In the sixth universe.
An incessant beeping echoed through the the destroyed remains of a once seemingly prosperous city.
Burried under heavy rubble, there lay the source of the beeping. An odd device akin in appearance to a pocket watch. But it had only one hand on it and where its numbering should've been, there were indecipherable symbols. It's bodice also appeared to have been made of a rather alien substance, being as glossy as a metal would be, yet with texture like that of leather.
The one hand it had, seemed to be moving in an anti clockwise direction, soon approaching the place where 12'o clock would be located. The beeping seemed to have hastened its speed. When it seemed nearly there, a pale hand reached out from under the ruins and grabbed it.
A soft, somewhat horse voice that seemed to be on its last breath whispered,"Emelisse save yourself this time..."
Just as the voice uttered its last word, the hand struck 12 and the beeping stopped.
All was quiet.
