Notes and Stories about time traveling from a man who claims to be me. I post one page of the story per day (except Sunday)

The world had come crashing down rather quick. In the sky scrolled words above every city that the world was a game, and listed the 473 creators of the world and also the math and the code that made up the world. A group of large mechs had escaped from the military and entered the city. The mechs were killing innocent civilians and blowing up anything that got in their path. The mech pilots were all assumed to have the Halo Virus. There was also a group of prostitutes on the news claiming that they had all performed acts with a very rich man infected with the halo virus. This man had told them he was a creator of time and map layout in the universe. The prostitutes on camera all claimed that the man said if they told anyone what he was doing he would kill them, and would not feel any pity, because he said that they really don’t exist.

An hour later a man with a halo was being interviewed on television. “I am your creator.” the man said. “I and others programmed you each with the abilities to learn and interact as separate programs in a much larger program which is a game called Terra Gaia 3. The Halo appears over one of you when a real life player playing this game selects one of you random programs wandering around your world. You think but trust me you do not exist. We have the ability to shut your world off and make all of you start over again not knowing anything except your fake programmed generic pasts, that you all believe you really have. We have done it before countless times. This game has not gone online yet but we need to fix the bugs, and we need to fix it to make this world a better place for all of you. So who ever figured out how to go beyond the pixilation of the game and is screwing up the sky, they are not only threatening themselves, but the lives of all of you. So I ask the stupid genius writing in the sky what is it going to be? Are you willing to kill everybody, are you happy your shattering every bodies hopes and dreams and scaring all the so called kids out there.

A couple seconds passed and the sky turned blue with the usual white fluffy clouds again. The man with the halo stood their smiling at the camera as his face beamed across the world on almost every television. Then the halo man remarked “We made you guys too smart for your own good!”, and as he stood their chuckling a lightning bolt came down from the sky and struck him. The camera crew surrounding him thought he was dead but he rose up from the ground charred. “You stupid idiots, I felt that through my neural suit do you know what I can do to you. I am your God.” Then one of the camera crew smacked the haloed man with his camera while the other man filmed, and soon a group of onlookers jumped in and continued to beat the Haloed man senseless.

I was able to see the universe Terra Gaia 3 and a more experienced version of me told me to not enter into the universe fore it might be fatal for the universe. My other self told me to follow him and we would go to the root of creation for Terra Gaia 3. When we finally arrived at the direct source of TG3 we found ourselves in the office building of Virtuadyne Software Co. We walked by a couple offices to see that in each one an individual with a controller in his hand also wearing a full latex looking sensory suit sitting in front of a computer.
The clocks on the wall said it was 8 pm and even though most of the lights were off in the office, it seemed a lot of people were still working, or for that matter playing. Another George appeared near the end of the hallway and waved me and the other George over. We creeped along till we reached him and then he pointed at the CEO’s office. We entered slowly to find a very fat man squeezed into a sensory suit, part of the suit was unzipped so his gut had some breathing room. The CEO seemed unconscious with sweat dripping and his head rolled to the side, and in the air it smelled like something was burning. The computer that sat before him displayed people standing looking down, some looking angry while others looking confused.

The other George turned to me” We have to save these people from being shut down, we need to go grab some suits and controllers.”

Sam was lying down next to his new friend Paul on the ground, in order to not move his hand. His hand where ever it moved in the air made an imperfect boxy permanent glowing blue imprint. Two men were guarding the front of the shed where Sam was laying down. One of the men stepped further out, so he could now talk to a police officer who had just arrived at the scene. The man in the nice suit blocked the police officer’s view of what was inside the shed, namely Sam. The man in the suit told the police officer that the current situation is now a government matter, but an ambulance might be necessary. As more cops arrived at the scene, the man in the suit told them the same thing.



