Vasil is a man in his late thirties working for the military, found himself assigned on a dangerous mission to spy on their enemy at their own water territory. Vasil was assigned with three other commanders, which is: Commander Phikov, Commander Dmitry, and Commander Berbatov.
Just 5 hours into the mission. Vasil realized they have gone too close to the enemy territory. Commander Phikov Decided to lower their altitudes so that the enemy ships couldn’t track them, but what Phikov didn’t realize is that he had made a huge mistake by bringing their submarine too deep to the water. They had lost their connection but if they went up the enemy ships could track them.
The Submarine crew started to panic, they had no choice but to move away from the enemy territory without any radar nor any communication. From here on the enemy starts to feel the presence of spy submarines in their territory. After 3 hours that report was approved, not just that even the news has reached all over the world.
At this point, they still didn't know that the enemy had realized their presence. As they drove away from the enemy territory, they could finally go back to the normal altitude before Commander Phikov received a message from the enemy president, telling them to leave their territory immediately, in response their own president wouldn’t agree with this as their president told them to continue the mission.
Meanwhile, the whole world is watching this tragedy. Knowing a nuclear war could happen at every second and that the conflict has never seemed to end any time sooner. As the enemy had already ready their weapon and of course their president wouldn’t let that slide, as the president told them to ready the nuclear weapon on the submarine. This was the closest point of the start of a nuclear war.
Not just that, almost every country in the world would get their soldiers and nuclear weapons ready to destroy each other. Vasil knows this is wrong, they can't be the one who will start a longlife nuclear war.
Meanwhile Commander Dmitry, Commander Berbatov, and Commander Phikov already agreed on pressing the button, it only depends on Vasil now, once he agreed no matter who will win the war the only thing the world knows is that the end of the earth has finally come.
But, Vasil thinks again another time. Scared he would lose everything if he didn’t press that button. Even if he didn’t press the button will the world still be in a huge conflict? If he didn’t press the button would his life become miserable? He thinks for a really long time.
Until the 2 superpower presidents decided to talk about how to end the conflict first before they got into action, this was a blink of hope for this conflict to end. Both sides seem to be negotiating with each other to lower their weapons.
The heated discussion between these 2, is one of the most important discussions for the whole souls, for the good or evil souls, for the poor or rich souls, for everybody souls. Every crew member in the submarine expressed worries.
It has been a pretty long hour with both still having no final decision on ending this conflict, the discussion between both sides have ended, as they receive messages, they know that now the whole world's faith was in the hand of a man, none other than Vasil.
Vasil knows this is a really hard decision, he thinks for all of the bad that could happen, he thinks for the good that could happen to him or even the world. Vasil feels more and more pressure knowing the whole had already about these, all of the people of the just can watch knowing Vasil wouldn’t take this decision as easy as he can.
Vasil had finally made his own decision. The very final decision that he feels is the only right thing to do. “For the souls of everybody in the world, no matter good or bad, I would not push the button.”
The whole world felt a wave of relief as both sides lowered their own weapon including the submarine. Vasil had ended the most Closest point the world has ever faced for a nuclear war.
He had been making many wise decisions in his life, but that was the wisest and most important decision not just for his life but the whole world. Vasil has successfully lowered the tension of both superpower and the world where it never seems to be more peaceful than ever. For now
