The Stargate Black Hole (26 page)

They had many conversations with it, which
had concluded with their agreement with each other, and they had
made the being their acting head of the world, and its
president.

They were even surprised that they had
influenced the being so much with their civilization and GX1 that
it had intensions of now building its own similar civilization, and
they agreed to help it with what it needed.

All the explorations of the world had been
completed, and they were making a withdrawal from the region.

The scientists began carefully bringing in
its eggs that they had detected, all through the ship, and allowed
it to confirm that they were all there, and they turned the energy
bubble off and allowed it its freedom, which could have been
dangerous at one point, but they now had a way to stop it doing
anything if it decided to change its mind.

The time being slowly altered into its
normal solid state, to show them its true identity, and not its
energy states or its original ancient species state, which it had
acquired to survive, and they were surprised how human it looked,
even with its large size. But most of all how much it looked like a
medieval wizard
–
especially with its immense cloak, covered in ancient symbols
and stars, with only a suggestion of its power on its ancient
intelligent face, and Kruger wondered how deadly they looked to it,
even though their size was nothing like its.

By its reactions he could tell that it had
something that it could use against them, but it could not win, and
he glared at it trying to find a clue.

The time being waved its arms and all the
eggs vanished away, to somewhere else. Perhaps to its tower room,
now back at the top of the castle, where they had replaced it.

The alien was an astounding as a life form as
an entity, and was full of energy, and Kruger was sure it had
conquered all forms of sickness, as well as immortality, and he was
sure it was many thousands of years old, and wondered what marvels
it had encountered, and he wondered if humans would one day alter
into such beings, with such powers.

Chapter 37

The New Project

When Kruger
arrived at the paranormal scientists laboratory he realized
straight away that they had something, by the way they were working
away and making all the scientists work like crazy to finish their
project, which he never even attempted to recognize this time, as
the complexity and unfamiliarity of it was too great, and he could
only stare in bewilderment at what was there.

It was beyond
his imagination, and by looks he spotted it was the same for many
of the scientists, and he started thinking of the time being and
what had recently being happening. He was glad that it had gone on
their side, and they were now even working with it, and they had
learned a great deal about it, and far more than they could have.
Yet the thing could be dangerous beyond belief, and he wished it
never existed or they had never found it. At times it resembled one
of the most hideous things he had seen!

Their number
one problem now was that they had not found a way to return to the
universe, and no matter how much they worked on the project it
still never resolved anything. The problem that confronted them was
that they could not locate the universe, and there was no proper
way available, and signs kept indicating that they would be stuck
there.

It was not the
fact that the universe that they were in had anything wrong with
it, it was the fact that they had people to return to and things to
complete by returning and the mission would also be a disaster, and
the biggest, most expensive, highly advanced spacecraft would be
even classed as a flop, and he doubted if they would ever build
another, and it would be a disaster that would ruin all their work,
and incredible discoveries, if mankind never received it, and all
the future would be altered by the technology and GX1 not being
there, and them not warning them of what they had encountered.

They had to
return, and they would not stop working on the problem until they
had achieved it.

He decided to
introduce himself to Bryan, as he stopped his work, of analyzing a
device.

“
Well,
what have you come up with now?” he asked, looking bewildered,
realizing it was getting worse, and he now could not identify
anything there.

The place was
packed with newly manufactured equipment, which he had known they
were working on and creating all over the place at different
locations, and he had been too involved with his work to bother
about investigating it.

“
You know
we got a great deal of scientific breakthroughs from the time
being! Well, the major one was time travel!”

“
Time
travel!” he gasped, and recalled the presence of Don, and the
events that might have made him appear there.

“
Yes! It
is incredibly complex, and we have everyone that we have working on
this project!”

“
What
will you use time travel for?”

“
A time
probe! We are going to send a probe back in time, and it will
follow the spacecraft back into the black hole and locate the
universe, and we will also use it to examine the outer universe,
and the other universes there, and find ways to locate
them!”

Chapter 38

The Time Probe

The time probe
was launched and vanished into the past, to chase the spacecraft
back in time, to follow the spacecraft back into the black hole,
and voyage beyond the universe, and approximately one minute later
it reappeared, after the completion of its mission, with it having
traveled back into the future to a minute afterwards.

Kruger gasped
at the technology behind it, and realized there could a whole
hidden universe about him of multidimensional things and objects
traveling in time.

The probe
resembled some form of highly advanced missile, and he examined it
looking for any damage, and for any signs of powerful forces acting
upon it, and hardly saw anything and it looked like it had been
when it had left.

He wondered
what uses such an object could have. Space probes were still being
used all over the place, and were cheaper and far better than
sending out spacecrafts, and he thought of all the missions that it
could carry out.

They had to be
able to find and identify the outer universes, and once the
scientists had checked all its information, they all started
rejoicing, and started announcing all the information to the media,
and that they could go home.

