Genesis (Part-1)

In the beginning there was nothing. In the end, there will be nothing.

Story:
Once upon a time, billions of years ago; When humans feared getting scattered away, when each and every human being alive on the planet, lived in a place, that extended a few hundred meters on all sides; there was a man. Ethan is his name. Always used to give shudders to the people by suddenly disappearing from the community, going to far off places and teaching people to not sit at one place, but explore. Fearing that his words may act as spell in the community spirit that the next generation needs to learn, Ethan was abolished from the community. Ethan, not knowing where to go, started running, towards the place where he always wanted to go - The place where the sky meets mountains. He ran and ran, there are mountains behind mountains, but the sky always resided on the farthest mountain visible. Then he got an idea...

Why am I running after it? Why isn't it running after me; just the same way I got intrigued by it, why isn't it interested in a person like me, who could stand alone from the community?

So he started running back. Towards the community. The air flow made the sky move forward and it appeared to Ethan, as though the sky is moving towards the community too and is racing against him. He ran fast. Faster than the sky so as to reach the community, earlier than it. He suddenly stopped. The sky isn't moving. Some thick white layers on it, are moving. Why? Again he thought....
