Sam Sawyer
Chapter Eleven
“Oh no Kathy
I did change you, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean, I didn’t know.”
“It’s all
right Sam, its good,” Kathy smiled, “I saw them Sam, really saw them. I know things
about them they don’t even know. The Oloran have no idea because they can’t see
themselves. Their inner darkness, their hollowness, their soulless state is
lost to them. They’re compelled by forces, needs they are not even aware of and
the Nordics are the same. They are both desperately ignorant.”
“They look
down on us,” Kit said, “I can feel it.”
“Fear Kit,”
Kathy replied, “they fear us, sense our power our connection to a much greater
reality.”
“The Oloran are
explorers.” Sam interjected, “they know we have something deep within us, a
connection to the rest of reality, a reality they want to explore, experience.
They just don’t know what to call it. They think they want knowledge and sensation,
when, they just want to keep on living. That’s why they haven’t attacked Earth or
even tried to invade. They don’t want to risk wiping out humanity. They can’t
help but sense our life is potentially their everlasting life, but not if they snuff
it out.”
“But they
have shutdown our nukes before.” Sam said.
“Another
experiment, partially successful,” Kathy stumbled back, “whew, not feeling like
myself, give me a minute. It’s like a river pouring through my head, feel like
it’s about to wash my brain right out of my skull.” She said falling back into
Sam’s waiting arms.
“Yeah,” Said
Sam, “I’ve had similar feelings, don’t worry it’ll pass. I get what you’re
saying. They couldn’t shut all the nukes down at the same time, at least not
enough.”
Kit shook
her head, “But I thought the Oloran were ghost, spirits. The shadow people…”
“Are just
their minds projecting themselves,” Kathy interjected, “not their souls. Their existence
stops at the mind. Ours’ does not. They feel that other greater reality when
they touch us, go inside us. It’s like they are standing at the edge of a cliff,
looking out over a vast landscape they can never step into.”
“Whoa,” said
Sam, “you just got all that from that little levitation light trick?”
“I didn’t
fight them Sam.” She replied, “you did. Your resistance filtered out a lot of
information and gave the Oloran something to weaponize.”
“Well thank
you Miss Yin.” Sam said.
“You’re
quite welcome Mr. Yang.”
“What!?” Kit
asked. “Yin Yang?”
“It’s a joke,”
Kathy replied, “the ultimate inside joke.”
“If you say
so,” Kit said rolling her eyes as she spoke. “Now what?”
“First thing
Kathy calls her parents, then she decides if she wants to go back to school and
try and live a normal life. I don’t see us mounting a counterattack. If what we
just soused out is true then we need not worry about Earth, ourselves, oh yeah.
But the general population should be safe from the so called ‘powers that be’
at least for now.”
“But we’re like
lightning rods,” Kathy said, pulling away from Sam as she spoke, “we know too
much, we can do too much. Doesn’t that make us a threat? Wherever we go that threat
will follow, right?”
Sam nodded
yes.
“Then there are
the other changelings,” Kit quickly injected, “they don’t like you Sam, some of
them are very jealous, the others don’t trust you. They think you are one of
them, the Oloran, and you are, or were, until your creators pumped enough human
DNA into you so you could be a good little earthman which is exactly what you
turned out to be, I’m sure they didn’t expect that. Who knew the soul rides on human
DNA? It’s for certain they didn’t. Anyway, some of the changelings really want to
lash out. They need to see themselves as superior, Earth’s next generation
humans.”
“Anything
but a failed experiment,” Kathy piped in, “they are probably more of a threat
to mankind than the Oloran or the Nordics, at least in the short run.”
“So, I have to
pick a fight with the Nordics while fending off the changelings. Sounds
dangerous, maybe you should go Kathy.”
“No, I’m
staying,” she said flatly, “not bringing this mess to my parents’ doorstep.”
“Yeah Kathy,
let them come here, not there.”
“Well Sam,
they are everywhere.” She rolled her eyes again, but this time she wasn’t being
a snotty teenager. “We’re not alone.”

I'm on edge now, don't want
I'm on edge now, don't want the Nordics or the changelings to rule. I wonder what Sam will do.
I like the idea of them standing on the edge of a cliff and only being able to look, but not step into our world...good metaphor.
Still reading.
Jenny.
