He Qi Lin (Chinese man) asked:
Universe People, Second Chapter Sword in the Night
Someone place do not, there is a small planet of Ganbao near Universe Star of G.I.M.E., the planet name is Leitibu, planet cubagea is a half of living star of D.S., there have plenty wood resource. Plain and forest are main earth surface character of Leitibu. And the ruler name is Windon, he’s one of 10 grand elders of G.I.M.E.he’s senator of parliament of empire too. Today, he’s talking a shaking-world thing with thousands of nobles and officers or others in the secret fortress himself. It’s concern that how to pull down empire, then establish new Galaxy Republic.
The secret fortress has builded on the barranca of canyon. Canyon outer was made up with black stones, they’re hardness. It’s cann’t arrived but flying and climbing. There is a long long stream Under canyon, clear stream always attract many wild-animal. Top of canyon have growing flourish forest, birds and beasts everywhere, some times guards of fortress are fear of fierce wild-animals forest. This day unlikeliness before, a dense mass of armored forces strong hold to entire forest, very enclosing the place, even a fly couldn’t escaped too. Heavy space-tanks have ruler to patrol. A lot of Leitibu special-force soldiers firmly watching every important pass. Difference group of fleet assigned to Sky of forest. Gentle swind blowed the canyon, then made a little swind sound, It’s looks like pouring out a hurricane is coming.
The center of fortress is magnificence meeting hall, there could contain thousands of people in a meeting. Black and gold powerful coat, he’s good speeching on audiences applause. Fiery eyes fast see to everyone, thousands of eyes watching himself. He’s heartened, exciting face bare with thinking. Face to 20 galaxies supporters, he’s clarity know today will become first day to change empire history. Tomorrow, he will become really leader in people eyes, great hero in people mind.
Windon had pressed show-button of rostrum with hand, screens of wonderful digital simulation pictures from top of high air. The rotund loud speech continuing,“I know this day is a special day, because Onhogo was born that time in 420 years ago. Empire have making a country celebration for him. Today is another special day too, it’s first day of open new the universe, stride forward with hands to hands.” Beforetime, some people have gotten welfare living underrule of Liyidan, but is only belong to a part of people! Because still have a lot pats of people living in deep water and heat fire. According to the example, empire are building 36 gunstars, so great projects, cost great manpower, material resources, you mightn’t know, Liyidan spending entire empire 25% tax income for those projects. Many families were destoried, many becautiful stars were throat cuted.” A support asked him,“Honor Windon, I want to ask you when time 36 gunstars will be done?” Windon answered,“This is good asked, according to their plan, possiblity will done after 5 centuries. But, I think that time limit will longer than the plan. Moreover empire isn’t good sleeping every day, because still have strength opponent S.Country. Once it’s have happened outburst affairs, the projects will no end in possible.”
Another supporter asked him again,“Acctully, are we only this reason to together gainst premier Liyidan? Honor Windon, could you explained more?”
Windon said a loud,“I just want to explain the question this time, please to invite project workers from Gunstars of Double Stars, then we can see.” Several workers having groan on the sickbeds, they were set and helped by nurses and doctors near the rostrum. Windon slowly bowed, and the camera lens fllowing him move to move. Audiences would clear watch dialogue from Windon and sick workers. In the lens, Windon healthy body and weaked bodies those form to a color contrasted clearly. Kindly asked,“How are you? Are you OK?” Workers one by one answered, all lying on the mobile sickbed. One of worker pale face and feeble breathing, he said to him,“O…OK.” When words end, his body began falter and falter moving, couldn’t controlled a twitch. Doctors and nurses quickly closed to help, the hall began to tumulting. Windon slowly standed up, and spoke,“Quiet, please to quiet. I throught that worker talking something to me, but I have no idea now. I think I should show some formerly face, let’s look!” The screen expressly show those workers basic information. Simply differend before, full of energy and sonsy people have became only skin and bone. Windon talking more,“They’re a few of billion patients.”
People started discussion, a supporter asked him,“Really? Why we don’t know?”
Windon had a smile, spoke,“Good, good qusestion. I didn’t believe theses thing in the first time, when I see the information, I have to believe.” The information showed in screen as soon as possible. They’ve watched that in coincide again. One supporter couldn’t controlled himself, and said,“I know this man, he’s my civilian of star, the empire promulgated his abscondence yesterday.” Windon again,“They’re may be your countrymen on rostrum, please to carefull see!” A supporter suddenly standed up, then go straight to rostrum. He careful surveied, more saw more angry. He’s strong will to control angry fire from himself, and talked to Windon,“I’m sure his my people of planet, I have little thinking he became this face, The empire have announced dead on list, Kapaph is one of them!”
Some people started to angry beat senator desks, and aloud abused.
Windon spoke,“Thank you, please go back your seat.” Windon turned to say people,“The fact in front of eyes, our premier having lie! He’s twiddle with us!” A supporter standed up and asked,“Honor Windon, Why didn’t stop the tragedy happend before? Why?” She’s an exciting. Windon answered, “Please calm down, this question very good asked! Those cases we should stopped to, but it’s weren’t know all people, When I knew the thing its too late, my power is very limited. Because the premier keep a firm hand on parliament, How get force to resist? This is one of main reason why I secretly meeting with you.” Another supporter asked him,“I want to ask Honor Windon, What’s proof Have you? How to prove the parliament was controlled? Would you explaint?” then a supporter suddently stand up and told the supporter that, “Do you think these cases can’t proved?”
“Right!” “He’s right.” Gabble talking from people.
Windon answered again,“Calm down, please, listen to me. Now that some people don’t believe, I want to do a small test with us. Two years ago, had a discussion meeting of great project building of G.I.M.E. right? We’re a member of ten thousand senators of empire? Good, please remember voteed that day, then watch the screen.” People suddenly likes jump heart out, a man angry shout,“What’s happened? I’m sure voted the nay, but why not!” An other man shout,“Why! It’s changed!” Windon spoked,“Do you discover a question too?” People dispatience. Windon asked them,“Ladys and gentlemen, Who knows these senators?” men and women shake an one’s head, some people exclamation.
“So bad! If I didn’t see the fact, I couldn’t dare believe this true.” “Real bastard!” “Darned.” People’s angry emotion more and more evidence.
Windon looked over everbody, then continued to say,“Are they proofs? Yes, they are. Our parliament such like those. Only 3000 people Really care parliament? Where’re others?” People angry cry and loud, Windon spoke again,“Please callmness, ladys and gentlmen, callmness.”
People controlled themself in difficulty.
Windon asked,“These years, how many additional money do you earn? Only know some parts of totall in possible. Don’t worry, I have collectied incomes of all senators since 100 years ago, including other income concern. Ladys and gentlemen, scrutiny action. The names were amended by me. But, If you are one of them, you surely understood! People began to read the smiluation information on hands, used finger to press information, or looking for others.” A supporter had a sigh, then said, “Premier is a cheat, he shouldn’t cheating me!” People reading and watch each other and face to face. The result have started in hearts.
Windon had a deep breath again, eyes glitter, speech aloud,“We exactly understanding Why together here. It’s certain that every effect must have a cause.” We need a brave leader to guidance us at future. Nowaday, Liyidan’s weak mind making many suffer to everyong. Our future needn’t him in service, the empire future must not hold in his hand! Remember at former, We have tried to use all kinds of peaceable method for future, but facts in eyes, we all know. For change the flesh and blood, the sword posibblity to final means. Let’s battle for future!”
Surge feelings of the massess in the hall. Some people bravely standed up on the rostrum, said aloud,“Liyidan! Down! Liyidan! Down!” People too, at a stretch, whole hall such deafening.
Windon suddently recalled a more impressible topic haven’t publiced,“But, It’s enough!” single depend on those proofes can prove Liyidan’s crimes.
A team of military officer walked out from rostrum back. The first that is a heavyweight battlecoat officer, his Lenton, Defence commander of Leitibu. He has serviced for Windon since 150 years ago, and one of favorite generals. At the fore part, he’s commanded great army to battle S army. The rich actual combat experiences were admired reason. Lenton had a salute for Windon, then spoke,“Battle-line have readied, please order!”
Angry people forget himself, cried war again and again.
Battle fleets were moving on the sky, billions of soldiers standing by, more twenty commanders of galaxies one by one requested dircetion of Windon from theirs demesnes. Windon looked into the distance, gentle have a tidy manteau, then stepped on battle spaceship in exclaiming, fly to sky. Followers stepped on other spaceship too as impatient to wait. Whole Leitibu were boiling, paraders hight cried, people were prayed, people were blessing, because they have families and friends joined the insurgence army. The main force had making up by 20 galaxies from original empire armies. They’re totalled to 3.1 billion soldiers and officer. Other armies were form by engage soldiers and voluntary army of empire, totalled to 4 billion or so. Military strength sum to 7.1 billion.
A sliver of meteor nicked Blueness night, with the romance colour in their light and warm.
Liyidan were enjoying to wonderful flame flower near the Sunshine fire stone in spirits. Moment forget worries of works and
put down busy, then to do some interested thing, that will help to relax stress from works. Liyidan has middle stature, like to dress civies. Aged face and silvery voice, heart with the best discernment. He’s fiddle with careful, but flame suddently changed colours, more and more weak, he’s woke up bad sign. It’s never thing such like that before, since the empire constituted. Strange, once G.I.M.E. had a great advancement, the Sunshine fire sure stronger flame, exactly direct proportion on empire rise and fall. Therefore when the Sunshine fire hight rising, liyidan will become very gladness. Because know every thing were controlled by himself. But he did make a serious mistake that result of happen crisis in the empire. He didn’t know the insurgence from the Windon’s Leitibu, who union 20 galaxies, above 7 billion soldiers against his empire still to after-uprising, public the speech, see the information. An information officer fluster submited a report,“Honor premier, Mr.Windon have mutinied 5 hours ago in the Leitibu, and company with 20 galaxies,7 billion soldiers!” Liyidan didn’t dare believe self-ears this time. Subconscious asked,“Why this time told me! 5 hours passed.” The officer reported,“I’m so sorry, because the rebellion force malice hide facts. Bring on right rate of information down, therefore…” Liyidan angry shouted,“Out! Get out here! I need calmness!” He’s sat down on the chair, put the unusual voice under chair in second, then thought about,“I didn’t know my old friend such treat to me. Windon, I misread you.”
A past event fast thought. When Liyidan was young and a colonel of empire, he’s knew Colonel.Windon, both same colonel. They’re graduated in Strategics Institution of Higher Learning of Empire (G.I.M.E.War College). They’re sent to survey of weapon pollution of Earth Start as soon as possible nominate.
Liyidan and Windon get off the spaceship, immediately went to the plloution area. Because the empire is battling years and years, months and months. Result to a series of weapon pollution day by day increasing. Human difficult living in the pollution area. But vicious circles again and again, many animals living in these places, bodies were unusual changed, also gave more and more black shadows to empire. Windon looked at the pollution hurst, stranger colors full dye a lot of piece jungle. Unknow animalcule overgrow on the useless well. Over ash forg and died trees on the hillside, big choked smell smoking over there, it’s couldn’t suffering. People appeared unlucky foreboding.
Liyidan busy worked to investigation with other staffs. A staff spoke,“Colonel Liyidan, Windon. I found many bad animal bodies in front of the swamp area. Evidence to show those animals were bitten by huge creature, there’s B.creatures territory places in sure.”
Windon gazed the huge feetprint, then feeling bad. He asked,“Conlonel Liyidan.What time will we finish the survey?”
Liyidan answered,“Conlonel Liyidan, don’t worry about that. We will finish sooner, please waiting for me.”
Windon going on,“You and me, add others, only 100 people, It’s not a good idear in this way,”
Suddently, terrible cry from the hursts, the voice resound hollow a long time. Windom firmly hold the laser pistol, said aloud,“Brave men, strengthen defensive! Pick up the plan!” Leaves of branch began to discomposure tingle, heavy stepps with the smash leaves sound far to near. It’s alike a huge form moving to outside from inside. Soldiers arranged groups per 5 or 7 people, round and round their conlonels.
Bit by bit clear, a monster. Liyidan had a surprise,“Wo, such huge B.creatures!”
