Lost love

Here is an old story I wrote a couple months ago, but never wanted to put it on here. I decided to put it on here tonight to decide if it is any good? I know there might be quite a few errors because it is a rough idea I had at the time . . . Enjoy it: 

It was supposed to be a perfect weekend for us. She was supposed to come on the 27th of April to spend Friday and Saturday night with me so she could stay the whole weekend. I had it all planned out: Friday we would go have dinner at the local town park, Saturday we would spend all day doing something together, then that night I would surprise her with with dinner at her favorite restaurant, Fuji, then surprise her with a night bowling, then I would take her up on a hill by my house so we could stare at the stars and just talk with each other. Of course though I should have known, things don’t always go according to plan. Who would have guess they would have gone this badly though. 

April 17th, 2013, my girlfriend was leaving for a trip to Florida with her family for like five days. This was all in the plan, I knew she was going on this trip and it was fine, she would be back in time for our special prom that I had planned out for us. She had no idea what I had planned, and I was just getting more excited by the day for surprising her. 

My girlfriend’s name was Emma Manbury. She is absolutely gorgeous, but of course I would say that right? I am not kidding though she is absolutely the most beautiful girl I have ever laid eyes on. She has amazingly smooth blonde hair, the greatest blue eyes you would ever want to stare into, and just incredibly smooth skin. Her personality is just amazing, she is very opinionated (believe me when I say you will never win an argument with her), she can be ditzy which is what makes her great, and she just loves to laugh which I love. 

Enough about me talking about how amazing she is, which you wouldn’t fully understand until you actually met her anyway. Back to her trip to Florida though. Well, she had a great flight down there, everything went perfect. She had let me know when she landed and everything. She took lots of pictures with her iPod which I got via a photo stream on my iPhone and iPad. She looked like she was having a great time. They had went to Disney World for there trip. She took a picture in front of the famous Disney castle. 

The flight home is where everything had went wrong. The accident was devastating. What you might be thinking is that the plane crashed right? Well no, thats not what had happened. The flight went great, prefect even. Her plane landed right on time like it was supposed to. After her plane ride is where everything went wrong I was told. I wasn’t there, and maybe if I was there things could have happened differently. I should have been there, but no instead I was at work washing some semi-trucks. 

I was told by her mother over the phone that Emma had apparently walked across the parking lot to go to there car, and some reckless jackass had come around the corner had hit her going 15 MPH. He had broken both of her legs, and cracked five ribs, and caused serious head trauma. The hospital she was flown to was in Rochester, Minnesota. The second I had heard about it I just took of driving from my home in Owen, Wisconsin. It was about a three hour drive, but the way I was driving, I was there in two hours. 

I loved this girl, I had been dating her for about three years now, and I couldn’t imagine life without her. The car ride was probably the longest time I have been apart from her, and I have gone a month without seeing her before. How could something like this have happened? If only I was there, things could have been completely different. If I was there I could have picked her up out front, so she wouldn’t have had to be in the parking lot at all. 

Her mother told me on the phone as I was driving, that she was in serious condition and that she had went into a coma. I was terrified to lose her. She was my everything as I told her all the time. We have been dating for three years so of course she is very important to me! Only reason we aren’t farther than dating is because I am still in high school and still planning on attending college. 

When I had gotten to the hospital they tI saw her mother immediately. You could tell she had been crying because around her eyes, which were the exact same color as her daughters, were red. She came up to me and said in a somewhat soothing voice, “Emma is in surgery right now for her legs and broken ribs. They said it could take awhile.” 

I hadn’t cried yet because I couldn’t believe the news that I was told. I didn’t want to believe it, but now that I was here I couldn’t help the tears. I couldn’t help it. Emma’s mom brought me into a hug as I cried and said, “It’ll all be okay, she is a tough girl.”

Pawns

Two humans (or what appear to be humans) are sitting in front of a futuristic computer screen. On the computer screen is a man walking through a modern day home.

"I am sick of this human, he has become to independent and self possessed."

"Then why don't you just kill him off?"

"I have thought about it, but I have been trying to get him to become wimpy and some-what of a man whore," stated a man with a very techno-style accent.

"I say just buy a new one, and have him do the things you want. I mean wouldn't it be simpler that way?" questioned another man but with a more foreign accent.

