After A Month...
On a remote island...
On the deserted island, a sleek, white circular building stands out, exuding elegance. It is guarded by armed personnel positioned around its perimeter, ensuring top security.
This location required this level of security because it housed the majority of the world's significant people at the time.
Inside the building, many people could be seen sitting and waiting for others to come, then they could start the meeting as soon as possible Because the matter in question is very serious.
After a minute or two, all the chairs were filled with people.
After confirming Everyone is present, One of the representatives stood up and started speaking.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining this urgent meeting. We have gathered here today to address a concerning phenomenon that has been observed globally. Small cracks are appearing in multiple places, and there are indications that some otherworldly force is behind this event," Said one of the old-aged men, wearing a long white blazer.
After hearing this, a young man stood up and said.
"Thank you, Magnus, for initiating this discussion. The appearance of these cracks is indeed cause for alarm. It's essential that we share any information or data we have on this phenomenon to better understand its origin and implications. And announce it publicly, We cannot afford to keep our citizens in the dark.
"That's why I despise young men like you. always wishes to make a speedy decision." said an elderly woman, clearly dissatisfied with the suggestion of announcing it publicly. "Even so, I accept the first part. As leaders, we should share as much information as possible among ourselves. But I disagree with making these details public 'right now,' until we have a whole picture." Said an elderly woman dressed in black.
"I understand the concerns, David, but we also need to consider the potential impact on public order and stability. If this phenomenon is not well understood or its effects are unpredictable, sharing incomplete or unverified information could create unnecessary chaos. We must strike a balance between transparency and the responsible dissemination of knowledge," said another woman.
"While I understand the need for caution, we cannot ignore the fact that citizens have a right to know about significant developments that affect their lives. By keeping information hidden, we risk losing the trust of our people. We should establish an international task force to investigate these cracks and provide accurate updates to the public." David suggests.
"That's a reasonable suggestion. Establishing a task force would enable collaboration between our nations and pool resources and expertise to address this phenomenon. It would also ensure that information is shared transparently while avoiding undue panic." Magnus said.
"Agreed. We must prioritize scientific research to understand the nature of these cracks. Let's encourage our nation's scientists to collaborate, share data, and work together to find explanations and potential solutions. Public safety should be our utmost concern." Another man said.
"I support the idea of a task force and international cooperation. We should also engage with relevant international organizations, such as the United Nations, NASA, and UNESCO, to leverage their expertise and resources in addressing this phenomenon. Collaborative efforts will yield better results."
After some more chatting, Magnus, being the representative, stood up with a notepad in his hand. Today's meeting proposals were written on the notepad.
"Ok, During this meeting, the following conditions were proposed and put to vote. If agreed, please raise your hands. If you disagree, please State the reason." Magnus said
—-----------------
1. Identify and Secure Crack Locations: Deploy resources to identify and secure the locations directly affected by the crack. This may involve establishing exclusion zones or restricted areas to prevent unauthorized access and ensure the safety of both the public and government personnel. Implement measures to protect evidence, preserve the scene, and conduct thorough investigations to understand the nature of the incident.
2. Establish a new organization: Create a dedicated team of experts, including scientists, astrophysicists, and military personnel, to analyze the situation, assess potential threats, and develop a coordinated response plan. This team should be equipped to gather and evaluate all available information about the incident.
3. Allocate Adequate Resources: In response to the extraterrestrial incident, allocate as many resources as possible to address the situation effectively. This includes financial resources, personnel, and equipment necessary to support scientific research, technological development, and any required emergency response efforts. Adequate funding and resource allocation will facilitate a comprehensive and timely response.
4. Communicate with the Public: Transparency and clear communication with the public is crucial during such an event. Establish official channels to provide updates, address concerns, and disseminate accurate information to avoid panic and misinformation. Regular press conferences, official statements, and a dedicated website or hotline can help maintain public trust.<Only after we deem it necessary.>

After looking at the conditions, one of the group's oldest members said,
"My dear friends, all this has become a matter of sharing the work among themselves. If we get something from these cracks, then shall we discuss how we will share it among ourselves."
Everyone nodded, including Magnus.
After confirming that everyone is on the same page, Magnus looked at Max, the one who proposed the deal and asked.
"Max, can you suggest how we should handle the profits then?"
"With pleasure Magnus, My suggestion is that we should distribute 90 percent among ourselves and give the remaining 10 percent to the public." Max proposed.
This preposterous suggestion makes even most of the greedy members frown.
"Come on, this much greed is not good, even for you Max," Magnus said, trying to digest what he had just heard."
"So you tell me how much we should keep?" He didn't even express regret for what he had just said.
"Let us keep 65% among ourselves and we will distribute the remaining 35% among the government and the public," Magnus advised.
After hearing this Max made a face as if he had just emptied a plate full of bitter things. But in the end, he nodded his head and accepted their words.
"I think everyone has agreed to these terms, if yes please stand your hands. If you disagree please State the reason" Magnus said
As anticipated, everyone raised their hands in agreement with the terms.
"Excellent. Let us commit to openness, transparency, and collaboration. We owe it to our citizens to provide accurate information, involve scientists and experts, and establish a comprehensive global strategy. By working together, we can navigate this phenomenon responsibly and safeguard the well-being of our nations." Magnus said.
After adding this new point to the notepad, he looked at it and thought something was missing… he realized the missing thing is none other than the name of the organization itself.
"Can anyone suggest the name of our organization?" Magnus asked.
"Men in black," Devid said with an eager smile on his face.
"No, I don't want to deal with copyright issues," Magnus said.
"Dimensional seekers," Max proposed.
"No," everyone said collectively, not wanting to make their organization sound like some cult.
"Cosmopolitan Interterrestrial Research Society," proposed the old woman.
"Nah! Too long and complex," said David.
"How about 'Interdimensional Crack Administration (ICA)?" said David.
Everyone agrees with this simple and practical name.
"Thank you, everyone, for your contributions. Let's move forward with establishing the international task force and implementing the necessary measures to address this phenomenon. Our collective efforts will ensure that we confront this challenge with the utmost diligence and transparency." As the meeting came to an end, Magnus stated.
Everyone got up from their seats after hearing that and started heading back to finish the necessary preparations.
