Chapter Fifty-Six
Phase 2
The only thing a clock could measure would be an anticipatory
vibration of the second hand, more potential even than movement, and then it
would be the appointed time for Phase 2.
Only two beings even had an inkling about Phase 2, and they were playing
it close to the vest. Not even Nemo, the
world’s smartest mammal, knew about its existence, let alone Phase 3. A secret conspiracy hidden in a plot to
takeover the world, and no one suspected but a mysterious speedster known only
as the Faster-Than-Light Assassin. The
only one who knew for sure, though, didn’t even exist at the time, except in
the most transcendental sense, or perhaps in the penumbra. As usual, I was completely in the dark.
Phase 2 was set to begin at 07:16:07:34 on October 19,
2022. Set your alarms.
