A Flute of a Girl's Bones - SF Novel (Chapters 7, 8, 9, 10 of 10)

The work in which they placed me was a hundred kilometers away from my place of "The Scientific Commanding Complex". I used to travel by a small capsule that flew for a few seconds and land in a well-arranged garden in front of the building in which I work. This building was called "Space Pick up Researches Center". By "space pick up" they mean that they pick up anything which is abnormal or weird in the universe.

They say that the whole universe is in a state of arrangement or harmony since all of its movements and happenings are natural and reasonable but this state makes universe dull, inactive and undeveloped. But it is known that universe develops and produces new. Therefore, there are abnormal states of break through that take place during this arrangement. They "pick up" them and account for them as well as study their consequences. As these consequences may be the birth of a new star or the death of a star or the genesis of a new life!

And they do, each hour, "pick up" a weird abnormal event that produces a new thing in the universe, and they analyze it.

The scientists who carry out such a job have been selected extremely accurately as they study the character of the scientist as well as his study, his culture, his interests, his wishes and his psychological condition very carefully before they are appointed to any job on their planet, to place him in the position that suits him. They have found out that the best job that suits me and my creativity is "space pick up".

The team with whom I worked consisted of seven individuals, myself and six other "Mitsuians", four of whom were males and two females.

On the first day of work we gathered around a small table on which there was a nylon-like board on which there were strange geometrical lines, words and symbols which I could not understand.

I looked around me at the yellow faces, and at the blue eyes that reveal great deal of intelligence, and I caught sight of the eyes of one of the two girls. To my astonishment, she also looks at me, a look that I understood well. For the first time I see an expressive look here on planet "Mitsu". The look says something, it says I sympathized with you for what happened to you!, yes I did read this clearly in it!

I averted my eyes confusedly, and I heard the head of the team saying:

- Our role in the next task is to reveal the secret of the emergence of tiny particles of a living matter in the mantle of the deserted planet "Mantu".

One of the members suggested:

- This may give a sign that planet "Mantu" is on its way to be inhabitable.

Another one said:

- The reason why these particles emerged was that the conditions necessary for their emergence were satisfied in the mantle of the planet and not on the planet itself. As we all know that "Mantu" does not possess the conditions required to have any kind of life!

Another one said :

- Why would not the emergence of these particles be resulting from the "Pumino" race whom we have been fighting. They may have placed them here to mislead us and make us transfer our military bases from planet "Mantu" which is near to them to another far place, because the chemical substances in our weapons will certainly go bad - due to its composition - in the presence of living beings on the planet!!

It was a bold notion presented by one of the members, but the head of the team shouted opposed his notion bitterly, whereas the member insisted on it. And there was much discussion and voices were loud of both supporters and opposes. Whereas I looked attentively at the situation but I did not interfere in the discussion. I caught sight of the eyes of the girl again, and to my astonishment, she was still looking at me, the same looks, the looks of sympathy and pity!

+++ +++ +++

When I returned to my room I was in charge of preparing a report about these living particles and account for their emergence from my view. But these people are dreamers. How could I work and produce for another race?! How could I exert an effort for the progress of creatures who commit crimes on the part of humanity every day?! They are really dreaming. But the astounding thing and which prevented me from sleeping that night was what "Newton" had said, he had said that the scientists of the Earth do not feel like returning to earth! Their thinking has become in tune and they have merged into the "Mitsuian" society's structure so much that I can say that they are "loyalty" to these people!

There must have been some influence that affected them by these people. They are capable of doing everything mercilessly in order to achieve their wishes.

Things were interlocking in a confusing way, and questions were contradicting, and ideas were mixed, until felt sleepy, and I fell asleep!

It was not a deep sleeping, it was an equivocal unusual journey I went through, it is a dream, or a terrible nightmare.

I saw pictures hitting each other and mixed for strange meanings I could not understand, everything was transparent before me, people and things. And I could see through them meanings. I see a man turning into a tree, this tree is good. And I see a house turning into fire, this fire is force, then I see this fire revealing the face of the horrible Earth leader "Lenin" maker of the communist revolution in Russia who is here with me on "Mitsu". He symbolizes this force.

Then I find him shouting his famous expression which he used to say on Earth "Nothing can defeat iron but fire, and man is harder than iron as he needs blazing fire without smoke to be convinced of something". Then I find him laughing and shouting. And suddenly a strange peace prevails, and I see "Beethoven", and I hear his tunes which emanates from his heart, and I feel that his heart is the heart of the whole universe, and the universe sings and plays, and the entire people dance in an unparalleled dreaming imaginary party. Everything seemed like an illusion bathed in illusion. And ideas were reacting within me ecstatically, they want to be launched, they are locked up, merely concealed wishes, they may be at the point of dying, and may be die. And I find myself shouting:

- No, they would not die, they would not die ..

And I find that "Hitler" is smiling and looking at me amicably and saying: the world has wronged me, I has been said to be mad, but I am the one who has been a head of my time with ideas they could not understand, unity is power, and I wanted to united the world, so they cursed me, man likes war, and unity prevents war, so there was nothing but leaving for the future, and I found that I am safe here, they have wronged me. And he laughs and I find him vanishing in front of me little by little and in his place a horrible heap of entwined snakes revealed, it symbolizes him, or rather he symbolizes it, or it symbolizes this unity!!. And things are mixed again and I find all the Earth's scientists - who are on "Mitsu" - gathered around me and saying to me that staying here is better, in the age of light, and freedom, and progress. And I put my head downwards and murmured to myself:

- The future is always better than the past!

