Tin Universe Monthly #16b 2014 Memorial Day Special Read online

Bag, you have a young man playing games inside his head. He is bidding on chances to continue down these pathways of life while feeling his heart slowly daily with pains from his past.

  A moment of a wasted youth, wasted education, wasted jobs, and now wasted day to day.

  Then time skips and you get a young woman reading and then another and another.

  This ferret has gathered together quite the collection but each collection ends at a few random moments because any more would burst and create an all new universe.

  A young woman slept a fever dream as a piece of time passed through her on its way to a gathering as part of a collected work.

  Sometimes random creates the most beautiful magpie.

  Sometimes chaos can weave lines that shine so vivid.

  Other times randomness and chaos are brutal to the end of what it creates.

  Every sentient species has a secret joy in thinking they are the most creative harbingers of death but each and every one cowers in corners to what the natural order of things can do.

  One of these slices of time retells a story the young woman’s people passed down through generations but she never paid much attention to the stories her grandmother told her as she was growing up.

  She would now.

  Humans are so stupid when they are young.

  Survival alone is a miracle.

  Sierra Antine has been pushed into a destiny not planned for her.

  Her grandmother smelled anyways.

  It was so hard to sit beside her when she got on a roll about “their people.”

  This story goes that The Earth Maker was there with The Spiders Of Time on the day of the creation of the universe. And after weaving the universe The Spiders asked The Earth Maker to help them create a home world for their worship point to peak, for all of creation to peak.

  On the first day, day was created and so was night.

  Fair warning as with a lot of creation myths this one will be equal parts poetry, cool, and total bullshit.

  The beginning of the universe was a demented creation process without a start of singing birds and sunrises. This was a place where demons were tricked and bargained into forming beasts. A time when Angels were birthed and shown the way to a passageway to Heaven that they as slaves will never be able to walk through.

  Day and night came from a splintering that was the only way of making sure this planet couldn’t reside just in either darkness or light. There are planets like that but they are the most orthodox of places.

  Water and all living things on the planet gained life from second piled upon second. Men, women, the others came from soft clay to unseeable micro life forms to evolve into the rulers and wasters.

  The sight of humanities future was seen, the future of the whole universe, after one of The Spider Gods whispered in an ear of The Earth Maker and thus was created the seas with his tears.

  There is sadness in every birth, not because of joy, but because seeing into the future only gives you the vision that only death can follow birth of any kind.

  Whether these events I wrote of actually happen doesn’t matter in the lease..lease?...least??

  Like most stories of faith, because the power of the story had made it a part of history and more importantly a part of how people see the world and live within it, truth has long gone out the window.

  Any moment plucked out of time is powerful but moments like these have an even greater weight to them. For a being to have this moment of time pass through them normally would do damage beyond mutilation and destruction but a great poison can be a strength developed.

  And every moment of time is not created equally with the difference described as being between having someone ingest water and drinking down a nice beaker of acid.

  For a human body to experience this type of thing, this type of a time moment, it’s like having your own personal history ripped apart piece by piece so you can better understand it by throwing in bits of others peoples history as an alphabet code.

  If people truly understood the powers behind every day events, every day pains, and their plans and manipulations for humanity everyone would probably be an uptight self-righteous atheist cursing the skies.

  Like me.

  The best of us are agnostic and just say fuck it, better things to do, and get on with our lives, even in the face of black spots in our eyes.

  The battle within that young woman wasn’t just one of life and death but one of trying to keep herself from being ripped from history itself. Destiny says here and sorry if you can’t handle it but here you go anyways.

  Lucky this night hasn’t found Sierra alone. Standing by her bed is The Black Friar. He’s a supernatural being from Nottinghamshire who dresses like a British Johnny Cash punk and keeps his promises no matter what he has to do.

  For more on him check back issues of this series.

  Promises and debts are his way of life. The Black Friar pulled up his hoodie for dramatic effect as he sprinkled a mixture of dragon piss and his own blood over Sierra as she slept but the mixture never touched her as instead it just formed into a ball and floated over her chest.

  The ball went up and down as Sierra breathed in and out perfectly in sync.

  ‘Well, well, aren’t you a special one. You just might be the one who has to make the choice,’ Black Friar.

  On this day The Shaman Of The Earth Maker is reborn to be among the number of possible successors to the duties of The Pledge.

  That or there will just be one more powerful being out there creating and tackling drama.

  Either way things just got a whole lot more interesting in California and that state is pretty damn interesting. Not saying it’s a great place, not saying it’s not a great place, but it has always been interesting place, and now even more so.

  BREAKING NEWS: Remains of three missing New Hampshire policemen found in ashes of soup kitchen…

  BREAKING NEWS: Teen who displayed Beyond Human Rights artwork at school exhibition was dragged out of school event by government agents for questioning…
