Daniel used his mind and spoke to the group after asking politely for permission. The whole group responded in the mind and said yes. He began to tell them where all the underground secret bases were located that he knew of. There were two in Wyoming, the third one was destroyed. There were two in Colorado, two in Idaho, and three in Montana and one in North Dakota. Arizona had one buried deep beneath the San Francisco Peaks. Nevada had its original area 51 and New Mexico also had its original area 51. Washington had two, both on the eastern side of the state. Oregon had one buried beneath Mt. hood. West Virginia had one buried under the appellations where the old coal mines used to be. Texas had two on the western side. These were all the ones that Daniel knew about. Bill let out a gasp that was quite audible. He spoke out loud and said this is going to be quite a hand full for us to accomplish. Susanna spoke up and said I think there may be one at the base here in Georgia. Kristyl spoke up and told them that when she was down in Florida and they tried to help the poor soldiers out that just before they died they gave me that dispance cloak and told me that a secret underground base existed in the northern part of the State.

“So I count 21 of these mole holes” Seems we are going to be quite busy. When we go into one of these labs, we are going to research for information leading to other places. Once we start cleaning up this mess we are going to have to keep digging every rotten little hole out”. Bill sat down and fell silent. Carolyne reached over and took his hand and held it. Bill smiled at her and looked at Samuel, “how you coming with those additional jet belts and dispance cloaks? Samuel said he had five more of them ready plus the original and expected to complete another 5 within the next few days or so. He then turned to Mark and Kevin and asked about the plane and the choppers. “Are those ready he asked. Kevin said that both choppers had the new dispance cloaks intalled and also the new stealth devices. The plane and the Choppers will be so quiet when they are operating in fact so quiet it will sound like a slight breeze. The new dispance cloaks cannot be detected by the military Michael spoke up and said the old suburban has been reassembled and it purr’s like a kitten. We installed the dispance cloak and the stealth device on it so any road blocks will not stop us as we drive through. Per your instruction we also outfitted that scrammer with these devices. Mark and Maria both asked about the time machine device. Bill told everyone that he had assembled enough for each team to carry one. Michael said “you know the tractors and trailers still have some parts and possibly enough parts from the junk yard to assemble another old car. Bill shook his head and said we will not have enough time at the moment to get something else together.

Our time is now for action and we must begin to move. Evelyne and Eryne have both been opening people’s minds through dreams and thoughts. People are waking up everywhere. All the animals are coming together. All life force on and in this world are connecting to battle this destructive blackness that has controlled our lives and all life for a very long time in this physical sense. The Military and the police are ramping up their defenses and searches. They are concentrating on the areas where they have lost machines and personnel. The enmity between them is reaching a boiling point we must be ever vigilant and extra careful with our movements. Theresa and Christine are going to operate the café and service station to keep suspicions at a minimum for this area. We have done some work up at the old Junk Yard to cover any evidence of missing stuff and erased all signs of any activity. The Garage we use the portal in has been cloaked and looks like just more old cars and junk. The reason we must move now is we have evidence that the Emperor and his military bulldogs are getting ready to unleash a very deadly virus upon the world. These dark creatures have been backed into a corner and are in fear and we all know what that causes.

Kevin and Kristyl are going to take one of the choppers and go to Wyoming first. Those two bases are known to have very deadly germ experimentation in process. Bill Looked at them and said I and Carolyne will be going with you on that assignment and when it is finished Carolyne and I will return here. Kevin and Kristyl will then proceed to Idaho to destroy the two bases there. The one that has any children left will be the first. We must release the souls and spirits in those children and destroy the flesh that has been corrupted. That entire facility must be destroyed with any experiments still ongoing. The other one in that state must also be destroyed. It has been the source of the Dolphin human experimentation. Any poor creature’s spirits will be released and the black creatures will either be destroyed or chased back to the holes they came from.

Samuel and Mary, you are going to take the second chopper. Jonathan Williams and Samantha Drummond will be part of your crew. They both are familiar and have experimented on weapons. They also have knowledge with germs and especially that Chameleon stuff. As you all know Carolyne and these two perfected it to work very positive. So your first missions are going to be involved with talking out the three bases in Montana and then the one in North Dakota or visa versa. You will then go to the ones in Washington State and get rid of them. On your way back you are going to take the one out in Oregon You will then meet up with Kevin and Kristyl and take out the facility at area 51 in Nevada. I am only splitting these up so more can be done quicker. I am not saying that you all can’t meet and take these things out as a group, might even be easier and quicker. That is your choice. They all looked at each other and smiled. At any rate you all are going to have the choppers. You are going to have rocket belts with the dispance cloaks also. You can take the portal devices if you think you will need them and you will have the time machine gizmos. I want all of you to be extra careful and don’t take chances if it looks like no way out. Kevin spoke up and asked about the Mini-guns. Bill said that those weapons would be used as defense and if needed to destroy the entrances to the bases. You are going to have to determine the minds of those that are innocent or consumed by the black creatures. Yes we have loaded them with plenty of extra ammo but they are limited none the less.

Michael and Susanna had sat by quietly and with enduring patients while Bill had outlined all the missions. Michael started to speak up when Carolyne spoke, You and Susanna and Daniel along with Bill and I are going to take that old Suburban and the Scrammer and we are going to pay a visit to the Base where Susanna was stationed. It is only fitting that she get first licks on that hell hole. The Suburban has also been outfitted with mini-guns and here is the surprise, she looked at Michael and waited for him to speak. He spoke up and said I made the motor in that truck to work on gas and/or Electric and used the military batteries that outlast the scrammers. Oh and by the way Susanna and I both outfitted the scrammer with the same batteries and did something to both vehicles so they are bullet proof. They all shook their heads with approval. Carolyne then said. Michael and Susanna and Daniel will take the Suburban and we have loaded it with other little surprises as well as all the other toys we have. Bill and I will drive the scrammer. By the way one more nifty little thing that has been added is the levitators built in, so our first mission is to destroy the secret base at this military facility and set free any of those poor police souls that are being murdered or experimented on. After we have accomplished this goal we are going to take a couple of the grounded choppers after we modify them and hide our cars and head towards that secret facility in northern Florida. Kristyl planted a location in everyones mind on that one or at least the closest points of entrance. We don’t know exactly what is being experimented on in these facilities or what they may have created as of yet but we do intend to destroy them.

Bill looked at everyone and then looked at Mark, Maria and Jim. You three are going to North Carolina and visit Lionhawk and Shadowself. You are taking copies of all the documentation, videos and what is loaded on the USB drive to them so Lionhawk can get it to the underground and it spreads like wild fire. Once you have accomplished this, you will also give Lionhawk and Shadowself the specs to outfit their cars and private planes with all the gear on your plane. You will stay long enough to help them get going with these projects With Lionhawk and Shadowself you will go to that secret little hell pit in West Virginia and destroy it completely. It is a haven to the black creatures. You must be very weary of this place; Lionhawk will know how to combat the black and Arie will come to help. After that is accomplished you will go to Charleston in South Carolina and pick up a passenger. Her name is Nancy Scandalous and you will be bringing her back to our home. Once you arrive back you will wait for us to get back from Florida. We are all going to need some rest to rebuild our energies at this point. Once this is done the eight of us are taking the plane and the chopper and we are going to New Mexico to destroy the base called Dulce. It is one of the largest strongholds for darkness. It has creatures that have come from other worlds and dimensions all living there. This is going to take all of us and Evelyne and Eryne will have to be there. Without them we will not succeed in the destruction of that place. The wormholes and gateways that are there must be closed. We are not ready just yet to visit those places and defend against that type of visitation. Once we clean up this world and bring it back to peace and prosperity then I believe we will explore other dimensions and worlds.

The base under the mountains in Arizona and the two bases in Texas can be handled by us from here or by those of you from the northern parts as you come back. Our last mission is going to be that secret little base in Colorado. Once we have gotten rid of all or most of the poisons around this country we are going to get rid of that major poison in Denver. This Country is going to become clean and free once again and it is going to be up to us to keep it that way. Remember, all the information, documentation and videos that Susanna gathered and absconded with are going to be distributed around the world. Daniel has more and knows where to retrieve these documents. And the information from both Daniel and Susanna has damning proof of world wide wrong doings to the peoples of earth. We all have some very daunting missions in front of us and there is no pulling any punches here, they are going to be very dangerous. Perhaps we will find allies on our way. We all know our enemies are going to be in great numbers. So in two days time we will begin to leave on our journeys. Our animal brothers and sisters are already moving as well as all the creators’ life forces around the world.

Vilhelm Klout and Helga Frankenstein climbed into their special customized scrammer and left the command compound as the sun was rising in the east. They both had studied the complete files and concluded that they would start at the end and work back. Vilhelm had disguised himself to look like a rich Texas rancher. He had colored his hair to a dirty shade of brown and dressed himself in the western wear of a rich Texan. The ten gallon hat on his head looked almost out of place. Helga had donned a wig that was silver blond and fell down to her lower back. She had also dressed in clothes that fit with the rich Texan ranch crowd. They both had mastered the dialects of Americans from so many different areas. In their case they both were speaking perfect Texan English. Their new names were going to be William Jackson and Hattie Jackson. The scrammer had been customized with mini guns on each side and a levitator had been built in. The battery systems had been replaced with the new higher capacity types that the military had in use Today they were going to drive towards the North eastern border of Georgia and explore the hot spots that were listed in the many reports in the file.

As they drove by the areas that showed in the reports of where the choppers had went and disappeared Vilhelm said they would have to come back and follow those roads as best as possible. “There is something up in there that hasn’t been totally examined yet so we will look. They passed the area where the old vehicle had been found and Helga said perhaps we should stop there and have a look. Vilhelm slowed the scrammer and said yes that is a good idea. He turned around and headed back till he found a turn off to get to that site. Once they arrived they both climbed out and began sniffing around. Anyone witnessing these two would swear they looked like a couple of blood hounds with their heads and noses dragging along the ground. It was as if there was something not quite human about these two as they moved. They had found the very place that the old Jeep had been setting and began to move in a circle outwards from it. When they looked up there was a strange darkness in their eyes with a small pin point of light. It was an eerie site to behold.

Vilhelm and Helga had been the third group of humans and the fourth couple in the group that had been experimented on with animal DNA. The deeper recesses of the underground base below DIA (Denver International Airport) housed the facilities for these experiments. Wild animals had been captured from the Rocky Mountains and stored in cages. The first group of humans was taken from the streets of Denver and the airport above. These poor souls had all died horrible deaths. The second group showed more promise as they began to perfect the serums but they all wound up either dying or turned into grotesque creatures half animal and half human. The Army put them all to death. After a few years of further experimentation a serum was perfected that allowed humans to remain healthy but have animal characteristics. These humans could actually imitate whatever animal DNA got injected into them. Vilhelm and Helga had volunteered to have Siberian wolf DNA with a mixture of African Wildebeest and Crocodile DNA injected. They had become the prototypes for this mixing experiment and so far were the only ones. They had been in this program for 6 months now with no side effects. The Army wanted to be sure this was going to work before they started injecting more volunteers. This assignment was the perfect test and if successful would open the door for some very interesting human mixed beings.

Yahto the bluebird watched the strange green beast crawl across the forest floor and stop. He watched the two strange creatures crawl out and then begin to walk on all four legs or so it seemed after they had found something. He witnessed their movements and saw the blackness in their eyes as well as a blackness floating around their being. When one of the creatures looked up at him and the blackness with the little pin point of light appeared too stay locked on him he flew off to another tree. The feeling of that look had flooded him with fear. From his new perch he watched these creatures continue to lope in their circles. As he continued to watch them spread out like waves on the water after something heavy fell into it, one of them stopped and let out some sort of screeching sound. The other one came loping over and they both sniffed around the area very thoroughly. The one that had screeched stood up like a bear standing and pointed one of its paws towards the north. The other began to lope that way very fast and disappeared into the forest quickly. Yahto watched the first one just stand for awhile until the other one came back. They both were standing on the hind legs now and began to move towards the green beast. They crawled into it and the thing crawled across the forest floor once again until it reached the solid black strip and then it appeared to flow away on the strip towards the sun rising place. Yahto knew he must tell his brothers of this strange occurrence so he flew up and headed north.

As the scrammer headed east on the interstate, Helga told Vilhelm what she had discovered in her trek through the woods. “You know the reports talked about two adults and two children leaving tracks away from that vehicle. After you found those strong signs of our enemy the Creator, I was able to follow the scent through the forest to a small abandoned cabin. The scent that lingered in that place was very strong. I follow it to just outside and then it dissipated. I went further and caught it once again. Something else entered the scent that I could not identify. It was very small and yet very large. At that point I decided to return. All of the scent moved off into the forest and then just disappeared. I dared not go any further into those woods. Something is in there that scared me. Vilhelm looked at her and shook his head. Yes when we were sniffing around that old vehicle trace I sensed something watching us. When I looked up there was a blue color that flashed away. I did not know what it was at first but sensed it was part of our enemy the divine creator. This flash of blue disappeared, so I thought nothing more of it. A little while later the turn off to the old State route came up on their left and they turned off and began to travel the old road.

[Lost N Found]

Driving on the old state Route for close to 80 kilometers they came upon a construction site of a new bridge. The bridge looked as if it could be passable but there were caution signs and danger signs approaching and on the structure. It appeared that no workers were in sight and the bridge could be crossed with extra caution. Vilhelm pulled the car over in a small clearing just before the bridge. Both climbed out and walked to the construction site. The creek below was running fairly strong and the distance across looked to be around 30 or 40 meters. Vilhelm sniffed the road bed and walked to the edge of the creek next to the bridge. He scanned the area for a few minutes and found a way to get down closer to the creek. He climbed down the bank until he was standing next to the water. He began sniffing again and started to walk along the bank downstream. Helga had joined him and both were sniffing and semi crawling along the bank. They both looked like animals searching for food as they continued to climb over boulders and duck under brush. About 40 meters down stream they both came to a halt, here they found a flat level spot on the bank and sniffed it heavily. Vilhelm stood up and said, this is human military scent and there is also the scent of a lion that is connected to our enemy the divine creator. Helga looked into the water rushing by and said something has happened here that involved these humans and the lion. The water has washed all signs away but I suspect that a vehicle may have been involved. Vilhelm shook his head and said I think you are right let us both get the scent to remember and with that they both sniffed around and then headed back towards the bridge. Once back they both crawled into the scrammer and with precautionary movement crossed the bridge. Once on the other side they picked up speed and continued their course.

MISSIONS
Kevin and Kristyl had packed and stored the additional things that were needed for the mission aboard their chopper. Bill had taken Mark in the transport to the North portal and out through the cave and showed him the landing strip or road carved through the forest. ‘This is where you will take off and land once you return. Mark was amazed at the width of a road that could not be seen from the air. Bill told him that this road runs for about 300 meters at the end is a very large meadow where the trees do not grow. You are going to get your speed up in that 300 meters and when you see that meadow coming up you will be lifting off around 50 meters from it. The trick is, to just be above the ground once you enter the meadow, then pull the throttle and rise almost straight up from that point. Do you have a problem doing that? Mark said he had done that more than once and it almost became a habit down in the Caribbean. Bill said “okay so when you come back with the plane, “you see that v cut in the forest on the other side of the meadow? That is were you will come through on you way down to hit the road. You are going to drop fairly rapidly to the open meadow once through the v. You must be down to 10 feet from the ground before you enter the forest on this side. You can then touch down and taxi to the portal and beyond”.

Back at the chopper Kevin had tested the stealth gear and Kristyl had activated the dispance cloak. When Bill and Mark drove up in the transport they could see nothing and hear nothing. The pad looked totally empty and there was no noise. Bill spoke into Kevin and Kristyl’s mind and asked how they felt inside the chopper. Kristyl spoke back in the mind and said it is like we haven’t spun the rotor yet. Can you here anything out there. Bill said no not even a whisper however there is a strong breeze blowing. Kevin spoke and said that is the only part of this that we are going to pay real close attention to when we get to our destinations. Mark spoke up and said where is the plane may I ask? Maria spoke up in his mind and said it is directly in front of you my dear. You can’t see or hear it I take? Mark said no and how does it sound in there?? Maria said It sounds very quiet. I was beginning to think maybe I did not turn the engine over. I bet if you stand behind this little sweetie it will blow you over. Bill spoke again and said “well now, we know all of this stuff works real good, The only thing we have to contend with is the wind factors from the engines. I am going to back up for about 100 yards and Mark; you go about the same distance back behind the plane. I want to see if there is any wind noise at that distance. We will slowly advance until the noise is no more”.

[Lost N Found]

Bill started to move forward. At 100 yards he could hear a sound that resembled a wind tunnel but it was as if one was standing on the other side of a 2 foot thick concrete wall. As he advanced the sound dissipated and the wind or breeze became stronger. So he thought well now the sound is louder the further away one gets but the wind is less. At 50 yards the sound had almost completely disappeared but the breeze became stronger. Mark had discovered the same thing with the plane engine. The sound was not all that bad but could be detected the greater the distance became. As him and Bill approached the aircraft Maria shut the plane down and Kevin turned off the rotor. They all shut down the stealth gear and the dispance cloaks, and climbed out to gather around the work tables. Bill spoke and told them all that the sound was quiet but could be heard at 100 yards out. The breeze or wind it you will gets stronger as one gets closer. but the noise becomes null and void. Mark has found the same thing with the plane. So it would seem that we are going to be limited with landing too close or too far, and that just applies to between 100 yards and 0. “Any suggestions”. Kristyl spoke and said “well we could land a distance of around 500 yards away and use the Jet belts with the dispance cloaks to get to the entrances from there. We are going to have those on any way so what’s a little distance going to matter. Bill shook his head as if to agree but Kevin posed a question. Okay we can land further away and travel from there to the entrance. When we are done we are going to have to climb out and get away fairly fast. Is that distance going to hamper our escape? They all looked at him and Maria smiled and said, Kevin you are such a wet blanket. Everyone bust out laughing. Kevin stood there with a smirking surprised look and then started to laugh also. Bill settled down and said that is a very good question and one we do need to take serious. Here is another, what if we cannot land further that 100 yards or even less?

The sweat glistened on Aberdeens brow as he worked hard at tilling the soil.

He dreamed the dream that someday, Mother Earths forests would dominate the landscape as it once used to.

"Agroforestry they called it..." He said absentmindedly to himself out loud.

He wondered why he hadn't thought to do this before now.

Planting trees on this vast acreage of land he owned was a back-breaking task but worth it because Connie was by his side.

He stopped every now and then to admire the pure strength and beauty of the woman.

Despite her slight frame, she could plant two trees to his every one.

She never seemed to tire of the work, it all looked effortless from where he stood.

He felt an overwhelming feeling of love in his heart for her as she tenderly and gently planted the fruit trees that would offer shelter for the vegetables and herbs.

He felt buoyed and ebullient within. He wondered if he had ever felt this way before.

He was determined to turn everything around now that he had left Big Pharma.

It was mid afternoon and they all sat there contemplating these two questions. Kristyl and Maria were sitting together and discussing alternatives when Kristyl bust out laughing and almost fell from her chair. The three men had been talking about ways to cut down on the noise and wind when they heard Kristyl laughing hysterically. They all turned and that is when they saw Carolyne walking towards them. Every body cracked up and guffawed with deep belly laughs. Carolyne had dressed up in full military body armor. She had the camouflaged fatigues on with tan combat boots laced up tight. The bottoms of the fatigues were tucked into the boots. She had the plate holding bullet proof vest on over the battle vest full of magazines of 5.56 rounds of AR ammo. On her side was the Velcro holster with the handgun stuffed into it. On her head was the latest battle helmet with the grasshopper goggles covering her eyes. Her neck was completely covered with the metallic chain male that was under the fatigues. She had the AR 30 strapped across her shoulders with the barrel pointed down in the ready position. When she walked up she stopped and saluted. She then said “Lieutenant Jamie Carol reporting for duty Major”. Every body cracked up even more and Kevin began to role on the ground. Bill just continued to stare with such a surprised look on his face. One could tell that he was on the verge of cracking up also. He managed to hold his laughter and said, well soldier, looks as it you are ready for combat and then he could not hold himself any longer. He broke out in hysterical laughter.

Carolyne was smiling to herself but she knew that this was not going to be a fun or easy mission. She continued standing there until everyone began to settle down. She looked Bill directly in his eyes and said. You know that this is going to be a very deadly bunch of missions we are undertaking. Any one of us could be killed. I heard the questions that came up. Perhaps another important question to ask is this. When we destroy that first base and leave are the other ones going to be notified and put on top red alert and if so have we got plans to get in and out with even more security measures being put in place? Sure this may look funny to you all but we all need to take extra precautions. Eryne and Evelyne both told me that they would be watching over us but they will also be helping the animals and all other life forces in this battle. We have been given the extra gifts from the divine through Theresa yet these physical bodies can still bleed and be destroyed on this plane of existence. So I have gotten these clothes for all of us to wear. The weapons are just an added bonus to get everyone to laugh we have other weapons that are far better than these things.

On the first missions to Wyoming, Bill and I are going to wear the uniforms of high ranking officers to gain access to each one of those bases. We will have the jet belts on under our jackets. Kevin, you and Kristyl will enter on our heels only your dispance cloaks will be on and you are going to carry the time machine. Each one of you will have one. When we reach the labs and inspect them for the experiments that need to be destroyed you will get this sign: she showed them both what that would look like. I expect we will be in there for less than 10 minutes per lab. We do not know how many labs there are at this point so this is going to be touch and go when we arrive. I almost forgot to tell you that the time machines have been improved upon and they now work without the blue beam. The only way you will know how they are working is to press this button and look at this readout. Bill and I are going to speak into the minds of the scientists to give them a chance to leave the experiments and come to the positive side from the darkness. The people are going to be the first to save or not. The ones that are willing to leave the darkness are going to stand and move toward the exit. The ones that are going to battle will turn on us. That is when you are going to send them into a place where they will be ineffective. We will discuss that further in due time. The ones that are coming into the light, you are going to send here. This is another modification made to the Time gizmo’s they can transport matter through time and we adapted the portal tech to them. Now as for the poisons which include viruses and serums of very ugly things, when you get the signs, record each into these machines to be sent to this vacuum atmosphere. She showed them the destination. Bill and I are going to seal the labs and set short fuses to destroy them along with all the research. When we are all out we will make sure that the bases are caved in completely.

Deb Petrovski was bewildered.

Her entire classroom today was picking apart the state curriculum and the entire notion of schooling institutions.

One kid even went as far as to say that school systems created wage slaves.

At first, she felt herself bristling at the comment but she held her tongue because deep down, she knew it to be true.

Just quietly, she completely agreed with them but it hurt to know that she was a "wage slave"... where did that leave her?

How was she going to "teach" anything when the kids were already teaching themselves everything they needed to learn?

She felt redundant.

The kids weren't being vindictive towards her either.

That much she reasoned.

They were talking about society as a whole.

Smart kids.

She felt that John Taylor Gatto was right when he said in his book Dumbing us Down
"But a vampire network like school, which tears off huge chunks of time and energy needed for building community and family - and always asks for more needs to have a stake driven through its heart and be nailed into its coffin."

She couldn't fight it anymore.

These days, Deb let the kids set their own curriculum. They were too smart for her and she knew it.

She would often quietly just sit there, assessing what they had to say, or offering a comment now and then. It really made her think hard about her future in the whole role of schooling.

She let the kids vent today because they were reinventing who they were on a level that she didn't even begin to admit to understanding.

There were times when she would find the kids just before the class started, huddled in a corner, discussing what appeared to be world events, or dreams, or something like that.

Who knows what those kids were up to?

She was just about to give up on the whole idea of ever being able to be of use to the kids until one morning on her way to school when coming around the corner too fast on her bike, fate happened to intervene.

Amanda Farcorf was determined to get her ex-husband back but the damn idiot had quit his job suddenly, sold his mansion and was living god-only-knows-how on that fertile land he bought years ago.

It was hers in her mind. The land and Aberdeen. Ever since he had his heart transplant, she had realised what a fool she had been to divorce him.

She could have used that land and built herself a giant luxurious resort.

According to her sources, Aberdeen was trying to win the love of that vile housekeeper and it looked like he was succeeding!

But she wasn't going down without a fight.

It was the best land in the valley, the perfect place for the rich and famous to preen and strut and parade around in, why, she could even add a casino to the resort. Wouldn't that be grand!

She had to do something...the money was running out and so was her patience...

I know this question is on your minds and I will answer it now. “Why can’t we just use the portal tech to get in and do what is needed? First of all we can not see the locations to think of a place to open to. So we will have to enter physically to find our way to these labs. We may and/or will run into opposition on our way down. We are not murderers but we will remove whoever tries to stop us. As we proceed and come across the guards we will read their minds to see if they want to leave the darkness and come to the light. You will then transport them out and to a place here that they can get orientated to. We have folks here that will be waiting to do just that for these people. As I say, our missions are to destroy the experiments and research and save as many that want to be. I am going to give you all one more piece of information that I can do and one other at this point and I want to share this knowledge with Kristyl and Susanna and Maria. As she was speaking they all heard a noise like a wind through the trees. Carolyne turned toward the North Portal and said “Ah our reconnaissance team has returned”.

Everyone was facing the North portal when the wind sound dissipated and the breeze picked up. All there hair was waving as if a wind had picked up as they all looked on; the second chopper appeared on the landing pad in front of them. Mary jumped down from the open hatch and Samuel followed. They both walked over to the crowd. Samuel and Mary both had the fatigues on and each was carrying one of the time machine gizmos. As they got closer, Carolyne said “Welcome back you two, come we must all sit in the garden and you can tell all of us what you have discovered”.

[Lost N Found]

As they all sat down in the Garden, Samuel had asked for Jonathan and Samantha to be there. While they were waiting for them the food carts started to roll out and meander around. Kristyl asked about Michael, Susanna and Daniel. Carolyne told the group that they were on the recon mission to the south and should be returning this evening. They had taken the suburban and drove to the military base. Until they were able to get another chopper that is as far as they would go until the actual missions began. Jim walked into the garden from the garage portal and sat down next to Mark and Maria. He had been working on more of the jet belts and had managed to assemble enough of them so that everyone on the missions could have one plus the folks that would be operating the café and service station. Jonathan and Samantha wondered into the Garden and sat down next to Samuel and Mary. Carolyne saw that everyone was there that could be and asked Samuel and Mary it she could talk about another gift that needed to be given before these missions got started. As soon as that is accomplished we all need to here what you have found. I know you have been gone for a few days and you are going to need some rest but we need to get as much info into all of us. Our missions will start the day after tomorrow so we will all get rested prior. Samuel and Mary both nodded in agreement and sat back while munching on some tasty foods.

Carolyne pushed a thought into Jonathan to stand up and walk to the building and stop. Jonathan stood up and walked over to the entrance and stopped. He turned around and just stood there. Samantha started to speak to him to ask what he was doing but Carolyne pushed a though into her and said you must go to him and give him a kiss. Samantha stood and walked over to Jonathan and wrapped her arms around him and planted a big loving kiss right on him. Everyone sitting in the Garden just looked on in surprise. Carolyne planted another thought into both of them and said you will come back here and not even know what you just did. They both turned and walked back to their seats and sat down. Jonathan looked puzzled for a moment and then asked Carolyne what she was going to tell everyone. Everyone looked at him with a surprise and then turned to Carolyne. Kevin spoke up first and asked what had just happened. Everyone was thinking the same question when Evelyne and Eryne showed up from nowhere it seemed. One second the center space was empty and the next both girls were standing there.

Evelyne looked at Carolyne and then began to speak. Carolyne was given the gift of being able to control the mind thoughts of others. She can plant a thought into another’s mind and they will obey. She planted the thought into Jonathan to go over to the entrance of the building and stop. She then planted the thought into Samantha to go over and kiss Jonathan. You all saw what transpired. She then told them both to come back and forget what had just happened. These gifts both Eryne and I have had from birth in this time period of physicality. Carolyne was taken to a place in a dream or so she thought and given learning. She has other gifts that will be revealed in time. For now she is going to give this gift to Maria, Mary, Susanna, Kristyl, Christine, Samantha and Theresa. You all are going to need them in missions you are going on. Susanna and Theresa are not here at the moment but they will receive this within the next few hours just as all you will. With that both girls began to giggle and turned sideways into a disappearance. Samantha appeared to be embarrassed but Jonathan reached over and touched her. She looked into his eyes and he said, “how about we try that without being controlled? Samantha practically fell into his arms and they both kissed for a long time. Carolyne smiled and said what a lovely couple you are making. Carolyne stood up and all the women stood up. They all walked over to a group hug and stood quite still for a few minutes afterward they came back and sat next to the men respectively. Christine and Theresa who were attending the Café both felt a rushing into there being and by telepathy from Carolyne new what had transpired. They both smiled at each other. Susanna who was with Michael and Daniel felt the same rush and telepathic voice. She just smiled.

NORTH TIER RECON
Okay now that we have accomplished this, Samuel and Mary are going to fill us in on the northern tier of bases. “Samuel you have the Garden”. Samuel spoke up and said, “I need to fill everyone in on the new modifications to the choppers, the plane and the cars. Just before Mary and I left Bill and I figured out how to give these vehicles fuel without running out or having to recharge. Michael helped us out and we came up with a fusion device that would keep these things running for 50 years before having to think about any refuel. So we outfitted both choppers the plane and the cars. The engines still look the same but will run on this device for ever it seems. Enough said about that for now”. “Mary would you like to give your account of the bases in the northern tier”? Mary stood up for a minute and stretched, yawned and sat back down. “Okay I have one more thing about the modifications to the vehicles. We also outfitted them with something that makes them move like a jet.

When we left here we flew up to West Virginia and scouted that nasty place. The entrance to it is on a hill side with over grown brush and trees. Mark, you and lionhawk, Jim and Maria are going to have to approach it on foot from about 1 mile to the east. The closest area we could find for you to land was roughly that far away. There did not appear a heavily guarded area within that distance so it should be fairly easy to get there using your dispance cloaks. I would think that once you physical get in there you are going to have to be very careful. That place has a lot of blackness in it so get in destroy it and use your portal to get back to the plane. Arie and Chephirah are on their way to that spot and will be there waiting for you to arrive.

[Lost N Found]

The North Dakota base is under the Theodore Roosevelt National Park. The entrance is located at the South Unit. Near Medora and actually in a grove of trees located just west of Cottonwood Campgrounds. The entire grove of trees is cordoned off as a wild life preserve and only government official’s can enter it. It will have to be approached from the southern edge and there is an electrified 20 foot high fence built around it. One more thing, there seems to be a small guard post with some Quonset hut structures so I would say that there are Military guards patrolling it day and night.

[Lost N Found]

Okay here are the ones that are guarded the heaviest. The two in Wyoming and I suspect because the first one was destroyed when you two and all the other folks here left the military high and dry and so fearful. The first one is near Powder River. The base is roughly around 30 miles to the southwest from the town. 20 miles from the entrance is a guard post with a very high electric fence. That fence stretches all the way around what seems to be a very large government reserve. We checked out the voltage and it is some where close to 1200 volts, enough to fry one to charcoal at the slightest touch. Inside that perimeter are constant guards in humvees with dogs. Looked like they were driving all the time and there was hardly any distance between each vehicle as they patrolled. We also noticed a sensor net and radar structures so they are also guarding the air. I would not put it past these paranoid freaks to have mine fields around the entrance or entrances. They are doing something down there that is very nasty and they are not going to chance another episode like you two pulled off. I am not sure you want to fly into that web of security. Yes I know the stealth devices and the dispance cloaks are modified beyond what they may have at the moment but do we know for sure that they will not be able to detect us? Bill and Carolyne both filed that info away for now. Mary sat back and closed her eyes for a few moments and then took a sip of some hot chocolate. Samuel reached over and gave her a kiss and said “let me talk for awhile” she smiled and nodded at him as she closed her eyes once more.

Samuel said “the second base in Wyoming is located just south of Banner. It is also heavily guarded. The guard post and fence are virtually the same as the one around Powder River although the entrance to the underground is only about 10 miles from the post. When we got through the gates we used our jet belts to get close enough to investigate the entrance. It would seem that they have erected a small building over it. We kept looking for something in the side of a hill that rises just behind that building but could not spot anything until we saw two white coats exit the building and walk to some cars and head towards that guard post. We still were not sure until a car pulled up and two other people got out put on their white jackets and walked into that building. We got closer and looked into the windows. The building did not have anything in it. It was just bare and that is when we saw the floor raise up and two more people came out and left the building. So that is the way in and out for those that work there. We were able to detect the mine field’s semi surrounding the building. Seems there is a narrow opening in that field and it is just in front of the door, where the cars park is outside the perimeter of the field. So there are your first two stops unless you want to hit the Dakota base first and then move to Wyoming.

The Aboriginals sat around the campfire late into the clear starry night. They were singing of the Dreamtime.

The smoke from the campfire carrying the sounds of the Dreamtime far into the night.

It was a call for all to come into the Dreamtime.

A call to bring the Dreamtime into this reality.

It was a silent collision that brought Aberdeen Watson and Deb Petrovski together. Aberdeen picked himself and his bike up off the ground, Deb was sprawled on the pavement, seeing stars.

She lay on the pavement and started to laugh wildly.

"What's so funny?" asked Aberdeen, a bit bruised and shaken.

"You'll never guess what happened to me last night." She said between the gasps and wheezes of laughter.

"I dreamed that I was going to meet a man about my future but on my way there, I fell off my bike and there the man was."

Carolyne said “so tell us about the Montana ones. Samuel told them that at least two bases in Montana appeared to be unguarded. When they had come across them they thought they might be abandoned. The one in Flaxville was nothing more than an abandoned mine or so we thought. We set down and just watched for awhile then some military suits and a couple of civilians walked out and moved to an old shed or barn that looked as if it would fall over at any minute. They opened a barn door and someone went in and drove out a rather new skimmer. They all piled in and drove off towards Flaxville. The best we figure is that particular base is very low key and whatever they are developing down there does not seem all that important. That one could be a piece of cake. The one in Gerou or about 20 miles South West of it looks to be something similar. It also appeared to be abandoned so we checked it out further and found that has more activity than the first one so after checking it will a bit more difficult to get into. Now the one outside of Butte will be the toughest of all three. We thought it might be abandoned also but when we got on the ground we found mine fields and barbed wire fences with no trespass signs about every 100 yards or so and we even found motion sensor cameras. It did not appear to be a very big perimeter of fence and after some looking we finally found the entrance. There is a very large clump of brush and we skirted it for awhile until Mary spotted an opening in the brush. We flew up and looked down on a clearing in the ring of brush. One would not notice anything out of the ordinary by flying over unless you knew what to look for. In the middle of this clearing is a large mound and as we were hanging in the air, the thing opened up and two armed guards came out and ducked through the brush. As we watched further they spread out and walked the perimeter of the fence. So that leads us to believe that something a little more important may be happening at this base.

Vilhelm and Helga had been driving on the old route and passed an old abandoned service station Vilhelm took note of it and continued. In the café/service station 20 miles further up the road, Christine and Theresa were sipping there hot beverages when a Cold chill made both of them fold there arms around there body and stand up sharply. Christine starred out the window for a few seconds and then immediately closed the blinds on the windows and turned off the neon lights. Theresa turned all the power to the service station off and made sure the old garage was just that. She turned and looked at Christine with a worried look on her face. They both could feel the chill and it was getting colder by the minute. Christine grabbed Theresa’s hand and they both scooted out the back door. Christine made sure it was locked and then they moved to the cloaked garage and both disappeared through the door. Once inside they moved to the back office and began to telepathically send their voices to those in the Garden. “Something very dark and evil is coming up the road from the west” we are in the cloaked garage”. In the garden everyone stopped talking and looked up. Jim jumped up and began to move towards the back of the old garage. Bill grabbed his arm, “you must wait we will only go out there if Christine and Theresa become in mortal danger”. Jim almost lost it but Evelyne stood beside him of a sudden and touched him. It immediately settled him she looked at her father and said Bill is right we must wait. Everyone sat in perfect silence while all their thoughts flowed to Christine and Theresa

The green scrammer pulled into the café parking area and became quiet. Two creatures crawled out each side. They each began sniffing the air and then the ground. The bigger one loped around the front and disappeared around the side of the café. Inside the cloaked garage Christine and Theresa were holding each other as the cold chill seemed to get stronger. They both heard the sniffing noise and stopped breathing until it went away. Outside Vilhelm had come around the corner of the café and loped along the back of the building. He hesitated at the back door and looked towards the cloaked garage. He began to sniff the ground for a few feet and then stopped again. His black eyes with the pin point light looked up and all he saw was the forest. He turned and loped over to the old garage and sniffed heavily around the garage doors. He stood up on his hind legs or human legs and walked to the man door on the side. He tried to open it but it was locked. He pulled something from a vest pocket and jimmied the door until it opened. He disappeared inside and was in there for about 5 minutes and then reappeared out side the jimmied door. He closed the door and moved towards the front. Helga had been crawling around the service area sniffing everything when Vilhelm walked back to the front. He asked her if she had found any more of that human military scent they had discovered at the bridge construction. Helga said yes the scent had been here but it appeared to move back towards that bridge so it could be that the human had come here first. Vilhelm shook his head and said that there was strong scent of other military humans and he had picked up something in the back that suggested that even human police scent had been back there. It all seemed to move off into the forest. I went into that old garage back there and I could pick up no human scent at all. Come: this place is closed up and we must go further this night. I sense there is more up ahead for us to investigate. They both climbed back into the car and pulled out towards the east.

[Lost N Found]

Christine and Theresa were both very cold and while sitting in the back office they heard the car pull out and move down the road towards the east. As it moved further away both women started to warm up. Theresa said “what was that”? Christine said “I don’t know but it felt black to me. Theresa said “yes I tried to read its mind but all I could get was blackness mostly. There were faint animal thoughts but I could not read more that something bloody. As they both stood a flood of thoughts entered them from the garden and they sent back thoughts of ok. They both moved towards the front door and it flew open. Jim rushed in and grabbed Christine and held her tightly. Bill had entered right behind him and did the same with Theresa. Christine and Theresa both broke down in tears from the shock of what just happened. They all headed out and Bill locked the garage. Once through the portal and in the garden questions started to flow. No one had any answers. Evelyne and Eryne both were standing there in the middle of everyone. Every body stopped speaking aloud and in the mind when Evelyne spoke. She began to tell everyone that what just paid a visit to the café was something that was created by the Army in one of there underground laboratories. The Army has opened something that they know not what it truly is and it will perhaps destroy them. There are two of these black creatures and as far as Eryne and I know they are the only ones for now The Army has experimented long and hard to create them and they are very dangerous to us all. They are part animal and part human and they are on the scent of us all at this very moment. If they find a way into this safe haven it will not be good. We all must be extra careful while these things are on the loose. Thank the divine Creator that we can feel their presence.

