Sieg Heil
-- Chapter 20
1.
Although Heinrich Himmler was responsible for selecting the Fuhrer's
personal guard, there was one guard in particular that Hitler had known
during his days as a political columnist in Vienna. That
guard, Hitler revered as a national treasure.
2. The
pre-Chancellor Hitler admired the young man
for his tight, gaunt features and youthful appearance. Dieter was
the Aryan
prototype upon whom the entire eugenics policy was modeled. He
could run with the best, but didn't take himself as seriously as others
did. Dieter thought the relentless staring was due to his
award-winning charm. Being able to have his way most of the time
gave him a positive world view.
3. Poster boys know that their appeal is sexually
motivated. Dieter learned as a teenager that his sex-object
status was his greatest weapon, but he never let it get to his
head.
He preferred the company of ordinary people and avoided the bourgeois
set. Hitler spotted Dieter in a large crowd and exposed him as
the perfect physical specimen, "There is the future of Germany!"
Hitler was an up and rising star, so the Fuhrer's admiration guaranteed
Dieter's celebrity status in the new reich.
4. To
Hitler, Dieter was a tantalizing embodiment of German potential;
the future in tangible form. Hitler promised Dieter that he would
never be used as a petty stooge or subjected to inner circle squabbles;
Dieter would live an
enchanted life above pedestrian
concerns.
5. Before the Chancellery was built, Hitler promoted
Dieter to SS bodyguard 'consort.' Hitler ordered that Dieter's
title, function and
position be kept confidential. He also made Goebbles and Himmler
inplicitly understand that Dieter was off-limits; answerable to him and
him alone.
6. Not
unlike Eva Braun, who added an intriguing dymamic to Hitler's private
life, Dieter had Reich Carte Blanche without portfolio. The most
heavily guarded secret was Hitler's intention to implant Eva with
Dieter's sperm and raise the children as his own. Dieter was
Hitler's genetic avatar. Hitler wanted to wait until after New
Berlin was built.
7. As a privately-owned toy, Dieter had absolute immunity from
everything. Goebbles
begged the Fuhrer to change his mind because of Dieter's
tremendous propaganda potential. "Absolutely Not! Out of
the question!" Hitler said, "I've permitted Becker to use an
approximate likeness for his sculptures, and nothing more."
8.
Hitler's personal protection enabled Dieter to romantacize the Nazi
illusion even more than
Eva. Dieter was ostensibly 'in-the-know' and immune from
Boremann. As the model Aryan
symbol, he was more avant guard than Albert Speer. Hitler's inner
circle had multiple roles, but not Dieter. Unlike the others,
Hitler had private audiences with Dieter. Unlike the others,
Dieter's location and whereabouts were undocumented as a matter of
policy.
9. Goering's own intelligence agency discovered
Hitler's plan to use Dieter as a surrogate sire. Overnight,
other inner circle members began contracting Dieter to sire their
children too. If the Fuhrer says that Dieter's genetics are above
all others, then everyone wants Dieter to sire their kids.
10.
Hitler believed
that sperm was the greatest physical power in existence.
Therefore, Dieter’s sperm was at the very top of the food
chain.
11.
In Himmler's castles, Nazi eugenists taught that one 'was' what one
'ate.'
12. Hitler ordered that all research be kept
confidential.
13. He preferred
that public revulsion remain intact so that inferior races could not
improve themselves by absorbing superior genetic material. Laws
against everything non-Aryan helped to preserve Aryan purity.
14. Dieter was not made aware of the deeper subtextual significance of
his existence. He may have suspected that his body was more than
an ordinary resource, but he could not have known the entire
epistemology that his physique inspired.
Dieter was the standard by which the Hitler Youth were
measured.
15. To maintain his mental health, Hitler sent Dieter on long
vacations at
the State's expense. He was fed the finest food at the best
resorts and kept on a rigorous physical conditioning program.
Dieter knew how good he had it, so he accepted his
role without complaint.
16.
Whatever he wanted, the State provided.
17. Dieter was the only confidant in
whom Hitler could invest his inner-most thoughts. Hitler would
let his hair down, tell jokes and even act silly since he and Dieter
shared a private Universe.
18. Hitler was less avant guard with his inner
circle -- they were his closest political allies with intimate visiting
privileges and could claim a personal friendship with the Fuhrer.
They were invited to his home; dined, drank and watched movies with
him. Unlike Dieter, Hitler would not hesitate to have all of them
shot if necessary, for gross mismanagement, with the exception of
Speer.
