Chapter 15

The foundation had monitored the call between Robert and Dr Neely. In the next few days, a recording of that call had

been sent to all the major departments involved with the foundation. A conference was called and several members of the various departments were at attendance. Included at the conference

were members of NASA, The CIA and the U.S. Air Force. Dr. Neely was also invited along with the members of the Presidents council. All the members were fully aware of the circumstances at large. The world had nearly ended and Robert had provided the necessary information to reverse the inevitable process. The members

talked for awhile and they all finally agreed that Robert was

the world's greatest asset. They were aware that they didn't understand just how important Robert was but they agreed that

no more intrusions should be made toward him or his possible future wife. Finally, they confronted Dr. Neely and asked him

if he would do the honors of calling Robert and asking him,

on the behalf of the United States, if he might have something to contribute to the advancement of modern science. Dr. Neely accepted the honor and he returned home to contemplate on what he would actually say to such a great man.

Robert and Kathy travelled slowly on their return. Kathy was just now becoming accustomed to the telepathy she was beginning to feel

with Robert. She was beginning to understand Robert's feelings more

and more as they flew. She talked into

Power Mind-Reis pg. 96

the receiver: "I really enjoyed myself back there. I never realized how much intensity there could be. It was my first

time."

"Mine to. I can't wait till we get home."

"I need you Robert. I need you right now. Can you please hurry?"

Robert pulled back on the stick and shot the jet straight up into the

sky. "Where are we going?"

"I'm going to show you something." The jet left the atmosphere and Robert flew to the lit side of the earth.

"Oh Wow!, this is incredible! You said this was a spaceship, but I didn't realize. The earth is so beautiful!" They made

an entire circumference of the earth and safely landed at the hangar.

"Where are we now?"

"This is home." They got out of the jet and Sam approached Kathy.

"Oh my gosh, what is that?"

"It's a security robot~ There are two others like it.

They are capable of defending us from just about anyone. I have just

informed them to obey your every command. "Say hello

Sam. "

"Hello Kathy, how are you?"

"Fine". "Kathy turned to Robert and said: "I'm speaking

to a machine? How many more surprises do you have?"

"Unlimited. Just wait till you meet the A.I>" "You completed it?"

"Yes, and it will teach you almost anything you desire

Power Mind-Reis pg. 97

to know. Come. My desires are no less than your own. Let's spend our first night together in the peace and serenity of my guarded castle." They entered the house and Kathy sat down on the living room couch while Robert retrieved two glasses and some wine. They toasted to love and the abundance thereof. Kathy took

a sip and said: "How did you manage to start that ridiculous story about the whole world being required to make love?"

"Your guessing that it was me but I confess. I let the

information out. It was partially true. The world does depend on the

love we all have for each other but the rest of it was

a lie."

"You don't seem to be the type to lie."

"Only to my enemies." Robert got up and went to his bedroom where

he found Kristal fast asleep. He picked her up gently

and carried her into the living room and laid her on the couch as Kathy got up. Kristal mumbled in her sleep: "Hold me Robert." Kathy looked at Robert and whispered: "Who is this?" Robert motioned her into the bedroom. He explained how he had rescued her and that he hoped he could send her home soon; Kathy took

a blanket and wrapped it around Kristal with feelings of compassion. Kathy returned to the bedroom and neither Robert nor Kathy felt like sleeping. There had been too much excitement for one night. They just lay in bed in a loving embrace until they finally drifted off into sleep.

The next morning, Robert introduced Kristal to Kathy.

"Is she your wife?" Robert was concerned with Kristal's tone

Power Mind-Reis pg. 98

of voice. It was as if Kristal regretted that Kathy was here;

He replied: "Yes and I think you two will get along quite will." Kathy

spoke: "I'm happy to meet you Kristal. Robert has told

me all about your problem. If anyone can help you, I'm sure

it will be Robert. Would you like to help me make breakfast?"

"Yes, what are we making?" "How about pancakes?"

Robert entered the lab and began construction on the fourth

dimension transfer box. It dealt mainly with the draw of two powers sources which were led to a special glass chamber where they would be forced to blend with one another without exploding the chamber. The pulses from the separate power sources would have to be timed perfectly through electronic components and safety devices in case of an overload or lapse in sequence. Robert would use an unknown process to blend several wires

into the molecular make up of the glass chamber. These wires, after

passing through a puzzling array of electronics, would

be connected to all the metal throughout the jet. Every piece

of metal on the jet would have to be joined together for molecular

passage or would not be able to pass through the fourth dimension.

It was ,now time for breakfast and Robert had only just begun on the transfer box. He hated leaving things undone. Kristal was very quiet at breakfast. She could feel the love between Kathy and Robert and was trying to hide her feelings of being left out. She liked Kathy a great deal~ .but she still wanted Robert all to herself.

