"The Bermuda Triangle vanishings numbered over 1,000 in one part of the greater triangle. Governments official refuted such claims while banning any travel through the area, going so far as patrolling around the area to stop any from entering it. The vanishings took place over some centuries and were most numerous just before the sector was quarantined. While vanishings continued, after that, they were far less frequent." Olivia Dunham was indicating the 3Dwallscreen showing data neatly organised into 3D boxes. "A convoy of three slaver ships, taking black Africans to the Americas, were the first recorded vanishings. That was in the early 19^th Century."

 

Peter Bishop, son of Walter Bishop, stood on the other side of the big 3Dwallscreen. He said nothing but he was clearly focused intently on the screen. Astrid had departed with Walter but there were a few other former Fringe people there along with other UNPSIA staff. Supersoldiers stood guard while other superclones assisted.

 

Olivia turned to face those watching, being a mixture of VIPs, advisers and specialists. "Why are we interested in the Bermuda Triangle now? Because we found a set of symbol maps in the AraComplex below Tarrytropolis. There is another reason, another discovery that has occurred almost at the exact time that the symbol maps were found; I doubt this is a coincidence. Knowledge has been brought to our attention here-now for a purpose."

 

She went on speaking. "The airport based UNPSIA base is surprisingly much the same as it started out being. The aerospace museum was found there, that could materialise many artefacts; it has been doing so and those replicas have been used in many ways. Also found was a tourist hub filled with shops, cafes and service offices related to possible air travel and tourism. While that area has been used ever since the airport was found, it was only recently that a set of odd books were found. The books are each focused on a particular history, and area, of the home world. One was on the Bermuda Triangle before the Exodus from Terra to Luna."

 

She frowned softly. "The amazing nature of this book is that it shows, in a matter of fact fashion, much that has not been officially known about; yet it only shows glimpses of a far greater, largely hidden, history. The book speaks of the first vanishing, in the 'triangle', as being a small fleet of Atlantian flying-ships carrying cargo-passengers to an island that also seems to have vanished. So there was a civilisation known as Atlantis and it had advanced exotic technologies. After that the Atlantians quarantined off much of what they called the Great Enemy's Triangle. It turns out that the Atlantians were descendents of a faction of AraFollowers who managed to survive the Great War of Horrors but who became sundered from the AraAncients."

 

Dogget spoke out. “Did the Atlantians assume that the vanished flying-ships were drawn to the Nullvoid, the prison of the Great Enemy?”

 

Scully studied the bioyie for a short moment before responding. “The Atlantians were bioyie-humans so perhaps you could inform us through your inherited bioyie memories.”

Dogget frowned. “The book must have told you of bioyie past cooperative existence with Atlantians. Bioyie inherited memories are not so clear cut, can be mixed, can be fussy, but I can tell you that the Atlantians feared that the 'triangle' was an area influenced by attempts to help the ancient evil entities escape from the Nullvoid. Relatively few vanished from our world while many more had strange experiences. There were also things that came from the 'other side' and which in legends became known as the kraken giant squids, the living islands of the leviathans, mermaids and many others. Atlantians did not think that the efforts were successful and, generally speaking, had surprisingly little impact on Terra.”

 

Scully shook her head. “The book focused on Atlantian knowledge of the 'triangle'. The Atlantian section speaks of the vanishing of over a dozen Greynari saucers in that area, almost as if they were drawn there the same way they were drawn to the subcontinent of the Shadow Continent (that was once the Zaztek Heartlands). Only one section is written by Atlantians and we found somebody who speaks the language fluently.”

 

Dogget nodded. “My knowledge of the language is far from perfect but might be helpful. I was planning to speak of the bioyie aspect of Atlantian existence. Please go on.”

 

Scully frowned softly. “The Atlantians spoke of the vanishings of the flying vessels, and sea going vessels, of a series of peoples with close ties to Atlantis. In truth there was much that went on, in the dangerous area, that they did not know of. When the Atlantis Troubles began the Atlantian influence on the world lessened greatly. Then, for reasons not in my bioyie memories, Atlantis vanished. The three grand islands were there one day and gone the next. Perhaps it meant something that Atlantis existed on the very edge of the Bermuda Triangle though, of course, they did not call it that.”

