  He almost wished he would meet up with the bunch of smart asses again on his way home. He was ready for them this time having topped off his fuel tank at Brad’s farm. Even though he had a tank full of fuel, he would probably do what they demanded.

  This time though, he would give them bastards the fickle finger of fate. A sign they so well deserved. He might even show those sons-a-bitches just what his old Betsy twin winged biplane could do that theirs could not do, knowing damn well he could outmaneuver them by doing flips, barrel rolls, and dives they couldn’t possibly do with their fancy flying machines. Nah, the day was just too damn nice, and he didn’t really need the aggravation or grief of running into them again.

  Old Stew could not help but notice flying home not far from Brad’s home there was a new perimeter fence he had never seen before down on the desert floor below. He was now flying within the surrounding restricted air space and looking down to see its many deserted outhouse-looking guard shacks dotting along the fence below. Seeing he had not had any military visitors come flying up at him like maniacs as before, he decided to follow this new fence for a while northwesterly instead of his usual path to the northeast.

  He noticed a large breached gated opening in the huge fence gates wide open with a new scratched out road leading directly north. He banked his twin-winged aircraft to the right, changing his flight path again, and followed the road leading towards the north. He had plenty of fuel on board for another hundred extra miles or more of flying, and the weather was just perfect for a little countryside joyriding and sightseeing to extend his pleasant ride this fine day while flying home.

  Turning the old biplane, he banked it softly right and followed the roadway. Old Stew spotted a short rounded flat-topped building sticking straight up out of the desert floor a couple of miles up the road. It looked half buried beneath the sand in the desert floor. Behind the round structure, lay another separate bunker looking like a half round open style garage closed in on one side of the circle with a couple of military Jeeps, two duce and a half military trucks, and a couple of other vehicles tucked away inside it.

  He veered his flight path away from the new structures thinking they may have had something to do with his encounter a few days earlier with the warring squadron of fighter planes. Not wanting to run into them again, nor get himself noticed by anyone below who might look up and detect him even though he did not see anyone roaming around the grounds outside or any movement of any vehicles below, he decided it was best to avoid them.

  He proceeded more northeasterly on a course back towards home and turned old Betsy towards the east. He discovered out of the corner of his left eye, a newly erected wind powered bladeless water well tower built further up the road from the buildings that he had just veered away from. It stood tall without a fan on its top in order to run the water pump below it. It looked as if someone had placed a big round black baseball or a big balloon on top the tower. This really got the best of his very inquisitive curiosity to boiling.

  A water well towered wind mill without a wind powered fan atop to run it, stood tall like a pyramid all alone among several smaller looking outer buildings in the desert he had never witnessed before on his numerous flights to his friend Brad’s house. They looked all newly built with tire tracks and bulldozer tracks still fresh in the sand up north in the bright early morning sun, out in the open desert like the fencing he had just noticed, and flown over.

  What the hell was going on down there, he wondered. His curiosity got the best of him for a second time in just a short period of only a few minutes or less. He veered his old bi-plane off course again towards the north northwest one more time to see what the 100-foot tall towered structure jetting up out the desert floor was all about a few miles up the road. He needed to get a grasp on what was going on down there, to take a good look, and see if he could figure out what it really was. Maybe it was the beginning of a new settlement way out in the desert of some kind.

  There was no sign of any cattle, bison, or even that of a stray horse roaming the immediate area of the desert below him that might be in need of such a fine looking watering well. These newly built structures got the best of his revolving imagination and subconscious. He had to see what someone was up to way out there in the middle of the uninhabited desert as he flew closer and closer to the structures and the tall tower up ahead of him, still wondering what it was all about.

  Four, Three, Two, One, DETONATION! An arc of light more brilliant than the sun of daylight flashed blindingly bright with the first splitting and fusion of atoms. The reaction in the bomb exploding made a large mushroom shaped funnel cloud roar instantly skyward from the nesting site. For many miles around, anyone watching could see the cloud rise high above the desert floor. The explosion sent a huge volume in red hot air rushing instantly outward from its epicenter. Immediately after exploding, it imploded. It pulled the air back into a vast vacuum, causing larger amounts of air to be sucked back to the point of fusion, and instantly sent it skyward. It sucked vast amounts of sand, gravel, and fragments of the structures the soldiers had previously assembled near the Egg’s nesting structure back with it. The several observers of the first nuclear bomb explosion were safely hidden down in the protective bombproof observatory. They watched the action from a safe distance away as the massive blast in fusion separation of atomic particles sent out a huge shock wave across the desert floor. The hot shockwave flattened the buildings of wood, concrete, and steel.

