CHAPTER NINE – ACCEPTANCE
To a Whisp, time was just a measure. Dwarg had spent about ten human years inside Robert Kellor. During that period, Dwarg had studied the internal make-up of Robert’s being. It was a difficult learning time because Dwarg was now in fact, a physical “thing” and could not do some of the things that a Whisp within the Aura could do – conversely, he could do things not possible for a Whisp. Of course, being physical meant that he was technically not a Whisp and could not relay information back to the Whisps – further, he now saw himself as a he rather than an it. Dwarg was sure that Slig must be aware of what was happening, because of his obvious absence from the Aura – perhaps Slig was actually following him in his endeavours – he still had not worked out a way to contact him.
Dwarg had the capability of reducing his size, (not that he knew what size he should be) to such an extent that he could enter an atom, which he did regularly. By reading the knowledge within Robert Kellor’s brain, Dwarg learnt that Humans had determined that the atom was the basis of all things physical, of all material things, of liquids, solids, gasses and any matter living or dead. They thought they knew everything about the atom, and of its composition. However they were yet to discover the huge and wonderful world within an atom. If, as the Humans thought, the atom was the building block of all things possible, how come Dwarg was here and now, and physical? He was certainly not “constructed” of atoms at all. In this paradox, Dwarg determined that hereby was the key to the inability of a Whisp to touch the physical world. Their Aura and their existence lay in the spaces between atoms within the Earth and its atmosphere.
Within Robert Kellor, Dwarg had established a network between the atoms of his being, and was able to control and direct the molecules, cells and electrical activity keeping the Human alive. After Robert returned to Earth from space, his heart began to deteriorate rapidly and Dwarg, now being physical, was able to wrap himself around this failing organ. He was also able to manipulate the Human’s cells into such a structure that ensured the continued and regular pumping of blood throughout the body. Dwarg could not afford to let the Human die as he had no indication of the effect upon himself residing within a dying cell, so it was in his interest to keep Robert alive – not only alive, but healthy.
One thing Dwarg was not able to do, was to communicate with Robert. Robert was strong willed and somehow kept up a block to any attempt to get through to his thoughts or awareness – it was a frustrating barrier. Sometimes Dwarg would try through Roberts’s dreams, and on a number of occasions, leave “messages” after Robert drank alcohol.
One day Robert was doing some home-improvements when a wooden beam fell onto his head, rendering him unconscious. Dwarg immediately took control of the body cells and ensured that the head injury was healed almost instantly. He also took this opportunity to introduce himself as an entity in Robert’s brain and asked him to open his mind for better contact between them – Dwarg explained who he was and that he was the reason for Robert’s good health and being - it wasn’t just good luck.
Later, Robert was badly injured in a horrific vehicle accident.
His deep and critical wounds healed completely, minutes before the paramedics arrived on the scene, yet his wife died upon impact.
Given the emotional state of Robert’s mind at the time of his wife’s death, Dwarg again took the opportunity to communicate his presence there and then – to no avail. These attempts however did, and at the very least, leave a feint imprint on his memory. Robert never concentrated or tried to explore this imprint, in fact he greatly feared that he might be at the edge of succumbing to Alzheimer’s, schizophrenia or even encephalitis. That fear ensured that he would not seek medical advice – Aggie was his world now, and that was where he would focus all things.
It was only when Robert’s disposition, depression and thoughts of suicide at seeing his daughter dying slowly, that Dwarg was able to get through to him – Robert had hit rock bottom and opened his mind – he had nothing else to lose – Dwarg had everything to lose. He filled Robert’s thoughts with what had happened, where and when they met, things in Robert’s past and things that only Robert would have known about. Robert was forlorn and frustrated and would accept anything, even if that anything was totally and utterly ludicrous. Strangely, the things that Dwarg communicated, actually made some sense – or maybe he was now completely insane. Anyway he decided that he would even accept the fantastic, the improbable, and if not impossible, proposition posed by Dwarg; an offer of exchange of lives - Robert for Aggie. Robert asked Dwarg for some sort of sign to prove his existence – so Dwarg told him to reach over and touch Aggie. After holding her hand for a few minutes, Robert saw the colour come back into Aggie’s face, the machines seemed to “calm down” with their urgent noises and readings and Robert could see an immediate improvement in Aggie. Robert was convinced.
Dwarg explained that for Aggie to fully recover he would have to leave Robert and enter her body; this would lead to Robert’s death. Robert was anxious to have this happen immediately. He also accepted Dwarg’s generous offer of leaving a personal message with his daughter. Robert did not have to actually speak his mind, yet somehow he put forward his story, his feelings, hopes and wishes to Aggie. This was the happiest yet saddest moment in his life and he was ecstatic at being able to give something to enable her to live. Robert implored Aggie to be happy for him and not to mourn his passing.
Dwarg had promised Robert that he would take good care of Aggie, would not be a controller or lead her to any evil or harm. Further, Dwarg would carry with him, a history of Robert’s memories extracted from certain brain cells along with atoms, impulses and cells from his DNA; this meant that Aggie would have access and perhaps guidance if and when she may have a use for them.
All this being done, Robert bent over to kiss Aggie for the last time and accepted death with relief and gratitude.
Dwarg entered Aggie within a cell in one of Robert’s teardrops. He immediately fluxed to her brain area and began communication with her. She was in a coma and had no barrier to block any incoming information from Dwarg and the messages from her father.
Dwarg set about altering, rearranging and redirecting the cancerous cells in Aggie’s body, this happened in a number of minutes and Dwarg ensured that her tissues, muscles, bones and organs were functioning and healthy. This was only possible because he was a physical entity – no Whisp within the Aura could do anything like this. Aggie was very receptive to all the explanations, data and seemingly difficult information given to her. Dwarg then asked her to wake up and take one last look at her father before he died – Aggie opened her eyes just in time to see Robert sitting down on the chair beside her bed – he had a smile on his face and looked at peace. She now knew all and had accepted Dwarg.
For the next hour they exchanged stories, Dwarg explained as best he could about the existence of Whisps and how Humans were causing Swirl Chaos by punching machines through the Aura. He asked Aggie to help him find a solution. Aggie argued that she was only a little girl, with no parents, no power or position – how could she possible help him? Dwarg explained that they would both work it out - he was in no hurry. Aggie thought deeply about what had happened and knew (although still at the tender age of ten) that she had now found a meaningful purpose in life.
Dwarg in turn, would let Aggie go about her life, yet ever looking for ways and means of fulfilling his quest – things would be easier for him now that he had a willing host and time was no real consideration.