The B.creatures are poison-wildlife, because of growing in weapon pollution area long time, then Multiply to unusual change creatures, extremity danger. Windon stared to the 6 meter high B.creature, crimson body growing colors of rainbow poison horn. Often blast stench throw off, Grotty long bola-tail draging behind back, leave over some long and twisted way of marks. Strong and vigorous claws stepping, deep footprint leaved behind. The B.creatures tingle standing tine-ear, purple light from covetous eyes, Saliva or liquid running from the mouth and sharp teeth. That time, its mouth spurt out the deep call,“Ao! Ao~!”
Liyidan said aloud,“The B.creature is calling companies, We must back here! Speed to ready!” The B.creature began fast running to groups. Empire soldiers had bend over backward to shoot. Numbers of flames foercely shoot to its body, but never delay B.creature speed. 100 meter, 90 meter, 80 meter, the distance was closing. Men’s will would be wobbling. Windon quickly take out the laser sword, and operated bomb-type, fierce threw to B.creature. It’s ate off the sword, everyone had a great surprise. This sword system very currently, abroad using. Becuae of high class security and strong function. Can closing combat and some distance shooting. Also can set up a part of repair. Also the especiall point is with safe password or other special code that start up explode system.
Windon was calmly standing, absolutely standing, and shouted,“Hold up! Listening to me, opening fire!”
Soldiers had all strength to trigger. The B.creature still rush running to them under big fire. heavy stepps were more and more coming, everybody’s heart speed up, but continued to shoot, shoot. 30 meter, 20 meter, 10 meter, Liyidan sweat was running on forehead. Sudden, B.creature had a cruel shouted, then weak down to groud,“BOMB!” from Its stomach, green blood was emiting from wound hole. Although B.creatures couldn’t move, but soldiers’s eyes still fling places, for fear second expressed.
Liyidan undestood the danger was coming, spoke, “Fall back to the base, get out here! Hurry up!”
They’re fast running out the bad places. The B.creatures called beyond…
In the battle tank, Windon slowly spoke to him,“Colonel Liyidan, if the thing in two minds, you and me will died here.”
Liyidan still had a little fear, but secretly felicitate the disaster.
Happy said in no time,“This B.creature have good nose, Where’s weapon pollution, they’re will be there!”
Windon “ah ah” smiled and talked,“Needn’t mind, I can master everything, no one closed us. I have a good idea, we’re going to the small bar tonight. Ah! Aha~ha~!”
They’re became good friends and companies since the case happened. Till to now, they’re depend unremitting will on works, overcome layer upon layer difficulties, finally climbed up the highest leader positions. He’s really unknew, Why the accompanier with him at the former blood fight, now instant changed, became a stumbling block of empire. Windon althought couldn’t cilmbed up his position, but great honour at same, It’s only under one man. The rather that go through fire and water many years, he’s actuality don’t believe why happened.
“Honour premier, honour premier.” An information officer broke his thinking, the officer continued to report,
“Emergencies meeting, senators waiting for you.” Liyidan slow standing, then went to Empire premier Meeting Hall.
In the palace of D.S. great birthday party still holding. People smile, both degustation, enjoy wonderful birthday programes. A young perrty lady gentle and cultivated walking on the bandstand, applause rose up. She’s glad speak,“Thank you, thanks for your support. I’ll offer a classical song for you.《Dream Land Story》” Sweetness and fair music along with her dancing, The story is… It’s said that long long ago, there’s ayoung preety songer feet on the Dream Land, She’s surprise discovered many fly creatures able to song. It’s very blessedness, very exciting to song, the voice so great. Suddently, a difference ray winged to her from sky. It’s a view as a distorted, indistinct shadow appearance of something, It’s a light door. A wing girl smile closing her, and kind talking. Then leaded her to the light door, the light as smaller to smaller, door closed finally. Two years ago, the songer go back to home, her song pleasanter to listen, inebriation. She became famer songer of G.I.M.E. 3 years late… The singing voice is so great, as the heroine of story.
Onhogo power said,“Good, very good!” Applause from audiences again, seens satisfaction full stop.
An officer stealth near Onhogo, low talked,“Honour Onhogo, generals waiting for you in the Universe-eye Info-center.”
He did a wrinkling brow, turn to speak sideward,“Beautiful Ms GianJing, I need a little time to meeting, would you help me to take a charge in my birthday celebration some?”
GianJing felt a surprise,“Honest Onhogo, It’s my pleasure, thanks for your regards. Please to reassurance.”
He’s departed from guesters, palace, to step on spaceship on the Universe-eye Infocenter way. A group of deffense fleet landing on, then tag along his ship flying.
Onhogo sat down the chair of Command module, tasteless asked aside,“Captain Sidink, take the meeting info to me.” Sidink strict answered that,“No problem, honour Onhogo.”
He’s careful reading the info, he’s more read most unclear, to look outer the fash fleet, silently thinking about. At this moment, outerlook weren’t important in his mind, he needs a result, the empire ending of future. He’s phoned to the premier,
Onhogo said,“Honour premier, I’m Onhogo, I understood in substance.”
Liyidan said,“I wouldn’t believe Honour Windom did this case, What’s good suggestion?”
Onhogo talked,“The cases is up to this condition, I thinking that if negotiation was broked, It’s doubt to arms.”
Liyidan said,“I absloute know this point, It’s useless, even we cut territory of country for peace. I very know Windon, such he’ll till to end!”
Onhogo lower voice,“We can continue to use old idea deal with this man, do you think so? Honour premier?”
Liyidan as same of him,“I allow you execute the T.S.M. plan in the occasion requires. But don’t forget,
We’re face to former-companies as Windon, I afraid the plan won’t done!”
Onhogo smile said,“Honour premier, many ways to done, But I thinking that is the suitable way.”
Liyidan thought in two minds. After a little, he again replied,“Nice! I’m allow to you use the plan again if Universe Star plunged in crisis! ”
Onhogo said,“Thanks my lord!”
Onhogo’s face showed a ghost of snaky. He’s recalling conquer former enemies one by one in the scenes, brought mind in the War-Competion, and how to defeat opponents one by one. Aslo looked back on the widely sky, amazingly speed destroy to tough enemies of recalcitrance. He still believe the war will be win without T.S.M. plan, it’s kill a chicken needn’t on an ox.
Sidink broke his mind, reported,“Honour Onhogo, its according to the new info, Windon have renunciated
to G.I.M.E. on the blazeing in the whole, also allianced with 20 galaxies, 7 billion soldiers, hundreds of billion battle
group of fleets dig up the hatchet to G.I.M.E., and the reason is, the reason…”
Onhogo asked him,“What’s the reason? Please talk.” Sidink replied,“Yes, my lord. The reason that is premier Liyidan has controlled parliament of empire such several hundred years ago, also listed to tens of serious accusals.”
Onhogo Knowing said,“I know, prepare to fleets at once. We must arrived to Mubu star, Flamemend star convoked units, then prepare to out for a battle!”
Sidink said aloud,“Yes, sir!” Spaceship dashed out the aerosphere of star. Exhibiting the ocean of universe on face. The Universeeye Information Center piece by piece to became big, became huge. There’s supper space info-port, 3 million square kilometer expanse. The importantest military base in D.S, Number of solar systems are involved in forces. Onhogo ran to the Second Battle Headquarter of D.S. when get off. Tens of empire higer generals were waiting for him in the Meeting Center. They’re standing up at once while he’s arriverd. Onhogo sited down as a draught, then had a wave to everyone, spoke,“Please sit down, don’t standing.”
A gerneal too impatient to wait,“Honour Onhogo, Windon has leaded the rebel army to break through first line of defence of Universe Empire Star. And general Gui Wu Guo is battling to S. invasion armies under fury. The Empire Star is attacked between S.Invasion and rebellion, They’re hold us under war predicament, it’s stared in face. In addition, General Mateph fleets are returning to the Empire Star on way.”
Onhogo had a pat with hand on council board. Then slow said,“Thanks for general Bianja, Who’s want to say more something? please.”
Gneral Peterhanla is near Bianja, he’s first talked,“Honour Onhogo, Because our armies are under bad war predicament, please listen to me.”
Onhogo wasn’t at all attented to their saying, and ferocious face became terror much more.
After moment, he’s asked,“When will Unbeatable GunStar done? Who can tell me that!?” They’re still just standing, no one replied. He’s crinkled, and talked,“I saw the information. It’s press hard on, Who dare to act wild in G.I.M.E., sure be can’t passed in any event! Take my order, the main armies going to the Empire Star in second, then battle to Windon egg! We will going meeting on way! ”
On the way, the meeting is continuing. General Peterhanla said,“According to the information form rebelon on screen, the emenies will use preponderance of soldiers power to pounce us in possibility without fail, It’s overpowering and total battle scheme. Undifficulty to look the attacking way of rebelon from the Empire Starschart, please pay attention to these places.”
Imitate screen showed some solid constellation. He’s talked more,“The rebelon have speed to attacking at present. It’s estimated to arrive there 24 hours later, and will make effective attack.”
Bianja asked,“Our starsfield armies would strengthen power to delay enemy attacking speed in ability or not?” Peterhanla replied that,“If have enough backup power, but our armies will be disastrous.”
Onhogo talked,“We need time. If only that have enough time, stick to victimization more in war.”
Peterhanla replied,“Yes, honour. I’ll execute in a minute.”
That time, other general Jamno asked him,“Excuse me, I want to ask another question.”
Onhogo answered,“Sure, talk please.”
Jamno spoke,“Enemy armies tend to mucilage-glue in battle, military strength whether withdraw to the universe Empire star about, and make time to fight of guard?”
Bianja replied,“This is a good idea. but total withdrawed, will enormously strike Dragons Battlestar armies’s morale, and there’re besieged now, I afraid the result very serious.”
Onhogo laugh,then talked “General Bianja is right with reason, once Twin Dragon Battlestars fell, It must be help to rebelon armies attacking force. And thereby work disbennifit to us. It’s make very disbennifit influence to other star places. G.I.M.E. can’t fell back, even one man with battle last time!”
General Dara was near Jamno, his asked,“Honour Onhogo, for armies can faster speed in battle, I hope we can transport troops and material of star to replace other that one by one circle in succession action. Is it right?”
Onhogo had a look to Dara, then replied,“Right, this’s way if suitable condition. Arrange now.”
Dara answer,“thank you, I’m execute it.”
Onhogo asked,“What about unite-armies everyplaces? General Bianja.”
He’s replied,“Honour Onhogo, they’re on the way. It’s estimate landing-time 10 hours late will be arrived. And our armies will be arrived at 7 hours late in succession.”
Onhogo talked,“Not bad! We must lead up speed than Mr. Windon step, otherwise dally over opportunity combat, unmanageable on blast.”
Peterhanla spoke again,“General GuiWuGuo has again suggested to add reinforcements at one minute ago. And prermier Liyidan wish to send parts of fleets for rescue action.”
He’s replied,“I know, I order General Dara lead 5 million soldiers, 50 million units of fleets to rescue in the twin Dragon Battlestars, assistance General GuiWuGuo clear up on precipice!”
“Yes, sir. I’ll go.” Dara replied.
Onhogo continued to talking prewar prepared with generals. Numberless of battle fleets hight speed to U.Empire Star in the widest space. They’re possibility saluted to glory of Empire, or humiliation.
The birthday celebration continued to open like a full swing. and that time, Sunshine continent has greeted
early morning. People couldn’t tire because of jubilation one night till a succession of fleet gunshots had
savage broken sweetdream at immersion.
There’re sent out message those millions of rebelon were leaded to casus belli by Windon in the info-Centers, station of Alleywayes and avenues. People started to alarm, and vied go home with each other. street people as broke moving hubs and pieces, complete quiet. A little mouse put out small head itself from hole, as a wonder sneak looking at running away people. An no body claim of chair was tumbled and ramed by a fit of strong wind. Immediately sweeping confused dust with great intensity. A lot of rubbish were presents of environmental after festival, as headless fly wallopped by wind action.
Some people watched news and hid in home;
some people prepared to go to constry side with family;
some people brave tried to communication far friends, pursue facts of war;
some people worried about families of military service.
Dead-drunk officers or soldiers as heard a bawl on head, tumbled and ramed went to battalion, some arranges of trains carried groups of soldiery, then return to the centralize of military affairs base.
