Rey of Hope

Edenia Series

By Beth Hoyer 2024

This is a standby alone story.

I remembered hearing a voice said to me You’re Mindbender as your heritage named identity for the High Council to have you serve undivided loyalty with identity name of Rey Hope.

I wasn’t sure if I was despite recalling memories of myself serving the High Council on Mira as named as that planetary world is referred to as. I remembered myself waking up with a start finding me floating in a cylinder tube surrounded by yellow liquid.

The yellow liquid was identified said Nonnative born accepted by Mira for containment forever with death off planet.

My eyes looked around unseeing things as I felt the tube lower itself becoming horizontal and felt myself thrust out onto the floor that felt rugged to the touch. I heard a loud gasp sound looked up on my right to spot a human which official name is First One. The male wearing green clothing holding a long gun weapon standing there with a shocked expression on his face. I felt myself angry got up from the floor acrobatic move gymnastics way. I charged towards the male throwing a fist into the man’s face that rolled his eyes before falling to the floor appearing to go unconscious.

I remembered thinking Berserker forwards! to find my Berserker’s ability to take control by the nails forming longer I groomed later.

I allowed the angry feeling to take control Argh!

I heard running footsteps to spot two Humans both males. The accepted name for humans in Mira is First One for one and First Ones or more than one. They were wearing green clothing arrived with another male as recognized named Barry later by the clothes of a black suit with a white square collar with a young male form looking thirties. Barry was having shoulder length blonde hair pulled back and youngness without the known oldness form of wobbling walk of his weave walking that came into view.

I remembered I felt anger said mentally Males to me! this was obeyed by the twin green clothed males flew into my hands’ grips despite they blared Blast it!

I wound up knocking them unconscious by slamming their heads together. I then darted towards Barry.

Barry appearing recognized me who halted his walk spoke Who are you as yourself?

I reached Barry as the name he’s known as putting a hand on the male’s throat while sensing me urged to will aside the Berserker Berserker away.

This was urged like Barry was speaking compellers’ chatter talk You will, will that aside.

I saw Barry’s face turn to shock followed by the male speaking Rey Hope?

I again was given that name that annoyed me called that name than Tom Thunder as original name of Mindbender was used.

I remembered I was shocked along with a fainting feeling which persisted despite hearing Sleep, sleep, sleep!

I released my hold onto Barry’s neck and rolled my eyes and felt myself falling forwards to feel the rugged floor on my front followed by asleep.

I had a dream like always said involving humanoids freed from tube traps like the one I was freed of. The dream involved me waking up not literally but in my mind.

I woke up in my mind by dream with confusion running through me Where am I?

I was in my mind’s dream finding I was lying on bed of stone with lightning hitting me from above right onto one side of the chest. I found according to dream breathing oxygen for the first time. I got a hand coming into my eyesight I eyed belonged to a male warily to find he didn't have a face instead only had orbs for the eyes to my confusion despite later seemingly familiar to me.

I heard voices speaking unsure if it was my ears or mind I refuse! He's one of them!

I frowned as an image flashed in my mind I confused to see as I eyed the male. I got up in an acrobatic move as if I had muscle memory.

I frowns hearing the voice sounding male blaring as I continued to hear Keep the argument out of my head now! Just argue among yourselves and leave me out it!

I kept the frowned further finding the voice sounded familiar to focus onto the no faced male to speak blurting to my shock Hades.

I felt confusion to the word as I heard Come with me now.

I stared at the male aka Hades on identification later that gently took my arm and pulled me into a direction off the altar. I followed, finding us both in a vast room containing boxes in rectangular shapes to my confusion. I found the boxes had figures in them that were still to my shock as the male led me out of the room to a hallway looking odd to me. I found Hades led the way to a small room containing males inside that had blonde shoulder length hair with blank faced with brown eyes and pointed ears wearing uniforms.

I blurted Highlanders.

I felt confusion hitting me as Hades I figured I’ll call him got me inside the small room followed by a bang sound of something blocked the way of the hallway.

I said Elevator.

I heard Humph sounds from the male I dubbed Hades to find the elevator I figured as it was called going up in some floating movement I not surprised to feel. I didn't say a word as Hades kept hold of my arm and then got me out of the elevator as I heard the familiar sound of a siren sounding faint.

