Prologue

The Man on the Beach

There is nothing much I can do about this problem - or is there? Charlotte thinks to herself. They were happy right from the start until this problem started. What is wrong with Heather? Why can't she conceive. That abortion she had can't be the problem. The doctor assured us she would be able to conceive when the time is right. How could something like this happen in our family? Especially at a time like this?

All around Charlotte lies the empty Jackson Bay beach. On her left is the ocean, calm and gray in the early morning light. The sun didn't show its face as yet, but the bright horizon is full of promise. Walking on the empty early morning beach always clears her mind and makes the heaviest problems seem easy. It's a spiritual thing, like her father used to say.

Since she was young Charlotte always removed herself from people when she had an unsolvable problem. This time the problem wasn't even hers. It was her daughter's, but to her it didn't make any difference. If her daughter has a problem, she has a problem. There is not way around it.

Heather and Kevin was always so happy. Now a huge and seemingly unsurmountable problem had appeared in their lives. The fact that Heather apparently cannot conceive was now straining their relationship. The doctor says there is nothing wrong with Heather and that they should keep on trying. But she can see the strain on Heather's face. Something is wrong. Charlotte knows her daughter very well and in the end this can lead to something tragic. She would have to make a plan.

She told Heather not to tell Kevin about the abortion and why it came about, but as usual Heather didn't listen. She told Kevin and now that might be a part of the problem. One of the things Kevin would wonder is why did she tell me only AFTER we got married.

The world itself had become a dangerous place. Western governments are becoming more and more totalitarian, wanting to have full control over their citizens. Food had become incredibly expensive and in many places it is incredibly scarce. Four major wars are happening all over the world. That is besides the other smaller skirmishes that happen on a continuous basis.

Still people have their ordinary lives to live. Day to day. Nothing can stop that.

Charlotte's bare feet sinks slightly into the wet sand of the beach. It is still a bit chilly so early in the morning, but she can sense it is going to be a hot and very nice day. The sky is clear and already colored a strange pink-orange color, announcing that the sun is on its way.

Then she hears a baby crying.

'What is wrong with me?' She smiles by herself. 'Why would there be a baby on the beach. The place is completely empty and no one is about. No one would be out on the beach with a baby this early in the morning.'

She keeps on walking. She usually walks up to the huge boulders just opposite the high sand dune, before turning back. A morning walk on the beach is always refreshing and opens her mind. It is her quiet time and also a time to put her mind in order. After such a morning walk she is always full of inspiration and ready to tackle the day.

Still the crying of the baby persists. She automatically starts running, because if that is a baby crying, then there are no adults to pacify her. A baby would not cry like that if there was someone with it. Charlotte starts to follow the sound, her motherly instincts now automatically kicking in.

She comes around the huge boulder and there is the baby. Wrapped in two or three blankets. Charlotte immediately notices that the blankets are of a very strange design that she never saw before in her life. Even the colors seem...off. It is very beautiful, though, and she immediately admires the design. The baby itself immediately stops crying when she sees her. The baby looks at her and then she smiles.

Oh, you beautiful thing. What are you doing here? Where's you mommy? Charlotte smiles as she quickly looks around to see where the adults are. She doesn't want people coming to a wrong conclusion finding her with the baby. Human trafficking is one of the major crimes in the country and they would automatically assumed she tried to steal the baby. One the other hand she can't just leave the child like this as there don't seem to be anyone around.

What on earth would a baby do around here? All on its own? It looks well cared for and everything is snug and clean.

She instinctively adjusts the blankets to make sure the baby doesn't get cold. With this the child suddenly grabs her finger and holds tightly onto it. With that touch the bond is there instantly. She holds onto the thick bundle of blankets and then she picks up the perfect little bundle.

The baby laughs.

As Charlotte turns around to go look around the boulder for the child's parents there's suddenly a tall man standing behind her. She has to bend her neck to look up at him.

She had obviously chosen you. He says with a friendly voice and a smile on his face. His friendly face still doesn't make her to feel comfortable at all. Take good care of her. We'll come fetch her when it's time. He says before simply turning around and walking away.

She is still too shocked to do anything, but then her brain starts working again and she runs around the boulder to ask the man what his is all about.

Wait...what... she stutters as she rushes towards the man, still holding the child protectively in her arms.

When she comes around the boulder the man is gone. It is weird, because there is no sign of him. Was this a hallucination? There is no way for him to disappear in such a short time. The beach is wide open in front of her and there is nowhere to hide.

