## `**Summary**`

In the Andes Mountains, a group of hikers are hiking through an empty spot, when suddenly, sleet begins to fall, so the group decides they must hurry to find a place to hide. This is unexpected, as they had checked the weather earlier and had seen that the weather was going to be suitable for a hike. As they run a few meters ahead, under a sky full of black clouds, they spot a squat humanoid figure, the agitated group approach it and one of them ask it for help, but when they arrive they find a macabre scene. The creature was devouring the intestines of a man and parts of these were scattered around the place decorating the ground while this humanoid figure turns its back to them. It is seen that in addition, the dead man's corpse has a hole in its head. Abstracto sees that a kind of door formed by energy is a few meters away from the entity but the door disappears immediately.

The group of friends contemplates with horror such a scene and decide to run away, then the creature turns its head and begins to move abnormally and then disappears into the ground. The three of them continue running without looking back but they can't see anything, it is then when one of them is dragged under the ground while screaming for help, but it is useless because his friends can't do anything and move away. In a matter of minutes the second friend is also dragged away but Abstracto manages to escape as the creature does not chase him for some reason.

While this is happening in the mountain range, above, an airplane flies overhead without any of the passengers noticing what is happening. In one of the seats of the plane, a girl named Yukiko is using her computer while checking the map of the route of her trip. She plans to visit many places on the mainland, especially Easter Island, but must first pass through Santiago as she has another Japanese friend living here for a few months. Next to her is a woman talking to the stewardess telling her that she has a migraine and asks if they have any medication for it but the stewardess tells her that the company does not offer this kind of thing. Yukiko offers her an anti-inflammatory. Moments after this, she watches through the window as a plane identical to hers approaches at full speed in the opposite direction. This terrifies her as no one else seems to notice it. When the time comes, the two planes pass each other but no collision occurs. Yukiko is still the only one to notice this and her terror increases as she realizes during this crossing that this "ghost plane" is filled with passengers exactly like the original. She is shocked to see how another Yukiko is in that plane, sitting in a position opposite to hers. She begins to lose her temper when that other Yukiko turns her head slightly and seems to realize that she is being watched until the main Yukiko seems to faint from all the tension that has built up.

Meanwhile, at the airport itself, a young man is seen arriving late to his workplace and is fired after arguing with his boss. This young man named Anton is relieved and worried about losing his job but decides to rest for a while on the airport floor. While listening to music, he notices how some of the coins he had in his pocket come out and seem to float upwards. The young man, puzzled, looks up and sees with horror how all the people and the building seem to be upside down. Anton begins to question what he is seeing in despair. He asks other people who were passing by if they could also see what he was seeing but no one understands what he was saying. So he ends up more confused.

By this time, Yukiko had already recovered and was at customs as she goes to get her luggage. She also looks up and, without anyone else seeming to notice it either, she sees with exultation the same thing that that other young man seemed to have noticed earlier. Yukiko stares up a few feet away from Anton and they both start walking without noticing that they are getting closer until they collide because their gaze is on the ceiling. Yukiko thinks to herself if it was really a good idea to come to such a strange place.

After apologizing, Anton realizes that she also seems to see this phenomenon because she is looking up. Yukiko begins to regret coming here.