 

She frowned. “The rest of the first book will not open for us and neither will the other books for now. Yes, these are not typical books. They are metallic in nature, though of an unknown metal, and it seems will only open under certain conditions. What we need to do is to discover just why we suddenly gained this new information and what we can get from it. My gut tells me that it has something to do with other attempts to free the ancient monsters that fought the AraAncients, and their allies, in the Great War of Horrors.”

The exotic metallic books had been found by a smaller, inner most, group before their existence was announced to a wider population. Yet other finds remained more hidden for good reasons.

 

The betrayed betrayer had returned but was transformed into a golden metallic humanoid, a robed woman figure, along with silver figures otherwise identical and even more copper figures. The golden ones served the Reformed Lord and the copper ones served them. How he had come to be there, the Reformed Lord did not know. His purpose was clear to him. He was to assist the fight against the Great Enemy, also known as the Great Betrayer and many by many other titles including the Great Inducer of Evil. Many ancient terms were untranslatable to ones understandable by mortal humans.

 

The Rainbowman came and talked to him, leaving with a soft frown of concern on his face. Then the UNPSIA sent a big team that had people in it from other organisations including a Senator of the United Nations Lunar Labyrinth Parliament.

 

More reforms were sweeping through the Known Lunar Labyrinth with the rise of actual nation-states such as NewScotland, LunarChina and NewAustralia. Each had its own national government including parliament and constitution. Each of those constitutions was identical and founded on the greater constitution.

 

With the home world transformed, with no communications with the mass of humanity of Terra, the Known Lunar Labyrinth was forced to be more independent minded. Actually the process had begun decades before but was being formerly recognised and institutionalised.

The 'special section' of the tourist hub, of the materialised airport, was dotted with replicating alcoves with artefacts inside. None quite knew why it had been found and yet not focused upon. It was as if some powerful, subtle, force had been influencing people. Now the metallic stone alcoves were giving up copies of ancient tomes, only a very few being of very exotic nature, scrolls, atlas globes, maps, mannequins clothed with much gear along with some other items. Some of those items were of surprising nature.

 

Olivia, Peter, and Anderson walked through the special area noting collections of brightly covered paperback novels, video cassettes, CD-ROMs, CDs, DVDs, CDDs and other forms of portable media storage. This included software. Then they came to displays reflecting the software programs that had been swallowed by an ancient AraArtefact thanks to the chaotic actions of three clones; that had been despite the efforts of the J-Triplets to stop such from happening.

 

The Rainbow Chase Game involved trying to rescue the Rainbowbaby from a terrible, ancient, threat while being assisted, and attacked, by various factions. The heroes were 'RainbowFollowers'. They took up roles of other, mortal, characters during the 3Dmaze, 3Dplatform, 3Dshooter game. It was not always about shooting but about construction, healing and other goals to be met. The game involved such as superbugs, death-orbs and other phenomena that had appeared in the LL.

 

One hybrid game contained the XFiles characters, supersoldiers, the UNPSIA, grey aliens, the glowing spheres and much else known to fictions of the home world.

 

Another game was focused on the Super Fury Team, the PanAxis, the Zaztek Empire, the undead and an alternate World War Two but had links to the first CDD's content.

 

There was one display showing the games with Plastic Green Soldiers and related features.

 

Then there was a display showing a comprehensive virtual reality walk through historical encyclopaedia but it showed a version of the Earth that was unlike the home world they knew of.

 

Anderson frowned softly. "I suspect that are links, here, that could take us instantly to some very interesting places. I was always fully aware of this section but was not allowed to say so. It was up to mortals to reach a point where this place would become fully apparent to you. Everything that mortals have done so far has been largely guided by entities beyond even we True Eternals in enlightenment, evolution and ascension. The same is true of the GrandAncients even in their newer ascended existence. We are speaking of the GodGoddess of Multiversal Balances. That guidance is far from total and we have always been left to make choices, to make mistakes, to make good decisions and to take chances.”

 

He sighed. “One major mistake is that too many humans have been influenced by the true enemy, even yourselves though less so than such as the Big13 and the PanAxis. I suggest that we keep searching this area.”

They came upon other displays of games, other programs, but most of them had seemingly had no influence upon what was taking place in 'current reality'.

Then there was one that surprised them, concerned them, except for Anderson who was of the Eternal Guardian.