I woke up uncomfortably, with my face full of sweat. What an annoying nightmare!

Oh, there is only few minutes for my work. So I woke up actively and went to work immediately with a strong desire which I did not have before this night.

And at the same table our team sat and every member placed his own report about the subject we are studying in front of him, except me, and just then I was very sorry and regretful because I had not made this report as it would undoubtedly benefit them in this study. My love for working with them has increased strangely overnight!

And the girl who looked at me was not present.

"Mitsuian" members presented their reports to the head. And I promised to make my report today, and I was very honest in my promise!

And as soon as I had returned to my room I began writing and preparing the report very enthusiastically. I was so merged into work that I forgot that I am on a strange planet. And before my night was over I had written the report and suggested the steps recommended to reveal the secret of these living particles!

Then I went to my bed and slept, and what a difficult thing it is my sleeping once more. The annoying nightmares again. I see that the Earth is blazing in space, and people screaming, and I see "Mitsuians" trying to put it out, and shouting: man has set Earth on fire, and I see the people of the Earth asking for my help: help .. Then I could put the Earth's fire out, and I see its widespread destruction, and I find a man shouting at me: Why have you put it out you criminal!. Then I find the grand scientist "Einstein" saying to me:

- Leave alone Earth and everything on it, your real home is here, where science and light are found.

I find myself convinced in the end. How strange!. How mad!

And I jumped out of my bed shouting:

- Cursed in the Earth.

Oh, I am the one who is cursed. How could I curse Earth?! it is a horrible nightmare once more. It is torture once more and that was repeated every night, the same horrible dreams. I became even afraid of sleeping, and I had certain periods in which I could not sleep for three days continuously because I was afraid of these annoying nightmares, and when I sleep, and I think I am too exhausted to have such dreams, however I witness a long time passed during my sleep.

And the longer I am here the more I love "Mitsu" and its people in a strange way, and less my belonging and loyalty to Earth become. I fought this feeling but in vain I find myself working with them sincerely and with devotion as if I were working on Earth!

But I felt that there were many things taking place secretly!

+++ +++ +++

I went to work someday, and it was early, and I got into the hall in which our team meets, and in the distance I found her, the "Mitsuian" girl who was looked at me, sitting quietly and very peacefully. I come near to here noiselessly and as her back was in front of me she did not see me. And I heard her saying words which I heard before,

Salutation to work ..
to creativity ..
to the fresh new experience ..
to the living will in its persistence in presenting the new .. Whatever strange it may be ..

It is their national anthem which I heard in the beginning of the meeting I attended lately.

I came closer till I became in front of her, and she moved her head upwards and looked at me and she was very happy when she saw me in front of her. She made a gesture for me to sit down so I sat down and my heart beats were thought to be so loud that I think she might hear them ..

- I am "Fertmeria" your colleague ..

Then she looked deeply at me, then I asked her:

- I see that you may be interested in me, why?

- I sympathize with a lot you Earth scientists.

- ...

- You have become far from your home and family, and you are to stay with us till your end. They are criminal they care for the good of our race only without taking any other race into consideration. So they kidnap them and tear their emotion!

- But I am nearly comfortable for living here, it seems that I am used to living with you and with your society.

- You do not know what they do ..

And slowly she changed her way of sitting and said:

- I will tell you, they kill the emotion of your love for your planet. They strangle it, and in the meantime they inculcate into you the love for our planet, and love for working and producing to us.

- They kill the emotion of my love for Earth, how?

- You become fear sleeping now, because of the horrible nightmares, do not you?

I was surprised that she knows that, I said:

- Yes ..

- These dreams are conceptions and imaginations that come to you during the execution of an accurate program on your brain. Its aim is killing the emotion of your loyalty to Earth and inculcating a new emotion which is loyalty to "Mitsu"!

- An accurate program on my brain!

- Yes, the cushion on which you sleep is but an accurate gadget which is programmed for a specific purpose. It can interfere and hit the emotional side in the human brain, and deletes and adds up what is required from it!

- And the annoying dreams are imagination imagined during the execution of the gadget's program.

She nodded her agreement!

Yes, after every night I liked to work with them more, and I also hated Earth more and that must have happened to the rest of the scientists and made them belong to them and forget Earth!

- That much you are criminals, you commit another crime, you are killers in the universe and your race must be annihilated.

- Calm down please, it is very hard to annihilate us. They do more than this if necessary. They can melt your nervous system in a moment if they want. They are strong, but we can do something to draw these ungrateful people to something.

- You say we can do! you mean we cooperate?!

"Fertmeria" smiled quietly dreamily smile and looked at me and said:

- To prove for these people that there is a new science in the universe which has been there since the beginning of existence and will be there for ever, and it is worth studying and research. This science is: "The science of love"!

- The science of love!

- It is still the only unknown science to these materialistic people, and they do not know how much it is important at all. It can perform miracles.

- I feel that you are going to risk a great thing, may be your life!

- I will pay it as a price for establishing "The science of love" on the surface of planet "Mitsu"!

- Disloyalty to your race has the penalty of execution as you know.

- To reveal a great thing there must be sacrifice.

- What are you going to do?

She said decisively:

- I will try to get you back to your mother Earth. I will pave the way to take a space ship to take you to Earth, and by studying this event and the motive that made me do so they will find out that there is something called emotion which is as strong at the effect of a nuclear explosion!