It had become early evening and everyone sat around eating and talking about the occurrence. Carolyne asked Samuel if he could speak more about the recon and tell about Idaho and Washington. Mary appeared to almost be asleep and Samuel looked at her lovingly and asked Carolyne if they could continue with the debriefing after they both got some rest. Carolyne told Samuel to take Mary to bed and get some sleep; they could talk in the morning. Samuel picked Mary up and floated to the building where their quarters were and disappeared inside. Kevin and Kristyl were both eating some fruit when Michael, Susanna and Daniel all walked into the Garden. Theresa stood up abruptly and literally fell into Daniels arms. Daniel held her tightly and asked her if she was feeling alright. She was shaking and began to weep into his chest. He guided her to a lounge and they both sat down. In his mind Theresa was speaking almost incoherently. He held her and gently spoke into her mind. She began to settle down and relax. Daniel looked up and saw Carolyne starring at him. He had heard in his mind from Theresa about a very cold dark thing that visited the café and how Christine and she had to hide. So he asked Carolyne what had transpired while they were gone. Carolyne told all three of them about two creatures that had stopped at the café and appeared to be animals of some sort but were also humans. She told about how Christine and Theresa both had hid in the old garage and how everyone down in the garden had to keep from throwing any thoughts out and everyone had to be quiet. What ever was moving around up top was very dangerous and able to sense our beings. Daniel shook his head and began to speak. I mentioned something about experiments with humans and animals. I did not know how far along they had gotten but I do know that a lot of people and animals died. Those experiments were done somewhat in one of those bases in Idaho but I think they moved them somewhere different. Carolyne said, “Evelyne and Eryne have told us about these creatures and we are all going to have to be on the alert while they roam around up there. I believe we are going to confront them at some point and we will see what happens then”.

SOUTHERN TIER RECON
Carolyne asked Michael, Susanna and Daniel if they felt like giving their account of what they found at the Military base to the South West. Susanna spoke up and said, “Before we get started I need to say something.” When we got back and pulled around to the cloaked garage there appeared to be an eerie gray haze in the air. When we got the suburban parked and came out of the door I sensed something cold and dark in the air along with that eerie gray haze. Does all of that have something to do with whatever paid a visit”?. Christine said “yes whatever it was that came here has left that floating around”. She looked at Bill and Carolyne and asked if there was a way to erase their sent from the portal to the café and inside while they were tending it. Bill spoke and said “I think that is something we are going to have to work on immediately. I can get Harvey Jacobs to get on that, He is into the Pheromones research and I am sure he can come up with something that will mask our body scents. I will also ask if it can contain something that would cause a reaction to something that may be trying to track us. Now for that recon information, you may begin Michael or Susanna or even Daniel if you wish, we are all ears.

Susanna began to explain what they had found at the base. When we got there a large contingent of choppers was sitting on the field. There were choppers patrolling the skies all over. The Suburban cloak and stealth devices worked perfectly. We turned the cloak on when we left here and drove all the way invisible to anyone and anything. Once we were on the base we drove to the back or southern area. The underground lab and research opening is very close to the black op prison where they keep the police men and women that are their experimental subjects. The opening is a patch of pavement that opens and one can drive into and down and then it closes again. The only marking we could distinguish was a double yellow line that began at one end an ended at the other where the hinges are located. On the approach end there is just a single yellow line and at the hinge end it becomes one single yellow line again. We think we can enter at a time when they enter and find the labs and all the research materials and destroy them. Then open our portal and step into the Suburban just out side the fence perimeter. Daniel spoke and mentioned something about robotic metal parts being delivered so they may be creating robotic soldiers or something down there. We will not be certain until we get in. Bill and Carolyne both shook their heads in agreement. Mark and Maria both stood up and excused themselves to go and get some rest. Everyone said Good night to them and they floated to the entrance of the living quarters. Christine stood and spoke into Theresa’s mind and said “before you and I go back top side to open the café we are going to have something from Harvey that will mask our sent an as Jim stood beside her she mentioned that the scent masker would have to be applied to anyone leaving the portal through the old garage above. She had caught a phrase from the creatures mentioning something about human military and police scent before the blackness engulfed that thought.

Michael spoke up and said “we managed to scoot into northern Florida and the area that Kristyl directed us too. Kristyl was dozing lightly and woke up of a sudden when that was mentioned. Kevin had been lounging and Kristyl had been lying with her head on his chest. When she perked up she asked if it was in the area she thought it might be. Michael said yes close enough. We drove into Tallahassee and left for the north border. We sat outside for awhile and then a military humvee came by us so we followed it to around 30 miles or so until it turned of on a back road headed east. The Georgia border wasn’t to far from that turn off. We followed it until it came to a high electrified fence and a gate with a guard post. We parked off the side of that road and decided to use the jet belts. So after the cloaking we flew up over that fence and caught sight of a vehicle as it was sitting just at the bottom of a small hill. We were going to land when we saw a sliding door that looked like the hill side open and the vehicle drove in. After that the door closed and it looked like the hill side once more. Daniel spoke and said “I never heard of that research center so I could not tell you what they may be experimenting on down in that mole hole. Kristyl stood up and Kevin semi woke and stood with her and they both excused them selves and floated to the quarters building and went in. Michael and Susanna both asked to be excused and floated off. Daniel picked up Theresa who had fallen asleep against him and floated off also. Carolyne said, “we all need some rest so we will pick this up again in the morning. Jim and Christine both were moving to the quarters.

A DREAM OF GREEN
Carolyne and Bill were sitting there getting ready to go off and join the dreams when Evelyne and Eryne materialized in front of them. Eryne said “Father you are going to need to go to that Junk Yard and cover scents and the old garage you have cloaked needs another barrier and with that her and Evelyne both touched him on his head and the surprise was very evident on his face. Eryne then turned to Carolyne, Mother you will give this to Harvey to add to his experiment of scent masking. She handed a vile of some green looking liquid to Carolyne. Carolyne took it and put it into a pocket on her fatigues. Both girls put it into their minds to not go outside until these things were accomplished. Eryne did tell Bill that he would have to gather Michael and Daniel both within the next few hours and go to that garage in the junk yard to keep that opening closed. We are going to hamper these creatures by making them drive to the 10 mile grade and investigate that area. Even though it has been cleaned there is something there that will join these two and it will be entered into there blackness. They will not come back to the junk yard until late morning. These beings have a power that reaches into the spirit realm but it is the darkness that they only see. They must be destroyed and the research that created them must be utterly destroyed to close the hole that is open at the moment to allow things from the depths of blackness to enter into the humans that are being encapsulated.

Four hours later, Michael and Daniel dreamed that they awakened and climbed from their beds, dressed and walked to the garden Bill was waiting for them. Carolyne gave a large container to Bill that was filled with a greenish colored liquid. It had a spray dispenser on the top. It looked like one of those old time spray canisters that people used to kill weeds with on their lawns. As they stood in the garden Carolyne used a smaller dispenser and sprayed both of them and Bill. Their dreams showed a greenish hue starting from their feet and completely engulfing their entire bodies. Bill waved to them to follow him and he began to walk to the east from the garden. They followed along as if they were floating just above the ground. All the rest of the people that lived in the underground haven were having a similar dream of being sprayed with a soothing liquid that spread from their feet to their heads with a greenish hue. The feeling was one of stepping into a warm shower that completely relaxed the entire body.

She looked at him sharply and shook her head. "YOU ARE THE MAN I SAW IN MY DREAM!!" She yelled to herself inside her head.

"YOU ARE, YOU ARE!!"

How strange and curious!

"Um..." She said quizzically as he helped her to get up.

"You look very familiar. Do I know you from somewhere?"

Aberdeen scrutinized the face of Deb Petrovski and searched the memory banks but drew a blank.

"No? I don't think so." He replied, brow still furrowed, still thinking about it.

"Are you sure I haven't met you somewhere?" She said insistently.

"Your face doesn't look familiar to me. I don't think so."

"Maybe it is my imagination working over time, the kids I teach have been running me ragged with their wild ideas but I was sure that I knew you from somewhere." she hastily added. She was afraid he might think she was a nutjob.

Aberdeen shook his head. "Maybe I just look like the person in your dream? I do have a very common looking face?"

"Maybe..." She laughed it off and shrugged her shoulders in defeat.

"I'll see you round." Said Aberdeen, hopping onto his bike.

"Oh...okay then..." She said, smiling and waving at him, the memory of the dream still sharp and fresh in her mind.

He rode away and she stared at the pavement for quite some time. Lost in her thoughts.

"Oh well." She finally said to herself, as she clambered onto her bike again. "I am sure I saw him in my dreams. I'll have to ask the kids what this all means."
"I'm sure they'll have something to say about it."
"The more I think about it, the more it feels like there aren't any coincidences in this life!"

"WAIT UP, WAIT UP!!" A voice yelled behind her.

"I REMEMBER YOU NOW! YOU WERE IN MY DREAM WITH A GUY CALLED NICK GREEN!"

Deb stopped and looked around behind her.

She smiled.

Bill, Michael and Daniel floated through a beautiful field of vegetables and into a large forest of fruit trees. As they approached a large cherry tree, Michael knew the tree by name and walked up and hugged Grey bark. The tree gave a welcome to him and Bill and asked who the younger human might be. Daniel looked up into the boughs and a large cherry bonked him on the forehead. He caught it and took a bite, it was very sweet and he enjoyed the flavor. He continued to look up and saw faces on the leaves and as his gaze lowered there was a warm friendly face on the trunk of the tree. It starred at him and captivated his gaze. He heard Bill tell the tree that this was Daniel, Theresa’s spiritual mate (husband). Grey bark shivered and a deep resounding laugh rang out. The Tree spoke again and said “I am much honored to meet you Daniel. Theresa is one of our closest friends she spends a lot of time talking to us and feeding us we love her deeply. Daniel walked over while munching the cherry and touched Grey bark. An instant connection was made and all the forest sighed. Grey bark spoke once more and said, “I see that you are on a mission and must hurry to accomplish this. It looked as if the tree turned and a limb reached out and pointed to a hole in the fabric of the air. Daniel heard him say “this is the entrance to that place you must guard”. They all looked and saw the old cars and other junk. It looked just like the garage doors were open and they were looking out. Bill said thank you dear fellow and we will come back this way shortly. Grey bark seemed to shake and smile. Bill said come; we need to get busy for a space of time. They all walked out into the Junk yard and Bill produced two more of the canisters that he was carrying. He told Michael and Daniel that they must spray the ground from the entrance to this spot. They all walked to the front entrance where there was an old wood gate. The old wood fence stretched out of sight on either side of it. Bill began to spray the gate and then the ground and told them to spread out and create a wide path towards the garage. When they reached the garage they all sprayed the garage doors and Bill walked into the garage and began spraying the benches and anything else that lay around inside. Once that was all done they all stood at the entrance to the garage and Bill told them to wait while he took care of something. When he came back he motioned them to follow him once more. They walked into the front of the garage and stood next to Grey bark once more. Bill walked up to the tree and leaned his face into the smooth bark and the portal disappeared. It now appeared to just be more forest for as far as the eye could see. The dream continued with all three men sitting at the base of the Hugh cherry tree munching on cherries as they fell into their hands and laughing hysterically as the tree told them stories.

Michael opened his eyes to see the most beautiful woman looking at him. His dream was quite vivid but this woman lying next to him made life seem totally peaceful and right. Susanna bent over and kissed him fully on his mouth and then said come on sleepy head we have to get up and meet every one to finish our debriefing and plan our mission. She rolled over and climbed out of the bed and shuffled towards the shower. As he watched her moving away he thought he might still be dreaming but got up and joined her. Daniel awoke to a beautiful red head. Theresa was bent over him and kissed him and said you better get up my love. I think you may have been more exhausted than you thought last night. Get up and shower and I will start some coffee. We are supposed to meet in the Garden in an hour or so. He climbed out of bed and she tackled him and began to tickle him. He began to laugh and she said “where did you get the cherry juice on your face”? He continued to laugh as he rolled to the other side of the bed and shuffled himself toward the shower.

As they all began to enter the Garden the food and beverage carts began to roll out. All the other folks began to arrive also. Bill and Carolyne were sitting in their favorite lounge and chatting Evelyne and Eryne were sitting under a trellis of flowers and there was something floating between them. They appeared to be touching it every so often and then giggling as it turned and twisted. Kevin and Kristyl walked over to sit down on a lounge and Kevin asked Evelyne what they were playing with. Evelyne spoke and said this is just a holographic map of the world. It is a puzzle and we are moving pieces around to see how different land masses and oceans would look. Kevin smiled and said I would like to play that sometime. Both girls giggled and popped the holograph away. We will be happy to show you how to make it appear and how to play with it. When everybody had arrived and filled their plates and cups with food and drink Carolyne asked Samuel and Mary to continue with their recon of the North tier

[Lost N Found]

Samuel spoke up and said “we discussed the Dakota and the Wyoming bases and we also talked about the Montana bases yesterday. So today you get the rest of these that we checked out. The Idaho bases have one that is guarded and it actually resembles a military installation. The other one is not guarded above ground. The first one is located just outside Ft Hall and is very blatant. It has access from a main route and the city is only a few miles. There are subdivisions all around this base so it seems normal to all the residents. The main gate is just off a local freeway that runs completely around the city. The fence is 10 feet high with outward bent barbed wire and it completely surrounds the base. There is another entrance or exit on the south side and it has the same type of guard post with barriers so nothing really looks out of the ordinary. I suspect that a lot of the local population works on this base. We rented a car and actually drove onto it. One can obtain a visitors pass and they have a very large museum located in the center of the base. So our recon was fairly simple and when we visited the museum is when we found a secret entrance to the underground experiment and research facility. What really tipped us off on that was the concentration of standing guards. They appeared to be guarding an entrance to another part of the building but we soon found out that just inside the doors was an elevator that could only go down. How they keep that secret is only through the amount of guards and the signage. Just says keep out and Danger, with those old radiation signs. Ha! So devious on their part, don’t you think. So we figure the best way in is to go in at night with the jet belts activated and wait for the right moment to enter the doors and the elevator. That will be the trick.

Mary spoke on the next one and said the second facility is located about 20 miles south of Paris. It is also a devious location but one can spot it. The military really thought they would be clever with this one. We flew over this old dirt road following a rather inconspicuous military skimmer. It pulled up to a small fenced off area that said Danger Keep out, with the name of an old mine on the signs. We watched this skimmer go through the fence and then into the mine entrance. Once that vehicle disappeared into the mine something very interesting happened. The ground appeared to raise and lower or something and all sign of tracks disappeared. The gate seems to be remote controlled and it all just looks so normal. Any locals traveling down this road just pass by without even noticing. That dirt road goes to some lake and it is a one way in and one way out scenario. We think that is where they do the experimenting on the children or did and the research is or has to be there also.

THE BLACK POOL
Vilhelm and Helga had passed the old Junk Yard and continued to a place that had been planted into their minds. Vilhelm had received a thought about some accident on a stretch of road that started to climb a mountain up ahead. He steered the scrammer around a curve and onto a straight run of the road. He could see the mountain in front and continued in that direction with purpose. They came across the blown out scrammer sitting on the side of the road and pulled over to investigate it. The two creatures climbed out and began sniffing around the car. Vilhelm stopped in the road just in front of the wreck and sniffed the ground heavily; He stood up and said “this has scent of human police and one civilian. The civilian scent shows damage of some type. I smell blood here and here”. Helga had crawled around the wreck in the brush next to the car and sniffed it thoroughly. She said “I smell the civilian scent in this brush and it also has blood scent. The humans that were here moved up the road in this trench towards that hill. She began loping off towards the hill and came out on the road about 200 yards from the wreck. She looked at the hill and then back at the wreck and loped back. Once back she stood up on two legs and said “the humans walked up to that point and entered the road and the scent ends their. It is possible that they entered another vehicle at that point. Vilhelm crawled back into their scrammer and waited for Helga. Once she crawled back in he pulled out and headed towards the hill.

Climbing the hill Vilhelm slowed around all the curves and slid along looking for something that kept pressing on his mind. He came around a sharp curve and slowed down. Something told him to stop so he pulled over on the inside pullout of the road. They both crawled out and immediately began to sniff the air and the road. Just in front of the car there were piles of wood chips and saw dust. Vilhelm sniffed all of this and turned his black eyes towards the uphill bank. He saw a broken tree trunk and looked back at the piles of sawdust and out across the road. There were small piles of sawdust that had been swept by passing cars so he followed them over to the edge of the slope. When he reached the slope he saw the broken and sawn parts of an old tree lying down the slope. He turned to Helga and said “there must have been a tree that fell into this road not long ago and something happened here that caused a car to run off this slope. We must investigate this slope and down to the bottom. The both started moving down the hill on all fours, 20 feet down the bank Helga stopped and sniffed around profusely, she stood up for a moment and said “this is where a car landed or something very heavy. It continued to roll down through here and she pointed to a swath of low growing brush. They both crawled down the hill for another 50 feet or so and Vilhelm stopped. There is the scent of human blood and something that is kin to us. He moved off to the right and crawled another few yards until he reached an old tree trunk and crawled onto it and walked along it until he came to a broken branch and stopped. He sniffed it hard and told Helga that it was totally solid with human blood. He crawled back up the trunk and jumped off to the right again and disappeared into the brush. When he jumped back up on the trunk he held something in his hand that resembled cloth and skin. Helga asked what he had found and he said it is human skin and clothing. It appears that something was removed here and taken away. Helga had reached a large rock near the bottom of the slope and began to sniff it and the ground around it. She climbed on the rock and looked over to the downhill side and jumped down there to sniff around and then jumped back onto the rock and said “there is something down here that we must explore. She jumped off the rock and moved to the right of it. Vilhelm had moved down and they met just to the right of the boulder. Something over there is calling to us shall we see what it is?

Yahto the bluebird had flown to a perch in an old oak half way up the opposite side of the ravine and began to watch these two creatures crawl down the slope. They sniffed around and kept stopping and standing on their hind legs. He had seen them in another place and knew that they were dark entities. The blackness around them emanated out and made it hard to see them even in the daylight. All he could see was movement of the blackness. They both looked like human forms but when they crawled they looked like animals and that gave him a very scary feeling in his spirit. When He had landed on the perch he heard the rock shiver and grown as one of the dark things crawled across its surface. Yahto heard the rock calling to all life. I am Granitchel you must listen there are black creatures here to collect another black creature. The black pool that has trapped it here will release it into these things that have come here to find it. Yahto sent a thought to Granitchel to tell him that he had heard and would relay the message. He then flew off.

Vilhelm had heard something and looked up the opposite bank just as a blue streak flashed over the hill top. He saw it and then it was gone so he turned back towards Helga as she jumped over some boulders and stopped abruptly. Vilhelm loped over and jumped the boulders and landed beside her. They both just starred at the black pool in front of them. Vilhelm smelled human blood but the pool looked like a thick liquid tar. The pool began to undulate and then bubble. Vilhelms black eyes covered his pinpoint light and he began to blink rapidly. He and Helga both were on all fours when something came out of the tar. It manifested as a thin smoke at first and then began to swirl in a tight spiral. It floated up till it became a thicker cloud and then split in two halves. One side shot forth and into the pinpoint light of Vilhelms eyes while the other half did the same into Helga’s eyes. As this smoky looking substance disappeared into the humans the black pool stopped bubbling and once again became a smooth surface of tar, obsidian was more the look now. The humans stood and began to walk up the slope. Once at the top they walked across the road and climbed into the scrammer and turned it around and headed back down the hill.

JUNK YARD BLUES
On their way down the hill and on the flat straight away Vilhelm mentioned to Helga that he had scented human military blood all over the hill side. He had also smelled the scent of a deer and a lion. It was quite confusing because the lion scent was the same as they had sensed at the creek and the bridge that was under repair. Helga spoke and said I sensed the same human military smell at that old café we stopped at and it was all over that hill side. Vilhelm shook his head in agreement. Something appears to be connecting with that café. I think we must pay a very close visit there on our way back through. We are going to investigate this old Junk yard first so we must be thorough. Helga agreed and they continued towards that goal. Meanwhile inside of each of them the black creature that had controlled the human General began intertwining into the blackness that was residing within these two.Vilhelms black eyes became even blacker and the pin point white pupil became red. The same was transpiring in Helga.

Driving towards the Junk Yard Helga saw the old abandoned café coming up on their right. She told Vilhelm to stop there for further investigation since it was mentioned in the files. Vilhelm nodded and pulled over into an old parking area. They both crawled from the car and began to sniff around as usual. Helga caught the sent of human military and moved towards the broken door of the old café. Once she reached it the scent stopped. She peered into the empty room and saw nothing but broken furniture and glass from the exterior windows. The old counter top had been partly demolished and the floor looked as it someone had fallen through it. She turned and crawled back to the car. Vilhelm had loped around the old building and found nothing so he had returned also. “Human military had been here once before but it is no scent that I recognized. The scrammer pulled out and continued on down the road.

Coming out of a dense patch of trees on the road, Vilhelm saw the old wooden fence. He kept his eye on it as they moved west. About 500 yards beyond the corner a pull off and the gates came up. Vilhelm pulled over and both studied the fence and the gates. “I will see it the gates can be opened. If they can and I open them you will drive the car into the yard. I want to shut the gates so no one will discover or interrupt us as we explore. Vilhelm crawled from the car and approached the gate. Something seemed a bit strange but he shrugged it off and proceeded to observe the gate to see if it could be opened. He found an old paddle lock through a hasp. It looked as if it had completely rusted so he picked up a stone and gave it a whack. Sure enough it broke and fell from the hasp. He pushed on one side of the gate and it opened about 2 feet in He walked over and began to push it enough to get the car through. As soon as his feet touched the inside soil he felt a slight tingling running up his legs. The sensation ran to just above his knees and then stopped. He thought about it for a moment and shrugged it off. Helga drove the car in far enough that Vilhelm could shut the gate. He moved to the inside of the gate and pushed it closed. That tingling feeling happened in his hands and moved up to his elbows. He managed to close the gate and found something to prop against it so it would not arbitrarily open. Helga turned the car off and climbed out. As soon as she stepped on the soil she had the tingling sensation in her feet and lower legs. She looked down with a surprised expression and then looked up at Vilhelm and asked about the sensation. “Have you felt this”? Vilhelm said yes he did but we have more important things to examine this just may be something in the junk yard that keeps humans from getting sick” “Shall we begin to search”?

Helga dropped to all fours and began to move along the fence line to the east. As soon as she dropped the tingling started in her hands and moved up her arms she passed it off but when she put her nose to the ground she sneezed and the tingling encapsulated her face. She loped over to the fence and ran off to the east. Once she was 100 feet to the east the tingling stopped and she did not sneeze again so she forgot about the strange occurrence. Vilhelm had the same reaction and he headed along the fence towards the west. When both had run the perimeter, they each met at an old garage close to the western border. Vilhelm said that they should investigate it so they entered through the large opening in the front. As soon as they stepped into the path in front of the opening they both felt the tingling again but kept moving towards the inside. Once in the garage they moved around and both were sneezing incessantly by now. Their eyes were watering and Helga had to stand up while having a sneezing fit. She turned and walked to the opening and sneezed some more. She hurried over to the side and walked about 20 yards away from the garage where she stopped sneezing. She was bent over trying to breathe when Vilhelm came trotting out of the garage and ran over to her. He bent over and tried to breathe also. Once both of them were able to breathe steadily again Vilhelm found a place to sit down and Helga joined him. “Something is in that garage and on the ground by the car that is causing us to react strongly” Helga was looking down and agreeing with him when she noticed a strange green hue on her legs and arms. She looked up at Vilhelm and saw the same on him and his face. Her surprised gasp and look caused him to look at her and he saw the same thing. They both stood and wobbled further away from the garage until they began to feel better.Vilhelm began to smell something resembling human police and military scent. He began to look around and sniff the air. The scent was very weak but he started to trace it further into the junk yard. Helga began to follow him because she was smelling the same thing. Moving through some old junk car bodies they came to a semi clearing and both stopped abruptly. In front of them about 25 feet or so was the body of an old Jeep. It looked identical to the pictures they had seen of the Jeep that was found abandoned. The human police and military scent was much stronger here and both of them had visions of finding all the answers at this spot. Vilhelm said “This is something finally that we can get answers to this entire mission” They both moved over to the Jeep and in doing so they looked down an empty area and saw their car sitting by the gate. Standing next to the jeep, Vilhelm sniffed the body and said this is definitely were the smell is coming from. Let us explore this further. They both sniffed around the entire wreck and Vilhelm came to the hood in the front. “Something is under here where the engine is supposed to be. Come help me open this”. They both grabbed the hood latch and raised it. As soon as it opened up something sprayed both of them with a blue fluorescent mixture of sticky fluid. Both of them backed away from the Jeep and began to violently throw up. An eerie screech came from both of them. They fell on the ground and continued to vomit and retch. After a while they both lay in the dirt and could not move. Their skin had a fluorescent light shade of blue from head to feet. They both fell to sleep and stayed there for a couple of hours in the prone position. Vilhelm was the first to awake and began to sneeze. Helga woke and started to do the same. They both crawled to their knees and began to crawl towards the car. As they got closer they could see the green mist close to the ground and both of them stood up and ran to the car. They continued to sneeze violently until they crawled into the scrammer. Vilhelm started the car and turned it around. He did not want to get back out so he activated the mini guns and blew the gate doors into splinters.

As the car rolled down the road towards the west both occupants were still sneezing but it appeared to be wearing off. The further away from the junk yard they got the less the sneezing became. The blue tent on their skin began to fade. Their noses were running wildly and they could not smell anything. Around 20 or so miles to the west Vilhelm pulled the car over next to a small creek running beside the road. They both crawled out and loped to the creek and jumped in. They found the deepest pool and both went under. They stayed under the water for about 15 minutes and then surfaced. They both crawled out and lay on the bank while the sunshine dried their clothes. The blue tint began to fade even more until it was almost unrecognizable. Every once in awhile they would sneeze but it became less and less as time went by. Their noses quit running but they could not smell as of yet. After gaining their strength back and having their clothes dry they finally rose and moved towards the car. Once in they pulled out and continued west.

Christine was serving some weary travelers hot coffee and Theresa was cooking some food for them when the familiar chill filled each one once again. They both new that the blackness was coming their way but this time they had been prepared and the abject fear was not so alarming. However, the two customers reached around and put their jackets back on. One of them asked if the air conditioner had been turned on. Christine noted this and said no as a matter of fact I just turned the heat up a bit because it is a chilly day. The customers both nodded and held their coffee cups close with both hands. Weak from hunger Vilhelm and Helga saw the café coming up and pulled into the parking area and both got out and headed for the café. When they opened the door the two people sitting at the counter top began to shiver. Christine felt the rush of cold and asked them if they would be more comfortable sitting in the booth that had the heater vent directly above it. The both shook their heads and Christine showed them to the booth. Vilhelm and Helga walked over to the counter and sat on the stools Helga plucked a napkin from the dispenser and wiped her nose. Both of them appeared pasty faced and looked as it they would fall over at any moment. Christine walk behind the counter and over to them and asked if they would like something warm to drink. Helga nodded yes and Vilhelm asked for a glass of water. Christine poured the coffee and water and said she would be back to take there order. She walked through the door to the kitchen and retrieved a jacket from the rack and put it on. She noticed Theresa standing over the cook plate with a jacket on and shivering. She walked over and hugged her and said hopefully they won’t stay too long. Theresa flipped the food on the cook top and loaded two plates, these are for those other two folks. Christine picked up the two plates and headed back out. When she walked through the kitchen door Jim opened the front door and walked into the room. He was wearing a warm jacket and walked over to the counter at the far end from Vilhelm and Helga and sat down. Vilhelm looked at him with his black eyes and it gave Jim the shivers. He asked for coffee and just sat quiet while Christine poured him a cup.

Deb's eyes danced and sparkled as she watched a flustered Aberdeen dismount from his bike.

He ran to her. They rocked and hugged together as they remembered all that they had dream envisioned together.

Arm-in-arm they chattered and wildly gesticulated, the fastest of friends.

"Now all we need is Nick!" Deb exclaimed.

The kids were sweltering out in the harsh afternoon sun but the love for the land was greater than all the toiling they did together.

It was a paradise. The trees were beginning to grow so tall where the Aberdeen and Connie had been planting, you could barely make out what had once been grasslands.

"How did you convince the kids to come out here and work together like this?" said Connie to Deb.

Deb looked surprised.

"I didn't say a thing Connie! Those kids took one look at Aberdeen and started asking him a million questions about what he was doing in his life. I swear Connie...Just between you and me...those kids acted as if they had read his mind...."

"They begged me to make this a school trip so that they could help out. And...well...here we are!"


"How do you know Aberdeen?" Was the next question that hung in the air. Connie was very curious.

"Maybe I should let Aberdeen tell you the story." Said Deb, a little shyly.

Connie turned to look at Aberdeen.

He smiled widely at her and waved.

Helga sneezed and took a sip of her coffee. Vilhelms’ eyes were watering again and he started to sneeze. Helga looked around frantically for the restrooms and when she saw them she slid off the stool and hurried over to the women’s restroom. Once inside she began to vomit again. She spent some time vomiting and then washed her face. While doing this she noticed the bluish color on her face. Something was wrong here so after washing her face again she walked back out and over to Vilhelm. He looked pasty faceed with that bluish tent also. He tried to say something but words would not come out. Helga asked if they had something to go and swallowed a large gulp of water. Vilhelm jumped off the stool and rushed towards the front door. Just out side he vomited and ran to the car. Christine watched the whole scene and asked Helga if everything was alright. Helga was drinking the water as fast as she could and said that they had caught something and they would be alright they just needed some food to go. Christine told her to wait a few and she would get them something. She went into the kitchen and a few minutes later came out with two containers of something. Helga took them and hurried out the door. When she got close to the car she vomited once more and then climbed into the car. Vilhelm had already started it and as soon as she was in he peeled out of the parking lot and headed west as fast as he could.

As soon as the two creatures had left and drove off the café warmed up once again and the two folks in the booth took their jackets off and everyone else uncloaked also. The very air seemed to be able to breathe once again. John and Nancy Keller finished their meal and asked about recharging their car. John asked Christine for a bill and how much for the recharge. Christine told him that the food was free and the recharge cost was nothing also. If you will pull your car into the service bay we can charge it up for you. Meanwhile you can enjoy some pie or cake with some more hot coffee. John and Nancy both said thank you very much and John got up and went to charge the car. Nancy questioned the cold air that happened and Christine told her that something had caused the air conditioner to go hay wire for a short space and they had fixed it. That seems to happen lately so we are going to replace it soon. Nancy said “those poor people that were in here seemed to be sick did you see the bluish tent on them”? Christine said “yes I hope they will be alright it is not exactly warm out there tonight but perhaps they will make it to that motel out on the interstate. Christine asked where they might be headed and Nancy told her that they were headed the Charleston. John came back in and said well guess we did not need as much of a charge as we though but thank you. He looked at Nancy and said “I suppose we should be getting on we have around 150 miles to go before we stop again. Nancy stood and put her jacket on and said thank you all. They both turned and left.

“I was very worried about you two Jim said, Christine walked over and sat next to him and hugged him. Theresa walked out of the Kitchen with sweat rolling off her face, she had stripped down to a t shirt and her jeans and had an apron tied to her. “You mind telling me why it is so dad blamed hot in here”? Christine and Jim both looked at her and broke up laughing; her hair was soaked and was hanging or clinging to her face. Christine got up and walked to the thermostat and turned it down. I am sorry dear lady, the last time I came into the kitchen, you were wearing a coat and standing over the cook grill and shivering. Theresa looked indignant then bust out laughing also. I could not help that, whatever came in here turned this place into an iceberg. Christine said “Well you should have seen them. They both were so sickly looking and the bluish shade on them was almost too funny. Seemed like the longer they sat in here the more blue they turned. Whatever we have been given is anathema to them. I think the girls have caused a nightmare for them. Christine looked at Jim and asked how the recon discussion went and Jim said very well and tomorrow morning the northern group leaves on the first missions. Christine told Theresa to turn everything off and start locking up, “We are closing early today. She walked over to the shutoffs for the service station and flipped switches and pulled the blinds on the windows and locked the front door. Theresa said “way ahead of you I already shut the kitchen down after those two pop cycles left so all we have to do is turn the neon’s off and lock it up as we go back down. She stood there for a moment with her hands on her hips and her feet bouncing and then turned and walked towards the back door. Christine flipped the switch that disguised the garage and they all walked through the portal and it snapped shut. The dusk was approaching fast and all was quiet.

TO BURY HOLES
Mark had awakened early, Kissed Maria and told her he would be out at the plane doing a check and would see her in an hour. Maria got up and showered. Jim had spent a very restful evening with Christine and Evelyne had hugged both of them before she went off to bed. Jim gave Christine a kiss and a hug and disappeared out the door after saying “I’ll be bock”. He walked to the plane and met Mark. He climbed aboard and began to check his computers. 35 minutes later Maria showed up with a large thermos and a bag of pastries. They had all gone over the course and where they would land once they arrived at Lionhawk and Shadowself’s place. They would spend a few days going over the course of action to be taken at the underground facility in West Virginia. Lionhawk and Arie would be the spiritual warriors on this particular mission. There were an extraordinary amount of dark creatures inhabiting the humans that were working there. This had been a stronghold for the congress before their destruction in 2019. The experiments and research were dark and unknown at the moment but the utter destruction of all was their goal. The plane was loaded and they taxied on the runway towards the North portal. Jim had reported that the computer systems were all a go and sat back drinking a cup of hot coffee and eating a delicious fruit pastry. Maria was communicating with Bill by telepathy and Mark was concentrating on the taxi runway. They passed through the portal and out of the cave and he revved the motor by watching the tachometer. Everything was completely quiet. The plane had entered the forest road and stopped. Jim made sure the stealth gear was activated before they came through the portal and Mark flipped the dispance cloak on. The fusion device was working perfectly so the fuel indicator always showed full.

Growldure the bear was standing in the near by woods when the plane came out of the cave and moved to a stop off to his side. He heard nothing but it just appeared from the cave. He watched it just sit there and then it disappeared. So he went back to foraging Mark watched the meadow get closer and closer as they picked up speed. He gauged the distance and lifted the plane to just above the road; He was exactly 10 feet above the ground when the plane entered the meadow, he pulled the wheel back and the flaps rose almost straight up from the wings. The little plane shot almost straight up Mark kept it going until they were above the tree tops and began to level it off. He brought it into a slow steady climb until they reached 300 yards above ground and then kept a steady eye on the terrain so he could rise above any hills and what not. The 300 yards was a precautionary height to cruise because all other air traffic was 600 yards or higher and he did not want to get run over or run into anyone. Jim had rigged one of computers to work just like the trackers and GPS gear in the choppers. He was paying close attention to that as they set their coordinances towards North Carolina and their destination. Maria had another computer station in front of her and it was reading all ground activity at the moment. Mark said “well we are on our way”. As they flew along they began to notice the police choppers at lower altitudes flying along the state routes and interstates. Maria’s computer radar system showed all of them. Jim’s system showed anything above them and registered it clearly. The little invisible plane flew smoothly towards the north east.

Yahto the bluebird, the Golden hummingbird, Arie the lion, Honovi the deer and Growldure the bear sat upon a lone mountain peak.

The sun was setting and the five sat with their eyes to the horizon and watched the golden orb as it melted into Mother Earth.

In dreamland, Nick Green was sitting with elders from every indigenous tribe from every part of the world.

Images and sounds flashed through and around him simultaneously.

The indigenous tribes who remembered communicated with him, mimicking and imitating superb and spontaneous Mother Nature - songs of the universe bypassing his logical mind and cascading directly into his soul.

Song was the universal language. Spoken language and speech had no place here.
It was a barrier to be transcended through the art of song, dance and instruments. Nick felt like a divine instrument to be played. Krishnas flute played on and on.

Images flashed, his consciousness seared and imprinted with the true nature of reality; creative juices of the cosmos unfolding and spinning themselves, weaving themselves through the divine glory of arts. Magnificence! (magnify the essence)

It was like the hundred monkey syndrome. The ideas and the collaboration built and grew upon itself.

The dreaming and remembering of a Heaven on earth cascaded on and on. The truth, sporing itself throughout the indigenous tribes like mushrooms shed their spores.


The animals of this world, so already innately tuned in and bound to Mother Nature, heard the call.

The whales in the deep oceans called and sang and breached in return.

The caged animals in the zoos roared and chatted and sang with delight.

Forests, deserts, bush, mountains, seas and prairie celebrated with all the sounds of nature in a cacophony of pure bliss.


The bluebird, the bear and the hummingbird saw all of this and they saw that it was good.

Nick felt his spirit being catapulted through the dreamlands and into what looked like an old English Tudor home.

A vast roaring fireplace and a very large overstuffed red velvet chair awaited him.

He sat down in it and before him appeared Deb and Aberdeen.

"We've been waiting for a boy like you." They both sang out simultaneously to the tune of Foreigners Waiting for a girl like you.

The girl had a dream of entering a mansion. The entrance was posh and she inhaled the scent of elitism.

Then she walked toward a room with black and white checkerboard flooring. She was invited in by a group of people, as well as animals that could talk. This is quite an odd dream she thought in her mind, yet she felt an innate fear. I choose not to enter the room due to research of Freemasons and their symbols.

No thank you, she replied politely. The leader stated that she should enter the room. Then one of the animals, a dog, spoke with a female English accent stated, I don't blame her, it is lonely here.

Then she woke up.

Samuel and Jonathan had done the complete check on all systems and were sitting in the chopper waiting for Mary and Samantha. Samuel had flipped the systems on to get the bird warmed up. The women had met earlier and went off to retrieve some additional supplies. Samuel and Jonathan had met with Mark and Jim earlier and discussed their missions. They watched the little plane taxi towards the portal until it went through. They had all gathered their spirits together and asked the Divine Creator for guidance. Samuel was sitting in the pilot seat and watching the gear warm up when Mary and Samantha climbed into the cabin and shut the hatch. Mary walked forward and sat down in the co-pilots seat and began her standard routine of what she had always been trained to do. Samantha stored the extra supplies and gear in the locker and sat next to Jonathan and they both buckled up. They were just passengers for this leg of the journey until they reached the first underground base and then they would go in with Samuel and Mary to identify the experiments and research so they could be sent into the vacuum somewhere in time. Mary and Samantha both had put on the jet belts and made sure they operated properly. Mary handed one to Samuel and said “you had best put this on now; I don’t want any forgetfulness from you”. She then leaned over and kissed him. He stood and strapped the belt on and activated the cloak. Samantha had done the same for Jonathan and as he stood Samuel disappeared in front of him. He then activated his belt and when he disappeared to the two women he could see Samuel standing there although he looked a bit transparent. They both deactivated the belts and Mary told them that when we are all under cloak we will be able to see each other and we must use our telepathy powers to communicate. There are four Time machine gizmos in the locker and something extra that Evelyne and Eryne created for us. We will carry it as a precaution. I was told that it is a rather nasty spray solution that can be used against human/animals if we should encounter any that have been made other than the two that are roaming around our areas. Our first target is going to be Gerou and then Flaxville. Butte will be the last one because it is guarded more than the others. Are we ready? With a resounding yes, Samuel had spun the rotor but there had been no sound, He lifted the bird about 10 feet from the pad and pushed forward toward the portal. Once through the portal they had activated and cloaked themselves with the dispance device. Just outside the cave, Samuel lifted straight up the side of the cliff until he was above the tree tops. He continued to climb to the determined 300 yards and hovered for a short space while Mary checked her trackers and other gear for any other aircraft. She looked at Samuel and said, “We are good to go my love” Samuel reached under his joy stick to a small box that had been installed to the instrument panel and flipped a switch. He said hang on this is going to be a kick at first. The chopper reared back or so it seemed and shot forward like a bullet from the end of a gun.. They all were pinned back for a short space and then everything leveled out. The air speed gauge registered a steady 300 miles per hour. Samuel had been told they could travel safely at around mach 1.5, just over the speed of sound. Another modification to the choppers was to beef up the structural integrity of the entire bird and when this mode was activated the rotor stopped spinning and became a stationary blade in the forward and backward lock. Samuel wanted to try the full speed out but at the moment they all needed to get used to the feel. The invisible chopper was set on a course to the North West and flew quietly away from the rising sun as it popped up over the edge of the world.