I found the uniformed males shutting a large door in the wall as I heard You might want to restore his memories Meritanians.

Is there a Meritanian named Tank? I spoke while adding "Merra?

Hades said, Welcome to Terranea you to remember.

I got hit with a door into my mind zapped opening by a familiar plant form of a rosebush followed by door shattering. I felt Hades’ clawed hands onto my mouth as I muffled shrieked of who I was. I remembered myself as identified by Rey Hope’s name instead of the original the one’s name Tom as High Council servant Mindbender with First One’s name of Tom Thunder.

My name is not what I remembered was my actual birth given name. I remembered as said despite Hades said once I stopped screaming Knock him out asleep.

This was obeyed by me falling asleep followed by me coming up lying in a padded room wearing nothing but shorts on my form and black gloves on my hands. I sensed my request for gloves onto my hands were honored as my persona. I saw my beige pale legs with thickness muscles and feet were bare of anything. I admit it I felt confusion running through me with where I was.

Ugh! I groaned loudly.

I looked at my hands that were gloved which I took one off to look at seeing they were First One’s pale white shade like not seen the sun for tanned status. I saw my hand was my pale hand, but I sensed I didn’t want them to bare recovered the hand. I admit I felt confusion persisted on who I was like my memories were removed when I came out of that tube. I spied on an expeller, as one calls it, thing with a sink over it and a mirror which I got up and went to it. I widened my golden eyed First One’s eyes of shock seeing the face staring back at me. I saw my face was twinning to Mindbender’s himself from the looks of it identifying me as Tom Thunder’s. This visual caused the door into my mind labeled that name Mindbender the Berserker burst opened shattering apart with other doors opening shattered as memories spilling into my mind.

I bent down groaning Ooh oh I remember now who I am.

I recalled Barry himself calling me by name of Rey Hope when I was gagging the male before fainting, I recalled That’s my heritage named identity Tom Mindbender Thunder when my name as identified is Rey Hope.

I found to my disgust I still have a computer like memory from unable to sleep much from insomnia of remembering this and that. I straightened up my form to eye myself with the facial still having that marking tattooed onto the cheek but instead of a line formed a cross symbol. I eyed my hair to see its length was waist length in the color black I confused to why my hair was longer than normalized lengths for males.

Berserker forwards! I said mentally viewing my Berserker’s said side glowing eyeballs of sun’s golden color I saw.

I felt my hands indicated nails needed trimming by the gloves’ uncomfortable status.

I willed that aside by saying "Berserker away!’

Ooh oh! I put a hand to cover my eyes and groaned loudly.

I heard a door sliding open by Squeak! off my right in the room.

I sensed padded treads coming towards me in a slow manner.

I looked on my right to see Barry from before walking towards me from an open doorway in the room the male signaling I’m friend not foe. By bare old looking like First One’s hand up and down gesture Calm down.

Barry spoke What form of name you wish to call yourself other than Tom Mindbender Thunder is taken?

I recalled Barry spoke sounded like firmly saying You’re not taking that name of Mindbender with the names of Tom Thunder despite the names are already used.

This is true for the names are already used as the titled name of the leader of the assassins’ taking orders from the Assassin Lord as dubbed the group the High Council of Assassins.

I spoke hearing my voice sound oddly like my own but with an accent to it like Terranean accented No not Tom Mindbender Thunder’s name but I’ll take the persona name of Rey Hope since you called me that with ideas on what names for me to take as my name. I do remember Tom Mindbender Thunder’s memories from Terranea as servitude of the group.

I saw I know of that. look on Barry’s face who spoke I see.

Barry adding speaking Meritanians figured to refer you as Rey first name and second name as Hope as your First One’s named public identity but it’s your choice on what naming sound you want as your nickname officially.

I must agree as said towards Barry I’ll take the name of Rey despite this weirdness of Hope as I’m unsure of that as my second name to take but we’ll figure it out.

Ugh! I groaned loudly pausing then I spoke Your Barry?

I got a head bob from him which I added What was I doing coming from a tube?

Barry appeared glare while speaking You were put there by the Meritanians said to detect you and your arrival to Terranea. Planet indicated she accepted you, but you can’t leave without a deadly ailment of death. Once Terranea issues acceptance towards non born native planet’s humanoids they to stay for life.