These words were a sweet balm for which I lived all this time. So the hope of going back seemed attractive and bright. It was like a sweet waterfall that suddenly revived my love for Earth which was dying or rather at the point of death.

- But you have to cooperate with me and be patient, and note that this is a big risk which may get you killed too they do not have mercy upon those who betray them.

- I agree, I agree very much.

And I whispered to myself, for the sake of going back torture will be easy thing, and for the sake of going back blood may stop flowing in the blood vessels!

CHAPTER 8 OF 10

Is this girl crazy? She knows that betraying - or even trying to betray - her race has the penalty of execution. And if they have mercy upon her this execution will be instantly and not slowly. However, she will betray them for my sake, or for the sake of a certain principle for which she wants to die. She wants to draw her people's attention to the emotions which have died for thousands of years, the emotions which were killed by their scientific progress. Science is the father of logic, and emotions do not comply with any logic. Therefore they must die in the world of scientific progress - and this will exactly take place on Earth. Therefore "Mitsuians" have dead emotion, which is embedded, buried in their depths "Fertmeria" wants to revive it and bring it back to their life. This emotion is stronger than nuclear explosion as she says, and it is like any science needing care and study!

But could a love relationship develop between two of deferent races?!. Why not, they are living beings, and all the living beings come from a single source as science tells as they have the same structure. And they have the same desires, although they are different in the details of performance, but the essence is common and single. So there may be love between a "Mitsuian" and a man. And I saw there that marriage happened between a "Mitsuian" woman and an individual of the advanced race of "Tonatwa". And marriage always symbolizes spiritual harmony, and love .. Oh my God .. "Fertmeria" loves me?! no .. no .. she does not love me myself. She loves the lofty idea itself. She loves love as the highest emotion creatures may have, and in her coming experience she will sacrifice herself for the sake of the birth of the science of love of the whole existence and not a certain self. How genius!

+++ +++ +++

In room No. 2515 in the building of the center of "space pick up researches" I sat waiting for her, and on time she came, and entered very noiselessly like all the inhabitants of this planet, and she sat in front of a set of strange scientific apparatuses!. And smiled her nicely and quietly smile, I smiled at her and said:

- I will owe you my life if I reach Earth.

The quiet smile still covers her face without reply.

I said:

- I know that you have a principle. I know also that you will be immortalized in the life of the "Mitsuian".

I caught sight of a persistence look suddenly revealed in her eyes and she said:

- I will present to the "Mitsuians" an experience to remember.

I said curiously:

- I .. I want to know your story.

"Fertmeria" sighed and leant her back backwards, and looked with her blue eyes through the circular window at an invisible distant goal and seemed as if she were remembering many events and said:

- Since my childhood I have asked a question that was not asked by anyone of my people before which is: Why are we living? and I find their answer is to surpass and beat the "Pominu" race, whom we have been fighting for hundreds of years. But this answer did not satisfy me. I felt that there were great meanings behind everything. I felt that there was a great goal behind everything existing. There is nothing that is meaningless. Why are we trying to discover and master universe? let us first discover and master ourselves. I always felt that selves are pure, transparent, wide within, and I also left there is a close correlation between all the creatures in the universe. All the universal races we have discovered come from the same origin, and they must be correlated and embraced for ever, and there must be a good relation among all the races and the universe itself. We all make up an integrated arrangement of endless beauty, called universe!

And she sighed again and said:

- My ideas were hitting each other and mixing confusedly. And I did not know how to start my thinking? or how to finish it?. But I felt that there is one single and definite thing for which I was looking, it could if I discover it turn what is blazing myself into an understood and tangible thought, or may a science.

She paused for a moment and said:

- Until I met him and sat with him!

I asked her impatiently:

- Who is he?

- "Beethoven", your brother, the great Earth musician who comes from a world that is familiar with love. And after having a chat with him I do not forget I found what I was looking for! I know that the thing that connects this whole universe is: Love .. "Beethoven" told me that:

- "Music comes out from the self, and there is no music in the world comes out from the self can be bad, all of them are sweet, every man intending to compose a tune that comes out from his depths must produce a sweet tune. Should all the people be honest in the tunes then their melodies would be extremely sweet".

Then, selves are which extremely sweet. Therefore the self sees everything existing in the universe sweetly as it does not know ugliness. The whole universe is a huge song of beauty. This beauty, this cheerfulness, this delight which we feel when we look at these things existing, "Beethoven" called it: Love ..

Then love is everything in the universe, and it addresses the selves from which it comes. Therefore it motivates them to every good deed and everything that is beautiful.

And self persistence to present all good deeds is strong since it does not accept anything else. Then love is a horrible power inside selves which is stronger than nuclear explosion.

- Your speech is extremely sweet "Fertmeria".

- This is not my speech, it is the speech of the great musician who comes from your planet, but it used to be within me, reacting in each cell of my body's moment by moment but I could not express it!

- Then you discovered what "Beethoven" discovered also.

She took a deep breath and she was still smiling sweetly and said:

- This is true; we all have the same self, similar, and not just you and us, but all the other universal races. Our origin must be the same, and we were brought into existence by one who has no partners.

My face turned very yellow, and I murmured to myself with a word that she could not understand as they have no translation for it in their language and I said:

- He is God!

"Fertmeria" seemed to be surprise she heard a strange word which she has never heard before and she could not understand what it means!!

She grasped my hands and pressed them firmly saying:

- You are my only chance that I have been waiting for a long time to establish "The Science of Love".

