The streets were full of people and screens. In their cellphones or above all of the skycrappers. Some calles it Narcisso's Age, 'cause, everywhere were you see, you will see some of the most cautivating images. Such realistic that one could forget they were just pictures and not the real world.
Now that technology did advance so far, the idea of 2D images was totally erased, now, the dragon flying through the building's windows was as real as birds in the parks.
The kids were fascinated with their actual world. And the adults, they too have special content to be absort on, for example beatiful or gorgeous, women and men. For all tastes.
It was twelve o'clock when all screens turned dark and with it came the probable first silence settled in the renowed City of Lights. It didnt long to much.
-What the hell?!
-Shit! I was near victory!
-Mom! The screens just turned dark, do something! -a kid was sobbing.
More screams and whinnings of people of all ages, until, a sound started. "What was happenign?" all people were asking. Soon, something appeared in their cellphones. It was the image of a renowed man.
"Welcome all of you! I am so sorry if us just scared you, but we needed your attetion!" his voice resonated all over the place. Such a calm and soft sound.