Bill and Carolyne had awakened early and sat in the garden drinking tea and coffee while they discussed the missions into Wyoming. Carolyne knew that there was going to be some very dangerous moments. She had learned in the dream place she had been taken into and given the book to read, that the germs they would be dealing with were from a different dimension and they had been brought here by some life forms through worm holes that had been opened by the military through ignorance and greed. The life forms had taken control of the top officials and given the research to unsuspecting, mind controlled minions to expand the deadly things so this world could be conquered, controlled and eventually all life forms living here would be destroyed and replaced with their kind. She had discussed this with Bill and he had become silent and then angry. Eryne and Evelyne both had to gather around him to calm his being. Both of them then showed him what he would have to do to end this invasion even if it was only going to last for a few centuries. Bill had understood and Carolyne told him then that she had also been given the way to keep these life forms from ever invading even in the future time. The book had also shown her how their physical bodies could live forever but she wasn’t ready to divulge that just yet.

After drinking the Tea and coffee and discussions had concluded, they both stood at a portal opening and stepped into a military laundry area on some base that they both knew in their minds and searched around for the uniforms. Bill found the 2 star generals uniform and Carolyne found the full bird colonels uniform. They both retrieved them and all the rest of what was needed and stepped back into the Garden. Kevin and Kristyl were eating their breakfast when Bill and Carolyne stepped back into the garden. Kristyl saw the suits and asked “where are ours” Carolyne chuckled and said you both will be wearing chains when we enter the holes. They all got a good laugh and Bill and Carolyne sat down and filled plates with some breakfast. After breakfast, Kevin and Bill headed to the field to check the chopper. Carolyne and Kristyl took the suits and went to the quarters and packed up more things that were needed for the missions. Carolyne had already gathered the jet belts and her and Kristyl both redressed into the fatigues. They gathered everything and headed out to the chopper.

Bill and Kevin had run through the check points and were both sitting inside when the two women hopped into the cabin and shut the hatch. Carolyne opened a bag and took the fatigues out for both men and said “put these on”. Bill and Kevin took the fatigues and began to strip and redress into them. Both women had sat down on the back bench and watched their men get into the fatigues. Kristyl watched until both were done and said, “Now don’t you two make a striking pair of military soldiers” They all laughed and Kevin moved to the pilots seat while Kristyl moved to the co-pilots seat. They all buckled in and Kevin spun the rotor. Carolyne had stored all the additional gear and supplies into the lockers and told everyone that when they reached a certain point they would land and outfit themselves for the first mission. Bill said they would be taking care of the North Dakota base first and then going to the Powder River base in Wyoming. Kevin had activated the stealth gear and they lifted off and headed for the Portal. Once through the portal and just before leaving the cave Kristyl activated the dispance cloak and the chopper came out and Kevin lifted straight up the cliff side. He climbed to the same height as Samuel had done and pushed off towards the North West as well. Kristyl had activated all the computers and was watching intently as they moved towards their first destination. Kevin spoke up and told everyone to prepare for the jet stream. Everyone held on and Kevin activated the Jets. The chopper shot forward and they steadied out at 400 MPH. Bill had told them that they would connect with Samuel and crew before they reached their first targets so that they would all begin the first missions together. The invisible chopper cruised at 300 yards above the surface of earth and automatically changed elevation to remain that distance as they flew, they flew at a steady 400 MPH into the dawn towards North Dakota.

"Aberdeen! Deb! It is so good to see you!" Said Nick with heartfelt passion.

"I am you and you are me." The voice of Arie growled.

"Arie!" said Aberdeen, shocked and delighted. He leapt to his feet.

He never thought he would see that majestic being again.

And there Arie stood, every hair glistening by the firelight.

Arie wrapped his tawny paws around all of them and a feeling of unconditional love permeated and flooded every cell of their being.

The feeling as each spirit merged together as One was overwhelming.

The room seemed to grow smaller as they felt their merged selves grow bigger. They were starting to fill the room like Alice did when she took that little vial that said "Drink me."

Michael had awakened from a disturbing dream. He was sitting out in the living room in the dark trying to make some sense of the very weird nightmare when Susanna came floating out of the bedroom and sat next to him. She asked him what was wrong. He told her that he had a very scary nightmare and he was trying to figure it out. She reached around him and hugged him and their minds touched. She saw the borders of the dream and squeezed him harder. They both were being chased by something that was very shiny in appearance. It seemed to be able to look and see them even though they had the cloaks activated. Daniel entered the dream and was standing at a door way holding the door open and beckoning them to hurry. Something fell from the ceiling in the corridor and ran for Daniel. He pointed the time machine device towards it and it disappeared. Michael and Susanna ran to the doorway and they all three went through. On the other side was a long corridor that was semi lit with low density lighting. There were red lights rotating in a circle and they could hear alarms horns going off. They were halfway down the corridor when they heard the door open behind them and two of the shinny metal creatures came through. Michael saw a flash from one of the creatures’ arm and heard Daniel cry out as he fell to the floor. He saw Susanna point the time machine gizmo and press the button, both metal creatures disappeared. Michael picked up Daniel and slung him over his shoulder and ran to the end of the corridor. The door was locked but Susanna opened the portal to the suburban and they stepped out next to it. The next part of the dream is what had brought him out the sleep. As they were getting into the truck the ground began to shake and they heard a low rumbling sound that kept getting louder when all of a sudden the earth erupted in front of them and fire erupted. A small nuclear blast knocked them all into the truck. That is when Michael had fully become conscious and got up. He had been covered in sweat and could not shake the dream. All the other teams had left the day before and they were supposed to leave this morning.

[Constance]

Just like Alice, they kept on growing bigger!

The room disappeared now and they felt themselves as One, expanding and growing until it felt as if they filled the entire universe. It was as if every being who had ever existed was now included in this growth, this expansion of being.

This union had all the divine grace and purity of a flock of birds on a path in flight. As with the morphic resonance of a flock of birds, so perfect was it in the combined energies that flowed here.
Birds wheel and dip in the air ever so effortlessly as One, a fluidic energy orchestrating itself in a dance of perfect harmony with the universe and thus so was the perfection unfolding in the universe for these beings.

Daniel woke up with a bad cramp in his left leg. He jumped from the bed and hopped around until he could stand without it hurting. Theresa had set up in the bed and started to get up to help him when he finally settled down and sat on the edge of the bed. She crawled across the bed and wrapped her arms around him and asked if he was okay. He told her about the dream he was having which involved him being shot with something. Theresa became worried and reached into his mind. What she saw was the same dream that Michael had experienced. She reached out further and connected with Michael and Susanna both. Seemed they were both awake and she asked if they could come to her and Daniels quarters. A few minutes later there was a knock on the door and Theresa had already gotten up and was sitting in the living area with Daniel. She got up and opened the door for Michael and Susanna to enter. She had already started some hot water for tea and the coffee pot was brewing. “We must discuss this mission more thoroughly and make better precautions” Susanna agreed whole heartedly.

[Jules]

Alice realized that she probably should not follow white rabbits that talk and keep track of time. Perhaps the guy writing her story was taking LSD and as entertaining as her story was, she was tired of living like that. Perhaps evil men would program children out of her tales, perhaps even her. No, Alice decided to wake up and take matters into her own hands. It is my life, she thought. Who are these crazy control freaks anyway? I'm changing my dream, my mind is my own. She had a goal of hiking the grand canyon and shouting up to the sky, what's going on... Just like the song, hey... what's going on? It was too bad she lived in an era that young women were not allow to cuss. Poor Alice wanted to change the world as it was.

The story is not over yet...

[Lost N Found]

Susanna and Theresa walked to the kitchen area and began to pour cups full of hot fluids Susanna started to tear up but held off while she talked about the dream and what it meant. Theresa wrapped her arms around her and spoke into her mind. “This is a warning we are being given to do something a bit different than we had planned at first. You three are walking into something that will change at any moment and it will make the difference in how you react”. Susanna hugged her back and they both carried the hot drinks into the living area. Michael and Daniel had been quietly conversing about the mission and had come to the same conclusion as the women had. They needed to plan some different strategies and movements to get rid of this base. The dream had given them a close look at the inside of the underground bunker and what was being created down there.

[Jules]

A song was in Theresa's mind. Oh Susanna don't you cry for me. All these dreams of underground bunkers were quite troubling, and how will we get rid of them? Michael and Daniel had plans, but through their quiet conversing would not tell the women. We can only hope these plans were for the greater good. Don't cry Susanna, it will all turn out okay. Have faith in your fellow man and the strategies that will soon happen.

[Lost N Found]

Daniel spoke first and said “okay we had planned to park the suburban outside the base on the south side and get in by using our dispance cloaks as a team. Something about that is not going to work as well as we thought. Michael agreed with that and said “I think the parking of the suburban is going to be in the wrong place to start with. I believe we need to be on the North side of the base close to those grounded choppers and our escape needs to involve the taking of one of them and then moving the suburban to a hiding place closer to our home before we head to the Florida base. They all agreed with that. Susanna had listened to Michael and Daniel and then said “we will need some time to install the devices on the chopper we want to take. Fortunately they are just plug Ins. I can hook up the dispance cloak in a matter of minutes. We have to remember that these are military choppers and they already have those installed so all I have to do is unplug the old one and put the new one in its place. The stealth gear is the same situation and Michael can hook up the box for the jet drive. I think the amount of time for this is only about 10 minutes at most. Getting on the base after we park is going to take the most time. I know the perfect area we can park. Michael said he would get the extra modules when they were ready to leave from the Garage.

[Jules]

Very happy with their plans Michael and Daniel were on their mission. Daniel wished that he could help dolphins kidnapped by the government for military purposes as well, yet he could only do one mission at a time. Michael wanted to get rid of the evil serpent creatures, but realized God created them as a necessary evil. Humanity had something to learn here. He wasn't sure what it was, but he kept thinking about it. The Chinese believed that a broken heart was healed by dragon bones, which are really dinosaurs, and Theresa could probably benefit from this. The human condition was complicated. Maybe we are just a dream to amuse God. All be it a bad dream from time to time.

[Jules]

Susanna had a discussion with Theresa. What if we could time travel? What time would you go to? I would want to see dinosaurs stated Theresa. What about you Susanna? I think I would like to go back to the time of Jesus said Susanna. I know I would not speak the same language, but I would really like to see Him angry at the Pharisees, that would be cool. Yes stated Theresa, it would be. Righteous indignation in action.

[Lost N Found]

Susanna spoke this time and said “getting into that underground bunker is our next main goal. We thought we would just wait for the road to open up and then walk down the tunnel. I don’t like that particular way to enter. I am fairly sure there is another way in and my suspicion is that it is that small office building we saw to the left of the road. That has to be where the operating gear is located to open the road. Daniel spoke then and said “I think you are right on that Susanna, I remember something about that building when I was stationed there but it was always off limits to most of us. The General and his immediate staff were always going over there and no one really thought much about that. Susanna said “I remember the General going over there quite often but he never asked me to come with him. I watched him walk towards the south entrance and a number of other officers joining him”. She stood up and told everyone that she would be right back. She walked out the door and was gone for about 3 minutes or so before she came back in. She was carrying three Army suits. She walked over to Michael and handed him one and then to Daniel and kept the third for herself. Michael pulled the plastic bag from his and his eye grew big with surprise. What he was holding was a 1 star general’s outfit complete with the hat and shoes. Daniel opened his and it was another Generals suit but this time a Major general. Susanna pulled her suit out and it was a full bird colonel suit. They all examined the clothes and Daniel said “so! looks like we are going to do a bit of impersonating and just walk into that place like we should be there”? Susanna looked at them and said “that is exactly what we are going to do”. I have one more surprise for all of us. Theresa had left the room and now walked out of the bedroom fully dressed in the uniform of a Lieutenant Colonel. Susanna looked at Daniels face as he watched his wife walk from the bedroom. He almost fell over but kept himself upright. Susanna spoke up and said “Gentlemen I would like you to meet our fourth team member” Daniel turned and then turned back and started to say something but Theresa shushed him by walking over and kissing him. She backed away and said Joanna and Sarah have said they will help Christine watch the café while we are gone. Susanna told them that Theresa is the most experienced with telepathy and she will be putting the right thoughts into the guards and others.

[Lost N Found]

Daniel just smiled and hugged his wife she made a very striking military figure. “Okay we have a way in and we have the suburban taken care of and we have the chopper to get to after it is ready. Being down inside and getting rid of the creepy things and the research then blowing this place to crap is our next thing to give thought to. Susanna looked at Michael and said “you had more in that dream than we have heard at this point, you want to explain it”? Michael shook his head and began to speak. “We are not going to blow this place up. We are going to make sure that any full human police they have locked up topside are going to escape and any we find in the hole that haven’t been touched yet are going to get out also. In my dream, part of our mission was to save as many as possible. The ones that have been experimented on and are or have become those machine things we are going to send them away in time and places where they will not survive. The research and development center will be removed to a place that will not ever be found again. I was given these co ordinances and times in my dream. So here they are and everyone took note in their minds of all places and times. Susanna spoke and said we all must get into our uniforms. Don’t forget the jet belts. We will be cloaked until we get the chopper refitted and get to the little building with the entrance. Theresa sat down on the lounge and waited for all of them to strip and re dress themselves. She found it rather amusing to see all the military figures standing in her living quarters. As they all finished dressing there was a quiet knock on the door and Theresa walked over and opened it. As soon as the door opened in came three food carts and stopped in the middle of the room. Theresa looked at everyone and said “Breakfast is served” The all filled up their plates and began to enjoy the food.

[Lost N Found]

Michael finished his food and filled his cup with some more coffee and said “This will be how we work our escape from the bunker. Forget about running down any corridors that is how we get into trouble. Once we have freed the humans and they are headed out. We will make all the creepy things disappear and get rid of the R&D. Theresa and Daniel will open a portal to the Suburban and drive it to the east. You will go to the turn off on the old state route to this place and just beyond the interstate about two miles there is an old back logging road. You will turn into that and go about 200 yards to a large clump of trees and we will pick you up there. Leave the dispance cloak on and the stealth gear running. That way the truck is completely hidden. Susanna and I will open a portal to the chopper and get it into the air and follow you. We will be just overhead to make sure you make it to that destination. I will mention this now so everyone knows. When we re fit the chopper we will activate the dispance cloak and the stealth gear so no one mistakenly gets into it. The humans we are going to free will know to go to the chopper pads and steal what they can. When that begins to happen that base is going to go red and there will probably be shooting and what not so hopefully we get out before all that starts. The underground bunker and the holding cells for the misfortunate police will be demolished but it will not show from the outside. The entrances will be completely closed off. After we pick you two up, we will be heading to the Florida site. At precisely 500 am in the now time, The four military personnel climbed into the suburban, activated the dispance cloak and the stealth gear, backed out of the cloaked garage and moved to the front of the café. Michael looked at everyone and stated. “What a fine bunch of officers we make” Everyone smiled and they drove off down the road towards the west.

THE LION WARRIORS
Arie and Chephirah had moved from one spot to another while watching the entrance to the underground dark place. Arie had felt the blackness emanating from beneath. Chephirah had felt it and moved closer to the opening to see if any humans where exiting or entering When she came back to Arie she told him that no one appeared to be leaving or entering. They had been there for 7 days when a human machine crawled up from the east and parked in a covered area. Three humans had gotten out and made their way to the hill side. As the two lions watched, the hill side began to slide open. It opened just enough to let the humans enter and then it closed again. They both took all this in and Arie said “did you see the darkness surrounding those humans”. Chephirah said “yes I saw and that is frightening” Arie spoke and said we have been instructed to wait here for another spiritual brother warrior, there will be two perhaps three other humans with him. That is when we will go into that hole and begin to do battle with the darkness. Chephirah rubbed her face against Aries’ and they continued to watch the area where the mountain opened.

Scarred by time and the elements, the broad canopy of a gnarly old tree that seemed bent on twisting itself into the most irregular shape was where Connie and Deb sought shelter from the downpour of rain.

Connie put her arm around Deb. It seemed like they had been friends for the longest of times.

Deb sighed. "It was the kids. I'd been listening to them for some time as they talked about their dreams and what they said seemed so impossible. However, I could see before my very eyes how these kids were changing and growing. They were experiencing growth on every level of their being. I can't claim that it had anything to do with me."

"What they did seems unbelievable but true. Somehow they managed to hook into their dreams and maintain that state whilst in the waking world."

"So many of my students are now doing what fuels their passion and it has led them down the most incredible pathways of learning and growth. It was scary to think that I was almost numb from a lifetime of conditioning and programming and these kids taught me how to break out of it. Kids!"

[Constance]

"And that is how I first met Nick and Aberdeen."

"The kids showed me first how to lucid dream and then how to have Out-of-body experiences. One of them first learned how to do this on an old website where people met up and talked, I think it was about where science meets spirituality run by a guy named Sandy? Anyhow, it was a survivor of the last internet crash of 2122. In some crazy timeline spin, it managed to survive and infiltrate the present."

"Some other kid in Japan had come to Jarrod in his dreams and told him about it."

"Anyway, Jarrod showed me how to do it and one night in my dreams, one of the kids introduced me to Nick."

"Nick has been creating this gargantuan dream network. It is so spontaneous and so fast, it is faster than the fastest computer Connie."

"The military cannot come within a hair's whisker of it. Not even a Nick in the razor blade of life. Pardon the pun!" Deb laughed at her own joke, more out of self-consciousness than anything and then continued.

"There are people out there who think that AI will put an end to it all but....and this is the biggest but of all... what they don't realise is that in the game of life and the play of consciousness, our consciousness is evolving to get beyond anything that can be touched, we just need to put back what is missing in our lives."

"And...because we are a part of Mother Earth's consciousness, ALL the animals and ALL of the plant life are here to guide us and keep us uplifted. They are our teachers. Man. It almost does my head and heart in just to think about this."

"Somehow, this is all tied in with our neurology and our imaginations because even the greatest scientists today still haven't figured out exactly what the imagination is and what it is truly capable of. That's why the military and others still continue to experiment on us because if they had figured it all out, they wouldn't need to do the experiments! And...maybe also why others are so keen to mix our genetics with theirs."

"Whenever I think about the Placebo effect, it just blows my mind how the body can create pharmacopeia equal to or greater than any artificial drug or plant that is available. I was reading about this in a book called You are the Placebo by this old guy called Joe Dispenza."

"This unknown to the known is our greatest ally. This is the game of life and play of consciousness that source created throughout consciousness so that all beings eventually evolve. This is no secret. All the masters have talked about it in roundabout ways but Nick somehow figured it out and now the kids have figured it out too. Nick just joined the dots and made the connection."

The little plane came in over the tree tops and dropped onto the road that ran through a large clearing. Mark touched down so smoothly that it felt like they were still floating in the air as he taxied to a spot near the forest and pulled the plane off the road and parked it close in to the trees. Lionhawk and Shadowself’s house was just a short walk of about 200 meters through the woods. It had been raining and the meadow was still fairly damp when they climbed out of the plane. Mark and Maria had left the stealth gear on and the dispance cloak activated. They could hear the trees still dripping rain water and the sound was calming. As they began to walk the road through the woods they heard a chainsaw buzzing away. When they got halfway through the woods towards the house the chainsaw stopped and a dog started barking. As they continued up the road they heard a woman’s voice calling the dog, “Buster you get back up here right now” Maria walked a little faster until she saw the dog running towards them She stopped and bent down to one knee and called. Buster come buster. The little brown and white bull terrier trotted up and hopped into Maria’s lap knocking her over. She had a hold of him and he was licking her face profusely. She was saying “It has been awhile my little friend”. Mark walked over and took her hand to help her up and began to pet Buster. The dog shook himself and began to bump against Mark. They all began to walk the rest of the way to the house.

[Lost N Found]

They came out of the woods into a clearing and saw the house sitting in the middle with some trees growing around it. A tall dark haired slender woman was standing just outside a gate to a wood picket fence that appeared to surround the house. She was smiling and called Buster to come up. Buster looked at her and then looked at Maria and Maria shooed him to go. He ran up to the woman and hopped into her arms. Mark, Maria and Jim continued up to the house and Maria walked over and hugged the woman. She said “It has been so long Shadowself you are looking great” Mark walked up and hugged her and she said “we have been expecting you. We were starting to get a bit worried”. Mark turned and said “this is Jim Maddock he is the father of Evelyne”. Shadowself walked over and gave him a friendly hug and said “we are glad to meet you. Evelyne has showed us you in the dreams”. Mark asked about Lionhawk and just about that time a tall Native American gentleman walked around the corner of the house and smiled as he walked over and shook hands and hugged Mark. He then turned and gave a big friendly hug to Maria and turned to Jim. “I know you are Evelyne’s father and I am very glad to meet you. “The pleasure is all mine” Jim said, I have heard so much about you and Shadowself from Mark and Maria, Christine and I have wanted to meet you two for a few years now”. Lionhawk asked if Mark and Jim would like to help him bring in some logs for the fire. They both said yes and the three men walked around the house to fetch the wood as the two women and 1 dancing dog went into the house.

[Lost N Found]

Shadowself and Maria had entered the kitchen and Shadowself asked if she would like a cup of coffee. Maria had always liked Shadowself’s coffee, she made the best. Shadowself had gathered up cups and fixings and put everything on a serving plate and Maria had grabbed the carafe and they both headed for the living room. Walking through double doors they stepped into a good sized living space. Maria halted and just looked around for a few moments. The room was round in shape. There were windows and sliding glass doors on the south and north areas. The west side of the curve had two double doors apparently leading to sleeping quarters and other parts of the home. It was the living room that had her stunned and apparently Mark and Jim too. The room was around 32 feet in diameter the exterior walls were at least 9 feet high before a flat ceiling ringed the entire circle that extended about 7 feet in from the outside walls. There were 10” diameter vertical logs supporting heavy timber beams circling the entire room and. a dome rose from the beams and covered the rest of the structure. The dome was made of a material that was transparent and the room appeared to be as if it was open to the natural daylight. Maria saw the three men standing around a fire pit in the center of the room. The floor had been sunk about 24” at around 8 feet from the exterior walls. There were steps built into the east and west curves that led down to lower level. The north and south curves had built in cabinets with counter tops. Directly in the center was the fire pit and it had been sunk to contain the logs. The pit looked to be about 4 feet in diameter. There were comfortably looking lounge seats around the pit and off to where one of the cabinets had been build was an open bin that was stacked full of logs. A fire was burning and as she watched, Lionhawk added another log. She watched the smoke rise and appear to go straight through the top of the dome. Around the out side perimeter there were various lounge seats and bookcases next to them built into the walls that did not have windows or doors. The book cases looked full with many colored book bindings. She could also see a very large looking patio to the north side with a number of benches and trees and shrubs. Shadowself walked over to the edge where the steps went down and motioned for her to follow. They both traversed the steps and Shadowself carried the tray of cups and coffee enhancers to one of the counter tops and set it down. She pointed to a hot plate built in and said “you can set the carafe on this” Maria carried it over and sat it down; She then turned around once more and said “this is beautiful and simply amazing. You have been quite busy building things since the last time we were here”. The men had all sat down but stood up and came over to get some of Shadowself’s famous coffee. Once they all had cups of coffee and sat back down around the fire pit. Lionhawk asked about their journey and also about the mission. He had a stick with feathers next to him and passed it to Mark first.

[Lost N Found]

Mark told Lionhawk and Shadowself about their plane that was sitting at the edge of the trees and how it was concealed. “We will be using it to get to the bunker in West Virginia. As for the trip up here it was quite pleasant. We did not need to use the Jet engine. But if we have to it is available and that little plane has been structurally reinforced to use it. Jim here is very good with computers and can work magic on them so we thought about doing some good stuff with yours”. Mark passed the stick to Jim. Jim took it and began to speak about the extra stealth gear and dispance cloaks they had brought to outfit both cars for Lionhawk and Shadowself. Once those vehicles are retro fitted you will be able to go any where without being seen in any way. He reached into his pocket and pulled out three USB drives two of them looked different than the first one. The second two had a little red button on the top. He handed the standard one to Shadowself and said “Plug this into your computer or each computer you have and when the drive comes up on your monitor, Click “Enable” It will rebuild your system and transfer all your data into the new system. The New system will hide you completely away from the prying eyes of the police state. The entire underground has recently switched over to this new system. The police and Military are going bonkers because this drops your system completely from existence to them.

Nick was preparing himself to jump into the dream smoke as they danced and sang around the fire.

He could barely see anything for the thick haze that surrounded him. The smoke was beginning to merge with him.

The music was trancelike.

The rhythmic beat of the drums grew louder inside his head and the heat from the fire filled his lungs, like burning fluid.

The beat of the drums was the warriors heartbeat thumping in time to his heart.

A medicine man yelled to him in ancient tongue. "GO NOW." Nick jumped into the fire and disappeared.

[Constance]

Nick was invisible.

Imagine a scene from Lord of the Rings where Frodo Baggins places the ring on his finger and he vanishes.

This was where Nick found himself.

It was an extremely strange void he found himself in. He was straddling two worlds.

He watched on through a hazy mist as he saw Shadowself and LionHawk being kitted out with everything they needed by Jim and Mark.

He saw Maria and Buster sharing an affectionate moment.

He watched as Arie and Chephirah entered the mountainside, padding with their large soft paws and seeing through their luminous eyes as they made their way in the dark.

He saw Aberdeen and Connie engaged in their first kiss underneath that large old gnarled oak tree. How sweet a moment it was to see this!

He saw the animals moving through the forest as One.

He gazed upon the figures of many indigenous tribes gathered together, explosions of collaboration and ideas, like radiation mushroom clouds, settling onto Mother Earth.

He watched as Amanda Farcorf carefully applied lipstick to that cruel mouth. He saw that perfect smile and shuddered.

He smiled as he viewed Deb and her kids, spraying each other in a water fight, everyone wet and laughing. Hair like haloes as their wet hair glistened in the bright bright sunlight.

He observed attentively as he heard Michael, Theresa, Susanna, and Daniel continue to make their plans as they drove along.

He heard a voice calling to him. It seemed like it was coming from far away but it was calling him back.

He heard a sucking noise and a loud pop and a swoosh!

He was back.

He had much to share.

Now; these other two with the red button are going to give you a nice surprise. He stood up and walked to the upper floor and stood for a second and then pressed the button. The portal opened to the Garden and he stepped through. The portal closed and Lionhawk stood up with a surprised look and walked up to the spot Jim was standing just a moment ago. He turned and said “Where did he go”? When he turned back around the portal opened again and Lionhawk stood there in amazement. He could see Jim standing there but he was in some sort of garden area. Jim had a bowl of fresh fruit and stepped into the living room and the portal closed. Lionhawk backed up and almost stumbled. He moved to a lounge and sat down. Shadowself had stood up and looked at everyone and asked the same question, “Where did you go and where did you get that bowl of fruit”? Jim walked over to Lionhawk and said “Come my friend you are going to learn some very interesting useful changes”. Lionhawk stood and they both walked down the steps and over to Shadowself. Jim handed her the bowl of fruit and said these are from Christine. She wishes you all good fortune and you will get to meet her soon. Shadowself took the bowl and moved to the counter top and set it down. She picked up a rather scrumptious looking pear and took a bite, it was delicious. She then asked who else would like some fruit. Buster had been lying on his floor bed and jumped up and starred at her. She picked a juicy looking grape off a clump and tossed it to him. He caught it and began to chew on it. Once everyone had grabbed a piece of something they all sat back down. Jim handed one of the machines to Shadowself and the otherto Lionhawk. They both took them and began inspecting them. Jim saw their quizzical faces and began explaining what these machines were capable of. He told both of them that the more they used them the more their minds would be open and they could make portals and other things happen without the machines. You must be careful how you use these gizmos they can work in the negative also and that is something you really don’t want to experience at this point.

Maria spoke and said, “We have brought a number of toys for both of you”. Lionhawk looked at her with enthusiasm on his face. Maria reached into a bag she had been carrying and pulled out two jet belts. Shadowself and Lionhawk looked at the belts with questionable looks and Maria handed one to each. They took them and asked, “What are we going to do with these”? Maria reached down to her belt and activated the dispance cloak. Bam! She disappeared before their eyes. Both Shadowself and Lionhawk stood up in surprise and Buster started to bark. Maria turned off the cloak and reappeared. Buster quit barking and ran over to Maria and sat in front of her and whined at bit. She reached down and patted him on the head and petted his back to calm him. Shadowself spoke then, “you all seem to have some real nice toys here but how do we use them? Maria said “okay I will show you one of the uses for this belt which you just witnessed. The other use, we will have to go outside’. Put the belts on and Press this button”. She showed them which one. They both buckled the belts on and pressed the button. Both disappeared. Buster jumped up again and began to whine; he ran over to where Shadowself was and bumped into her invisible leg. He fell back in surprise and sniffed the spot and sat back. Maria activated hers once more and all three were standing there and could see each other even though they looked like transparent people. They could see Mark and Jim also but could not here them talking. Maria spoke in their minds and told them what was happening. They both turned to her and were speechless. She told them to deactivate the cloak. They all reappeared. Everyone sat back down. Lionhawk spoke this time, so! These belts can cloak us but communication has to be by telepathy. Is that another toy in your bag? Maria shook her head and said no that is something that is a gift from the Divine Creator and we can help you receive it along with one other gift. That will come a little later.

Jim asked both of them to step up to the main floor with him. They stood and moved to the main floor and stood there waiting. Jim asked Lionhawk to hold the little machine out and think of a specific spot he was very familiar with while pressing the red button. Lionhawk proceeded to do this and a portal opened up to a creek on the west side of their property. He stood there looking at his favorite fishing hole when Jim told him to step through. He did and so did Jim with him. It was taking a step from the living room to the creek. When they stepped onto the bank the portal closed.
Jim turned and told Lionhawk to hold out the machine once again and think of the living room while pushing the red button. The portal opened once again and he looked into his living room. Shadowself was standing in the same place when he and Jim stepped to the creek bank and everyone else was still sitting by the fire. Jim and he both stepped through and the portal closed again. Shadowself had grasped the idea and held out her machine and pressed the button. A portal opened up to a spot she knew so well. Jim saw where she was headed and they both stepped out on the desert floor. Jim said “this is how you do it and you will use it that way”. They both stepped back through the portal that she had opened into the living room and they all walked down to the fire and sat down. Shadowself and Lionhawk were both amazed and smiling that they could use this tech. Maria told them how they had used it and finally doors had been opened in their mind thoughts to allow them to do this without the machines. Jim said “here is the one thing; you have to have been somewhere and have that memory in your mind to activate the portal. So once you go somewhere physically you can come back to a place you know by the portal but you understand you have to go there physically first. We just went to your favorite fishing hole because you have been there physically so it is ingrained in your memory. “Shadowself went to a place that is in her memory and came back to this place”. Lionhawk and Shadowself both understood.

Mark spoke this time and said “the jet belts as we so fondly call them can let you fly and be cloaked at the same time so tomorrow we will all get used to that. We have one more piece of tech that is really designed to move objects or organic life through time and space, one or both. Lionhawk became very interested in this and Shadowself asked, how can we do that? Humans have been trying to do this for ever it seems or perhaps it was possible thousands of years ago but was lost to us. Mark shook his head, yes perhaps so. Bill has brought it back through dreams that were given to him by his daughter and Evelyne. Lionhawk asked who Bill might be and Mark said “you will get to meet him soon”, he is on another mission with other spiritual brothers and sisters. He and Carolyne are mostly responsible for creating our haven and stopping the military from creating very deadly things to destroy the human race. But as you can imagine the military has not been totally stopped and that is what we are beginning to do with these missions.

The fire was warm and cozy as they sat around and ate dinner. The conversation had become very relaxing while everybody caught up to past and recent occurrences in their lives. Maria had brought out the copied material that Susanna had collected and taken from her time spent in Denver and at the base in Georgia. She also produced copies of material that Daniel had taken. Lionhawk had perused the material and had gotten on a secure radio to notify some very important folks he knew in upper state Pennsylvania. Jim went with Shadowself to look at her computers and they both restructured them. Once that had been accomplished she began to send the damning information to other folks she knew. They were going to deliver hard copy of this to other people to take it world wide.

[Lost N Found]

The damning information clearly showed that the toad in Denver that called himself the emperor was nothing more than a used car salesman that had climbed through the ranks by bribery and murder. He had a brother in the congress that got him started on his corrupt climb to the top. Once he made it to a certain point he had his brother murdered and no one ever found out that the victim was his brother. He blamed the murder on the poor unfortunate veterans and kept on murdering anyone that stood in his way. Once he ran for the President or more consciously known as the CEO of the corporation and the unhappy people of the nation rallied around him simply because he offered them everything that they did not have, Little did the people know that he had already secured his election through some very rich and powerful people that were in the congress, he won and became the so called elected leader. This all occurred in 2016 and this little murderer began to take everything that the people thought they had away from them through a process of by-passing the congress. He managed to succeed with the help of those rich and powerful congressmen. The straw that broke their backs was a leaked document that blamed them all for allowing the destruction of the Nation. When this all came out and was spread by the propaganda network that were owned by the very ones that had been blamed. The congress began a concerted effort to get rid of the toad.

Two years into his presidency Vinnie Crumholtz had managed to create a powerful police force and had garnered the military top wigs to join him by pure bribery with the entire nation’s assets. The congress was totally embattled and assassination attempts were an ongoing daily occurrence. In early 2019 Vinnie had planned the destruction of congress and whatever happened to the people of DC was just going to be collateral damage. The patriots of the Nation had been fighting against this entire subversion of their government and there were ongoing daily skirmishes from one coast to another. Vinnie had also planned to blame them for what was coming. He left DC early in March to visit Denver. He had asked his staff and two congressmen to join him on the vacation. The video that Susanna had found along with documentation in top secret files clearly showed Vinnie planting the suitcase nuke in the Capital building. It also showed his accomplishes and it actually showed him shooting a guard that was on duty at the time. In the video Vinnie could clearly be seen shooting and dragging the guard to a nearby closet. The two people that were with him and helped disappeared after the fact so no one ever knew what might have happened to them. The videos were full of murders that Vinnie had pulled off on his way to the top including his brother. This man was pure evil. By the time the nuke went off Vinnie had already set up his new Capital and after the destruction almost immediately he declared a state of emergency and declared war on the patriots. He suspended the elections and virtually abolished everything that America stood on. That is when he declared himself the new emperor. Any one that defied him was dealt with swiftly and brutally. The police state had completed its course to full blown outright control and tyranny and Vinnie sat at its head. Murder and mayhem was ramped up and full control of the world had begun in earnest by this little worm.

Lionhawk read through as much of the documentation as he could stomach and watched the videos until he wanted to vomit. He had watched this little freak strut himself around like a god while the world crumbled into chaos. He looked up at everyone with tears streaming from his eyes and asked about their mission to West Virginia. Shadowself had gotten up and sat beside him holding him by this time. She looked at them and asked to go on the mission with them. Mark looked at Maria and she spoke to Shadowself and said, “you and I are going to do something first as part of this mission it you so choose. We must deliver the copies of this to some folks at the border of Virginia and you know some others at the borders of West Virginia that must have this also. After we do this then we will come back here and all of us will go to this dark place. Lionhawk must bring his sword because it is a spiritual weapon and he will need it for the battle. There are two spiritual lions waiting for us. Together with Lionhawk there will be three spiritual lions. When we get into this place the lions are going to battle while the rest of us find the labs and research to remove and destroy. We will all have to battle because this is a very dark place and we do not know what is down there at this point. When we are done we will open the portal back to our plane and leave. The underground bunker is going to be destroyed by an interior nuclear bomb that will only register as a minor earthquake. Jim spoke up and said “tomorrow we outfit the cars so Shadowself and Maria can do what needs to be done. We will also use the jet belts so everyone is familiar with those. We all have the Portal tech and know how to use that. The time machine gizmos work like this and with that he pulled one from a case on his belt. It was the newest version and it resembled a small Pelican3500 flash light. It was about 6” long and around 1” in diameter. At the front where the light lens was, a dial was situated with a small led readout just behind it. At the end it had a button that was green. At the tail end where the button resided was another dial and it was used as a space locater. Jim stood up and walked over to the fruit bowl and picked up a piece of fruit. He sat it on the counter top and dialed the front piece for time. He set it for the year 1213 and showed every one the date on the led readout. He then pointed at the piece of fruit and pushed the button. A slight blue beam shot forth and touched the fruit and it disappeared. He told every one how the first version had a strong beam so it had been modified. Bill made it so no beam emanated. That got to be a bit confusing so Bill brought back the beam and made it weaker. He also connected something to the cloak function so when we are cloaked and use the device it cannot be seen but by only us inside the cloak.

In the year 1213 in the month of December Jonas Haunder was sitting at a table in his meager hutch wondering where and how he was going to get some food when a delicious looking apple appeared on the table. He stood up and backed away but soon came forward and picked it up and bit into it. He thanked God for it and sat back down to eat.

[Lost N Found]

Every one saw the apple disappear and Jim said “now this next function can just move matter through space to a place that you think of or point to. It is almost identical to the portal except you can point it and send matter through a great distance by turning this dial. It has all these little settings so this is how it works. He dialed the back end and set another piece of fruit on the counter top. This time he used grapes. He broke off a small clump of about 5 and pointed the gizmo at it pressing the button again. Buster jumped up of a sudden and ran around the fire pit and came back to his floor bed and starred at the fruit. Everyone began to laugh while Buster sniffed and began to eat the grapes.

After all the demonstrations of the tech and a wonderful meal, everybody was sitting around drinking coffee, enjoying the warmth of the fire and good conversation. Shadowself asked about the two gifts that the Divine Creator was going to give them. Maria looked at her and Lionhawk both and seeing that her cup was empty she took the moment to demonstrate one of the gifts that both of these people were going to receive. First she sat her coffee cup down on an end table and then lifted her hand and pointed at the cup. It rose up and she moved it to the counter top and sat it down. Next she raised the carafe and poured another cup of coffee and then set it back on the hot plate. As they all watched in abject fascination the cup rose and floated back to the end table and rested perfectly. Maria picked it up and took a sip. She was just watching Shadowself and Lionhawk as they both looked at each other and back to her and the questions started to come forth. Mary raised her hand and said that is one gift, the ability to levitate. Once the door that is locked in your mind is opened you will be able to do that. The other is the one you have sort of experienced when we activated the dispance cloak. Telepathy is behind another locked door in your mind. Shadowself then asked “how do we unlock the doors”? Mary told them that three more guests should be arriving soon. Lionhawk stood and retrieved another log and set it on the fire. “Should we make another pot of coffee”? Maria said yes and if you have some hot chocolate you could make some of that also. Shadowself got up and walked to the countertop where the carafe was and flipped a switch and a sink was uncovered with a faucet. She opened a door and pulled a bag of fresh ground coffee out and set up the carafe to brew. In the cabinet was the making for hot chocolate also. She moved over to another door and when she opened it, everyone noticed it was a small Refrigerator. She turned and said we have everything here for what is needed. She closed the door and came back and sat down.