Soon a helicopter arrived on the scene, and a group of men got off and stepped into the shed. Two of these men escorted Paul out of the barn and as they walked out told Paul that he is not in any type of trouble, they just have questions and security issues. Four other men from the copter walked up and surrounded Sam. After Paul had completely left one of the men in a lab coat told Sam to hold still and said “Your going to be just fine.” Then pulled out a needle and stuck it in Sam’s arm. Sam felt the prick and said nervously “What’s going on, what are you doing tom me?” The men who surrounded Sam said “Just relax, you’ll be fine”.


Sam woke up in a panic from a dream to where he was tied down, and sure enough he woke and was tied down to a hospital bed. As soon as he popped out of sleep a nurse sitting down in a chair and reading a magazine stood up and said “I’ll be right back.” He looked at the straps over his arms, and realized there was stitching around his wrist. They appeared to have given him a new hand which he knew was electronic under the skin but Sam could not move it and felt pain when he tried.


One of the same men in a lab coat from the previous night in the shed, walked into Sam’s hospital room. “Hello, Mr. Nguyen, did I pronounce that right, crazy night a couple days ago. How are you feeling?”

Did you take my hand off? asked Sam.

“Yes, I’m sorry we had too, but we gave you a free new one that is going to cost tax payers a whole bunch of money. Your parents are down stairs but they can’t see you just yet, not my policy, but they know you had an operation. Can I trust you to loosen the straps. I’d take them off if I was allowed but it’s a no go. Can I loosen them.

“Yes, please” replied Sam.

“I’m doctor Redkin by the way. Mr. Nguyen are you feeling up to some questions right now or do you need some more sleep.”

“I’ll try.” said Sam

"Do you remember what happened after you were sedated the night at the shed?"

“I just assumed I fell a sleep, did something else happen?”

"Well a colleague of mine may have passed away. This was his second time seeing one of the blue holes in the sky, The other one has been covered up under lock and key so that no one can get to it, after it was deemed to dangerous to study, since a bunch of bad incidences occurred. Well after we sedated you. Doctor Huffstead my friend jumped through the triangle. My only reasoning is he thought it might be the last chance he has of studying the phenomenon. Well after this happened Dr. Huffstead was blue and ordered not to move. Doctor Huffstead then seemed to roll in on himself while others were orderd to fire upon him. The doctor let out a horrible echoing scream and disappeared. Do you have any recollection of any of this?” asked Dr. Redkin

No, is this secret? asked Sam.

"It probably should be, but today on the news some weird stuffs is happening. Well for instance yesterday me and my wife had noticed dramatic improvements in our health and bodies, and let me warn you to get ready for a shock. I’m going to open up the curtains to your room. Are you ready?”

“Uhm, yeah I guess so” said Sam.

Dr Redkin opened up the curtains, to reveal the sky was half bright white, and half black. “The news says this half black and half white is actually part of a big letter I, and it’s part of a sentence. The satellite images from space read “WE LIVE IN A GAME”.”

Paul led the High school seniors through a dying field of crops to the haunted house, the haunted house was found out to mean a dingy old barn that looked like it hadn’t been used in thirty years. The whole time Paul was leading, he held up the flashlight to his face, jokingly trying to be scary, even though it really wasn’t that dark outside yet. The girls started singing show tunes, to stop them selves from being scared. This whole singing show tunes was working in the fact that is was making things not scary at all. Sam was disappointed because this meant no hugging from being scared.


Sam was thinking how stupid this whole adventure was turning out to be. When they finally got to the old barn, which was more like a large tool shed, Paul had a smile on his face. “You guys ready,” Then Paul’s face didn’t look so sure anymore. He opened the faded shed door and everyone casually started to walk towards the entrance.


Inside was the most creepiest thing Sam had ever seen. As Lauren held onto Sam tightly, he looked ahead to see a blue triangle near the back of the shed about twenty feet away from him. The triangle was filled with a solid blue that seemed to emit a glow, and it stood still in the air about five feet away from the back of the shed and about three feet off the ground. There was scared hugs all around as the group slowly walked to the side of the triangle with a distance of seven feet between them and it.


