The last time Russia was anxious and uncomfortable. However, as always. Outside the window the last leaves were falling and the exchange rate, at night it crackled frost and the economy. Grew only prices and international tensions. Every morning, turning on the TV, preparing and absorbing their simple bachelor Breakfast, Peter Fomich anxiously listened to reports of fires, accidents and disasters, typhoons, floods and earthquakes, depletion of the Reserve Fund of the state, bribe-takers and embezzlers. It is fairly spoiled his appetite and mood, depriving of confidence in the future and a decent retirement. Life no longer seemed bright holiday, but wanted some certainty.
Immediately after the news began the program who Fomich also missed. It talked about the growing power of the Russian army and Navy, the insidious machinations of world imperialism, the bloody crimes of Judeo-Bandera, exposing the terrible secrets of the distant past. As a true patriot and loyal citizen, he voted in the elections for the President and his party, but the fifth column and the cursed liberasty interfered beloved Homeland to achieve social progress and prosperity for all. They stirs his imagination and plunged into a long meditation on the fate of the world, which translates into a lengthy essay about the necessary return to traditional national values.
For a snack, the television entertained with programs about various conspiracies of food producers and equipment, medicines and clothing, as well as hygiene in shops and catering. The sufferer is left to eat bread with yeast from the bones of the dead, the figure of the Chinese plastics, GMO tomatoes, sausage of pulp and rat tails drinking milk hormone fed cows and the vodka made from sawdust. Struggling with excess cholesterol, weight and pressure he has long ceased to use salt and sugar, tea and coffee, butter and sour cream, cheese and pasta, eggs and meat animals. The figure is not much affected, but the stomach problems only strengthened the belief in the need for a strict diet and General bad feeling.
Further-more. The dead voice from the screen told of the impending invasion serologic aliens from Sirius, the probability of falling of huge meteorites, explosions of ancient super-volcanoes, an imminent huge tsunami, global warming and the melting of glaciers and the shifting of earth’s axis and the new ice age. Closer to the dinner was a program about witches and wizards lurking in the neighbors on the landing, goblins and ghosts, incantations and the evil eye, the underground inhabitants axero-snake-like appearance and other abnormal areas with bad energy. Hair move on the back before polysevshy poor guy, and the night he spent tossing and turning in bed, anxiously listening to every sound under the bed.
Fomich was a favor and not too superstitious or paranoid, but sensitively related to your lot of already familiar with health and badly battered budget. So he listened attentively to the authoritative broadcasting with screen politicians, astrologers and other oracles, reading for leisure was found in the nooks and crannies of the world network of the predictions of the ancient prophets and fashionable futurists. They all promised a happy future for his country in some historical perspective, but in the very near future – just all kinds of trouble and trials. It certainly instilled some hope for survival, but not much. And life Fomich Peter loved and was not going to part with it without a fight.
He had been reading books on the esoteric and, although, in principle, did not believe in God, but kept in the red corner, small icons of Christ and the virgin. Astrologers and horoscopes, he didn’t like, but changed the channel soon after his zodiac sign. Superstition Fomich also despised, but did not hesitate on occasion to spit over your left shoulder or to circumvent a black cat. Especially he respected the Chinese and Feng Shui, kept at the entrance bells, and the Windows 8-coal mirror Bagua. However, the yoga he has been at it a while, but the pool but visited regularly. Transmission of health and traditional healers also did not make peace in his troubled foreboding soul. From the advertised drugs were kept only back-breaking prices.
His sight began to prepare for all the unexpected troubles and hard times, not too hoping for MOE after changing its long head. He made the supply of necessities just in case of cereals, water and gasoline. Peter Fomich took all the money from the account and transferred almost all the cash in foreign currency, collected all documents in one folder, what would have time to quickly run out in case of fire or air RAID. Then he purchased a tent and a sleeping bag, began to take shape in the voluminous backpack, warm clothes and shoes, soap and matches, canned food and tools, medicines and alcohol, turning your garage into a real warehouse. Now he was ready for anything and began to while away the last days, gradually Pobjeda and updating their stocks.
There is a limit and it came when the apartment suddenly went missing cockroaches. Fomich all realized at once, that’s a clear sign it’s time to do legs. He did not hesitate, left his house and loaded all our supplies in an old “Zhiguli”. The way a fugitive kept to the East, further and further away from the corrupting European civilization and the temptations of large cities. With every kilometer of their homes became less, and the road is getting worse and the desert. When the mountains, he tried to go as far as possible into thickets, leaving their vehicles on the banks of rivers and went further on foot. The trail has long ended, but the man stubbornly climbed up, scattering the forest predators smell their long-unwashed socks.
He was lucky, and a few nights under the open sky, he found a deep cave, where finally sighed quietly. Judging by the clear sky and good weather, end of the world has not yet happened, and hardly anyone knew about his imminent attack. Peter Fomich sarcastic grinned and began to settle. The surrounding taiga provided the fuel for a bonfire and small animals for a gun, and stream – water and fish. A prudent owner started to think about the construction in the spring of this hut, and yet has been constructed from timber palisade with a gate at the entrance to the cave, and inside – flooring for sleeping and products. Later came the low table and bench. Life is gradually improving, but it wasn’t.
In his secret plan was to become the ancestor of an entire civilization that gave his people a new right of commandment. Stick with uploaded by the library Moshkova him should be enough. For music, movies and pictures of the seats already gone, but his concern was more a question of the recovery population, in which he made a serious blunder. The main role of the Patriarch was ready to take over in his abilities he had no doubt, relentlessly practicing in the evenings, but bear or mountain goat as my assistant in such a serious matter it does not suit. He wanted a more familiar and trainable flock. But it was necessary to descend to the abandoned and condemned sinners.
The problem should immediately be solved, and the supply of food has been steadily coming to an end. Without the usual disturbing news was somehow quite sad, lost faith in the imminent end of all things and the meaning of the whole venture. He Packed up and moved back to the valley. The return journey was given faster, the more that it was already light. However, to find human habitation in these remote places was much harder. Fomich starved, frozen and exhausted. Without a map he strayed more than a week before in the distance, behind the next hill, there was a curly haze from the pipes. The Savior of mankind made a step forward and stumbled. The ground suddenly vanished beneath his feet and the world turned upside down. The sun disappeared and the light ended.