The first of the agroforestry crops were yielding massive amounts of fruit and nuts from the trees that had been so lovingly planted by Deb Petrovski's students.

The trees flourished under these ideal conditions. They somehow knew that by having their branches pruned that they would yield more fruit for the people and they grew happily and sturdily amidst the vegetables.

The people were good to the earth and the earth responded in kind. It was a wonderous harmony for all. Mother Nature was pleased.

The soil teemed with microscopic life. It seemed that all life benefited from what the trees provided in the way of mulch. Little birds that had not been seen for years in the area returned to forage the ground for food and to nest in trees and eat their fill of fruit.

The kids had learned about Hoogelculture from a german guy they dreamed with and now these earth and wooden mounds provided carbon-rich nutrients that the trees sucked up heartily into their roots. The seedlings planted in the rich earth of these mounds sprung up like crazy weeds.

The sun's benevolent rays of unconditional love beamed down on plants and students alike, both flourished and grew under these nurturing conditions.
The dreaming continued.

As they continued to talk a portal opened and Christine stepped on to the upper floor living area. Jim stood and walked up and hugged her and escorted her down to the fire pit. Lionhawk and Shadowself both stood as Jim introduced her to them and visa versa. Christine walked around and hugged both of them and said “I am so glad to meet both of you”. They all sat down and talked some more about all the things that had been introduced. Christine told them both and everyone that the girls should be showing up anytime now. Lionhawk asked how she was able to open a portal to their living room if she had never been here before. Christine told him, that Jim had sent images to her by telepathy and he had come to the haven earlier and retrieved the bowl of fruit. So by the association and telepathy I had the spot in my mind. Lionhawk looked around and said “this is totally fantastic; I must say that I really want to meet your daughter and her sister”. Just as he said that, he heard giggling and the two girls just materialized on the main floor. Buster jumped up and ran up to them. It appeared that he knew them and both girls bent to their knees and began to pet him. He almost drooled but turned and came down the steps as both girls walked down. Evelyne introduced herself and Eryne did the same. We have been here before but did not want to intrude until we were invited. Lionhawk and Shadowself both stood and walked to them and great hugs happened. They all sat down and the two girls opened the fridge door and made the hot chocolate and the cups floated to them. Buster was sitting next to them and whimpering for them to pet him. The both looked at him and all of a sudden he lay down and looked very happy.

Evelyne spoke and said, “We are here to help unlock doors. Both of you have been in the spiritual universe and have been in the place that allows you to come back here for a new life to learn more. Both Lionhawk and Shadowself shook there heads in acknowledgement. Evelyne continued and began to tell them that everyone in the room is going to help you both to open doors so you can receive the gifts that were given by the divine creator but were locked up an eternity ago by wicked evil souls. The girls stood and asked everyone to gather close enough to hold each others hands. They all stood and moved to a spot on the main floor that allowed them to do this. Once they were in the circle the light began to glow through each hand. Lionhawk felt the love moving through him and Shadowself. He had always felt the pure love of Shadowself but the other people’s love became intermingled with theirs. The light continued to grow brighter as the love connected. Evelyne and Eryne were standing in the center of the group as the light/love ring grew stronger. Everyone became light and it appeared that 6 columns of light were blazing when all the light shot into the center and the two girls turned to pure light. A bright white tube of light shot up and bent towards the center of the dome and shot into the night sky and continued into the universe.

[Lost N Found]

As the tube of light entered the universe, Love and Light became Spirit through total connection with the Divine Creator. All were one and within the one, doors were unlocked and thoughts were released. When the thoughts were released the spirit flowed back and the light tube came back to the two girls and shot back through the ring and became individual with 6 people standing in a circle holding hands. Lionhawk had been with the one before in other lives and was awakened once more into his warrior spirit. Shadowself had also been in the one in past lives and now was reawakened. She spoke to Lionhawk in his mind/thought and he felt the total love emanating from her. He spoke back and they fell into each others arms. The two girls smiled and giggled turned side ways and disappeared, Mark and Maria, Jim and Christine glowed with the love and Lionhawk and Shadowself were glowing brightly as they all began to move towards the fire pit. Buster had witnessed the light tube and watched as they all came back. He knew within his mind that they all loved him and that they were all connected to the life force. He danced a happy jig and spoke into their minds. I am happy that your thoughts have been set free and spirits are reconnected to all life force. With that Buster lay down on his floor bed and promptly dozed off.
After talking in their minds and trying out the levitation techniques everyone had some more coffee. They all heard the giggling and smiled and laughed. Shadowself took the four guests through the double doors on the west and showed them the additional sleeping rooms on the southwest wing of the home. Shadowself and Lionhawk retired to their master wing and continued to laugh and talk with each other until they fell into a restful sleep.

Hava and Luun were deeply concerned for Lionhawk. He had been a great warrior for the light in past lives and every time he reincarnated back his mind thoughts had been locked away by the evil wicked darkness. Eventually he would start to remember and doors would open but as a warrior he would go to battle once again and his physical matter would be destroyed. His spirit would go to the place of waiting and choice and he would choose to come back to carry on the battles. Both girls were going to give an extra gift this time to help him fight the darkness coming up. Arie and Chephirah would also be with him and their spirits were very strong. The girls had opened other doors and freed other thoughts that Lionhawk could use in this very dangerous battle. The sword he would take to battle would shine when the evil wicked things were near. This particular thing had been created by a movie director back in the ending of the 20th century. Little did he know that it was a real thing in the spirit warrior realms Tools to do battle were around forever in the physical sense and most of those kind had been forgotten and were treated as legends in these latter times.

Lionhawk was dreaming of two little girls that told him to wake up. In this vivid dream they took him and brought him to an opening in the side of a mountain. As they set him down there were two beautiful mountain lions sitting next to some brush. One spoke to him and said “We have been waiting for you. We are your brother and sister. My name is Arie and my mate is Chephirah. When we enter this mountain, we will stand together to fight the darkness. Under here is a great den of evil and we must send it all back to its dark pits and close them so they will never come forth here again. With that he found himself in a room with a grinding wheel and some other tools. The two girls were standing in front of him as he sharpened the sword. He knew this sword; it was his and had always been his. He was working up a great sweat while sharpening it. The sword had a name etched into the blade on one side. As he ground the blade he saw the name and it was written in ancient Scottish. He could read it, Vengeance, Blood blade of the Lion. He remembered putting it there but could not remember when. He stopped grinding and began to wet stone the edges of the blade. The sword was an ancient claymore and he had loved it the first time he acquired it He turned it over and one of the girls put a hand on his and said you must add another name to this weapon. He looked at her with a quizzical look but she was very serious. She showed him the name in ancient Scottish. He read it and it said “Rigormortis, Blessed blade of the Lion”. She handed the etching tool to him and he began to put that name on it. When he had finished it the blade shined and it had a bluish tent to it. The girl told him that it would shine brighter when the evil darkness was near and when he struck a blow it would send the creature of darkness back into its hole and it could not come back. He finished wet stoning and honing the blade and walked over and put it into a sheath. The hilt glistened and the girl touched him on the arm again and said here is another gift you must use in the coming battle. She told him to hold his hand outstretched. He did and a blue flame came out of his fingers it hit a stone standing against the wall and caused a blackened spot to appear. When he turned to question her she was gone.

He woke in a sweat and sat up in bed. Shadowself stirred and sat up in bed and asked if he was alright. He swung his legs over the side of the bed and said “just had a very strange dream”. He sat for a few minutes and got up and went to the bathroom to shower. After showering he dressed and went out to the work shop and straight to his sword. The hilt was glistening and when he pulled it out of the sheath he saw the new name etched into it and the bluish tent. He turned and looked at the stone and sure enough there was a blackened spot on it. He looked at his hand and held it up like in the dream and pointed at the stone once again and thought about the blue flame and it shot from his hand and hit the stone, this time the stone broke in two. He went back to the house and into the bedroom. Shadowself had fallen back to sleep so he undressed and crawled back in. He looked at the clock and made note that it had not been more than an hour since they all went to bed the first time. He fell back to sleep and dreamed of two beautiful lions and as he watched them walk their coats rippled like waves on the ocean, there was a shinning light emanating from them both. He woke up and Shsdowself had already gotten up. He climbed out of bed and took another shower before getting dressed.

After leaving the café Vilhelm and Helga were sick and became even more violently ill while driving. Vilhelm had to pull over every few hundred yards or so. They both climbed from the car and vomited. After about an hour or so they made it to the bridge that was being repaired and stopped on the other side. Climbing out of the car Vilhelm noticed that their skin had a bluish tent to it like when they had left the old Junk Yard. They both crawled down to the creek and jumped in. After spending some time under the water they surfaced and exited the creek. Once they got back to the road surface both walked back to the car. The bluish tent had faded considerably and they begin to feel less sick. They stood around the car for awhile to make sure they would not get sick again. Helga finally said “I think we could travel further” so they crawled back into the car and sped off down the road. The food that had been given to them by the woman at the café sat in the back untouched and sealed in its container. The two creatures in the front had ceased to think about food earlier. They both were feeling better when they reached the interstate and turned west.

[Lost N Found]

Just a few miles down the road there was a rest stop with service for cars and a motel. It was dark and later in the evening when they pulled in. Helga crawled out and secured a room for them. It was around in the back and on the bottom floor. Once in the room they both became hungry again but did not want to go to the motel restaurant so Helga retrieved the sealed food from the café that was in the car and brought it into the room. There was a warming oven on the table and a small refrigerator. Both of them had decided to clean themselves up before eating. Vilhelm told Helga to go first. After she had showered he went and showered. They were sitting around when Helga unsealed the container and stuck it into the oven for a few minutes. After it dinged she pulled it out and they both looked at the food and wondered what it might be but they were both famished so Helga split the meal up and they both dug in. After eating they sat around for awhile and then fell asleep. One hour later Helga awakened and heard Vilhelm throwing up again tn the bathroom. She was feeling like doing the same thing and had to go to the small lavatory sink that was next to the Fridge. She began vomiting again and noticed her skin had that bluish tent once again. Both of them continued to vomit and retch for around an hour and then began to settle down. Vilhelm had filled the tub with water and lay under it for about 15 minutes. Helga was pounding on the door by this time and Vilhelm climbed out and opened the door. Helga could not wait and rushed to the water and pulled herself completely under. The leftover food had a definite blue haze around it but they did not see it because they had dumped what was left into the waste basket prior to retiring. Once they both stopped being sick and the bluish tent had disappeared again the finally went to sleep.

Around mid morning they both got up and showered and packed what ever they had brought into the room and headed out the door. Once in their car Vilhelm had pulled around to the small store and Helga went in and purchased some snacks and things while Vilhelm made sure the car was fully charged. They pulled out and proceeded to the west once again. An hour or so later they came to the turnoff where the choppers had disappeared and the personnel had gone missing. Vilhelm pulled the car off the interstate and got onto the old road that headed north. He drove for a distance of about a mile before stopping. He climbed from the car and Helga joined him. After sniffing the ground he gazed towards the northwest and an old logging road. He told Helga he would follow a scent on that road for awhile. Helga had picked up a scent leading into a small forest of trees and started moving that way.

[Lost N Found]

Vilhelm loped over the old road until he came over a rise and saw the lake down in front of him. He continued to sniff and crawl towards the lake. He knew that this was the lake that was filed in the reports where the first chopper had been found. Once he reached an area that told him this was where all the police choppers and transport had stopped and landed at first. He looked both directions from here and decided he would scout around the lake in a full circle. He headed off to the north side first. His smelling capability had slowly returned and he was sniffing the civilian scent as well as police and military scents. He followed them all around the lake and came to the spot on the west bank where someone had walked to the lake and did something there. He walked to the edge of the water and looked out over the lake. Something told him to go in and look. He peeled his clothes off and walked into the water and dove under. After wiggling through for a while he came across another chopper sitting at the bottom. He swam into it and it was one of the missing police choppers. It showed no sign of being damaged, all the gear was still aboard and it appeared like it had just been placed here for no apparent reason. He fished around and pulled the ID tags and headed back for the edge of the land. Once back on the land he dressed himself and continued his search around the lake.

Aberdeen continued to buy up land everywhere he went until he ran out of money. The change of heart he had was not only literal, it had encompassed his entire being.

He had all these ideas come to him about how the land could be used, inspired in part by the ideas of Connie and Nick but mostly by the young people who dreamed with him. And could those young people dream!

He was so inspired by the ruddy young men and women who had turned their backs on the education system and who were building greenhouses over vast tracks of barren, unused, unfertile land in other parts of the country. Those greenhouses and their aquaponic systems could feed a million people per greenhouse!

He was inspired by the work of those who had sought to green the deserts and were doing just that, John L and Geoff L. He shook his head. The collaboration, the willingness, and the foresight to see something so great where the odds dictated that it could never be possible, these were the greatest sources of inspirations for him.

He saw Vetiver grass, the quiet unsung hero, stealthily transforming a land once so scorched and razed by war and famine that it seemed dead and lifeless, into a lush oasis.
The amazing energies and properties of this grass? Great springs of pure water returned to these lands. It took the imagination of just one farmer who dared to dream with a big heart and big ideas. This was an incredible life-giving plant! It made fresh and clean water available for the villagers and the animals to drink where there had been none.

The men who were nicknamed Mr. Toilet. Each despairing over the world's sanitization crisis, each with the determination, each with the tenacity and the heart of lions, were rapidly installing clean, compostable toilets everywhere they went.

The man who had invented the machine that could clean up the world's plastic problem. The Oceans and the land would be cleaned alike with just a flick of the switch. The added bonus? The plastic turned into a renewable clean energy resource that could be used for fuel for cooking or driving.

The islanders who were left with nothing but coconuts when invaders had decimated every single resource available to them. What did they do? They created an entire economy out of coconuts! He saw entire communities thriving on the humble coconut. It was a coconut revolution!

He realised that his dreams had to be big enough to encompass the whole of humanity. He couldn't bear the sufferings that were forced upon his brothers and sisters. He had to dream bigger.

Helga had sniffed the scent of civilian and policeman. She was exhilarated to have gotten her scent back All that business with the bluish and green stuff in that junk yard and then being so sick had made her wonder who she really was. As she followed the scent deeper into the forest it turned and headed north. She came across the scent of deer but that would be expected in the wild however there was something different about these scents. The further she went to the north and in to the forest the scent became stronger. She came up short and looked in front of her and saw the large clump of brush. She sniffed around it until she came to a small opening that had strong scent. She entered and crawled into a small meadow. The scent in here was powerful. She crawled to the center and the scent ended. She sniffed around but everything lead to the center and just disappeared. The deer scent and the police scent just stopped here. She looked up and thought that something may have picked up the policeman right at this spot but she could not make sense of the deer scent just stopping here. The Civilian scent moved off towards the north from here so she thought to follow it and stopped. Vilhelm would need to be with her as they tracked this particular scent. She turned and loped out of the brush and back through the forest to the car. As she came out of the trees she saw Vilhelm loping back to the car. They met and Helga told Vilhelm what she had found and they would have to pick the scent up and follow it north. Vilhelm told her what he had found and they would have to report it to the station commander. They both crawled into the car and continued to the north. The road was dirt and when they reached a point that Helga said to stop they both got out and went into the forest to follow the scent that Helga had mentioned.

GEROU MONTANA
Samuel brought the chopper into a low approach to a secluded field of grass located just before a forest of fir trees. They all saw the mountain range to the west and north of them. He sat the bird down gently. He had deactivated the jet device a few miles back and spun the rotor to get to this spot. He turned the rotor off and they all sat looking out at the beauty around them. Montana was already in its end of the fall season and a light dusting of snow had already collected on the ground. As they sat there two large brown bears came out of the trees and meandered towards them. Samuel and Mary both watched as these two bears kept getting closer. Samantha and Jonathan watched from the back and Samantha said “they’re going to walk right into us if they don’t change course”. Samuel was amazed by their beauty and he was going to start the rotor and lift off when Mary reached over and grabbed his arm. He turned and looked at her and saw that she was captivated also by these two bears. When he turned back both bears had stopped right in front of the chopper and were gazing at them through the front glass. One stood up on its hind legs and appeared to raise its front leg and wave to them. Every one in the chopper starred and then in their minds they heard this wondrous creature speak to them. “I am Kuruk and pointing to the one standing next to him, this is Sikyahonaw. We were told you would come here in this meadow of plenty. The ones that told us said we must meet you and tell you about the place you are to go into to. We have been into this place and it has many humans in bright tunnels. We could not venture further than the beginning of the bright tunnels. We watch the entrance to the cave and see the humans coming and going. Kuruk turned and pointed to the mountain towards the northwest of their position. You must wait here for word from other humans before going to the cave with light. We will go and stand in the place you will take this monster. With that the two bears dropped down on all fours and turned and began to trot towards the forest and the mountain.

Samuel turned to everyone and said “well we meet friends on our way”. Every one smiled and continued to watch the two bears move across the meadow. It was not long before they had entered the forest and were gone. Samuel stood and moved to the back and opened a cabinet and removed some food, He asked it any one else wanted to eat something now since this was their last chance before they engaged the bunker. Every one said “Yes”. They sat around munching and gazing at the beautiful scenery. Mary stood and walked to the storage locker and removed four time machine gizmos and handed them out. They all had clips on their fatigues designed to hold the devices. She gave each a spray canister of the special potion the girls had come up with along with Harvey Jacobs. Christine had appropriately named it Bluegreen and had added another name to it, “Lifesaver”. So somehow that got written on the canisters. Mary walked over to the hatch and unlocked it and looked at Samuel. He said it was all clear so she opened it. She then asked everyone to climb out so they could test their jet belts once more. They all jumped to the ground and were standing together. The first thing was to activate the dispance cloak. They all did and could see each other and Mary used telepathy to ask how they felt. In their minds they all said fine. Mary turned on her jet belt and lifted off. She told everyone to do that so they did and began to loop around. They all had practiced and mastered this technique so all landed and turned everything off. They all became visible once more and climbed back into the chopper. The hatch was closed and the meadow returned to normal.

Nawhaur the beaver was standing atop his dam when he saw the two bears coming across the meadow. He watched them intently as they got closer and prepared himself to dive into the little pond he had created at the southern end of the meadow. The little creek that ran through had been the perfect place for him to create his home. He stood and was ready to jump when he saw the bears stop. One stood on its hind legs and began to point with its front arm and paw. He watched this go on for awhile and then the bear dropped down on all fours and both of them turned and trotted back the way they had come. The early morning was sunny and he was enjoying his handiwork and munching on some limbs before he began to work on his dam some more, so when the bears left he stayed on the dam enjoying the sun once more. He kept a weary eye out towards the area the bears had been in and a little while later he saw something that made him want to jump in the water and find another place to build. He heard the noise first and saw a hole open in the meadow above the ground. Four humans jumped to the ground. The next thing he saw was them all disappearing again. He was so distraught by now that he almost fell off his dam. All of a sudden the four humans reappeared and climbed into the hole and it disappeared. Nawhaur dove into the pond and crawled into his home and just sat there shaking and wondering about what he saw.

Gerou was nothing more than a mountain lodge that had been built by some Architects from Colorado back in the 19th century. It was situated at the top of a pass that was also called by the name. It was a big log built structure using the virgin fir trees that grew on this mountain. It had a good sized restaurant inside a main two story building that had 40 rooms for lodging. Around the perimeter were small 1 story bungalows and the trails for hiking were open during the summer months There were around 20 or so homes scattered within a 5 mile radius for the people that operated the lodge year around. The bunker had been constructed in the late 20th century down in an old abandoned gold mine. It had been upgraded on a regular basis. It was located about 20 miles down the side of the mountain to the south. All the locals new about it but the military had always supported their businesses so everything was normal for them when the military boys came through.

Colonel Bullnutt finished his breakfast and asked for another cup of coffee. Lieutenant Leavit and Sergeant Swamprat had both finished their breakfast and the sergeant had gone out to warm up the systems on the skimmer. The waitress had come over and poured more coffee for both of them and moved on to others. The Colonel spoke in a hushed voice to the lieutenant and said “today we are going to make some history. That Major and the lieutenant that blew our base in Wyoming and stole all the experiments and research plus the other people we had working there may have set us back a few years but we finally have the pieces from Flaxville to assemble the new laser weapons. Once we get them assembled at the bunker we will test them on something live and if all that works we are instructed to secure Missoula. I have been told that a contingent of aircalv will be at our call once we test everything out. Once we do that we will be going to Helena and taking this state completely over this should have happened months ago but those idiots up in Flaxville could not get it together. I think they have some traitors among them. I intend to clean out the rats nest when we get done here. The Colonel asked for the credit reader and the waitress brought it over. He stuck his hand into the slot and it tabbed the bill. He and the Lieutenant stood and walked out the front door. “Once we get this state into our control that sort of thing is going to stop”.

Setting in the chopper everyone had decided to get some rest. They had traveled most of the night and it was around 7am when they had set down. They were waiting for word from Bill to tell them that their mission was about ready to commence. Jonathan was studying some old blueprints of a weapon that he had been working on prior to them leaving and going with Bill and Carolyne. The weapon had been designed as a particle laser beam rifle for infantry. If it had been completed at the time the world would be a far worse off place today. He had known at the time how deadly and very destructive it was going to be and the world did not know that all nations would be subjugated by the use of this insidious weapon. That was the number one reason he had taken everything and destroyed what was left when Bill or Major John Ballard and Lieutenant Jamie Carol had asked everyone to leave. The weapon was being developed with two functions at the time. The first was touted as being the merciful function. It would only lobotomize the victim leaving him or her a zombie completely helpless. The second function would melt human flesh and organs or so to speak it would melt organic material into a lump of wet mush. As he thought about that it made him sick. He swallowed his bile just as Bill spoke into their minds. He told them that they had arrived in North Dakota and were preparing to enter the bunker. Samuel had mind talked back and told him that they were prepared and just waiting to move on the bunker on Gerou. All seemed a go and Samuel buckled in and told everyone that this was it. He spun the rotor and lifted the chopper up and moved towards the bunker on this side of the mountain.

NORTH DAKOTA AND THE COTTONWOODS
Kevin had set the chopper down in an area between two rolling hills that were covered with waving prairie grass. As they had flown in Kristyl had noticed a small herd of Buffalo grazing just to north. Kevin turned the rotor off and they set for awhile to watch the small prairie dogs flittering around. Bill and Carolyne had both undressed and redressed into the military uniforms. Kevin had turned to ask Bill about contacting Samuel and Mary and starred in surprise at the two officers standing in the cabin. The two star general looked liked if he gave an order one would jump immediately. The Colonel was a striking woman but demanded instant respect. Kristyl turned and her mouth dropped open. She asked where the chains were for her and Kevin. Carolyne smiled and reached into a bag hanging on the cabin wall. She pulled out the chains and let them unravel to the deck. She looked at Kristyl with such a straight and stern face, Kristyl had to crack up laughing and with that every one began laughing. After they all settled down Carolyne took something out pf the locker, it was a small bottle of pills. She passed it around and told everyone to take one. Bill asked what this might be. Carolyne said it was something that she had learned how to make when she read the book in the dream. We are going into something where some very dangerous germs exist and I do not want any of us getting contaminated. She reached into the storage locker again and pulled out the time machine gizmos and the small spray canisters that said “Bluegreen lifesavers” and handed them all too every one. Kevin took the pill and swallowed it and turned around to look out the front bubble. Standing just a few yards away was about 5 prairie dogs. They were standing on their hind legs and looking straight at the chopper.

Connie had jokingly called the land she and Aberdeen worked upon "The garden of Eden", for it really was such a beautiful place to be a part of.

Someone had planted vetiver grass on the grassy slopes of the forest.
The long roots of the vetiver grass were so entirely meshed together and so deep rooted within the rich soils that they had created a natural body of water from which all came to partake of.
It wasn't unusual to see Connie, Aberdeen and a whole bunch of kids at twilight, bathing in the crystal clear waters that flowed into the pond. The animals would come to drink from the cool, cool waters once the human beings had departed.

It was such a happy scene to behold until a snake slithered into The garden of Eden in the form of Amanda Farcorf.

[Constance]

Amanda sensed in her own intuitive dark artful way that the path to the new and improved Aberdeen was through his heart.

Literally.

She had a plan.

[Constance]

It was a tough gig but she had managed to pull it off.

It had taken her months of going from party to party where all the big wigs played... but she had done it.

One by one she had slept with all the big pharma bosses, politicians and anyone in a position to influence the medical industry, male and female alike.

She had used her looks and her vile charm to worm her way into their hearts and their homes.

The threat of being discovered by their wives or husbands was enough to keep the loathsome toads quiet, at least until she had Aberdeen right where she wanted him.

She smiled a chilling smile, pouted her lips to check that her full tight lips were perfectly lipsticked and pulled the rear vision mirror towards her to primp her hair just so as her last victim pulled over to help her change the flat tyre on her immaculate Bentley.

"Can I help you ma'am?" Said police chief Rolin Wakely.

"Well officer, I believe you can." Amanda said coquettishly, coiled as if ready to strike.

The flat tyre hissed in resignation. It was the third time this week she had deliberately flattened her tyre in the hopes of seeing chief Wakely.

She laughed throatily and drew back her head to look at him. "I believe you can."

Nantan the Prairie dog had been standing at his burrow entrance when he saw a great bird fly in and touch the ground. He had given the warning for his Coterie and they had all run and dove into their own burrows. He continued to watch and the giant bird did not move from the spot it had landed. He could see humans inside it and thought maybe the bird had eaten them and was satisfied. The curious thing was that the humans were still moving around inside the bird. He started to wonder if the humans would kill the bird from within and escape. As he stood up once again his Coterie began to poke their heads out and climb to the top of the mounds. They chattered to one another and asked Nantan what this creature might be that did not attack them. Nantan told them that he did not know. He was contemplating telling the town to lay low until this creature either died or flew away when he heard a voice in his mind telling him to approach this beast and wait for one of the humans inside to ask a question. Nantan was the spokesman for his Coterie so he called 4 of his clan to come with him. He and 4 others scampered over to the bird creature and stood in front of it waiting for the voice.

YANSA and IINIWA the buffalo had been grazing on two hills over from where the giant bird came down and disappeared into the ravine. They had been told that this creature would roost in that particular area. The voice had also talked to them when they were up around the cottonwoods where they had seen the humans come and go to a strange place. The voice had told them that once they met the humans in the bird and told them where to go that they would get their grazing area and the trees back after these humans left. Other humans had come to an area that was further towards where the light rose in the sky. Those humans would stay far away from where they grazed and bedded down. These other humans would drive some beast close to their bedding ground and move to a small human building and disappear. YANSA did not know where they would go other than into that human building. He and his brothers and sisters had used this area for many moons to graze and bed down. The humans had come here and stood up wire things that he and the herd could not get through. This had cut off there grazing area where the sweet grass grew so they had to find good grass further to the open plains. The large trees with the white snow falling from them where they would bed down at night were lost to them also when the wire things went up. The humans came and built their buildings and put some small thing up that only one human could be in. Every so often two humans would come from the building and walk around the perimeter of the wire. They would have a poor creature on some tie thing around its neck and it would speak in a very angry voice to him and his herd. Some nights it would just whimper and act like it was dragging the humans along. He and IINIWA had moved toward the ravine steadily grazing and came to the top of the last hill. They both stood there and looked down at the bird. It just sat there and they could see humans inside its belly. YANSA had been told to approach this creature and speak to the humans.

As Kevin sat starring in wonder at the Prairie dogs Kristyl had gotten up and went to get something to munch on. She asked Kevin if he wanted anything and when He did not answer she turned around and froze as she saw the Prairie dogs standing out side the front of the chopper. Carolyne and Bill had been having a conversation about how they were going to approach the guard station and get into the bunker. They both felt the vibration and stopped and looked at the Prairie dogs also. As they all were looking, Kevin said in a hushed voice, “I think they are waiting for us to say something to them” Bill said “how can they see us and how do they even know we are here”? Kristyl said “the same way that Honovi could see us”. I don’t think this dispance cloak works with our animal brothers and sisters”. As they sat their YANSA and IINIWA came down the hill and walked up to the front and stopped. Everyone in the chopper heard in their minds as YANSA began to speak “I was told to come here and tell you were to come so you can get into the wired place. We have been around it since before it existed and know its ways. I was also told that when you are done in that place that we would have our grazing areas and favorite bedding places restored. The pictures in their minds showed them everything. Nantan had been waiting for a chance to speak and after YANSA had spoke his mind was loosened. He told the humans that he and his Coterie had to relocate also from that place. He and some brethren have dug down and actually had run into something that was like rock. They had undermined the entrance to the human cave and when a human had tripped into the tunnels they had put some kind of bad food into the tunnels so he and his brethren stopped going their. They had tunneled all around the human cave and ran across round metal objects. They did not know what they were but the smell was enough to stay away from them. One of our brother’s spirits passed into the great spirits realm after eating what those humans put into the tunnels. Nantan began to plant into their minds all the locations of the round metal things. Bill spoke to YANSA and told him that they would come to the spot where he would be and he also thanked Nantan for the information and told them all that they would soon get their places back from the humans that had taken it from them. The Prairie dogs all dropped to all fours and scurried back to their burrows. YANSA and IINIWA both turned and headed back up the hill.

Bill sat on the bench in the back of the cabin and reached out to Samuel with his mind. He told him and all on the chopper in Montana that they were prepared to enter the bunker in North Dakota. They would be at the site in about 30 minute’s time. Samuel had spoke back in the mind and said they were moving to their first target and it would take them around the same amount of time to get there. All was prepared and every body buckled up and Kevin lifted the chopper and once up high enough he pushed forward and they flew towards the spot that had been planted in their minds by YANSA. While in the air Kristyl said “we could run into some problems here and all of us must know how to handle this. We just found out proof positive that animals are not affected by the dispance cloak. They can see us no matter what. We know that these guards have dogs so as we go in behind you two if those dogs are at the guard station they will bark. If we make it into the elevator and out into the corridors and those dogs are down there they will bark. Carolyne spoke and said “I will use the control technique and calm the dogs as we move forward. She spoke to Kristyl in her mind only and said “I gave you the technique because either one of us may be separated so you will protect Kevin as I will protect Bill. Both men shook their heads together and said perhaps we should try and avoid the dogs as best as possible. Kevin said “Kristyl and I can hang back if a dog is at the gate shack and use our jet belts to fly over and to the Quonset building and mind talk to meet at the door way. That seemed like a good idea to Bill so that conversation shelved itself for now.

Kevin brought the chopper in over the park area to see if anyone was camping. This time of year the park had been closed for the winter months so it was empty. It had not snowed yet but the air was a nice 16 degrees F. As he was coming low to land at the spot where YANSA was grazing he noticed a military vehicle traveling through the park on its way to the bunker. He brought the chopper to a hover and waited for the skimmer to pass under them. As it went by he slowly followed it. As the skimmer went through the end of the park and onto the government refuge he swung up and over the cottonwoods and hovered over the top of the building. They were fortunate. The guard post had 1 man but no dog. The skimmer pulled up to the gate and the guard let them into the area beyond. As they continued to watch the car pulled into a well concealed area and three people crawled out. The pilot opened his hatch and crawled out and one of the back doors opened and an officer got out and had a hold of some kind of line as something unrecognizable crawled out. The creature stopped and looked up into the sky. It gazed around for a short space and then the officer pulled cruelly on the line and it moved off towards the Quonset building, all the while looking around and over its shoulder into the air. Once they all entered the building Kevin swung the chopper southwards toward the herd of buffalo. They were beyond the fence line a few hundred yards and YANSA was standing on the other side of some huge cottonwoods. He slowly lowered the chopper and set it down so if it was uncloaked it could not be seen from the guard station. He cut the rotor and every one gathered what gear they needed and Bill opened the hatch and they all hopped out. Once on the ground every body cloaked. Bill stood on the leeward side of the chopper and gazed around. He activated his jet belt and flew up and towards the entrance to the government refuge. He scouted it well and came back. Once on the ground again he spoke in the mind and said “we are going to need one of the skimmers preferable one with a 2 star generals emblem on it. Carolyne thought for a few moments and said “I know where we can get one” She looked at Kevin and Kristyl and told them to wait close to the guard house and if a dog showed up that they must hide them selves until Bill and her arrived in the car. “Our original plan has changed” We are going to get you both outfitted with military uniforms. Give me your sizes”. Both of them did and her and Bill moved off towards the entrance to the refuge. Kevin and Kristyl moved to the location where they could watch the guard post without being spotted by a dog,

It was in the morning after Connie had left to tend the fields that Aberdeen first noticed that the stash of immunosuppressive drugs he kept in the kitchen drawer had gone missing.
He emptied the drawer and then all the drawers. In a panic, he turned the entire little cottage upside down. Alas, it was nowhere to be found and it was the last of his medication.

He ran to where Connie was working in the forest but she was just as baffled as he as to where his medication had gotten to.

Connie held his hand and tried to console him by saying that they could sell the fruit and vegetables they had been harvesting daily, but Aberdeen felt in his heart and told her as much that they would have to sell a lot of the fruit and vegetables they had planned on just giving away to the community to pay for the drugs.

Despondently, he returned to the house. He wondered to himself how he could of so absentmindedly have gone through them all without noticing.

He was just about to step into the shower, when there was a knock on the door.

Wrapping that fateful bathrobe around himself, he strode to the door and opened it.

"Well hello there Aberdeen" said Amanda, looking as if she was dressed to kill.

Her heels were so high, she towered over Aberdeen.

"Are you Aberdeen Watson?" enquired the baliff for the district, Alan Snowser, standing beside Amanda.

Aberdeen went pale. He knew the local baliff and he knew what a tough nut he was.

"Yes. Of course. You know who I am!" said Aberdeen sternly, concern clearly showing on his face.

"I'm here to serve you with a warrant" said the baliff, dutifully handing a bunch of paperwork to Aberdeen.

"For what?" said Aberdeen.

"This warrant is to remove this building from this land because there is no building permit issued for it and to also summons you to court for not having a legal permit in which to grow commercial plants for sale on this property."

"Hang on a second..." Said Aberdeen, shunning the paperwork with a wave of his hand.

"I applied for a building permit a very long time ago when I was still married to this lady." He said, pointing at Amanda. "And..and...and," he said haltingly, "I shouldn't need a permit for growing plants on my land because I am giving it all away and not selling it."

"Take it up with the courts." Said the baliff coldly, shoving the paperwork back into Aberdeens hand.

The baliff turned and left.

Amanda stood there with a smirk on her face.

"Did you think that I was going to let you go this easily Aberdeen, my Aberdeen?" said Amanda softly with a sneer. She moved closer and swiftly undid the belt of the robe, stood back and admiringly surveyed the contents within.

She grinned as he snatched the robe from her and wrapped it around himself tightly.

"Well. Being a farmer certainly does suit you Aberdeen." She said and laughed heartily at her own joke.

"I guess that I never did get around to posting that building permit for you Aberdeen," She said mockingly.

"You and your little whore housekeeper will just have to find another place to live."

"What the...!!!!" exclaimed Aberdeen angrily.

Impulsively she cried out. "Don't be a fool and come back to me Aberdeen. You know that you and I are a really good fit and I have a nice house that you and I can share. I have plans for you and this land Aberdeen and you are not about to ruin them!"

Amanda quickly checked her outburst for she was careful that no one else should hear her.

"Amanda! I..." Aberdeen began to say somethng but she checked his talk with a finger to his lips.

She gave him a sly knowing gaze and threw a quick sultry grin at him.

Her smile grew wider. She was grinning like an insane monkey.

"You know something Aberdeen. People who have heart transplants don't last very long if they don't take their meds. Their bodies start to reject their hearts and then the heart dies off."

The look on Aberdeens face as it dawned on him what Amanda had done made her momentarily flinch but she continued on, her voice menacingly treacle sweet.

"I can call off all those pesky little warrants too if you like...All you have to do is say "Yes".

If you decide that you don't want to be with me Abey, I have arranged it so that there is not one physician or drug company that will give you the medication that you need, and...I will get the government to force you to hand over the land so that they can develop it into housing for the rich."

The last part of her statement was a lie because she wanted the land for herself but Aberdeen didn't know it and she was counting on him not calling her out on her bluff. Besides, she still had that ace up her sleeve in the way of his heart medication.

For the first time in his life. Aberdeen was speechless. He knew the woman was a player but this...this was ruthless.

"Have a think about it sweety. You know where to find me." Amanda laughed. That laugh was so cold and hard, even though it was a warm day, Aberdeen shivered. She turned heel and sashayed her way back through the path that led to the carpark.

When Bill and Carolyne reached the edge of the park and the entrance to the government refuge, Carolyne opened up a portal to a car pool at West Point. Her and Bill stepped through and searched the large garage for the car that they needed. When the found it Carolyne climbed into the cockpit and goofed with the on switches. The skimmer began to warm up, as soon as it was ready she climbed out and opened a portal to the clothes lockers for uniforms and rifled through until she found the ones that she would need for Kevin and Kristyl, she opened the portal once more back to the skimmer and placed the uniforms in the back seat. She climbed back into the cockpit and motioned to Bill and Mind talked to him to open the portal to the refuge. He opened it and made sure it was big enough to drive the skimmer through. He climbed into the back seat and Carolyne moved the skimmer through the portal. A portal opened in the middle of the road and the skimmer drove through and stopped on the road. Bill and Carolyne both hoped out and Carolyne mind talked to Kevin and Kristyl telling both of them to fly over to their position. A few minutes later Kevin and Kristyl landed next to the skimmer. Carolyne told both of them to get in and dress in the uniforms. She told Kevin to dress in the lieutenant’s uniform and he would be driving the skimmer from here. Kristyl would dress in the Majors uniform and she would be riding in the back with her and Bill. She told all of them that when they reached the guard post to follow Kevin’s lead and told him what to say. Everybody put your jet belts back on under the jackets and all the other tools you will put in these pockets.

Sergeant Devin Lockwell had been assigned to this post a year ago. He had served in the Army for almost 3 years and had hoped to be stationed near his family in Missouri. He was stationed at Fort Bragg when he received news that his family had been murdered by terrorists. The news had left him devastated. He began to research the terrorist actions and what he had been told by his superiors when a close friend of his told him that the police had actually killed his entire family because his dad had been caught giving information to the local underground cell. He had been transferred here after a very bad reprimand from his superiors telling him that he could be branded a traitor for questioning his family’s death. Since being stationed here he had seen the grotesque creatures that were being experimented on. He had also witnessed the deadly weapons that were being created to be used on the American people. He had been planning his escape to the underground for months now but had to wait for the right time. The dogs had been experimented on and turned into something that seemed like a nightmare. He had always liked dogs but these creatures did not even come close to being mans best friend. He had found one in the pens below that had not been turned and took care of her. He kept her away from the others and no one suspected anything. His thoughts were on how he would escape and take Shiska with him when the 2 star generals’ car pulled up to the gate. He saw the brass and opened the gate partially.