"I guess. I mean it is hard to change a human's path isn't it?" asked the first man.

"Yeah after like 15-20 years they start to develop there own since of way, they discover new things that users bring into there world. They decide to change paths from what we have originally set for them. Sure richer people control the better people in the game, and don't care what they do as long as they are successful," explained the foreign accent man.

"Items and people in this are starting to get outta hand though! To kill my human is like $1500," said the techno-style accent man pointing at the screen which was showing prices of methods to kill human.

"I think it should be free to kill a human if it is required of us to kill them when we are done with them," said foreign accent.

"I agree Franklin. They require everyone to kill of their human if they want a new one, but they charge us for it. I wonder what would happen if someone didn't kill of there human?"

Franklin, the foreign accent man, looked shocked at what Josh, the other man, had said. "No one has ever done that Josh. That is crazy talk, it can't be done! That could risk the existence of the game, The Human Condition."

"It can be done, you just have to be smart at it. Plus how would you know that it would risk the existence of the game? No one would know because no one has actually ever done it before. We could be the first ones? Aren't you somewhat interested in what could happen?" exclaimed Josh.

"Well yeah I am sure that we are not the first ones to even think about this! Hypothetically speaking though, if we were to do this, how would we do it?" asked Franklin. Franklin seemed to be very intrigued all of a sudden. "We could be the creators of something greater if we did this couldn't we, the first ones . . . ever, hypothetically speaking though of course."

"Well I am a computer hacker, so we could potentially figure it out. I am sure if we work hard enough we could find away around ending a human cycle with out ending his life. You want to try and see what would happen to a human life without it being under control by any Starter?"

Josh and Franklin are two Starters. Starters are aliens from another planet in the Milky Way Galaxy actually. It is an undiscovered planet called by its natives (Starters), Antecedent. Josh and Franklin are the two Starters that are responsible for the Great War. For the entire existence of the Earth, human beings thought they were there own self. In reality, Starters have been controlling there every move. Everything that has happened in human history, has happened because the Starters were playing a game called, The Human Condition. Starters created earth and everything on it because they wanted to create the ultimate game ever!

Starters would be able to control the life of one human being at a time. They decided everything that the human did. Eventually the game on Antecedent became a Starters life. Starters spend all day controlling the human beings, and when they send their human to bed Starters went out and did there stuff till they woke them up. (Starters never sleep, plus a day on Antecedent is longer than a Earth day).  Starters made money on the game also which is what made the game more of a lifestyle for a Starter.

What Josh and Franklin did was open the human world to us. A human that was aloud to think for itself could make others think for themselves and learn about a Starters existence! After Josh unlocked Zac Ruiln, his human being you found out earlier, all it took was three months for the Great War to begin. Where Humans rebelled against Starters who invaded, for there freedom. So begins the story of the pawns.

There is more to come on this interesting concept. This has been a fictional story by Noah Mark Bitney. 

True love

There once was this couple that I knew who were literally meant to be, but apparently they didn't really know it. They had met three years ago at a gas station in a small little town. This is the beginning of there story.

Jack, the guys name, had just stopped to fuel up his car but to find out he had no money left in his wallet for gas. He was stranded. Julia though was the kind of person who would help any stranger no matter how strange they looked. She had actually lived in the little town the hate met on this fateful day. She ran to the gas station for a gallon of milk, but not for her life to be turned upside down.

She saw Jack sitting there and got curious because he wasn't really doing anything. So when she had went to the cashier who she knew well she asked, "Um Jeremy, what is this man outside doing here?"

Jeremy was an older man and responded in his wheezy voice, "Oh he is basically stranded here because he has no gas and no money. No one will lend him some money because he lives about three hours away and he needs gas to get there. Thats what he told me anyway." Jeremy coughed a couple times into his handkerchief, 40 years of smoking didn't do him any good. "I told him he could stay here as long as he needed to."

Julia seemed interested in the man, intrigued really at the fact that he didn't have any money. I mean who leaves home to go three hours without at least $20 bucks just in case. "Doesn't he want to call someone to come pick him up or something?" she asked, her curiosity mounting.

"He said he has no one to call," replied Jeremy.

"See ya later Jer," said Julia waving leaving the building, milk in hand. She headed toward Jack, but of course she didn't know who he was at the moment. "HEY, you whats you name?" she yelled at Jack pointing to him with her free hand.