  General Carey, Roger, Charles, and their staff watched the detonation from the protected bunker several miles away. They carefully watched the reversed action in the blasts shockwave go out and then immediately reverse backwards towards its point of origin. The blast sucked the hot air back from across the area it had traveled too, and up into the atmosphere above the desert floor. It instantly contaminated the blast zone’s atmosphere high above the Earth with radioactive micro-molecular fragmented dust particles that would travel across the United States to New England in the next several days. The cloud of radioactive particles dropped radioactive dust all over the country and its inhabitants.

  This first blast caused the beginning of many cases of cancer to the skin, bones, and the blood supply of the people living in the United States. U. S. Officials from the government had no idea what the residual fallout from this atomic bomb blasts in pink particles would do to the many unsuspecting citizens across their country. The first explosion would cause years of sickness, grief, and birth defects. No one knew the full effect this bomb test and bombings abroad would cause to the vast population around the globe or to their own people. The ill effects caused by the blast would follow the experiment in atomic fusion into the next century and possibly into centuries to come after that, until it might someday annihilate the populous around the world. Newborn babies around the world would be born without limbs, while many would develop leukemia. A life of worldwide wretchedness would follow the population of the planet for a lifetime, and spread into their offspring as their children’s children had their children, and their children had theirs.

  CHAPTER NINE

  Bye Bye Biplane

  Old Stewart Jones never knew what hit him, the fusion in atoms hit him so fast. He and his biplane were instantly gone within a nanosecond of time, instantaneously vaporized when the Egg split its shell and hatched. Surely, old Stew felt no pain in going from dust to dust and ashes to ashes as it happened so fast.

  One to two seconds prior to the clock ticking down to zero, Dr. Charles and several others in the observatory thought they noticed a small twin-winged aircraft flying a hundred or more feet above the nesting tower that looked like a large dragonfly, or airplane. It was a mere second too close and too late for him or any of the others in the observatory to do anything about stopping the countdown even if it had been a plane. None of them at their monitoring stations had the necessary controls in front of them to deactivated and stop the procedure. They were watchi
ng the blast through a newly developed televised camera lens imagining system using sound waves to transport imagery though the air by radio wave frequency to a set of conversion tubes and onto a picture screen. Maybe it had been an ordinary housefly or other bug on the lens of the camera that made them all think it was an aircraft, or was it?

  Brad never heard from his old friend Stew ever again, but did feel the blast and shockwave that took his good friend’s life from him. It seemed Stew had just vanished from the face of the earth into the thin air of the planet. Dr. Charles had heard of the missing man and his old biplane, as did the others watching that day through the monitors. They as well as the others surmised that it must have been the missing man’s biplane they had all witnessed for a slit second’s time flying over the nest at the precise time of detonation.

  Dr. Charles felt guilty and confused with life after that. He and his friend Roger had helped develop such a destructive device that was so lethal to the planet’s inhabitants. He and the others who had been involved in the bomb’s fruition would fret daily in the back of their subconscious minds. Most everyone bottled up the deep emotion changing circumstances caused by the device until the day would come when they all would die of natural causes, they hoped.

  Some fretted continually every day about how many innocent Japanese lives the bomb would take to end the war. The sudden death of old Stew haunted the ones who had noticed him for a split second and then he was gone. Many who thought they were individually responsible for the great loss of lives, took their own lives by not being able to live with the thought that they were the ones responsible for the great loss in life. They all knew they were going straight to hell after death, and why prolong the howling agony of their continual revolving minds about it while still alive just waiting for their last agonizing day to come.

  The testing of the first atomic bomb in its nesting site went very well, beyond everybody’s wildest dreams or expectations. It was supposed to be the bomb that ended all wars, but it only stopped the Japanese and the Germans, ending the Second World War. The cold war between great powers of the world prevailed for many more years to come after that deadly time in history.

  CHAPTER TEN

  The Downfall of the Neutron Bomb

  In a new experimental laboratory located in Russia, not far from the city of Moscow, several scientific doctors were working hard on developing the newest in deadly wartime bombs ever made in peacetime, the neutron bomb.

  Dr. Ivan Scavonivich and his associate doctors were busy trying to work calmly while being rushed by their superiors for the speedy completion in the prototype of new living creatures, human beings, and animal annihilating warhead. It would be new to science, an electrical agent dispersing nuclear device. The neutron bomb would be the deadliest bomb the world would never forget for years to come.

  This new bomb was to be the most brilliant of all manmade bombs ever invented by modern day technology. The new bomb would kill all animal life within miles of its detonation, but would not destroy the integrity of any buildings or plant life surrounding its point of detonation. It would leave the surrounding area safe and usable, unlike the atomic bomb did by leaving the surrounding area demolished and unusable for many years due to radiation contamination. This very deadly bomb in its infancy stages was produced and made ready for some very greedy leaders who wanted to conquer vast areas of land for their own selfish reasons of power in wealth, as did Hitler, and other power seeking reasons.

