Blackout • NH

Chapter 57

I really hope my thoughts about this are right. If the aren't, we will all die. I need to get this group to Uninhabited, and fast.

I begin to dig into my backpack for some books I had taken from the library and never returned before the blackout occurred. I was getting a bit bored.

"Did dinosaurs really go extinct?" I quietly read the title.

I was not really interested in that. So I grabbed another book.

"Deadly Yellowstone." I said to myself.

A super volcano under the national park that could kill all of the North American continent if erupted. Well if that were to happen at least all the glazers would be dead there. I laughed to myself and I picked up another book.

"Mysterious Pyramids in the World." That seems interesting. I open the book ago a random page.

"Pyramids around the world were believed to mark certain areas of the sky at night. Making star reading easier." I read. Interesting.

"A 12 year old boy had discovered one pyramid deep in the jungle in South America using coordinates from currently known pyramids and the stars." That's pretty cool.

I continued skimming through the book when something caught my eye.

"Crystal pyramid below the Bermuda Triangle."

Never heard about that. I decided to read the page on it.

"Theories have suggest there is a huge crystal pyramid that lies below the Bermuda Triangle, it is believed to be the cause of many disappearances of boats and planes throughout the years. In 2012, scientists discovered an unusual structure under the surface of that area of the world while using some newly created technology."

I analyze the script I just read.

"This could explain the mysterious updraft in air causing waves to take out ships while winds knock down planes." I say to myself.

Suddenly I have the craziest thought.

"Jodie come here a second!" I shout.

She gets up and waddles her way over to me. Her belly prominently showing now. Making her look adorable when she does anything. Especially walking.

I smile to myself.

"Are you okay? What's with the creepy smile?" She asks.

"Nothing." I laugh to myself.

"Look at this and read it." I say pointing to the page, getting back into serious mode.

"Niall where are you getting with this?" Jodie asks as if she almost knows.

"Remember when you were healing me after the hurricane and you put both halves of the geode into me? Healing me?" I ask.

"Yes?" She says. Looking at me, waiting for what I have to say.

"The geode being a crystal. It was powerful enough to save a human life." I say.

"Um, yes?" She said, waving her hand for me to continue.

"If the crystal pyramid actually exists below the surface of the triangle. Who's to say the crystal in my body may actually have an effect on it. For example, the weather and natural occurrences becoming opposite of what they are. Like rain becoming dangerous while the triangle becoming harmless." I continue.

She doesn't say anything but looks at me.

"Holy shit Niall. You are a genius!" She shouts hugging me.

"I'm going to let the others know!" She says and heads to the group. I smile and continue watching the horizon as the sun has finally set. The moon lighting up the sky in front of me and the lightning from the storm lighting up the sky behind me

I smile, knowing that if I'm right. We may end up being in Uninhabited sooner than we expect.