All cities hang over uncomfortable emotions, likes a disorderly commotion or disturbance in whole land. People didn’t cry for Onhogo birthday who begin pray for friends or families. Miss.GianJing or wisdomer busy dealed with confusion happenings. Royalty-guarderTightly keep watch every corner of palace outside, fear sneak attacking of enemy.
Deco came to front door of palace with soldiers protection, then announced to everyone,“Ladys and gentlemen, I’m regularity E.soldier Captain of V.Family, my name’s Deco. Deep honour to meet you. Because of empire locating a civil war edge, Onhogo ordered me to defence palace. Please don’t frighten, and don’t worry about these. In aside, Charle.Guan Ⅳ couple or others should fast go back to the bedroom of palace. To ensure security, I’ll send 2 Royalty-armed escorts for His Royal Highness.”
It’s uncomplete saying, a sticked to crutch midlife-man walk out from guests, and asked,“Honour Deco, 2 Royalty-armed escorts may be too smaller, allow my family armed-escorts to join defend job. One of that I can try one’s best faith for master, two of that I can abate Honour Deco’s burden, Do you think so?” A young officer leaded a team of soldiers to here at front door of palace, he’s saluted,“Report to Grigadier Qu Qing, V.Family Universe Fleet Colonel JiaJianChun and units waiting for your orders in 20 kilometre distance of palace.”
Qu Qing was born in D.S. generations service for V.Family, he’s D.S. Universe Fleet Level 1 Grigadier.
Deco had a saw JiaJianChun, then smile spoke,“We’re same, It’s never mind, OK, OK.” People got a load of him at coincide. He’s young and handsome, remarkable, with Royal-warrior honor, show heroic bearing hair.
Qu Qing smile replied,“Hum, good, take order yourself! Never slow Protection responsibility.”
JiaJianChun replied,“Yes, Grigadier.”
Charle.Guan Ⅳ cuted argumentum, talked,“Thanks for your regard V.Family. In this condition, everyone should go back, and units allowed stay. Another, Grigadier Qu Qing go with me, I have important thing talk to you.” Deco knew somewhat, he’s thought,“That old fox crab my great, How should I report to my lord?”
Qu Qing understood, and talked,“It’s my pleasure.”
Then GianJing said,“Since the party have finished, I should go back headquarter too. I’m very glad and extrermely honoured meet everybody today. at the same time, I grateful to your fervor entertaining, and wish meet you next time.”
Guests said goodbye to Charle. Guan Ⅳ too, then one by one leaved for home.
Qu Qing followed after Charle. Guan Ⅳ came to King meetingroom. When sat down, he kneel down with a “Bu Ton”, then cried to apologize.
Charle. Guan Ⅳ promptly supported his up, and surprise asked,“Uncle Qu Qing, something slow talked. I wouldn’t receive this manner. standing up then say, please.”
Qu Qing excited to cry his tear out, and talked,“My force weake, many years couldn’t service for responsibility, have not good portection for V.Family.”
Charle. Guan Ⅳ slow talked,“Alas, V.Family under these conditions because that be forced.Onhogo having great power, influenc. We weren’t his opponent. It’s not blame and because of you. I only complain haven’t got enough experience and skills myself.”
He’s supported Qu Qing with hands, then sad down on chair, Qu Qing slow talked,“G.I.M.E. on the life and death line,V.Family should reflect on this time.”
Charle replied,“That’s right, Uncle. His anabasis action is bode ill rather than well, difficult divination. V.Family may be able to brace up royal hero way again, correctitude faith and statute. Thought… thought I still worry about the Gunstars power are mightiness in our mind, we’re whether…?”
Qu Qing letter smile, answered,“Don’t fear that Unbeatable Gunstars, one of them is only building near life star of D.S. It’s wasted of long time 200 years at least, then may be finished. The rather that the empire is diffence to former today. The complete day is no end time. And the furthest regret, Onhogo brought the great mass of armies elite of V.Family, but his some of all contract armies elite still defend in D.S. Even we can all right to thing, national power will tend to vacuum estate.”
Charle. Guan Ⅳ answerd,“Words with truth, He’s took the main armies elite, We also watch out for other against-force’s intrigues.” Onhogo had staied 3 contract armies, they’re very experiences in battle. Deco, ZuoGe, Pinorbarwi control them. Wisdomer Deco is noble of D.S. he’s called “Heaven-Wisdomer”. His unit called “Sky-dragon Warrior”, they’re good at sky battle. Wisdomer Zuo has called“Supernatural Speed Counsellor”, He’s controling the Different-armour Warriors, they’re difference nation hero engage-warriors, great ability to land battle. And Pinorbarwi has named “Steel General”, control aeroamphibious engage-armry “S.Army”. This is second to none elite unit in V.Family. We have to alert. I think in this conditions, We must unite friendship power to chart great plan.”
Charle.Guan Ⅳ supplemented,“I remember Minkim.Guan of V.Family this time again.”
Qu Qing asked,“Is he Sea nation Minkim?”
Charle answered,“Yes, he’s. Sea nation have source with V.Family 1000 years ago. For overlord position, not spare to down status. And marry sea nation. Nowaday, great elder Minkim.Guan has V.Family blood. Although power on hands, but has low-style, dislike to society study. So called the Silence Elder in his presidial.”
Qu Qing had a quiet considering, a few minutes late said,“Honour Charle. Guan Ⅳ, you’re right. Sea nation although had married with V.Family. But It’s not behave of real help us. We must call upon heroes everywhere for V.Family. I have a plan. Could I…? ”
He’s replied,“Please free talk, if this can help V.Family.” Qu Qing talked,“Three days late, V.Family will have an emergency meeting concerning civil war of empire, I will invite V.Family else heroes or famerperson at attendance. That day our can find faithful talent helpers. Add power of family. The first can fill up the vacuum of family power. The second can keep away Onhogo’s expansion power in effect.”
“That’s a good idea. I hope my family is real V.Family of D.S. this isn’t fiddle puppet!”
Charle continued to ask him,“What are they characters will attendance at time?”
Qu Qing thought a few minute, replied,“The meeting on the way, hundreds of person contacted, they’re occultfa of king warrior of Die-hard nation, Noble warrior Terrading of Apparition nation, General Bianja’s daughter Bianna, Emotion-master Farllow, Long nose Grandma of witch leader of Witch Organization, Adventurer Martin.

Someone place do not, there is a small planet of Ganbao near Universe Star of G.I.M.E., the planet name is Leitibu, planet cubagea is a half of living star of D.S., there have plenty wood resource. Plain and forest are main earth surface character of Leitibu. And the ruler name is Windon, he’s one of 10 grand elders of G.I.M.E.he’s senator of parliament of empire too. Today, he’s talking a shaking-world thing with thousands of nobles and officers or others in the secret fortress himself. It’s concern that how to pull down empire, then establish new Galaxy Republic.
The secret fortress has builded on the barranca of canyon. Canyon outer was made up with black stones, they’re hardness. It’s cann’t arrived but flying and climbing. There is a long long stream Under canyon, clear stream always attract many wild-animal. Top of canyon have growing flourish forest, birds and beasts everywhere, some times guards of fortress are fear of fierce wild-animals forest.

A lot of Leitibu special-force soldiers firmly watching every important pass. Difference group of fleet assigned to Sky of forest. Gentle swind blowed the canyon, then made a little swind sound, It’s looks like pouring out a hurricane is coming.
The center of fortress is magnificence meeting hall, there could contain thousands of people in a meeting. Black and gold powerful coat, he’s good speeching on audiences applause. Fiery eyes fast see to everyone, thousands of eyes watching himself. He’s heartened, exciting face bare with thinking. Face to 20 galaxies supporters, he’s clarity know today will become first day to change empire history. Tomorrow, he will become really leader in people eyes, great hero in people mind.
Windon had pressed show-button of rostrum with hand, screens of wonderful digital simulation pictures from top of high air. The rotund loud speech continuing,“I know this day is a special day, because Onhogo was born that time in 420 years ago. Empire have making a country celebration for him. Today is another special day too, it’s first day of open new the universe, stride forward with hands to hands.” Beforetime, some people have gotten welfare living underrule of Liyidan, but is only belong to a part of people! Because still have a lot pats of people living in deep water and heat fire. According to the example, empire are building 36 gunstars, so great projects, cost great manpower, material resources, you mightn’t know, Liyidan spending entire empire 25% tax income for those projects. Many families were destoried, many becautiful stars were throat cuted.” A support asked him,“Honor Windon, I want to ask you when time 36 gunstars will be done?” Windon answered,“This is good asked, according to their plan, possiblity will done after 5 centuries. But, I think that time limit will longer than the plan. Moreover empire isn’t good sleeping every day, because still have strength opponent S.Country. Once it’s have happened outburst affairs, the projects will no end in possible.”
Another supporter asked him again,“Acctully, are we only this reason to together gainst premier Liyidan? Honor Windon, could you explained more?”
Windon said a loud,“I just want to explain the question this time, please to invite project workers from Gunstars of Double Stars, then we can see.” Several workers having groan on the sickbeds, they were set and helped by nurses and doctors near the rostrum. Windon slowly bowed, and the camera lens fllowing him move to move. Audiences would clear watch dialogue from Windon and sick workers. In the lens, Windon healthy body and weaked bodies those form to a color contrasted clearly. Kindly asked,“How are you? Are you OK?” Workers one by one answered, all lying on the mobile sickbed. One of worker pale face and feeble breathing, he said to him,“O…OK.” When words end, his body began falter and falter moving, couldn’t controlled a twitch. Doctors and nurses quickly closed to help, the hall began to tumulting. Windon slowly standed up, and spoke,“Quiet, please to quiet. I throught that worker talking something to me, but I have no idea now. I think I should show some formerly face, let’s look!” The screen expressly show those workers basic information. Simply differend before, full of energy and sonsy people have became only skin and bone. Windon talking more,“They’re a few of billion patients.”
People started discussion, a supporter asked him,“Really? Why we don’t know?”
Windon had a smile, spoke,“Good, good qusestion. I didn’t believe theses thing in the first time, when I see the information, I have to believe.” The information showed in screen as soon as possible. They’ve watched that in coincide again. One supporter couldn’t controlled himself, and said,“I know this man, he’s my civilian of star, the empire promulgated his abscondence yesterday.” Windon again,“They’re may be your countrymen on rostrum, please to carefull see!” A supporter suddenly standed up, then go straight to rostrum. He careful surveied, more saw more angry. He’s strong will to control angry fire from himself, and talked to Windon,“I’m sure his my people of planet, I have little thinking he became this face, The empire have announced dead on list, Kapaph is one of them!”
Some people started to angry beat senator desks, and aloud abused.
Windon spoke,“Thank you, please go back your seat.” Windon turned to say people,“The fact in front of eyes, our premier having lie! He’s twiddle with us!” A supporter standed up and asked,“Honor Windon, Why didn’t stop the tragedy happend before? Why?” She’s an exciting. Windon answered, “Please calm down, this question very good asked! Those cases we should stopped to, but it’s weren’t know all people, When I knew the thing its too late, my power is very limited. Because the premier keep a firm hand on parliament, How get force to resist? This is one of main reason why I secretly meeting with you.” Another supporter asked him,“I want to ask Honor Windon, What’s proof Have you? How to prove the parliament was controlled? Would you explaint?” then a supporter suddently stand up and told the supporter that, “Do you think these cases can’t proved?”
“Right!” “He’s right.” Gabble talking from people.
Windon answered again,“Calm down, please, listen to me. Now that some people don’t believe, I want to do a small test with us. Two years ago, had a discussion meeting of great project building of G.I.M.E. right? We’re a member of ten thousand senators of empire? Good, please remember voteed that day, then watch the screen.” People suddenly likes jump heart out, a man angry shout,“What’s happened? I’m sure voted the nay, but why not!” An other man shout,“Why! It’s changed!” Windon spoked,“Do you discover a question too?” People dispatience. Windon asked them,“Ladys and gentlemen, Who knows these senators?” men and women shake an one’s head, some people exclamation.
“So bad! If I didn’t see the fact, I couldn’t dare believe this true.” “Real bastard!” “Darned.” People’s angry emotion more and more evidence.
