Time Threads #2: The Apparition


The last days of apprenticeship were fraught with disturbing visions for Siobhan Metalahwaggon. The Coming of Age Dream was only the beginning.
At night, she dreamed of an alien humanoid woman.  She had a penetrating stare with piercing purple eyes.. Yet Siobhan did not feel threatened by her. She was a striking creature: purple skin, a generous mouth, dark purple shoulder length hair. She had a powerful athletic physique. Her upper body was well defined without being grotesque. She stood close to seven feet tall, an incredible physical specimen. She clearly was not from the neighborhood. .
Suddenly. the alien dream was replaced by an encounter with Siobhan’s identical twin (even though she was an only child). When they looked upon each other they experienced a pulsing, erotic warmth that began in the chest and settled in the sex. Siobhan 2 reached to caress Siobhan and their hands met mid gesture, skin to skin; touch to touch; the tension climaxing in a passionate kiss that left her wet and breathlessly awake. The heat of the encounter dissipated leaving Siobhan confused and embarrassed.  

                           When Siobhan met with her mentor, Matsuka she skipped any mention of the alien woman or the erotic self-encounter. Instead, she sought counsel about the falling woman. Matsuka had programmed the SLEDD to simulate an imaginary location, a carousel house on a pier overlooking a beautiful bay at the edge of a sparkling city. They materialized under Observation Mode so that the local computer generated people would ignore them. After listening to the details of the dream Matsuka explained that the falling woman could be a manifestation of the precognitive aspects of their training. Matsuka prompted Siobhan to remember any other dreams of this nature.Reluctantly, she shared the alien, and the sexual embrace dreams. Matsuka assured her that the Sphere apparition and the dreams were all connected. A woman of unknown origins would become associated with Siobhan in the very near future!