Her tones of speech were impressing and attractive, so I pressed her hands in turn then we were two wills insisting on presenting a new action, and as their national anthem says: salutation to the living will in its persistence in presenting the new, whatever strange it may be!!

+++ +++ +++

"Fertmeria" explained to me the plan which she made to make me get back to Earth. She said that she would pave the way for me to reach "The Universal Launching Base". Then I get into a universal ship. And she explained to me how could I operate it, a tall red arm would be in front of me, I should open a small drawer in front of me so that I may find a large number of metallic boards, on each board there is a program to take the ship to a certain planet. And I would examine each board by placing it in an apparatus on this drawer to reveal the name of the planet on its screen at once should the program of this board used.

And this operation takes a long time, and I have to carry out this stage quietly and cautiously lest I should do something wrong, I might reach another planet other than Earth if I used another board! And when I find the board that would take me to Earth I should put it in an opening in a near by apparatus then I sit on the chair in the ship, and fasten a board belt around my waist, and pull the red arm, and afterwards every thing will be done automatically till I reach Earth.

But before doing all this, there is something very important that must take place. Which is radio communication with Earth, because the people of the Earth have not yet reaches the scientific method that adapts my time on "Mitsu" to the time of the Earth again, as when I was kidnapped to "Mitsu" they changed my time to adapt to the time of "Mitsu", and had not they done so I would not have lived such a period on "Mitsu" and to explain what this means I say:

The beginning of life on Earth was a natural result of a certain stage through which Earth passed where the conditions of its beginning were satisfied. And life developed due the change of the outer circumstances surrounding the living being. And when these circumstances differ the structure and formation of the being differ accordingly. All this made the being closely connected to the medium; medium is the independent variable while the being is the dependent variable. This correlation produces a harmony and arrangement between the outer events and the being itself, as this definite routine in changing the events outside the being is reflected directly on the routine of carrying out the internal operations within him!. That means that there is a certain monotonous time inside the being lives on Earth and which matches the routine or these events. This time is unlike the time of life on another planet, because the events take place differently on this planet!

And what happened to me when I got to "Mitsu" was that they have adapted my "own" time which belongs to Earth to the time of their planet. Therefore I was able to live there. And this is called "Time Matching" operation and it is a surgical operation carried out on the brain!

And then I get back to Earth this operation must be done again immediately to adapt my internal time to the time of the Earth, unless this is done I can not live for long on Earth!

Therefore it had to radio communicate with Earth to inform the scientists of this critical operation!

"Fermeria" has prepared everything.

She goes to room No. 67 in the building of "Astronomical Communications" one a month, to deliver a number of scientific reports made by the "space pick up" scientists to a "Mitsuian" operator who is in charge of astronomical communication from this room with other various advanced universal races and sends these reports to them by radio. This happens continuously and periodically according the convention of scientific exchange between them and these races.

And when she goes next time to this room I will be with her, and we will enter this room together. Then we will kill this operator manually as all the arms are detected by the gadgets, and "Fertmeria" will carry out the rest of the task as she will extract the archives on which there are the different waves vibrations lengths which must be used to communicate with each universal race, and look for the wave length of the Earth, and tune the communication device to it, and talk.

Then after that we get out as soon as possible and fly the flying capsule to "the universal launching base", and land in front of a ship and then we separate as I would climb up the ship and she would wait for them to come and arrest her before hundreds of shooting lenses which would record a strange event which has never been witnessed by the "Mitsuian" race along his history!

There were 20 days left before carrying out such a dangerous adventure. I rushed the passage of days, everything has become dull and boring to me .. my life has become out of joy, and I know I am going to do something that may kill me, and it is too cheap for me. I just want to tell the people of the Earth about my experience, to know something they have never known before. My life is cheaper then this goal, it is a mission I must fulfill and sacrifice for, for the future of every child living there in the distant world in our beloved galaxy and on the face of our beloved planet.

During these days I did not sleep in my bed at all and I did not use the cushion to put my head on. This damned bed is the grave of my love for Earth. I slept far from it and what a sweet sleep this time. The horrible dreams - which used to portray Earth to me as a damned home full of problems, wars and fires and make Earth scientists convince me of staying - have changed into rosy childish dreams. I used to be like a young baby dreaming. I used to see myself like a child seeing my mother in the distance and I run to her and throw myself in her merciful safe arms. The mother is Earth, and here I am coming to you mother, so take me in your arms, and hold me to your chest, and warm me, and out of our mutual precious love I will kiss your dust my Earth, my planet, my father, my mother!

I wished to sleep as long as the men of the cave to enjoy the sweetness of meeting, but the morning would come, and dreams would die out, and I find myself still above, with them, seven million light years away from my mother!

Days passed slowly deadly, till the expected day.

+++ +++ +++

In the famous "Dotum" forest we met, and we embraced warmly and eagerly. I am her way to immortality and she is my way to my planet. And the two wills coincided and embraces. She got into the flying capsule gracefully, and she pressed the buttons very actively so we flew, and with great insistence we went to the yard of "Astronomical Communications" building, and landed, and we entered with calculated steps, and with confidence and strong will we made our way to room No. 67.

She held the reports in her hand.

She placed a small gadget that translated "Mitsuian" language into Arabic language in a hidden pocket.

Within moments, we were in the room, alone with the "Mitsuian". We looked at each other, and through this look we had a silent talk.

She: Are you ready?

I: Yes I am ..

- Now?

- Now.

