Alien Mind Control From Planet P
Chapter 14
By Gary LM Martin
Tom Faraday asked his protΓ©gΓ© Kate Johansen if she wanted to go on an educational outing with him. Kate squealed. Kate was
always
excited to be educated. Tom had educated her a lot in the bedroom, but also said that sometimes there were things to be learned while wearing clothes too. So Kate agreed to go. Kate always agreed to everything Tom asked her to do. That's what Tom said he liked so much about her. That, and the other thing.
They were now driving in an air car together. But Kate wondered about the silent young man in the back of the air car, wearing electrobinders. Who was he, and why had Tom brought him with them?
"Who is he?" Kate asked.
"His name is Benjamin," said Tom, smiling broadly.
She looked back at Benjamin. He looked very sad. His eyes were pleading with her for help.
"He doesn't look happy," said Kate.
"That's because he's not Infected," said Tom.
"Why are you bringing him with us?" said Kate.
"You'll see," said Tom.
"Where are we going?" she asked.
"Richmond Virginia," said Tom. "That's home to one of the very first Unity Towers on the planet."
"Unity Towers? What are those?"
"They are tall, thin spires, made of organic material," said Tom. "They transmit a low level EM field."
"EM?" said Kate.
"Don't let your pretty head worry about that," said Tom, as he allowed one of his hands to roam between her legs. Kate squealed, and Tom laughed. "Like I said, you have real potential."
"You really think so?" Kate asked. She jumped as Tom's hand moved in answer.
"Please let me go," Benjamin said suddenly.
"That's what we're doing," said Tom. "Once we get to Richmond, we'll let you go."
"Really?" said Benjamin.
"I'll undo those binders myself and open the car door for you. You can go wherever you like," said Tom.
"Thanks!" said Benjamin.
"You're so welcome," said Tom. He turned to Kate. "Do you think he's cute?"
Kate looked back at Benjamin. He looked so young! But in reality he was 18, just a year younger than her. He had dark eyes and handsome hair. "Yeah."
"Good," said Tom. That's one of the reasons why Tom had picked him.
As they got close to Richmond, the weather started to change. At first it was sunny, but then the fog started to roll in. The closer they got to Richmond, the thicker the fog got.
"There's the tower," said Tom, pointing in the distance. It looked very similar to the organic spire the Expedition had uncovered on Planet D.
"What does it do?"
"In a sense, it creates this fog," said Tom. "Now, don't open your windows, I don't want to spoil a big surprise for Benjamin!"
Very quickly they arrived in the outlying suburbs. The fog was really thick now. They parked outside a local community college. When they got out of the car, everything changed.
In an instant, Kate lost control of herself. She could see herself talking and moving, but had no control at all. Even after being Infected by
Us
, Kate could still control her body, but her motivations had been heavily influenced by
We
. What she was experiencing now was quite different. Her body was now fully controlled. She was just along for the ride.
The other thing she noticed is that she could hear Tom's voice in her head. She felt a sense of connection, that she was connected to all of
Us
in the area.
What's happening?
This is the last stage in our evolution
, Tom thought. His thoughts were clear in her mind.
You might call it total Groupthink. The EM tower permits Us to survive in the air. When we can flourish in the air, then we can all be connected with each other. Before, We were together apart. But here, We are together Us.
It's so beautiful
, Kate thought, experiencing the joys of being connected to everything and everyone around her.
Yes
, thought Tom.
Come
.
We want to show you something.
He opened up the rear car door. Benjamin took one breath of air and immediately went into convulsions. Then he grabbed his head and screamed.
"Contact has been made," he said, suddenly calm.
He is Infected
, Kate thought.
Yes. The particle around us are even more effective than the spores from the Air Love. This is the ultimate level we will all achieve, once we have built enough Unity Towers to blanket the planet.
Tom removed Benjamin's binders, and, true to his word, let him out of the car. But Benjamin didn't run.
Tom and Kate and Benjamin made their way into the high school. They did not walk of their own accord;