19. Fortunately, inner circle in-fighting, by
design, gave Hitler a means to appear heroic to the public. "If
only the Fuhrer knew about that..."
20. With Dieter, Hitler could reveal the core
metaphysical workings of his inner mind; a profile that Mein Kampf
never revealed.
21. Hitler
was already the State religion. Women loved him because everyone
obeyed him. All
of his tactics and strategies put Germany back on the map. He was
the uncontested master of Europe.
22. Dieter was was told that dissident citizens were sent to
rehabilitation centers, reeducated and released. Any rumor of
genocide was categorically denied. Hitler approved of euthanasing
dysfunctional elements of society that had been unwilling to relocate
when they had the chance.
23. Corlos concluded that Dieter was exactly who
they were looking for. Once the quantum entanglement
between Hitler's regime and Kor's Empire could be extracted from
Dieter's mind, he would be re-trained as a Corlos operative.
Dieter could not be held accountable for anything that Hitler did,
simply
for being his genetic avatar. Beautiful people inspire
lustful people to commit crimes all the time.
24. Corlos did not find Hitler's eugenics program significantly
different from the arrogance displayed by every species in the
Universe. Racial
purification has many faces and guises, some more graphic than
others. Every culture develops genetic weapons but does not
always use them.
25. Dieter knew Hitler on a philosophical level. His life
also ended by an insurgent car bomb, so it made perfect sense to
recruit
him.
26. Alma calculated the precise moment
to recruit Dieter. A bomb obliterated Hitler’s
chauffeur-driven vehicle while enroute to Wolf's Lair. Nobody
survived.
27. The Nazi's possessed insufficient forensic technology to
confirm or deny whether Dieter was obliterated or not. He was
never listed on travel orders and technically didn't exist. The
scenario was perfect.
28. Daniel gave the order, "Make it happen." Alma excused
himself from the conference and returned to the simulator.
DAYTON'S
RECRUITMENT
29. By the time Dieter's mind could register that
a bomb had exploded, his life on Earth had ceased. Like everyone
else, he thought he had died.
30. He found himself lying
awake
on the floor of an immense chamber within the core of
Sunova. His only thought was, "Am I alive?"
31. The unusual quiet of deep space and the
suppressed gravity of Sunova had
its expected effect on Dayton. He would no longer be called
Dieter. He was renamed "Dayton" to end his German avatar
past, and begin his Corlos operative future. 'Dieter' died in a
car
bomb explosion.
32. "This is the afterlife?" he asked, like so many recruits before
him. The Enochian key made it easy for Alma to understand his
German.
33.
"In a manner of speaking," came Alma's perfectly translated
response.
"There's a
cliché where you come from... 'this
is the first day -- of the rest of your life.’ Welcome to
Corlos." Dayton laughed because the transliteration
sounded like Goering.
34. He was
conscious when the bomb obliterated his car. Now he was
hearing that strange, lulling music. It was flowing through his
soul and spiritually uplifting.
35. After an abbreviated tour of Corlos, Alma delivered Dayton to
A.I. personnel who would integrate Dayton's mind into a Kor
database. While connected, Dayton was able to freely roam inside
the computer's mind. He discovered truths that mortals only dream
about. "This is really, really interesting," Dayton
thought. He made a list of areas that he wanted to explore as
time permitted.
36. Previous recruits had never been downloaded into a
database. Dayton was the first. Every
nuance of his neurology and subjective reasoning was downloaded into
a biological computer. The A.I. technicians were
unconcerned that Dayton had unobstructed access to other areas of the
mainframe. In effect, Dayton was able to download skills,
abilities, languages and talents that he did not previously
possess. "It's a fair trade," he reasoned, fascinated by all
there was to know about the Universe. "If everyone could know
this -- we would see The One sooner," he concluded.
37. As
the computer began to cross-pollinate Dayton engrams into Kor-logic,
the results
became more
and more understandable. By the time the process was concluded, a
response plan was prepared. Kor was not as
narcissistic at Hitler, and unlike Hitler -- Kor listened to his
military advisors. That key difference would enable Kor to wage a
war for decades, but not without absorbing ideological toxins that
would eventually infect and kill his regime.
38. "How beautiful, yet simple," Daniel
said. "It's always right in front of you. Someone,
somewhere has the answer -- you just have to find it. This time
it was you," Daniel said to Dayton. "You've performed a great
service, Dayton. We got what we needed."
39. Dayton was moved by Daniel's warmth.
Unlike Hitler, Daniel radiated a godliness that reflected eons worth of
wisdom. "Daniel," Dayton whispered, as if stumbling upon the key
to an unsolved mystery. Daniel could see the genuine
introspection in Dayton's eyes. "Yes?"
