Abiodun had always dreamed of living in the city, and her dream had finally come true. She had moved into a decent apartment in an old historical building and basement with an intriguing past. The building had been used for various traditional purposes over the years, and its mystery came from the house’s old, unused basement, which has rumors of mysteries.
One sunny afternoon, Abiodun, who eventually got the luxury of time after a long time of cleanup, decided to explore her new home. As she climbed down the creaking wooden stairs that led to the dark basement, she noticed a strange-looking door hidden away in the dark corner. The door was eerie-looking and covered in dust and cobwebs, as if it hadn’t been touched in decades.

Curiosity got the better of Abiodun, and she decided to see the mystery behind the mystery door. With a bit of effort, she managed to push the heavy door open. As the door creaked open, her heart continued to beat in fear and uncertainty. To her astonishment, it revealed a dimly lit corridor that seemed to stretch into infinity. The air was strangely cool, and a faint hum emanated from the depths of the passage.
Carefully, she took a few hesitant steps into the mysterious passage. It appeared to be some kind of tunnel, and she couldn’t resist the urge to explore further. Her heart pounded with a mixture of fear and excitement as she ventured deeper into the subterranean labyrinth.

After what felt like hours, Abiodun stumbled into a vast, cavernous chamber. But it was unlike any place on Earth. It looked out of this world! The walls shimmered with an otherworldly iridescence, and a strange, violet sky hung overhead. Bizarre creatures with luminous skin skittered across the rocky terrain.
Abiodun realized she had somehow stumbled upon another planet. It was a place of incredible beauty and alien wonder. As she marveled at her surroundings, a holographic projection appeared before her, displaying a countdown timer. It read: “Earth – Time Until Invasion: 30 Days.”
