Time Warp (5 page)

“How could you do that
if it this had already happened? “ Asked Carl

“Yes
! Only with our advanced technology, we had the capability of time warp “, answered Sonard“So we went back into the past to stop the confrontation from accruing, however, we had one small problem!”

“What’ problem is that?
“ Asked Carl not believing a word Sonard was saying.

“The inhabitants of the planet where very hostile, and to try and disguise are selves to
enable us to work amongst them would have been impossible “, answered Sonard.

“The inhabitants, don’t you mean man?
“ Said Carl

“No Ca
rl, I am afraid when we arrived, you your spices Homo sapient did not exist, your species never even evolved “, answered Sonard.

Carl was puzzled, this se
emed more weird then he thought but even more interesting than he had ever imagined, even though no one in their right mind would take any of this nonsense seriously. “Then who was the dominant species? “ Asked Jan

“It was you distant cousins Homo erectus as you might call them, they had evolved to be the dominate species, their brains where larger than yours and they had the knowledge and capability of becoming an advanced race, but for one thing.”

“What’s that?” asked Carl.

“The barbaric, or animal side of them remained, they advanced there technology not to advance their sel
ves, but to destroy one another “, answered Sonard.

Maya continue to explain the whole process that took place, and how one of their brilliant scientists named Adameus, came up with a plan to return to the very beginni
ng of time to solve the problems that had overcome planet earth. In addition, by delivering a new species combined with their own genes they hoped that a more conscious, intelligent species would be born.

“
Ok this all sounds good, only man has done nothing but wage wars, stock pile nuclear weapons and do his best to destroy the planet! “ answered Carl.

“Yes
! That is why hundreds of years ago we sort to educate man by sending one of our disciples to teach humanity to embrace one another and to love they neighbor, helping him to become a humble race like ours “,answered Sonard.

“You’re starting t
o sound like some holy preacher “, said Carl.

Sonard
was silent; Carl stared at him realizing that Sonard was implying they sent our god to us? The whole scenario was confusing but at the same time, it made sense. For decades man had been puzzled by questions as whom we are, where we did come from, who were are real ancestors. Sonard however bizarre it all may seem had just answered most of these questions in just a matter of minutes. Carl needed time to reflect on what was being said, it was all proving  too much for him to absorb all in one go.

Maya broke the silence and continued with her explanations, “Yes Carl we did send someone to help man, however, man refused to acknowledge him
. Mans greed for power and thirst for blood was more than we had bargained for, we tried to influence the direction which man took by planting our seeds amongst them, giving the world new technologies, “ Maya was interrupted.

“What do
you mean planted your seeds”, asked Carl.

“Your species was so ignorant to develop on its own, occasionally w
e would fertilize a human woman so as to mix our high standard or I.Q. as to put it with your primitive ways, so as to push man beyond his capabilities “,answered Maya.

“You
mean you abducted and abused us “, asked Carl

“Yes
! Has it ever accord to you sometimes a genius is born? And how his off spring help to develop mankind pushing him technically forward, it if it was not for our doings man will still be living in caves!“

“Ok so let’s get this straight, “said Carl

“. You are implying that you came here to save our planet, you created Homo Sapient, helped us advance our self, you are also saying that you and your people actually carved our path throughout history, for what? Man is still on the brink of a third world war, so what was the point of all of this. And most of all where do we fit in, you have superiority so why kidnap us?” The room went quite again, Maya accidentally knocked her pen on the floor she excused herself and leaned underneath the table. Carl felt her cold hands around his ankles, he froze in his seat wondering what she was up to, and if anything, this was not the time or place to start this type of nonsense. Maya pulled on Carl’s socks and slipped a round object down into his shoe. Carl felt the strange object and looked over to Maya, “I am sorry, I lost my pen”, she said to Carl with a big smile. Carl wondered why was something not right here, everyone seemed too polite, and why was Maya passing on some type of information she did not want anyone else to know about? Sonard broke the silence once again, “You see Carl all we have done for you species failed, we tried to turn an ape into a supreme race but the animal side of man remained, our time here is over. Mankind is doomed and so is your planet eventually man will embark on some kind of self destructive course, and there is nothing we can do about it.”

“Yes but where do we fit in?
“ Ask Carl. “When you discovered the data, storage device, with it was another object, one that can help us go back to our own planet “, said Sonard.

Carl remembered that his unc
le had found a spear head thing that resembled the same material as the pendent, inside the underwater cave that Carl had discovered years ago while he was still in his teens, Was this what Sonard was referring to? Carl shook his head; “I am sorry Sonard but all I found was the pendent, surely with your technology of time travel and space warp you can use something else to get you back home? “

“That is impossible
! In the early 1950 our mother ship became disable, a male function had developed in her heat shields on reentering earth’s atmosphere. A main thruster exploded, the whole ship plummeted to earth, some of us escaped through the time warp that is what brought us here, and some of us were thrown back into the past lost forever. The whole ship struck the earth with such forces, that over 200 kilometers of forest were destroyed. A radioactive substance contaminated the area for years leaving us stranded here; our scout ships searched your planet for decades trying to find any survivors only it was all in vain. We learned through your old newspapers,
that our people had been searching in the wrong period, that is why UFO sittings were so common during that the last century, and now they have become outdated. You see the spearhead is our only hope for us to return to our own planet “, said Sonard.