As Kevin pulled the car up to the gate, the guard stood for a moment and then opened it just enough for him to walk through. Carolyne had been reading this mans mind and found him to be willing to leave this place and come to the light. The guard approached the skimmer and asked for them to roll their window down. Carolyne rolled the back window down and said “good morning sergeant, we are here to inspect this facility per orders from the emperor”. Devin did what guards are supposed to do and asked for their ID’s. Carolyne spoke into his mind and told him that he could leave this nightmare and find good people full of love if he wanted to. She produced some ID at the same time. Devin looked at her with a surprised expression and took the ID. He was thinking about what the Colonel had said to him in his mind and thought about Shiska. Carolyne then told him that he could bring the sweet animal with him if he so choose to leave. He placed his rifle on the ground and said “what do I have to do”? Carolyne exited the car and took hold of him. “Where is Shiska at this point”? He thought of the pen she was in and the level of the bunker. Carolyne opened a portal and Devin looked in the pen and called Shiska, She jumped up and saw him standing through a hole. She ran and jumped through and landed in his arms. Carolyne closed the portal. She turned and opened a portal to the Garden and told Devin to step into it and ask for Joanna or Christine or Sarah and they would take care of him and Shiska. He held Shiska for a moment and set her down and walked back to the guard station and opened the gate fully. He then walked back and picked up Shiska and stepped into the Garden. The portal closed and Carolyne climbed back into the car and Kevin drove it through, stopped got out and closed the gate. He then drove to the place where the other skimmer was and they all got out and headed for the Quonset building. They all had to walk a narrow path to the door to avoid the mine fields. Entering the door they all saw the elevator entrance and moved to it. The doors opened and they entered the car. The only indicator on the panel was depth to the first floor below the ground level. It read 500 feet after that there were 5 more floors or levels. They decided to go to the lowest level and start from there. Kristyl punched the button that said level 5 and they dropped into the pits of hell.

Sergeant Swamprat pulled the skimmer into the secret parking area just out side the cavern entrance to the bunker. The road to this place was a dirt road that curved down the mountain side and leveled for a short distance before a steep grade took it down the mountain further. The cavern was on the side of the mountain and no one bothered to enter it under penalty of death as the signs showed that it was a dangerous old gold mine and subject to cave ins. Any civilians that had entered it were never seen or heard from again and it garnished the name of a superstitious Old Indian name that spelled death to anyone that may enter it. From the outside the cavern looked like it had caved in on one side and the other had brush growing over the entrance. The path into the cavern entered through the brush and opened up on the other side. One had to trek about 100 yards into the cave to reach an elevator door that took personnel to the floor levels below. Colonel Bullnutt had noticed the two brown bears grazing in the meadow across the road and mentioned that once the laser rifle had been assembled they would bring it up here after the test had been accomplished below and use it on these bears. He had seen them in that meadow so many times before and he was tired of them being there. It seemed that they were watching every thing, so he was going to end it and they would make a perfect test for the weapon. They continued to the elevator doors and descended into their perfect hole of darkness.

Samuel had taken the chopper up the mountain and crossed over the old lodge and caught the mountain road down to the cave entrance to the bunker. They had seen the skimmer pull into its perfect hiding place and watched the Military brass walk to the cave entrance and disappear. He sat the chopper down close to where Kuruk was standing and grazing. The bear moved towards them and continued to walk past and as he did he said that 3 very evil humans had just entered the cave with light and they should be made to go away. Samuel spoke into Kuruk’s mind and thanked him and said that they would see about making them go away from here. Mary looked at every body and asked if they were ready. They said yes and stood up. Samuel spoke up and said hold on a minute; let’s go over this once more. We are all cloaked and will remain that way through out this mission. Everybody get a good look at where this bird sits. If anything goes south and I mean anything you will open a portal and come here immediately is that understood? Every one shook their heads in agreement. Okay once we are in that elevator and going down an alarm is probably going to sound down below. I suspect that there is some sort of reader to notify the guards below of who is in the elevator. So once we hit bottom and the doors open they are going to be ready for anyone that they see. Well they aren’t going to see anyone so we will have only a few seconds to send these people to another realm. He pulled his Time machine gizmo and spun the front dial to sometime in the past. Because we are limited in time with these people we will not have time to check their minds for good or bad. So I am going to send them to a place where we can go later and check. Okay, once we are in the lowest level, Jonathan and Samantha will search the labs for experiments and research. You know what to do when you find any of this stuff. They both shook their heads up and down. Mary and I will guard the corridors and make sure no one interferes with our progress. I want everyone here to know that the dispance cloak does not stop bullets or any other kind of weapon discharge. So be very weary about someone shooting randomly. These people have been known to do that sort of thing. We are not totally sure of what is down there so when we get to the bottom and out we start mind searching. That should lead us to something. There is another thing that we have to be very aware of. If they have any dogs down there they will be able to see us and start barking. So we must avoid any place that may have them. Everyone was well aware and they all moved to the hatch Mary opened it quickly and they all jumped to the ground and she shut it just as quickly. As they were preparing to move out across the road Sikyahonaw approached them and said we will guard the entrance so if any of the humans try to escape we will keep them from doing that. Mary walked over and gave him a big hug. He looked at her with big eyes and it seemed that he smiled at her. They all walked across the road and to the cave and went inside. The elevator doors were locked but Samuel pulled something from his vest and jimmied a panel open and pulled a wire loose. The doors opened and they all piled in and hit the button for the lowest floor level. In the distance an alarm began to sound.

Aberdeen connected with Nick Green in his dreams.

He took him to a beautiful meadow filled with flowers and long green soft grass and sorrowfully shared with him the turn of events with Amanda.

When he had finished, Nick said to him, "Brother, we are going to have to push our imaginations just a little bit further.

We will need to go beyond the beyond.

What you have said to me has made me realise that we have to up the ante.

There are those of us in this dreaming network who are determined, so very determined - with every breath and heartbeat we take - to do this.

Rest up my brother. Your heart is in good hands. Something tells me that we are only just getting started and you will receive all the help you need.

I still haven't shared with you what I have learned from our brothers and sisters who are playing out their roles in this whole game of life; Carolyne, Jim, Hava, Evelyne, Bill and all the others - too many to mention - connecting, growing, collaborating... but you and I will connect again soon.

I have an idea that will not only allow us to consolidate on what they have been planning but also assist in allowing the rest of humanity to fulfil their best and brightest dreams.

Nick then vanished and in his place, Connie stood.

Her pure sweetness and the way she looked at him with such love and tenderness made him weep softly.

She consoled him, the only way she knew how.

She took his hands in hers and she said ever so gently,

"My love, my twin flame. I have looked into your real eyes and I now see you.

For the first time in my life, I can see my way clearly to the present moment and all it represents.
We have been gifted with each other on Mother Earth for however long that may be.

Never forget that our union has birthed creative ideas that have now been realised and which are far greater than the sum of us.

I will always love you. Time nor space can touch us."

Aberdeen's heart trembled.

He felt Connie's love and inspiration the way a mountain feels the cool and pure water coursing down through it and around it. It did help somewhat to know how deeply he was loved by this amazing being.

Connie knew that Aberdeen's heart was growing weaker every day without the medication, for it wasn't only the lack of medication that was causing his heart to falter, it was the thought of all the dreams he and Connie had together for the future being destroyed. All the dreams he had of feeding the world and having children were precariously dangling in the fate of Amanda's hands and it filled him with dread and despair.

No longer could Aberdeen work in his beloved forest, he could only sit on the porch and watch from a distance as the work to harvest and prune continued. He had grown to love this forest in a way that he could never have imagined before.

He couldn't bear the thought of losing the land, the house and the woman that he now called "home".

When they stopped at the lowest level, they waited for the doors to open. When they did there were two guards standing in front with there rifles at the ready. They looked totally surprised when the doors opened and no one was in the car. One of them came forward to look up at the ceiling. That is when Samuel transferred both of them into the past. He had sent them back to the year 1921 to an Island in the south pacific. He knew the island had not been discovered yet so it would be safe for the men for now. They all climbed out of the elevator and sent it back up to the cave far above. The alarms were still ringing. Two more guards ran down the corridor towards the elevator shaft but came up short when the doors were closed and no one was there. They turned around and one walked to a wall com and called the guard station on the uppermost level. Someone answered and said no one had stopped the elevator at this level. In fact the elevator was stopped at the cave far above and not moving. They heard him saying that a malfunction could have happened and the damn elevator just operated on its own. Both guards then turned and went back up the corridor. Samuel and Mary waited until they had rounded a corner and disappeared before they moved out with Jonathan and Samantha. They began to search the doors that were in the corridor. Most of them were just storage rooms with nothing more than cleaning supplies and electronic gear parts. They had walked about 100 feet down the corridor and inspected 10 doors with nothing more than supplies when they turned the corner and came to double doors across the corridor. Mary peered through the small glass windows into the corridor beyond. She saw a rather short corridor with two more doors at the end and they had large bolts across them. In between were 4 doors two on each side of the corridor. She did not see any guards in the corridor. She thought she heard screaming or something coming from the doors that were bolted. She also heard dogs barking maybe behind one of the doors. She relayed all this to everyone and they pushed through the doors. The first thing that stopped them was the horrendous smell. As they were standing just inside the corridor from the double doors a guard came from the first door and walked to the furthest door on the other side and opened it. He stood there and shouted into the room and told the barking dogs to shut up. The dogs quit barking and all they could hear were dogs whining. The guard shut the door and walked back to the door he had come from and slammed it on his way in.

Samuel walked to the door that the guard had went in and looked through the small wired glass window. There were four guards in the room. They were sitting around playing some game or something he could not be sure. He telepathically entered there minds to see if any one was looking for a way out. He immediately recoiled and backed out. These men had been tampered with and their minds were locked in death thoughts. They had no humanity to them other than they looked like humans. It was as if their souls/spirits had been stripped from the material flesh. Mary could read his thoughts and both thought to move these creatures away. Samuel opened the door and when he did the creatures all looked up and started to reach for their weapons. Samuel and Mary both bathed them in the blue light of the time machine gizmos and they disappeared. As they reappeared, a couple of very large tyrannosaur’s turned and moved towards them. They all tried to run but were snatched up and became food in the Jurassic era. After dispatching the human like creatures that were the guards down here, Samuel moved to the door across the corridor from the guard post and opened it. All he found in it was a large wash room with floor showers. It reminded him of old photos he had seen when he was a kid of the showers in the German concentration camps of a world war back in the 20th century. He shut that door and moved across the corridor to the next door, when he opened it Jonathan peered in and said this is an R&D Lab. He turned to Samantha and they both entered and began searching the materials. What they found made both of them sick. They began to pile it all up in the middle of the lab. Once everything they could find was stacked up they used the space setting on the time gizmo and sent it all into the sun. On the sun in a very small area there was a brief flash and no one even noticed.

What is it about dreams? How is it that whenever one feels something in a dreaming state, it is felt to the core of one's very being? It is as if any falsity is completely stripped away.

The soul has no limits and no boundaries and because it is the soul that dreams, dreams also have no limits or boundaries.

If one really knew what the soul was capable of, it would empower that individual or the masses way beyond the beyond.

Kyra Johnston tossed and turned in her dream state as she discussed these feelings/ideas with her friend Arthur Curtis, the former banker and now Community Centre organiser.

Her dog Cody, lay beside her and whimpered. He was dreaming too of freedom for all the animals who were caged up in strange looking boxes. He dreamed of how he was opening the door to their cages with the aid of his friend Kyra and how the animals, great and small alike, sniffed the air, romped the grounds and sniffed each other in exaltation, free at last.
He was one of those funny little short-legged mutts with a wiry coat, a short temper, a big heart and a fiercely loyal temperament.

He loved Kyra with a fierceness that even puzzled Kyra. He wouldn't let anyone else touch a hair on her head unless she gave her express permission. Hugs were impossible unless Kyra gave Cody the signal. He would fight anyone to the death rather than have her be hurt. He didn't care who they were. Cars, bicycles, people. He would fight them all.
Anyone that looked sideways at Kyra in Cody's presence got a warning growl. Unless Kyra said the words "safe", he would throw himself on the object of threat and bite.
Kyra had to teach him that word as a tiny puppy because even then, he was so fiercely protective of Kyra.

And now he was yelping and yapping in his sleep because he was playfully chasing rabbits. He loved rabbits! Just loved the way they smelled. They smelled just like grass to him and Cody just loved to sniff grass. You never know what might be in there, an insect, a flower, a dropping from another dog...

The next two doors were waiting for an opening and discovery. Mary knew that the first one held dogs or so she though. They had all heard the barking noise and though that was what they were going to find. When Samuel opened the door they all peered in and became violently sick. These were dogs or parts of them. These creatures had been genetically modified and had parts of humans grafted to them. Some had human faces or even heads and some had human arms and hands others were mostly dogs but it was hard to tell with the eyes and ears of humans grafted. They all began to bark or try to talk when the door had been opened. Samuel pushed everyone out and shut the door locking it securely. He moved to the end doors that were bolted. Each door had a small window in it. He was afraid to look in but gritted his teeth and looked anyway. It was dark so he could not see anything. He backed away and did not want to open the doors. Samantha had been standing just behind everyone and had a suspicion of what was in that room. She saw a light switch on the wall just to the right of the doors and walked over and flipped it. The inside of the room lit up and something bounce against the doors. Jonathan walked over to peer through the glass when a half human half dog face peered out at them. It was trying to say something but they could not verbally hear it. Mary had heard something in her mind and reached into the room with her thoughts. The mass confusion and pain was almost too much to bear. She used her mind control technique and told them all to set in the center of the room and she would relieve them of their pain and suffering. Once she heard the quiet and some thought that they were ready she asked Samuel to open the doors. He unbolted them with trepidation. Mary had told them all what was in the room and they all must set their time machine gizmos for space and send these poor souls into the sun also. When they opened the doors all the creatures were setting in a circle and looking at them. The mercy was all they could do at the moment and sent them all to the end of their suffering. The room stank so bad that Samuel shut the doors while retching. Mary asked about the other creatures and Samuel told here that they would be buried under the mountain when they made it settle. They all moved away and towards the elevator shaft. They all had tears in their eyes as they moved closer to the doors. The waves of feelings rushing through their bodies had made them all stop and hug each other in a group. The cruelty and evil that had done the things to these animals and people was unforgivable. The elevator doors stood in front of them as they all cried for the souls/spirits of what was found.

Colonel Bullnutt along with lieutenant leavit and sergeant Swamprat exited the elevator on the second level. This was where the entire R&D was being done with the Particle laser rifles and he wanted to deliver the parts to complete the project as soon as possible. The 1st level was all the living quarters for the personnel and the third level was where the bad experiments had gone wrong. That level was to be avoided as much as possible. The creatures that were the guards had not seen daylight for 2 years and they would only be used in the upcoming overthrow of Montana. The other things down there he intended to test his new toy on when it got assembled.

After they all had felt the pain and fears of the creatures, Samuel, Mary, Jonathan and Samantha gathered at the elevator door. They had planned to use their jet belts to fly up the shaft to level two and take care of it and then go to level one last before setting the mountain in motion to bury this place. The doors opened and Samuel stepped in and looked up the shaft. It was very dark and he suspected that the shaft may be 1000 feet or more to the top. They all stepped into the shaft and activated the jet belts. They held each others hands as they slowly rose towards the next level. One hundred feet or so they came to the closed elevator doors of the second level. Mary pushed her mind thoughts through the doors to the corridor beyond. Just on the other side of the doors was two guards. Beyond them the corridor was empty of mind thought. However she could read a cacophony of thoughts coming from rooms or something not affiliated with the corridor. She relayed all this to the group. Samuel mentioned that they would have to manually open the doors. They were all talking telepathically to one another and had been doing that since they cloaked themselves so no one could here their voices as they conversed. Samantha knew something about these elevators from her experience in the first bunker where Bill and Carolyne had liberated them. She knew that there was a hatch above the doors that could be accessed from the ceiling in the corridor in case the elevator car became inoperable. She relayed this to everybody. Samuel moved up to the wall above the doors and found the hatch. It was about 36” square. He told everyone to set their time machine gizmos to the space he designated. He was going through the hatch and see about clearing the corridor. He would open the doors from the corridor side as soon as it was safe but they all needed to be ready for safety.

[Lost N Found]

Samuel studied the hatch door for a way to open it without making noise. He knew that it had latches on the other side but could see no way to get at them from the shaft side. This was going to have to be one of those moments when levitation came in handy. He could see the latch bottoms through the screen on this side and pointed a finger at the bottom one and shifted his finger while thinking and the latch began to turn to the side. He continued this until all four latches had been turned so the hatch literally fell out towards him. He grabbed it and transferred it to Jonathan below him. Jonathan grabbed it and held on to it. Samuel slid into the hatchway and turned his jet belt off so he could slide along the duct shaft. He came to a ceiling hatch and saw light shinning up into the duct. He moved quietly to the edge and peeked down into the corridor. He could not see the guards but he did notice a panel just to his right. It had a red light that was blinking on and off. There was a switch just below the light with the wording “ALARM OFF/ON” he reached over and switch the alarm off and the red light when dark. He could see the latches for this hatch and they worked from both sides. He began to open them and heard one of the guards talking.

A COAL MINE IN WEST VIRGINIA
Christine had spent a wonderful early morning breakfast around the campfire in the living room with everyone. They had talked about the dreamers that were gathering in larger numbers around the world and the news of children planting gardens. Christine had finally said that she had to go back to the haven and after hugging every body she opened a portal and stepped into the garden. Mark. Jim and Lionhawk all went out to the cars and after going to the plane Mark had retrieved the additional dispance cloaks and stealth gear and they began to install them into the cars. Lionhawk wanted to test them once they were installed and was amazed. He felt so much safer and reassured that these would protect Shadowself and Maria as they delivered the information to their friends. The two women had come out and they all tried the Jet belts out by flying around. Once everyone felt confident with the belts and other gear Shadowself and Maria placed the copied material in one of the cars, activated the cloak and stealth gear and left for their destinations. They were expected to be gone a good part of the day.

The men entered the shop and examined Lionhawk’s sword and his handy work with woods and such. He had built all of the cabinetry and bookcases and other furniture in the house. He had built the house a while back and the dome was a special structure that he had come up with. The material had been invented by a young person around 2024 and had been used as windows and such since then. It was some type of transparent aluminum the best Lionhawk could figure and was virtually indestructible once formed into a useable shape. They all split logs and cut down some old dead trees on the property to create more logs. Lionhawk had built a fairly good sized roof structure to store wood under so they just added the logs after splitting to the already large pile. It had become late in the afternoon when they decided to go inside and set around the fire. They all had snacked on some delicious fruits and vegetables and were talking about the mission into the bunker when Shadowself and Maria came through the kitchen doors with fresh coffee. Maria helped Shadowself carry everything over and they sat and drink some really good tasting coffee. Lionhawk had gotten up and gave Shadowself a big hug and kiss and said he missed her. Mark did the same with Maria and the women told them all about the journey to the underground locations and how they all went bonkers over the information that was given. The internet 2.2 became quite busy and people started moving things quickly. Shadowself told them that on their way back they had seen large movements of military equipment and vehicles headed towards the north and west. It all seemed more than usual so something was in the air. When curfew had sounded the streets were really crowded with vehicles and the choppers seemed to be busier than usual also. As she was telling about all of this a portal opened and some food carts rolled onto the living room floor. Christine stepped through and asked if anyone was hungry. Lionhawk jumped up and walked up the steps and smelled the delicious food and began to fill a plate. Everyone else did the same and all sat around a warm fire and ate a very heart warming meal with good conversation.

The next morning, Mark had gotten up and went to the plane to warm it up. The little plane could hold 6 people comfortably but one space had been utilized with the new computer and other gear needed to make this bird work the way it was now. After a good hearty breakfast they all headed out the door for the plane. Buster had been mind communicated with and new what he was supposed to do while they were away. The mission had been discussed over breakfast. Lionhawk would be meeting two other lion warriors and they would be guarding and fighting off the dark creatures as the two women and Jim searched for the experiments and research to get rid of. They all had been filled in on the possible things they might find in this black pit. It was said that at some time in the past when the miners were digging deeper and deeper that they opened a cavern that had a very black thing and a lot of them lost their lives until this had been caved in and the mining stopped moving in that direction. This all happened back in the 1920’s and the mines were closed off in this particular area. It was discovered in 1973 that the Congress of the US INC had opened this mine back up unknown to the people and created a secret city where they could all escape a nuclear holocaust if one came. It was not known or had been forgotten about what had been unleashed in the 20’s and then buried.

Arie had mind spoke with Mark about where to land the plane, Him and Chephirah had been watchers for quite a while now and had seen humans come and go. Always the mountain side would slide just enough to allow a few humans to enter or exit. The metal beasts they came in would hide in an area just to the upper thick trees from their position. Mark had a clear picture in his mind of a dirt road to the south east of the opening and brought the plane into a smooth landing. He taxied to an area that he could get the plane off the road into a clearing. He parked the plane so it would be facing towards the road and shut the engine down leaving the dispance cloak on as well as the stealth gear. Lionhawk had been holding his sword and everyone else including him began to clip the gear to their fatigues. Thanks to Carolyne they all had them on. They waited for a safe moment and exited the plane. Once they were standing outside, Lionhawk placed his sword on his back in its scabbard. It was situated such that he could grab it and pull it out with his right hand or left hand which ever one was most convenient to him. They each had the time machine gizmos strapped to the clips on the fatigues and Maria had given them the Bluegreen lifesavers spray containers. They all started to walk towards the opening in the mountain when Arie and Chephirah walked through some brush and stopped in front of them. Maria walked to Aria and hugged him and then Chephirah. Lionhawk stood starring at both of them. His dream was real. Arie and Chephirah both padded over to him and stood on their hind legs and wrapped their front paws around him. They both bumped the sides of their heads to his. The smile on his face shined as he hugged them. “My brother and sister, I have seen you in my dreams and here you are” we will stand together this day in spirit and flesh. Both lions dropped down and sat back on their haunches. Shadowself walked over and stood next to Lionhawk. Chephirah stood and moved to her and spoke into her mind. “You are this warrior’s mate and you will be protected as well as the others today. The journey will be dark and hard. You have been on these journeys before in your distant past but today you will not be thrown down and with that she stood up on her hind legs and seemed to hug Shadowself. She rubbed the side of her head against Shadowself’s face and her whiskers tickled Shadowself, She giggled and rubbed her face against Chephirah. The beautiful cat dropped down and set back once again.

Jim spoke in his mind to Arie. “Do you have a way to get in the mountain”? Arie spoke and said “yes but it is not where the mountain slides open”. We must go around the side over this way and Arie turned his head to look the direction they all had to go. Both lions started padding off towards the southwestern area of the hill side. Everyone followed and they walked for around 300 yards before the lions stopped and set down on their haunches again. In front of them was a round concrete structure with a lid and air vents on the sides. It stuck out of the ground about 6 feet or so and was painted a camouflage green and tan. If one was not standing directly in front of it the concrete shaft could not be seen. Mark took one look and said, “Ah, an air vent” he walked up to it and examined it. He wanted to know how to remove the lid. Lionhawk and Jim came over and they all began to shift the lid. It was quite heavy but they managed to move it enough that at least one human could get in. Jim looked into the dark and took out a small flash light and shined it down the hole. There was a steel ladder down the side but he could not tell how far it went down before a landing might be. The only thing they could do at this point is send someone down to explore. Lionhawk volunteered to scout down the hole. Mark said he could do it and would go down far enough to see if there was a level area and where they might go from there. Arie spoke in their minds and said “Chephirah and I have been inside the mountain where it moves sideways we went in one time when the mountain moved and no one went in and no one came out. When we got in we found that there was a box just a little ways in. there were bright lights and we heard human mind thoughts inside the box. We hurried back out and soon after that the mountain moved and closed. There is one other place that we have seen humans go into and come out of. They have taken the metal monsters into that opening. There is a wall inside the cave that opens and closes

They all looked at each other and said “that is a vehicle entrance and may be our best way into this place” Jim asked Arie to show them that particular entrance. Arie told them that it would take another time to walk there. The all agreed to at least investigate the third entrance so they trekked of towards west and the walk was down hill all the way. 30 minutes later they came to a mound of some sort and Arie told them that the entrance was on the other side of this little hill. Lionhawk walked up to the mound and lay down on the bank and shimmied up to look over the edge. Peering over he saw the cave or tunnel entrance that had been concreted and looked like a square. It could not be seen from the air because it was set back into the cliff side and trees surrounded the entire place. He saw the road or what might be a road coming from the entrance. It actually looked like a grassy meadow. He heard a noise of a car or truck and ducked down. The noise grew louder and when he peeked back up over the edge a military troop carrier came out of the cave and headed straight into the tree line. The vehicle left no tire tracks as it moved into the trees. He noticed a swath of openness in the trees and saw what looked like a road. The vehicle disappeared, he turned around and waved at everyone to stay low and then disappeared over the edge. Shadowself started to say something but Lionhawk spoke in her mind and said “I will be back I must see if this is a way into the bunker. She spoke back and told him to be very careful.

[Lost N Found]

Lionhawk moved with a fluid motion and entered the tunnel entrance and found a column jutting out that he could hide behind. The tunnel appeared to go back about 100 feet before he saw the big steel doors. As he looked closer he saw a man door to the left of the steel doors in the side of the tunnel. There were small red lights blinking on and off all along the top of the steel doors. He moved over to the side of the tunnel that the man door was on and slowly inched his way up to the door. It was about 20 feet from the big steel doors. He examined it closely and figured that it was going to be their only way into this pit. He looked closer at the door and noticed it had the old time lock system that actual took a key. He figured there would be an alarm system on it. As he was scoping the tunnel for more information he noticed a grill above the man door. It was on the wall about 12 feet about the floor. It looked like it might be an air ventilation vent; he filed that away for an entrance access and started to move back out. He got to another column jutting out and heard the steel doors start to open. He dove behind the column and waited. The doors opened up and two transports rolled out. As they drove by, Lionhawk felt a cold chill up his spine. He was watching and saw the first vehicle pass by and it had a black aura around it. The tunnel had light spilling in from the front entrance but this vehicle moved with a hazy black cloud surrounding it. The second vehicle was similar. He shrank into the crevice of the column as far as he could while these things drove by and out the front. When they exited the tunnel he could still see the blackness around them. When they had driven into the forest and disappeared he saw Arie jump down the bank and his eyes were full of blue light. Lionhawk then remembered his dream and took his sword out and it was shinning very brightly. The big steel doors clanged shut and spooked him. He ran out and joined Arie and they both climbed the bank and disappeared on the other side.

UNDER THE COTTONWOODS
As the elevator dropped all of their stomachs rose to the position in their throats. The car felt like it had just fallen and they were going to be squashed at the bottom. Kristyl watched the levels zoom by as they descended and then the car slowed and stopped. Their stomachs fell back with a thunk and they waited for the door to open. They were prepared to react to any guards but when the door opened the corridor was completely dark except for some red lights close to the ceiling. Kevin stepped out and almost tripped. He had to step down. Apparently the elevator did not go all the way to the floor level. When he stepped down his boots splashed into water. He flashed his light into the corridor and it had water all over the floor. The walls were cracked and water was leaking into the corridor. There were sounds of water running and he thought he saw holes in the floor as his light shone down the corridor. He climbed back into the elevator and Kristyl closed the door. She pushed the button for the next level and the elevator again shot up this time. For a short space their stomachs fell into their legs then the elevator stopped abruptly. This time when the door opened the corridor was still dark but the sound of water was not to be heard. Kevin shinned his flashlight at the floor and down the corridor this time. He stepped out of the car and walked the corridor. All the doors had been bolted over with heavy bars. As he walked further he came to the end of the corridor. It was only about 50 feet or so from the elevator. He turned and headed back to the car. Once there he told them what he saw. “This level appears to have been abandoned also, no telling what is behind those doors but the corridor is not very long. They closed the door and punched the button for the level above.

Another very quick rush and stop that made all of them bend at the knees brought them to level three. This time when the door opened they saw two guards sitting at desks about 20 feet from the elevator door. Directly behind was a heavy wired wall structure with a locked door gate. The corridor ran for about 100 feet or so and ended into a solid granite wall. When the guards looked at them, their eyes were solid black and there was no expression on their faces. The one on the right began to salute while the one on the left continued to fiddle with something at his desk. Carolyne had reached into their minds only to find that both of them had been brainwashed for so long that they could hardly even comprehend a simple word such as hello. She stepped forward and said in a commanding voice “ATTENTION!!!”. Neither one even acknowledged that command but rather the one standing and starting to salute dropped his hand and sat back down. She knew it would be hopeless to get these two to obey or even respond. When she read their minds she did see a simple command to attack had been programmed in and that was triggered by a very simple response such as a return salute. The first guard had tried to trigger that response. They both had their weapons close at hand and the one that tried to salute had his in his hands. She also read a response of program to control these two and used it on them. She spoke “dog bone” and both men leaned back in their chairs and their eyes closed and they were asleep just like that. She walked over picked the weapons up and handed them to Bill. He took his TM gizmo and sent the weapons to the caverns below. Carolyne picked up some keys and tried them until she found the one that unlocked the gate. She thought to send these two to a very good place where they would fit right in but knew they would not wake up until the another key word was given. The military had used these men for fodder in their nasty little control experiments and it made her sick to know that this was happening all over. She told everyone what was going on and to just be on alert.

They all walked through the gate and down the corridor. Even though this corridor was 100 feet long there were only 4 doors in the entire length. The first one just inside the fence wall was a restroom with showers. Directly across the corridor was sleeping quarters with a kitchen. At the end of the corridor were two doors one on the left side and one on the right side. She opened the first door and the cacophony of barking made her back up. They all walked into the room and it was considerable in size. It was full of cages with dogs in each one. This was where she had opened a portal through Devin’s mind and retrieved Shiska. She began to search minds to find dogs that had not been experimented on and found 7 more in cages. They were being slowing starved to death and she could here their pain and suffering. Carolyne began to wonder through the cages and as she came across the poor dogs she stopped and opened the cage doors and brought the dog out and opened the portal to the garden and pushed them through. Devin had been told by Sarah that more of the little brothers would be coming and they had facilities to take care of them. Carolyne kept finding the sick ones and pushing them into the garden. When there were none left she stopped and stood quietly for a few minutes. The rest of these creatures she felt sorry for but they all had been experimented on and transformation had made them all killers. Their eyes were a deep black and had small red pupils. The teeth had been expanded into thick long canines and the other teeth resemble Piranha mouths. The brains of these creatures only thought about killing and blood. She and Kristyl both were full of tears at what the military had done with dogs and humans. It appeared that all they could experiment on was dogs and humans. The sickness had been ingrained in the power hungry brass and it had to stop soon. She turned with Kristyl and they walked out of the room. Bill and Kevin set the TM Gizmos and sent these things to a place that their souls/spirits might be redeemed. They walked from the room and locked the door. The women had entered the room across the corridor and discovered it was a lab of considerable size and stock. Both of them had begun to send it all to the sun for destruction. When Bill and Kevin walked in most of the room had been cleaned. They all searched for any loose ends and when that was found it was sent away. When they left the room and locked it they headed back to the elevator. Carolyne locked the fenced gate and took mercy on the two guards. She set her time machine for the year 1894 and a mental facility on an island off of the Georgia coast called Jekyll island and sent these two there. She did not use the word to wake them up. They all entered the elevator, shut the door and pushed the button for the next level up.

THE MINES OF GEROU AND LASERS
Corporal Harry Johansson had been stationed in the mines of Gerou, as most here referred to this bunker, for almost 8 months and the duty of guarding this level had become so monotonous it made him sick. He had gotten leave only once since being here and it was only to go to that lodge up on the mountain. He had been to the lowest level twice now and it gave him the creeps both times. The guards down there did not seem like human beings and they would not talk to anyone but themselves. The things in the rooms at the end of the corridor were the spookiest thing he had ever heard. He never got to look or see them but from what he had heard, he did not want to ever see them. He and Private Jack billings were bivouacked above on level one but they had to come here to do the duty of guarding the elevator shaft. He could never figure that out but it was not up to him to question the orders. There was a guard quarters down here but they did other duties. He had talked privately with Jack about getting out of the Army and doing something that was more conducive to humanity than destruction of freedoms and creativity. He also knew that the scientists down here were working on some very deadly weapons and it had leaked out on what these weapons were and what they would be used for. The arrival of the Colonel and his lieutenant this morning had confirmed that something was happening today that had to do with that Laser weapon.

After listening to the Corporal talk and reading his mind Samuel determined that he had a chance to get everyone into the corridor. He finished twisting the latches and slowly lifted the hatch. He was now free to drop into the corridor but still was not completely sure of the guards. He reached out and talked with them in their minds to feel the reaction. Harry and Jack both stood very still at their posts and asked questions in their minds. Samuel answered and told them that he could get them out now if they so chose. Harry had been waiting for just such a chance and to his surprise Jack had been waiting also. They both turned and looked up at the hatchway in the ceiling and spoke very softly, whoever you are you can come down and we will cooperate. Samuel dropped from the ceiling and stood in front of them. Neither one of them could see him and he had his time machine gizmo set to place them into the garden. In their minds he told them that when they entered the place he would send them to, they needed to talk with Sarah or Christine. Both guards leaned their weapons up against the corridor walls and waited for this man to do what he said he would do. Samuel pressed the button and a portal of sorts opened in front of them and he said step into that garden you see. Both stepped through and the portal closed. Samuel walked to the elevator doors and opened them. Everyone floating in the shaft stepped into the corridor. He walked over to the rifles leaning on the wall and picked them up and walked back to the shaft. He made sure the weapons did not have any rounds in them and dropped them down the shaft. He waited until he heard them clatter at the bottom and then closed the doors. Jonathan had lifted up and replaced the hatch in the shaft and Samuel did the same to the ceiling opening. They all began moving down the corridor towards the activity of minds.

Colonel Bullnutt had personally delivered the parts and a chip to the scientist that had resumed this project after the rogues had stolen it and destroyed all the research in Wyoming. This man had actually been smart enough to copy all of the work that had been created by one of those scientists. The Colonel could not remember his name but if that man was ever found he would personally use this weapon set to full function on him. He would take pleasure in seeing this person melt in front of his evil eyes.

Hanz Krieber had been given the project to continue the development of the Particle Laser rifle, after the destruction of the labs and bunker in Wyoming. He had hidden for more than a year and was fortunate to be doing research at a different base when the unfortunate destruction happened. He had copied everything he could from Jonathan Williams before he had left for that other base. The unfortunate part of the whole deal was that Jonathan had left out certain pieces of information that would complete the rifle. After a year in hiding he looked up this Colonel Bullnutt and told him about the rifle. The Colonel had been following the progress of it when it had been destroyed so he was more than happy to take this man and place him in the Gerou bunker in charge of completing the project. It had been 2 years or more with a lot of failures but the man had finally come up with some designs of crucial parts and a state of the art chip that would need to be installed. The bunker at Flaxville was responsible for manufacturing the parts. The bunker in Butte was responsible for the chip. That facility was where the computer geeks did all their experimenting and research. He had been waiting for 3 weeks for Flaxville to get the parts made and another 6 months prior for the geeks to build the chip to his specifications. So when the Colonel showed up this morning he was very excited to finally get to assemble the weapon and give it a try out. All of his other experiments did not turn out very well and quite a few people and animals had been destroyed. One of his closest friends had been blown up when the rifle exploded in his face as he was testing it. Today was going to be the final day of completion. The Colonel had told him that if he did not make this one work he would be replaced and the threat led him to believe that he would not be leaving this facility alive.

He took the parts and walked into the interior lab behind a solid wall of 4 foot thick concrete. In here was a firing range built into the mountain where there had been a mining tunnel at one time. The prototype for the rifle sat in a cradle on a bench. The rifle was only 3.3 feet long and he planned to make a model that was even shorter for better combat maneuverability. It resembled the old style M16 from the 20th century war in Vietnam. The differences were notable. The barrel was all glass or the material that looked like glass but was completely unbreakable in any circumstance. It was the color of gun metal blue and had holes along both sides. It was only 1 inch in diameter so it did resemble a rifle. A stock had been designed for forward grasping and the main frame looked just like the M16. The big difference was where the magazine was supposed to go. It still looked like a ammo magazine once inserted in the rifle but it held all the parts and the chip that the colonel had delivered this morning. This was the only removable part of the weapon and caused the rifle to function as the particle laser. The lever that looked like the switch between semi auto and full auto was now the switch to use for lobotomy only or in the down position for full melting of organic matter. He took the Magazine and split it apart and began installing the parts. Once they had been clipped into place he then took the chip which was the most important part of the entire rifle, without it the rifle was just a toy and did absolutely nothing, and slipped it into its special slot. The chip was about ½” square and had two small prongs at one side to plug into the casement. The design he had finally come up with was the ideal secret that had insured his safety. He had hid it away in a special place that no one would ever find. Even those geeks at Butte only had a schematic and did not know how the thing had been designed. They did not have the final piece of the chip that made the entire thing work. After the Colonel had delivered everything to him he made sure no one was in the lab to see him attach that part and put it together while he was assembling the other parts. Once all of this was assembled, he jammed the magazine into the bottom slot. There was no priming the weapon other than jamming the magazine into it. Two lights flashed on the side and then became a dull yellow in color. He knew the rifle was ready for test firing. He walked to the bench with the cradle and placed the weapon so that it pointed down range to a place where a target would be stationed. He had rigged the cradle so he could pull the trigger from a safe place located behind a solid steel plate that had a small view port. He did not want a repeat of what had happened to his fellow scientist.

