Void Switch

Chapter 10: Graduation?

The sun and moon are in opposite sides of the earth. Half of earth is engulfed in darkness, with dark blue hues shaping North America, Mexico, South America. Attention is focused more on the moon. Many large metal domes are placed across its surface, like a dotted belt. Thick tunnels connect all the domes to one another. Another dome is placed in the center of the other bunkers. Inside the moon, a pyramid reaches from one side of the moons mantle to opposite side. Inside the pyramid we see the general getting stitched up. His face slightly flinches to an uncomfortable tug on his back. He is planning his next attack. He wants Erich badly, dead or alive. He sits in a chair in the center of a large high tech room. An upside down triangle stands about sixty yards away from him. It waves a venom like green color. Like the colors from a rainbow many, many triangles trace themselves out. Many men sit at stations that around his entire thrown. They all focus on finding Erich and his whereabouts. On earth Erich lies on a smooth rocky surface. Next to him lies his dead cousins. Erich is not dead but in a coma. The night skies are quiet, you can hear the trees dancing with the winds. Nira is still crying as she looks at her dead children. Sabrina walks up to each of bodies, still holding her suitcase. She puts her hand on Tanya's body, gently cupping her stomach. A sample of blood from her body infuses with Sabrina's hand. She shakes her head in as if dissapointed.

"Damn, so the siblings are no good." she says.

"We need to go now before they catch up again." says CG softly.

CG grabs everyone, dead and alive, and runs deeper into the forest. Sabrina looks to Nira feeling terrible. She knows everyone is dead because of her. She wants to apologize to her but cant. Moments switch to being inside Erichs mind. A tall man with long silver/white hair stands in front of the boy. The boy sits with his legs crossed and perfect posture. The sun lights his body to a lighter shade, caramel, bringing him full comfort. The tall man joins him. He peaks at the boy noticing similarities between them both. He goes back into his meditation. The tall man speaks softly to the boy.

"So you almost blew it didn't you?"

"Blew what? In fact I do not really know why you are here in my head." says Erich.

"Listen I am here because you summoned me. Only my family from where I come from can summon me, yet you can. Somehow you and I are connected. So deal with it. I don't want to be here either." says the tall God.

Erich looks at Rezzix, not really liking his tone. The boy then says,

"This power I never asked for. The only person I know that tried to help with my rage was CG; Even that was barely enough. I never asked for any of this. What the hell am I supposed to learn in this universe?"

"Erich I am trapped on an alien spaceship against my will. I ask myself the same questions. Why am I here? How did I let this happen? Why cant I figure this out? Just look at yourself. You are still here and fighting to find your purpose."

"I will always fight for goals. I know I am meant for something I just don't know what exactly."

Rezzix stands up facing the boy. He places his hand on top of the boys head.

"Erich you are a good kid. No matter what keep fighting. You are something fierce and amazing but you need to believe that you are. We are watching you little man."

Dark faint figures, six with different color auras, rise like shadows next to rezzix. He continues,

"We hope that someday you figure it out and realize your true potential. I might not like your mother but she has high faiths in you kid."

He turns his back to the boy and fades from view. Erich palms his face and drags them down his cheeks, partially stretching the skin around his eyes. He stands to his feet on an invisible floor. He looks to earth and focuses on his friends, CG, Rose, and his aunt. On earth his body twitches and CG's ears ring very loud.