Windon looked over everbody, then continued to say,“Are they proofs? Yes, they are. Our parliament such like those. Only 3000 people Really care parliament? Where’re others?” People angry cry and loud, Windon spoke again,“Please callmness, ladys and gentlmen, callmness.”
People controlled themself in difficulty.
Windon asked,“These years, how many additional money do you earn? Only know some parts of totall in possible. Don’t worry, I have collectied incomes of all senators since 100 years ago, including other income concern. Ladys and gentlemen, scrutiny action. The names were amended by me. But, If you are one of them, you surely understood! People began to read the smiluation information on hands, used finger to press information, or looking for others.” A supporter had a sigh, then said, “Premier is a cheat, he shouldn’t cheating me!” People reading and watch each other and face to face. The result have started in hearts.
Windon had a deep breath again, eyes glitter, speech aloud,“We exactly understanding Why together here. It’s certain that every effect must have a cause.” We need a brave leader to guidance us at future. Nowaday, Liyidan’s weak mind making many suffer to everyong. Our future needn’t him in service, the empire future must not hold in his hand! Remember at former, We have tried to use all kinds of peaceable method for future, but facts in eyes, we all know. For change the flesh and blood, the sword posibblity to final means. Let’s battle for future!”
Surge feelings of the massess in the hall. Some people bravely standed up on the rostrum, said aloud,“Liyidan! Down! Liyidan! Down!” People too, at a stretch, whole hall such deafening.
Windon suddently recalled a more impressible topic haven’t publiced,“But, It’s enough!” single depend on those proofes can prove Liyidan’s crimes.
A team of military officer walked out from rostrum back. The first that is a heavyweight battlecoat officer, his Lenton, Defence commander of Leitibu. He has serviced for Windon since 150 years ago, and one of favorite generals. At the fore part, he’s commanded great army to battle S army. The rich actual combat experiences were admired reason. Lenton had a salute for Windon, then spoke,“Battle-line have readied, please order!”
Angry people forget himself, cried war again and again.
Battle fleets were moving on the sky, billions of soldiers standing by, more twenty commanders of galaxies one by one requested dircetion of Windon from theirs demesnes. Windon looked into the distance, gentle have a tidy manteau, then stepped on battle spaceship in exclaiming, fly to sky. Followers stepped on other spaceship too as impatient to wait. Whole Leitibu were boiling, paraders hight cried, people were prayed, people were blessing, because they have families and friends joined the insurgence army. The main force had making up by 20 galaxies from original empire armies. They’re totalled to 3.1 billion soldiers and officer. Other armies were form by engage soldiers and voluntary army of empire, totalled to 4 billion or so. Military strength sum to 7.1 billion.
A sliver of meteor nicked Blueness night, with the romance colour in their light and warm.
Liyidan were enjoying to wonderful flame flower near the Sunshine fire stone in spirits. Moment forget worries of works and
put down busy, then to do some interested thing, that will help to relax stress from works. Liyidan has middle stature, like to dress civies. Aged face and silvery voice, heart with the best discernment. He’s fiddle with careful, but flame suddently changed colours, more and more weak, he’s woke up bad sign. It’s never thing such like that before, since the empire constituted. Strange, once G.I.M.E. had a great advancement, the Sunshine fire sure stronger flame, exactly direct proportion on empire rise and fall. Therefore when the Sunshine fire hight rising, liyidan will become very gladness. Because know every thing were controlled by himself. But he did make a serious mistake that result of happen crisis in the empire. He didn’t know the insurgence from the Windon’s Leitibu, who union 20 galaxies, above 7 billion soldiers against his empire still to after-uprising, public the speech, see the information. An information officer fluster submited a report,“Honor premier, Mr.Windon have mutinied 5 hours ago in the Leitibu, and company with 20 galaxies,7 billion soldiers!” Liyidan didn’t dare believe self-ears this time. Subconscious asked,“Why this time told me! 5 hours passed.” The officer reported,“I’m so sorry, because the rebellion force malice hide facts. Bring on right rate of information down, therefore…” Liyidan angry shouted,“Out! Get out here! I need calmness!” He’s sat down on the chair, put the unusual voice under chair in second, then thought about,“I didn’t know my old friend such treat to me. Windon, I misread you.”
A past event fast thought. When Liyidan was young and a colonel of empire, he’s knew Colonel.Windon, both same colonel. They’re graduated in Strategics Institution of Higher Learning of Empire (G.I.M.E.War College). They’re sent to survey of weapon pollution of Earth Start as soon as possible nominate.
Liyidan and Windon get off the spaceship, immediately went to the plloution area. Because the empire is battling years and years, months and months. Result to a series of weapon pollution day by day increasing. Human difficult living in the pollution area. But vicious circles again and again, many animals living in these places, bodies were unusual changed, also gave more and more black shadows to empire. Windon looked at the pollution hurst, stranger colors full dye a lot of piece jungle. Unknow animalcule overgrow on the useless well. Over ash forg and died trees on the hillside, big choked smell smoking over there, it’s couldn’t suffering. People appeared unlucky foreboding.
Liyidan busy worked to investigation with other staffs. A staff spoke,“Colonel Liyidan, Windon. I found many bad animal bodies in front of the swamp area. Evidence to show those animals were bitten by huge creature, there’s B.creatures territory places in sure.”
Windon gazed the huge feetprint, then feeling bad. He asked,“Conlonel Liyidan.What time will we finish the survey?”
Liyidan answered,“Conlonel Liyidan, don’t worry about that. We will finish sooner, please waiting for me.”
Windon going on,“You and me, add others, only 100 people, It’s not a good idear in this way,”
Suddently, terrible cry from the hursts, the voice resound hollow a long time. Windom firmly hold the laser pistol, said aloud,“Brave men, strengthen defensive! Pick up the plan!” Leaves of branch began to discomposure tingle, heavy stepps with the smash leaves sound far to near. It’s alike a huge form moving to outside from inside. Soldiers arranged groups per 5 or 7 people, round and round their conlonels.
Bit by bit clear, a monster. Liyidan had a surprise,“Wo, such huge B.creatures!”
The B.creatures are poison-wildlife, because of growing in weapon pollution area long time, then Multiply to unusual change creatures, extremity danger. Windon stared to the 6 meter high B.creature, crimson body growing colors of rainbow poison horn. Often blast stench throw off, Grotty long bola-tail draging behind back, leave over some long and twisted way of marks. Strong and vigorous claws stepping, deep footprint leaved behind. The B.creatures tingle standing tine-ear, purple light from covetous eyes, Saliva or liquid running from the mouth and sharp teeth. That time, its mouth spurt out the deep call,“Ao! Ao~!”
Liyidan said aloud,“The B.creature is calling companies, We must back here! Speed to ready!” The B.creature began fast running to groups. Empire soldiers had bend over backward to shoot. Numbers of flames foercely shoot to its body, but never delay B.creature speed. 100 meter, 90 meter, 80 meter, the distance was closing. Men’s will would be wobbling. Windon quickly take out the laser sword, and operated bomb-type, fierce threw to B.creature. It’s ate off the sword, everyone had a great surprise. This sword system very currently, abroad using. Becuae of high class security and strong function. Can closing combat and some distance shooting. Also can set up a part of repair. Also the especiall point is with safe password or other special code that start up explode system.
Windon was calmly standing, absolutely standing, and shouted,“Hold up! Listening to me, opening fire!”
Soldiers had all strength to trigger. The B.creature still rush running to them under big fire. heavy stepps were more and more coming, everybody’s heart speed up, but continued to shoot, shoot. 30 meter, 20 meter, 10 meter, Liyidan sweat was running on forehead. Sudden, B.creature had a cruel shouted, then weak down to groud,“BOMB!” from Its stomach, green blood was emiting from wound hole. Although B.creatures couldn’t move, but soldiers’s eyes still fling places, for fear second expressed.
Liyidan undestood the danger was coming, spoke, “Fall back to the base, get out here! Hurry up!”
They’re fast running out the bad places. The B.creatures called beyond…
In the battle tank, Windon slowly spoke to him,“Colonel Liyidan, if the thing in two minds, you and me will died here.”
Liyidan still had a little fear, but secretly felicitate the disaster.
Happy said in no time,“This B.creature have good nose, Where’s weapon pollution, they’re will be there!”
Windon “ah ah” smiled and talked,“Needn’t mind, I can master everything, no one closed us. I have a good idea, we’re going to the small bar tonight. Ah! Aha~ha~!”
They’re became good friends and companies since the case happened. Till to now, they’re depend unremitting will on works, overcome layer upon layer difficulties, finally climbed up the highest leader positions. He’s really unknew, Why the accompanier with him at the former blood fight, now instant changed, became a stumbling block of empire. Windon althought couldn’t cilmbed up his position, but great honour at same, It’s only under one man. The rather that go through fire and water many years, he’s actuality don’t believe why happened.
“Honour premier, honour premier.” An information officer broke his thinking, the officer continued to report,
“Emergencies meeting, senators waiting for you.” Liyidan slow standing, then went to Empire premier Meeting Hall.
In the palace of D.S. great birthday party still holding. People smile, both degustation, enjoy wonderful birthday programes. A young perrty lady gentle and cultivated walking on the bandstand, applause rose up. She’s glad speak,“Thank you, thanks for your support. I’ll offer a classical song for you.《Dream Land Story》” Sweetness and fair music along with her dancing, The story is… It’s said that long long ago, there’s ayoung preety songer feet on the Dream Land, She’s surprise discovered many fly creatures able to song. It’s very blessedness, very exciting to song, the voice so great. Suddently, a difference ray winged to her from sky. It’s a view as a distorted, indistinct shadow appearance of something, It’s a light door. A wing girl smile closing her, and kind talking. Then leaded her to the light door, the light as smaller to smaller, door closed finally. Two years ago, the songer go back to home, her song pleasanter to listen, inebriation. She became famer songer of G.I.M.E. 3 years late… The singing voice is so great, as the heroine of story.
Onhogo power said,“Good, very good!” Applause from audiences again, seens satisfaction full stop.
An officer stealth near Onhogo, low talked,“Honour Onhogo, generals waiting for you in the Universe-eye Info-center.”
He did a wrinkling brow, turn to speak sideward,“Beautiful Ms GianJing, I need a little time to meeting, would you help me to take a charge in my birthday celebration some?”
GianJing felt a surprise,“Honest Onhogo, It’s my pleasure, thanks for your regards. Please to reassurance.”
He’s departed from guesters, palace, to step on spaceship on the Universe-eye Infocenter way. A group of deffense fleet landing on, then tag along his ship flying.
Onhogo sat down the chair of Command module, tasteless asked aside,“Captain Sidink, take the meeting info to me.” Sidink strict answered that,“No problem, honour Onhogo.”
He’s careful reading the info, he’s more read most unclear, to look outer the fash fleet, silently thinking about. At this moment, outerlook weren’t important in his mind, he needs a result, the empire ending of future. He’s phoned to the premier,
Onhogo said,“Honour premier, I’m Onhogo, I understood in substance.”
Liyidan said,“I wouldn’t believe Honour Windom did this case, What’s good suggestion?”
Onhogo talked,“The cases is up to this condition, I thinking that if negotiation was broked, It’s doubt to arms.”
Liyidan said,“I absloute know this point, It’s useless, even we cut territory of country for peace. I very know Windon, such he’ll till to end!”
Onhogo lower voice,“We can continue to use old idea deal with this man, do you think so? Honour premier?”
Liyidan as same of him,“I allow you execute the T.S.M. plan in the occasion requires. But don’t forget,
We’re face to former-companies as Windon, I afraid the plan won’t done!”
Onhogo smile said,“Honour premier, many ways to done, But I thinking that is the suitable way.”
Liyidan thought in two minds. After a little, he again replied,“Nice! I’m allow to you use the plan again if Universe Star plunged in crisis! ”
Onhogo said,“Thanks my lord!”
Onhogo’s face showed a ghost of snaky. He’s recalling conquer former enemies one by one in the scenes, brought mind in the War-Competion, and how to defeat opponents one by one. Aslo looked back on the widely sky, amazingly speed destroy to tough enemies of recalcitrance. He still believe the war will be win without T.S.M. plan, it’s kill a chicken needn’t on an ox.