  Work in the Russian laboratory on this new deadly device was proceeding quite well for the doctors in charge of its testing and their vast team of scientific associates. The work had gone so well in its development stage that it was time for this new weapons testing. Massive data files in all its phases in calculated theory resulted in mental debilitating testing and killing anguish. The Russian leaders had their scientist perform inhumane testing on many of the country’s prisoners and animals in cages that showed great results in its annihilation of living creatures.

  The new bomb held a significant imbalance with multiple effects for the large amounts in wild neutrons that they each could hold. Especially the bomb’s massive concentrated properties of neutron masses when used in large uncontrolled amounts. This new device proved very dangerous to even those handling these very insensitive imbalanced properties of nature.

  The scientists used extreme caution while handling the wild concentrated properties of nature’s unforgivable strength, considered more dangerous than the most toxic poison known to human. Extreme caution was never used properly in manufacturing this destructive animal tissue and life menacing neutralizing properties of life that they were making. The greedy men did not care about its consequences to their own scientists, for they just wanted these weapons available for their own use in their arsenal of mass life destruction. This would enable them in controlling the populous around the world, and they could get away with mass producing this new weapon in secrecy and having its use at their immediate disposal.

  This newly developed neutron-killing device consisted mostly of neutrons in immeasurable amounts of condensed concentration. Heavy water was reduced to its smallest size ever, then harnessed in capsules no bigger than a woman’s sewing thimble, capable of releasing their deadly force out into the earth’s atmosphere with the firing of a simple device no bigger than that of a pyrotechnic firecracker. The result of the small blast would cause devastation to life felt for miles around its detonation. These larger neutron elements the Russian scientists reduced down and condensed to impartial neutron particles. All these concentrated particles carried a reverse non-electrical charge, and were regarded by scientific minds around the world as the most dangerous of all unstable elements of materials known to humanity and to the animal kingdom.

  Similar to all other bombs of mass destruction, the reduced neutron devices needed handling with the greatest of care, for they could result in instant death to those handling them and to all other animal life forms in and around the area for several miles, if not more for they didn’t really know. The properties of them so highly unstable, no one truly knew for sure just what would happen when they are released into the atmosphere.

  Not one of the fearless greedy leaders in the Kremlin at the time wanted to be anywhere near the testing sites when they performed their testing. The destructive properties these new bombs were capable of causing if handled wrong, made the new Russian leaders extremely nervous.

  They wanted the new weaponry for their own military arsenal, but none wanted to be anywhere near or around the devices when being tested for many various reasons. They all knew the bizarre dangers the sudden release of these neutralizing neutrons were capable of causing, and did not understand the lasting effects these new devices would have on future living creatures. Not one of the cowards wanted to gamble an incident making them perish into the unconsciousness or death because of their own fears of its danger, or lack in knowledge about the new deadly device they all wanted mass-produced right away for their greedy use. With world control over the deadly device in hand, they figured Russia would become the world’s number one super power, able to control everyone around the globe like puppets on a string.

  In the United States, a similar device in its arsenal protection plan was under way. In an experimental laboratory located in Lexington, Massachusetts, they worked on developing a similar prototype of the deadly Neutron bomb with safety in mind.

  Dr. Norman Andrews, Prof. Jeffrey Jefferson, and their colleagues in science were busy in the final stages of putting together their quality control and final touches on their very own neutron bomb. This weapon was very similar to the one their Russian counterparts were hurriedly building, but with a great deal more caution placed into their new device of weaponry. They were using more modern measure of reliable safety devices affixed to them than were their counterpart Russians.

  The Americans had been carefully studying the long term effects these dead
ly neutron bombs could have on innocent victims outside the ramification of its destructive point of impact, along with what long term effects might have on Mother Nature herself. These scientists wanted to know more about the reproduction of wildlife animals and other creatures living in the area of a blast. They meticulously preplanned and re-planned what to put into place prior to a detonation of such a deadly device.

  No one wanted to affect the precious balance of Mother Nature’s earth surrounding the testing sight. This category of bomb could pose a more deadly outcome on the entire planet than the atomic bomb. This particular deadly bomb needed a more suitable assembly in the number of neutrons correlated in it, and the explosive properties in its payload properly measured out so not to increase its magnitude of life taking destruction worldwide.

  With the wrong and incorrect mixture of deadly elements in its protonic payload wrongly subtracted and an incorrect amount of electrons improperly balanced in the original formulated in its making, the bomb could be extremely dangerous to everyone. Great adverse effects could result with instant grief and devastation of an entire population around the globe with drastic outcomes.

  Massive power losses might occur worldwide around the globe resulting from the improper influx and imbalance of the earth’s magnetic fields with severe consequences resulting in a true imbalance of gravity with great measures of imbalance for all living creatures. It could cause great black outs similar to large solar flare ups in space caused when there are solar storms on the face of the sun, but possibly more devastating to the earth, if the blast was uncontrollable by some simple means.