Paul said “My brother said his friend touched it.” Paul was leading the way on getting closer to it. Then Michelle said “Hey you can’t even see it on the back side.” Every body went to look at the back and noticed it could not be seen. They were walking back and forth seeing from the front but not seeing it from the back. This action was making the floating blue triangle seem less scary, which at this point every one thought was a good thing.

Paul went up close to it and looked at it from about three feet away. “All I see is blue” he said as he turned his head facing his ear towards it. Everyone became quiet for a while. What do you hear asked Samantha. “Nothing” said Paul. Sam was noticing Paul was doing all the heroic work. He wanted in on a piece of the action, so he stood next to Paul.

“I’m gonna try and touch it” said Sam. Paul repeated my Brother friend said he touched it.
“What happened?” asked Sam.

“Nothing, well I guess, well he didn’t say anything happened just that he touched it.”

Sam went ahead an put the tip of his pointer finger into the blue triangle. Then Michelle said ”Look his finger tip is blue. People went around to the side and looked to see Sam’s finger go right through the triangle turning the part of the finger that went into the triangle a glowing blue.

Sam pulled his finger tip out to see that no change had occurred, nor did he feel anything. Sam then put his eye right up to the triangle and looked right into it. He saw nothing but blueness. “Maybe we should tell a scientist about this.” Sam said. Sam put his whole hand in the triangle. He moved his hand around being all blue. He then took his hand to the edge of the triangle moving it out from the side and not pulling it back out like his finger. Sam’s hand as he pulled it out from the side slowly appeared it was going back to normal color. Then he noticed some of his hand had remained blue, and it wasn’t going away. Sam and everybody grew scared at this, Calvin suggested pulling his hand out like he put it in and not take it out from the side. Sam put his hand back in the triangle and pulled it out.


The parts of his hands that were blue remained blue, but what was worse, everywhere his hand had been remained. His hand was leaving a glowing blue imprint in the air wherever it had been. The blue was not going away. He took two steps back and left two feet of blue fragmented streaks in the air, which made it seem like he was cracking a hole in the air. He looked At Lauren “Stay away!” she said as she backed towards the opening to the shed. Calvin said “Sam, stay where you are, don’t move. We will go get help.


Samantha asked if she could get a ride home because she was with her younger sister and she is going to be in trouble if her Mom finds out. Paul volunteered to stay with Sam, and all the others took off, with only Calvin and Michelle saying they would return. This left Paul with out a ride, and depending on Calvin to return. Paul sat down in the shed, while Sam stood there afraid to move.

“Maybe this is the start of your super hero carreer said Paul, the Blue Streak.


“Yeah”, I guess said Sam, “If I’m not a super villain, the guy who cracks blue holes in the sky.” Paul’s talking made the situation less frightening but eventually Sam got tired and decided to lay down, creating a bigger blue jagged line in the air.


“You’d think the Planets rotation would move the crack in the sky “said Paul “But I guess not.”

“That’s a good thing though” Sam said with a tired voice.


An hour and a half later Sam and Paul heard a noise coming towards the barn, expecting Calvin to bring back help. They found instead two men one wearing a long grey jacket and both are wearing white button down shirts with ties and black pants on. Upon entering the shed and seeing Sam one of the men says out loud “Holy $#!+ shouldn’t there be people guarding this thing.” The other man explains “We are the guards, now act professional, and turns to Paul and Sam. “All right, legally I got the right to shoot both of yous on site, but I aint gonna, please just tell us what happened.”

The other guy who was acting unprofessional is now on the phone “Yah, it’s real, but it’s no longer a blue triangle, it’s a blue triangle with some young guy connected
to it, yah, uh huh, looks like he’s been crying.”

The car was packed and it was a two hour drive to the get to the haunted house, which happened to be in the middle of nowhere, meaning it was going to be a long drive of looking at corn crops. Sam (Satoshi) thought at first it was going to suck, then he realized he was going to be sitting next to a pretty girl.