Sidink broke his mind, reported,“Honour Onhogo, its according to the new info, Windon have renunciated
to G.I.M.E. on the blazeing in the whole, also allianced with 20 galaxies, 7 billion soldiers, hundreds of billion battle
group of fleets dig up the hatchet to G.I.M.E., and the reason is, the reason…”
Onhogo asked him,“What’s the reason? Please talk.” Sidink replied,“Yes, my lord. The reason that is premier Liyidan has controlled parliament of empire such several hundred years ago, also listed to tens of serious accusals.”
Onhogo Knowing said,“I know, prepare to fleets at once. We must arrived to Mubu star, Flamemend star convoked units, then prepare to out for a battle!”
Sidink said aloud,“Yes, sir!” Spaceship dashed out the aerosphere of star. Exhibiting the ocean of universe on face. The Universeeye Information Center piece by piece to became big, became huge. There’s supper space info-port, 3 million square kilometer expanse. The importantest military base in D.S, Number of solar systems are involved in forces. Onhogo ran to the Second Battle Headquarter of D.S. when get off. Tens of empire higer generals were waiting for him in the Meeting Center. They’re standing up at once while he’s arriverd. Onhogo sited down as a draught, then had a wave to everyone, spoke,“Please sit down, don’t standing.”
A gerneal too impatient to wait,“Honour Onhogo, Windon has leaded the rebel army to break through first line of defence of Universe Empire Star. And general Gui Wu Guo is battling to S. invasion armies under fury. The Empire Star is attacked between S.Invasion and rebellion, They’re hold us under war predicament, it’s stared in face. In addition, General Mateph fleets are returning to the Empire Star on way.”
Onhogo had a pat with hand on council board. Then slow said,“Thanks for general Bianja, Who’s want to say more something? please.”
Gneral Peterhanla is near Bianja, he’s first talked,“Honour Onhogo, Because our armies are under bad war predicament, please listen to me.”
Onhogo wasn’t at all attented to their saying, and ferocious face became terror much more.
After moment, he’s asked,“When will Unbeatable GunStar done? Who can tell me that!?” They’re still just standing, no one replied. He’s crinkled, and talked,“I saw the information. It’s press hard on, Who dare to act wild in G.I.M.E., sure be can’t passed in any event! Take my order, the main armies going to the Empire Star in second, then battle to Windon egg! We will going meeting on way! ”
On the way, the meeting is continuing. General Peterhanla said,“According to the information form rebelon on screen, the emenies will use preponderance of soldiers power to pounce us in possibility without fail, It’s overpowering and total battle scheme. Undifficulty to look the attacking way of rebelon from the Empire Starschart, please pay attention to these places.”
Imitate screen showed some solid constellation. He’s talked more,“The rebelon have speed to attacking at present. It’s estimated to arrive there 24 hours later, and will make effective attack.”
Bianja asked,“Our starsfield armies would strengthen power to delay enemy attacking speed in ability or not?” Peterhanla replied that,“If have enough backup power, but our armies will be disastrous.”
Onhogo talked,“We need time. If only that have enough time, stick to victimization more in war.”
Peterhanla replied,“Yes, honour. I’ll execute in a minute.”
That time, other general Jamno asked him,“Excuse me, I want to ask another question.”
Onhogo answered,“Sure, talk please.”
Jamno spoke,“Enemy armies tend to mucilage-glue in battle, military strength whether withdraw to the universe Empire star about, and make time to fight of guard?”
Bianja replied,“This is a good idea. but total withdrawed, will enormously strike Dragons Battlestar armies’s morale, and there’re besieged now, I afraid the result very serious.”
Onhogo laugh,then talked “General Bianja is right with reason, once Twin Dragon Battlestars fell, It must be help to rebelon armies attacking force. And thereby work disbennifit to us. It’s make very disbennifit influence to other star places. G.I.M.E. can’t fell back, even one man with battle last time!”
General Dara was near Jamno, his asked,“Honour Onhogo, for armies can faster speed in battle, I hope we can transport troops and material of star to replace other that one by one circle in succession action. Is it right?”
Onhogo had a look to Dara, then replied,“Right, this’s way if suitable condition. Arrange now.”
Dara answer,“thank you, I’m execute it.”
Onhogo asked,“What about unite-armies everyplaces? General Bianja.”
He’s replied,“Honour Onhogo, they’re on the way. It’s estimate landing-time 10 hours late will be arrived. And our armies will be arrived at 7 hours late in succession.”
Onhogo talked,“Not bad! We must lead up speed than Mr. Windon step, otherwise dally over opportunity combat, unmanageable on blast.”
Peterhanla spoke again,“General GuiWuGuo has again suggested to add reinforcements at one minute ago. And prermier Liyidan wish to send parts of fleets for rescue action.”
He’s replied,“I know, I order General Dara lead 5 million soldiers, 50 million units of fleets to rescue in the twin Dragon Battlestars, assistance General GuiWuGuo clear up on precipice!”
“Yes, sir. I’ll go.” Dara replied.
Onhogo continued to talking prewar prepared with generals. Numberless of battle fleets hight speed to U.Empire Star in the widest space. They’re possibility saluted to glory of Empire, or humiliation.
The birthday celebration continued to open like a full swing. and that time, Sunshine continent has greeted
early morning. People couldn’t tire because of jubilation one night till a succession of fleet gunshots had
savage broken sweetdream at immersion.
There’re sent out message those millions of rebelon were leaded to casus belli by Windon in the info-Centers, station of Alleywayes and avenues. People started to alarm, and vied go home with each other. street people as broke moving hubs and pieces, complete quiet. A little mouse put out small head itself from hole, as a wonder sneak looking at running away people. An no body claim of chair was tumbled and ramed by a fit of strong wind. Immediately sweeping confused dust with great intensity. A lot of rubbish were presents of environmental after festival, as headless fly wallopped by wind action.
Some people watched news and hid in home;
some people prepared to go to constry side with family;
some people brave tried to communication far friends, pursue facts of war;
some people worried about families of military service.
Dead-drunk officers or soldiers as heard a bawl on head, tumbled and ramed went to battalion, some arranges of trains carried groups of soldiery, then return to the centralize of military affairs base.
All cities hang over uncomfortable emotions, likes a disorderly commotion or disturbance in whole land. People didn’t cry for Onhogo birthday who begin pray for friends or families. Miss.GianJing or wisdomer busy dealed with confusion happenings. Royalty-guarderTightly keep watch every corner of palace outside, fear sneak attacking of enemy.
Deco came to front door of palace with soldiers protection, then announced to everyone,“Ladys and gentlemen, I’m regularity E.soldier Captain of V.Family, my name’s Deco. Deep honour to meet you. Because of empire locating a civil war edge, Onhogo ordered me to defence palace. Please don’t frighten, and don’t worry about these. In aside, Charle.Guan Ⅳ couple or others should fast go back to the bedroom of palace. To ensure security, I’ll send 2 Royalty-armed escorts for His Royal Highness.”
It’s uncomplete saying, a sticked to crutch midlife-man walk out from guests, and asked,“Honour Deco, 2 Royalty-armed escorts may be too smaller, allow my family armed-escorts to join defend job. One of that I can try one’s best faith for master, two of that I can abate Honour Deco’s burden, Do you think so?” A young officer leaded a team of soldiers to here at front door of palace, he’s saluted,“Report to Grigadier Qu Qing, V.Family Universe Fleet Colonel JiaJianChun and units waiting for your orders in 20 kilometre distance of palace.”
Qu Qing was born in D.S. generations service for V.Family, he’s D.S. Universe Fleet Level 1 Grigadier.
Deco had a saw JiaJianChun, then smile spoke,“We’re same, It’s never mind, OK, OK.” People got a load of him at coincide. He’s young and handsome, remarkable, with Royal-warrior honor, show heroic bearing hair.
Qu Qing smile replied,“Hum, good, take order yourself! Never slow Protection responsibility.”
JiaJianChun replied,“Yes, Grigadier.”
Charle.Guan Ⅳ cuted argumentum, talked,“Thanks for your regard V.Family. In this condition, everyone should go back, and units allowed stay. Another, Grigadier Qu Qing go with me, I have important thing talk to you.” Deco knew somewhat, he’s thought,“That old fox crab my great, How should I report to my lord?”
Qu Qing understood, and talked,“It’s my pleasure.”
Then GianJing said,“Since the party have finished, I should go back headquarter too. I’m very glad and extrermely honoured meet everybody today. at the same time, I grateful to your fervor entertaining, and wish meet you next time.”
Guests said goodbye to Charle. Guan Ⅳ too, then one by one leaved for home.
Qu Qing followed after Charle. Guan Ⅳ came to King meetingroom. When sat down, he kneel down with a “Bu Ton”, then cried to apologize.
Charle. Guan Ⅳ promptly supported his up, and surprise asked,“Uncle Qu Qing, something slow talked. I wouldn’t receive this manner. standing up then say, please.”
Qu Qing excited to cry his tear out, and talked,“My force weake, many years couldn’t service for responsibility, have not good portection for V.Family.”
Charle. Guan Ⅳ slow talked,“Alas, V.Family under these conditions because that be forced.Onhogo having great power, influenc. We weren’t his opponent. It’s not blame and because of you. I only complain haven’t got enough experience and skills myself.”
He’s supported Qu Qing with hands, then sad down on chair, Qu Qing slow talked,“G.I.M.E. on the life and death line,V.Family should reflect on this time.”
Charle replied,“That’s right, Uncle. His anabasis action is bode ill rather than well, difficult divination. V.Family may be able to brace up royal hero way again, correctitude faith and statute. Thought… thought I still worry about the Gunstars power are mightiness in our mind, we’re whether…?”
Qu Qing letter smile, answered,“Don’t fear that Unbeatable Gunstars, one of them is only building near life star of D.S. It’s wasted of long time 200 years at least, then may be finished. The rather that the empire is diffence to former today. The complete day is no end time. And the furthest regret, Onhogo brought the great mass of armies elite of V.Family, but his some of all contract armies elite still defend in D.S. Even we can all right to thing, national power will tend to vacuum estate.”
Charle. Guan Ⅳ answerd,“Words with truth, He’s took the main armies elite, We also watch out for other against-force’s intrigues.” Onhogo had staied 3 contract armies, they’re very experiences in battle. Deco, ZuoGe, Pinorbarwi control them. Wisdomer Deco is noble of D.S. he’s called “Heaven-Wisdomer”. His unit called “Sky-dragon Warrior”, they’re good at sky battle. Wisdomer Zuo has called“Supernatural Speed Counsellor”, He’s controling the Different-armour Warriors, they’re difference nation hero engage-warriors, great ability to land battle. And Pinorbarwi has named “Steel General”, control aeroamphibious engage-armry “S.Army”. This is second to none elite unit in V.Family. We have to alert. I think in this conditions, We must unite friendship power to chart great plan.”
Charle.Guan Ⅳ supplemented,“I remember Minkim.Guan of V.Family this time again.”
Qu Qing asked,“Is he Sea nation Minkim?”
Charle answered,“Yes, he’s. Sea nation have source with V.Family 1000 years ago. For overlord position, not spare to down status. And marry sea nation. Nowaday, great elder Minkim.Guan has V.Family blood. Although power on hands, but has low-style, dislike to society study. So called the Silence Elder in his presidial.”
Qu Qing had a quiet considering, a few minutes late said,“Honour Charle. Guan Ⅳ, you’re right. Sea nation although had married with V.Family. But It’s not behave of real help us. We must call upon heroes everywhere for V.Family. I have a plan. Could I…? ”
He’s replied,“Please free talk, if this can help V.Family.” Qu Qing talked,“Three days late, V.Family will have an emergency meeting concerning civil war of empire, I will invite V.Family else heroes or famerperson at attendance. That day our can find faithful talent helpers. Add power of family. The first can fill up the vacuum of family power. The second can keep away Onhogo’s expansion power in effect.”
“That’s a good idea. I hope my family is real V.Family of D.S. this isn’t fiddle puppet!”
Charle continued to ask him,“What are they characters will attendance at time?”