In a very fast moment "Fertmeria" turned around the "Mitsuian" and gave him a sharp blow on his head with her fist. He was thrown at me violently, and then I gave him another sharp blow with my hands on his neck, and gave him a strong punch in his face that made him fall to the ground. Then the girl took a small gadget and hit him with it on his head exceptionally violently and strongly, and she did not leave him until he had become totally still and bathed in a lake of "red" blood.

And eyes having fear sights are met again and had the silent talk again.

I: He had died!

She: Certainly!

- We have killed him.

- We have killed for the sake of love.

- !!!

- I told you that for the emergence of a great thing there must be sacrifice!

The looks dispersed, and with steel nerves she set about working. She looks at a huge book written in their language, and she leafed through it quickly and confusedly. The pages still and she pointed with her finger at what she was looking for.

She jumped to the astronomical communication apparatus, and very actively she set about working with buttons. She pressed a button, and another one, and another one, and another one, suddenly the apparatus makes an intermittent whistle, the wave has been turned in, and she put a paper in front of her, and she took the small apparatus out of her pocket and put near a microphone, and she talking impatiently:

- This is planet "Mitsu", are you hear me ..

I do not forget this moment at all, the room was filled with a human voice coming from Earth, saying:

- What a surprise, it is a message from rational beings in the heaven!

They have reaches a method for instantaneous conversation through vast distances in the universe. Sound waves are now traveling at a speed that is millions of times higher than the speed of sound!

I was as if standing at the doors of paradise, when I saw "Fertmeria" starting to talk, and shout:

- There is no time, here is the civilization of planet "Mitsu". The Earth scientist "Aref" is kidnapped here, and he is going back to you. You have got to adopt his time, and here is the way to do so. She looks at the paper, "a thin wire of Nickel, to be placed in the lower part of the pineal gland at the bottom of the brain, and turn .....

Before completing the horrible disaster took place,

All of a sudden, the door of the room opened violently, and a large number of "Mitsuians" got in and surrounded us as well as the body which was bathed in blood, and their faces were blazing with fury and revenge!!

It is an unquestionable dearth.

CHAPTER 9 OF 10

"Fertmeria" was sentenced to instant death.

And I was sentenced to slow death.

You may say that slow death is easier and less painful than instant death. But the truth is that it is entirely more horrible. It is one thousand times death, a million times, a hundred million times, I will describe slow death to you.

It is solitude, remoteness, separation, forsaking everything which motivates the senses. You find yourself still motionless and not affected nor reacting with any things, every things is silent still motionless dead around you. So you will find nothing to motivate you, nor will you find anything to prove your existence.

You feel that you are nonexistence, death, nil, everything around you is motionless and consequently your senses do not move and you are no longer an effective living matter. Rather you are just a living place in which vital operations take place only, it is doom.

Only ideas survive, as well as obsessions, solitude, loneliness, darkness and silence make the mind made strange. Imaginations and fancies are released to prove your existence. They make you see the existence as if it were a monster, or a murderer, or emptiness, or anything else that makes your body shiver and burn. So you find yourself powerless quickly and collapse quickly. You are in a state of "Sensual Deprivation" in terms of "Psychology". And as every moment passes you feel death creeping coming, coming horribly slowly, and it will inevitably reach. Hence death sentence will have been executed, would that it was an instant death sentence!

They took me, dear reader, in a flying capsule to a remote place which I had not seen before on "Mitsu", it is the north pole of the planet, where white ice accumulates forming hills and mountains. And in such dismal silence and frightful solitude, they landed, and they set up a tent for me which was also white. They put in it foodstuffs that suffice me for ten days. They also put coverings and suitable fur to protect from cold, and they left me and flew, and they were sure that when they come ten days later they will bury my dead body!

I became alone. Everything is white, the cold is severe but my thick clothes protect me from it. I headed for food, I ate, then looked around me. Every things is dead, no movement, no sound, I only heard my breathing sounds. and I felt my heart beating.

A day passed like a very long age. I lived all its moments, and darkness fell, it is a change, but it is for the worse. Deadly obsessions began to come on my mind. They are like sharp knives stabbing me moment by moment. It is death at every moment!

I felt that I am alone in this universe, or as if I were nonexistent in this universe, and my thought is the existing thing, as for my body, I did not feel it. I am the only one here, my thought is the only here, and this knoll revealed by its dark gray color in such blackness is a living being that looks at me, and sees me, it is a frightening monster like mythical monsters. I burst into tear, I yelled to hear my voice and feel that I am existing. I was on the brink of sheer folly, and I knew well that I would not endure one day longer at all!

However, in this solitude and silence I felt that I was not alone as I had thought, there is someone who sees me, and knows what I am suffering. Maybe it is the "Mitsuians", no, I feel that whoever sees me is kind to me, it is a beautiful thing. I yelled:

- Please save me, save me.

I lay down on my back and looked at the sky. I do not why here I recollected the lofty words of the grand scientist "Newton" speaking about God, I heard them again clearly within myself ..

"God is the great solid fact that can not be doubted, or even argued about its existence".

He is God, yes .. He who sees me. He has mercy on me now. He is merciful, and he will save me. O my God, creator of the existence, I am suffering, burning, have mercy on me. I had not committed a sin that deserves all this punishment. I invented something that benefits all people, why should I suffer that much?

Words came out hot of the depths of me at this memorable moment. I believed in God and his existence and his greatness. He is the creator, maker, the first and the last in this universe, and whose justice and wisdom prevailed in the whole universe. [4]

I found out why I had suffered that much? God had tortured me because I was atheist. I denied his existence, therefore he severely punished me.