The strange game was one where a form of ultimate shape changing entity would infiltrate a population and then take over when triggering those entities; the irony was that the changed entities, deep in infiltration mode, would not know of their true nature. The game was a desperate search to find a way to detect the impostors and a solution that either killed, or integrated fully, them so that they would become harmless to the host people. Humanity was the host population and the impostors were followers of something they called the Great Devourer.

Armstrong spoke. “If that game has become true, has become part of reality, is humanity full of such impostors known as zishaperzi?”

Olivia shook her head. “We would have detected them by now!?”

Anderson sighed. “Olivia Dunham, you were of the zishaperzi, as were many others that were transformed to enhanced humanity during the 100 of status. That was one of the primary reasons that it was done for by the time over 50% of humans had been absorbed by the zishaperzi. So the proportion of zishaperzi was greatly reduced. The zishaperzi serve the monstrous entities trapped in the Nullvoid, were created by them when most of them were actually GrandAncients, before they deformed themselves through playing with forces beyond their control and a series of terrible abnormal addictions.”

Olivia frowned. “We should have been warned earlier!”

Anderson shook his head. “A general alert would only have triggered the zishaperzi to rise and they would have most likely been victorious. They can not enter the supercities with out being detected for what they are. Now you, and others like you, can not only detect the zishaperzi but you can fight them in special ways when they become 'awake' and transform to their true selves. The zishaperzi are related to the biojarl in that they infiltrate as tiny creatures that take over target entities that are vulnerable to such things and then combine. Surprisingly enough not all humans are vulnerable, just as not all species are. The zishaperzi are far more sophisticated, and patient, in their infiltrations than are the biozay and are more dangerous. Both biozay and bioyie have a good chance at detecting zishaperzi and a host, of either, is immune to the zishaperzi. One of the main reasons that the Atlantians chose to be bioyie-humans is to protect them against the zishaperzi.”

Games as reality, as part of the timespace paradox! Just where was the boundaries between the two, if there was such a thing?

[Maharg67]

One 74.3[119]{119}

 

Anderson spoke again. “Superbugs, supersoldiers, Special Ghost Operatives, and other forces have been secretly hunting down zishaperzi since the timespace event allowed those infiltrator to enter this dimensional realm. The SGOs have often been bioyie-humans. If you want to know what one possible result of zishaperzi risings are, then look to the Deathlords and the death-orbs; any one Deathlord is made up of many integrated zishaperzi creatures. The first zishaperzi used to be warped OroAncients and were created as part of a terrible experiment to become the first Deathlords.”

They went on through the game, programs, displays area but found nothing that seemed to have had any real impact upon 'reality'.

Until they came upon one display that had them stopping in surprise, apart from Anderson who looked concerned at what they were seeing.

So many entities, so many factions, so many agendas!? It seemed impossible to work out. In the UNPSIA Airport Base there was a heavy focus on doing just that but this was happening in other places also, with quite a few factions.

 

Patterns were forming that came from evidence that entities, that often appeared to be very alien to each other, were linked with each other in ways that were clues to more answers. Some such links were very close, exotic and surprising.

 

The Known Lunar Labyrinth was becoming mostly secured, peaceful, and was of guarded regular activities of society, including economic ones of demand and supply. Labyrinthburg was taking in more raw, and basically processed, resources from the Regional Territories while manufactured, and other, goods were flowing the other way.

 

People were leaving more isolated areas, whole settlements moving together with government assistance, to more secured, less isolated, areas.

 

There was fear of the future but also much hope.

 

People planned for the worst, just in case, but also worked for a future where that might not happen.

 

Unity rising continued!

Field-Marshal Abdul Abdula observed Deathlordic Forces assaulting his own well dug in forces. Deathlords had started out as corrupted treacherous OroAncients only to be OroFollowers as their changes somehow led to a loss in status. The Deathlords had split away from the Traitor OroAncients and had never forgiven them for the degrading of their status. Abdul found that he supported the OroAncients in what they had done for there was something about the nature of the Deathlords that stank of chaotic evil that could never really be trusted. Yet it was an act of hypocrisy that had seen their status down graded by traitors.

 

The Eternal Warrior was using that chaotic aspect, of his enemies, against them. Enemy units came against his forces in barely organised manner, in formations that were easily scattered by careful attacks. Super death-orbs were focused on and were destroyed as early as possible for they had turned out to be important coordinating units. They did more than drain life energies and produce swarms of death-orbs.