That’s where I got that talk of warning of Don’t leave Terranea or you die.

Barry continued You are having Tom Mindbender Thunder’s appearance of facial and body but not known for the unusual hair’s length that’s uncut able with your ears appearing to look surgery cut.

I’m still hissing fitting about that eared status of my ears cut by the High Council I blame for doing this joke to me.

Barry said You’re sounding oddly like another’s unidentified voice when speaking not as known on records. Your glowing suns’ look of the eyes just prior to you fainting in front of me indicated you have a mental ability dubbed Berserker. What do you remember of yourself?

I spoke I remember various memories before I woke up in the tube to freedom. I also remember a life as an assassin to serve as a servant of the High Council of Assassins. I admit I’m willing to serve the Assassin Lord as dubbed for I don’t care to serve the Eyes’ group anymore.

I saw relief form on Barry’s face when I said this statement as I added I have the Berserker’s mental abilities that sided persona from knowledge has I recalled involving what I’m supposed to do with that in control.

This is when Barry firmly said, You have been roped into servitude of the Assassin Lord.

The Assassin Lord’s insisting me to serve them as said You serve us to give Terranea protection from the hissing fitting of us natives not following the rules of an off-planet ruler group the High Council of Eyes.

The planet’s High Council as I found out has said themed talk to rule Terranea their own way as their own group without another group’s interference despite a war with off planet’s groups. I figured that out when lying in bed processing memories of my computers like mind memory that doesn’t forget anything very much. I don’t sleep very well because of that computer memories processing into my mind.

I just lie in bed eyeing the ceiling dictating my mind to say, Eyes shut to see this.

The Meritanians from Aire are also in Terranea who seemed to say themed talk We’re not serving the High Council of Eyes despite been from that planetary world.

I must agree with their statement of refusals for I’m still furious with the Eyes’ group with their stunt of using me as a pawn in their anger than thinking smartly. I realized the Eyes’ group could have focused on Aire’s business than trying to control Terranea’s people to yell at the planet’s rulership group themselves.

I know from memories into my mind the natives seemed to say towards their planet’s High Council group as said, Focus onto us to rule us and screw off planet’s ruling.

What’s your name for records? I got asked by Merra.

Merra is a miniature Meritanian plant that is sentient to think humanoid way and communicate in telepathic mind walking talk. Meritanians come in various sizes such as Merra’s houseplant size.

Merra moved onto my window still of my two-room apartment signaling I’m here!

I realized that Merra’s question is valid for I haven’t introduced myself as I typed this computer entry onto the laptop said, Originally used for communication visually.

I figured out the communicator could be used for typing entries word to word was another form of communication called journaling.

That was First Ones’ that passed down that typing communication in records from Moor’s Tundra Island landing spot of the High Council that passed it down to the immigrants that spread among the natives. I got from Merra commenting.

Anyway, I meant to introduce myself, so what I’m labeled for the Zeskaya the tube’s medical facility where I was contained is where I came from location not identified to me. I’ve gotten the impression that the Zeskaya whatever it was, and its area’s location kept secret from me was the High Council was testing my loyalty as servant of them and the planet’s protection group the High Council of Assassins by having me being examined and tested before I was truly given knowledge of Terranea and her secrets. I’ve haven’t protested that status from the impression that the Zeskaya must be protected at all costs to be preserved intact with location kept a secret from natives.

I typed this statement while journaling I am called Rey Hope as my name for servitude with title as Mindbender.

I typed as I added I keep feeling like my name is a lot more than that naming word sound.

I got a memory into my mind I typed as stated a dream of mine formerly while in a tube’s trap. I walked in the dirt roadway among streetlights shining with the shining light of moonlight illuminating between trees that seemed quietly devoid of anyone around. I wore clothing on my form that felt like a hooded robe by hood felt covering my always black haired in short wavy style head with a mask covering my face only baring my golden colored human like eyes while hiding my humans’ ears covered. I eyed myself to see that the clothes in colored dark purple along with my right hand was holding as tall as me silver staff with the letter Z at the topmost end that had an electrical zapper for targeting humanoids when button was pressed. I recalled the robe and staff was a godly being like persona as publicity went around acting planet side while committing godly like behavior as my job.