I heard the words of "Newton" again saying:

"He is the lofty meanings. He is good, right, truth, honesty, kindness, justice, tolerance, and ..." Yes, he is every beautiful thing; all these qualities belong to God. The whole of these qualities is called God, and they are worthy of sanctification and worship.

Justice does exist therefore it must interfere and save me, because I am a good man. I have believed in the existence of these high qualities and I will worship them from now on. Therefore justice must save me, it is the only power capable of saving me from whatever I am suffering, and may be it happens!

I felt very safe, and I had a delightful self calmness after bitter anxiety and with tranquility and clarify and devoted pure soul I prostrated on the ground glorifying justice and all other good qualities which are God.

Remission seems to have happened, and as if God forgave, and heaven responded to the prayer, then the miracle was performed.

+++ +++ +++

I raised my face upwards and I saw the rescue.

It is a flying capsule hovering over the place. Good heaven, why did it come? It has "Mitsuians" inside it, did they come to give me food?!, it is not reasonable, only one day passed. Its arrival was unexpectedly bizarre.

The capsule flies as if it were looking for something. It must be looking for me, then the ones coming by it do not know my place, so he is one of the "Mitsuians" who had not got me here, good heaven, there is someone who wants to rescue me, a "Metsuian" has come to rescue me. It is heaven that responded, and it wrote a new age for me, so come in my arms o mercy.

I waved with my both hands and yelled, and shouted, but everything is white. They would not see me, and they would not see my tent either, what can I do, I have to do something, a different color must be there to make them see me, but those wicked people made everything placed white for me.

I yelled so strong that my vocal cards were about to tear, and hence the idea had came, my hair is black. I took off my head covering at once and I felt severe shiver cold biting me, but I ran and I went around, and I thought of the happy moment when those inside the capsule see a bewildered black spot expressing its existence.

The happy moment came, and the capsule approached me, and landed before me, and its door opened, a handsome "Mitsuian" young man landed holding the hand of a beautiful "Mitsuian" young woman. They both smiled and approached me.

Cheerful looks met.

The young man said:

- We have come to rescue you.

The young woman said:

- We had searched the whole South Pole for you but we did not find you so we came here and looked for you thoroughly and at last we found you.

I was very happy to hear these words, and I said:

- Why do you do that?

The young man said:

- We heard that a new science called "Science of Love" [5] was developed on our planet. Late "Fertmeria" had been its exponent for it on TV before she was executed. We needed this science to account for us "Mima" and me this ambiguous thing between us.

"Mima" while looking at the young man said:

- I had something strange when I saw "Ulo" and talked to him. It is an unique feeling, immaculate and beautiful, it is a great relief, or strong harmony. I could not account for this thoroughly, there is nothing in our sciences that explains these ambiguous meanings. Until I saw "Fertmeria" on TV yelling and shouting, there are things called emotions, there are things called feelings, there is a remarkable great science called "Love".

"Ulo" said smilingly:

- "Fermeria" 's words were the clue to interpret this ambiguity within ourselves.

"Mima" said:

- And finally we found out that what is between us is a form of love's various forms.

"Ulo" said:

- We were not the only ones who discovered that, there are many other "Mitsuian" discovered that too, there is an overwhelming revolution spreading all over our planet calling for returning to the pure primitive life which addresses selves before addresses brains.

"Fertmeria" has done it. She is an intelligent commando she sacrificed herself because of a principle, and her expectations were correct. "Mitsuians" will not leave this event pass without studying, and by studying it they will discover "The Science of Love" and kindness and harmony among all races!

"Mima" said:

- "Ulo" and I have decided to make other sacrifice for the sake of developing "The Science of Love". This sacrifice is our lives, we are going to rescue you now, and complete what "Fertmeria" had started, and get you back to your planet, we shall also be sentenced to death because of doing so. So we shall be the second and the third who sacrifice his life because of a principle, and this is an exciting thing.

"Ulo" said:

- We will call again for noting and looking and searching within ourselves after we had been tired of studying arid non-living materials, and hence real peace will prevail on our planet.

The young man sighed then he said:

- There is no time, we have to work immediately, come on, climb up to the capsule quickly.

I jumped into the capsule, and the young man and young woman entered. We had driven into sky smoothly. Everything around me was carried out amazingly systematically like a planned scheme, and I heaved a sigh of relief I was reborn and I had a narrow escape, but I wish the whole thing would complete and leave this strange world.

"Ulo" drove like a butterfly towards a fixed target which he knows well, "Universal Launching Base". "Mima" sat next to him, heavy minutes passed and they used to kiss each other stealthy from time to time and other long minutes passed before "Ulo" changed his course suddenly to another way which seemed to be chosen by him at this moment and he said:

- I will show you something you will never forget for the rest of your life.

The capsule continued flying at a high speed before it slowed down and hovered in air. We were about to reach the city.

"Ulo" and "Mima" said simultaneously:

- Look!

Through the circular window next to me I looked and I caught a frighten sight which shakes bodies.

A huge colossal gray hand of a "Mitsuian" resting on a colossal base and its forefinger points upwards, to the sky, the colossal hand was built of stones or marble.

My face showed amazement while I was looking at this colossal statue and I heard "Ulo" saying:

- This is a memorial to "Fertmeria". Our young people built it to honor and commemorate her in one day - with a scientific method that you do not know yet - and they had buried the dead body of the young woman under it!

The memorial looked unique and frightening at the same time. The forefinger pointed upwards, to the universe, to the middle of the universe. It points to our planet, where "Fertmeria" had scarified for, where love exists.