She heard and understood what he said, though. What does it mean? It also creates conflict in her mind. She knows she wants this baby. This would be the perfect thing to make things right between Heather and Kevin.

On the other hand she doesn't know what is going on here. The right thing...or at least the legal thing would be to take the baby to the authorities. The thing is no government agency can be trusted anymore. With no one claiming the baby, social services would probably sell the baby to the nearest human traffickers. Everyone inside of government is a criminal who is only there for his or her own benefit.

So the best option on all levels is to keep the child. This is exactly what her daughter and husband need.

You are the most beautiful baby and I'm taking you straight home. She coos down at the baby, who once again smiles beautifully and excitingly up at her. There are no more crying, only sweet smiles.

As she quickly walks back home over the wet sand , she wonders who the man was. A very strange man. More importantly, what did he mean when he said they'll come and fetch the child when the time is right. Who are they? What is the meaning of all of this?

The fact that she has the baby and the good it will mean to her family, makes her to go straight back home. The other things are problems that can solve themselves at a later stage. For now she must get this baby to Heather and convince her to keep it and bring it up as her own...

The Return of the Old Ones

When the Animals Leave

From right across the world reports start coming in about very strange happenings.

These reports are soon followed by video clips made by people who were on these scenes when the actual event took place. The videos are so very unusual that when these videos first appear on UTube it is automatically assumed to be hoaxes, as usual. It is presumed these are fake videos made by people who are trying to get a huge following so that they can feature advertisements on their channel and thereby make money.

However, when UTube starts removing these videos and banning them off their site, everyone knows this is real and but another thing the Better World Order wants to hide from ordinary people. On the regular Internet all the videos showing these unusual happenings suddenly becomes strictly forbidden. It is classified as fake news and no one is allowed to see it. All over the world the authorities had decided that people are not grown-up enough to make up their own minds about what they believe and what they don't believe. The authorities claimed that they were the only ones qualified enough to decide what people should know about and what not.

However, there are still thousands of other sites where these strange videos are talked about and shown. In fact the Better World suddenly discovers beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are not in control of the Internet. When things are banned from the regular Internet, people knows nowadays that there is something to it. A ban on UTube and social media automatically gives your video, article, photo, etc authenticity that you can get in almost no other way.

What is shown in these videos are concerning to all people and should be made available to all who want to see it.

These videos depict:

Very unusual and violent storms all over the world. Of course the lying media use these unnatural storms in their fake news and blame it on global warming. According to the media, global warming is going to kill everybody on the planet. Several predictions were already made about how major cities would be flooded and how droughts would kill crops. That this strange weather would bring both floods and droughts is a bit of a paradox, but the media is so used to controlling people's minds that they don't care about such little details. None of these events ever happened in any case. According to the Better World puppets the predicted calamity will always happen in the future. Jam yesterday and jam tomorrow, but never jam today...

Using this global warming as an excuse, the mainstream media encourages people to give up all their rights and freedoms. They, and also Better World Order scientists, tell the citizens of the world that the ONLY way to stop global warming is to give up all their rights and hand it over to a world government. The media commentators say people don't have to worry, their human rights would be safe in the hands of the Better World Order and the One World Government it wants to establish. This one World Government would take care of everyone.

In addition to giving up all their rights (and their guns, of course) they also have to pay huge amounts of tax and other fees. Once that is done global warming will come to an end and everything will go back to normal, with all their freedoms and rights instantly restored.

There are even people who actually believe that.

These strange storms - which have got nothing to do with the actual weather - are usually preceded by strange harmonious sounds. No one can explain these sounds. It sounds like humongous metal trumpets and metal drums that are blown and beaten in a very huge place from where it echoes seemingly forever in an unlimited space. When the sounds are heard in person, it comes from everywhere. High up in the skies, from deep underneath the earth and from all around. It is difficult to experience this when only watching the video, but it is still magnificent on its own.

When Better World affiliated scientists come out and tell people that they are imagining these sounds and that it should simply be ignored and classified as fake news, most ordinary people immediately know its the truth. Once these Better World scientists starts telling people it's a hoax, even people who didn't witness the phenomena themselves, know it is real. People who were on the scenes where the sounds were heard, doesn't need any convincing. They heard it with their own ears and saw what happened with their own eyes. No Better World scientist is going to tell them what to believe.

