Weary Loube Section 1 Chapter 5

Chapter 5

Sid, Max, Izzy, Diego, Robert, Lucee, Ashay and Dredona looked at the screen.  In front of them was over 1 million messages sent from the past during the 50-year intervals that Triunfeo and M appeared on earth.  Messages ranged from people screaming in lunacy about Triunfeo and M leaving in a rocket and everyone in a state of mania as they depart.  

There were videos of Triunfeo and M disappearing on the rocket and people crowded around with one man saying “What is going on?  I feel my memory slipping, wait… Yes! Triunfeo and M just announced to Markaedium that we would be forgetting everything soon.”  

There was another video of Triunfeo and M addressing the masses, “And through your faith in Giestian, lies your freedom.  We will be departing out of the planet for another 450 years and you will have no recollection of what happened.”

 Another video of a woman screaming into the camera, “We have been deceived! Please see this and remember, they had appeared about fifty years ago and are some types of alien beings that come to the earth to swindle our system!  I feel my memory fading as we speak.”  

“It’s like a collective amnesia” Sid remarks, “This is 460 years ago?”  

“Yes” Dredona responds.  “Let’s go backwards.”  They went all the way back and the only thing that changed was Markaedium was less advanced and developed but ultimately the messages stopped around the time when Markaedium developed computers and data collection technology.  

“This is so strange,” Sid begins, “It looks like them as well, like they haven’t aged one bit in 450 years.  They must have some type of immortality elixir.  If it goes back all the way to Giestian, I wonder if anything has to do with Giestian, or if we aren’t understanding everything that is happening through our history textbooks.”  

Dredona nods and says, “Yes, this data is wiped on the regular internet, I must have been able to access it with the Binary Lucy Disk or if they wipe these events every 500 years, the Binary Lucy Disk was able to pick up the data.”  

“Lucky, we have you.” Sid responds and then his expression turns stern.  “Well, did we not look into it further, let’s go kill us some immortal aliens.” He says with anger still quivering through him.  

“They are much more dangerous than I fathomed” Dredona states, “I think we should still hold off for right now.”  

“Nonsense” Max chimes in.  Everyone murmurs and nod in agreement.  Dredona looks at all of them with a twinge of fear coursing through her and lets out a sigh.  “Alright, then we will begin formulating the plot.  I will write to Gord Rift requesting a conciliatory banquet for Triunfeo and M saying I have come to realize through my involvement with Addiction to Action, that this activism is silly and I am awakened to how much they care about and are doing for Markaedium and planet Terloub.”  

Sid smiles slightly and responds, “That’s perfect.  I will be the one who serves them the solarluna.  I really think this will work.” 

Izzy turns to everyone and says, “Okay, well Sid you had some rest and the immortals aren’t going anywhere, so why don’t we rest as well, and you can sift through this data we received and tell us if you find anything else?”  

Dredona yawns and says, “Yes Sid, I need some sleep.  If you want to use the binary lucy disk to research about Giestian as well.”  

Sid laughs and says, “Are we calling Triunfeo and M the immortals now?  It makes them sound like superheroes.”  They all laugh and Ashay says, “We will call them the Toxic Immortal Monopolizers.”  Lucee snorts and says, “Monopolizers isn’t even a word.”  

Ashay retorts with a giggle, “It is now.”   They all laugh and Dredona shows them to the sleeping rooms that consisted of art sculptures and hammocks with faux fur on the floors, couches and walls.
