(Part 7 - Finale)

Jimmy's mouth hung wide open... These two beings were so different, but something was a bit similar.

"Space Crickets... They look like Bugs from Space!" Jimmy spoke softly to himself as much as to Prof. Sandra.

Sandra: "Yes, Jimmy. I think so too. And like Pinocchio did in the cartoon movie you watched last night, I'm asking you

to try to talk to them, like Pinocchio did to Jiminy Cricket. Will you try for me... Please?" she pleaded with the Boy now.

"Alright... Since you asked me, and have been so nice to me... You and Sgt. Sheila, and the rest. I will try my best. Yes."

Jimmy then had a sudden and far-off look on his face... Like he was in a near dream state. In some ways, his mind was!

The Boy now saw images in his hidden vision... Sights of another planet. Where the planet was, he couldn't even guess at.

A planet all green, and with cities of glass or crystal-like tall buildings reaching high into the sky. Not like those in NY City,

which Jimmy had seen photos of (as on the TV, during '9/11'). No, these buildings were so elegant to even describe at all.

He then saw small fleets of ships, and one small craft leaving a mothership out near a ringed planet (maybe Saturn?)

One of the creatures (space crickets) then seemed to nod in Jimmy's direction... Then it sent him a 'mind-thought'.

A simple message, and why the adult scientists could not guess at it was silly to Jimmy now: "Let us... go Home!"

Jimmy nodded to the creature that he 'got' the message. Then Jimmy got another message, meant for him alone.

Very soon, this first session ended. Jimmy was taken back to his guest room. The only thing he told Sandra was

the message about the two beings wanting to go back to their home world. The later part he hid deep 'within'.

That very night... Just before his usual 9 PM bedtime... Jimmy asked for some vanilla ice cream. Sgt. Sheila complied.

Jimmy had put into her mind a subconscious thought: 'Before I get the ice cream, I will turn off all the main power circuits.'

The Boy had attuned his mind to hers so easily, after having spent so much time with Sheila, that for him it was easy as pie.

About five minutes later... Alarms rang out... A Power Outage of some kind... The back-ups then failed. Only some red

safety lighting here and there remained 'On'. Those were battery powered on a separate circuit from all of the main ones.

Outside the base, a lightning storm descended from the sky where there had been none a minute before... The Mothership!

As he stayed inside his bed, there in his room, Jimmy received one last telepathic message from the Space Crickets...

"Thank-You, young kind Human... Thank-You!" In another moment, the Mothership with the two 'crickets' disappeared.

No sign on any base radar from nearby, or from any satellites. Into another realm the friendly aliens had hopped off into.

"Good-Bye, my new Friends... and Be Happy!" was Jimmy's last thoughts here.

Jimmy was returned Home to his aunt (his 'Mom') the very next day!
