‘Let’s dance,’ Debra said. I looked at Reeas, she held out her arms, as if to say, go ahead. How could I resist?

Later in the restroom Reeas said, ‘Are you sure about Debra being stable enough for the next job?’

‘Why? Has Zelda said something about the job?’ If I had been more conscious I would have known she hadn’t.

‘No, I mean when we next have a job.’

‘I am trying to stabilize her, or me, what else can I do?’

‘We could use an old type ship. She said.’

‘No!’ Debra shouted, as she appeared next to Reeas, I could see Reeas was shocked. Debra had heard, or rather, I had heard, and she being linked into my consciousness knew what I knew.

‘Please, Debra.’ Reeas said, ‘we are trying to have a conversation.’

‘No,’ Debra said, ‘you are trying to turn him against me.’

‘OK,’ I said, ‘time for a break. Debra, you know I want you, so just give me a little time with my wife.’

‘Yes, Dan, but I am here if you want me.’

‘Yes, I know, and I appreciate that.’

Zelda came into the room. Without talking she touched me behind the neck, I was now incapable of moving or even thinking!

For students: this part has been added by a coworker from the records section to relate to you. ‘We have to talk,’ said Zelda. ‘Let us please go into the isolation room.’ Once there, she said, ‘let us transfer into the inner worlds and then into the third main level.’ Reeas knew this was about Debra. (The third main level was a separation point to the higher mental or ethereal worlds’)

‘Now, we can access the first sub plane.

‘OK, team, we have a problem with Debra.’ Zelda said.

I was now feeling very light-headed.’

I had to put you into a mental block state, Dan, so we can access and reassess your mind.’

I couldn’t speak, but I could understand when she spoke, but not to anyone else. All I was conscious of was Zelda’s voice. Reeas by this time was talking to Zelda about the crisis that was Debra, the conversation went like this:

‘I feel worried about Dan,’ said Reeas.

‘Yes, I know,’ said Zelda, ‘the matter has got more serious than we thought, In effect, if Dan is not stabilized then Debra could create havoc; she could quite easily control the whole Guardian Network.’

‘Surely Dan wouldn’t let that happen.’

‘No, but don’t forget the subconscious, she knows whatever he knows, and vice versa.’

‘My God,’ said Reeas, this could be catastrophic!’

‘We might have to put Dan into isolation.’ Zelda said.

‘No!’ Reeas shouted!

‘I’m sorry, Reeas, we looked into the records to see what the outcome would be.’

‘Yes, but you know it can also work both ways?’

‘Yes, but we cannot take any chances.’

All I can remember is the voice of Zelda telling me, that I would be at rest for a while.
