לא אנושי בעליל
השיחה האחרונה בהשראת ניהאו עוררה בי פרץ של יצירתיות לנסות וליצור גזע חיזרי שהוא בלתי אנושי בעליל, תשלבו את זה עם המוזיקה החדשה שארגנתי לאוטו שמבוססת על SC2 (תמשיכו לקרוא, מי שמכיר את המשחק יבין למה אני מתכוון בסוף) ויצרתי מעין עולם פוסט-אפוקליפטי שנראה שאולי יהיה כיף לשחק בו. אז לשיפוטכם טיזר קטן, תגידו לי מה אתם חושבים והאם כדאי להריץ משחק קטן פה בפורום? It all began one quiet Thursday evening or at least that what we would like to think… I remember that day quite clearly, I was doing my patrol on MLK St. and it was dark as the beard on all man McBrady, he was one of the first to go come to think of it, anyway as I drove down the street I noticed four kids standing by the side of the road, they seemed a bit drunk and I decided to stop over and check things out. Well, as I pulled up next to them I founded the siren and stepped out of the car, take a deep breath and try to look as serious as I can, the kids didn't even flinch. I managed to say something like "What are you kids doing" before it began- you know what I mean, that bright light, the kind that seems to emanate from all around you like you were standing IN the sun. The sudden flash blinded my sight and the squad car's siren went crazy, first it went all static and then a clear mechanical voice came through "WE COME IN PEACE" it said, he just repeated does same words over and over again, "WE COME IN PEACE… WE COME IN PEACE… WE COME IN PEACE…" I couldn’t see anything, I couldn't hear anything aside from that damn voice; I just grabbed my ears and screamed. Suddenly, as unexpectedly as it began, the light was gone and siren went back to it's wailing, I was left alone in the dark staring at these three frightened kids, one of them looking up to me and said: "Where did George go?". Honestly, I had no idea what happened. I figured the kid just ran and I really wasn't in the mood to go and search for him, I got back to my squad car and closed the door. The kids said something- I didn't really listen. The police radio went crazy; everyone was talking about the light- no one knew what the hell just happened. Over the next few days, all the TV talked about was the bright light and that repeated sentence, apparently it happened all over the world- but not everywhere, only in major cities. The next month all sort of Whackos went on TV claiming to know the truth: aliens were coming, God has decided to come and get us, angels swooped down to the city and blessed us, the Devil came back to earth and so on and so forth… After a few month of relative quite, the light struck again, I was sleeping in my bed after a long night patrol, I think it was about 5am, and then this light seeped through the window shutters, I opened one eye half asleep as my radio-alarm clock started making funny sounds I stared at it, not fully understanding, when the same voice started all over again… "WE COME IN PEACE" it said. This time the light stayed a little longer- I ran to the window and peeked through the shutters- nothing but bright, blinding light. I started to head down the stairs and almost made it through the door when the light went out- and as my eyes adjusted to the "darkness" I saw to bright lights heading toward me, fast. I don't if it's the police training or just good reflexes but I jumped out of the way just in time for the Toyota pickup to crash through the door and into the lobby. The car halted its advance halfway through the main hall and I ran to aid the person inside, as I got near the smoking vehicle I noticed no one was in the front seat! The car was empty! I tried to open the front door but it was locked from the inside- not only that, the seatbelt was still closed, just no one was sitting there for it to protect… The next day the TV told of massive disappearances throughout the world- friends leaving nothing but the memories behind, cars left running but empty, coffee mugs left full, hot and steamy on trendy outdoor coffee tables- everywhere people went missing and only two things connected them to each other- the bright light and the fact they were all outside. It's been 5 years now. The world population is so thin we huddle together in small underground communities, staying away from open spaces, living off scraps and trying to give each other hope. With all our weapons and technology we couldn't even fight them, we don't even know what they want or who they are. Only one sentence that is now painted as graffiti in every store in the world- WE COME IN PEACE…
