The Thing: from the Depths of Hell by V Bertolaccini Page B

scientists could not, and do it to
a greater degree than ever before, and he was positive by their
reactions that they had never had their day, and encounter with
anything for them to them use their stuff properly on, and they had
even considered that they might never come upon anything, and
achieve their goal, and that it would be left for the people who
followed them someday to find and get marked in the history books
for, even though they would be remembered for creating the stuff,
and setting up their group.
    If only they
could just find something that had gone undetected by everyone
else, with their detection methods and equipment!
    He staggered
when he considered what they could come up with, as they had
advanced far further than he had even imagined, and the place was
packed solid with ever form of equipment possible, and it went
beyond his imagination what they might do.
    It was like an
experiment to them to see what would happen if they pushed beyond
the boundaries of natural science, and out it to the
supernatural.
    The dark sky
of the void through the porthole now showed him the abyss of
billions of light years of blackness that there was between there
and the Earth, and the dangers of their exploration, and he
considered if he would ever arrive home.
    “ Well,
we have finished!” Mitchel announced, dragging himself away from
his work on the equipment.
    It was
incredible! He realized that he had been there for an hour and they
still had not notified him what they were doing, and what it was
for.
    Bryan marched
over, with a smile, and patted his arm.
    “ We are
here to help you!” he announced. “We do not want all our work being
ruined, and all our valuable stuff available everywhere before we
have properly used it!”
    Kruger did see
their point of view!
    “ You’re
correct, of course,” he replied. “And you should be paid for the
invention and sale of the equipment, and make all the major
findings ...”
    Both
scientists thanked him, and were surprised that he had even
realized what they had done.
    “ As one
of the leading scientists on aliens here, your work interests me
greatly!” he informed them, even though they knew what he was about
anyway.
    “ You’ll
love this then ...” Bryan replied, looking at their invention,
completed and ready for action.
    Kruger
examined their scientists and the equipment carefully, and tried
again at estimating what they were doing, and left it until they
either told him or showed him its use, and he was sure that it was
the latter, as it might be better just to show it.
    They silently
considered what to tell him!
    “ When we
finished checking outside,” Bryan stated, “we realized that we
could come up with something to use in the spacecraft to check the
alien ...
    “ Well,
after we saw the alien, and heard those sounds, which appeared all
around it, at specific regions, we realized we should!”
    “ So you
can properly check the alien further?” Kruger replied.
    “ We can
check it within other dimensions ... And those sounds that appeared
all around it ...”

    The Multidimensional
Equipment
     
    Once they had
safely moved all the equipment over to a region near the alien,
other scientist joined them, and Major Ripley arrived, and stood
wondering, looking worried, and occasionally examined the
equipment, confused.
    Major Ripley
was still worried about the weapons that they were going to use
there, as well as just about the entire military, especially those
dealing with it, and the magnitude of weapons, and they had clearly
started thinking of the alien as being a less of a danger now.
    The whole ship
knew of the affair, and people were relocating to the opposite side
of the ship, for safety.
    Finally Major
Ripley moved up close to the equipment, and asked, “Well, are you
going to give us something about what this is about?”
    “ It is
basically to check the alien further than before,” Mitchel replied.
“It is also a more accurate
