said Kallo, ‘back where he came from, yes, and I promise to visit you every night in your dreams, Dan. How does that sound?’
I could tell there was something desperately wrong somewhere, but where?
‘You can escort him out of this network, Reeas. Please make sure he goes straight through to the border will you, I don’t want him to hurt himself on the way, you know?’
‘I’ll take care of him.’ said Reeas.
Later in preparing myself for the journey out of the sub plane base I asked Reeas if she could help me gain access to a lightship or Debra.
‘It won’t be any use.’ Reeas said. I then saw Deria materialize!
‘Quick.’ she said. ‘We don’t have much time. Kallo is at the moment occupied with other matters. Come, we will try to access Debra, I also tried to contact Mannus and failed.’
With the help of Reeas and Deria I was able to use the invisibility mode which I’m sure you students will say, so what? But the thing is, I am just like a new student and unable to do the simplest of things which I used to take for granted! We gained access to the space port, and then we walked through the wall of the craft. I felt at ease as I sat in the oh-so-comfortable chair that molded around me like a warm breeze.
I touched the control panel. Imagine my horror at seeing Kallo’s face on the screen!
‘Having a little look around before we leave, are we?’
‘What’s your problem, Kallo?’ I said.
‘I’ll tell you what my problem is. Reeas deliberately disobeyed an order to take you straight to the border. That’s what! As of now, Reeas, you are demoted in rank and banished from the Guardian bases also Deria for collaborating with you. Please make sure you leave this base at once!’
‘What is this?’ I said. ‘You know Reeas and Deria are the two most loyal Guardians that we have!’
‘There is no ‘We.’ You are nothing now, and to be a loyal Guardian you have to be able to take orders, my little, low consciousness ex-Napie friend. Now we are going on a little journey. Please don’t try and interfere with the ship as I have full control.’
For students: you will know that we are still on the astral plane so the ship is an astral equivalent. Yes, I know you already know it but I just want to make myself believe it as I am in a lower state, as you know.’
Kallo dropped us off at a sub plane city on the twenty-eight level. Just before leaving he said, ‘Do not attempt to come back! You have all been erased from the Guardian-Databank.’ Then the ship disappeared!
Students will wonder why I can still record these messages. All I can say is they have been updated and any messages that Kallo has messaged have been edited out. I can’t tell you any more than that. We were now looking at each other in bewilderment. Deria was the first to speak. ‘We have got to make contact with Sionn or Mannus.’
‘Yes, but how can we if we are no longer Guardians?’ Reeas said.
‘We are still in higher consciousness.’ said Deria.
‘What about me?’ I said. ‘You may as well drop me off at my wife Elaine’s house; I am no use to you like this!’
‘Dan, I think you are the key!’ Deria said.
‘Yes.’ said Reeas. ‘Why else would Kallo just let you go?’
‘Exactly,’ said Deria.
‘How,’ I said.
‘Because he want’s access to Debra,’ said Deria.
‘What about him being able to read our minds by Thought-Transfer.’ I said.
‘I don’t care,’ said Reeas, ‘I want him to know that we are going to bring him down!’
‘He knows already,’ said Deria, but don’t worry, I can already tell he isn’t picking up our thoughts, also he doesn’t as yet have Debra fully functioning.’
‘How did he manage to get rid of us so easily?’ I said.
‘Because he has access to the Guardian-Network.’ said Reeas.
‘Can I just say something, my beautiful friends?’ Reeas and Deria were now looking at me with love, yes, even now in this lower state of consciousness I could see and feel it.
‘I have tried to get to Mannus and my past masters, also, I have tried to access my Room-of-Doors but with no success. All I can say is that you two will always be part of me no matter what happens, whether I am in higher or lower consciousness.’ Reeas said, ‘Yes, Dan, I know. We are tied together and not just because we are man and wife.’
Deria said, ‘There is no force in the Multiverse that can part us.’
Now I was feeling good, even in this lower state.’
Deria said, ‘I want us to go to my home planet. Kallo won’t be able to access us and the consciousness will be good for you, Dan.’
‘OK by me.’ I said. Reeas said, ‘Good Idea.’
For you students again: Deria is from the Planet Sandora in the Sauteir-Galaxy. The planet was invaded by a race of beings known as the Cryon’s; they over ran the planet and looked upon the beautiful little fairy like creatures as their pets. Now with help from the Guardians Sandora is now getting back to normal.
