We’ll have to wait for more millions of years until the next civilization comes into existence and is ready to undergo another test of combat.
We selected the best fighters, trained them in different ways; nevertheless, we lost combats.
Why did we lose? It seemed we foresaw all possible attacks that one could imagine. We were struggling with this problem for a long time.
Now we have found the cause of loss.
We have staked on men, on their strength and logic.
That was our mistake.
We need different tactics. We don’t have to win – we will never be able to do that – we have not to lose.
Our fighter has to back out of attacks, before attackers stop the combat. At the same time, eluding blows should be combined with our repulse, and then the amount of attacks on us will go down. This is the way to victory.
MEN ARE LOGICAL, AND THUS FORECASTED.
That’s why we were losing.
Now we are staking on a woman – young, strong and trained.
She will be able to perceive attacks physically, through her intuition and life experience, which was being passed on to her at a genetic level, from generation to generation.
Nature entrusted her a human being’s birth and life maintenance.
Only she can hold out in the fight for life on Earth.
The time has come when only a woman can defend the sixth civilization on Earth. The life of people. Their future.
We were selecting a future fighter among all the women who have been born on the Earth since a human being’s exit into space. You are the best. Only you can hold out in this battle.
Now, you bear enormous responsibility for future generations and their lives, and the lives on Earth.
You are
SUPER
QUEEN-MOTHER.
It’s your call whether your civilization will live or die.
YOU ARE THE LAST HOPE.
Now we’ll send you back. Time is drawing on. You have only three days to make a decision».
Julia took off the helmet from her head and got up from the metallic armchair. Her surroundings took on their previous form, shot with cold metallic luster.
Julia slowly went to the exit. She could hardly digest all that fell upon her.
The rock moved aside, and Julia came out of the hall.
Before the scale moved back to its previous position, Julia heard the voice of the Earth Keepers, which said once more:
«ONLY THREE DAYS!»
The room she came into was quickly filling with water.
Julia saw as water layers, reminding her of cable stitch, were enveloping her body up and up, while water was filling the space. When it filled in the whole room, the outer part of the rock, walling the room from the external world, opened.
Julia was carried up. The rock behind her was closed.
She tried to snatch at a bush hanging over, but it was so stiff-leaved that she, wary of injuring her hand, released the branch, and was immediately dragged upward.
Her rate of rising was gradually increasing. She saw a small glowing spot overhead, which was growing little by little, and then turned into the bright sun.
Julia came to the surface at the same place, looked around and, having seen nobody nearby, slowly swam to the shore.
She was not tired but shocked by what she had heard and seen. It made her view everything around her in a different light.
She reached the shore, took off the mask and the snorkel, rinsed her face with sea water and came up to her half-sleeping friends.
They were still sunbathing, and even had not noticed her absence. Julia silently joined them, pondering over recent events.