I was remembering this grumbled Argh.

I heard a voice emotionless and male tone added at introduction previously I’m Peter a Meritanian that lives on the ocean within vicinity of Moor’s Tundra this island is at.

I said Meritanians are sentient plants that are telepathic thinking humanoid way that are various sizes. Such as island’s sizes on the ocean like you are including land based to grow as trees and houseplants sizes.

Peter said, Correct so talk to me.

I obeyed to speak I was declared a godly being whenever I wore that robed disguise serving a goddess in front of the natives of this planet.

Peter sounded I know of that status but you to continue your tale for your mind is indicated you to be awake for its not time for you to sleep yet.

I recalled being within the vicinity for Peter to talk to me. I growled from lying onto the mattress I found my twitching body kept me from being asleep.

Argh. I said in response to Peter’s talk.

I felt like agreeing with Peter because I couldn’t sleep with my body twitching and mind whirling with various information like a computer always calculating and giving me memories to process. I got up as remembered the location was a square rectangle blue walled stone blocked jail cell, I was contained in. I went to a spot in the jail cell to sit down seat on the floor with back leaning against the wall with barred door off my right. I was spied on by a guard a hybrid by cut ears. My massive bed of mattress with a blanket and pillows was off my left dead ending the jail cell.

I said, The High Council is this planet’s ruling body group is mainly made up of nine Highlanders, a pointed eared species insulted as elves but are telepathic with mental communication without a voice box organ. The Highlanders crashed their warship into one of the islands in the South Pole’s regional circular line. The area is dubbed Founder’s City, but the island is dubbed Moor’s Tundra planet side in Mira. The Highlanders called this habitual planet the name of Mira. Mira the planet is closer to the sun as the third planet. Mira is orbiting in the same galaxy as Uzair, the twinning tandem planets of Aire and Uzan that are the fourth orbiting behind Mira as habitual planetary worlds. Uzair is where the Highlanders originated from with their warships when they landed in Mira. The Highlanders using their warship built their hometown base in Moor’s Tundra as they called the grassed steppes island that’s flat with only one mountain that isn’t like filled with ice and snow instead is cold but not enough for winter to form.

Peter said, The High Council are the ones who insisted you humans which you’re a part of the species be known by the name of First One for one and First Ones for more than one. The name stuck whether you humans like it or not.

I recalled what I said towards Peter involving a dream of mine that continued in a tube’s status I recalled my mind gave me the dirt roadway scenario with trees in between. I got attracted to the white light shining between trees and went to it. Nothing to do with death but a building.

I saw the light had a building dubbed Fires Restaurant.

I walked inside the restaurant to see it was a dining room on both sides of me with multiple booths with a bar as a barroom in front of me having double doors leading to the kitchen. I saw both three males and three females all looking like triplets as humans aka First Ones like me, them all clad in black and white businessmen suit of uniforms. I saw an alone male with one ear First One and one ear Highlander like a hybrid was wearing a suit with a tie. They were gathered in the restaurant in a semi-circle like discussion of a group’s meeting, but they were silent. I eyed the group to see that they were silently staring at the entrance to the restaurant. I frowned, eyeing them in the eyes seeing that they didn’t seem to see me. I looked around and spotted a male appearing to be teenaged old with glasses on his face wearing a cap on backwards and sweatshirt with jeans on seated at a table. The teenager appearing to be barely sexually matured was appearing to be reading a book that looked large and thick sized.

I telling the tale said, I eyed the teen and felt drawn to him as I found myself slipping inside taking control of his body.

I looked up from controlling the teen’s body to see a crowd of people enter the restaurant. I eyed the people gathered in the restaurant going to seats to sit and at the bar in front of the kitchen to find that they didn’t seem to be First Ones or Highlanders to me but appeared to be hybrids from the looks of their ears. I watched as both male and female triplets served the hybrids menus and food along with the male hybrid waiter in suit doing the bartending job at the bar handing out drinks. I frowned watching the scene lengthy to notice that the waitresses and waiters ignored me seated at a booth with the thick book still in hand despite I was looking at them. I was staring at them expecting service which they balk giving me service despite I’m looking watching them.