With help from Deria and Reeas I was able to transfer to the astral planet Sandora. Imagine our horror when we were met at the sub plane base by Guardian coworkers!
‘I’m sorry Reeas and Deria, but Dan is not wanted here. You can stay Deria, but Reeas must leave immediately with Dan.’
‘What is this?’ Reeas said.
‘Orders from the Guardian base,’ said the leader, who we knew personally.
‘Can you tell us what is going on, Treater?’ Reeas said.
‘I’m afraid not, please prepare to leave!’
‘Where are we supposed to go?’
‘I can tell you that you cannot go to any physical planet.’
‘What?
‘Also, Dan can only go to the astral equivalent of Earth.’
‘This is madness.’ Reeas said.
‘Orders, I’m afraid, Reeas, Please be aware that you will be met at whatever astral planet you go to and you will be separated’
‘Do you mean I can’t live with my Dan?’
‘I’m afraid not.’
I was now feeling very angry and frustrated. But all I could say was ‘Don’t worry, Reeas, Deria, I will be OK. Maybe it is for the best.’ I could tell Reeas was trying to understand. She knew also that I was not going to just give up.’ She also had the consciousness to realize that I was trying to keep myself in check. Yes, my student friends, anger is part of the physical world but it is also the downfall of any people on the inner planes such as Lucifer or Kallo. We are now being told once more to go. Reeas said, ‘I will take you to the Earth base, Dan.’
‘I’m afraid not,’ said Treater, we will see he gets to Earth’s astral sub base.
‘Will you be OK, Dan? ‘You better take care of him, otherwise you will be responsible!’
Reeas looked him straight in the eyes. ‘I mean it, if anything bad happens to my Dan, you will be found, and you will suffer!’
Treater was now looking around nervously.
‘Don’t worry, all we are going to do is hand him over to our equivalent number at Earth’s astral base!’
‘Who are they?’
‘I don’t know. That information is restricted.’
‘I don’t like the looks of it.’ Deria said. ‘Listen to me,’ she said to Treater, ‘we are not going to let you take Dan, and we are not going to obey your orders!’
Treater was now backing off with his two companions.
‘Don’t make me use the new weapons we were given.’
‘Oh,’ said Reeas. ‘And what are they?’
‘We don’t know exactly. But they would do you untold damage, and could even alter you as soul!’
‘Another one of Kallo’s little devices eh?’ said Reeas. ‘Well, let us see if it works on other life forms.’ Reeas then transformed herself into her Tourgen clone. Deria was also in the form of a Tourgen. Treater was now pointing one of the weapons at Reeas.
‘Go on.’ Reeas said. ‘Let??
?s see if you can beat me to it!’
‘I don’t want to hurt you, Reeas.’
‘Oh? Well I want to hurt you. I suppose it is because tourgens are more animal than human anyway. You know I will get to you even if you do manage to pull the trigger and you will feel pain as I rip your head off.’
‘OK.’ said Treater, ‘You can have him. I’ll report back, you know you are now outcasts.’
‘Yes,’ Reeas said. ‘But we were anyway.’
‘Good Luck, you will need it. I am going to see if I can find out what is going on with the network. We all know something is desperately wrong and I don’t care if Kallo knows it!’
‘Good, then we do have some ally’s?’
‘As you know, I am head of security; I have to deal with all sorts of people, but now I don’t know what’s happening since Kallo has been in the Guardian-Network. Things have changed, little-by-little more of our own people want him, but others don’t, and to top it off we don’t know where Sionn is!’ Suddenly Kallo himself appeared!
‘Having a little dispute, are we?’
Before I could do anything I felt a slight touch to the back of my neck. I was now in a beautiful lakeside setting lying on a grass bank looking at Reeas and Deria!
‘What happened?’ I said.
Deria said, ‘I thought it would be appropriate to get us out of there.’
‘You used Sionn’s little trick,’ said, Reeas.
‘Yes, but Kallo also knows it. But don’t worry, he can’t find us here.’
‘Where are we?’
‘We are in one of the special sub planes that we use when we are in danger. Sionn himself approved it just for such an emergency. It is called Oasis.’
‘Then we may be able to find Sionn here.’ I said.
‘I’m afraid not. But maybe we can start the
