Chapter 61-Debra and me

  I was in the lecture room listening to a potential student Guardian giving a talk on why he wants to be a Student-Guardian. He was in the dream state. In fact we were all on the astral plane. As you already know, as Student-Guardians we can learn and function in the dream worlds, of course, he wouldn’t know about this learning exercise when he woke up. So you say, what is the point then? The point is, it is still important to have these experiences on the inner planes. As I was listening I noticed I could now receive messages from some outside source.’ I looked at Sionn who was standing nearby. He was looking at me with his usual knowing look. I have been able to receive messages from Sionn since I started my career as a Guardian, but these messages are different.

  They were from someone else! I know you students might think it is Mannus but no. After the lecture I was sat in the restroom alone trying to fathom out what the messages were trying to tell me when Sionn came into the room.

  'What do the messages say?’ He said.

  ‘They just tell me to go to some locations.’

  ‘Good,’ he said. ‘You are starting to access the Guardian-Network; you are also the only Guardian of your short experience to do so!’

  ‘What?’ I said!

  ‘You are in constant contact with Debra who is now becoming more powerful by the minute.’

  ‘How can that be?’ I said, ‘Did you know this would happen?’

  No, but we soon found that things would alter quite drastically.’

  ‘So all this time you have been monitoring me?’

  ‘Yes, but we do anyway, the important thing is this situation could now become a very useful tool for us.’

  ‘I'm glad, and I understand that you mean no insult by that.’ I said.

  ‘Yes, I know I am not the most sensitive soul when it comes to feelings.’

  ‘What happens now then?’

  ‘Just exactly what do the messages say?’ Sionn asked.

  ‘Can’t you access these messages from Debra,’ I said.

  ‘No.’ Sionn replied.

  ‘All I got was to go to several places.’

  ‘I want you to make a special effort to center your mind before I tell you the next part of this message’ Sionn said.

  ‘Now, Dan, Please meditate with me to the higher regions where I will give you extra mental exercises to control your mind.’

  ‘No!’ Debra shouted!

  I was a little shocked, to once again have Debra standing next to me looking angry! I knew she wasn’t to be messed with like this; I also knew it was my own mind that was the key to controlling her.

  Sionn said, ‘Everything is under control Debra.’

  Debra looked at me. I could now access her more easily just by looking into her eyes if she happened to be in the body form. Don’t forget, we are still on the astral plane; we still have a physical looking body, as you know.

  Debra said, ‘I won’t allow you to interfere with my Dan.’

  Sionn said, ‘It’s alright, Debra, we won’t hurt Dan. You can be assured that he will still be the same.’

  ‘I don’t care. You are not taking him to any higher regions without me!’

  Debra then disappeared.

  ‘Good, Dan, I can feel that you now have control. You will have to be aware that Debra is with you at all times, but for some unknown reason she has chosen you to be her companion for life. We did all we could to get her to become her usual self after the last adventure but to no avail. It seemed to start when you referred to her as a person.’

  ‘I don’t know if Reeas will approve.’ I said.’

  ‘Reeas has accepted it.’

  ‘OK, I said, ‘I can cope as long as I have Reeas with me.’

  ‘Yes, you will, but there may be times when you will not be able to be together.’

  ‘I hope not.’ I said.

  ‘You know you might have to go somewhere, or do something, that requires just your expertise, shall we say.’

  ‘Yes,’ I said.

  ‘Good, now please concentrate on your inner self.’

  I sat down in the lotus position as usual. I was astounded to see Debra on the inner screen of my mind sitting in the same position! She was her usual self who was very lovely but every few seconds she would change into the body of Mannus but would still have her own head! After a time, I don’t know how long, I came out of meditation. Sionn asked me what had happened. I asked him why he hadn’t been able to be there, he said he couldn’t access my mind as Debra wouldn’t let him!

  ‘Really,’ I said.

  ‘That is why you will now be a useful asset to us. If we can’t access your mind and consciousness then any agents won’t be able to either; but you will be able to access their network, we hope, now please try to access the inner screen while you are standing up.’

  ‘What?’

  ‘Yes, you can now access Debra while you are going about your everyday business.’

  ‘How do you know?’

  ‘It stands to reason; Debra is now part of you, so all you have to do is realize.’