 

Across a river came the attackers and things assaulted them from the waters. Deathnoids, and deathmans, came in basic water craft but had troubles with the power of the river currents; many of the vessels over turned or just sank, those in the crafts being swept down river; many drowned!

 

Artillery shells, rocket-shells, rockets and missiles exploded amongst the enemy. Pulsebeams of energy shot at the enemy from vehicles and ground batteries. Swarms of superbugs fought death-orbs in the air. Battle drones assisted the superbugs as did amazingly agile supersoldiers in jetpacks. The supersoldiers wore special power armour.

 

But when the Deathlordic Forces suddenly began to withdraw, the field-marshal cautioned his people that such an action did not indicate defeat. The enemy was up to something and he feared they would be waiting for some kind of reinforcement to arrive before they struck again.

Though partly correct about the retreating Deathlordic Forces, Field-Marshal Abdul Abdula was also wrong. The Deathlords, and their Deathlordic Forces, had suffered far more heavier losses than had been planned for. Running out of every important kind of resource, with promised assistance having failed to arrive, Deathlord KaKaKazul had no choice but to withdraw away from the avatar of the Eternal Warrior.

 

KaKaKazul also had to admit that as a military commander, strategist-tactician- logistician, that the field-marshal had bested him from the very start of the campaign. Indeed it could be said that his opponent had won before the first skirmish had taken place.

 

As a bizarre humanoid, the Deathlord made consultations with bizarre versions of computers. Deathlordic Technologies were often truly bizarre being mixtures of living and quasiliving mechanisms and webworks. Then again all the Deathlordic entities, including the Deathlords, were at least partly made up of such technologies. The deathmans were one who were enslaved, partly absorbed, by Deathlord Tech.

 

Yet there was much, hidden in the ugly past, of Deathlordic secrets that had not been used in the current conflict. To his own surprise KaKaKazul did not want the most dangerous ones to be used; he remembered the malignant, hard to control, and horrific consequences of using such. Even as a Deathlord he had been shaken up and was not the only one, though he was part of only a minority that had survived.

 

For the first time in his painful existence he began to consider new possibilities, new choices.

Zishaperzi arose from groups, of people, in the Regions of the KLL, as if it had been planned that they would be together when it happened. This meant that such arisings were easier to detect, to be isolated and to be dealt with.

Captain Armstrong was certain it was no coincidence, and it would have been a highly improbable one if it had been, but was the result of many changes that had taken place. Humanity had failed to see what was happening, with very few exceptions, because it had been busy dealing with the many changes taking place; this was quite understandable; it had failed to see the forest for the trees, the overall picture!

Armstrong spoke, being in the recently upgraded UNPSIA Central Command Chamber, with its new name. “I suspect strongly that most of us were meant to be distracted from what was really going on to stop us from triggering the rise of the zishaperzi before most of them could be dealt with. The biggest surprise is that the rising zishaperzi are not all hostile to humanity. Only a minority are hostile! The other big surprise is that the hostile ones are attacking Deathlordic Forces despite that the Deathlords are a form of zishaperzi. I wish I could say that these factors meant there will be less danger in future but I can not do so.”

Olivia spoke out. “We discovered that the Known Lunar Labyrinth is a unique part of the Lunar Labyrinth, being a 'pocket labyrinth' in its own right, and that it was always meant for we Terrans to exist in. Labyrinthburg is the quasiliving support frame for the Humanard Lunar Labyrinth. It was planned to happen this way long before the Timespace Event and the Terra to Luna Exodus or perhaps it was always a result of the Timespace Event and the Timespace Paradox.”

Olivia: “The metallic book, that had partly opened, is now fully open and has revealed that many vanishings have taken place, of Terran lifeforms, over an extremely long time. This included not just dinosaurs but creatures that existed a very long time before they did. Not all, that vanished, ended up inside Luna; most ended up in the Havenlands of the Continent of Mist.”

Olivia: “The Continent of Mist exists in more than one dimensional realm and remains part of Terra. The metallic tome is amazing for it has more pages, more information, than seems possible in an object of its volume, mass and design. It will take time to gain even a large percentage of useful knowledge from it. So we have learned the the Continent of Mist is no longer part of Terra but not where it is now. That is not all that we have learned.”