Hanz notified the Colonel that he was ready for test firing and they could bring in the test subject for the first phase. The door to the inner lab/range opened and two guards hauled a half drugged man in and down the range to a place where there were manacles embedded in the wall. They locked his wrists into the bracelets and hurried back. Hanz then remotely aimed his weapon towards the man’s head. He looked up and noticed the man was sergeant Swamprat. He turned toward the Colonel with a question on his face. The Colonel shrugged and said “he was becoming a nuisance and I need a new driver, now shall we get on with this test? Hanz turned and grasped the joy stick with a trigger. He pushed it around until the target crosshairs rested on the sergeant’s forehead. At that moment the sergeant came out of his drug induced condition and looked at where he was. He started yelling and using foul language at the Colonel. Hanz pulled the trigger and a bright reddish yellow beam flashed from the barrel and hit the sergeant square on his forehead. The sergeant froze in the beam and his face went blank. His mouth fell open and drool spilled out. His entire body went limp and his knees buckled as he slid down the wall. His arms were still buckled into the manacles so he hung against the wall. Fluids were leaking from his face and his eyes were moving in circles or so it seemed. The Colonel asked how long it would be before they could be sure this phase worked. Hanz said “we will know within a half an hour or so”. The Colonel told him to call when the time was up and turned and left

A RAINY NIGHT IN GEORGIA
Michael pulled the suburban off the road and close to the front gate of the base. The guard was sitting in his shack reading a book. As they sat there a military skimmer drove up and the guard looked up and then raised the Guard rail. The skimmer moved through and the Guard rail fell back down across the road. The Guard went back to reading his book. Michael decided that they would have to park in a different area so they could exit the suburban without attracting attention. He pulled the truck around and headed back up the road. While driving to the north on the entrance road to the base he came across a dirt road that turned off and went east through a meadow and seemed to disappear into s small grove of trees. He swung the suburban onto it and drove slowly through the meadow and into the grove of trees. Once in the trees the road wound back towards the south. They all were watching close for a pull off but the road kept going through the trees towards the south. As they kept moving Susanna saw a fence line up ahead and Michael slowed even more as they approached it. The trees were still thick but the road seemed to turn at the fence and head back towards west along the fence line. They drove along the fence line for a short space and then the road turned back towards the north and wound through the trees. As they followed it the road turned to the west once again and paralleled the fence. Coming to what looked like the end of the tree grove they popped out and there was the guard station about 200 hundred yards in front of them. The fence ran at an angle to the road towards the north and west. The road ended in a turnaround about 50 yards from the edge of the trees. Michael had stopped at the edge of the trees and they all had scoped the terrain and position of the guard post as well as the base on the other side of the fence. Susanna had noticed the large group of choppers resting on the pads just over the fence line and then mentioned the buildings just beyond the chopper field. Those buildings are where the Generals office was and other administrative offices. Just beyond those to the south is the barracks for all the enlisted men. Daniel spoke then and said “the main road or drive through there from the Guard entrance runs to the south and leaves the base at the southern entrance. It is around a mile or so to that Guard post and gate”.

Michael had noticed a widened area of the road just before they came to the end of the tree line. He began to back up until he got past it and then moved forward into it. The trees opened here somewhat so he turned back towards the road and backed into a small opening between the trees until he was off the road and could be hidden if the truck did not have the dispance cloak on. They had planed to leave it on as well as the stealth gear. They had seen the choppers flying overhead and searching the areas around the base. “We can use this area to disembark and get back to for Daniel and Theresa. Put this in your minds to open the portal to. Susanna kept looking at the fence through the only opening they could see and said “We could use the belts to fly over the fence and onto that chopper field so we can fix one. I would think that the closest one to us would be the best”. Michael agreed with that strategy and they talked about how far it was to the little building that had the motors for the road and the elevator to get into the bunker. We are going to see how many Policemen they have above ground in the holding cells. The coordination is going to be tight for us. Once we know how many to free above ground we have to also know how many to free from below and give them a way to move with the ones top side. I believe we will have to open the portals to the top from below so those down there will just step into the open next to the prison on top. Theresa, you will use the telepathy in your special way to coordinate these people. The best we can do with all of them is give them truth first and then set them free to do what they will. You must tell them where all the choppers are and if we run into any transports give that information to them also. Now, we can’t move all of this until we get rid of the metal things and all of that research. We must see what exactly it is that they have created first in order to remove it. Remember, our goal is to destroy the bad stuff first and then free as many as possible and at the same time collapsing the entire underground bunker. Does everybody got a good picture of that? Everyone shook there heads in agreement and they all outfitted themselves with the gear. Michael and Susanna were going to reconstruct the chopper first and once that was done they all would move towards the south area. “Here is a big unknown factor for us all” Theresa said. It is known that the animals can see us when we are cloaked so it these guards are walking around with dogs we will have to be extra careful that we are hidden or we mind talk to these dogs to ignore us. We do not know if these dogs have been altered or not, according to Mary and Carolyne the altered dogs can not be talked to and will come after us no matter what. Everyone knew the risks with the dogs at this point.

Michael and Susanna had waited until dark and had flown over the fence and landed next to the closest chopper. They had the extra dispance cloak and the newest stealth gear. Michael had also brought the Jet engine box but knew that they could not push it till they refit the structural of the chopper. They made sure that no guards were in the area and boarded the chopper. Once in they completed the upgrades and Susanna took the old dispance cloak box and sent it to the bottom of the Marianna Trench. They turned the dispance cloak on and the chopper disappeared from the field. Michael had activated the stealth gear and the chopper became completely invisible to anyone. He had also flipped the switches to warm up the bird because he knew they would not have time to do it when they completed the mission. After they were done they both flew back to the suburban and gathered Daniel and Theresa.

Landing just outside the prison holding cells on the south side of the base they all stood while Theresa pushed her mind into the building and connected with whomever she could. She shivered at first but gained control and spoke to one of the men in the first cell. His mind was full of fear and she calmed him by telling him that he would be free soon. He must listen for her to talk in his mind again but now he must be calm and talk quietly to his cell mates and spread the news of their coming opportunity of escape. She also told him about the choppers to the north from them and showed him the route they must take. She also told him of the men that would be given a chance to escape from the bunker. He must be calm and wait was her last speak to him. They all moved to the little building and made sure no guards or dogs or anyone else was around and then uncloaked themselves. Michael let Susanna and Theresa take the lead and they all entered the building.

Master Sergeant Matthew Fallow had been setting inside the elevator building reading a manual on how to build a dome structure. He was due to retire within the year and he and his wife were going to move to Arizona and build a small dome house on some land he had acquired in the eastern mountains. The duty of guarding this elevator shack to the secret underground bunker was the Armies way of punishing him for not reenlisting. He did not know what was going on down below but he had seen the policemen being brought in with shackles around their ankles and hands. It was disconcerting to see these good men being taken into the pit. He did not know what they had done but he knew that they did not deserve what ever might be happening to them down there. He had been working on a plan to free some of them. He had never seen any of them come back up and suspected they were being assassinated down there. These were his thoughts and how he was going to build the dome structure when the door opened and two Colonels walked in. He looked up and was surprise that these to officers stood in front of him and then a 1 star General and a Master General walked in behind them. The book dropped from his hand and he stood up in a straight attention position. The lieutenant Colonel looked at him and all he could see was a very pretty woman with red hair starring at him. This Colonel reminded him of his wife who also had red hair. He loved her so much. The Colonel walked closer to him and bent down, she picked up the manual he was reading and looked at it. He did not know what was coming next but it almost dropped him to his knees when she handed the manual back to him and said “that will be a very nice home for you and your wife sergeant her name is Melinda is it not”? He shook his head yes but his speech was gone. He swallowed hard and kept standing there. He had started to salute but the woman smiled and said that won’t be necessary Matthew. He closed his eyes and prayed that he would not be taken down below for this breach of military protocol. The woman spoke into his mind and calmed him. She told him that he could go home to Melinda and they both could go to Arizona now if he wished. He did not know how to respond again but she filled his mind with how to do everything and the military would never know where he went. He knew what to do then and she smiled. He reached over and opened a panel. The elevator door opened. He then picked up his manual from the desk where he had placed it when she had handed it to him. He held it to his chest and dropped his duty belt as the woman opened a hole in front of him. He saw Melinda standing in front of him and reached out and hugged her. He turned and the refrigerator was all he saw. He and Melinda packed their stuff up and left within 4 hours and headed for Arizona. Melinda had told him that a woman had stood in front of her and told her all about him coming home and them leaving for their dreams.

It began to rain outside when they all piled into the elevator and shut the door and pushed the button for level two which was the lowest level. The elevator dropped like a rock and then stopped. The door opened and in front of them stood a robot or so they thought.

A SHOT IN THE DARK
Samuel and Mary led the way down the corridor. This corridor was longer than the one below and well lit. It did not have a lot of doors but from what they saw there were at least 6 or 7 doors in the first 150 feet of corridor. At the end of the first section there were double doors across the corridor and they looked like they might be locked. Jonathan and Samantha were peering through the little glass windows in each door and the ones that were solid they opened and looked in. Two of them were restrooms and two more were storage rooms with extra supplies and cleaning stuff. As they approached the halfway mark of this first section, the double doors opened and a full bird Colonel and a lieutenant walked through. The Colonel seemed to be mad about something and told the lieutenant that he should not worry about the sergeant. The man had been caught steeling from all the officers at Fort Witch ell and it was just a matter of time until he was either killed or thrown in the prison for life. So he was doing the sergeant a favor both men proceeded to the closest door on the right side and entered. Everyone had stopped moving until these men had gone into the room. They heard dogs barking and figured that one of the rooms might have cages for the animals and another one might be quarters for guards

[Lost N Found]

As they approached the end of the corridor, there were three doors left. Samantha looked through the glass of the closest to them and saw the guard’s room. She could see three guards sitting at a table and it looked like there might be 7 bunks. She knew they had already sent two of them off on this level and the ones down below were also gone. She did not think that the guards on level three mixed with these guards so that left two others unaccounted for at least. She told everyone this. The next door over had to be the dog’s cages and the door across the corridor where the brass had entered could be a mess hall or offices. It would be hard to tell without peering into the small window. Samuel walked over and looked. It was a mess hall and he could see the Colonel and the lieutenant sitting at a table eating something and drinking coffee. There were at least two people working the counter and he saw at least one more guard sitting at a table eating. Mary had walked up to the double doors and peered through the windows. It was a very large lab with a couple of doors leading into other rooms. There were at least a dozen scientists working on various experiments. As she was watching a man came out of a door and moved towards a desk. He reminded her of the people she had seen when she was a little girl. He was tall and had blond hair or partially white. He carried himself like those people, he walked very stiffly. She watched him move to a desk and pull a drawer open. He looked wearily around and pulled a German looking Lugar pistol out and slid it into his white coat pocket and then turned and went back through the door he had come from. When he opened that door and went through she noticed that it was inset into a wall that could be very thick

They all heard the intercom speaker, “Colonel Bullnutt please report to Lab 2”. Everybody gathered to rush into the lab when the Colonel and his lieutenant entered. They waited and the Colonel came out by himself and walked to the double doors. Samuel stepped back and told everyone to get in and he would check out the mess hall. Mary started to object but Samuel told her that she must guard Jonathan and Samantha. That Colonel had something quite important in the second lab and they needed to find out what it was. He would follow as soon as he made sure it would be secure out here. Mary felt some trepidation but she knew he was right. When the Colonel entered the doors he swung them wide open and blustered his way into the large lab. The three cloaked people rushed in before the doors automatically shut. They were in the large lab and followed the Colonel to the door that led to the inner lab or lab 2. When the Colonel opened the door and walked through Jonathan and Mary went with him and moved to a wall just inside. Samantha had stayed outside in the big lab. She had noticed something and read the minds of a couple of the scientists that were working on some very deadly viruses that were being contained and sealed for shipment to Wyoming for mass production to be used in Texas. This stuff would kill hundreds of thousands of people within a few days once released.

Inside the lab and test range the Colonel had approached the scientist and asked if he was ready to fire the second phase” the scientist said yes but first the colonel should take a close look at the sergeant before they dissolved him. The Colonel looked at him with suspicion but passed it off for now. “Okay what is wrong with the first phase he asked as they both started to walk down range. Mary saw the scientist fiddling with his jacket pocket and knew that this person intended to do something with this Colonel. She and Jonathan watched as the two men walked towards a third man that was slumped on the wall at the far end. That man was shackled to the wall; Jonathan walked over to the rifle in its cradle and told Mary what it was. If this goes any further than here this world will be in a very sorry state. We must destroy it before it leaves this room. Mary heard him loud and clear and continued to watch the two men walking towards the slumping man. Jonathan walked behind the wall and found the joystick. He looked through the little window and moved the stick so the laser rifle began to target the two men walking away. He knew what it could be capable of but did not know that it had been set to dissolve organic matter. He was intending to disable the two men and then destroy this insidious device. When the two men reached the poor soul that was shackled to the wall the Colonel reached out and slapped the man on the wall then raised his head and yelled an obscenity at him. The man did not move or flinch or anything. When the Colonel turned to ask the scientist what was wrong, he stopped short because the scientist had pulled his pistol out and had it pointed at the Colonel. Mary heard him say to the Colonel that he would be the second test subject and told him to get his hands up. The Colonel grabbed for the gun and it went off. The Colonel fell back and hit the wall. He grabbed his stomach and began to curse at the scientist. The scientist walked up to him and bonked him across the face. Whatever he said to the Colonel Mary could not here. The scientist began to take the colonels arm and place it into another shackle on the wall. The Colonel was loosing strength by then and could not fight the scientist off, Mary was watching all this going on when all of sudden a bright reddish yellow beam hit both men and they melted in front of her. She looked over at Jonathan and he was starring down range with wild eyes. He was starting to break down and Mary moved over quickly and removed the joy stick from his hand. She walked around the wall and dialed her TM Gizmo and sent this thing into the sun. She turned to Jonathan and said “what did you do”? He said “I don’t know but make this thing go away also. She made the joy stick go away and then reset her Gizmo and sent the poor soul hanging on the wall to a mental ward in the past. Carolyne had talked to her about what she had done to the guards they had found. Something told her that the scientist had hidden some very important information about this weapon but he was gone and they would never find what it was he had hid.

Samuel had walked across the corridor and looked in the window of the mess room door. What he saw make him back up and retch. He swallowed his bile and pushed through the door. The lieutenant, the two additional guards and the two cooks attending the kitchen had all been murdered. They all had bullet holes in their heads. They had been shot at close range and he knew it was that mad Colonel that did this. He wandered how that wacko thought he was going to get away with this. He flipped his dial on the TM Gizmo and sent all of the bodies to a military base in Michigan where he had been stationed for a short period. The next thing he did was go out and cross the corridor to the guard quarters. When he looked in he saw the three still sitting around the table. He reached in with his mind and tried to touch their minds. He read one mind and that person was susceptible to leaving this miserable, nightmarish place the man was thinking strong and hard about his wife and son. His wife was due to have another child within the month and wanted nothing more than to take care of them. He had dreamed of living on a piece of land located around a lake in eastern British Colombia. Samuel reached him and told him to come out the door for a moment and he could have his dream come true.

WHERE THE BUFFALO ROAM
As the elevator door opened to level two the two Guards standing at ease saw the high brass and both came to attention. Everyone stepped out into the corridor and the lieutenant walked to the Guards and asked in a gruff voice, “where is the commander of this bunker corporal”? The corporal said “Sir he is at the end of the corridor in the lab sir” Carolyne walked over and said “we are here on a surprise inspection corporal and you and the private here will stand your post and not inform the commander we are here. We have been sent by the Emperor” “How many personnel are on this floor and how many are on the level above here. The corporal answered her and said “there were 5 civilian scientists, The Major and a lieutenant and us two guards. Maam I mean sir”. Carolyne starred at him and said “and the floor above corporal or should I say private”? The corporal swallowed hard and was visibly shaking. “Sir Yes Sir” The level above is empty during the day or working shifts. All the scientists work on this level where the lab is located”. Carolyne kept prodding him and asked about the 5th level. He told her that the 5th level had been abandoned right after they had begun construction. There is an under ground spring that could not be diverted or stopped”. Carolyne stood very stern and shoved her face into his. She said “Corporal, The Emperor has continued to funnel credits to this facility so that level and level four could be completed and you’re telling me that level 5 hasn’t even been worked on since the beginning”? The Corporal started to say something and she said “Do not interrupt me Corporal” He shut his mouth and she continued, “now there are two more levels below this one and level four is not usable and the rooms are bolted shut, You want to tell me why”? He spoke and said “There are no rooms on level 4 maam, I mean Sir” “What do you mean by that corporal” “Sir, after drilling the corridor the rooms were started but could not be drilled out, the openings were cut and the drills bored in about 5 feet and the next day they were solid again. We could not figure how that was happening. After several months of the same thing the doors were bolted shut and that level was abandoned also. So Corporal you are telling me and the General here that this facility has been receiving credits to complete two levels that have been abandoned” The corporal swallowed hard again and said “sir I would not know about that” Carolyne said “I see and we will get to the bottom of this through the Major”.” yes sir”. Kristyl stepped forward and looked at him closely, he swallowed some more bile she was sure. “Tell us about level three, corporal. That one had a lab in operation, is it still operating and what progress has been made”. The corporal said he did not know and she would have to talk to the Major on that one. The only thing he did know was that no one was allowed to go to level three. As far as he knew all the levels below this one were off limits. No one here today, except the Major, had been down there. This facility has operated on a limited budget. They bring in guards from the city and the major goes down with his lieutenant to fetch a dog when they are needed to walk the perimeter. The Major and the lieutenant do not even stay here”. When ever the Major shows up he brings some creature that is his pet. The thing looks almost human but crawls around like some kind of crab or something. Everyone here dreads it when he brings that thing. He usually leaves it at level one and it roams free. No one wants to go up there until the Major leaves.

Kevin stepped forward to ask this poor soul if he had any idea of what was being done in the lab, the corporal said he did not know and he and the private just guarded the elevator door. He admitted that it got a bit spooky because every once in a while they could here strange sounds coming up the elevator shaft. Bill had listened to all of this and finally stepped forward and told both men to continue their duty and he would get to the crux of whatever was happening down below. Both guards stood at attention as the party walked down the corridor towards the double doors of the lab at the end of the corridor. Carolyne spoke into their minds and said “it would appear that this Major has taken one of those poor creatures that was experimented on and made it his favorite pet’

Major Clyde Thumbscrew had been the commanding officer at this facility since the level three experiments had started. He thought he was the luckiest officer on the face of the planet. He had no one looking over his shoulder and he called all the shots. He had a plush mansion in the city and pretty much controlled all the law enforcement as well as the political systems in all the surrounding cities and the county. He could take anything he wanted and his militarized jack boots enforced it all. He robbed all the locals’ bank accounts and if they stood up he would have his controllers either beat them or burn them out or even kill them depending how out spoken they became. The Lieutenant that brought him here was relatively new and he would have to break him in to the dictatorial duties of his little tyrannical kingdom. The last one he had tried to buck him and he had to have him taken out. When the level three experiments had ended badly he had saved one man beast that had survived and actually could follow his commands. The thing had killed for him when ever it was convenient and the last lieutenant had been a convenience that showed him what the creature could do. He had never seen it in action before until the last lieutenant. It was a very gruesome encounter. So whenever he came to the facility he would bring Doolittle with him. That had been the name of the human that had been experimented on.

The Major was standing over Christen bell berating her for not completing her experiments on the transformation of animals into humans. He wanted her to continue the failed developments of the level three experiments. She had worked on that project while down on level three and had taken a sabbatical after those experiments had failed. She came back after a year to work on the human anatomy and the animal psychics to meld them together. She knew that it was a very evil thing and did what she could to keep it from happening. She would come up with something that resembled some progress but was really a complete dead end but the Major did not know anything. Today he had come to the facility specifically to show his controlling power and had already yelled and blubbered at the rest of the team. It was his monthly berating episode and everybody had prepared for it. His voice was climbing in decibels when the lab doors opened and a two star General with his entourage walked in and stopped just inside as the doors closed. The Major was so involved with his diatribe he failed to notice. His lieutenant, who had been sitting over by the research library room, jumped up suddenly and said “ATTEN HUT” The Major shut up suddenly and turned towards his lieutenant. The expression on his face was palpable, the veins were popped out and the skin was deep red. His eyes looked like they would shoot fire any second. He began to use obscenities at the lieutenant when out of the corner of his eye he noticed the brass standing by the doors. He slowly turned to them and stopped very suddenly. He saluted and his demeanor became one of a sickly sweet tone that reminded everyone of a politician begging for a vote. He asked what he could do for them and why they had come to this lowly facility. Carolyne almost became sick from the way he had spoken to them. She decided to make this little man feel exactly the way he had been making everyone around him feel. “Major, if that is what you call yourself, General Bradley has been requested by the Emperor himself to investigate the progress of this facility”. She stepped closer to him as she spoke. You have been under investigation for quite some time now and we need answers to a number of questions that the emperor has”. The Major’s face began to turn a whiter shade of pale and he began to stutter. I.. I.. I. I will bbbeee glad tototooo answer any qqquuestions you . you may have Colonel? Carolyne said “It’s Colonel Stomper to you Major”. The Major finished his sentence with “yes yes, Colonel Stomper”.She turned and said “This is General Bradley”. Bill walked forward and picked right up where Carolyne left off “Major, seems to me you might be better off as a lowly sergeant”. The Major started to whimper, So Bill asked if he needed a glass of water or something to calm himself”? Major Clyde Thumbscrew was sweating and shook his head up and down. Bill looked at the lieutenant over by the corner and told him to get the Major some water.

All of the scientists were snickering under their breath but kept quiet while they watched this General begin to chew this nothing of a Major out. The questions that were coming were almost too much for them to bear. They all knew what this creep had been doing with the funds that were being given to this facility and how he had been building up his little empire in the city Bill had heard the smiling pleasure in his wife’s mind and also he could hear the laughing rumbling through Kristyl and Kevin’s minds as he stood in front of this worthless toad while he drank his water. As he drank the water it spilled out of the corners of his mouth and he wiped his lower face with the sleeves of his jacket. When he was done he jabbed the glass back at the lieutenant and continued to stand while the General just looked at him. Bill asked him if he was better now. The Major shook his head and asked the General if they could go to more secure area to discuss any issues. Bill almost broke up laughing and in the minds of all the others he could hear them laughing. He looked straight at the Major and said “Major we are not here to discuss your indiscretions in private but rather all these people must hear what you have been doing to them. He turned to Kevin and said Lieutenant Danforth will you fetch those two Guards in the corridor and bring them here. Kevin said yes sir and left to get the guards. “Major, do you have any more personnel in this facility that will not be needed for Guard duty”. The Major looked at his lieutenant and asked if there were any other men that could come to level two. The Lieutenant said there was one guard at the gate up top and there was something on level one that should be brought down. The Major smiled and said yes we must bring Doolittle down and the guard at the gate should stay on duty. “Major? Is there any more on the lower levels? The Major said no those levels have been closed off and there is no personnel below this level. Bill looked at him and called him a liar while saying to Carolyne “Colonel what did we see on the level below us? Carolyne looked straight at the Major and said “we talked with two guards on that level sir”. Bill said “So major what are you trying to hide down on that level”? The Major said “you cannot bring those things up here they are not completely human and have been assigned to guard that floor from any intrusions into a failed experiment” Carolyne moved closer to the pip squeak and said “we know what is down there and what you have created and done to the creatures. Maybe we should send you down alone and let them take care of you” The Major started to whine and said you can’t do that. The emperor’s henchmen know full well what is down there and they pay close attention to our progress with these developments. Those things will be released at a certain time to help take the world into the emperor’s fold. Carolyne had been waiting for him to admit the projects ultimate goal and this was close enough.

The scientists in the lab and the two guards that just walked in with Kevin as well as the lieutenant all stood with their eyes wide open and Carolyne had heard gasps as the Major turned around in a circle and looked at all the people. He began to raise his voice and tell them all that this was all planned by the Emperor and they all had an obligation to make the plan succeed. He turned back to the General and called him a fake, “The Emperor would never send someone to destroy this project it was his pet project unbeknownst to most except himself and a few others. He was becoming desperate and began to plead with everyone in the room. In between pleading he was also being belligerent and calling everyone a traitor to the cause. He turned towards the Guards and told them to arrest these imposters. The Guards did not move and the Major started to reach for his sidearm when a loud bang rang out and the Major looked down at his chest as blood began to soak through his jacket. He slowly turned towards the lieutenant and then fell face first to the floor. Everybody in the room stood starring at the lieutenant as he walked over to the doors. He waved everyone to move away and over to the back of the lab. Everyone moved slowly while watching the lieutenant. He waved his side arm side to side while watching everyone wearily. He began to speak and tell everyone that the Major was a madman and the Emperor had sent him hear to eliminate him. As for all these other officers he did not know them but he was going to leave and no one should try to stop him. He had been in the research lab and had a file in his other hand. He told everyone to stay in this room until he was gone and if anyone came out of the doors before he was on the elevator they would be shot also. Carolyne had read this mans mind and knew that he was even more deranged than the Major had been and told everyone else to let him go. He was headed for sure destruction.

Doolittle was sitting at the elevator waiting for it to open. Something had told him that his master had been destroyed and the destroyer was on his way up to get him. He knew it was the other human that had come here with them earlier. His master had told him to destroy this human when he gave the order. Now with his master dead, there was no barrier to keep him from destroying this human. He heard the elevator car start from below and waited. When the door opened he was ready to pounce. The lieutenant was standing with his firearm in his hand when the door opened. Something jumped on him and bit into his neck and he pulled the trigger of his gun. The creature screamed but kept tearing into the human’s throat. The gun kept pumping bullets into Doolittle’s midsection as he tore the human’s throat apart. The gun stopped going off and Doolittle fell to the side. The car had blood splattered all over it as Doolittle’s last thought in life was how he had become this monster. The lieutenant had his last thought of life as his gun continued to pump lead into this creature. He starred up as the elevator door closed and it felt like freefall. The elevator car had a malfunction and fell towards the bottom at a rate of 500 miles per hour. When it hit the bottom at level five it crumpled to a flat pancake and the following explosion blew it into a thousand little bits.

Everyone in the lab heard the explosion and started to panic. The four officers spoke into their minds and calmed them. They were all asked about leaving this bunker of death and living for bringing humanity to a healing on this world. They all had begun to sing in their hearts for the saving grace of a way out of this nightmare. Once Carolyne knew their hearts and minds she pushed them all to the center of the lab and opened a portal to a place in the haven and told all of them to step into that place. Once they did she closed it and the four of them cleaned up the lab and stepped out next to the chopper. As they stood there the ground shook like an earthquake and the little Quonset building caved in on itself. Some of the mines blew and the fence began to fall around the perimeter. The two skimmers were swallowed up by a large sink hole and it closed up over them. The ground appeared to be normal after the fact. The cottonwoods shook but remained standing. Kristyl dialed her TM Gizmo and scanned the ground around the area and the mines all shifted into space and exploded. The fence disappeared and reappeared on a distant island in the past that began to sink into the ocean. The earth shifted and the tunnels below became solid, the underground springs flowed without being hampered. All of the manmade objects became part of the earth and 20,000 years in the future someone digging along a vein of metal in a mountain side found something that looked like a chair from the distant past. The four humans climbed into the chopper and lifted off towards the place called Wyoming.

The park became covered in snow and in the City, on a large plot of land, a mansion crumbled and disappeared into a large sink hole. The hole filled with water and the city had a new lake. A Coterie of Prairie dogs moved into a portion of the land around the lake and the people made a park around the whole lake and land and called it Thumbscrew Lake. YANSA and IINIWA brought the heard back into the thick Cottonwoods and found their sweet grass once again. The cottonwoods shook with relief and once more enjoyed the company of the Buffalo. NANTAN moved his coterie to the place where the building had stood and found that their old burrows were still there, He visited YANSA and IINIWA often and they all cohabitated together. The children dreamed and planted trees and the people grew gardens. The southern plains of North Dakota thrived in peace and prosperity

TWO BEARS AND A BEAVER
Sergeant Gary Hendrix was sitting next to the manikins that were placed in the chairs when anyone was left in the quarters by themselves. All of his companions had either guard duty topside or were on a lunch break from duty at the elevator. He had been dreaming of his wife and son and their new baby when the thoughts entered his mind to enter the corridor. He rose and walked to the door and looked through the window. He did not see anyone so he opened the door and stepped into the corridor. He thought one of his companions was playing a joke on him. The door closed behind him and a man materialized in front of him. He reached for his side arm but the man grabbed his arm and spoke at him in his mind. He stopped and starred and asked “Who are you”? Samuel told him everything in the blinking of an eye and Gary asked if he could really do what he said. Samuel said he could and would if he really wanted it. Gary reached his other hand down and unbuckled the duty belt and the pistol fell to the floor. “I am ready” Samuel twisted the space dial on his TM gizmo pointed it at Gary and downloaded information into him to gather his family and step into the hole that would be created for him. Samuel had a suspicion that he could make this gizmo work in space and time by setting both functions and pressing the button twice. He had Gary’s mind of destination for family and the cabin in British Colombia. He opened the portal to his family and their home and told him to step through. He also told him to gather everyone and everything he needed and he would send him to the cabin. Do not worry about your wife having her baby I will send someone that will help with that and all will be fine. Gary saw his wife and their present home and did not hesitate he stepped into their living room and began to tell his wife that they were moving. The portal closed but Samuel watched them do what was needed after Gary had explained it all. The son was the one that took control it seemed and started grabbing stuff and filling bags and what ever else might be needed. Gary’s Alice was crying but she was ready also to move. “What about the baby”? Gary told her to not worry they would be fine. In no time they were ready and Samuel opened the portal to the cabin and reached into their minds and told them to step through. They did and he closed the portal. He then opened his mind to Evelyne and Eryne and told them about the child coming. They spoke to him and said we know and will make sure the child is brought safely into this world. She has been waiting patiently in the spirit and has chosen to come and help all of us.

Samuel turned and went to the double doors. He looked into the lab and activated his dispance cloak again and entered the room. Three people looked up at the doors opening and did not see anyone come in or go out. They stood so abruptly that their chairs fell over. Everyone in the room looked up in surprise. Mary and Jonathan opened the door to the second lab and walked into the room. By this time everyone was thoroughly spooked and gravitated to the middle of the room. Samantha who had been standing close to the people that were containing the deadly virus had taken her TM Gizmo and set the space dial to send this thing into a sun that existed a billion light years from this world. When the doors opened from both places she saw Mary and Jonathan come through and she saw Samuel come through the double doors first. When all the people gravitated to the center of the room she pushed the button on the gizmo and the virus in its containers burned up in a fraction of a second on that far distant sun. She was searching the minds looking for the research and experimentation when Samuel materialized in front of the scientists. Mary was surprised that he did that and stood there stunned for a few moments. She set her gizmo to make these people disappear while watching Samuel. All the people closed even tighter together when the man appeared to them. He began to speak and asked them if they wanted to escape this deadly destruction they were working on and actually create things that would benefit humanity rather than destroy them. He waited for an answer from this group. Finally someone asked where the Colonel and his lieutenant were. Mary then turned her dispance cloak off and everyone turned to her and bunched up again. One brave soul asked how many of you are there. Everyone was looking around as if more people would just appear. Jonathan and Samantha remained cloaked as per Samuels mind talk. Mary told them that the Colonel had been killed by the scientist that was in the other lab and he then killed himself. Something to do with a new weapon of sorts and he used it on the Colonel and himself. An elderly man started to move towards the door into the lab and Mary told him that he would not like to see how that weapon worked on human flesh. The man stopped and backed up. Another person asked about the guards and Samuel told them that the Colonel had killed them all before he came back in here. He assassinated them while they were eating and went into the guard’s quarters and shot the ones remaining. The lieutenant had been the first one to die in that mess hall.

Samuel asked if there were any other people in the complex. One scientist stepped forward and said we are the only ones that live down here. There were 11 of us plus two guards on the first level living quarters. There are 5 guards living on this floor and 6 living on that level of hell below us. No one goes down there anymore and none of us have been down there since the experiments went haywire. Those things down there will eat you. All our research and development was moved up here and the elevator to that floor stopped working for us and only the Colonel could go down there. When we first started here there were 20 of us. That 3rd level was for development and experiments only until the animal things broke out and began to kill. What you see here and the cooks plus the guards up here were all that was left after the massacre The Colonel took some men down there and stopped the killing and locked the things up, he then rigged the elevator so he was the only one to be able to go down there. Whatever is still down there has been there for over 2 years now and have never come up here. Samuel counted 10 people left. All the Guards had either been kill or sent to another place. He asked his question again. “Who wants to create and invent and do things to help humanity ascend to a peaceful and prosperous world”? Two stepped forward immediately then 3 more slowly moved to the first two. The group still reluctant milled around talking to themselves quietly and then two more walked to the second group. Three people stood and starred at Samuel and a tall dark haired man spoke up and said “what are you going to do if we don’t want to leave our work here Kill us also”? Samuel shook his head for the ignorance of this question/statement. He looked at all three of them and said “no neither I nor my compatriot will do anything to you. It is your choice however; I must tell you that we are going to destroy this entire complex. The tall dark haired man looked at Samuel and Mary, he kept starring at them and then said you will be hunted down and eliminated for this you know. Samuel said “well that is a chance we are willing to take to make sure the experiments do not go any further.

All the while that Samuel had been talking with the dark haired man Samantha noticed, he had slowly been moving towards her She saw his intention, he was going to spill the virus and kill everyone in the room. Little did he know that it was no longer in the containers he intended to knock over She had read his thoughts as well as the other two. He was the most dangerous at the moment but she would let him try to do what was on his mind. It was fanatics like him that brought the world to where it was today. One of the other men who was shorter than the other two and had light brown hair was a hard core secret service agent in the direct employ of the emperor. He would be the next to take out.

Lyle Crumsinker fully intended to die for the Emperors “cause”, he had known Vinnie since they were boys growing up in the Bronx. Vinnie had given him control over the scientific community and he had created many things so Vinnie could control his jack booted patrols and more. It was an unfortunate accident in Wyoming that had gotten him relieved of the top position and Vinnie had him transferred to this hell hole. He forgave Vinnie and continued his research into creating Man beasts for the new army that would take over. His idea was to knock over the vials of the virus and kill every body in this lab. He knew that the military would send more personnel here and these experiments would continue. The things on level three had been mistakes but it had given him greater ideas and he was able to further his experiments but his research was stolen and taken to other labs. The Laser rifle had taken precedence but he was totally dedicated and his death would bring the terror of Vinnie down on the entire country. The man in front of them continued to talk saying that we were all slated to die by the emperors hands anyway. As soon as he heard that he leaped and hit the container expecting to get a full lethal dose immediately when it hit the floor. By leaping he bounced across the desk and rolled to floor. His hip had been damaged and he could not stand up now. He waited for the sweet death of the virus to consume him but it did not come and he began to wonder what had happened. The two men that stood with him both were starring down at him and walked to the group that chose to leave. He raised his head and called all of them traitors. Mary had read his mind also and had set her TM Gizmo for the level below where the dog creatures were still alive. Samuel caught her mind just as she activated the gizmo and sent this devious human to his doom. He wanted to stop her but it was too late.

Lyle heard the heavy breathing and rolled over. He could not get up and what he saw made him scream just before the pack of part human part dog creatures pounced on him. His soul/spirit came away and he was in a very dark place. He screamed and screamed and screamed and screamed…………

All the men and two women scientist stood and were ready to leave. The grumbling of the mountain could be heard growing ever louder. Samuel walked over and asked the short man with the light brown hair to wait with him and opened the portal to the place at the haven. All of them except this one that stood beside Samuel stepped through and the portal closed. The man turned and asked where they went when the lab began to shake. Jonathan and Samantha had already opened their portal and were standing beside the chopper when Samuel, Mary and the man stepped through. Samuel asked the man to walk over to a secluded place from the others.

Frank Lancer walked with this man over to a path that stepped down the hill and both of them climbed down about 10 feet before leveling out. Once at the bottom they could not see the others. Samuel stopped and turned around and said “Well Frank you want to tell me what you planned to do to us when we got away from that place. Frank looked at him with a surprise on his face. “How do you know my name”? Samuel said “that isn’t all I know about you Frank, I also know that you are a secret service agent in the employ of the Emperor. Frank jumped at him but Samuel had already read his mind and just side stepped. Frank went tumbling down the path when he hit the ground. He rolled about 20 feet further and stood up. He pulled his pistol from his boot and jacked a round into it. He started to aim at Samuel when a very hot rancid breath of air, brushed his neck. He turned around just in time to get a very large mouth full of teeth chomp down on his face. The gun fell from his hand and he began to scream. The last sound he heard was a low growl and the end came.

Kuruk had dispatched the danger and walked up the path and stood in front of Samuel. They mind spoke with each other and thanked each other. Kuruk told him that he would see him in the big meadow at the bottom of the mountain later this day. Samuel gave him a good bear hug and turned and walked back up the path and over to every one standing around. Mary had tears running down her face so he took her and hugged her tightly. I know you did that to keep us all safe. We must leave now and we will stop in a place that will give us a healing.

As the chopper climbed above the tree tops they saw the mountain beginning to settle The cave entrance had smoke boiling out and then it completely collapsed. They flew up to the top and across the lodge. It appeared to be shaking but was holding together quite well. They could see people standing outside and balancing themselves so this all appeared like an average earthquake. They banked the chopper and headed to the south and down the mountain. They could see boulders here and there being shaken loose but all in all the mountain was just settling inside. Samuel brought the chopper in to a low slow movement across the meadow and landed almost in the same spot they had landed prior to this mission. Once they landed he cut the rotor and they all just sat there for awhile looking at the beauty. Samuel got up and gathered some food in a basket and opened the hatch. He handed the basket to Jonathan and Samantha grabbed a large blanket and they both jumped out and walked towards the little lake. Samuel walked up and picked Mary up and virtually carried her to the hatch. She looked at him with tears flowing and hugged his neck. He floated out of the hatch and lightly touched the ground as he floated over to the picnic sight. He lay Mary down and sat beside her. She cried and sobbed and they all gathered close and hugged each other.

Nawhaur the beaver was sitting on his dam when the chopper flew in and landed. Something had changed in his eyes and he watched the humans get out and come towards his home. They stopped in a grassy area on a beach at the side of his pond and spread a fuzzy looking thing on the ground and put a box on in. two more humans appeared to float over to this fuzzy thing and they all were sitting around and holding one another. A voice in his mind told him to go and meet these humans He stood up on his dam and looked around to find who this was that had talked to him. The voice had sounded like a human child Nawhaur ran across his dam to the south side and then ran to the north side. He jumped in the water and swam around looking for a child that might be swimming in the pond. He finally climbed back up on the dam and was bewildered. He heard the giggling first and then right there in front of him stood a young human girl. She reached out and touched him on his brow and he heard her call his name, Nawhaur, you have a nice home and you will meet some very close friends. The girl moved to one side and Nawhaur saw two large brown bears walking across the meadow towards his home. He almost jumped into the water because they were getting closer. The girl asked him to wait. As he stood there he watched the bears walk past the metal bird and moved straight towards the humans. He was so fascinated and kept thinking that the bears were going to eat the humans. The next thing that happened made him almost fall off the dam, he slipped and grabbed a branch just in time and hopped back up and the bears were sitting with the humans. One of the humans was hugging the biggest one. The girl asked if he would like to meet his large brothers and the humans that were also his brothers and sisters. Nawhaur looked at her with Hugh eyes. If a beaver could show embarrassment Nawhaur would have shown the reddest face. He turned around to talk to the girl and she was not there, when he turned back towards the humans and the bears he saw the little girl setting with them.