  ‘Yes, but she was part of me before.’

  ‘Yes, she was, but now she is more in-tune with you!’

  Sure enough, when I closed my eyes, there was Debra.

  ‘What does this mean to you, Dan?’ Sionn said.

  ‘Well, as long as I can be alone when I need some private time.’

  ‘Yes, you should be able to control her now.’ Sionn knew I was worried.

  ‘Please relax,’ he said, ‘Mannus has confirmed to us that Debra will be under control as long as you are in control.’

  Wow! That really is something, I thought, I now have the most powerful tool, weapon, machine asset, I won’t say robot, I thought. ‘No, don’t’ Debra said.

  OK Students: Please feel free to contribute to this ongoing training session. In fact, the whole of my life has become a training session I suppose, I really don’t mind as long as it helps the Guardians to do their job. Sionn was now looking at me with his all-knowing stare. I knew he had something important to say.

  ‘What is it?’ I said.

  Sionn said, ‘You know that you are now invulnerable, Dan, will you please wait in the other room.’

  A few minutes later Reeas came in followed by Sionn.

  ‘I know I have to keep control at all times.’ I said.

  ‘Dan, all I can say is Debra has now gained power more than she was ever expected to. We can’t understand the reason why she has suddenly boosted her knowledge. It is as though she has found a way to access the light book which we know is impossible!

  ‘Could it be that this is something to do with the agents of Kallo?’ I said.

  ‘All our information says no. But anything is possible.’

  Now, I was more worried. Reeas was now looking at me with a concerned expression.

  ‘What is it?’ I said.’ Sionn said, ‘We want you to go on a special mission.’

  ‘Does that include you Reeas.’ I said. ‘I mean, do you want me to go alone?’

  She looked at Sionn. ‘You don’t need anyone to help you now, Dan.’

  ‘What do you mean?’ I said.

  ‘Debra will be able to do everything.’

  ‘Never mind, Debra,’ I said, ‘I want to know if Reeas wants me to go alone.’

  ‘Of course not!’ she said.

  ‘Then why have I got to go alone?’

  ‘You will not be alone, said Sionn. Debra will be there.’ I started to get angry. Suddenly Debra was there!

  ‘Don’t worry, Dan,’ she said, ‘I will take care of you.’ I at once knew that I myself had brought on this last little episode with Debra, and of course, Sionn and Reeas knew it also.

  ‘OK, I get it.’ I said.’

  Sionn said, ‘Debra will be you, and any other form you happen to take on?’

  ‘Yes, I realize that.’ I said.

  ‘And you know also, that you won’t even need a
light-suit.’

  ‘Yes, I know that also.’

  ‘Debra will be your defense, and everything else that you require.’

  ‘Yes, I figured that out also.’

  ‘Well, we tried to get Debra to cooperate and let the rest of the Guardians have the same protection, but she adamantly refuses. This means that you alone will be unique in the Guardian-Network.’

  ‘Maybe I could try and communicate with her in the higher regions again?’

  ‘No, Dan. We already tried and failed, she is very protective of you, so please don’t make any waves at this time, let’s just sail on. Just be aware that you will have to be in control at all times. Can you please join us for updates in the briefing room?’

  I was now starting to worry a little over Sionn’s talk.

  In the briefing room I could now just rest. I didn’t even need to pay attention. I knew Debra was taking it all in, I felt a little surplus-to-requirements.’

  ‘Don’t worry, Dan, I’m here. I can do everything for you.’ Now I was worried. I could see Sionn looking at me every now and again. I knew if Sionn was edgy, then things were not good. At this time my student friends, you should know I didn’t really understand the significance of the situation.

  I could see people in the briefing room looking at me more and more! I didn’t realize for a few minutes that I was changing shape from myself to Debra, every few seconds! Debra was the most powerful thing in the Multiverse, and I was now starting to worry, big-time.

  You will have to forgive me if I seem a bit edgy, but you also know the reason why. I was reminded of a film I saw as a child in my last lifetime (Forbidden Planet) about a planet which was destroyed by its highly advanced population who forgot that they had a subconscious mind.

  This subconscious invisible-monster would in time, kill all the people. Now I had a monster of my own! Now, students please excuse me while I upload everything to do with this next mission.