The incredible
thing was there were no signs in the recorded voyage of the white
entity globes that he had seen there when he had entered the outer
universe, and he had questioned others about it and found that
nobody but him and the two paranormal scientists had seen them, and
they had only given terrifying accounts of them thinking that they
had been dieing there.

The problem
with the actual voyage, and them traveling as energy forms in such
a mind-bending way, was it was not acceptable, and it could only be
used if their lives depended upon it, and after some investigations
he found out that they intended to use an energy beam that would
put everyone aboard to sleep as they entered the black hole, and
that they would be immediately awakened on their return to the
universe, and they would not even realize what had happened.

The launch from
the world was tremendous, and everyone celebrated going home, and
what it would be like returning home, with all their stories and
discoveries, and Kruger thought of the alien in its castle.

They had given
it everything that they could to start its civilization, and its
eggs had hatched, and it started using all the equipment and
supplies that they had provided.

Kruger watched the voyage into the black hole
on a large screen with all the scientists, as they all rested in a
large hall in seats, where they would be put to sleep when they
left the universe, like being thrown into suspended animation.

The voyager darted straight towards the black
hurricane shape, of particles of space matter, asteroids, moons,
planets, and suns.

Its black region stretched across the screen
like a black monster, and some form of new galaxy, with formations
of swirls of matter going around it.

Some
people reacted nervously as the
deep black radius
swiftly grew, and some gritted their teeth as its blackness
engulfed them, and darkness covered the screen, and he saw objects
darting into it in lines of light, and the screen lit up with
diagram lines, marking the blackness with lines showing different
regions of it with symbols marking various points of it, and the
voyager went straight to a region marked in its depths.

The tremendous speed seemed to increase as it
gripped and pulled it towards it, and the voyager shook, and they
fell asleep as it turned like to an earthquake tremor.

Chapter 39

The Universe

The universe
was strange, and he wondered if they were the first to experience
the sensation. It was like some element there was not in the other
universe, and he also felt that there was something else in the
other universe that was not there.

The mission was
a complete success, and everyone aboard was rejoicing, and all the
scientists were excitedly working through all the information that
they collected in the outer universe, and they were just starting
their mission of putting it all together, before they returned to
the Earth.

They had
traveled through the entire outer universe without knowing it, and
had awoken to the site of the universe, when their equipment had
put them back into space and time, at the same location, in the
void, and they were leaving the void and the entity behind, and he
wondered what it had been and if they had picked it up wrongly, and
if they could have made a deal with it in the same way as they had
done with the time being back on the world.

It was
unbelievable the amount of advances that they had achieved, and he
wondered if it was a mistake or if they would be remembered in the
future for transforming their empire into something incredible.

They could now
travel space and time and locate themselves in other universes,
dimensions, times, and use leaving space and time to relocate
themselves just about anywhere in the universe, and he wondered if
the they made the GX1 outdated already, which they would never have
believed could happen.

In fact the
only real damage he now had was the death of his girlfriend, Marsha
Pendleton, who died hideously from being attacked by the alien
monster in the void, and he regretted it immensely, and having to
go back and tell everyone about her death, and he started to
realize that they had time travel, and he might be able to go back
and save her.

The whole trip
could very well be ruined by it, and he would know that he could
have prevented it, and he decided to try to persuade the two
paranormal scientists into allowing him to go back and save her,
and went over to their research center.

When he arrived
he was startled to see Don there, and wondered what was going on,
and examined them trying to see what they were up to, and he felt
that they had predicted his arrival by some means, and they seemed
startled that Don was there too.

“
We have
some good news!” Bryan eventually announced, after he had finished
examining his reactions, seeing he was not going to say anything.
“Don wants to go back in time to save Marsha Pendleton, as he
thinks it was his faulty that she was killed ...”

“
Can you
actually send
him
back?” he
asked, begging for it to be true.

“
We can,
and we can return him to the void in vehicle four!”

Kruger could
not believe his luck, and realized how lucky he was now! He
realized that Don was probably more determined to save her, after
all the things that he had been through, and he had more experience
than him of time travel.

“
I
believe that I can save her by relocating her to the right location
before the alien attacked the spacecraft, as I have located areas
that were not attacked ...”

“
Why do
you not just stop the alien getting aboard?”

“
For one
thing I am not sure that I could do it, and changing that could do
a great deal more damage ...”

“
He
cannot go that far!” Mitchel replied, firmly. “He could alter
everything – and we could end up in a worse scenario! We never knew
the alien was there, and if is possible for him to kill it or even
stop it, the entity may do something else, and may succeed in doing
it ...”

Kruger was
amazed and thanked them greatly, especially for not having to go
back there and go through it all again.

Many things
about time travel confused him, and he had a hard time working
things out, and wondered if they were as positive of the outcome as
they made out, as he thought he would be the one to go back in
time, and he would be Don.

“
What I
don’t get is what will happen to Don if he goes back? Will another
version of him appear here after he has gone back, and will there
be four versions of me back there?”
