There was nothing. Nothing at all. All was black as space, quiet as shadows, and cold as the coolest ice. In this, there was a single light. A light as bright as the most powerful stars. Inside this light was a home. Five gods sat inside this home, staring out toward the darkness. “What is all of this?” They thought, for they never really pondered what lay outside of their warm home. They all chose to forget about it. The thought of what happens outside, was something that made their heads hurt! Nevertheless, their curiosity burned like a hot ember. To take their minds off the thought of what exists outside of their godly home, they decided to play some sports. Their favorites were golf, soccer, squash, and boxing. God number 1, was absolutely in love with golf, which was unusual because his four other godly brothers, absolutely despised it. He decided to go off and practice golf himself. God number 2, finished playing a futuristic game named Fifa, and wanted to try out soccer. God number 3 however, was superior to all others, possessing high intelligence and athletic ability, for he chose to swagger off to the squash courts and clear his head. Thus, gods 4 and 5 remained. They decided to fight in the boxing ring, a sure way to clear their heads!
Now, as they went off to their respective sports arenas, they were all thinking the same. What was outside in the darkness? What is out there? The truth is, there was really nothing. Nothing existed, and nothing was created. Yet. For each of these gods had an ability to create things. Their breath, sweat, blood, and hair, could all form different objects, from the air we all breathe, to the water all drink.
The godly brothers started to play sports. God 1 was at the golfing range and hit balls so far, they couldn’t be seen! Today, he lost focus and controlled the golf ball badly. He hit it so far, it flew into the abyss. The ball disappeared and was lost into the darkness outside of the warm home. God number 2 was playing soccer. He was terrible and barely knew how to. He kicked the ball as hard as he could toward a net. His super strong godly legs kicked the ball at a speed of 1000 miles per hour. It hurtled toward the net but hit the crossbar and bounced back! The 1000 mph soccer ball made of godly leather hit the god directly on the face, and knocked his head, into the dark abyss! God 3 was playing squash with himself. He concentrated on each shot and hit a beautiful shot, that was perfect! In celebration, this foolish god threw his expensive racquet as far as he could, straight into the darkness. Lastly, gods 4 and 5 were boxing intensely. Weirdly enough, they were boxing directly above the darkness. “Hey! You cheated” God 4 roared. It turned out god 5 had brass knuckles hidden in his gloves, and that was why he was winning. God 4 went ballistic, and punched god 5 hard, all of his teeth came out and fell into the abyss.
Now all of the gods returned to their home (except god 2 of course), tired and exhausted. It was a tough day. After a good night’s sleep, they all looked out of their windows. Almost all 4 remaining gods fainted. It turned out, the items that were dropped into the abyss tuned into the universe! The golf balls that god 1 hit, flew into the darkness, and containing godly light, they became the first stars. God 2’s head and soccer ball flew together. The soccer ball became the world, and the head became part of the earth. The eyes became the rocks. The hair became the trees and grass. The skin was the earth, and all parts of the earth were part of god 2’s head. God 3’s racquet became the galaxy. With the strings being the rope that ties solar system’s together. God 4’s sweat and blood became the sea’s, river, and water to drink. But most importantly, god 5’s teeth became the first humans and animals. The beginning of a new universe of life.