Kuruk looked over at the little beaver standing on his dam and reached out his mind thought and asked him to come over and join. There was good food and good company. Nawhaur spoke back to Kuruk. “I would be the good food if I came over there right”? Nawhaur heard the giggling again and in the Bears mind he heard him laughing also. Kuruk then called him by his name and said “Nawhaur you are a funny little fellow you really should come over and join us, we have a gift for you”. “What sort of gift would that be, from such a big fellow as you”? “Perhaps you have an extra tasty limb to fatten me up before dinner”? Sikyahonaw fell to his side and rolled over laughing hysterically. All the humans were laughing and guffawing. Kuruk said “we have found some extra tasty foliage for you if you care to join us. Nawhaur asked “what kind of foliage would you have”? Kuruk told him that they had been in the deeper forest where the succulent young skunk weeds and baby ferns are located. Nawhaur perked his ears and said can you show them to me? The little girl stood up and held an armful of the foliage up so he could see it. He still was not convinced that the humans and bears had the best intentions for him. The next thing that happened was a beautiful young female beaver stepped from behind Kuruk and stood next to the little girl. Nawhaur starred at her and began to waddle off the dam. Once on the shore he waddled half way to the site and stopped. Sawlyne sensed that he was still very weary so she dropped and waddled to him. Once she reached him they began to chatter and chomp at each other. Sawlyne told him to come meet their brothers and sisters. He followed her to the fuzzy thing on the ground and the little girl came and hugged him. He began to feel a little more secure when Kuruk and Sikyahonaw both spoke to him and told how they had protected him while he built the dam and his lodge. They had chased off the other brothers that sought to do him harm. He and Sikyahonaw would live in this valley and they all would live in peace and harmony as he and Sawlyne raised their children.

Samuel, Mary, Jonathan and Samantha gathered the blanket and the basket after hugging the bears and bumping the beaver’s noses and headed for the chopper. As they climbed into the bird and prepared to lift off the animal brothers and sister all stood together and it seemed that they waved to them as the chopper climbed up and headed to the North east. Samuel said to everyone, Next stop Flaxville.

METAL PARTS AND HUMANS
The thing standing in front of them looked like a robot, the body was all metal and the face or head looked human but the eyes were glazed over. One of its hands looked human and its feet were also human. The metal cage of the body could be seen through and there were human organs with blood vessels and muscle just inside the metal structure surrounding it all. They could see the blood pumping through the veins and the organs moving just as real humans would work. The thing was looking at them with no emotion or acknowledgement that they existed as humans but rather a threat of some kind. It raised its arm and they all saw the barrels of the mini-gun wheeling into position. Michael had already set his TM Gizmo to a place where something would be sent that would not survive. He immediately activated it on this thing just before it sent solid rounds of ammo into them. It disappeared and they all stood there in amazement and horror of the entire encounter. Theresa had tried to reach into a mind but found nothing. It felt as if she was trying to read a computer or some part of a working machine. Michael had sent the thing into the gas giant of Jupiter and now gave more thought of where to set the space dial and even the time dial for that matter.

Aberdeen would never give up, never go back to that detestible woman.

He lay in his own bed, weak and pale. He was determined not to contradict or deny his heart's passions by selling the food they created for those in need or by giving in to Amanda's demands.
Not able to afford the costly private medical system funds required to keep him alive and too weak to do anything on his own now, he relyed on Connie for his every need.

He had an intuition two nights ago from a dream he had, a dream where he saw his future children, that things would turn around for the better. And so he waited patiently. He trusted intrinsically now that all the divine forces that created him were also the divine forces that would nourish and sustain him.

He was now Gods intensive care patient and it was the only thing he could do. Wait.

As she sat beside Aberdeen, Connie anxiously considered their situation.

However, Connie was a spherical thinker.

She knew that for every problem that existed in the world, there also existed a solution.

She recognised that Amanda was a force to be dealt with. She had lived with Amanda long enough and had been at the end of Amanda's wrath many times during her stint as a housekeeper. She realised that whatever Amanda wanted, Amanda got.

She also knew that the whole legal system was an unhinged, completely insane, maniacal, colossal system that had no place in society. She knew in her heart that true justice couldn't ever, wouldn't ever prevail for Aberdeen.

She had no desire to get tangled up in that black widow's web.

She had to take matters into her own hands.

She had watched the last Occupy movement on T.V a very long time ago when she was a very young girl and it gave her an idea. It was a small idea but it was planted firmly in her mind.

But first, she had to run it by Nick because she knew that by sharing, the ideas could build and multiply upon themselves to a whole new level.

That evening whilst Aberdeen tossed and turned in his sleep, restless because every breath felt like his last, she rang Nick and they talked long into the night.

[Constance]

The next two weeks saw a flurry of activity. It took quite a bit of coordination and planning but their strategy appeared sound. Whilst Connie looked after Aberdeen, Nick went into full swing with their ideas. He knew they would have to be spontaneous enough and mobile enough to stay one step ahead of whoever wished to stop them.

He enlisted in the dreaming network the aid of anyone who would be sympathetic to their cause; anyone who could travel, grassroot movements, the alternative media; anyone really daring enough to prepare to hunker down for the long term if required.

The day came when operation "Occupy Paradise" was invoked.

Tens of thousands of people from all over many different countries and across the land arrived at "Paradise" to begin the preparations. People arrived in their swarms by buses, in cars, by train, in taxis, on foot, carrying all kinds of camping equipment, kitchen equipment, musical instruments and gardening equipment. All wore happy smiles.
The only thing that worried Connie was, would Aberdeen hold out long enough to get what he needed in order to survive?
The people arriving all had this common ground together; to honour what one man had started and to honour Mother Earths lands. Lastly but most importantly, the right to occupy the lands freely.
It was going to be a celebration, the biggest ongoing celebration the world had ever seen but first, there was work to be done and preparations to be made.
Firstly, shelters and the comforts of home for the greater numbers of people who thronged to the site had to be completed in record time. Chairs and tables and temporary frames to house, feed and shelter people were erected by hundreds of master woods craftsmen who had arrived to specifically create what they knew how to do best; make the most of what the fallen trees of the vast, thickly wooded areas surrounding them and thickets of bamboo so readily provided.
It seemed as if the trees had already anticipated what was coming and had shed bark, dropped limbs and felled themselves in the right kind of numbers for the right kind of use.
The woodsmen were astonished but not surprised. Trees were often known to see entire futures and serve mankind in a way that would make people ashamed to cut them down. The shavings flew around the dining compound whence the woodsmen built from ancient tools. Everything built could be spread amongst the poor once dismantled.

Connie and Nick had come to the conclusion that food was the most important part of the preparations because a celebration was no celebration unless food was the centrepiece. It also had a spiritual quality to it because food is where people would receive the internal nourishment they needed to bring them the external fortitude they would need to make living in such a close community, a very agreeable and lasting one, if necessary.
But people were prepared to put aside their differences because they knew that this could potentially herald a new beginning for those living and sharing on earth and it was made evident by the music and the high energy and lovingness the people exuded. Hugs and laughter and love was evident everywhere.

A very large team arrived and set to work preparing the vast food kitchens and dining areas from where people could gather and eat. Using the food from the agroforestry to feed them, some of the most talented plant nutrition chefs had been inspired to prepare menu's that could provide the diversity and the nutrition that the hearts and minds of the people would need. Delicious aroma's began to waft in the air, it was a real comfort to the people present to know that they would be provided for unconditionally when it came to food. It was a carnival atmosphere and everyone was in high spirits.

Daniel looked down the corridor while they all stood inside the elevator car. He could see double doors at the end which looked to be just around 75 feet away. One side of the corridor did not have doors and was just a smooth wall all the way to the double doors. The other side had two doors or two openings. One was a single leaf door with no window and the other was a double door system with small window panels in each door. The double doors at the end of the corridor had small window panels also. Michael told everyone to set there time and space dials for the sun. Susanna said in her mind that if these things were uncontrollable at this point that they might send them to the capital building in Denver and let those tyrannical jack boots handle the situation. Michael thought about that and said lets see what we run into first. She agreed and they all moved down the corridor towards the first door. Half way to that first door they heard the elevator close and the car go up. The level indicator showed it stop at the first level. Daniel had a bad feeling and they all moved to the first door and opened it. Inside was a short corridor with two doors. They all piled into the corridor and opened the first door, it was a restroom but not very big. They opened the second door and it was a storage closet that was bigger than the restroom. Michael said “everybody in” and they all piled into the room. Each one had there TM Gizmos ready and stood around in the dark listening intently.

Lieutenant Colonel Buzz Hedron and Major Miles Whetstone had inspected the Level one holding cells and the R&D labs. The technicians and the two scientists were almost morons as far as the Colonel was concerned. The Metals on level two, that is what he called them, were much more competent to handle this operation than the humans were on level one. They worked with precision and were non emotional as they performed the construction of a metal. The kidnapped human police were such whinny babies. They had been told that they were being patriotic for the emperors’ cause by volunteering for these experiments, even though they were not volunteering, and that they would all be much better at their jobs when the transformations were complete. The elevator stopped at level two and they were ready to deactivate the metal guard with the password T8 when the door opened. Both officers stood to the sides of the door as it opened and the Colonel shouted “T8”. They both waited for a moment and then peeked around the door edges. There was no Metal guard standing there. The Colonel let out a stream of profanity and exited the car. “I am going to have that piece of metal dismantled, it has been malfunctioning lately. Both officers traipsed down the corridor and entered the first door and then went into the restroom. The team in the storage room across the corridor could hear these two men clearly speaking to one another. The Colonel was saying how they really needed to find a better breed of humans for this experiment of the Emperor’s. These policemen we are getting are coming from the lowest backgrounds and their IQ’s seem to be lower than a slug. I tell you the next one I hear complain about how they are being treated I will have him shot in front of the rest of them just to make an example, We may have to change that disable command for these metals down here, I think T8 is beginning to wear off or something. When is the next surgery scheduled I want to be here when they do it. I am to the understanding that they plan to remove the living brain on this next one and hook it up to the new improved metal. I also want to examine the skin transplants or that new material they are mixing up now. These metals have to look just like the real humans that were using before we can release them out there. The Major had just said “yes sir” the whole time and then said “what are we going to do about that deserter that is supposed to guard our little building top side”? This isn’t the first time he has gone missing. He always seems to have some morbid excuse for leaving the post unguarded. I think we need to court marshal him and then place him before a firing squad. The Colonel said “we will deal with him soon, for right now I want to see some progress down here, Oh and by the way, That facility in Tallahassee is going to have to crank up their production of the parts for the metals. Remind me later to get in touch with Major Pourage. Now shall we visit the surgical room”? The Major said “yes sir” and they both exited the restroom

Susanna spoke and said “sounds like they have a surgical room and some sort of assembly area down hear”. Theresa said “that is exactly what they have and that Colonel thought that these soulless metal things can perform better than the people up on level one”. I think this Colonel does not have a soul either”. “Well said Daniel, at least we know something about our next target, sounds like a manufacturing plant”. Michael told everyone there was going to be a change in plan for this level, we need to cloak while we are down here. When we complete this mission on this level we will go to one and become the visible officers once more. They had come out of the storage room and were standing in the short corridor when they heard the elevator go up and start back down within just a few minutes. They all turned the dispance cloaks on and became invisible and then moved into the outer corridor before the elevator door opened.

Standing next to the solid wall they watched the elevator door open. From the doors at the end of the corridor a machine or metal thing walked through the doors and headed straight up the corridor towards the elevator shaft. The mechanical movements were very noticeable as it walked they also noticed the mini gun attached as one of its arms. The thing stopped and began to raise the gun when another metal looking thing stepped out of the elevator gave some sort of silent order through its eyes. They saw a red beam like a laser light shoot out and rest on the other metal thing and it stopped and turned to walk back to the doors at the end of the corridor. The thing that had come from the elevator looked more human, it actually had human flesh covering most of the exposed areas and its movements were less mechanical. It had clothes on and a white jacket that looked like a doctor’s smock in a hospital. As they continued to watch the thing turned and re-entered the car. The next thing that happened was the first metal backed out pulling a gurney and another metal was pushing it. The first one turned and walked forward while the other one continued to push the gurney. On the Gurney was a human being. He looked liked he had been drugged and a sheet was covering most of his body.. The metals rolled the gurney to the first door before the end of the corridor and went in. Susanna mind spoke and said “we must save that poor soul before they cut him up into pieces” Everyone knew that they had to do something and Michael said “this is going to be the time to take out this lower level. We must make sure that nothing leaves from down here and all of this is gone before we move to level one”. Michael said “Susanna and I will take the first room and Daniel, you and Theresa will take that assembly area” These things are not human except for the parts they are using. They may be able to live in vacuum so I would suggest we put them somewhere that they cannot survive. The sun seems the best at this time. Everyone agreed and readied themselves for what had to be done. Michael and Susanna stopped at the doors into the surgical room and waited for Daniel and Theresa to reach the assembly lab. Once in position they started to move together.

As Michael and Susanna stood out side the doors into the surgical unit waiting for someone or something to open them The Major stood up and came towards them. They waited for him to exit and when he did they darted in. They moved to a wall and stood taking in the room and its contents. It was not a big room but had all the gear necessary for surgery. The two metals were standing over the human on the gurney and had turned him over. The Colonel was sitting in a small area off to the side and watching intently. A few minutes later the Major walked back in and sat next to the Colonel. The Colonel spoke and said “This will be very interesting they are going to remove the brain and keep the spinal cord intact and once that is accomplished they will take it all to the metal that is prepared in the assembly room and insert it all. I am to the understanding that they have created a module that all of this will fit into with a state of the art chip that will make it all adaptable. Hopefully that will complete a process to give it the mental capacity to be as close to human as possible but still have all the metal’s capacity to be almost invincible. I understand that the mini gun has been successfully incorporated so that the fingers in the left hand are now the barrels and the arm looks human but is the actual mechanism. The left leg has been made to hold the ammo and feeds up the left side and through the shoulder. A power source has been built in where the heart should be located and the brain will be the most important computer function. It will be the real thing but under our complete control. The other parts of this policeman will be utilized to form a more life like metal. I understand that these metals have completed something that is very close to skin and yet is indestructible once applied. Guess we wait and see during the test phase for that. The Metals were ready to begin cutting and had a large container of fluid setting by. They looked at the Colonel and he nodded for them to proceed.

Michael and Susanna both pointed their TM Gizmos at the Metals and sent them into the sun at the same time. On the sun a small spark flashed and it was never registered anywhere. They sent the poor soul on the table to a hospital in St George Utah. The Colonel and the Major both stood so quickly when the metals disappeared, their chairs flipped over and skittered across the floor. The Colonel said “WHAT THE” and drew his pistol. The Major did the same and both looked around wild eyed. The Major scooted to the doors leading to the corridor and peered out the little window and did not see anything. He turned back around and shrugged at the Colonel. The Colonel continued to look around wildly and heard a mini gun buzzing in the assembly lab down the corridor.

THE MOSS, A DEER AND TWO GERMANS
Vilhelm and Helga had crawled from the car and loped into the forest to pick up the scent of the human. They both looked like wolves running in a pack as they sniffed and loped following the scent. Once they entered another patch of trees and then followed the scent out to a road it stopped. They both looked around at the road. It headed southeast one way and northwest the other way. The tire tracks were old but they could tell that they had gone southeast from this point. Vilhelm mentioned that these tracks were the same tires as the tracks they had found were the old Jeep had been abandoned and look at these human shoe tracks. There were little children and two adults around this area. Whoever was driving that Jeep stopped here and picked up this person we have tracked from that forest where you first picked up the scent. Let us go north and see where this vehicle might have come from. They both loped off towards the North, after a while of running they came to the split in the road. Vilhelm looked back towards the south on the split and said “down this road is where our car is. These roads go to the north where all the men and choppers disappeared. I will go get the car and come back here. You sniff around here to see which way the Jeep came from and which way the choppers and transports went”. With that Vilhelm loped off down the road and Helga began to search around.

[Lost N Found]

Helga had found the road leading northwest that the police transport had taken and she determined that the Jeep with the two children and two adults had come from the east and north over an old abandoned logging road. She had tracked it back to a wide washed out ravine in the road and the trail ended. She had even crossed the ravine but could not find anything on the other side except some old policemen scent but she remembered that one of those chopper pilots had scouted that side of the wash so let it go at that. When she got back to the forks in the roads Vilhelm was waiting in the car. She climbed in and told him that they should follow the road to the northwest first to see if there could be any additional evidence on the missing choppers. They followed the road as far as they could go with the car and then climbed out and began loping along the rutted out road towards the northwest. When they started going up in elevation they came to the area where the transport had found one of the choppers. It had been smashed up and they found a dead policeman inside. They scouted the area and found very faint scent of military but it was so faint they could not get anything to go on from there. They left the area and continued the scent of the transport that continued to the north. The old road had turned due north and the ruts were even deeper up closer to the base of the mountain.

[Lost N Found]

As they got closer to a small hill Vilhelm smelled something towards the north east and began to follow it. The scent went up to the top of the hill and when he reached it he definitely smelled the scent of military men. He sniffed around in circles to get a better grasp on the area when Helga showed up and said she had found faint scent on the far side of the hill at the bottom of military and policemen Vilhelm said “something happened here that caused damage to a military man and over here are signs of a chopper landing. They both loped down the hill and headed straight for a large clump of brush. Once they reached it Helga sniffed around the base and when she returned said that something was in the brush that had a strong odor of Policemen and Military personnel. Vilhelm began to pull the brush aside and climb through. After breaking brush and getting into the clump about 8 feet or so he bonked into something metal The more he dug and broke brush the more he could identify a chopper. He and Helga dug enough to find a hatch and got up inside the bird. It had brush growing inside but they were able to identify that it was a Police chopper.

Hava had talked with Honovi and asked him to go to this spot. She knew that these two creatures where going to find all of this and they would also find the back door to the haven sooner or later so she sent Honovi to talk with the little green brothers that lived there and keep this creatures from getting any further. Honovi had seen them sniffing along the old road and had ran to the trees and his green brothers and told them that these creatures were coming to cause harm to the brother trees. The little green brothers had slipped from the trees and laid on the ground in wait for them. When the creatures had discovered the metal beasts inside the brush growth, they closed around the pile and waited. Once the creatures were inside one of metal beasts they caused the brush to re-grow very quickly. The two creatures inside did not see what had happened until the brush grew into the opening. Vilhelm heard the rustling and turned just in time to see the brush pushing towards them. He pulled Helga back and pushed the brush outwards so he could close the hatch. Helga began to help and pretty quick they were able to close the hatch. They both sat inside in the cockpit and watched the brush close tighter and thicker around the chopper. It cut out the light fairly quickly so Vilhelm rummaged through the storage lockers and found some flash lights. He was looking for something to start fires with thinking they could burn this stuff away from the chopper and possible get it started to get out of here but he was having no luck doing that. Helga began to sound very worried and told him to look at the windshield. He turned and starred for a moment and said “Vought isss dat”? Helga did not know but got up and moved backward. Vilhelm sat down in the pilot’s seat and tried to power up the mini-gun but it was totally dead. He stood and moved to the back with Helga. She turned and thought about re opening the hatch and bashing her way through the brush to escape but froze and grabbed Vilhelm”s sleeve. He was looking at the windshield cracking and though that is impossible. He turned when Helga grabbed him and his eyes caught what she was looking at. The hatch had opened about a centimeter and green mist was pouring in. They both backed up but the mist surrounded them and began clinging to their legs. Helga was the first to scream and she sounded like a wolf in a death grip. Vilhelm watched her feet dissolve and then her legs and it moved up rapidly until she was gone. Her wolf scream echoed in the cabin and then died into silence. Vilhelm had witnessed all of this while his own body was dissolving. The last thing he remembered was lying on a table in a lab under the Denver airport and being stuck with a needle that would transform him into the thing he was. The mist flowed back out the hatch and the interior of the chopper began to fill up with limbs and brush until it was completely packed and the windshield had been broken to bits. There was a creaking sound of metal bending and crunching and after a while the forest was quiet once more. The little green brothers moved across the ground and flowed back up the trunks of their brother trees. Honovi had watched all that happened and thanked his brothers just before he stepped through the hole into the bigger forest close to the haven. A little golden humming bird fluttered and hovered in front of him and then flew up towards the top of the trees. Hava and Luun appeared and gave Honovi a hug and took him into the spirit to visit Afra.

Two days later a Police chopper picked up a signal from a scrammer on an old logging road and dropped down to investigate it. The men in the chopper were plenty spooked about this area any way and reported the car after identifying it to the command structure. Commander Gloomy sat in his office and thought about all the men and equipment he had lost. He was totally responsible and new that his time was short. The Emperor would not give him another chance. He had gotten the only two specimens of the DNA animal experiment destroyed and he knew the Emperor was going to put him in hell. He reached into his top desk drawer and pulled out the old Army .45 cal pistol and jacked a round into it. Sergeant Andrea Fredric in the outer office heard the shot ring out. She jumped up from her chair and ran to the door. When she opened it she let out a scream and compatriots from the bullpen rushed in. The funeral was two days later.

[Constance]

Connie had wondered if she had bitten off more than she could chew with the whole "Occupy Paradise" idea but what she saw when the people arrived and coordinated themselves the way they did in the forest with such honour and respect - gave her great and complete reassurance.
As she wandered around, meeting and greeting everyone, she noticed that a group of passionate permies had heaped compost in huge piles everywhere.

She was very curious as to what they were doing. It seemed such an odd thing to do. They explained that long copper winding water pipes lay underneath the piles. They were funnelling water through these pipes because the compost pile centres were extremely hot. The heated water would provide hot showers for everyone. It was extremely impressive to watch person after person take a shower. Neither the water nor the heat seemed ever seemed to run out!

MELTING METALS AND SAVING HUMANS
Theresa and Daniel had waited for the doors to open just as Michael and Susanna did. They saw the Major come out of the surgical room and Michael and Susanna rush in. When the Major came out into the corridor something stirred in the assembly lab. Daniel was looking through the window glass and grabbed Theresa quickly and moved her to the side as the doors swung open and one of the metals came out and walked towards the elevator shaft. They took the opportunity to rush into the room then and as soon as they got in the doors shut again. They both moved to an area that would be out of the way and just in time because the metal came back through the door and walked to an area towards the back of the room. Daniel noticed that where this thing went there was another standing idly in a slot on the wall. The one that came back in walked to another slot and stepped in. A light turned on from above the slot and the metal stood perfectly still. These slots appeared to be recharging cells for these things. They both surveyed the room and saw in the middle two tables. One had something that looked like a cage or something and the other had a metal laying on it. The metal was laying on its front with the back completely open. At the base of the spine area was a small unit that looked like the end of a spine could be attached to it. The unit was blinking with a small red light. It looked as if the structural cage of the head, the back of the neck area and the entire back of the body structure had been removed. As they looked closer they could see the other half of the cage sitting on the other table. Daniel wanted to get a closer look so he floated over to the tables and inspected the frame work of the metal. He could see where the two parts would be snapped together when ever something was placed inside. What he did notice very distinctly was the harness structure in the head cage for a brain that looked identical to fit a human brain into and the harness structure for a human spine to fit into. At the bottom he examined the unit connected to the harness and where the end of a human backbone could fit into. The unit looked as if it had a battery that was powering it. He backed away and went back to Theresa and mind talked with her about what he saw up close. When she heard what he had told her she said “we must send this thing away”. Daniel agreed and they both set their TM Gizmos the same as Michael and Susanna had. Theresa pointed at the thing on the table and said she would sweep the tables if he would take the things out in the slots. Daniel pointed at one and she began to press her button. As soon as she sent the things on the table away the two metals in the slots moved very quickly. Daniel got one off and the other had brought the mini gun up firing. It was strafing the floor as it came up. Daniel grabbed Theresa and pulled her down behind a desk of some sort as the bullets tore the tables apart. The metal was moving the gun randomly around the room. The walls lit up with small explosions as the wiring in them began to heat and melt. The lights in the ceiling started to burst as the bullets smacked into them. Daniel could not get up to target this thing from behind the desk and was deathly afraid that stray bullets would catch them both. The lab doors were next to be ripped apart and both became shredded metal and fell from their hinges. The thing continued to spray bullets all around the room and Daniel felt something tear into his right leg. He braved the spray and peeked over the desk long enough to send the mayhem into the sun.

The assembly lab became very quiet for a few minutes. Theresa looked at Daniel and saw blood oozing from a wound in his right thigh. He was sitting up and trying to stop the bleeding when two madmen rushed into the lab. One was screaming something and the other was starring around, looking for answers. He saw blood running under the desk that Theresa and Daniel were behind and started to move that way. He looked over the desk and became befuddled. All he could see was blood coming from mid air. He stuck his gun out and disappeared immediately. The other madman was still kicking at bits and pieces of furniture and looking around wildly. He held his pistol up and started shooting randomly just like the metal had done when it disappeared from his hand. He starred in amazement at his hand and turned around in a circle. “Who or what are you and at least show yourself so I can see for myself. Michael de cloaked by the destroyed doors. The Colonel turned and stopped when he saw him. “What the” he said, is a General doing here and destroying this lab”? Michael told him that he was under suspicion of being a traitor to the emperor and “I have been sent to eliminate you and the major and clean up this place because the Emperor suspects that you Colonel are selling these secrets to the underground”. The Colonel became incensed and spittle was flying from his mouth as he said “THAT IS PURE NONSENCE I WOULD DO NO SUCH THING” Michael looked at him with pity and told him that he could talk with the Emperor himself if he wanted to but you must know that he is the one that wants you dead and he might just kill you himself if he sees you. The Colonel thought about that for a minute and then Said “I demand to see him”. Michael had read this mans mind and knew that he had another weapon in a concealed holster on his back waste band. He pointed the TM Gizmo at him and said your wish is coming true right now, and he sent the Colonel straight to the Emperors office in the white house at Denver and at the same time he placed the weapon into his hand.

It seemed that not only were humans the only ones attracted to the festivities of "Occupy Paradise". Deers and other small creatures could be seen gathered near the waters edge where the large natural ampitheatres nestled into the sides of the hill. It was a curious spectacle. The animals appeared as if in a trance.

Even a lion was purportedly spotted by a hillside nearby but it was all put down to a childs rather vivid imagination. That child had insisted it had seen a very golden lion but his mother put the child to bed, wondering if it was all the stories told by the fireside that had spurned his latest imaginings.

Imaginations were running rather high and rampant with all the creativity that flowed and cascaded all around them.
It seemed that by day there was an endless stream of live music provided by various indigenous and folk and cultural tribes; Ainu music, Moroccan music, Indigenous Australian music, Tibetan chanting, African music, Maori music, Aberzaijani music, Rai music, Native American music, Louisiana Zydeco music, Inuit throat singing, Calypso music, Andean music, Soukous music, Andalusian music, Garifuna music, Carnatic music, Baul music, Breton music, Afghan ragas, Hindustani music, Tuvan throat singing, Berber music, Malouf music. The list went on and on and kept on growing as more musicians arrived. It was becoming a celebration as musical as it was food oriented.
The people danced and stomped and sang and celebrated with such spontanety, such open hearts and minds, such joyousness and abandonment, it all felt as if it would never end.
At night, there was singing and chanting for all around the firepits. The campfires burned brightly as the people sang and dreamed in to being, freedom of the lands for all people.

Aberdeen lay in his bed listening to the faint sounds of rhythmically beating drums and was touched by the sounds of crowds cheering and singing intermittently. Whilst he couldn't participate as he lay alone, he felt buoyed by the promise of the land being saved for its original intent and his heart for the first time in two weeks felt at ease.
Someone had placed a vase of roses by his bed whilst he slept and now the heady scent of the roses filled the entire room, reminding Aberdeen of how good it was to be alive. A faint smile flitted across his face as he sank into a restful sleep.

As Connie prepared Aberdeens evening tonic before bed, Connie's only concern now was how Amanda would react once she found out that Aberdeen was not going to comply with her plans. She knew Amanda was like a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment and she didn't want to be around when it went off.

Moving quietly into the bedroom they so lovingly shared and carefully placing the tonic on his side of the bedstand, she glanced at Aberdeen and noticed how peacefully he was sleeping. In a half-sleep, he became aware of her presence and uttered the words "If you live to be a hundred, I want to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you", he murmured.
Connie's eyes filled with tears and one lonely drop fell down upon her cheek. She lovingly bent down and swiftly kissed his sallow cheek.
"You and I will be together a long time my love" she whispered into his ear and quickly left the room, sobs caught in her throat. She silently choked back those sobs. She never wanted Aberdeen to hear her crying over him whilst he was so unwell.

[Constance]

The day of the court hearing had arrived and Amanda was dressed in the tightest sheerest black dress she owned.

It left little to the imagination and this was the intention.

Her bronzed skin powdered and rouged perfectly, her blond frosty hair pulled back in a chignon that could only be described as painfully tight. She was ready.

Amanda took one last look in the courts bathroom mirrors at herself and was pleased with what she saw.

As she strutted into the courtroom like a peacock preparing to mate, perfect diamond earrings glinting and reflecting mirrors off the harsh courtroom walls, the judge swore silently.

That putrid woman and her ghastly perfume had arrived.

Her noxious trademark perfume preceded her.

It made him feel ill on all levels of his wretched being to see her but he knew that he was as good as dead if his wife ever found out about his little affair with Amanda. And here she was approaching the bench! The temerity of the woman!!

It was more than he could bear and his forehead was shiny with beads of sweat. She said nothing but smirked and winked boldly. The judge gave her a withering look but he knew he had been defeated by her mere presence and limply banged the gavel to call order to the court. Flashes were seen everywhere as the paparazzi snapped pictures and fawned over Amanda. The gallery was in an uproar.

With an exaggerated swing of her hips, she postured, turned a pose for the gallery audience and lasciviously sauntered back to the gallery like a model who had conquered the runway.

The bailiff stood in his usual corner of the courtroom. He was aroused by the mere sight of that wildcat Amanda.
That was one great session she had given him in the backseat of her car and there was the promise of more.

It was a good ten minutes into the court proceedings when it was realised that Aberdeen or any representative for Aberdeen was not going to show.

Amanda's face looked like stone. She had counted on Aberdeen showing.

It was three weeks into "Occupy Paradise" when Amanda finally caught wind of what was going on.

Daniel had bled out considerably and was becoming quite weak. Theresa had managed to stop the flow of his vital fluid but all she could do now was hold him as his breathing became shallower. Michael and Susanna had cleaned up the metals and parts and sent it all to the sun. They knew the mission was not over but with Daniel slipping away fast they had to come up with another plan and quickly. Michael was ready to open a portal to the garden and get him there for emergency treatment. Theresa was in his mind and keeping him awake when Evelyne and Eryne popped into view in front of them. Both girls walked to Daniel and motioned for all of them to gather. Evelyne and Eryne both placed their hands on Daniel and his wound. Daniel had lost consciousness in the physical but he was with the all in the spirit. They all grabbed each others hand and the light moved in the circle and shot into Evelyne and Eryne. They all became a solid tube of light and moved into the universe into one. The one was there for eternity. The Divine Creator gathered the light and total connection was/is/always. The tube of light came back and entered the circle and faded. Each single entity flowed back and stood up. Hava/Luun took the pain and released it back into the universe. Time reversed and the blood flowed backwards into the opening in Daniels leg. His strength grew back and his face became a natural healthy color once more. The wound closed and his leg was whole. In all their minds Daniel laughed and asked what had happened that they all had to be standing over him, He had dispatched the metal into the sun had he not? Hava/Luun stood and turned sideways and disappeared. Daniel stood up and surveyed the lab and remembered the metal spraying everything with the mini-gun but thought no more beyond that at the moment. He said “is it time to go to the level above and start setting the humans free”? Every one looked at each other and smiled and said we have to make sure this level is clean and then we go up.

Vinnie was sitting in his luxurious office with two dogs and three secret service men. He had been reading about the progress of Gerou and some Intel about Colonel Hedron being a traitor to his cause. This Intel had just come in not more than 1 hour ago. The project in Georgia had been a pet of his and now this Colonel was trying to destroy it. He was contemplating sending an armed guard or better yet one of his best assassins down there to take this traitor out when all of a sudden the man appeared in his office. He starred at the man who seemed to be half crazed. The man had a pistol in his hand and raised it towards him. Vinnie had his own weapon and pulled it out. The army officer pulled his trigger first and the bullet hit Vinnie in the arm. He spun around and two of the secret service men tackled the officer. The dogs came up to him and growled with barred teeth Vinnie told his men to get the officer up. They did so and Vinnie walked over to face him. His arm had blood running down it but his angst was such that nothing mattered but this man that had dared to kill him in his own office. He should have had the man taken below so he could question him but the anger overtook him. He walked up and stuck his gun to the man’s ear and pulled the trigger. The dogs sniffed the man after he was on the floor but backed away. Vinnie told his men to get the mess cleaned up while he left to get medical attention.

The elevator stopped at level one and everyone was un-cloaked. Susanna was in front when the door opened. There were no guards but they could see men walking in and out of rooms at the end of the corridors. They walked down the corridor like they owned it and stopped at the first door. Daniel walked in and found the restrooms. He came back out and told everybody so. The nest door was on the opposite side of the corridor and actually had a sign that said supplies on it. Susanna opened it anyway and sure enough that is what it was. This corridor had 5 doors and the double at the end of the corridor. The next door opened into a small room with one door on the interior of the room. It had a desk and when Theresa opened the inner door it was a restroom. They all were standing in the corridor when a lieutenant walked up and saluted. He asked What a General and his staff might be doing in this facility, Michael walked up to him and whispered to him. “Lieutenant, we are here on official business, we are inspecting this facility per the Emperor himself. He will be arriving here in a few days and we are the front runners to make sure everything is in order for him” “Now, if you will be so kind as to show us the holding facility first and then we want to see the R&D lab and the actual development center. Do you understand”? The lieutenant had a surprised look on his face and said “yes sir” Michael then said “by the way where is your commanding officer”? The lieutenant told him that the Colonel would be on level two this afternoon and would be back up here to watch the tech’s perform some minor surgical operations on some of the prisoners. “And just what is it that you and your lab rats do lieutenant”? The lieutenant told him that they perform chemical lobotomies on the prisoners to prepare them for the greater surgery that the metals do down below. We also pump chemicals into the organs to set them up for mechanical compatibility. We also experiment on skin grafts and have come up with some new material that simulates skin rather nicely The Colonel thinks that those things down below have invented it but it was our team up here that did all the work. One of our maid jobs is to assemble robotic parts that we get from the plant in Florida. “Very good lieutenant, now show us the holding cells” “yes sir” and with that he turned on his heels and took them to the nest door. It was locked and the lieutenant had to push a button on the wall to get someone inside to open it.

The door opened and a part metal part human stood to the side holding the door. The lieutenant nodded to the thing and said “officer wince these men are here to inspect the prisoners if you will show them the cells I must go to complete an experiment I started earlier. He turned and told the General that when they had completed their inspection to come to the R&D room just down the corridor, you can’t miss it the label is quite clear, now if you will excuse me I must go. Michael excused him and turned towards officer Wince. “Officer Wince you may proceed with the inspection”..

Lieutenant Horris Peabody entered the R&D lab and went straight to his little office near the back. He did not feel right about these top brass officers coming here. He usually knew who was coming to visit well ahead of time and this just seemed odd to him. He buzzed the lower floor to talk with Colonel Hedron but received no answer. He tried Major Whetstone and still got no answer. Next he tried the guard post above and all he got was static. He could not communicate with the metals. He thought he would take the elevator to the 2nd level and talk directly with the Colonel. The biggest problem with that idea was he did not know the pass word to keep the metals from blasting him to shreds. He mulled this over and thought something is damn strange. He reached into his desk and pulled his own pistol out and dropped the magazine to make sure it was full and re- mounted it and jacked a round into the chamber then stuck it into the pocket of the lab coat. He walked out of the office and over to Brad shimmer the other scientist. Speaking softly he said “Brad, something is happening down here that seems real funny to me. I am very suspicious. There are high ranking officers inspecting the prisoners holding cells at this moment and they came unannounced. I can’t reach the Colonel or the Major and all I get from the Guard post is static. I suggest you arm yourself and get ready to make it out of here when we can.

Amanda's fury was spent but the carnage that lay around her was evident everywhere.

In a drunken fury, she had smashed furniture and crockery, thrown food at walls and ceilings, ripped and shredded clothing and wet puddles seeped deeply into the carpet where her tiny little dog had piddled itself in abject fear.

Dull and groggy from the alcohol, she realised that her phone was ringing. She roused herself from the floor she was sprawled upon and stumbled to the middle of the wreckage she called her apartment to answer it.

According to the "Bore", chief of police Rolin Wakely, a warrant for Aberdeen's arrest for being in contempt of court was now complete and did she want to be there when it happened?

The drive was long and tedious for Amanda, especially with that halfwit Wakely. She cunningly avoided having to speak to him or to put anything more out for him by feigning a sore throat. Wakely could smell the alcohol on Amanda when she had opened the door to let him into her apartment and had insisted he drive.
With one hand to her forehead and the other over her throat, she pretended to feel very ill each time Rolin glanced her way. Besides, she did feel rather hungover and hungry.

By the time the two had arrived late in the day, celebrations were in full swing at "Occupy Paradise". There were throngs of people everywhere and it was such a carnival atmosphere that Rolin totally forgot where he was for a moment.
As he pushed his way through the masses of people dancing and singing, the energy and the vibe of the place was so magical, the more he moved through the crowds, the more he felt all his worries and cares begin to vanish. As he attempted to make his way to the house, a beautiful native Hawaiian woman placed a welcoming Lei around his neck.

He felt so bedazzled by this wonderful honour and was so disarmed by her natural beauty that he spontaneously bestowed a kiss upon her lips. She kissed him passionately in return and somehow, he managed to lose his shirt as they fumblingly made their way towards a natural pond.
A brief pause for air and one turn of his head revealed many naked revellers either sunning themselves on rocks or swimming naked in the pond and in his utter astonishment, he tripped.
It was however, an immediate reality check for Rolin and shaken out of his reverie, he wrenched himself free from the woman and doggedly and determinedly ran back towards the house.
He didn't have time to find his shirt now but he didn't care, he was here to arrest Aberdeen and arrest him he would! He frantically looked around for Amanda but she was long separated from him.
No one present at "Occupy Paradise" made it easy for him to get there. They had sensed the presence of someone who was not energetically connected with the divine moment and they had intuitively closed ranks on him.

Amanda felt her wrath rising again as people stepped on her toes and jostled her. She was being carried away by a sea of shining faces towards the amphitheatre where Nahko bear and the medicine people were playing.
She tried to yell out to that idiot Wakely but her voice was drowned out by the singing and clapping and stomping of feet. The drums beat wildly and people were cheering and clapping and whistling as they got closer.

When Peabody came over and told him to arm himself, Brad already carried his weapon under his lab coat, neither Peabody nor anyone else in this facility new that he worked for the underground patriots. He had worked for them since he first met Lieutenant Daniel Ripper. He had heard of this bunker and its insidious experiments and his expertise had been in Robotics so when an anonymous advertisement had shown up for someone with his background he applied and was immediately hired and sent to the place. Once down here he was put to work assembling parts for hands, arms, legs and feet for robotic machines to be placed in major manufacturing plants. He soon discovered the true purpose of assembling these parts and began leaking information out as was possible. He stood up and made his way to a small restroom in the lab. Once in he pulled his weapon and made sure it was ready. Replacing it back into its concealed holster he went back to his work station.