The road trip consisted of Calvin (Katsuhiro) driving and sitting next to him his girlfriend Michelle. Sam sat in the back seat with Lauren, Jessica, and Mike, who seemed an okay guy. In front of Calvin’s car leading the way was Paul and Samantha, Samantha’s little sister, and some other couple consisting of a jock and a cheerleader.


Sam was nervous sitting next to Lauren. He asked Calvin what she liked and Calvin told him just don’t talk about computers. Sam also didn’t know, but was wishing this was some kind of a date. He had hopes that Lauren would be scared, and she would need some one to hold on to, as seemed to be the plan expressed by Calvin. During the ride Sam started some small talk that seemed okay for the occasion and asked Lauren if she knew the story of the haunted house they were going to.

She said that all she was told was it’s a blue triangle in the air in the back of some old barn.


Sam looked puzzled “So how is a blue triangle haunted? like is it a haunted piece of art?”


“I’m not sure,” said Lauren “I heard it was a portal that’s floating in the air, and it’s in the shape of a blue triangle.”

“It’s a portal to Hell!” Calvin said, as he drove half smiling and making a half assed scary face to Michelle..

“No, it’s not!” said Michelle “On Wednesday it was a floating blue triangle, Thursday it became a blue triangle that was a portal, and earlier today it became a portal to Hell. For all we know it’ll probably be a yellow triangle that reads “You’re a sucker to have driven this far to see this stupid yellow triangle,” The only thing to probably be afraid of is some crazy farmer whose property were trespassing on.


It seemed the talking and stuff was going really well between everyone in the car, and then the girls had some inside joke that they kept saying out loud and none of the guys got it, but the girls thought it was really funny, and then they carried the joke on and on and Sam grew more and more annoyed, till the point that he could see a head ache coming on as he pressed his forehead to the back window and looked out at the “Moo Cows heee hee hee.” Then his fear of a head ache had gone away when Lauren asked about Sam’s family. Sam thought this was an “I want to get to know you” type question, stuff that a possible girlfriend might ask. Sam mentioned his older brother was in the military and is a mech pilot.

Lauren asked with no subtlety “Why’d he join the Military?


Sam casually answerd “My brother told me God likes soldiers. He explained to me when we play with our action figures, we don’t play with office worker Patrick, and Pizza Delivery guy Ryan. We play with the Flame Thrower dude and the Ninja Guy, and apparently my brother viewed life as we were God’s action figures, and he wanted to be the coolest action figure God ever had. That’s what my brother said. I personally think that my brother wanted to prove he was loyal and was faithful to Oceana because of how uncomfortable it is to be Eastasian.”


Once Sam said this the car grew quiet and Calvin turned quickly to give Sam an angry glance for bringing up the topic of ethnicity. One again Sam and Calvin and the rest of the people in the car some how felt divided. No one in the car felt any hatred towards anybody; it was just an uncomfortable silence that nobody knew what to say about or reply to, or think of a new subject that could lead out of Sam’s comment.


The war with between Oceana and Eastasia had been over three years before Sam was born. The war changed from Oceana fighting Eastasia to fighting Eurasia. However Eurasians generally look the same as Oceanans so it not as much fun to make fun of Eurasians as it is to pick on Eastasians. That is how Sam saw things, anyways. Most people in the car with Sam would say they don’t even think about it, but Sam had a hard time believing this from peoples’ mannerisms toward him. People were not mean to him but he believed they saw him as different.


Then Mike said “I heard there’s a lot of new cases of the Halo Virus happening in the military.” No one replied to this and Mike assumed he should shut his mouth.


Needless to say the romance was pretty much dead in the car. Now the only thing to hope for was a blue triangle in someone’s back field, or barn. Sam had not heard one matching story as the group drove towards there destination. As the drive went on, it appeared that Lauren was getting tired and she was leaning Sam’s way. Sam seemed ashamed of himself for feeling so giddy about Lauren leaning on him, but he was hoping they were not close to their destination, but sure enough The front car driven by Paul flashed its emergency lights, and pulled to the side of the road in a small dirt slope or ditch that looked like other cars used the area to turn around in.