40. "Have you seen Him?"
41. Daniel leaned his head back and stared
incredulously into Dayton's eyes with a kindly gleam in his own.
There's never any harm in asking.
42. Then he let out his breath, "What did you do
while you were hooked up to the computer?"
43. Dayton looked guilty.
44. "Just remember, Dayton," Daniel said, "We are
responsible for what we know."
45. Was that an answer or an evasion tactic?
Dayton didn't want to think too loudly.
46. Daniel permitted an inner light to leak from
behind his eyes, "Yes Dayton," he answered, "I have." Then he
winked. That was the only time that Daniel actually confirmed the
rumor, and Dayton was the one who asked the question.
47. As Daniel walked toward his office, he said to
nobody in particular, "Ask and ye shall receive." Dayton grinned,
because he had heard that before.
48. The end would come. The question
was
"when?" Dayton had downloaded a schematic of Corlos.
Because he had essentially served his purpose for recruitment,
operations had no urgent need to redeploy him. Corlos wanted to
keep Dayton close just in case his mind was needed again. In the
meantime, Dayton set out to conduct some experiments of his own, using
the new information that he had aquired while connected to the
mainframe.
49. Dayton had downloaded the keys to everything that he needed
to know, and he knew how to access information that would yet be
useful. He wanted to create a pocket-sized portable assistant
that could store information interdimensionally. There were
things that Dayton accessed that nobody had ever
accessed.
50. After completing field operations ground
school, Corlos assigned him to 27th century Earth for his
first
test-assignment. His assignments would increase in complexity
until he became fully vested. Earth had a genetic filter that
prevented non-indigenous life from
surviving there, so it was a perfect first assignment for
Dayton.
51.
Daniel took an interest in Dayton's experimental computer
platforms. "How come nobody else has ever conducted these
experiments?" Daniel asked B'jhon. "He reverse
engineers component that are centuries ahead of him, and designs
quantum-layered motherboards
that store and access information in other dimensions. Even the
machines are impressed."
52. "I asked our slip specialists to pry a
little," B'jhon said, "Interdimensional intelligence helped him leap
forward in quantum
computational science. He was also plugged into our mainframe
when he first got here."
53. "So he's blessed with trans-dimensional
assistance while others spin their wheels?" Daniel didn't say it
in a mean spirited way. Information is ambient -- one simply
needs to know how to access it. "Disbelief doesn't negate a
single fact," Daniel said, referring to a previous conversation.
Traffic accidents are proof of missing facts.
54. "I'm theorizing an entanglement of some type,"
B'jhon suggested. Daniel nodded, "That would make
sense." They both paused as if having another conversation apart
from this one. "Well," Daniel continued, "let's see how he does
on The One's special spec in
the Universe." Daniel patted B'jhon on the shoulder and
headed for operations.
27th CENTURY
EARTH
55.
Dayton's assignment was to blend
into 27th century Cape Canaveral at the Kennedy III campus
archives. He was credentialed to supervise the working historical
artifacts in the telemetry section. Other operatives had gathered
the items that he would need and set the stage so that he could walk
right into the role. He blended in so seamlessly that he didn't
need to act.
56.
Compared to what he had already accomplished on Corlos, 27th century
Earth technology was uninspiring, except for its historical
significance. Fortunately, his trans-dimensional masterpiece was
nearly completed. It was shaped like a 4"x7" photograph that he
named Xanax. To anyone
else, Xanax was just an old photo. Upon closer inspection,
however, one might notice that the pixels were really a plasma
screen. Dayton kept Xanax in his shirt pocket to ward off the
curious.
57. Dayton continued to work on
his ideas using Xanax as an organizer. Xanax could hear him just
fine from his pocket, except that Xanax preferred to speak in
German.
58. Dayton tasked Xanax to perfect
quantum slip calculations associated with trans-dimensional
travel. As Xanax began to assimilate and quantify quantum
information, "it"
became self aware; capable of making emotionally-influenced
decisions. Dayton gave Xanax a masculine gender.
59. Under test conditions, Corlos provided limited information so
that the agent would discover the rest. Several unnatural
vortices were expected to
converge on the Earth, but the details were cloudy. Operations
feared that excessive observation could potentially disfigure Earth's
natural time line.
60.
Dayton's mission was to gather as much information as he could about
the unnatural vortices so that they could be interdicted. Then
B'jhon wanted to cite Xanax as justification to accelerate Dayton's
promotion to full field agent. So far, everything was going
according to plan.