I added to myself as typed I’m not sure of what to make of this scene but figured the restaurant is some sanctuary into my mind a break from sickening me with memories from me contained in containment of a tube while serving the High Council while I’m asleep.

I was typing the tale when I heard Merra say Correct that’s your mind’s sanctuary while asleep in containment in that tube’s trap. It’s when your out of containment that sanctuary isn’t there for you.

I grumbled Argh.

I recalled I got up and began to pace I was grumbling my noise argh repeatedly.

The pacing got the guard said Sit! Your wasting energy!

Peter after a pause sounded What’s your creation story of how you came to existence after the High Council crashed landed here a century ago? I heard they manipulated you to come to existence by medical technology in a bragging way after you were born. I haven’t heard your version of the story. The High Council kept saying this story of you created without the female’s carrying status.

I had stopped pacing for the guard roared at me verbalized Stop moving your wasting energy!

I obeyed to sit seat on the floor back leaning against the wall in response.

I was urged by Peter saying, Your story?

I obeyed to relay the story to Peter The Highlanders said to create myself as a male baby implanted artificially into a female to carry me. I came from Aire’s Mindbender’s samples of his biological matter with medical technology. They claimed they successfully created me as a baby without that biological carrying status involving females carrying babies. I do know that isn’t the case for I was named Rey of Hope by my mother holding me in her arms saying the wordings before she passed away bleeding to death. The Highlanders shortened that name to Rey with second name of Hope used.

I paused to sigh and spoke My birth as I said is what I remembered myself was born from a female who died bleeding to death. I confess I don’t know what locational area I was born in either planet side or off planet I don’t know to this day so don’t ask me. I was huge size that made her bleed to death while she pushed me out. She was still bleeding heavily bled to deceased status that continued afterbirth that killed her. I heard her said the words ray of hope repeatedly as she died which is how I got my name. I remembered her death and medic declaration of myself as a boy. Once I grew enough to survive in a tube, aged one year old I was put into one and grew up to adulthood size with a childlike mind learning how to grasp speech. I was taught by a hybrid servant of the High Council who emphasized the physical health of karate’s combat including making me practice the Berserker’s telekinetic abilities. He later, once I started thinking sanely like the First One, put me into school a military boarding school to learn with my mind. I’m told my mind was computer like as explanation to why I couldn’t forget anything.

Peter said, No wonder your time at the school was awful from that junk of your mind indicating it.

I said, finding Peter’s statement true They found me stupid from appearance refusing to believe I had a smart mind. I was accused of cheating which it took another in gym class that did a high-level karate’s complicated pattern I copied entirely. He was recorded as I was after viewing him once that proved this memory recall’s accuracy. The headmaster Master Lord not a joke on his name did witness that and ordered me to verbalize my tests which I passed with A’s and B’s. I didn’t graduate early from smarts instead had to take the whole time the school had five years for grades in the school including an extra graded year to prove I understood the information than repeating it robotically. After graduation I was sent to Adelina Island’s villages I wandered around in boredom. I was bored unsure of what to do with myself other than wandering around exploring the villages’ area and drinking lemonade in barrooms.

I paused to sigh and spoke I’m apparently the Highlanders’ version of Mindbender, the dedicated servant of the High Council, from off planet Aire their capital planetary world of Uzair.

Peter spoke The Highlander medics were recreating both Mindbender and their version of the High Council after they landed on Mira.

I said, I’m the prototype Mindbender as their version. I have permanent black always short hair and rare colored First Ones’ golden eyes. I have a side dubbed Berserker that indicated me using mental telekinetic sides as activated.

I will side forwards by using mental command Berserker forwards!

"This morphs my upper body from the pectoral muscle of the nipples area to shoulders to bulk up like armored appearances. This bulking includes the entire length of my arms including my fingernails become like cat’s claws sharp enough to scratch skin. This included cutting clothes like knives if the garments aren’t prepared to avoid this cut’s status. I have on my face the reason for the scariness. Once morphed through my eyes by eyeballs shifts into an entirely glowing golden suns colored. I have a forehead that extends with two pointed knobs on both sides that can be mistaken as horns. The extending recedes my hair always forever short wavy black back a bit
