Chapter 1

Earth time; 4:34 post meridian, Bergen, Norway -- the sun is bordering the horizon, cool air dominated the atmosphere in a quiet surrounding as Erna paddled her bicycle in a routine pass time during her vacation on her parent's place in the valley without noticing a saucer shape thing hovering overhead. She lost her consciousness drifting towards the opening chute of the space vehicle paralyzed but can notice shadowy figures around her as she laid on the table feeling numb all over the body and slept.

Erna has no idea of what happened to her and lost track of time as she paddled down her bike. Arrived home as she saw the time on the wall struck 6:08. "I lost almost two hours," as she murmured. Although how restless she was, but did not intent to tell anybody what happened to her even her Polish husband who was abroad for she might be laughed off. She kept everything on herself in silence and to forget the incident for good.

Time has come to go back and rejoin her husband in Asia and help the development of their corn field. Her parents sent her off in the airport to wave good bye. The plane took off and as soon as the plane level up, Erna reclined her set a little, not to disturb the passenger occupying the next seat on her back and prepared to sleep. The weather was smooth for a plane ride with slight tail wind blowing mildly that improved the airplane speed as Erna went asleep. Then she dreamed; seeing herself being floated into the hub of a flying saucer and lied down on the operating table while one being undressed her buttock and in the frontal side another being inserted some kind of small hose connected to a glass tube and some kind of manipulation were done. "They move smoothly and skillfully exhibiting their experience in the given task from the start until I was fixed up to be return to the valley."

rna was about to scream when the flight attendant patted her arm to serve the meal. They finished their meals and few minutes more landed in Paris for the first league of the journey. Erna disembarked in Paris to avail her connecting flight to Asia where her Polish husband is waiting. After an hour of transit, Erna managed to embark on her last league of destination. This time, she does not like to sleep in the plane thinking that she might scream. She engaged some mixed conversation with her seat mate and after the meal, requested a set of cross word puzzle from the flight attendant and they played the game. The flight was so smooth with the same tali wind blowing until the captain voice crackled to prepare for landing.

Their plane touched down without hitch and rolled to the tarmac where tube channel was prepared for the passengers to disembark.

Passengers started to pull in line following the flow up to arrival lounge where families and friends are waiting to fetch. Though the arrival area was full of people excited to meet for their love ones yet Erna easily saw her husband as they rejoined and follow the route towards the parking lot. They drove for almost an hour avoiding the heavy vehicular traffics until they reached home. Then with so much love and longing to each other, they make love with much intensity until satisfied and panting.

The house is a modest one story bungalow of five rooms with light green roof, side walls with natural varnish both inside and outside including the high ceiling, furnished with wooden antic furniture, wide grilled widows and garage enclosed by two meters high concrete fence painted of beige and lighted all around the top. The yard is wide enough with bermuda grass spread along up to the concrete drive way, lined by suntan hedges up to the steel gate. Both wide side yard are planted with various fruit tree that created canopy up to the back yard. Dog house is neatly built adjacent to the maid's quarter and wide enough for their four gray hounds which they ran free inside the yard enclosure.

Erna is adamant to keep the incident to herself, and shall not tell her husband. After two months, suspected that she is conceiving and her husband; Roy brought her to see the doctor. After the examination the doctor confirmed the conception. Roy was so happy that at last he'll be a father, nursing his wife until Erna deliver a robust baby boy. The day is February 14, so Erna suggested to Roy to name their son; Valentine. The family went home and the maids meet them and rejoice for the child was so cute and healthy.

Baby Val as the maids called the child is growing strong and healthy. He was always been a fast developer and throughout his childhood, he demonstrated super capabilities that are seemingly impossible. His mom insisted with ambiguity (for what happened to her in Norway on the day of the abduction) that Val is a gifted child and has shown extraordinary abilities from a very young age. Usually, it takes a couple of months for infants to have the strength to hold their own heads up, as they're relatively heavy in comparison and their neck muscles aren't strong enough to support them. Val, on the other hand, was able to support his own head from just 15 days old. Of course, the development of every child is different but generally speaking, most children start beginning to speak closer to their first birthday – some earlier and some later. Val began speaking when he was only a couple of months old, which heralded the beginning of an ongoing pattern of early development. By the age of four and a half, Val was speaking in full sentences and perfect vocabulary. Despite this, his parents, and doctors, were baffled when the child was able to read, write, and draw by the age of two years old.

