The city transformed. The cynical crowds stopped their rushing. They looked up, covered in the soapy lather, laughing like children who had forgotten what play felt like. Mylène moved through the foam, a mess of orange hair and pale skin, her laughter echoing against the rhythmic "Waiting for... waiting for..." of the chorus.

In this world, the apocalypse wasn't a fire; it was a bubble bath. It was a reminder that even when the "Zen" is gone and the "recess" is over, there is a certain beauty in the mess. As the foam buried the cars and the skyscrapers, Mylène climbed into a blue Jeep, driving toward the horizon of a new millennium.

Outside, the sky wasn’t blue; it was a bruised shade of silver. In the streets, the chaos of modern life had reached a fever pitch. People were rushing, consumed by the "Santa Claus" of consumerism and the "bloody holidays" that seemed to bring more exhaustion than joy. Mylène stepped out onto a balcony overlooking a giant, surreal stage.