Jack looked around wondering if this beautiful woman walking out of the gas station was talking to him. "Um me?" he replied as she got closer.

"Yeah you, I heard you were in some trouble?" she asked setting her milk down on the bench where he was sitting.

All Jack could think was that he had never seen anything more beautiful in his life. "Um yeah, outta gas, and outta money," he said trying not to stare.

"Well I was just thinking about going on a road trip if you'd wanna join me so you can get your money?" she offered the man. She really wasn't but the moment she had load eyes on this man something inside her changed. "Something about him just makes me wonder," she thought to herself. "Where abouts you from?"

Jack could not believe what this women was offering. Who would be willing to help out a complete stranger, much less drive him to his home and back? "There is no way I could ask you to do that. I live about three hours north from here," Jack said looking at her.

"Well I am willing to give you a lift there and back so you can get some money for gas, if you want to? I been looking for a reason to get out of town anyways," she had said. She had now looked at him, really looked at him, and noticed that he was a very charming looking guy.

"I am willing to take you up on that offer ma'am if you tell me two things: your name and why you would help a complete stranger that you have never met before? I mean what if I am a crazy person?" asked Jack.

"Well I would have to respond to those questions with this," said Julia as she sat down on the bench next to Jack. "I asked for your name first so until you answer my question you won't be getting any answers from me," Julia replied in a kind of joking sassy way.

Jack chuckled. He knew he was already starting to like this girl. "Ha well my name is Jack Hilmen," he said holding out his hand, "nice to meet you."

She took his hand and shook it. She noticed he had rough hands, but yet they had a sense of warmth when they touched her skin. "Well Jack, now to answer your questions, my name is Julia Brewin. Second I would hope your not a crazy person because you seem to be a good man to who I would like to learn more about on a quest to locate you some money," she finished jokingly.

They both laughed. Jack realized he really did like this woman even though they just met. She was cute and funny. He had been thinking though the same thing she was, "He would like to learn more about her also." So he had accepted her offer, within ten minutes they were out on the open highway talking with each other. They had learned that they had things in common, some things not in common but that is the way with everyone. She was adventurous, he was a quite person who liked order.

By the end of the car ride there they had realized that they wanted more than just this casual acquaintance. They shared a kiss, and that was when they knew they wanted to be together. They never came home that day when they could have. Julia had spent a whole weekend with Jack at his home where they learned more about each other than they ever could have imagined. If Julia wouldn't have noticed him at the gas station none of this would have never happened. Jack was grateful for the fact of his car running out of gas at that town because if it wouldn't have he never would have met his true love.

He knew that by the end of there first time together that he really truly loved her, and Julia realized it too they just never told each other until later. They both had known though that they were meant to be.

What they didn't know waking up on that morning they met was that there life could be flipped upside down by one person. One person who made them so incredibly happy. When they left each other that Monday morning at the gas station, they had promised to continue to see each other every singe weekend.   One thing they didn't and did know was this weekend had and would completely change there lives . . . forever.

Change, it happens

Remember being a kid? Remember all the dream you had, or when your imagination just wandered free and you didn't give a shit about what anybody thought? You just did what you loved right? Things change though. Imagine as a kid caring about a car payment or what kind of cell phone plan you need. Weird right? No kid has any of those worries in there life, well at least for a little while until things change again. Change is a natural way of life. It is like death, it is inevitable. 

The biggest change that you would go through in life from the beginning is graduating High School. All your life your parents have had control over you, you have had to go to school and do well to pass with decent grades, and you didn't know what was out there waiting for you. As soon as you turn 18 and graduate from High School though all of that changes. You don't have to continue on with schooling, you don't have to live with your parents anymore, you need a job, and you need to figure out what you think you purpose in life is. Your whole life changes after graduating from High School. You need to find out what it is that you want to do with you life. 

For some it would be not continuing on with your education, and just finding a job without a college degree. For some that will work, some people with just a High School Diploma do really REALLY well. Other though continue on with there education to become a doctor, writer, director, marine biologist, engineer, teacher, chemist, and well you get the point. 

Now what about getting married and having kids? You never think about that as reality as a kid. Sure little girls plan there wedding, but you actually never REALLY think about one day actually having to get married. As a kid you just go with your imagination. You played in the sandbox, or at the park pretending to be superhero's. Not thinking that one day you could potentially be playing a superhero in a movie, or hauling sand in trucks for some company. 