At the age of 9 months, he started to walk and talks like an adult person with sense. He was on Nursery school at the age of 4 years, can read long and difficult words and compose and write poems. At 5 years old can memorize a poem in short period and can perform math problems. This time Erna delivered another child, a baby girl as healthy as Val. At this stage, Val is already in Kinder Garden at 6 years old, can read some books started to recognize the importance of caring the environment by reprimanding maids on burning trashes. Started his formal schooling at seven years old and top the class until finishing grade school.

During one week end, his family took him along on a camping trip. After an hour of driving, they reached the camp site together with other campers. Roy parks their van and the maids started fixing their tents and help the other campers to gather dry woods and build a camp fire mount at the center of the camp site. Children were joyfully congregating and playing under the shades of tree canopies until sunset. Parents were preparing diners together with their helpers for the great picnic meals for the whole campers. After the bountiful diners the group gathered around the campfire, expecting some campfire stories or perhaps some scary stories. They got more than they expected. Val, who is now known as the exceptional child in the village, asked the group to sit around the campfire and listen to his strange tale. A University Professor living in the same village, was present at the camping trip too, recounts the strange occurrence. The professor explains that they witnessed the seven-year-old boy shares his story about his past life. The child spoke in great detail about how he had been living on the war-ravaged planet Mars, before being reborn on Earth. How he was shot down by enemy space craft and killed I action.

Val spoke for more than an hour about his Martian race thus were nearly wipe out by nuclear war on that planet. He believes that he was sent in planet Earth to ensure that the same fate does not befall the human race.

We all know that children can have wild imaginations but here's the scenario that is vividly un-imaginable. Val's parents never told him about Mars or outer space especially on such age. Val did not have access to books or the internet to research the subject, so how come he has this kind of knowledge?

The boy spoke with confidence as if an adult educated speaker that details astonished the audience about his past life. He described that Martians are seven feet tall generally, living underground since the nuclear war and breath carbon dioxide. Val explained that he was in Mars since his memory and had worked as outer space pilot and had visited planet Earth many times when it was just a single continent.

His tales describing both Earth and Mars possessed advanced societies with anti-gravity, time travel and teleportation technologies. Val particularly liked Egypt and he visited a lot with his saucer shape space craft, which uses Anti-gravity through Nano Technology, powered by nuclear plasma.

Though some of the audience believe him, his knowledge on galaxy bewildered the Professor. It is not unheard of that children are fascinated by space and may learn facts off by heart, but Val had a greater understanding of complex theories and function of the solar system for the seven years old boy.

Val narrated that in his past life, when he was just an equivalent of a teenager on Earth, the Martians tried to create a star out of Jupiter but failed that led to an all-out war on the planet he called home. Thus particular endeavor left its mark on Saturn which we now known the "Great Red Spot"

Val further explained that despite Earth scientist's efforts of finding life on Mars, yet they are looking at the wrong place. His previous people had to move underground to survive against the nuclear effects for the carbon dioxide breathers which they have learned to adapt in order to survive.

And maybe you ask why I prepared to be re-born here on Earth? I will tell you; "I am not alone" Think about some of my predecessors. I came to save the planet from Nuclear Destruction like what happened to our home during my past life and the belief about the secret hidden inside the Great Spink of Giza. The key to unlock these secrets are hidden behind the ears, but once they are unlocked, the World will be changed forever.

The Professor was so unsure of what he witnessed this evening that perhaps this is just a case of a highly intelligent and gifted child entertaining himself with tales of a fictional past life on Mars, or maybe we really have a Martian in our midst. His immense understanding of the Galaxy may not have been picked up from a book that we probably would not know until we unlock these secret in which he speaks as the camp fire losing its glow for the group to sleep and to prepare for another day.

Valentine Osnoflivich maintained to be outstanding in the secondary school with intense interest on science, especially on the outer space. His pass time is to stay in the school library that almost all science books were read before graduation. During school break, young Valentine enjoy outing and stays most of the times in their farm relishing the beauty of nature, camping on tree canopies and the admiration of the rhythm movement of trees blown by soft penetrating wind in tone with the twit of small birds.

As the young boy look up the blue sky, some plaguing curiosity deriving from what he read in the library science books about the Universe opined: "Some life forms did not originate on Earth and the real possibility is that both organic and inorganic maters derived from the outer space which is the source of everything, the Nature. One can probe that the nature of humanity did not come from Earth for this planet itself is an alien to where it is now located. Now that human craves for companionship in the vast emptiness of the cold Universe, an alien encounter is hopeful that one day will meet alien/s with the same rationality to human. Indeed it is just like science fiction, however through the sequence of time, reality is somewhere just in the corner."
