Devils Natural Logarithm

A Story by Abishai100

X-Files case-workers, assigned to a Cali-science center fashion-show 'linked' apparition-sighting, explore the possibility there's some hand-work by a non-human...or the Devil.

A fanfiction/adaptation of The X-Files (Fox-TV) featuring a graphic/cool reference to the very bizarre super-villain/menace Red-Goblin (Marvel Comics), which I think you'll like,

====

LIZ: This Cali-science institute fashion-show's drawn interest for cosmetics-IQ.

AMLAN: Why the hype/rumors of a soaring 'red-goblin' devil above the building(s)?

SHELBYE: Seems this X-Files case, assigned to us ,has prints of Chupacabra-type IQ.

LIZ: A 'devil' of bad message above a science-fashion show event for cosmetics-IQ?

AMLAN: Seems this 'red-goblin' offers a Western 'shake' for something religious.

SHELBYE: Maybe we're tracking some local 'paranoia' about marketing vanities.

LIZ: The social-media commentary in Cali for the goblin-sightings suggest terrorism.

AMLAN: Can't be 'strict' terrorism-superstition with just fashion/cosmetics myth.

SHELBYE: Yeah, terrorism directed against capitalism 'singularity' is too cliched!

LIZ: My hunch is that the cyber-comments for the Cali-event signals a real sighting.

AMLAN: Maybe it's the Devil himself, creating some street-fashion 'fear' for bad-IQ.

Well, our X-Files trip of investigator-heroes (Amlan and Liz and Shelbye) had been assigned to 'similar' Homeland hysteria/lore cases eluding the FBI and requiring a special 'private' form of mythology and sightings inquiry for incidents 'beyond' the reach/scale of everyday cases, as they'd pursued reports of Bermuda-Triangle terrorist-ships, supermarket 'phantom' sightings linked to serial-killings, and even an adult-media company rumored 'blood-diamond' conspiracy tied with some 'ancient' Masonry-rogue vampire-cult called the Order. This time around, the X-Files heroes (Amlan/Ezzy/Shelbye) were sent to a Cali (Western-American) science-center autumn fashion-show 'event' which coincided in plan-phases and building activity routines with bizarre sightings of a menacing 'red-devil' goblin-like soaring 'creature' of man-like shape hovering above the science-center building(s) with what appeared to be (autumn-symbolic) glowing fiery pumpkins (bombs?). Amlan decided this 'adversary' (were he real somehow) was some 'messenger' of the social subconscious of a post-9/11 era 'paranoia' about Homeland commerce/media life vanities 'troubles' or turbulence created by the terrorist-devastation of the exchange/business/life symbolic World Trade Center (NYC). Was this 'red-goblin' some new 'cosmetics' commerce anti-messenger of the Western-American 'sensitivity' to consumerism/fashion-life vanities for a psyche-fear...of 'alien' materialism?

WITNESS: The models were rehearsing a 'pre-theater' for the event when I saw it!

AMLAN: You saw this 'red-goblin' soaring around while the models were showcased?

LIZ: Yet, you 'doubt' this apparition had any relation to the event or was known?

SHELBYE: You're sure the 'sighting' coincided with a 'focus' on the science-building(s)?

WITNESS: I've no doubt about its menacing focus on the rehearsal-event.

AMLAN: What's your 'theory' (personal/private) about its message/purpose/agenda?

LIZ: We just want to know what the locals 'believe' about a fashion-goblin paranoia.

SHELBYE: Yeah, we're assuring you this psyche-turbulence may be capitalism in IQ.

WITNESS: No, no; this isn't some Cali-culture erection; that goblin may be the Devil!

AMLAN: Wow...good for social media (ok).

LIZ: Why don't you relax/unwind, and we'll arrange a private-therapist (testimony)?

SHELBYE: We'll handle the X-Files portion of this fashion-event turbulence for all.

WITNESS: Oh, thanx (good for social media).