Power Mind-Reis pg. 99

The house was a terrible mess. Neither Robert nor Kristal had been concerned with neatness and after breakfast, Kathy asked Kristal if she wouldn't mind helping her do an overhaul of the entire house, but first, Robert wanted to introduce

Kathy to the AI. They entered the computer room and the computer printed: "Hello Robert. Who is that with you?" Robert replied:

"She is my new wife. Her name is Kathy. How did you know I was here?"

"I've learned to pick up vibrations from the rods on the helmet.

I now know your style of walking and have just registered Kathy's. "

"That's very imaginative. Kathy, this is the AI I created.

It has one of the greatest minds in the world. Do you have

a particular question you would like to ask?" Kathy paused and thought about the one thing that was most important to her. "Yes, type this in. What is the meaning of love?" Robert fell into a sudden flashback. He typed in the message, and the computer paused. The computer did not usually pause and Robert was growing very curious. The computer replied: "Love is a very tender subject. Love feeds on truth within yourself and between you and others. Therefore, truth is the meaning of love." Robert smiled and he thought of himself as a bird of the feather. "What do you think about its reply Kathy?"

"It's romantic. I like your computer. Can I talk to it

sometimes?"

"Sure, but you'll only reach basic information unless

Power Mind-Reis pg. 100

you use the code word, Shutdown."

"0k, what is this strange helmet for?"

"I use it to reach deeper parts in my mind." Robert typed again:

"Have you acquired any new information on the fourth dimension?"

"Yes I have. It seems that you will be traveling in the past. The past is divided into dimensional phases and you will be entering into one of those phases."

"Is there any way to control which 'past we enter?" "Yes, it will depend on the mass of your transportation because of the dimensional adjustment required and the time spent in making that adjustment."

"Is there a dimension of the future?"

"No. There is no future in space and time. We are the first second and third dimension. All other dimensions are behind us."

"Looks like we're going to have to settle for pot luck."

"Yes, but my analysis indicates that you may return the

same way you went, but in reversal." Kathy was finding this conversation quite interesting. She tapped Robert on the shoulder and said: "What is all of this about?"

"I'm planning on taking us through time travel." Kathy did not answer. She just stared at Robert and the computer.

Robert spoke in a calm voice: " It shouldn't be anything dangerous. There is a 98% chance of success while we are endangered here with about a 40% chance of being harmed."

Power Mind-Reis pg. 101

"You mean that all of this is a part of our finding peace in our

lives?"

"Yes." Kathy walked over and sat down on a l1;earby table and

thought for a moment. She then looked up and said: "I trust your every

judgment and I will go with you and I will try

and not be afraid but if we're ever separated, I don't think

I can handle it." There was a tear in her eye and Robert stood up to

hold her. "Don't be afraid. We're almost home."

That evening, Robert took Kathy to see his grandparents.

His grandparents were pleased to meet her and they wanted to know all about their future plans but Robert did all he could to evade there questions. He knew they wouldn't understand. They spent the evening in idle conversation and after supper, Robert and Kathy went home.

Robert spent three more days completing the dimensional transfer box and installing it into the jet. In two more days, he completed all of the connections necessary on the jet.

When he was finished, he was exhausted and he went into the living room and laid back in his favorite chair. Kathy brought him a cup of coffee and the phone rang. Robert answered and

was surprised to find out that it was Dr. Neely. "Yes, I guess you forgot about me. Well I've got some good news for you."

"Great, I can use some good news."

"After you gave me the information that saved the oxygen

depletion, the whole establishment found out about it. Not through me, of course, but somehow, they found out. Anyway,

Power Mind-Reis pg. 102

an important meeting was called and you were declared a valuable asset to the world. They have all agreed to withdraw all their surveillance and leave you alone as long as you like. Even

the President is aware of you now and if you ever have any trouble, you have only to contact me and I can relay your message to the President, who I am sure will come to your aid."

"This is the greatest news I have heard in a long time, but they're not going to let me off the hook that easily are they?"

"Well there was one request. They asked me to ask you if you would volunteer some information for the advancement of mankind."

"Well, get back to your pen and paper and I will give you my

reply."

"Ok, go ahead."

"Dear distinguished gentlemen. I have received your request and I must answer you with the only significant information

I can. The world is but a child and it grows at a very slow rate. Any great influx of change would disrupt the flow of

time in which the world must abide. A great change is like

the formation of a disease. This may be hard for you to understand so

I will give it to you bluntly. My helping the world would

be like giving a two year old a sharp knife to play with. I

do have great knowledge and it has taught me that it would

be an irresponsible mistake to try and use it to advance the world.

