-1no label
| silhouette , already a solid black . |
|
-1no label
| dusk was settling over dow's lake and |
|
-1no label
| cuffed the sides of his head . then |
|
-1no label
| steadily and looked about the room , |
|
-1no label
| he waited . the bus stop was a deserted island on an empty street . |
|
-1no label
| walked , or drove , or waited as a person possessed of |
|
-1no label
| a single all-exclusive purpose . |
|
-1no label
| they followed him to a city bus stop on carling avenue , where |
|
-1no label
| the avenue from its many tributary streets . it might have |
|
-1no label
| been a normal business-day bustle , except for two anomalies . |
|
-1no label
| but not for long , for soon pedestrians and cars flocked upon |
|
-1no label
| " ... i will not give in ... " he stared at her |
|
-1no label
| melt away into emptiness . his bulging |
|
-1no label
| eyes caught the reclining form of heather , |
|
-1no label
| who was still repeating in sing-song : |
|
-1no label
| of half words . |
|
-1no label
| through him , and his mind seemed to |
|
-1no label
| prepared the way for the second stage . |
|
-1no label
| first stage in the thetan pattern of conquest , |
|
-1no label
| and these had been his great qualities , |
|
-1no label
| so attractive to her . the base station had |
|
-1no label
| reversed progression . it had brought the |
|
-1no label
| the empty-minded receptiveness that |
|
-1no label
| gone before , discharging its narrow plane of |
|
-1no label
| 4ementalating energy along the length of |
|
-1no label
| the earth's imaginary longitudes , moving |
|
-1no label
| shell of flesh and bone , devoid of intellect and |
|
-1no label
| then something like a zest for living began to come back |
|
-1no label
| to steve and he squeezed her hand . her face took on |
|
-1no label
| dan , or rather the physical relic of him - the empty |
|
-1no label
| she was growing cold and numb with shock . she had seen |
|
-1no label
| enough animation to produce a wan smile . dan's low mut- |
|
-1no label
| tering was just audible from the kitchen . and steve |
|
-1no label
| could see that as heather recovered her senses and emotions |
|
-1no label
| shaken , steve drew a glass of water and went back to |
|
-1no label
| for several minutes they had been facing each other across |
|
-1no label
| trying to shake-off the last traces of hypnotic after-effects . |
|
-1no label
| heather . half an hour later heather and steve were still |
|
-1no label
| there was utter imbecility in his blank face . presently the |
|
-1no label
| each other through forced association . |
|
-1no label
| a low table , like two old convalescents thoroughly bored with |
|
-1no label
| muttering started again , and went on and on . stunned and |
|
-1no label
| back at them . " heather agreed , and suggested |
|
-1no label
| working out . it occurred to steve that this may |
|
-1no label
| ting how the thetan machinations had been |
|
-1no label
| that they use dan as a specimen demonstra- |
|
-1no label
| there is just a hope that we may uncover |
|
-1no label
| on her part ; but he thought it a good idea |
|
-1no label
| not have been entirely an objective suggestion |
|
-1no label
| some weakness , and find a way of fighting |
|
-1no label
| and to decide on what seemed to be the best |
|
-1no label
| the way . heather was very anxious to visit dan at |
|
-1no label
| once ; but steve insisted that they should first discuss |
|
-1no label
| their situation , as far as it could be assessed , |
|
-1no label
| the thetans must not see him ! he took another route |
|
-1no label
| to heather's and saw two more flying saucers on |
|
-1no label
| way of meeting it . |
|
-1no label
| take charge , as it were , of the minds of the |
|
-1no label
| caped thetan subjugation . this time . but we no |
|
-1no label
| longer have any immunity . |
|
-1no label
| " the thetans , " he said , " are presumably here to |
|
-1no label
| selves in their zeal to get their orders and to carry |
|
-1no label
| them out . just what these orders will be , we don't |
|
-1no label
| know . now , because of prior hypnosis we have es- |
|
-1no label
| people - who are probably falling all over them- |
|
-1no label
| after what seemed an undue period of repetition , the voice |
|
-1no label
| to keep an appointment with heather . |
|
-1no label
| same empty streets as he had the night before , |
|
-1no label
| went on to describe the landing of the thetan colony |
|
-1no label
| in sussex , in all its obscene details . then the radio |
|
-1no label
| should be . steve got out the car and traversed the |
|
-1no label
| breakfast . it was a beautiful day , as firsts-of-june |
|
-1no label
| went dead again , and steve had no stomach for |
|
-1no label
| communication and of a vague |
|
-1no label
| perplexity respecting his surroundings |
|
-1no label
| and the purpose he was to serve . |
|
-1no label
| at home . steve switched on dan's |
|
-1no label
| his whole attitude was a mixture of |
|
-1no label
| turned the tuning knob through all the |
|
-1no label
| powerful , world-wide radio and systematically |
|
-1no label
| impatience pending an awaited |
|
-1no label
| heather and steve tried to make themselves |
|
-1no label
| faces very disconcerting ; and looking at |
|
-1no label
| beginning to find the stereotyped , flattish , happy |
|
-1no label
| seats some rows behind him . steve was |
|
-1no label
| heather he found a welcome relief in her |
|
-1no label
| relatively long doleful one |
|
-1no label
| followed the beaming dan aboard , taking |
|
-1no label
| after a long wait a bus appeared and they |
|
-1no label
| ventured forth and made their way on |
|
-1no label
| nor sound of flying saucers . so they |
|
-1no label
| foot to dan's house . dan came |
|
-1no label
| a new and strange phenomenon . |
|
-1no label
| to the door at their ring but neglected |
|
-1no label
| was clear . the street was quiet and |
|
-1no label
| preoccupied , and it seemed that the |
|
-1no label
| ringing of a doorbell was to him |
|
-1no label
| so they proceeded to see if the coast |
|
-1no label
| to offer any greeting . he was deeply |
|
-1no label
| with jaws askew . |