Officer Wince had brought the General and his entourage down a short corridor and entered another double door system and walked over to a heavy bar door system. When they were all standing there waiting the half metal half human looked into an eye scanner and the bar doors began to open. They all walked through and the bar doors closed. The room was a very large area almost like a warehouse. The cages were lined in rows and stacked on each other. They looked like animal cages in a lab area. Most of them were 4’x 8’ and the room buzzed with human suffering. There were sounds of people in pain and people crying. Some were screaming foul language and some were just talking to themselves. The cacophony was distracting and quite upsetting. All of the prisoners had been striped of clothing and the air conditioning was next to freezing. Most of the prisoners were moving back and forth as best as they could to keep warm. Officer Wince began walking the cages and rattling a baton on the bars all the while telling everybody to shut up. Some would shut up as Wince passed but would start up again as soon as he passed. The conditions were completely horrible and Michael, Susanna, Theresa and Daniel could feel the mass confusion and pain in the prisoners. Theresa spoke in their minds and said this is despicable and we must free these people now. Michael agreed but said “we must bring clothes to these people before we move them from here”. Susanna said “I know where the clothes are located for them” She relayed the image to the party and everyone set their TM Gizmos and began to retrieve and materialize the clothes. Officer Wince saw the clothes materializing and began walking around to each cage and banging his baton on the bars. He was speaking loudly and telling the prisoners to stop what they were doing. All the prisoners were ignoring him and dressing themselves. Officer Wince moved to an intercom station on the wall and started to buzz for assistance. Just before his finger reached the button he disappeared. He reappeared in a cell at the detention facility in Mississippi with no clothes on his body. The lower half of him was all metal and the only human part was from the upper chest to his head. He looked out of the cell and started to yell. The Guards that showed up took one look and pulled their weapons and began to unload on this nightmare that was in one of their cells

[Lost N Found]

As all of the humans in the cells dressed themselves, Theresa began to speak into their minds and told them what they would have to do to save themselves. All of them began to acknowledge and understand. Once this was accomplished the cell doors began to unlock and the humans began to assemble in the bigger open space. Michael opened a portal to the prison on the surface and stood in the middle of those cells. Susanna was with him and they both spoke into the prisoners’ minds and told them what was going to happen. All of them understood and waited. Michael and Susanna stepped back into the bunker prison and gathered Theresa and Daniel. All the humans were standing around in both prisons waiting for the happening. The party exited the holding cells and made all the locks disappear. They walked down the corridor and entered the R&D Lab.

Lieutenant Peabody was standing next to a technician when the lab doors opened. All of the people in the lab stopped what they were doing and turned to look at who was entering their work spaces. Michael walked in first and saw the Lieutenant. He spoke and said, “Lieutenant Peabody, we have found you’re holding cells to be inadequate and are going to shut them down for now”. “That also includes the rest of this facility until it can be brought up to standards”. Peabody stepped away from the tech and pulled his weapon from his lab coat. “You are imposters and I will see that you are executed for this intrusion into the very important work we do here”. A very loud bang surprised everybody and they all turned towards the source. Brad was standing next to his station with a smoking gun in his hand. The Lieutenant had jerked and dropped his weapon as he turned and looked at Brad while falling to the floor. Brad told the technicians to set down and listen. They all sat down while starring at him. Brad looked at the party and said “I am not sure who you people are but you seem to be on the good side. If I am wrong then I guess I will be dead but I can tell you this I will not leave this place before it is destroyed”. Theresa read Brads mind and new that he was part of the underground, she read the truth in his mind and spoke back to him and told all that they were here to do. Daniel mind spoke and said he knew Brad when he had been stationed here. Bradlooked surprised but lowered his gun and put it back into its holster He then spoke openly and said “What can I do to help”?

[Lost N Found]

The Tech’s minds were read and discovered that they all wanted to escape this hell hole. They were transferred to the holding cells top side to join the policemen in their escape. All the research in the lab was transferred to a place that burned it up. Brad had showed where all of the spare parts and all of the research were located. He took them to the lab at the end of the corridor and showed them the chemicals and all the other bad things. All of it was sent away and the rooms became empty. Daniel and Theresa opened the portal to the Suburban and stepped out next to it. Brad had went with them and said he could help them at the bunker in Florida if they were willing to let him tag along. Daniel then told him who he was. Brad became very surprised and said “I had a feeling that we had met somewhere before but could not put my finger on it”. “How is it that I can’t recognize you in the physical sense”? Daniel told him that it was a story for later “right now we must get out of here”. Brad asked how they were going to get out of there and Susanna opened the back door of the suburban. Brad jumped back and starred into the back seat but could not see the rest of the truck. Susanna said Just get in and we’ll explain as we drive out and to our rendezvous. They all piled in and headed out.

Michael and Susanna opened portals for all the prisoners and they all stepped through and filled the choppers. The underground bunker caved in on itself and the building with the elevator caved in and everything crumbled. The prison cells on the surface caved in and crumbled. There were explosions and fires on the base and the emergency services where called out. Level one and two of the underground bunker became a solid mass of concrete and earth. Michael and Susanna had opened the portal to their chopper and climbed aboard. Michael was lifting the bird when he saw the other birds starting to lift. As they got higher he and Susanna started seeing the other choppers firing the mini guns at different buildings on the base. It resembled a fire fight in one of the old wars. They flew up and over to the trees and talked to Daniel and Theresa as they drove the suburban out of the trees and hit the interstate. They had hovered to make sure no one was coming out and witnessed the base on massive fire. This was going to be one big story for propaganda news sources. Two hours later Michael dropped down an landed in a small clearing and Daniel, Theresa and Brad walked out of a clump of trees and over to the chopper and climbed aboard. The chopper lifted off and headed towards Tallahassee Florida..

The more Rolin pushed and shoved and resisted against the people gathered around him, the closer the people pressed against him. There seemed to be such a warmth and lovingness about the people that threatened to engulf him in their attempts to gently and energetically connect with him. But Rolin was confused because he had never experienced such a united front of love and he fought hard against it. His heart was pounding in his ears and he felt all the blood rushing to his head in his wild attempts to break free of the crowd.

A voice calmly said to him, "Whatever you resist persists."

Rolin immediately felt fear grip him. His skin prickled all the way up his back because he knew it wasn't his own thought. It felt as if it came from somewhere outside his head but it wasn't said in words, the voice only communicated silently.
He had heard about all those mind control experiments in underground bunkers, maybe this was a cult trying to take over his mind!
He wasn't sure what the hell was going on but as soon as he had arrested Aberdeen he was getting out of there, Amanda or no Amanda.
For a split second, the crowd parted and Nick Green appeared. The crowd closed ranks again and Rolin was almost cheek-to-cheek with Nick.
With no warning, Nick embraced Rolin and Rolin began to lose touch with all his bodily senses and everything appeared to be coming from a distance, a bit like when you look down a telescope the wrong way.
He began to see visions. They were so clear and so colourful and panoramic. He had taken partaken in Ayahuasca ceremonies before but this was something else. There was so much clarity and the presence of unconditional love within this experience.
It was if he was inside a holographic multiverse where he could reach out and touch every lifetime he had ever experienced because they were all within the divine present, all around him and all within reach.
All his lives were somehow simultaneously unfolding like a mandelbrot set. He was able to watch as each day in each lifetime unfolded and went on forever. It was a kaleidescope of the One continuous eternal life, playing out in parallel universes with the many other beings who were he!
"So these are what people called past lives." He said to himself as he watched countless lives playing out simultaneously. It was a dizzying ride.
Each lifetime was like a cell in a body. There were so many of these cells. He could see the direct correlation between all these cells in the body and all the lifetimes he had ever lived. Each had its individual role to play and each served the whole body. "Cells interact with each other through the process of osmosis," He thought to himself and Rolin saw how this was also true for how each lifetime had left its imprint on the next via the soul. Every cell had its own unique story to tell and oh boy, could it tell a story!
Everything he had ever learned about life, every emotion he had ever felt were all wrapped up in these individual stories that were really just the One story.
He felt the microcosm and the macrocosm playing through him. He was forever receiving divine thoughts from the cosmos through the breath. The heartbeat and the breath were intertwined in a delicious infinite dance that carries intuitions and inspirations to the superhighway of the nervous system which sends signals to the brain as many thoughts.
He was so engaged in what he saw that he hadn't noticed the crowd dispersing.

BURNING ROCKS AND POLITICIANS
Lionhawk and Arie came over the bank and dropped down to where everyone was waiting. Lionhawk told them that this would be the way in for everyone. Inside about 100 feet or so is two large metal doors that open and close for vehicles. There is a human door just this side of the vehicle doors and there is a air vent above it. I think I can get into it and hopefully to the inside corridor that will let me opened the door from the inside. We will have to be very careful when we get inside the tunnel until we get inside of the corridor. Those vehicle sorties could happen too often and we have to coordinate the movements. I suggest we keep watch here until we get a good feel for our entry. They all agreed. Arie told them in the mind speak that he and Chephirah could go up to the mountain that opens and check it out for movement and when they were ready to enter here they could mind speak to them. Lionhawk spoke back in the mind and told him and Chephirah that was a good plan and they would watch for a while to get the timing set. The two lions padded off up the hill side and all the humans took turns lying at the top of the bank watching and timing.

Mark was lying on the bank when he heard the vehicles coming through the trees. As they came out of the trees and entered the clearing he could see the darkness surrounding the vehicles and he saw something else that made his blood freeze. One of the vehicles was pulling a caged trailer and it was full of humans. There were young children and women and young men. He did not see any older people. He knew in his heart that these people were destined to be converted to something else or something even worse. It was only about 2 hours after these vehicles had come out of the mountain. He scooted back down and told them all what he saw. They had made a resting place and Lionhawk, Shadowself and Jim had hiked back to the chopper and fetched small day packs for them all. They had also loaded the packs with foods extra gear for hunkering down. Jim shimmied up the hill and took his turn timing the coming and goings of these black creatures.

[Lost N Found]

Dusk was setting in rapidly when Arie and Chephirah walked into their camp and sat back on their haunches. Arie told them that the mountain had moved only once and two humans had left. Maria opened a portal to the Garden and asked them to go through and get some food. Arie and Chephirah both stepped through and the portal closed. They had taken turns stepping into the garden and eating some wonderful food. Lionhawk and Shadowself had met some great folks and were amazed at the garden and the surrounding haven. Jim had seen two more sorties of the creatures from the mountain and they seemed to be every two hours on schedule. Mark had been the only one to see the caged trailer so the sorties did not pick up humans every time they went out.
It was dark when they had seen the last sortie come back and enter the mountain. They had all gotten some food and Arie and Chephirah had come back It was time to move and they all were ready to go. The two lions were the only ones that were not cloaked so they would wait until the door had been opened and they could enter. The party moved in and stood by the door while Lionhawk levitated himself up to the open grill of the air vent. He saw that the grill had thumb toggles that were operated from both sides so he twisted them and removed the grill. He dropped it to Shadowself below and climbed into the duct and scooted along until he found a grill in the ceiling into the corridor below. He noticed the alarm system on the wall below. The grill had the same toggles as the exterior one had so he twisted them and pulled the grill up into the vent duct. He heard foot steps coming down the corridor and held still as he saw the guard walk under him towards the exterior door. The guard walked to the door and rattled the latch to make sure it was locked. He turned and walked back the way he had come from. Lionhawk watch as he walked by and noticed that this man did not have the dark aura around his being. He dropped from the ceiling and moved to the security system, removed the cover and disconnected a few wires. He then walked to the door and pushed the panic bar and the door opened.

Nick sped to Aberdeen and covered him with the dispance cloak that Bill had given to him. He didn't know whether Rolin's living life review had given him the shift in consciousness he needed and he wasn't taking any chances.
"What's this?" Said Aberdeen in a quavering, tremulous voice. The cloak seemed very heavy over his frail body.

"No time to explain Aberdeen," said Nick very quietly. "Just stay very still, very quiet and I will explain afterwards."

Amanda had finally managed to extricate herself from the crowds and was attempting to make her way back to the house.
However, in a deliberate attempt to stomp on someone's toes, she had missed and one of her high-heel shoes had sunk into the heavy clay soil and upon lift off, snapped and broken off.

She now cursed loudly as she hobbled lopsidedly through the forest. It was a somewhat hot day and being hung over, she was beginning to get hot and dehydrated. Enraged by what she thought in her own perverted mind as a deliberate delay tactic on behalf of the crowd, she spent her whole time in her head, planning her revenge for anyone connected with this "Occupy Paradise."
Somehow, the forests paths, the crowds and a really bad internal compass had all conspired against her.
The paths and the crowds had taken her much further away from the house than she initially thought. She faced a long steep climb to get back to the other side where the house was situated but in her delirious maddened state, she was heading the wrong way. The forest was listening and remained very silent indeed.

Connie made her way down into the cool glades of the forest where she tried to gather her thoughts on what they could do for Aberdeen. The trees were kindly to her and they whispered and rustled, "Look out, harm is coming your way," but she was so intimately engrossed in her own contemplations that she didn't hear that whisper.
She stooped to pick a flower...

When the man door opened everybody was waiting by the wall to the right of the door. Arie and Chephirah padded into the tunnel and made it to the door just as everyone entered. They all moved up the corridor to another door which turned out to be a storage room and seemed big enough to hold them. Lionhawk made sure the exterior man door was shut securely and rewired the security alarm and replaced the panel. As they all stood in the storage room they could see the lion’s eyes putting out a light shade of blue. Lionhawk pulled his sword up enough to see the blue tinge emanating from it. Lionhawk cracked the door and told everyone to stay in the room until he came back. He went out and Arie did also. Both of them hugged the wall of the corridor as they proceeded forward. The walls were smooth with no doors other than the first one. The corridor seemed to go in a circle from where they had entered and soon enough they came to a door with a small window. Lionhawk peeked in and saw the Hugh vehicle bay. He saw three more doors like the one he was looking through and then noticed the vehicles. He knew he would have to get inside at some point but wanted to continue the search in the corridor first.

[Lost N Found]

Lionhawk could see about 20 feet in front of him before the curve of the corridor blocked the view. Hearing was a different matter and Arie could hear far better than he could. As they proceeded they came to what might be the center of the circle around the vehicle bay. There was a double door system into the vehicle bay and directly across the corridor was a double door system. Lionhawk peeked through the little windows on the doors away from the vehicle bay and saw another long corridor. At the end he could see doors for an elevator. He could see four doors in the walls of the corridor but no more. He turned and saw Aries’ Eyes blazing with blue and new that something was approaching from somewhere. He quickly scooted over to the vehicle bay doors and saw to armored trucks pulling in. This was a time to retreat but which way to go he was not quite sure

[Lost N Found]

Arie started to pad up the corridor away from where they had come so Lionhawk followed and about 60 feet from those double doors there was a door in the wall with no window. Arie stood in front of it and Lionhawk quickly moved to open it. He could hear voices in the corridor and new they had to get in this door. It was locked when he tried to turn the handle. Aries eyes began to blaze light from his being and Lionhawk turned just in time to see two black figures halt and then start to run at them. Arie ran at them and jumped one while Lionhawk pulled his sword and moved towards the other one as Arie had done. Lionhawk had just enough time to see Arie turn into a complete blaze of blue light as he jumped at the first black thing. Lionhawk then swung his sword which was blazing blue also and struck the second figure. When the sword made contact the thing disappeared in blue blaze of sparks. Arie had pushed the other one to the floor and bit him on the neck. As soon as that happened the thing disappeared just like Lionhawk’s adversary had. They both turned and ran up the corridor until they came to another door that opened into the vehicle bay. This door was not locked so they slowly opened it and went through. They ducked behind a row of scrammers that were fairly new cars and waited. Aries’ eyes had faded somewhat and Lionhawk’s sword was dull with the blue tint. They waited and peeked up and didn’t see any more humans or the black things and slowly began examining the cars and the armored vehicles. The bay was big enough to park at least 100 cars and at least 4 of the armored vehicles. At present there were only around 30 cars and two armored vehicles. That meant that two more were out and could come back anytime. Lionhawk looked across the bay and saw the door on the other side so he touched Arie in the mind and they both moved quickly across the large bay to the door and got back into the corridor. The storage door was just around the curve and when they reached it they again heard voices and footsteps. They ducked into the room and spoke to everyone to be very quiet.

[Lost N Found]

As the footsteps and voices became quieter and finally disappeared, Lionhawk slowly opened the storage room door and viewed the corridor. It was empty; Arie and Chephirah both squeezed past him and padded into the corridor one went one way and the other the opposite direction. Not long after, they both came back and spoke. Lionhawk heard the mind talk and it echoed from both that the corridors both ways were clear. They must all hurry to the main entrance. Lionhawk opened the door wide and they all entered the corridor and moved off towards the main entrance As they approached the double door system Lionhawk peeked through the small windows and saw the corridor clear. They all pushed through and into that corridor. There were four doors along the walls, two on each side. Two of them did not have windows but the two that did; they could hear voices and such. They all moved to the end of the corridor and on the way Mark and Jim both peeked into the windows. Mark looked and saw guards quarters, what he actually saw was darkness in the room and it made him move away quickly. Jim peeked in the other window and saw a guard quarters also but the few men in it were ordinary humans so he moved to be with the others as Lionhawk stood in front of the elevator doors. The door closest to the elevator had no window so Shadowself opened it and noticed it was a stairwell. From the floor level they were on it went down and up. She mentioned that someone should explore the stair wells. Lionhawk looked at the elevator car indicator and where it was located and turned and said “Yes let’s take the stairs. The elevator is at a top level at the moment and I do not know how far that may be but we can’t wait here for it to come to us, besides Arie and Chephirah are visible. The other door turned out to be a restroom so they all piled through the stairwell door and stood on the landing.

[Lost N Found]

They had no Idea how far it was between levels but from what Lionhawk had seen there were 4 levels in all toll. They were on the third level. Lionhawk said that they should explore the lowest level first and after that maybe they could get the elevator to come to them so they could get up to the higher levels. Chephirah spoke and said she would go up to the next level above to see how far that might be. Maria said she would go with her and they both took off climbing the stairs. Maria levitated herself making it easier and Chephirah stopped for a moment and asked if she could do the same thing. Maria looked at her and said “if you would like I can levitate you to float like me. Chephirah bumped Maria’s legs and in mind speak said “please do” so they both floated up the stair well. After 24 flights they reached a landing with a door. The door did not have a window but above it was a sign and written on it was “LEVEL TWO”. Maria listened very careful and did not hear any noise on the other side. She slowly opened the door and peeked into the corridor. The corridor here was very short and had one door at the end. She and Chephirah slowly walked to the door and it had a glass panel in it. When she looked through, she saw a large room full of computers and a full wall of monitor screens on a far wall. There were only two people in the entire room and they were busy watching the monitor screens. On the screens she could see a city scape and all the activity of whatever city that might be. She thought this must be a surveillance grid or something. Something made the two people turn around but Maria had saw them turning and ducked down. She was wondering how these people might be able to even see her as long as she was cloaked. She spoke to Chephirah and they both scooted back to the stairwell door and went through and just to be safe they floated up and around the first flight and waited. They heard the door open and some one saying “nothing in here must have been your imagination Chuck” Maria heard the door shut and she spoke to Chephirah that they should go up to the top level. Chephirah was ready and they floated up.

24 more flights of stairs they came to another landing with a door. This door had a small window in it so Maria peeked through it. On the other side of the door the mountain had been carved out and a large space of granite floor and walls stood empty. She was confused at first but then noticed a room with glass panels lining a wall. There were two people manning a computer station. The lighting was quite bright on the overhead ceiling of the cave like structure. As she scanned from left to right she could just see the edge of the elevator shaft and the doors. The doors stood open and the elevator car looked empty. As she was watching the side of the cave began to open. She watched it open about 4 feet or so and three people walked in. One was a General and two were very large fat men dressed in suits. They seemed to be arguing with one another as they walked towards the elevator car. They all stopped suddenly and the General turned around to face both of them. She heard one of them raise his voice and then saw the General pull his side arm out and shoot the man. The large man seemed to fall in slow motion to the floor. She saw the General motion to the people in the room to come out. Two of them did and walked over to the General and the other man. She saw the General say something to them and point at the dead man on the floor and then turn and walk to the elevator with the other man. The General and the second man entered the elevator and the doors shut. The two men in the cave picked up the other man and hauled him over to an opening in the wall. She watched as they opened a chute of some sort and place the dead man into it He slid out of view and the chute closed. The two men then punched a series of buttons on the wall and a large fire hose nozzle unfolded from the ceiling and began to hose the floor with water. As she watched all of this the water flushed to some floor grills and disappeared. Shortly the floor was clean once more and the two people went back to the room and disappeared behind a door.
Maria and Chephirah floated back down the stairs past LEVEL TWO and stopped at the landing at LEVEL THREE. Jim, Mark and Shadowself were waiting when they showed up. Lionhawk and Arie had gone down the stairs to check out the lowest level

[Lost N Found]

Lionhawk and Arie had virtually fallen down the stairs as they jumped down each flight. When they had covered about 40 flights they stopped to catch a breath. The landing at this spot seemed to be bigger than the previous ones and they noticed a wall that had been recently patched with concrete. It looked odd but a faint outline of a door could be seen through the concrete patch. Lionhawk knew this was not the time to explore something that could possible take a lot of time to break into so he and Arie continued down. They went down another 10 flights to a bottom landing that had two doors. One was inside the stairwell and the other let out into a corridor. That door had a small window in it and Lionhawk looked through and saw a corridor that looked to be about 20 or 30 feet long before a double door system crossed it at the end. The doors looked extra wide and had windows in both leafs. Lionhawk tried the door inside the stairwell and as soon as he opened it he backed away and then shut it as fast as possible. What was in there was blackness and it smelled like coal dust. He wondered why there would be a door directly to the old coal mines. Arie had a brief moment of blue light shine from his eyes when the door was opened and then they faded again when the door closed. They both turned and opened the door into the Corridor and immediately saw the elevator doors. They also noticed a second elevator. Lionhawk spoke to Arie and said did you see a second elevator on the 3re LEVEL? Arie said he did not notice such a thing. They both proceeded to move towards the double doors.

Rolin Wakely had joined the Police force at the tender age of 18. He had joined because he had felt an enormous sense of duty to the whole of society and because the police force had accepted him where no others would. He hadn't done very well at school due to having severe learning difficulties. The police force at the time was the only place where attitude had been more important than aptitude.

It wasn't long into the job that he realised that he was doing what he loved to do.

In his earlier days as a cop, he had spent many hours visiting schools and talking to the young about how inequality influenced crime. He debated with the teachers and young alike about the justice system reformations and what could be done to aid the youth who were troubled. He was loved by everyone in his local neighbourhood because he really did what he was entrusted to do, to serve and protect all.

It was a job he had relished because it had allowed him to help people every day in the most practical and compassionate way he knew how. He was a natural. If he wasn't chasing the robber who had snatched an old ladies handbag or assisting the young drug addict in getting back on his feet, he was doing community service work with the young parole offenders or talking to the young men on the street about their gang lifestyle choices.

Whilst Rolin battled against severe learning difficulties, it hadn't dampened his curiosity about spirituality, health and wellbeing. He painstakingly researched everything and anything he could get his hands on around these subjects.

He pored over publications and books. He watched every video and attended every lecture on subjects that would stupefy most. He met with every expert in their field and peppered them with questions that the experts themselves had never stopped to think about.
It was tiring because it took him twice as long as anyone else to grasp the material but once he got it, he really got it. He persisted with a determination that could never be dampened because unbeknownst to him, he had a natural and a spiritual intelligence for all that was living. He was so cognizant of what he read that he had a better understanding of the potentialities for all lifeforms that other experts in their field could never have.

He especially loved neurology and studiously applied himself to understanding everything he could about the brain and its plasticity. He loved how new neural connections could be established by the brain, even after it was attacked by disease or accident. He loved how the body worked with the brain to intelligently bypass any challenge it faced as long as there was the conscious observance and the will to overcome.

At the beginning of his job, each day had held promise for a just and thriving society but as time wore on, he had begun to realise that the problems that society faced as a whole had origins far deeper than he had ever realised.

He had such a warm and engaging personality and such a way with people that in time, he naturally rose through the ranks. However, he found himself sitting more and more behind the desk and less time out there on the streets with the people that he wanted to protect and serve. The dreams he had of helping to create a society where true justice always prevailed was moving further and further out of his reach and he felt it deep within.
When he was finally promoted to Chief of Police, it was with a certain reluctance to spend further time away from the streets that he had once patrolled but it had once again given him hope that there could be the opportunity for real change within this city.
One day whilst he was researching the effects of psychoactive drugs upon addictions, he came across the research of Gabor Mate and his work with addictions and psychoactive drugs. He watched and read many anecdotal stories of where people who had addictions had overcome them with the use of Ayahuasca as a healing medicine. He had also seen documentaries where severe depression or diseases had been spontaneously cured and it really made him curious about how it could assist himself in putting all the spiritual pieces of the puzzle together.
It spawned the idea of his going on an ayahuasca retreat. He was encouraged to visit Peru and take part in an Ayahuasca ceremony.
He hoped that he would be open enough to receive what he needed to know but he was also realistic enough to realise that he may not have the neurological pathways in the first instance in order to not only receive the information but process it in a way that it would build awareness. Only time and a ceremony would tell.
Doing the Ayahuasca ceremony over 12 days had given him a certain sense of clarity around who he was and why he was here on this Earth but it had really only supported him in so much as offering affirmation of the way he already viewed the world. Perhaps he hadn't done the ceremony enough times to have any significant spiritual breakthroughs come his way, but perhaps, just like the people he met on retreats who had participated in ceremonies over 50 to 60 times, he would still be searching for the breakthrough answers he required?

It was just after he had come back from Peru when Amanda had flagged his car down for assistance.

When they reached the double doors, Lionhawk peered through the windows and said” wow”. He pushed the doors open and him and Arie both walked into a very large cavern that was concreted completely. It was at least a hundred feet to the ceiling and 200 feet wall to wall. The floor was complete concrete and the cavern ran about 200 feet long till it hit a solid wall of mountain that had more huge double doors in it. The cavern appeared to be unoccupied. The low level lighting close to the floor level was red lights. They both walked the distance to the larger double doors and noticed that they were like the big ones in the cave above where the vehicle bay was located. There were also a number of double man doors to the side of the big doors. Lionhawk began walking along the door walls and looking through windows in the few doors that had them. Most of the doors were solid. When he found a window he peered through and saw another Hugh cavern and it looked twice the size of the one they had just traversed. It was brighter in that large cavern and he could see rooms along the walls that had lights on inside. There were windows lining the walls on both sides and he could see people walking around inside some of them. As he kept watching a cave entrance opened up to the right of the doors he and Arie were standing behind and an armored black vehicle rolled through pulling a caged trailer behind it. The caged trailer had humans in it. Lionhawk noticed they were children and women and young men. The vehicle continued down the cavern and turned a corner or something further into the cavern. Lionhawk watched the cave doors shut and thought to his self that up on level 3 somewhere was another entrance to get vehicles down to this level. He touched Arie and told him that they were going back up to get everybody.

[Lost N Found]

Back on Level 3, everyone met once again. Maria and Chephirah told what they had found up above and Lionhawk and Arie told about what they had found below. Lionhawk wanted to find where that second vehicle entrance was located. He thought it had to be in the large vehicle bay somewhere. This time out, Lionhawk and Mark went back through the corridor and entered the circular corridor that ringed the vehicle bay. They entered the bay and stood against a wall watching. About 10 minutes later the floor opened to there left. They both saw a rather large area between the cars. Looking closely the floor system appeared to drop at an angle at one end and then they heard a vehicle coming up. As they watched the armored vehicle pulling the cage trailer rumbled up out of the hole and moved towards the big double doors, it stopped and some black suited men climbed out and walked to a door in the wall and went through. As they watched, a very large noise startled them. Turning towards the noise they caught the closing of the floor where the vehicle had come from. Turning back they saw the two black suited men come from the door and as they climbed back in the vehicle the Hugh bay doors began to open. Once opened the vehicle pulled out and moved away through the cave. The big doors closed again and all became quiet once more

[Lost N Found]

Lionhawk began to search for a control room or panel to operate the floor road. Mark had started to skirt the walls looking in one direction while Lionhawk went the other way. Lionhawk wanted to see what was in the door that the two black suited men went into and when he reached it there was not a window in it. He figured it would be worth a chance to enter and turned the knob and eased the door open. He heard a faint sound of machinery and slid into the room. Once he was in the lights were bright enough to see. As he looked around he could see a bank of computers and some manual controls that looked like levers on a wall. He walked to the computers and noticed that one was set to control the big bay doors, and the other looked as if it might control the floor road opening. The monitors were in a standby mode so he jarred a mouse looking object and both came alive. One had a view of the cave leading out and the other had a view of a road winding down inside the mountain. He could only see a short distance on that monitor but figured it was the road to level 4. The manual levers could be for operating the bay doors if the power systems failed. He did not know for sure. The room had another door so he tried it and found a small restroom. He made mental note of all this and re entered the vehicle bay. He looked for Mark and spotted him on the other side of the large bay doors. Mark saw him and waved him over. He ran across the bay and reached Mark. Mark spoke in the mind and told him that there was a door leading to another stairwell. Both men walked around the circular wall a short distance to the door. Mark said this is it and opened the door.

[Lost N Found]

Entering the stairwell Lionhawk and Mark both noticed that it only went down so they moved down as quickly as possible. The stairs only had 4 flights of 15 steps each and then they came to a door. They both noticed the Caution sign on the door. “CAUTION VEHICLE TRAFFIC” For your safety view activity through the panel at left. Lionhawk looked and saw the panel and slid it to the side. A screen showed the other side of the door and a road bed. Lionhawk opened the door and stepped through onto the road bed. He then noticed a narrow walkway with a guard rail just above the road bed skirting along the wall. It was just wide enough to let one person traverse it. The road turned a sharp corner about 50 feet or so and the slope was fairly steep, he estimated it to be around a 5% grade at this point. Looking up he could see the track system and the floor structure piece that opened to let vehicles drive down this road. He turned and grabbed Mark and they both re entered the stair well and found their way back into the vehicle bay and moved to get back to the interior corridor. Once there they both headed towards the main stairwell where everyone was waiting. As they passed the guards quarters Lionhawk felt something and knew his sword was turning a blue tinge. Now was not the time but there would be a time for he and Arie to dispatch this darkness. They both reached the stairwell and heard the elevator car moving within the shaft. They both entered the stair well just in time when the elevator doors opened and out came 5 suited men. They proceeded towards the corridor that surrounded the vehicle bay. They were talking to one another about the coming take over of 10 states.

Bruce Wormski counted himself quite lucky, sixteen years ago when the then President of the United States planted the nuke in DC and destroyed the Congress, he had been invited to go with Vinnie on his vacation to Denver. There were only a handful and Vinnie offered deals that he and others could not refuse. Guy Wyred was the latest victim of the creatures that controlled this place. He and others had been told by Alfred Nurome that when he and Guy came in they were arguing about how to get more young humans for the species that arrived hear from that other dimension, calling themselves the Burnsacka. Guy wanted to notify Vinnie of what was going on here but that General just shot him and then they dumped his body into the furnaces below. Those furnaces had been created in the deeper old coal mines and were fed constantly with Coal. These creatures were from a very hot place in their dimension and required lots of heat to survive. As he and his immediate associates walked to their cars in the Garage, as he called it, they continued to talk about the military take over of 10 states. This had been Vinnie’s idea from the git go and he had struck a semi deal with his top military commanders to nuke the major capitals in each state. He had heard a rumor that something had happened to two of the underground bunkers up north and Vinnie had sent some of his secret service personnel to verify what was going on. The main rotunda on Level two was full of associates today discussing this operation. They had been Politicians at a time in the past but now they were just associates and the people of this country were totally subject to the whims of these men but only knew that they had an Emperor. The five men reached the circular corridor and went through the double doors in the garage and climbed into their cars and began to leave by the cave as soon as the big doors opened.

Jim had watched the 5 men walk through the double doors and stepped into the corridor to check something with the elevator. If his suspicions were right these men had come from a level above them. The elevator doors were still open so he looked at the level indicator above the doors and then peeked into the elevator car its self. Sure enough their was an indicator in the car that showed all the levels but the most interesting thing was the car had doors on the front and the back He remembered Maria and Chephirah telling them that level two had a very short corridor and just one door at the end and it was a computer systems room or some such. The top main ground level was just an entry and did not have much more than an operations room. So if those men came from above it would have to be Level two and through these other doors at the back of the elevator. He told everyone his theory and they all agreed. Lionhawk said that they would have to start at the bottom because that is where they are taking humans for something. They all agreed on that and began to move down the stairwell to level 4.

AN ATOM IN FLAXVILLE
As the chopper lifted up out of the valley, the crew was filled with very good feelings. The Bears and the Beavers had given them hope and melted their nightmares away from the Gerou mission. Evelyne had healed them and told them about other wonderful things happening with mother Earth and around the world. She told them about a dreamnet that was building and people were waking up in large numbers. The animals were becoming speakers in the minds of each other and with all other species. Their time in the meadow and around Nawhaur’s pond was like a vacation. Once out of the valley their thoughts were brought back to the next mission. Jonathan and Samantha were replenishing there additional gear while Mary was watching the monitors of the tracking and other gear at her station, Samuel was playing the previous mission out in his thoughts when Bills thoughts entered his mind. Bill told him that they were near Powder River and preparing to move on that bunker. He would let them all know when they had completed that particular mission. Samuel mind spoke back and acknowledged.

Samuel asked Mary how far they were from Flaxville. She was studying the radar system and said we are about 70 miles from ground zero. Jonathan started to ask a question about how far they would be landing from ground zero when all of sudden the chopper started to shake. Samuel had been looking at the ground below but now he looked up and what he saw gave him the willies. He immediately banked the chopper to the south east and kicked the jet device into action. Mary had been looking at her monitors when there was a large light form and waves began to spread rapidly from the target area. She looked up just as the chopper banked and saw the giant mushroom cloud forming to the north east. Mary asked “What just happened”. Samuel said “I am not sure but everybody strap in tight we are going to mach 1 right now. We have to beat that EMP wave before it takes us out. He gave everyone about 3 seconds and kicked the jet system in. The chopper jumped into the speed of sound and beyond. Mary had started tracking the wave as soon as it began on her monitor and it was gaining on them. She looked at Samuel and asked if he could get this bird to go any faster. He looked back at her and said “we just reached the max speed two seconds ago. “ You might want to see if she will go any faster and within the next 15 seconds because that wave is going to overtake us at about that time. Samuel told everyone to hang on tight to something and gave the bird an extra push. He managed a few more mphs and just when they thought the wave was going to hit it dissipated at its maximum range. The chopper began to shimmy and Samuel shut the jet device down. The chopper kept on moving and began to slow down. They had beaten the wave but did not know what kind of damage may have happened yet. Samuel was searching for a secluded area to set down so they could survey the bird. Mary said all of her gear was still working and found a secluded spot just ahead.

Samuel brought the bird into a low circular pattern and saw the area. He slowed to a hover and they checked the area for any people and vehicles. After checking for clear space they landed the bird into an open area inside a large clump of trees. Samuel shut the rotor off and they sat for a short space just to unwind. Jonathan asked what had happened. Samantha unbuckled herself and stood up and almost immediately fell back. Jonathan grabbed her and steadied her. She sat back down and looked a bit pasty faced. Mary asked if she was going to be alright. Samantha shook her head up and down and waited for an answer from Samuel. Samuel turned and said “it appears that ground zero is exactly where that bunker was located in Flaxville. A small nuclear bomb was set off. I very much doubt there is much left of that place and I suspect that Flaxville itself plus any surrounding population are gone also. We were a little less than 70 miles when that thing went off”. He looked at Mary for exact distance and she said “When you began to turn we were only about 50 miles”. So that bunker was closer than we thought”. Mary asked “so what do you suppose caused that to happen”? Samuel looked at all of them and could only guess at the moment. “I can give speculations only at the moment. Nr. One, since we took out the facility at Gerou information could have been relayed to destroy the one at Flaxville. Two, there could have been a major accident there. That is as far as I can get right now. We wait for awhile before we go back there to investigate. Meanwhile we should go to Butte and see what we can do with that one. Remember what we learned. Flaxville was more a less a parts plant for that Laser rifle. Where as Butte is a tech lab for chips and such. So far we have managed to take out 3 of these facilities and Flaxville was taken out either by accident or on purpose to keep something very quiet. 4 out 21 that leaves 17 and I suspect all of the other bunkers have been put on high alert by now. So Butte is not going to be so easy. Mary said “you know that scientist that was going to use that Colonel for his test subject was hiding something about that Laser rifle. I could not quite get it from his mind before he became a pile of melted flesh. Jonathan told her he was so sorry about all of that. He did know that the weapon had a chip in it and it was more than likely that it was manufactured at the facility in Butte. Mary told him not to worry about it and hopefully they would find something at Butte. Samuel got up and said I need to investigate the out side of this bird before we leave. Shall we all give it a going over?

Amanda had Rolin's number the moment she found out that he had been attending Ayahuasca ceremonies. She had spent countless hours, with a well-known spy and informant within the police force. She had plied him with a lot of alcohol to get the dirty on Rolin. She knew that people grew loose tongues with alcohol and this spy was no different. And now she had Rolin right where she wanted him. She knew that no one in the police force would accept this as any less than drug-taking and she had now blackmailed the spy into giving evidence about Rolin if needs be.

"Poor stupid guy," she said to herself as Rolin's police car approached her vehicle.

She pushed the button on her electric window to roll it down.

Rolin had quickly spied the expensive Bentley parked on a lone and dusty highway. On closer inspection, the car's tyre was almost flat. He let out a sigh when he noticed who it was. Amanda was well known in the Police district. She had a way with the lads that he didn't like or appreciate.
He didn't like what he saw as he approached the car because he caught a glimpse of her smile in her side view mirrors. It was a truly evil and loathsome smile. Intuitively, he felt himself stiffen, sickened at the thought of the having to deal with her.
He had studiously avoided Amanda at any of the charity functions hosted by his colleagues but now there was no avoiding her.
It wasn't long into changing her tyre that he found out that he was right to trust his gut instinct and now he was trapped.

[Constance]

Nick had induced an altered state in Rolin by hugging Rolin and whispering in his ear an embedded command in such a way that he immediately went into a trance. Whilst still in that deep altered state, Rolin had seen himself in everyone he had ever met. He had been everyone who had ever lived and he was everyone he would ever meet.
It was this part that was so earth shattering. He realised that every thought, action and deed vibrated a message throughout the universe and directly affected every other being because they were also a part of him, a part of the whole.
And now...he was coming out of the trance.
"Wait..." Rolin shouted to no one in particular as he found himself back in this reality.

[Constance]

It wasn't far into her journey back to the house that Amanda spied Connie wandering in the forest picking flowers.
She, the dark one, was smart enough to realise that she wasn't on home territory and that she required every bit of cunning to bring down Connie. So she hid until she had scoped the landscape.

The first rock hit Connie on the side of the head with a force that stunned Connie.

Her ears buzzed and she saw stars. She went down easily and tried to get up but she felt sickeningly dizzy. Blood poured from her ear and her head felt like it had exploded. Another rock missed and landed near her. It was enough for her to realise that she was being attacked and she forced herself to stand.
Amanda came at her with full force. With one broken heel she could still half run. She held a branch in her hand and intended to give it a full work out.