Armstrong took over. “We have learned the purpose of humanity being here in the Humanard Lunar Labyrinth and even why it has that name. Many of those, that vanished from Terra, will be appearing here in the years to come. They have leapt into the future. We must prepare for their arrivals. Yet our major task has always been to survive. Yes, to survive! For a great ancient evil wants to destroy us at any cost but for reasons barely understood. Not that it really matters for the evil that I speak of is not rational, not logical or fair in any way at all.”

The others, at the large table, were trying to process all of the new information and, more so, the implications of what they were learning.

Armstrong: “The other bit, of very surprising information, recently gained is that Earthtropolis has vanished from Terra taking the great majority of humanity, and other lifeforms, with it. Unfortunately the Shadow Continent not only remains but is expanding in a way seemingly impossible. Only Jungletropolis, of Junglenam, is fighting a rise of the Shadow Empire on the Shadow Continent itself, though with assistance from elsewhere; most of all that assistance is from the Havenlands of the Continent of Mist. It appears the two exotic continents were always meant to go to war with each other for the Continent of Mist is also expanding in a seemingly impossible manner.”

 

One man spoke out. “What happens on Terra is not our concern any longer. We must focus on our own survival.”

 

Captain Armstrong gave the high ranking Guardia officer a hard look. “Firstly, you broke protocol in speaking as you have. Secondly, you are wrong! What happens on Terra is very much linked to our survival which is why we will be sending resources to assist the war against the Shadow Empire, the Shadow Continent. If the enemy is victorious on Terra, they will launch a massive invasion against Luna.”

 

The man shut up but he did not seem to be convinced by Captain Armstrong's argument. The Eternal Guardian would have the man investigated carefully and also punished for going against protocol with out having an excellent reason for doing so.

 

The meeting went on with the information that the expedition, to the Lunar Overworld, was soon to reach the Lunar Surface.

The man, who had interrupted Armstrong at the meeting, vanished with out a trace. Armstrong ordered an extensive search to be made, on many levels, but what came up was that the man had never really existed. The Eternal Warrior was not used to being deceived so easily and was puzzled why he had not realised that something was wrong. Or was that true? Looking back at the meeting, at his own responses to the man and his strong urge to get rid of him from the meeting, he realised that he really had 'sensed' that something was not quite right with that one. This did not help to discover where, who or what the intruder was.

1,000 years had passed, in the Lunar Overworld, as 100 years had passed in the Known Lunar Labyrinth. How, why, this happened was unknown to the great majority. The expeditionary group encamped close to the great rusting hulk of what had been a spacejet. It was riddled with bullet holes and signs of explosions. Yet it also showed signs of having been looted of many useful items. Despite the rust, the wreck had been fixed up as a ramshackle shelter where loperfolk refugees had placed a various facilities such as a medical area, a kitchen and a workshop. Loperfolk had dug down into the ground to build a network of tunnels and chambers. Huge, low gravity, plants helped to conceal the make shift settlement.

There were very well designed, and made, tents of the same kind being small, medium and large; even the 'small' tents were quite large and the large ones were huge. There were other useful items that had come from an unusual source such as backpacks, tool sets, blankets, bright burning low heat torches, tripod-lamps, hand-lamps, special lamp oil, coils of rope, vials of concentrated healing serum, an odd selection of old type musical instruments and much else. Most common were odd carry-canisters that had held the items when first obtained.

Walter examined the ancient type artefact that looked like an exotic vending machine and he was clearly intrigued. Then again, he was deeply interested in much that was going on in the area.

Scully came up to stand beside him, doing so in a low gravity walking fashion. "Everybody who gets close, to the device, starts gaining something called transcredit. From that transcredit can be gained a basic set of items, all of them with exotic secondary qualities. The blankets are waterproof and surprisingly good with dealing with both extreme cold and extreme heat. The backpacks are amazingly light but strong as are the thin coils of rope. The tents are surprisingly secure when put up properly. Yet its the concentrated healing serum that is most impressive."

Walter nodded, more to himself than to Scully.

A patrol of loperfolk warriors passed quickly past, at some distance, and close to a platoon of supersoldiers that they pointedly ignored. Many loperfolk did not take kindly to strangers and their warriors' pride would not accept the amazing abilities of supersoldiers.