"Mima" said:

- "Fertmeria" recommended that her grave would be built this way.

"Ulo" drove around and flew away from the frighten memorial, and he came back again on course towards our target. The hand was diverging and getting smaller gradually until it was completely out of sight and I whispered to myself: Farewell "Fertmeria" and we might meet again in another unknown world!!

+++ +++ +++

The distance between the north pole and the city was big, but we arrived at last. "Ulo" entered the sky of the city with hundreds of other flying capsules with which "Mitsuians" move from place to place on their planet. It was day time. We waited until darkness fell. "Ulo" drove away from the crowd in the direction of "The Universal Launching Base" and when we arrived he turned off the lights of the capsule totally, and while I was upwards I saw tens of universal ships resting in darkness lit by depressed faint lights.

My heart started beating loudly while "Mima" and "Ulo" explained to me what I will do exactly. I will get out of the capsule as soon as it lands quickly and head for the universal ship and climb up its steps, and open the door - and it will open irresistibly - and as soon as I get in I will let a red arm be in front of me, and .. and then I gestured to them with my hand to stop and said to them:

- The immortal "Fertmeria" has told me what do after that.

"Ulo" sneaked cautiously quiet, and he landed noiselessly before the universal ship. The two young people looked at me, and "Ulo" whispered:

- Come on ..

I opened the door of the capsule quickly while I heard "Mima" whisper saying:

- Farewell "Aref" we will dying in a short while!!

I ran towards the ship and climbed up the steps and opened its door quickly. I go into and closed the door behind me. I looked through a small window then I saw the phantom of the two lovers' capsule flying away quietly and in frightful silent.

I recollected "Fertmeria's" talk the red arm is here before me. I open a small drawer before me, here is the drawer, I opened it. It has a large group of metal plates. I have to take them one by one and place it in this near apparatus, till the name of "Earth" appears on the screen. I should start working immediately, this stage takes time. Here is the first plate which I placed in the apparatus, Good Heaven, it leads to planet "Cromma" of "Tenya" galaxy!, and this second plate, planet "Plabto" of "Madonnia" galaxy!, and the third plate, and the fourth, five minutes approximately passed, the fifth plate, the sixth.

Suddenly, I heard a boom of a huge explosion that shook the universal ship strongly. I looked through the window and I found a burning huge fiery mass hanging in the sky. Good heaven, it is the capsule of "Ulo" and "Mima". They discovered the treason. They are certainly coming and they will arrest me, and inheritable it will be the end this time.

I felt the moment of death, it is a horrible moment, at it I was on the border between life and death, and in amoment or little moments I will move from this one to the other, to an unknown world, the world of after life. Is it death coming?. My eyes were wide - open so much while I saw through the window tens of "Mitsuians" heading for the ship holding some sort of weapons in their hands, here is death coming.

But at these moments man has strange abilities to show. He does amazing things which he can not do at all at other moments than these deadly moments. My fingers headed for a metal plate by natural motive and placed it at once in the apparatus, and wonderful words were displayed before me, the screen read: "Earth" of "The Milky Way" galaxy!. It is the way of salvation. The extrasensory perception dears does exist and appears at the moments of distress and danger, and amazingly automatically and naturally I moved the plate from this apparatus to the other one, and grasped the red arm, and pulled it. I felt a violent shake in the vehicle, the vehicle went upwards, I saw the "Mitsuians" firing directly at me, but I was not hurt, and I was astonished for that. I looked at my left hand, its thumb presses a circular blue button, it is the safety button against these fires!!

CHAPTER 10 OF 10

The space ship flew slowly and calmly. I sat on the chair of the ship, and fastened the broad belt. I felt a shiver coming out of it and spreading over my body. I breathed deeply, and left myself to whatever the program of the ship may do.

I felt that the ship speed up. I looked through the window then I found planet "Mitsu" in the distance, it is spherical blue as well as totally like Earth in space, the ship sped up more .. and more .. I felt that I am driving at a remarkable speed, Good Heaven; I am approaching the speed of light, what a remarkable speed. I feel as if my body were weightless. I feel that it is tear painlessly, and a violent pull of my interior as if my soul were removed.

I looked at the speedometer before me, velocity exceeded 300 thousands km per second. I am flying at a speed greater than that of light, and hence time is meaningless and matter does not exist, it vanished, I do not see it any more, it is out of my sight, or my sight may have gone, I no longer see anything, I just feel that I exist and I am a spirit, and only thoughts remain, wandering ..

And even these thoughts began to vanish, gradually.. gradually.. gradually.. and then I no longer remember what happened after that. I have lost consciousness.

I did not know exactly how long it took until I opened my eyes and look around me to find myself still in the space ship. But I was surprised that the clock hung before me denoted that only 12 hours passed - according to "Mitsu's" timing - I looked through the window and I saw a memorable scene, wonderful, it is Earth!

The blue water of the ocean seemed like a kind compassionate carpet, and as moments pass I approach it. I felt that Earth opened its arms to taking me. Moments I approached the water closely, until it embraced me yearningly.

I swear that at this moment I heard the gadget which was still inside my ears translating "Mitsuian" words saying: "He has reached Earth"!!

+++ +++ +++

The ship went into water quickly until it came to a stop, then it began to ascend slowly, moments passed before I could see the blue sky through the window.

I opened the door of the ship, and looked around, it is the ocean, it is Earth, and I can not describe the hysterical state that came over me at this moment whereas words fail to describe, or there are no words can sufficient this description. I just can say that tears flowing out of my eyes were about as much as the water of this ocean!

