It was a harsh and windless morning. The mist gripped tenaciously at the strobe streetlights. It was as if the fog had attempted to dim the lights illuminating the street. I would have woken before the first peak of sunlight and ridden my bike about the exclusive neighborhood. Occasionally I would see a young woman who I thought to be around my age, wearing a sporty,blue hooded jacket, often seen walking a black, lean , long legged dog. I never knew her name, most likely because I never asked and I never cared to know. It was rather odd for her to be wearing a hooded jacket looking back since it never rained. Perhaps she wore it to protect herself from the chill and the damp atmosphere. I never questioned the order of things. I had a morning ritual there was certainly nothing wrong about that. Routine is not a sign of evil, it was a sign of normalcy and structure. I liked the bit about structure. Structure plus Schedule equals security. Perhaps whoever was responsible for tampering with my memories and reprogramming my brain on a daily basis intended me to have a sense of security. It was a false security but nonetheless they used it to their advantage. They used this to numb my senses so I would not suspect anything off.
If I had a routine it would keep me from detecting anything funny going on.
It was bit like a lullulby only for the brain. Yes my brain was alive but it was in a unconscious state, sort of half asleep and half awake. No, I am not a robot nor do i have any alien tech embedded beneath my skin. Alien implants were not necessary for my confinement. Micro chipping is a tricky buisness. Some micro chips are not always durable and even if they are, they have to be removed every couple of years in order to be updated.
It's too much of a hassle to put up with.
This secret meeting buisness with Mr. Mosero troubled me. It excited me but at the same time it ate away at my nerves like crazy. I, mean hearing terrifying voices and a invisible choir and a whole orchestra was weird enough but now there was another man pursuing me besides Gull. Yes, I had another man that interfered during my musically delusional episodes.
The first message came to me on that unforgiving, chilly morning.
He was the only vision that came with a face.
"Hello. Elloo! Is this thingamajig on? Ah...here we are..Perfect! If you are receiving this message which I assume you are then I've done something right. Besides that I have a important news flash to present to you. If you think this life you're living is perfect, it's far from it. It's not what it seems, nothing is ever what it seems. Underneath all this perfection stuff...it's all quite ugly. I know you don't see it now but all that ugliness is hiding from you. You may not see the danger but I know you can feel it. It keeps playing back in your head. You've probably already gotten other weird messages besides mine. I'm sorry you didn't hear from me any sooner. I should have been the first to warn you. These weird messages besides my own are warnings. These warnings may present themselves differently to each individual. It just depends on the person and the level of intelligence and excetre ,excetre . Some experience earthquakes only they themselves can feel, some hear voices, others can actually hear music singing out those warnings.
Let me guess, you hear yours put to music right? All the smart one's tend to hear music. I mean those of higher intelligence usually hear music. The less intelligent one's just experience nausea or have this sensation of falling or being shaken violently by some unseen force. You're probably wondering what I'm leading this all to. First before I get straight to the point, I'm going to tell you, you are special Savanna. You are unique and you're anything but normal. Normal is boring, believe me, I've tried and it was terrible. It's absolutely rotten being normal. So I make it my business to stand out and be bold...but that's beside the point. The reason I'm here inside your head, speaking to you in this weird telepathic way is to to tell, I'm coming for you. I don't know how I will but i have every confidence that I will find a way to get to you. I know that's probably not in the least bit comforting to you right now since you most likely think I'm absolutely bonkers. I'll admit, I am bit mad but that's what comes of being stuck alone in a box for thousands of years. Wouldn't be your cup of tea but you could always come along just to keep me company...I mean that is if you want to. Sorry that came out a bit weird. You know..awkward. Oh I'm sorry...I forgot my brain for a moment...I'm always losing it. Before I tune out... I'm the Doctor and it looks like you are desperately in need of one. I'm a Doctor of all trade actually and so that's why everyone calls me the Doctor.
Yes, I know, i know that is kind of weird. Well i am weird, so it's best you get used to it. Everyone dose eventually. Names are so overrated anyway. Nobody uses the name given to them sixty percent of the time anyhow. Everyone changes, even I change but my name still remains the same, a complete mystery.
So just the Doctor will do when we meet up. Please be careful Savanna. I will contact you again, if I can figure out this time loop buisness."
Another message did come.
"Hello Savanna! I love saying that! I mean it's the first tiem I've said it...but still I love the sound of it. It just kind of rolls off the tongue. Savanna, it's a savy name. Savanna the savy... Savy Savanna. I think that suits you. I'll have to remember that one the next time we meet. Wait how can their be a next time when there hasn't even been a first time? Never mind. Focus. Let's focus. Sooo... how is the memory? Your Memory is probably a bit unstable at the moment... that is to be expected because you are presently in a time loop. Time loops often interfere with the hippocampus...they effect your memory and how your brain processes memory. Haven't you noticed how everyday feels like it's run together?
I mean when the last time it rained?
The weather never changes and there is a reason for it. Every day is exactly the same. Not precisely every day but you just happen to be living the same day over and over again. If you find any inconsistencies, any at all, remember them, hold onto them, store them away in your brain. Remember like you're life depended on it. I want everyday for you to do something different...anything...just make sure you do it differently. Be weird. Be bold. Be random. Just shake it up, switch it up and be daring about it. Your choices may disrupt the time flow and send the loop out of whack. Before you disrupt anything in your little world, investigate, uncover as much as you can and most importantly uncover the truth. I don't know quite whatp kind of danger you are in, I'm not even sure what threatens your small,strange society. I do know however that you are important and you are the only one capable of discovering the truth. You may not remember but before you came here you sent me a urgent message, a distress signal if you will. Since you are stuck within a actual time loop, it is hard to say exactly when you sent the message. It could have been ten minutes ago, ten months, even ten years. Who knows? The important thing is, I'm responding to your urgent call.
Something or someone has been tampering with your memories and with memories of everyone else. I want to know exactly who created this time loop and exactly why they created it in the first place. I wish I could be of more help to you Savanna but right now you're my only way of getting in. This particular time loop is so immensely effective that it is functioning as a force field around your world. Nothing comes in and nothing comes out. Yet we have to assume something must have entered through at some point or else you wouldn't be there stuck in Disney land or wherever you are.
Have you ever been to Disneyland Savanna? It's a wonderful place. Splendid little area. Lot's a people. Tons of people. I mean when I say people I mean it is absolutely packed. There's fried food, pancakes with the... mouse ears on them and they have these swirly cinnamon stick things but that can wait. For now you are my ticket to get through and I doubt if they'll be much of a line. If you you could disrupt the time flow for just a moment then posssibly I could enter your world. It just takes a moment and then I'm in. There is a slight probability that the time flow disruption may cause a ripple in the universe. Ripples aren't usually that serious but big ripples can tear right through the universe. I've seen it before. Cracks in the wall, strange creatures making appearances and a light begins seaping through those cracks. Then the evil comes leaking out with it. Evil that was never meant to have existed. Evil that was intended to be locked up for all eternity. I'm sorry, I don't mean to frighten you but when you get to live as long as I have, you see alot of ugliness and evil. You see the worst of the universe. You see the greatest of foes and best of your friends fall sometimes even all on the same day. There is beauty...great beauty Savanna. It's only hiding, waiting for just the right person to find it. Remember the beautiful. Remember who you are Savanna. Maybe then you can escape".