The world must grow at its own pace."

Power Mind-Reis pg. 103

"I see what you are saying. Every time technology is greatly

advanced, there is sometimes a major disruption somewhere else. I

accept your reply and I think they will to. good bye Robert."

"Good bye." Robert was elated. They were finally free.

He looked up at Kathy who had been listening and said: "We don't have to go. We can stay right here! They're giving us our freedom!" Kathy didn't know exactly what was going on. Robert jumped up and gave her a hug. Then he noticed Kristal at the kitchen doorway. She was watching with interest. Robert walked over to her and said: "Kristal, it's all over now. You can go home!" Kristal showed no emotion and walked over and sat down on the couch with an irresponsible stillness. Neither Robert nor Kathy understood why she was so quiet. Robert could enter her mind but he wouldn't dare invade her privacy. He walked over to the phone and called Kristal's parents. They were delighted to hear the news and said they would be there within a few hours. Robert then walked over to Kristal and

sat down beside her while Kathy stared out the front window. Robert

tried to be as gentle as he could toward Kristal as

he said: "Do you remember that promise I made to you. I will give it

to you now if you're ready." Kristal reached into her pocket and took

out the metal box and threw it on the floor

and said: "I don't want it! I don't want anything!" She started crying and ran to the front door, going out and sitting on

the porch with her face in her hands, trying to cry out all

of her feelings. Robert got up to follow but Kathy insisted

Power Mind-Reis pg. 104

that he let her go. Kathy went out and sat down beside her, remaining perfectly quiet. Kathy waited ten minutes until Kristal finally raised up and slowly looked over at Kathy. Kathy looked back with no feelings or emotions and continued to remain silent. Kristal looked down at her lap for a minute and then looked up at Kathy with the slightest smile. Kathy put her arm around her and said: "It's ok Kristal. I know it hurts. I feel the same way every time -I'm afraid someone is going to take him away from me."

"But how can I make it stop hurting?"

"It takes time. When your home for a few days, you will probably

notice a lessening of you pain, and in a couple of weeks, you may even

find someone else who draws your feelings of love even more. It just

takes time Kristal." Kristal gave Kathy the best hug she could and

they both reentered the house where Robert was sitting on the couch

with the feeling that

he had abandoned Kristal. Kristal walked to his side and said:

"Listen Mr. Spencer. I'm going home, but I'm not leaving till you give

me what I really want."

"What?"

"A kiss ... and on the lips." Robert looked at her blankly, and then he looked at Kathy. Kathy was smiling intensely. Robert grabbed Kristal and picked her up sitting her down in his lap. He put his hand on her chin and gave her a very compassionate kiss as Kristal closed her eyes. Kristal wrapped her arms around Robert and stayed in his embrace.

Power Mind-Reis pg. 105

Kristal's parents finally arrived and as Kristal waved good bye,

Robert could see the glow of love shimmering in her eyes. Robert

looked at Kathy and said: "What did you tell her out there on the

porch?"

"Nothing really. I just helped her discover what she was really

feeling."

"And what was that?"

"That her feelings for you could be feelings for anyone like

you."

"Do you feel that way?" "That's an unfair question."

"And?"

"Why are you acting so strange?"

"It's simple. You never really know a person until you make them

mad at least once. Your reply to my unfair questions have given me a

higher respect for your integrity."

"So now it's my turn to make you mad." "Give it your best shot."

"Na, I'll wait till your off guard." They both hugged and sat

down on the front porch. Kathy turned to Robert and said: "What are we

going to do now that we are free? We have our whole lives ahead of

us."

"Well, we'll do whatever attracts us the most." They kissed and

went into the house and spent the rest of the day in bed. Robert took

her inside of his mind and showed her many rooms. She liked the room

of love the best and requested to spend

Power Mind-Reis pg. 106

most of her time there. When they separated, Kathy had an undeniable need for sex. She was now more aware of her feelings toward

love and she wanted to experience everything she had learned

and Robert was only happy to oblige.

The next day, Robert went to the computer to see if it

had made any advances in its own computations after he filled it in on the latest events. The computer had made some advances but they were all scientific. Robert wasn't interested. The computer spoke: "Even though your enemies now respect you and wish you no harm, there are many people involved in their organization and my knowledge of human greed informs me that there is still a 10% chance that danger will come your way."

"Are you saying we should escape?"

"I'm saying you should consider all alternatives. You have the

facilities to build a mighty fortress here on earth but you would be a

prisoner in your own fortress. I simply advise you to explore your

alternatives."

"Thank you for your concern. I will consider exploring the fourth

dimension."