Moments that can not be described passed until I came to my senses because of a sound of an engine, and in the distance I found a rescue ship coming, the ship came closer, and on its board I saw tens of "Human" scientists, and many photographers, and the ship closer till it touched the space ship, and tens of hands stretched out to hold me again with the same yearning on board of the rescue ship.

One of the scientists yelled:

- We have been waiting for your arrival for nine months.

Another scientist interrupted him saying:

- Since we received the most unusual message in the history of humanity, our devices have picked up an automatic sound coming from the universe saying you are coming to us.

A third scientist said calmly:

- Now we have actually made sure that there are intelligent creatures in the sky.

I smiled to everyone and said:

- What you do not know is greater.

+++ +++ +++

In a meeting attended by 30 of the greatest scientists of Earth I told my story since I developed the discovery until my return to Earth. The faces of all the scientists showed amazement while they listened to me, until I finished, then Mr. "Philip" the chairman of the meeting said to me:

- Welcome once more on the surface of your planet you are the first man to be born twice!

Then he sighed and breathed deeply and said:

- Now you have to know what happened during the period of your absence, firstly, you have been away from Earth for 47 years, you know that each day passes on this planet is equivalent to 100 days on Earth, and you stayed on "Mitsu" for exactly 171 days which are about 47 Earth years. But you have lived only for the 171 days, which means that your age increased about half a year whereas all your peers on Earth their ages increased 47 years! this is from wonders of the space's world!

Then he paused a while and said:

- And in fact you have been said to be dead and we have not anything about you, until we received the universal message. It told us that you are on planet "Mitsu", and you are coming to us. So we were very ready to meet you, till our radars picked up an unidentified objects falling or landing coming from the depths of the universe, and we knew that it is a universal ship and you may be inside it, and actually our thoughts were correct.

And I asked the grand scientist "Philip" while I had warm memories:

- And how did you hear the message of "Fertmeria"?

- We have placed devices for tens of years which are capable of receiving any sound waves emanating from the universe, either sounds of universal explosions or voices of intelligent creatures!

- And which country received this message?

The grand scientist smiled and said quietly:

- The former "United States of America"!! Dear "Aref", an international unity has taken place!!

I curtailed which are between my eyebrows and asked impatiently:

- How?

- After we had received the first universal message coming from intelligent creatures trying to teach us something we ignore, a peerless thinking confusion took place during the whole last year. The whole world felt frightened and horrified. The shadow of a deadly frightening danger appeared to us coming from those who are much more advanced. So all the people slept intending to have only one thing must be happen. They agreed to unite and cooperate and support in one league, one, against that unknown.

Then he paused for a moment and said:

- All people discovered in a moment how closely they are correlated with one another, and man regretted murdering and stealing his fellow - man, therefore the way to remove all these sins was union.

And some countries thought of bargaining with these creatures so as not to announce their existence before the whole world to keep the strength of the strong and the weakness of the weak. But the news of the astronomical communication spread and the whole world knew it. So millions of people in all the cities of the world demonstrated violently to demand unity. The youth yelled, and girls committed suicide, for the sake of unity, and for the sake of removing these backward imaginary lines which separate an area from another area and classify the world into developed countries and underdeveloped ones. And the will of the people always wins. Unity was imposed upon those who fought it, and everybody embraced and correlated for the first time in history!

The speech of Mr. "Philip" was exciting, at last an international unity took place, at last man felt of the crimes he commits every day against his fellowman, at last all people felt that they belong to a singly race and a single origin and a single source and birth and that they are all brothers no difference between man and another.

This unity would not have happened unless man had discovered another force worthy of his fires and competition and challenge. The right is to have his fellow-men as brothers and make the other race enemies though they may be peaceful! but it is always the instinct of war!

+++ +++ +++

I asked to write my memoirs ..

So I went to Egypt, my house collapsed twenty years ago. So I stayed at "Mena House" hotel which overlooks the "Giza" Pyramids, and in my room I wrote my memoirs. The lofty pyramids faced me with their dignity. I know that they have a base here on the plateau of the pyramids, Good Heaven, I feel that I am being watched by thousands of eyes!

There is something else unusual I feel, my inner time is inconsistent with the Earth's. The days of Earth is too short, it equals one part out of a hundred parts of the day of "Mitsu" with which I am compatible. So a day is short moments for me. But I will be patient as I may be adjusted automatically to the time of my planet.

But I feel that death will be faster, the long time which I lived is enough. You say that I have lived there for 47 years only, No .. To me it is 1000 years life. So death is coming, may be after one day or two days of the Earth's. Therefore I write quickly and recommend to be buried in a grave like that which belongs to the immortal "Fertmeria", in the form of a huge human hand whose forefinger points to the sky, or to planet "Mitsu", or to the forefinger of her dignified grave, which points in turn to me, and thus and forever as a symbol of faithfulness. Faithfulness in the middle of all this materialistic arrogance!

I looked at lofty pyramids,

Recollected the memoirs,

And I murmured a message that I brought with me from there,

From the homeland of science and progress,

A heavenly message which is a slogan of people who opened heavens,

Salutation to work ..
to creativity ..
to the fresh new experience ..
to the living will in its persistence in presenting the new .. Whatever strange it may be ..

Thanks

Aref Amer

On the following day the memoirs were found beside a dead body, and after carrying out a postmortem of the body it was found to be free from the nervous system!!
