Nibiru Returns Read online

  I would just like to take some time to talk about this planet Nibiru as it was central to their culture as well as their beliefs about the end of the world. According to the Sumerians this planet Nibiru only orbited the sun once every 3600 years, although I believe that this figure is a mistranslation. The Sumerians said that this planet was home to a race of super beings called the Anunnaki, who they say came to earth in search of Gold for use on their home world. But the Anunnaki soon grew tired of their labours and decided to use humans to do their work for them and in exchange the Anunnaki taught man new technologies that allowed them to create the first civilisations. But it seems that humans prospered too much and the Anunnaki decided to destroy mankind in a great flood. As Gagan told us about earlier. But the humans survived this flood and grew anew. The Sumerians then go onto say that the next destruction of humans will occur when Nibiru next passes our solar system when there will be great earthquakes and floods and the return of the Anunnaki. So again we have an end of the world scenario involving earthquakes, disaster and floods, this time with an alien race called the Anunnaki coming to Earth.’ Aya paused once more taking a look at her notes. ‘So I hope you can see that there seem to be common thread concerning the destruction of Earth that run through all our past and present religions and cultures, but what does this all tell us?’

  So the evening continued and Aiden listened with interest as Aya talked about the varied myths and legends that were connected to the end of the world and how these same themes seemed to come up over and over again she even used slides to confirm her points. As Aiden listened try as he might he could not dismiss what Aya was saying as being just conspiracy theories. It seemed to him she was simply stating facts and was being completely impartial in the telling of them to her audience. She was also extremely beautiful and Aiden would have in all probability believed anything that she said!

  Aya after taking the final question thanked everyone for turning up and politely accepted a round of applause. Aiden was deciding whether to leave or try and talk with Aya when she looked directly at him and gestured for him to wait. Aiden as requested waited patiently at the back of the hall as Aya talked with some of the people who had remained behind. Currently she was engrossed in conversation with the business man that Aiden had seen earlier near the front. The guy was taller than Aiden and with immaculately cut blonde hair. He looked to Aiden like he could have been German soldier straight out of one of those old World War II movies. He’d make a great SS officer Aiden thought with some jealousy starting to resent the way the man was monopolising Aya. Looking around the hall Aiden could see that quite a few people had remained behind all of whom were now in earnest conversations. No doubt talking about the great flood and the end of the world! As for Aiden he was still not completely convinced. He had no doubt that what Aya and Gagan had said were based on fact. But there were always a thousand and one ways to interpret anything. Finally the blond haired businessman shook Aya‘s hand and strode away purposefully. Aya looked over at Aiden giving him a quick smile and began making her way over to him stopping to say hello or thank you to a few more people along the way until she finally got to where he was standing

  ‘I’m glad you could make it, I hope you got something out of it?’ Aya said with a smile.

  ‘Yes it was very informative. But... I mean do you really believe in all that... that end of the world stuff?’ Aiden replied with a frown.

  ‘Let me ask you this first’ she replied regarding him thoughtfully, ‘why are you so interested in the planet Nibiru?’

  ‘Well’ Aiden hesitated ‘it’s silly really’ Aiden paused again wondering if he should tell her about his dreams. But there was something about this woman that made him want to tell her. ‘It really is silly! But I have been having these strange dreams about this planet that is heading towards us, so..’ Aiden shrugged ‘see it really is silly!’

  ‘Not at all’ Aya shook her head in disagreement, ‘many schools of thought say that dreams are a sub conscious means of showing us things that are normally hidden. The shamans and mystics throughout the ages would induce a state of semi consciousness using drugs in order to dream and so make their predictions. So dreams are never silly! I would like to hear about this dream of yours.’ Aya stopped looking back at the remaining people in the hall. ‘Look I have to talk to some of the people here. A few of us are going for a quick drink in the pub across the road why don’t you come along and you can tell me all about this dream of yours.’

  ‘Well err sure’ Aiden replied trying to work out if she was actually asking him out.

  ‘Good I’ll see you over there in 10 minutes, in the saloon bar OK’ Aya smiled.

  ‘OK’ Aiden nodded with a grin and Aya turned back to talk with some of the other people who still remained in the hall.

  Chapter 3 - An Invitation

  A short while later Aiden was standing in the saloon bar of the pub across the road nursing a pint of beer with thoughts of Aya tumbling through his mind. Did she actually like him, was this whole evening her way of asking him out! No don’t be silly Aiden thought to himself, she’s just interested in his dream. But that smile she gave, maybe she did like him! Aiden looked around the bar and recognised some of the people who had been at the meeting earlier sitting at a long table at the back of the room. Apart from them there were just a handful of people scattered about the place all deep in their own thoughts and conversations. Taking a sip of his drink Aiden told himself to stop thinking like a kid about Aya just as she entered the bar and on seeing Aiden walked over to him.

  ‘Hi again’ she said smiling.

  ‘Hi, can I get you a drink’ Aiden replied reaching for his wallet.

  ‘No thank you, I should already have one. Come with me I’ll introduce you to the others’ she said quickly guiding him over to the group of people at the long table before Aiden had any chance to object.

