Before Alex could say anything, all of the monitors turned on. There was a transmission where a female in black armor appeared.
"My name is Seraphina Vale. If you’re watching this message then that means the enemy has located your world."
"Who are you?" Alex asked.
"I’m an ally of the Anunnaki, though I would be called a traitor by most. Your father helped keep us hidden."
She continued to explain that they created portals to travel between universes. They protected countless worlds using their amazing tech. That was until one of their leaders turned.
"Enlil wishes to control the whole multiverse. He uses this Devourer to destroy the thresholds between realities."
Alex thought about the golden clad figure as he stood at the portal.
"Why do you need me?"
"Because you have a key in your bloodline that he cannot make again."
All of a sudden the lab started to shake. Torontos skies suddenly began to swirl with clouds as something large fell through the sky.
As Seraphinas image started to glitch.
"They’ve made it here, trust no one claiming to be an ally of the gods."
The transmission disappeared.
Alex looked at Elena as the alarms started to flash around the building.
Something opened up above the city, an enormous eye of metal.
Something began to stir inside.