Calvin pulled the car right behind. Before they could get out of the car, Paul ran to the side of the car knocking on Calvin’s’ window. Calvin rolled his window down. Paul stuck up a flash light to his face “Are you ladies ready for the portal to Hell!”

Death explained to me how we only had a few more universes to destroy, but we would eventually have to do this clean up from time to time. I wasn’t sure of my place with Death. I wasn’t sure if I was his goon, or slave, or if I could talk back to him or possibly provide input or advice. Also at this point I wasn’t quite sure if I was alive. It had been a while since I was in the normal world.


Death assured me the universes I destroyed were not conscious of their deaths. “If those beings remained they may pose a threat to actual conscious living beings. They may seem harmless and happy now, but you must believe it was for the best.” Death paused and looked around. “You want to play hero, though. I have just the thing. You will collect for me beings with a chance of becoming conscious; their emerging souls are not yet accounted for in Heaven or Hell.”


A handful of us were sent to the universe Terra Gaia 3 by Death. The name I was explained because if one were to find life in a solar system in a galaxy in the universe Terra Gaia 3, the third planet would be inhabited. It sounded too stereotypical, but I would later find out why this is.

The Halo Virus is an unexplained phenomenon. It is unknown what causes the Halo Virus and whether it is even a virus at all. Doctors who tried to study the recent phenomenon have proposed drugs, exposure to an unknown radiation, and even possession has not been ruled out. The reoccurring themes, associated with the virus are that people who have it, behave as they never displayed before in public. They seem to lack fear and inhibition, and witnesses of people with the condition say there appears to be a Halo over the person’s head. Often when a person with this condition dies another person in view of diseased sometimes becomes infected or inhabited with the supposed virus.


Such as this case with an Oceania working class man Phillip Rudd. A man who seemed to be happily married, Phillip went into work today on the 18 floor of his office building asked some co working buddies if they wanted to go out to eat at lunchtime to a Eastasian buffet, in which they all agreed to. Phillip is noted to have said that he could not wait, and that he was starving. Phillip Rudd worked quietly at his desk until 11:23 almost 30 minutes till his plans for lunch were to begin.


Phillip surviving coworkers noticed at 11:23 Phillip Rudd with a transparent halo around his head standing up and violently opening up his desk drawers. Mr. Rudd appeared to find a sandwich in his desk in which he took a bite and put it in his pocket. Most of Mr. Rudd’s fellow employees at this time started running and screaming and heading for the exits. The deceased James McNeal from Tech Support at this time told Mr. Rudd to please calm down, and as Mr. Rudd went over to his coworkers desk and opened up some drawers to find two 30 round clips of 5.56mm ball and tracer rounds. James McNeal went to tackle Mr. Rudd, but was easily kicked to the side where the heavy James McNeal flew a good eight feet into a near bye cubicle. Mr. Rudd then was sighted walking toward the office supply closet where he pulled out a fully automatic M245 machine gun, and began firing on all remaining visible coworkers. Mr. Rudd then shoots the security cameras in the building. It is unsure what happens for approximately 18 minutes until news helicopter spots Mr. Rudd shooting form the 20th floor window onto the street with a M40 sniper rifle. Police gathered around the building and take fire upon Mr. Rudd. Officer Ron Calloway reports as the news copter also shows that it seems Officer Calloway makes a direct hit in the center of Mr. Rudd’s face. Mr. Rudd disappears behind the wall for approximately 3.7 seconds where at this time he is believed to be fallen and assumed dead. Mr. Rudd then appear again shooting from the broken window with the M245 machine spraying wildly and hitting no one. Mr. Rudd is then shot for a second and final time.