Qu Qing thought a few minute, replied,“The meeting on the way, hundreds of person contacted, they’re occultfa of king warrior of Die-hard nation, Noble warrior Terrading of Apparition nation, General Bianja’s daughter Bianna, Emotion-master Farllow, Long nose Grandma of witch leader of Witch Organization, Adventurer Martin.

Thailand Trip – Flight, Travel & More!
Is S.Africa more expensive than Thailand for holiday things such as cabs, eating out, pubbing/clubbing etc?
Have found good hotel/apartment deals in both countries, and good airfare deals too (about €450 return from Dublin to Jo’burg!…amazing) I’ve never been to either place though so unaware of costs?! Thanks
Yes, I would say SA is more expensive than Thailand although flight and accommodation would be your biggest expense by far, also consider car hire costs (essential if you want to travel in SA but not in Thailand). Cabs are pricey. Eating/drinking is generally very good value compared to Europe. Thailand probably has a much wider price/quality range than SA but of course you get what you pay for…

Make Metal Detecting Your New Hobby

used gold metal detector from a detector surplus store and reselling them may not always be such a good idea, simply because they usually do not come with an owners manual.

The Vanishing Hitchhiker
asked:
The Vanishing Hitchhiker – Norman A. Rubin
(The ‘vanishing hitchhiker’ legend is a reported strange and mysterious occurence in which people travelling by vehicle met with or are accompanied by a hitchhiker who subsequently vanished without explanation, often from a moving vehicle without leaving a trace.)
The questions asked over and over again – was it possible for a person that was seen and heard one minute and then totally disappeared within a flash, never to be seen or heard from again?
It was additionally weird that it only happened during the dark of night. It usually occurred to a driver driving through the loneliness of the hour through an equally quiet roadway. The figure was sighted with the hand sign of a hitchhiker in need of a ride to a certain destination. The motorist with good intentions then stopped and asked the man or woman to where he or she is headed. “Hop in, going that way..”, as the driver offered the figure a lift. The journey proceeded, sometimes in total silence, and at some subsequent point the passenger appeared to have vanish while the vehicle was in motion.
Throughout the annals of history, legends and stories had been told of strange figures that are picked up along roadsides and then vanished without a trace from the interiors of automobiles, from carriages and even from the backs of horses!
This mysterious legend in various forms has been with us for many years. Tales of these spectral passengers (usually young and rather beautiful women) are often attached to bridges, dangerous hills and intersections and cemeteries, especially those grounds in lonely spots. There were stories of “vanishing hitchhikers” being told as far back as the late 1800’s, when men would tell stories of ghostly women who appeared on the back of their horses. Those spectral riders always disappeared when they reached their destination and would often prove to be the deceased daughters of local farmers. Very little has changed from those days in the stories about the ‘vanishing hitchhiker’ that are still told today, outside of the preferred method of transportation.
Stories of phantom hitchhikers have been a part of ghost lore since ghost stories began to be told to rapt
listeners. In the old days, before automobiles, people told of picking up passengers in carriages and buggies, only to have them vanish before reaching their destination. Many of these stories exist as nothing more than urban legends that have been handed down from one generation to the next, but there are others that appear to be disconcertingly real… stories with reliable witnesses and strange facts which cannot be disputed
According to folklorist Jan Brunvand, the legend of the vanishing hitchhiker legend evolved from earlier European stories, usually about travelers on horseback. He states that in Hawaii, the hitchhiker became associated with the ancient volcano goddess Pele, travelling the roads incognito and rewarding kind travellers.
And along the East African coast the hitchhiker in their version of the legend takes the form of a beautiful girl who is picked up by cross country truckers: At some point the truck driver looked over at his beautiful passenger and discovered to his horror that she is a ‘jini’ and has goat’s legs. At this point the girl or jini laughed and disappeared into the void.
The phenomenon of hitchhikers that had been vanishing in the U.S. and throughout the world had been going on for many years, till this very day. What could be the reasons for this strange happening? Actually there might be quite a few reasons for these occurrences. It could be an illusion seen by the driver or perhaps the driver was in his cups. Other theories abound from extraterrestrial beings, or an actual ghost and spirits that neared his or her place of rest, usually near a cemetery.
Are these stories simply “urban legends” with no basis in truth – or is there more to the enigma than meets the eye?
Could any of them have a basis in truth? What if a somewhat true incident to a vanishing hitchhiker like one of many that actually happened somewhere and then was told and retold to the point that it lost many of the elements of truth if any? As the story spread from one locale to another, it was embraced by people all over the country and became a part of their local lore.
Time and time again there have been sober witnesses to a ghost of a beautiful young girl who had been appearing along the road near Greensboro since 1923. She stood (and probably standing) in the gloom of the coming dusk next to the US Highway 70 Underpass in a white evening gown and waved frantically for someone to stop and pick her up.
Those hapless motorists who stopped were introduced to a young and pretty young girl who says her name is Lydia and she always asked them to please take her to an address in High Point. She always related to them that she has spent the evening at a dance in Raleigh and was anxious to get home. She said that her date had gotten mad when she stopped his advances and had made her get out and walk.
She didn’t say much on the way. When drivers approached the house the girl always vanished from their car, never opening the door and getting out…. just simply she was there one minute and gone the next!
Those drivers who went to inquire at the house were always told the same thing… that Lydia died in a car wreck many years ago, coming home from a high school dance in Raleigh and perishing at the US Highway 70 underpass.
A similar story was told that along Highway 48 in South Carolina. Concerned motorists who claimed that they had seen a vanishing hitchhiker in the form of a young comely girl carrying a suitcase walking along the road signaling with her thumb. They stopped and offered her a ride and she told the driver that she is going to visit her sick mother in Columbia. As she entered the vehicle she gave the address of her destination, but throughout the journey she remained quiet, not uttering one word.
Then suddenly at the outskirts of the city she vanished from the auto; nor was her suitcase found. One motorist who picked her up went to the address and described the girl to a man who lived there. He said that it was his sister and that she was killed by a hit-and-run driver while walking to visit their sick mother. This happened to several independent witnesses over a three-year period in the 1950’s.
One hitchhiker story from Arkansas involves a girl in a formal dress standing by the side of the road who was picked up by two college boys on their way to their annual prom. One of the youths noticed she was shivering from the cool of the night air and he gave her his coat to wear. The girl was silent throughout the trip, only pointing out the house where she said she lived. When they had stopped they found that the girl had vanished.
The youth forgot to get the coat back, and when he and his companion returned to the house to retrieve the garment a woman dressed in black met them and said the girl was her daughter but she was dead and buried. At a later period they went to view the grave and there, draped across the tombstone, was the young man’s coat.
Another type of legend pertaining to the vanishing hitchhiker comes from a tale haunting the Green Mountain Cemetery south of Bellville in Illinois. As the story goes you can pick up a ghostly rider if one would drive around the cemetery three times on a stormy night with door to the car opened. The legend goes on to say that on the third trip, a ghostly woman will appear, soaking wet from the rain, will appear dressed all in black in the passenger seat. By the time one has finished making the third round, the spirit will have vanished, but to one’s horror a pool of water on the passenger seat will remain..
These legends would not be baffling enough, but consider the biblical text of a “Vanishing Hitchhiker” story in the New Testament in which the Apostle Philip baptizes an Ethiopian who picks him up in a chariot, then disappears. “When they came out of the water, the Spirit snatched Phillip away….” (see Acts 8:26-39)
The spirit of religious evangelism continues this very day.
New Zealand’s Christian community was abuzz with reports of a mysterious hitchhiker who had been thumbing rides on the North Island. The bloke they’ve picked up will say something like, “did you know the Lord is coming back?” and that’s the only thing the fellow said. Then he vanished from the speeding car. He’s appeared on several main roads, always to young Christian couples. Some had said the stranger was wearing immaculate white clothes, although no one had been able to describe his exact appearance.
The same story came from small towns around Natchez, Mississippi, that people were riding on the Traceway highway when they saw a man hitchhiking. When they stopped and he got in the back seat, he explained that he was Jesus and then disappeared. One couple said that they never pick up hitchhikers but they felt compelled to at that time only to have the same experience. They went to the park ranger station and reported it, only to be told that they were the sixth ones to stop and tell them the same story.
There are several versions of this story that was seen and heard throughout the world by motorist traveling on a road in the dark of the night hours. This ethereal person, usually dressed in white, usually fascinated the motorist. At some point, the hitchhiker would say something like “Jesus is Coming soon” then disappeared. And such reported incidents continue to be told till this very day….
Another version of the ‘vanishing hitchhiker’ legend is one of prophecy of a natural disaster. According to the reports in the Tacoma Washington News Tribune following the Mount St. Helens eruption on May 18, 1980 many drivers swore on oath that they saw a woman dressed in white with her skin matching the color of the garment, thumbing a ride by the side of the road near the mount. She would get into the car and would eventually say in a ghostly whisper, “The volcano is going to erupt again between October 12 and 14.” Then as suddenly as she appeared she would vanish. Sure enough lava flowed from the volcano on October 12th.. It was a talked about urban legend at the time, though. Some people even swore they had picked up the woman in white before May 18th, and that she predicted the big one. Then the question asked would be the truism of drivers’ experiences – Still it is quite spooky…
One story of such the frightening aspects of the ‘vanishing hitchhiker’ happened to a group of Australian teenagers on the prowl for lonely girls for a bit of fun. They went cruising together every weekend looking for excitement when one night they saw a beautiful girl hitchhiking by the side of the road. They stopped, and offered her a ride, which she accepted. She got into the backseat with the boys sitting on either side of her and away they went. When they neared the lonely intersection she asked, “to be let out here please”. They refused to stop and drove through the intersection. She started screaming and suddenly disintegrated before their very eyes. The story ended with screeching brakes, car doors flying open, screaming boys diving out of the car, and a slightly teed off father who has to sell the car because he couldn’t get the faint but nagging smell of decay out of the vehicle.
The appeal of vanishing hitchhiker stories lies in the nature of the encounter — an interaction with a ghost occurs not because the main character went looking for the supernatural, but because it came to him. Such tales and legends underscore the belief that representatives from the spirit world can be encountered at any time and by anyone. Adding to the horror factor was the phantom’s passing for a living person. That the driver could not recognize it as a ghost during their time together makes it all that easier in the belief we won’t recognize such a ghost when we meet one either.
There are those who would want to relate in their claim to be witnesses to just such a phenomenon. But where do those vanishing hitchhikers go? How is it time and time again when they are seen they seem to defy the very basic laws of nature, which we are familiar with. Sometimes logic cannot explain the very nature of the event, so it is labeled an unexplained mystery. Perhaps one day in the future we’ll have the answers, perhaps.. But for now we are only shrouded in questions to the ‘vanishing hitchhikers’.
NOTES:
1) Vanishing hitchhikers appeared in numerous songs and in the 1951 Orson Welles’ short film ‘Return to Glennascaul’ the 1985 movie Mr Wrong, and the 1824 Washington Irving novel “The Lady With the Velvet Collar”. (www.snopes.com)
2) The Stephen King short story, “Riding the Bullet” is an example of an opposite version of this story, in which case, a dead man picked up a young hitchhiker, that told him of his mother’s upcoming death, and subsequently disappeared.
3) The Twilight zone television series aired an episode entitled ‘the Hitchhiker’, based on a variation of the tale, written by Rod Sterling and based on a radio play by Lucille Fletcher.. And in South Africa in 1992 there was a cult film ‘Dust Devil’ by Richard Stanley that featured a vanishing hitchhiker..
4) One must be aware that these tales of meeting ‘vanishing hitchhikers or seeing ghostly phenomenon’s in varied cemeteries are tales referred to as ‘urban legends’. They are stories that have been told and told, either in ballads or related as somewhat true experiences of the present day and have no real basis in fact… or do they?
5) The first proper study of the story of the vanishing hitchhiker was undertaken in 1942-3 by American folklorists Richard Beardsley and Rosalie Hankey, who collected as many accounts as they could and attempted to analyse them.

SIDEBAR:
One of the Midwest’s, and America’s, favorite ghost stories is the tale of ‘Resurrection Mary’, the vanishing hitchhiker. The cemetery, located in Justice, Illinois has been home to this famous spirit since the 1930′s.