Better World Order and its puppets lose credibility on a daily basis. More and more people now see that what the conspiracy theorists had been preaching all these years are God's holy truth and should be believed.

When the mainstream doesn't know what something is, they don't want ordinary people to know about or to get involved, because it might be something important that can later be used to oppress ordinary people with.

Another strange happening is the dancing fires all across the world.

Wherever there are forest or veld fires, the fires sometimes change into giant twirling tongues of flames that seems to dance to a certain tune. After such a dance the flame simply dies out. Even more amazing than this is the fact that there are afterwards no fire-damage anywhere. This despite the fact that everyone present saw the forest- or veldtfire. It is as if the dancing tongues of flames simply absorb the fire and all damage caused by it.

Many amateur and even professional videos are available of this weirdness. Everyone sees the huge fire, but once the tongues of flames die out there are no fire damage anywhere. Discussing this also become forbidden on social media. When people talk about this, their accounts are immediately suspended for spreading fake news.

This automatically puts a stamp of approval on it, and people know it's real.

Then there are deep and very strange sounds that are heard all over the world now on an almost continuous basis. These deep sounds are not the same as the harmonious sounds heard before these strange storms.

These sounds are like enormous doors opening and closing deep-deep underground. Or otherwise very huge boulders being rolled underground. Despite the fact that the sounds are so strong and deep, it is never accompanied by any tremors. It is not like the sounds that usually accompany an earthquake in any case. This makes it clear that it is something completely unknown.

The stamp of genuine is put onto this phenomena when UTube also forbid videos or even sound bites of it. On social media even discussions around it is strictly forbidden. Shadow banning or complete suspension is at the order of the day of you talk about it.

It is very clear that the Better World Order doesn't want people to discuss this. This doesn't help, because people simply go underground to discuss it and to spread the videos and sound-bites. Censoring or banning something, only makes that even more people watch it than what would normally have been the case. Censoring anything is like preventing ants coming to your picnic by spreading sugar all over your picnic area.

Then even stranger things start happening.

In some remote parts of the world and also in Australia and New Zealand all the birds and other animals start leaving in droves. What makes it even stranger is how birds and insects fly in strange patterns as they leave the area. It is almost as if they are avoiding certain parts of the sky and flying in such a way that they protect each other against something invisible. This forms very strange and sometimes even beautiful patterns in the sky.

The skies over many areas are sometimes darkened for hours on end as insects and birds depart these areas. Afterwards there is a strange, almost creepy quietness over the whole area. It is something people never experienced before. It is like being inside a soundproof room with absolutely no sounds on the inside.

People who are in these areas now also feel very uncomfortable. There is no explanation for why they feel uncomfortable. The discomfort is so great the many prefer to leave these areas. Except for the great discomfort, nothing else happens to those who prefer to stay in these areas.

There are thousands of videos all over the Internet showing this to the world. The authorities pretend as if this phenomena doesn't exist and refuse to talk about it. The main stream media doesn't report it and calls any reporting of it fake news.

Then things become even stranger and start manifesting on a Biblical scale.

In many places in the ocean strange whirlpools, waterspouts and other very strange phenomena are reported. Any ship or aircraft that goes to investigate disappears without a trace, without even coming close to the subject.

Dead fish start washing up on all the beaches of the world. At the same time all the big rivers becomes thick and red - exactly like blood. The authorities immediately close all these places and doesn't allow ordinary people even close to it. All recordings of these strange happenings now become illegal as the Better World people scratch their heads. They didn't cause any of this, so where is it coming from? They know that something like this is not supposed to happen.

What is going on?

R’Lyeh Rises

However, even stranger than all of that, are the wild dreams people are now having.

All over the world young people are having weird dreams. The strange dreams are not something new, but it was never experienced on such a continuous basis. Dreams that are so vivid that the dreamer can touch, smell and even taste whilst he is inside his dream. Except that the dreams seem like reality, they are also very similar. Tens of millions of people now basically dream the same dreams. It is incredible and unheard of.

The dreams are seen from different perspectives, but according to reports they all happen in the same place. All the dreamers find themselves inside a very huge, very strange city. In fact, the dream-city is much more than strange. It is completely out of this world and surreal.

Amongst other strange phenomena there is no up or down, left or right or any sign of what the dreamer would call normality in this dream-city. One can walk in any way that he wants to, even completely upside down without falling. While the dreamers are inside this nightmare-city these harmonious, very deep sounds can be