The apparition was perhaps Lucifer, the fallen angel who rebelled against God's kingdom during that great 'war' in the heavens, as the mythology goes, and as Amlan busily/eagerly read-up on in that Cali-area's public-library, focusing on texts like the Bible, including the works of Milton/Dante. Why did the Devil want to create a psyche-subconscious paranoia-sighting(s) examination during the Cali fashion-event at the science-center? This was Amlan's fascination-inquiry, and he insisted to his X-Files partners that if this 'red-goblin' was not a mass-hysteria 'manifestation' of post-9/11 era Homeland 'invasion' (terrorism) paranoia induced hallucination(s), it just may've been some 'real' specter of messaging, but Liz/Shelbye insisted (now) Amlan keep his head/mind clear for such a (truly) wild hypothesis or Earth-superstition claim tied to some (potential) religious-heresy scaling (wow).

GOBLIN: I visit you in your dream-sleep, Amlan hero.

AMLAN: I can see you; I can sense I'm asleep/dreaming, and I can feel you're evil.

GOBLIN: I'm the Cali science-center fashion-show 'specter' sighted by witnesses!

AMLAN: Why're you visiting me for a private message, goblin?

GOBLIN: I want to see if you're an avid-fan of chess-acumen and intelligence-image.

AMLAN: I love chess; played as a kid; play recreationally online (sure), but what?

GOBLIN: I'm not just a mass-hysteria manifestation of the Western psyche, Amlan.

AMLAN: What...you're the Devil (Lucifer) himself I suppose!

GOBLIN: You said it, hero.

AMLAN: What's this?

GOBLIN: This is a chess examination for American confidence for cosmetics/fashion!

AMLAN: The Devil is a fashion-show terrorist for commerce/media-life vanities?

GOBLIN: Why not, Amlan...for isn't capitalism-race 'chess' governed by glass?

AMLAN: I suppose fashion (and bias) are capitalism's veil for personalized heat!

GOBLIN: I mean to provoke a Homeland 'ultra-consciousness' for cosmetics-omens.

AMLAN: Why're you revealing this (to me) in dream-sleep, goblin?

GOBLIN: Perhaps you'll conceive of me as Lucifer (the Devil) and inquire of chess.

AMLAN: I'll see what I 'believe' when I awake (about 'capitalism-fashion chess').

GOBLIN: Good (for social media).

Liz and Shelbye couldn't believe Amlan's claim for the X-Files report-notes, that he'd been 'visited' by that Cali science-center fashion-show/event 'apparition' (or specter!) sighted by multiple witnesses as the event neared in that autumn in the Homeland (America) of 'incomplete-distances' to traffic-securities for capitalism-race 'chess' confidence (hmm). Why'd the Devil make a cosmetics-paranoia for Cali-fashion marketing/media tied with a science-center's advocacy of enhanced (improved) chemistry for cosmetics sciences/development? Was this 'goblin' (if he/it was Lucifer or the Devil disguised/costumed somehow!) offering an omen about the 'acid' signature of capitalism's vanities for indulgences/lifestyle that deformed the West's sense of sharp-intelligence for rational decision-making (concerning materialism marketing)?

Amlan relaxed (somewhat) with a 'world-exchange' symbolic soft/zest (Indian) luchi-bread thanksgiving-diner plate culinary/hospitality chat(s) with Liz and Shelbye, his X-Files partners on this eerie-case, as he prepared his special capitalism-race 'chess' defense in 'retort' to the apparition-message he 'absorbed' while in dream-sleep, convinced he'd not (himself) given-in to varied commerce-culture subconscious psyche-paranoia about invasion/terrorism/insanity. Amlan sent a broad media-advocacy message reading, "If the Devil is the red-goblin sighted, ahead of the Cali science-center fashion-show 'event' for enhanced cosmetics education for the Homeland, perhaps the 'being' might agree we Americans have the hospitality-readings at hand/heart that fortify our capitalism's 'superstition' for what's (surely) a life-vanity for fortune...that of (simplified) Earth-leviathan."