  ‘I’d like you all to meet Aiden‘ Aya said introducing him to a dozen people seated around the table. ‘This is Long and his sisters Li and Hoshi’, Aya said pointing to the three Chinese people Aiden had seen in the hall earlier who nodded politely at him. Long and Li were twins with the same style short cut straight black hair. Hoshi on the other hand had long black hair and a pretty face her features being much more delicate than those of the twins.

  ‘And this is Dimitri and Oleska and their daughter Ela’ Aya introduced the smartly dressed elderly couple and their daughter that Aiden had seen earlier. Denitri was a stocky man with a neatly groomed head of grey hair and a moustache that sat on a well worn friendly face. Dimitri gave Aiden a grin. Oleska and Ella were both slim women with thin serious looking faces the only difference being that Ela had shoulder length pure black hair where as her mother's hair had streaks of grey in it.

  ‘This is Bridget and Elden’, Aya nodded towards a homely looking woman with curly red hair and a round rosy face and who sat next to a fair haired man that looked as if he was used to being outdoors, both of whom now nodded to Aiden.

  ‘And this is Faith and Aaron’ Aya continued, Faith was a small woman with blonde hair cut short into a bob and Aaron was a large West Indian man who dwarfed his small wife but who also had a friendly face.

  ‘And finally Seth and of course Gagan’ Aya said finishing the introductions. Seth was a ginger haired man about Aidens age who had blues eyes and a square jaw that was covered with a beard. Gagan as Aiden had already seen was a slim brown skinned man with intelligent black eyes and an unruly head of black hair that made him look like some kind of mad professor. They all said hello to Aiden who took the empty seat next to Aya.

  ‘Here’s your drink Aya’ Seth said passing her a glass of wine.

  ‘Thanks’ Aya said affectionately squeezing his arm which did not go unnoticed by Aiden who figured that Seth must be her boyfriend. So bang went his ideas that she might like him!

  ‘So you have found out where it is?’ Demitri said without preamble. He had a heavy East European accent and was smar
tly dressed in a white shirt, red tie and a brown blazer. From his grey hair Aiden guessed he must have been in his sixties but he still looked fit for his age.

  ‘Yes I completed the translation yesterday the location seems to be genuine’ Aya answered with a smile.

  ‘Oh but that is wonderful news’ The woman called Bridget said with a soft Irish accent.

  ‘So where is it exactly!’ Gagan asked excitedly, in an accent straight from the playing field of Eaton.

  ‘Yes where is it’ the others demanded hurriedly

  ‘Well give her a chance’ Aaron rumbled with a laugh. Aaron was possibly one of the largest West Indians that Aiden had ever met his arms looked the same size as Aiden‘s legs. But he also had a ready smile that immediately put Aiden at ease.

  ‘Thank you Aaron’ Aya said in the resulting silence ‘according to the translation it is somewhere in the mountains of Jordan’

  ‘Jordan! Not Iraq, well I never, but we should make ready and set off as soon as possible’ Gagan said not pausing for breath.

  ‘You cannot be serious’ Faith scoffed from beside Aaron a petite woman made smaller by the enormous size of Aaron sitting next to her. She had a somewhat pinched face with fiery black eyes and did not look at all pleased. ‘I have been listening to all these predictions and sanctuary nonsense for far too long now. None of you has a shred of evidence to back any of this up!’

  ‘Now now Faith’ Aaron said gently enclosing her small hand in his massive paw trying to calm her down. However some of the other members around the table where nodding their heads in agreement.

  ‘Olesaka you agree with me don’t you, as a hobby this is all fine but they are getting far too carried away with all of this!’ Faith continued undeterred.

  ‘I simply want to see if this place exists; if it does it will be the find of the centaury!’ Gagan shot back at Faith angrily.

  ‘Well I wish you luck on your silly goose chase then’ Faith retorted.

  ‘Come on Faith don’t be like that no one is doing anything as yet’ Seth said trying to calm things down and giving Gagan a warning look not to reply.

  ‘But I must agree with Faith’ Olesaka said with a thick European accent similar to that of her husband. ‘I really do this for the sake of my Demi here and I know my Demi, as lovely as he is, can get a bit carried away sometimes.’

  ‘Now my sweet but you also know that sometimes I am right no!’ Demitri said kissing his wife’s hand and giving her his best boyish smile. ‘Aiden what is your story are you a believer like me or a doubter like my wife?’ Demitri continued diplomatically changing the subject.

  Well I errr I don’t know’ Aiden replied completely out of his depth.

  ‘Aiden has been having some strange dreams’ Aya said much to Aidens shock and embarrassment.

  ‘Dreams what dreams are these Aiden’ Demitri asked with raised eyebrows.

  ‘Oh nothing really, it’s err well it’s nothing’ Aiden mumbled wondering why on Earth Aya had done this to him.

  ‘Aiden my friend do not worry you cannot be as mad as we are!’ Demitri smiled waving his hand round the table.

