turns to Dr Scott for help, and in turn Dr Scot decides to use Brads powers for
his own end...lets see what happens in
THE LATHE OF DENTON ( aka "Dont Dream it, BE it", alternate title
courtesy of Gene Chiovari :) ) by Bill Brennan
Dr Everette Von Scott sat at his desk and looked at the young man across
from him. His file said the mans name was Brad Majors,a local denton resident,
and that he was suffering from probable delusions: it seems that he was under
the impression that when he dreamed, his dreams reshaped reality into whatever
he happend to be dreaming!
" Unt why does no one else seem to notice that " reality" has taken a
change?" asked Dr Scott.
" Because everyone memories but mine are ALSO changed, Dr Scott! So everyone
thinks that th3 change is how its always been!" cried the poor afflicted man
with the coke bottle glasses.
"Can you give me an example?" asked the Dr.
Brad sighed and said.,
"Yes. Remember when the World Trade center was attcaked by those Saudi
terrorists on 9-11?"
"No. The World Trade Center in New York City is still there, Brad! And asd
far as " Saudi terrorists", well, there hasnt been a Saudi Arabia since the
area was wiped out in the Arab-Isreali war of 1978." Dr Scott laughed at the
idea.
" Thats what I mean,you have no idea what really happened until my dreams
changed everything because I dreamed that the attacks never happened " Brad
said and closed his eyes in frustration.
Dr Scott saw that Brad was sincere, and decided that his delusion was more
deep rooted than he first assumed.
"Brad, I have an idea. Let me give you a hypnotic suggestion. You will dream
what I tell you to dream, only you will also dream that I am not effected by
this " change" you say happens. that way I can tell you if you are delusion or,
Dr Scott smiled inside " if you really ARE changing the world with some God
Like power. Agreed?"
Brad agreed, and Dr Scott gave him a mild hyponotic. Brad closed his eyes and
Dr Scott said,
" Brad, Denton is a small town. I want you to dream that its a bit bigger: a
center of commerce and undustry and economy. You will have this dream when I
say the word " begin". ready?"
" Rrrrrrrready," said hye sleepy mans voice.
"BEGIN".
Dr Scott watched as Brads eyes closed more, then saw the rapid eye movement
that indicated that dream-sleep was close... and BAM! It all happened at once
and Dr Scott was almost in shock: the view from his window had changed! The
small buildings were replaced with sky scapers, polluted slky was where clear
air once was, the towns people now looked oike hip hop gangsters, people sold
drugs and prostituted themselves right in front of his office, the sounds of
car horns and taxi caps and the smell of smoke and urine filled the air...
But he was right! BRAD WAS RIGHT!!! He DID have this amazing power!!!!!
" So you belive me now?" asked Brad when Dr Scott whoke him up.
" Yes, yes I do," said the Dr. his hands were shaking and he had a drink in
them.
"Brad, do you relise what this means? This is amazing! We can use your power
to work wonders!" Dr Scott said as his mind raced with the possibilities.
" I dont think thats such a good idea," said Brad, " my dreams.I cant control
them. I dreamed that the 9-11 attacks never happened and that dream made a
whole country get wiped out by war, you cant rely on dreams to do what you
want," Brad insisted.
" yes yes," said Dr Scott, but it was obvuous that he was not listeing to
Brad. Dr Scott, it seemed, was having ideas of his own!
Okay, go to part 2 now!!!!! :)