The story of ‘Resurrection Mary’ is considered one of “the most famous ghostly legends in the city of Chicago. “The story began on one cold Winter night in 1934 when a young girl was killed in an auto accident while on her way home from the O’Henry Ballroom (now the Willowbrook Ballroom) on Archer Avenue in Justice, Il., a southern suburb of Chicago.
She rested peacefully for the next five years, but in 1939 a cab driver picked up a young girl on Archer Avenue wearing a white gown, her face as white as her garment. It was a snowy January night, but the girl was not wearing a coat. She jumped in the front door of the taxi and sat demurely by the driver. She gave him instructions to get her home, saying that he needed to go north on Archer. Suddenly, she told him to stop and the driver looked out the window to where she had pointed. He turned to the passenger seat and saw that the girl had simply vanished from the cab…and the door had never opened. The taxi was directly in front of Resurrection Cemetery, where the girl had been buried after the accident.
Over the years, sightings of Mary have been frequent. Many eager young men even claim to have picked her up and taken her dancing with them. Some very reliable witnesses say they have kissed her and found her lips chilled with cold. As they take her home, she always disappeared when they reach Resurrection Cemetery. Those stories were taken with a grain of salt, as they might have been spoken in the dregs of drink.
One night in 1977, a passing motorist saw Mary holding onto the bars of the cemetery gate. He called the police, thinking a girl was trapped inside of the locked cemetery. Investigators found no one inside when they arrived but two of the bars in the gate were bent apart and small handprints were etched into the iron. Supervisors at the cemetery had the sections of the gate cut out to keep the curiosity seekers away. They were embarrassed into welding them back into place a year later as the handprints reappeared. Between the time they were removed and then replaced, the bars were analyzed by a lab for trickery. It was determined that on one would have made those handprints without applying extremely high amounts of heat. The indention can still be seen in the gate today. Over the years, sightings of Mary have been frequent.
As the years have passed, sightings of Mary have continued. Taxi and truck drivers, motorists, reputable witnesses like police officers and ministers, and ghost hunters of all callings have reported the spirit as she walks along the side of the road or vanishes from the interior of moving automobiles. She has become one of the most famous ghosts of all time. Does she still haunt the gates and roadsides near Resurrection Cemetery?
Note: Resurrection Cemetery is located along Archer Avenue in Justice, Illinois. Follow 95th Street to Roberts Road, which goes north to Archer. The cemetery is located at 7600 South Archer Avenue. This street will also take you to Mary’s favorite haunt, the Willowbrook Ballroom, formerly the O’Henry ballroom.

As the story spread from one locale to another, it was embraced by people all over the country and became a part of their local lore.
Time and time again there have been sober witnesses to a ghost of a beautiful young girl who had been appearing along the road near Greensboro since 1923. She stood (and probably standing) in the gloom of the coming dusk next to the US Highway 70 Underpass in a white evening gown and waved frantically for someone to stop and pick her up.
Those hapless motorists who stopped were introduced to a young and pretty young girl who says her name is Lydia and she always asked them to please take her to an address in High Point. She always related to them that she has spent the evening at a dance in Raleigh and was anxious to get home. She said that her date had gotten mad when she stopped his advances and had made her get out and walk.
She didn’t say much on the way. When drivers approached the house the girl always vanished from their car, never opening the door and getting out…. just simply she was there one minute and gone the next!
Those drivers who went to inquire at the house were always told the same thing… that Lydia died in a car wreck many years ago, coming home from a high school dance in Raleigh and perishing at the US Highway 70 underpass.
A similar story was told that along Highway 48 in South Carolina. Concerned motorists who claimed that they had seen a vanishing hitchhiker in the form of a young comely girl carrying a suitcase walking along the road signaling with her thumb. They stopped and offered her a ride and she told the driver that she is going to visit her sick mother in Columbia. As she entered the vehicle she gave the address of her destination, but throughout the journey she remained quiet, not uttering one word.
Then suddenly at the outskirts of the city she vanished from the auto; nor was her suitcase found. One motorist who picked her up went to the address and described the girl to a man who lived there. He said that it was his sister and that she was killed by a hit-and-run driver while walking to visit their sick mother. This happened to several independent witnesses over a three-year period in the 1950’s.
One hitchhiker story from Arkansas involves a girl in a formal dress standing by the side of the road who was picked up by two college boys on their way to their annual prom. One of the youths noticed she was shivering from the cool of the night air and he gave her his coat to wear. The girl was silent throughout the trip, only pointing out the house where she said she lived. When they had stopped they found that the girl had vanished.
The youth forgot to get the coat back, and when he and his companion returned to the house to retrieve the garment a woman dressed in black met them and said the girl was her daughter but she was dead and buried. At a later period they went to view the grave and there, draped across the tombstone, was the young man’s coat.
Another type of legend pertaining to the vanishing hitchhiker comes from a tale haunting the Green Mountain Cemetery south of Bellville in Illinois. As the story goes you can pick up a ghostly rider if one would drive around the cemetery three times on a stormy night with door to the car opened. The legend goes on to say that on the third trip, a ghostly woman will appear, soaking wet from the rain, will appear dressed all in black in the passenger seat. By the time one has finished making the third round, the spirit will have vanished, but to one’s horror a pool of water on the passenger seat will remain..
These legends would not be baffling enough, but consider the biblical text of a “Vanishing Hitchhiker” story in the New Testament in which the Apostle Philip baptizes an Ethiopian who picks him up in a chariot, then disappears. “When they came out of the water, the Spirit snatched Phillip away….” (see Acts 8:26-39)
The spirit of religious evangelism continues this very day.
New Zealand’s Christian community was abuzz with reports of a mysterious hitchhiker who had been thumbing rides on the North Island. The bloke they’ve picked up will say something like, “did you know the Lord is coming back?” and that’s the only thing the fellow said. Then he vanished from the speeding car. He’s appeared on several main roads, always to young Christian couples. Some had said the stranger was wearing immaculate white clothes, although no one had been able to describe his exact appearance.
The same story came from small towns around Natchez, Mississippi, that people were riding on the Traceway highway when they saw a man hitchhiking. When they stopped and he got in the back seat, he explained that he was Jesus and then disappeared. One couple said that they never pick up hitchhikers but they felt compelled to at that time only to have the same experience. They went to the park ranger station and reported it, only to be told that they were the sixth ones to stop and tell them the same story.
There are several versions of this story that was seen and heard throughout the world by motorist traveling on a road in the dark of the night hours. This ethereal person, usually dressed in white, usually fascinated the motorist. At some point, the hitchhiker would say something like “Jesus is Coming soon” then disappeared. And such reported incidents continue to be told till this very day….
Another version of the ‘vanishing hitchhiker’ legend is one of prophecy of a natural disaster. According to the reports in the Tacoma Washington News Tribune following the Mount St. Helens eruption on May 18, 1980 many drivers swore on oath that they saw a woman dressed in white with her skin matching the color of the garment, thumbing a ride by the side of the road near the mount. She would get into the car and would eventually say in a ghostly whisper, “The volcano is going to erupt again between October 12 and 14.” Then as suddenly as she appeared she would vanish. Sure enough lava flowed from the volcano on October 12th.. It was a talked about urban legend at the time, though. Some people even swore they had picked up the woman in white before May 18th, and that she predicted the big one. Then the question asked would be the truism of drivers’ experiences – Still it is quite spooky…
One story of such the frightening aspects of the ‘vanishing hitchhiker’ happened to a group of Australian teenagers on the prowl for lonely girls for a bit of fun. They went cruising together every weekend looking for excitement when one night they saw a beautiful girl hitchhiking by the side of the road. They stopped, and offered her a ride, which she accepted. She got into the backseat with the boys sitting on either side of her and away they went. When they neared the lonely intersection she asked, “to be let out here please”. They refused to stop and drove through the intersection. She started screaming and suddenly disintegrated before their very eyes. The story ended with screeching brakes, car doors flying open, screaming boys diving out of the car, and a slightly teed off father who has to sell the car because he couldn’t get the faint but nagging smell of decay out of the vehicle.
The appeal of vanishing hitchhiker stories lies in the nature of the encounter — an interaction with a ghost occurs not because the main character went looking for the supernatural, but because it came to him. Such tales and legends underscore the belief that representatives from the spirit world can be encountered at any time and by anyone. Adding to the horror factor was the phantom’s passing for a living person. That the driver could not recognize it as a ghost during their time together makes it all that easier in the belief we won’t recognize such a ghost when we meet one either.
There are those who would want to relate in their claim to be witnesses to just such a phenomenon. But where do those vanishing hitchhikers go? How is it time and time again when they are seen they seem to defy the very basic laws of nature, which we are familiar with. Sometimes logic cannot explain the very nature of the event, so it is labeled an unexplained mystery. Perhaps one day in the future we’ll have the answers, perhaps.. But for now we are only shrouded in questions to the ‘vanishing hitchhikers’.
NOTES:
1) Vanishing hitchhikers appeared in numerous songs and in the 1951 Orson Welles’ short film ‘Return to Glennascaul’ the 1985 movie Mr Wrong, and the 1824 Washington Irving novel “The Lady With the Velvet Collar”. (www.snopes.com)
2) The Stephen King short story, “Riding the Bullet” is an example of an opposite version of this story, in which case, a dead man picked up a young hitchhiker, that told him of his mother’s upcoming death, and subsequently disappeared.
3) The Twilight zone television series aired an episode entitled ‘the Hitchhiker’, based on a variation of the tale, written by Rod Sterling and based on a radio play by Lucille Fletcher.. And in South Africa in 1992 there was a cult film ‘Dust Devil’ by Richard Stanley that featured a vanishing hitchhiker..
4) One must be aware that these tales of meeting ‘vanishing hitchhikers or seeing ghostly phenomenon’s in varied cemeteries are tales referred to as ‘urban legends’. They are stories that have been told and told, either in ballads or related as somewhat true experiences of the present day and have no real basis in fact… or do they?
5) The first proper study of the story of the vanishing hitchhiker was undertaken in 1942-3 by American folklorists Richard Beardsley and Rosalie Hankey, who collected as many accounts as they could and attempted to analyse them.

SIDEBAR:
One of the Midwest’s, and America’s, favorite ghost stories is the tale of ‘Resurrection Mary’, the vanishing hitchhiker. The cemetery, located in Justice, Illinois has been home to this famous spirit since the 1930′s.
The story of ‘Resurrection Mary’ is considered one of “the most famous ghostly legends in the city of Chicago. “The story began on one cold Winter night in 1934 when a young girl was killed in an auto accident while on her way home from the O’Henry Ballroom (now the Willowbrook Ballroom) on Archer Avenue in Justice, Il., a southern suburb of Chicago.
She rested peacefully for the next five years, but in 1939 a cab driver picked up a young girl on Archer Avenue wearing a white gown, her face as white as her garment. It was a snowy January night, but the girl was not wearing a coat. She jumped in the front door of the taxi and sat demurely by the driver. She gave him instructions to get her home, saying that he needed to go north on Archer. Suddenly, she told him to stop and the driver looked out the window to where she had pointed. He turned to the passenger seat and saw that the girl had simply vanished from the cab…and the door had never opened. The taxi was directly in front of Resurrection Cemetery, where the girl had been buried after the accident.
Over the years, sightings of Mary have been frequent. Many eager young men even claim to have picked her up and taken her dancing with them. Some very reliable witnesses say they have kissed her and found her lips chilled with cold. As they take her home, she always disappeared when they reach Resurrection Cemetery. Those stories were taken with a grain of salt, as they might have been spoken in the dregs of drink.
One night in 1977, a passing motorist saw Mary holding onto the bars of the cemetery gate. He called the police, thinking a girl was trapped inside of the locked cemetery. Investigators found no one inside when they arrived but two of the bars in the gate were bent apart and small handprints were etched into the iron. Supervisors at the cemetery had the sections of the gate cut out to keep the curiosity seekers away. They were embarrassed into welding them back into place a year later as the handprints reappeared. Between the time they were removed and then replaced, the bars were analyzed by a lab for trickery. It was determined that on one would have made those handprints without applying extremely high amounts of heat. The indention can still be seen in the gate today. Over the years, sightings of Mary have been frequent.