Sam Nguyen (Satoshi Nguyen) and Calvin Oshi (Katsuhiro Oshi) sit through another boring high school physics class. Their teacher Mr. Walthau explains how often when things fall off tables there is two ways most things break. The teacher tries to liven the class up, by dropping a bunch of drinking glasses off his teacher’s desk. He shows them to the class demonstrating the two variations of how glasses break. “Drinking glasses break in segments of five or seven, blah, blah, blah, etc”. Sam could care less about physics today. Today his friend Calvin just asked him if he wanted to go to a haunted house this weekend. Attending this trip will be Lauren Gilbert, Samantha Hawkins, and other pretty and popular girls.


Sam had always felt somewhat of an outsider mainly because of his Eastasian heritage living in Oceania. That is why he and Calvin have become such good friends. At first he didn’t really like Calvin’s new girlfriend Michelle Williams, because Sam wasn’t getting to hang out with Calvin as much as he used to, and Calvin was becoming too good for “Dorky computer games”, however this new situation with the haunted house turned things around. Hopefully he thought he might find himself a girlfriend this coming weekend.

I was at the second universe on my list of destruction. I looked at it and found once again a place of nonsense, but this time there were actual organisms living there. The organism seemed happy as well. Looking inside I saw beings that looked like people and furniture and building everything seemed to be alive. Everything was moving, hopping around and flying. Sometimes things would run into each other and pass right through and sometimes they’d bounce off, or things would sink into the ground. Around this universe there seemed to be no actual planets, only planets cut in half. Things could fall off the sides of these half planets and into the stars, where it seemed they would still smile and bounce around.


Looking at this ridiculous but complex universe I had to ask myself who made this? Who the hell thought of this? These beings that appear to be real, are they really happy, do they think. Will they be just as happy dead, and why does Death want to destroy this place? I stood there and watched to see if there was any rhyme or reason to any of the organisms’ movements. They did seem to be interacting. I noticed one thing handed part of its body to another. I noticed these beings like running into each other and then look for something else to run into.


Deaths’ universe cloak then appeared from behind the universe I was looking into. His cloak rapped around me and I was able to see Death and also a group of eight of me. “This is as far as you’ve gotten? It’s not really a surprise, I’ve come to expect it from you” Death shrugged.


“Why don’t you kill it? You’re Death after all.” I asked


“I can’t, not like you can.” said Death. He entered the Universe and was killing people and buildings one by one by touching them. All of the other things bounced away in fear.”


Death popped out of the universe, “see for some reason I can interact with that. I make sense in there. Otherwise this universe would have been dead around a week ago your time. There is no reason to save this place, you must destroy these things now before they evolve, before these things get souls or have some functional reality.”


Another George stepped up to the universe and seemed to shrink as he entered. Soon the universe froze as once before but also seemed to turn white slowly, like giant nuke had gone off form the point the other George stuck his finger in. The George exited away from the universe and seemed to grow back to normal, and then Death with his Scythe slashed it in half. “They’re reality had a violent reaction to mine,” the other George said with a smirk.


I asked “Who made that universe?” to Death. Death replied probably some thing from a universe as equally as stupid. Most likely a creature who has nothing better to do than keep thinking of that universe enough to keep it alive.


I then came up with the notion and asked “So whatever I think of exists some where else?


Death said “If you think of it hard enough and continue to believe in it, it may exist depending on what you are?”


So I stood there and immediately thought of a near by universe that contained a laser gun. I reached into the universe and pulled it out. I saw a laser gun before me but it quickly faded.


Death said “You need to think harder. The laser gun didn’t hold up well in the reality of my cloak. Right now you’re wondering if you could think of a device that will lead you back to your wife and kids. Like so many of you have thought of before. Some of you are willing to kill each other over your family. You’ll learn later to Imagine such a device but right now you could not make it work. Its reality and science would not hold up. One of the other George’s tried and he found himself in the presence of a more fake wife and kids that he had made up in his mind and struggled with the fact of how unreal they were for days, before he finally left in tears.
