A long, long time ago, a girl opened her eyes, wondering where she was. She sat up, and looked around her. She was in a completely empty room, where all the walls and floor were a golden-coloured metal.Then, the information came to her. She was Alexis. That was her name. She was a genie. What is a genie, she thought, before the knowledge entered her head. A genie was a being who existed to serve humans. Soon, a human would rub her lamp, and she would be his genie servant until the day he died. She would use her magic powers to grant any wish he made. This would be her job for all eternity.
This was all very confusing for Alexis, who had only come into existence just a few minutes prior, and who had to take all this new information in. But then again, all information was new to her. Everything was new to her.
Alexis then felt a tugging sensation, and she instinctively moved onto her knees. Clouds of light-blue smoke surrounded her, and seconds later, she was in a dark, rocky place. Looking around her, she was in what appeared to be a cave. Cave. That was a word she"d just learned. This world was so interesting. In front of her in the cave was a group of people, gathered around a fire. One man in particular, she noticed, was holding a metal object. Her lamp.
"Master?" She asked. The group of humans all looked shocked.

Even longer ago, two humans and their genies were even more shocked. They looked around, and saw that they were floating in what appeared to be a completely black void.
"Well I was not expecting that to work," Alexis said, almost sounding impressed.
"What happened?" Matt asked. "Where are we?"
"Nowhere," Alexis replied. "We"ve gone back in time 14.6 billion years, to a few minutes before the big bang is scheduled to happen. That"s why there"s nothing here. Because there"s nothing anywhere. The 4 of us are the only things in existence. I"ve had to make an invisible sh.e.l.l for us with air, heat and light in just so you two don"t die, both because I like you, and because the prospect of waiting billions of years for human life to evolve so I can have another Master doesn"t sound very fun."
"So what now?" Sophie asked. "There"s nothing. No maker. Just us."
"My guess is, even if there is a maker, we won"t see him," Alexis said. "He"ll probably just will the universe into existence."
Sophie and Matt just floated there for a while, thinking.
"There"s no maker," Matt finally admitted.
"Thank you," Alexis said. "So can we go home now? I"ve got a mug of hot chocolate waiting for me."

"Wait a second...we"re the only ones in the universe," Sophie said.
"Give the girl a prize," Alexis said sarcastically.
"What I"m saying," Sophie continued. "Is that if there"s nothing here but us, how can the universe be created? You can"t create something from nothing."
"What are you getting at?" Matt asked.
"Well...maybe we create the universe? Maybe, just maybe, all of it"s been for this. I got Alexis and you got Lumiosa so that we could come back and create the universe."
"Why would anyone do that? I mean, if someone can engineer all those events, why would they need us to create the universe? Surely they could do it themselves?"
"Maybe we are doing it ourselves."
"Sophie, are you suggesting that you and Matt are the makers?" Alexis asked.
"That"s exactly what I"m suggesting," Sophie replied. "Maybe we create the universe. Maybe we created the genies and the humans. That"s why we"re exempt from the rules, because we made them. Everything happened so we could come back here and set the events in motion."