Loperfolk, and others of the region, were being forced to make changes. The Freedom Alliance was arising from a series of negotiations and new agreements. While many loperfolk did not like depending on an alliance with outsiders, even non local loperfolk, they were smart enough to know it had to happen.

Deathlordic forces were approaching roughly from the west west south, approaching through the Glassicalands after conquering two large citystates in that area. Air convoys of low gravity aircraft, of different kinds, passed overhead at times as refugees retreated from that direction, often taking many resources with them. The United Citystates of Gloria Luna had many surviving citystates but had lost two of their most important ones. The UCGL refused to join the Freedom Alliance but intended to become a more independent ally of the alliance. Sometimes air convoys parachute dropped resources down to the settlement.

Walter nodded again. “We can use our own transcredit to buy items and take a few as samples to examine while giving most to the settlement.”

Scully smiled. “Already done! Mulder, and I, even did some careful analyse of dispenser items and learned very little. The items are impervious to our instrumentalities, even the more advanced ones.”

The Rainbowman suddenly stood there, almost as if he had always been there. He spoke quietly but many heard him easily. “The chess pieces have been moved into place for the true game to begin. Yet this is no mere game but a great struggle for survival. Soon the AraHeart will fully awaken, being one of the most powerful of the AraArtefacts ever created by the AraAncients, which is saying a great deal indeed. The awakening, of the AraHeart, must take place but the consequences, of doing so, will be good, bad and neutral.”

The Rainbowman: “As for the dispenser items, they are but a gift to assist people to survive, a list that was last used a very very long time ago; it can be expanded, made more flexible and there are other lists to be accessed. There are also handy tricks that can be used when using such items with each other and other resources.”

The Rainbowman: “What needs to be understood is that while the fate of humanity is central, to the process, so are the fate of other peoples, most of which humanity does not even know about.”

The metallic stone structure, of the dispenser area, began to visibly expand, to change, even as they stood there. As people stopped, and stared, it became a dome pushing upwards from the grounds. The spacejet shimmered and became brand new, along with its attachments, but also enhanced and expanded as an aerospaceplane able to fly both in vacuum and oxygen based atmosphere. Soon the dome would become the basis of the settlement and the transport would be used as such.

A swarm of superbugs was soon swirling around them, sometimes settling onto shoulders.

Clouds swirled overhead, light grey with the promise of rain, but glimpses could be caught of the Luna World-Bubble that kept the atmosphere bound to that world. Beyond that was the home world, a world-bubble wrapped sphere of blue, green, brown and other colours. The shapes of the land masses were largely unchanged except for the slowly, steadily, growing Continent of Mist and Shadow Continent.

The Rainbowman gave Scully, Mulder and Walter each a small rainbow sphere. Even as he did so, he spoke. “You will know how to use these, and how, and it will be soon. May GodGoddess be with you and karmic entities help guide you wisely.”

Then the Rainbowman was gone, almost as if he had never been there.

The idea that the Continent of Mist had vanished from the home world was an accident of observation, a short lived mistake, on one level. Yet it was also, strangely enough, a truth driven by a short lived and exotic transitional state. The Continent of Mist had vanished away, from Terra, only to return back to the very second that it had vanished. It was enough to give nearly anybody a headache trying to work it out even if they were of the minority that had perceived, remembered, what had taken place.

 

A great network of bubbles now sealed off the Havenlands from the Glowing Fog that engulfed the area except that the Havenlanders knew that exotic influences seeped through the powerful bubbles anyway. The bubbles were of solid smart armour, quasi-energy and energy. The Havenic Empire existed as the enclosed Havenlands, only, on Terra but also as space colonies including a big secret one in the Known Lunar Labyrinth. The Havenlanders had abandoned the Terran Labyrinth and Terran Underworld thanks to changes that had taken place down there.

 

Havenlanders were starting to fall into strange walking slumbers, to change in strange ways of mind-body-spirit, and to give birth to transformed young. So far it was only a tiny minority amongst them and the other lifeforms inside the 13 Havenic Bubbles, the 13HBs. Yet the glowing fog-mist was not as dangerous, as evil, as was the glimmering fog-mist.

 

New plans, of survival, were being made by the Havenlanders and some were being carried out.