There is one thing though that you never actually put thought into until you are older. Have you ever honestly ever thought about death as a little kid? Have you ever thought about how in fact one day you aren't going to be existent on this world? One day you will die, but the world will continue to live on. It is the ultimate inevitable. You can't avoid it no matter how much you try. It is a scary thing to think about because you just don't think about it but it is the truth. One day in the (hopefully) distant future your heart won't be beating on this world any longer. 

One thing to think about though is not death, but change and how it comes in all forms of your life. Change is as inevitable as death, in the fact that there is really no control over it. Look how much the world of technology has changed in the past 10 years? Look how much you have changed in 10 years? Take a look outside or at your local town. How much of it has changed in 10 years? Everything changes as time goes on. You cannot avoid it. 

As a student who is about to graduate from High School, I have started to become accustom to change. With my parents coming into quite a bit of money, to them changing the place where I grew up. Change has become quite natural in my life. I used to have to work everyday milking cows, now I go to work at a trucking company, and have a car payment to make every month. Just 10 years about I was eight years old and probably didn't have a care in the world. Now I have 10,000 cares in the world from my girlfriend to my amazing friends at school. 

So just get used to change because IT does happen, and there is nothing you can do about it. 

What if . . .

You know who you are right? You know what foods you like to eat, and food that you don't like. You know what kind of movies you like to watch, and music you like to listen too. You know who your parents and friends are. You know that 2+2=4. You know that we live on the plant Earth. You know lots of things right? What about the things you don't know though? Have you ever thought about them?



I was watching Television one night, in my room after a long day at work. I was watching "Shrek" on TBS. When all of a sudden it happened. "BREAKING NEWS!" The news channel interrupted what I was watching. They told me the unthinkable. Sure people might have thought this was very possible, but most people thought that it was impossible, that there was no such thing. All I found out after that night that I was certain of, and after the course of the next year was one thing, that we were all wrong on what we thought.

On that night in my room I never thought that there would be another planet out there in the universe that would hold humans just like us. NASA told us that the, Hubble Space Telescope, had found another planet in our solar system. This wasn't just another rock floating in the sky though. It was another planet that sustained life. This planet had humans that looked, talked, and acted like us. Except they were 100 years more advanced than us.

Apparently from what the NASA experts have found out is that, is that this recently discovered  planet has known of our existence also for over 200 years. They have been spending that time to find a way to get here and take over our planet. This is what we believe though, not something we know. What we know is that there are other human beings out there. For years we thought that this was just a myth that aliens existed, but now we know that there are other forms of life out there in the universe.

NASA said they are working on getting some sort of probe out into space heading towards this planet, which they have named, Planet Life. What NASA says they want to do, is to find out more about this planet, and about the people on it. This is all NASA told the American public on that fateful night.

That night I could not and would not fall asleep again for a whole month. I was a journalist, and this was one of the biggest stories ever. Bigger than the Casey Anthony case. Bigger than Micheal Jackson or Steve Jobs dying. So, the second the television broadcast was off, I got up out of bed, pulled some of my gray sweatpants on and got to work. I booted up my iMac, and opened up Pages on my MacBook Air and started writing the first thoughts that came into my head:

What if the world as we know it is only a puppet show? What if the world we live in is controlled by this new world? What if all the UFO's that we have seen throughout our existence were these aliens checking up on us? What if they come and destroy our world? What if they come to enslave us now that we know about them? How do we know the truth? How will we ever discover more about them, when we have only gotten a man to the moon? These are all questions you should be asking yourselves now that we know, that we aren't the only ones out here in the universe!


What were you doing when you found out? I was sitting in bed watching an old classic movie, "Shrek". Weird because now that is what everyone is going to be talking about. This is all we are going to hear about for the next month or so. This is a serious matter though. What if these people (aliens) on this other planet have the means to destroy us. Shouldn't NASA's first priority be to make some contact with these people? What do you think as a citizen of the planet Earth? 


Getting about one million hits a day on my site, should probably increase now with the fact that people are going to want to know more about this. It only took five minutes for my site to get one million hits with about ten-thousand comments on that post. That is when is happened though. That is when the Battle (or war as some people would come to call it over the year) for Earth began.