Carl began to think about the crash some were in Siberia, a Hugh comet was supposed to have struck there, only recent discoveries concluded that some types of machined materials were suppose to have been discovered deep inside the craters core
.

In addition,
if all of this were true, it could explain why in the last century UFO sittings seemed to have been so common, could it be that other spacecraft from Sonard race were desperately trying to search for the spearhead, Or for any other survivors. Sonard did say some of his people entered the time warp to escape death, may be they were really trying to search for Sonard to take him back home, it still seemed possible to Carl that the whole thing over in Siberia could acutely have been Sonard mother ship. Even though recently the British denied there was any significant proof, to back up any extra terrestrial spacecraft had ever landed in Briton. Then again, if any country did say visitors from outer space are for real, it could send the people into a mass panic. Still Carl was confused and things did not add up, some of the jigsaw was still missing. What really hid behind Sonard cool expressions, why did they come here in the first place? Carl had learned through hard times that no one does anything for nothing however humble they might be. Carl looked over to Jan she was just as puzzled as he was. Carl needed time to think, time to evaluate the situation; after all, Sonard did not produce any proof only facts based on his own consummations. Finally, Maya spoke giving Carl the break he needed.

“Mr. Sonard sir, do you think it would be better to let Carl and Jan rest before they give you an answer
? I am sure they must be tired after their ordeal.”

“We’ll
certainly, take all the time you need, may be tomorrow they might see things at a different prospective “, answered Sonard.

Jan and Carl stood up and followed Maya outside, the huge hench
men that guarded the door were no longer there, “Follow me if you please I will show you to your rooms “, said Maya.

Carl and Jan followed her down a winding corridor; Carl had a strange feeling they were heading somewhere else. “Where are going? “ Asked Carl

“Be quite and just follow me
“.

“Why are trying to help us?
“ Asked Carl

Maya stopped and pulled them both into an empty room. “I am trying to help you because
everything is not what it seems “, said Maya“. How do you mean? “Asked Carl

“The
only reason they came here was to take control of your planet “, said Maya

“
But why? “

“Because their planet was doomed, years ago they discover their sun was on the verge of becoming a white dwarf
“

“What does that me
an “, asked Jan

“It means their sun was dying, their planet was starting to freeze over, they had resulting to living under ground and the subzero temperature killed everything on their planet’s surface. 

They had no choice but to seek a new planet to colonize, that is when they found yours. Unfortunately, your planet contains minerals similar to theirs, and the temperatures and atmospheric pressures were the same as their planet over in a different galaxy. “

“But still, what I don’t understand is why all of this nonse
nse about starting a new specie “, Asked Carl.

“It’s not nonsense
! Erectus was not prepared to share the planet with them, which is what started the nuclear war in the first place; earth had become a useless dead planet, a nuclear active waste ground. Their only hope was to form another species that looked and resembled them, that way they could mingle amongst you and go Undetected. “

“Surely with their technology
they could easily have defeated Erectus?” asked Carl.

“That is true, but their societie
s are bound by ancient believes that it is not possible for them to even consider taking another live in vain, that is their code.”

“Why do you keep saying them, aren’t you one of them?
“ Asked Carl

“No not quite! I am a half-breed, I don’t believe what they are doing and nor did my biological father Adameus, that’s why Sonard cast him out into the past so he could not interfere with his plans
. Nevertheless, my father was a clever man; he took with him two electronic devices, “said May.

“You
mean the pendent I found and the spearhead “, Replied Carl.

“Yes
, my father knew that someday someone will reveal the planets secrets and without the spear head Sonard cannot complete his plans.”

“What plans are you on about
? You just said they are a humble race not capable of taking life “, said Carl.

“Yes
but I believe Sonard has become insane, desperate to seek his goal of a New World for his people and another thing you don’t have to kill to destroy someone “, answered Maya. “ What do you mean by that? “Asked Jan

“Come follow me
I will show you.”

Carl and Jan followed Maya
until they came to a door at the end of a corridor, Maya

Placed her hand on a scanner device, the door opened, Carl and Jan entered they froze not believing what they were seeing, “Holy shit! What creature is capable of doing this
? “

Jan covered her eyes, the sites they where witnessing where inhumane even to barbaric standards. Strings of humans
hung from the ceiling in sacks, which contained some kind of fluid, pipes, emerged from their bodies passing through their skulls, and it was if they were on some kind of life support system. “What the hell is all this for? “ Asked Carl

“ It’s like I told yo
u, they don’t take another life instead they remove their brains and hook them up to this support system, keeping them alive until they die naturally, they will do the same to me if they found out that I was helping you ”,said Maya.

“So how do we get out of here?
“ Asked Carl

“Go to the other end of the
corridor, there you will see a control room that’s the teleportation system “, said Maya.

“That is all good and so, but how the hell are we going to operate it? “

“Don’t worry you will figure it out, jus
t remember to stay in the light “, replied Maya.

“And what about the disk you put into my sock, tell us what is on it?
“ Asked Carl

“That w
ill help you solve Sonard plans but remember the truth is written all around you, look into the old prophecies they will guide you”,