As the years have passed, sightings of Mary have continued. Taxi and truck drivers, motorists, reputable witnesses like police officers and ministers, and ghost hunters of all callings have reported the spirit as she walks along the side of the road or vanishes from the interior of moving automobiles. She has become one of the most famous ghosts of all time. Does she still haunt the gates and roadsides near Resurrection Cemetery?
Note: Resurrection Cemetery is located along Archer Avenue in Justice, Illinois. Follow 95th Street to Roberts Road, which goes north to Archer. The cemetery is located at 7600 South Archer Avenue. This street will also take you to Mary’s favorite haunt, the Willowbrook Ballroom, formerly the O’Henry ballroom.

Hawaiian Cruises – Norwegian Cruise Line
Will it be warm enough to swim on a Hawaiian cruise ship in March?
We will likely be going on a Princess cruise to Hawaii the 2nd half of March, out of San Pedro, CA. Air temps in Hawaii are supposedly around 72 to 74 F then. The ship has several swimming pools. Are we likely to be able to swim comfortably on the ship there and back, or will it not be warm enough?
I was on that cruise on the Golden Princess last January. The first day was a little cool but it warmed up. One of the large pools is open and the other is covered.
It is a great trip. I loved the 8 days at sea.

Cheap Airfares – 6 Rules of Cheap Airline Tickets
Rule 1: Flexible Travel Dates
Be Flexible with Your Travel Dates to Save More Money on Air Travel!
Did you ever know that depending on your travel dates flexibility and schedule you can save huge? Searching for a cheap discounted airline ticket, people often neglect the fact that flying 1-3 days before or after the planned date can save them a lot of money. Most online travel sites and search engines won’t give you possibility to check which traveling dates can actually be cheaper for you, and it will be difficult to find a really cheap ticket unless you consult a Travel professional. Having direct access to airline resources and private contracts Live Travel Agents can manually check in real-time best flight options with least expensive seats if your travel plan is not fixed yet.
Rule 2: Free Reservations?!
How to make sure ticket price doesn’t go up when you book it? How to temporarily reserve your seats for free?
Discounted airline tickets are sold out quickly since their number is usually limited. It is often a case when you find a low airfare and don’t book it straight away, price can goes up or expire in a couple of minutes or hours, as other people might have already booked the seats out. Unlike online travel or airline websites, ASAPtickets.com Travel Agents can make temporary reservations for you Free of Charge! They can also check in real-time the maximum time reservation can be held, which gives you time to think the itineraries over and compare different flight options, making you more flexible with your payment day. Your personal Travel Agent will put the seats on hold for you and make sure your ticket price is guaranteed at the time of booking. Eventually, you not only save money booking your flight with a Live Travel Professional, but also have enough time to plan your flight carefully and choose the most suitable flight option for you.
Rule 3: Advance Booking
Always Try to Book Your Flight in Advance to Get the Best Deals.
If you wish to book your airline ticket at the lowest price, try to plan your trip ahead and start searching and booking your flight far in advance. Most airlines offer cheapest discounted tickets provided you make your booking 14 to 21 days in advance. Since quite many travelers are aware of this, try to plan your flight even earlier than that: at least one or two months in advance to get the most reasonable price. However, do not check for discounted airline tickets too far in advance. It’s a myth that booking your flight 6 months ahead makes the airfare cheaper, because the cheapest seats are still closed by the airlines. Besides, closer to the travel season airlines not only open more seats, but also offer season specials and better deals. You may call ASAPtickets.com Travel Agents directly to inquire about the best rates available to your destination and discuss the best time for you to book the flight to get lowest prices and higher discounts.
Rule 4: Weekend Travel
Try to Avoid Weekend Travel and Save More Than $100
Always remember, that it is usually cheaper to travel on weekdays (Monday through Thursday) than on weekends (Friday through Sunday). Airlines may charge up to $50 each way on international flights during weekends depending on your final destination. Weekends are also the busiest period of travel, and flights are well booked, so you can sometimes save more than $100 on your ticket if you consider traveling on weekdays instead.
Rule 5: Duration of Trip
Mind the Duration of Your Trip – the Longer the Stay the Higher the Price
Duration of your trip also influences the price of the airline ticket, and there are general conditions to apply for discounted fares. Most airlines require at least 1 Saturday stay in your travel destination to get a cheap economy class ticket, so if you are looking for the least expensive airfare, it is better to plan your return flight on Sunday rather than Saturday. Besides, airlines basically offer lower fares for a short travel which does not exceed 30-days’ stay in your destination. Though, there are often season specials that allow longer stay for the same discounted price. Generally, the longer the stay the higher the price, and it’s better to check with professional Travel Agents directly for special airlines promotions and the best price for your airline ticket planning your flight.
Rule 6:Multi-city Flights
How to Book Cheap Multi-city Flights Cheaper?
If your travel includes many stops enroute, either an open-jaw or a multi-city flight, it is usually hard to find a cheap airline ticket by yourself. Online engines are also limited to published fares, and if you don’t know what is the best routing, you can hardly find a low airfare online. Having private contracts with airlines serving multiple destinations, Live travel professionals can manually search and combine the itinerary that suits you best. Not only they can check the most convenient routings and lower fares per your travel request, but also advise you how to better combine your trip, how to save more by splitting your ticket into several in order to make your trip more affordable for you.

Ghost Hunting Should Be Professional
Robert W. Benjamin asked:
Ghost Hunting can be very fun and yet at times it can be one of the most terrifying things you will probably ever do in your life.
The following are just a few of the things folks have encountered during ghost hunting or paranormal investigations:
Smells: These smells can seem to come from no where, and develop instantly and disappear just as fast. The smells are often putrid like rotted meat, or like fresh bowel movements, and are very overpowering at times.
Apparitions: Some spirits appear as barely visible forms, while some become as solid and normal looking as a living person.
Clouds – Mists – Masses: Often fleeting shadows, things seen out of the corners of the eyes are encountered. Or a rolling black mass may appear, sometimes a whispy form like smoke is seen.
Disembodied voices: These are often heard and at times they can be very scary. Imagine being in a darkened room, and having something invisible whisper or even shout in your ear. These are not EVP’s, but normal sounding speech.
Physical Sensations – Some ghost hunters have been touched, pinched, slapped, had their hair pulled, been scratched or even bitten by invisible entities.
Rappings – Scratching – and Knockings: In walls, ceilings and floors. Strange sounds and noises are often heard in haunted locations, as well as hearing what sounds like objects being dropped, or moved in nearby rooms.
Cold spots: Sometimes just before a spirit manifests they draw energy from the surroundings. Often a spot in one area of a room will suddenly become very cold. For example the temperature thoughout a room may average 75 degrees but in one corner or area, the temperature will suddenly plummet to 50 degrees or even colder. This is a sure sign of a spirits presence or a soon manifestation.
Power drains and equipment malfunctions: Like cold spots, when a spirit is drawing energy needed to become solid or more visible, they will often draw-in nearby energy, this energy can also come from batteries in video camers, and other devices. Often cameras, tape recorders, even lights will suddenly go haywire or stop working all together when a spirit is present.
Almost everyone that does ghost hunting believes that there are two types of spirits, human and in-human, the latter are also called demons. I am a born again christian and believe the bible 100%. From my beliefs in the bible as factual. I believe there is only one type of spirit involved in any haunting, and these are in-human or demons.
According to the bible, when we are dead our spirits or souls are present with God, from there we are either granted a life of love and peace in heaven with the creator and the other believers, or we are cast into hell forever, with no chance of escape. The bible also says there is a huge chasm or void that separates the living from the dead, they cannot cross over or communicate with each other. There are other statements in the bible that clearly says that ghosts can not be the spirits or souls of people who have died.
Whether the creatures involved in a haunting are spirits of dead humans or whether they are demons, if one is trying to prove that they truly exist or if you are trying to disprove a haunting, then you must do paranormal investigations as a professional.
A professional Ghost Hunter or paranormal investigator needs to have the right tools. Here I will explain devices that every ghost hunter or paranormal investigator MUST have, if he or she is truly taking the phenomenon as real or as a business, and not as a joke.
Voice Recorder: It doesn’t matter if you use a standard tape recorder or one of the new digital recorders, what does matter is the quality and the ability to use an external microphone. Try to get one that is of good quality, but make sure you get one that has a plug in microphone with a cable or cord so the end of the microphone is away from the recorder. The small all-in-one recorders that have the built in microphones, pick up a lot of the hiss and gear noise from the recorder when they are in record mode. A recorder is a necessity for recording EVP’s. EVP’s also called (electronic voice phenomenom) are a very unique and sometimes frightening thing that is often encountered in a haunted area. What an EVP is, is a voice or other communication that is heard on a tape or digital recorder during playback, that was not heard when the recorder was recording.
Film Camera: Do NOT use a digital camera because the photo will always be questioned as being fake, no matter how good it is, where if you use a film camera, you at least have the negatives as some proof. And unless you buy a high mega-pixel digital camera, the photo quality will be less than a nice cheap 35mm film camera.
Camcorder: A camera is good, but a camcorder is even better. Get one that uses a tape, either the small cassettes or one of the older models that use the full sized VHS tapes. I bought two of these older camcorders for under $75 each recently.
Thermal Imaging scopes or goggles: These capture the upper portion of the infrared light spectrum, which is emitted as heat by objects instead of simply reflected as light. Hotter objects, such as warm bodies, emit more of this light than cooler objects like trees or buildings. Often spirits that manifest have a temperature in their form that stands out in this spectrum, especially if a spirit is present in a cold location.
Night Vision scopes or goggles: These little devices have become very cheap, a nice night vision scope can now be purchased easily for under $200. They work by collecting the tiny amounts of light, including the lower portion of the infrared light spectrum, that are present but may be imperceptible to our eyes, and amplifying it to the point that we can easily observe the image.
Flashlight: Take along two small pocket ones for each team member. What can be worse then exploring a dark cellar or underground area, and having the lights or another flashlight fail.
Walkie Talkies: If you have a group of team members, and you are investigating a large location, walkie talkies are not just a good thing to have, but they can be a life saver at times.
Notebook and pencils: Often any electronic, electrical or other devices may fail in a haunted location, so it’s very wise to carry along a small notebook and some pencils in case you need to keep some valuable notes.
Thermal Scanner: A hand held thermal scanner (thermometer) uses infrared technology to measure the surface temperature of material without touching it. You simply point at your target, pull the trigger and read the temperature on the lit LCD display.
One of the best tools I recommend, is also the cheapest, under $10 U.S. It is a computer software program that is made just for Ghost Hunting and Paranormal Investigations. It’s called ‘Ghost Hunter’. The software is for anyone who explores haunted houses or locations where any type of paranormal activity is occurring. Whether you are trying to gather evidence of the haunting or other proof, this software can help make the job more organized and easier.
Ghost Hunter software was made as a scientific tool, for paranormal researchers that believe in spirits, demons, or ghosts. Researchers can easily keep track of vital data gathered at the haunted locations. With this software you can know at a glance such vital information as; the date and times of the activity, location info, GPS data, telephone numbers, notes, sounds heard, odors detected, temperature anomalies, and more.
You can use the software on location during the investigation with any WINDOWS based notebook Computer or back at home or in the office after the investigation.

It’s called ‘Ghost Hunter’. The software is for anyone who explores haunted houses or locations where any type of paranormal activity is occurring. Whether you are trying to gather evidence of the haunting or other proof, this software can help make the job more organized and easier.
Ghost Hunter software was made as a scientific tool, for paranormal researchers that believe in spirits, demons, or ghosts. Researchers can easily keep track of vital data gathered at the haunted locations. With this software you can know at a glance such vital information as; the date and times of the activity, location info, GPS data, telephone numbers, notes, sounds heard, odors detected, temperature anomalies, and more.
You can use the software on location during the investigation with any WINDOWS based notebook Computer or back at home or in the office after the investigation.
For more information and the ability to download and try a free demo version of the ‘Ghost Hunter’ software, please visit the website:

Flying from Phoenix to Mpls in June. When’s best time to get tickets? What’s the best travel agency to use?
kronostasis_420 asked:
I usually use “Travelocity” on line to book flights and rental car. Is there a better travel agency to use? Would it be best to book the flight as soon as possible, or should I wait until it’s closer to departure time? I’m 52 years old – if I join AARP, can I get a discount?