  ‘Not as mad as you husband anyway’ Oleska scolded him ‘and leave the poor boy alone if he does not want to tell us that is for him to decide’

  ‘Aiden I would really love to hear about this dream of yours, I think that it will be somehow important for all of us here’ Aya said gently encouraging Aiden on.

  Aiden looked at Aya and the expectant faces of the people around the table and with a sigh of resignation he made up his mind to tell them. So Aiden then told them of the dreams that he had been having. About the strange planet and the dangerous creatures that it contained and about where it was heading. When he had finished he was greeted by silence around the table and Aiden felt himself grow red with embarrassment certain they all must think him a lunatic.

  ‘Our father before he died told us of such a place’ the Chinese man Long said breaking the silence. ‘He too had had visions, like your dreams. Of a place of great evil. It was he who instructed my sisters and I to seek an ancient refuge for ourselves for he said that his vision warned of our doom and that this refuge would be our only hope’ Long paused looking around the table. ‘This is why we came here when we heard what mistress Aya was teaching.’

  ‘That is it, isn’t it!’ Seth said suddenly slapping his hand on the table, Aiden’s dream it can only be one thing right’ Seth looked around at the others. ‘Well it has got to be hasn’t it? I mean that dream of Aiden’s is about Nibiru, isn’t it. Somehow Aiden has seen this place just like Long’s father. And its heading our way!’

  With that the table exploded into conversations with arguments about what Aiden’s dream signified and whether it was about Nibiru or not.

  ‘Now look what you have done’ Aya whispered in Aiden’s ear with a wicked little smile. Aiden was by now was completely lost. Here he was with a group of strangers who were having a heated discussion about a crazy dream he had had been having. He now knew how Alice must have felt at the Mad Hatters tea party as he listened to the various discussions taking place around the table.

  ‘Aiden I know this seems strange for you’ Aya said reading Aiden’s mind. ‘But through my studies I believe that what we have all been taught about man’s past has only been a small part of the story. Almost all our historical records go back no more than a five thousand years if that! And historians have in any case mainly concentrated on recent western history treating any data from the ancient worlds as just a lot of primitive ramblings of a barely literate society. For instance remember when I talked about the great flood?’ Aya said looking at Aiden who nodded his head. ‘Well western historians have always ignored this event saying that it was just superstition and nothing more. Yet now as Gagan told us we are discovering the remains of prehistoric towns and cities that lie submerged in our oceans many miles from the coast. These sites have been found all over the world and all these places existed around the same time in history. So only now are some scientists beginning to look at the great flood myth seriously, though they are doing it quietly for fear of being ridiculed! You see modern science seems incapable of ever believing that our ancestors instead of being just primitive settlers may have actually been far more advanced than we had first thought. Possibly even more advanced than we are today in some ways. According to most scientists our ancestors were simple nomads who learnt how to farm and lived in larger and larger groups and that is pretty much all they did for the next 10,000 years‘ Aya paused looking around the table at the others who were now listening to her intently. ‘But’ she continued ‘what if? That is the question. What if the stories that were written down all those thousands of years ago were not just some religious fantasies of a shaman in a trance out in the desert! What if these ancient people were as clever as we are today! That the stories they wrote down are a true and accurate record of events as they happened not just some fairy tale. I mean how could a whole range of diverse and geographically distant cultures all write about a great flood and now we find evidence of ancient towns and cities that were swallowed by the ocean! Does that not confirm that there must have once been a great ancient flood’ Aya said looking around the table. ‘And if we then believe that a great flood did in fact take place based on this evidence then should we not look seriously at other events that these cultures and religions have in common and maybe we will find other things that actually happened’ Aya paused once more . ‘You know that when I started looking at these connections between civilisations and cultures from the past one other fact in particular stood out’ Aya said looking at Aiden once more. ‘All these ancient civilisations started looking at and writing about the stars at around about the same time and they all believed that their gods came down from the skies, again is this just coincidence? Why did all these cultures become so interested in the stars? Why would they talk about a second sun, great comet, or gigantic planet? These cultures all go on to describe how their Gods, beings wh
o were like humans, came to earth. These beings were far more powerful than humans and had technologies that would not have been out of place in our modern world. Which if these beings were actually a space faring race would certainly be the case I think. The ancient records go on to say that these Gods or aliens then either created man or enslaved man bringing him death and destruction, or they were benevolent teaching man how to prosper. My question then, are all these stories just make believe or did something like that actually happen in human prehistory! The Sumerians say that these beings where brought to Earth by a planet they called Nibiru. We already know that the Sumerians had an extraordinary grasp of astronomy. They had already identified all the planets of our solar system and understood the movement of the stars and planets. So should we just dismiss what they say about this strange planet as pure superstition’ Aya looked around the silent table again. Even Faith was now keeping quiet. ‘If we were to believe them, the Sumerians. Then there was many thousands of years ago a planet that passed through our solar system. This planet was home to a race of beings that had God like powers when compared to humans. These same beings then came to earth and interacted with mankind giving humans the tools to start building their first civilisations. These beings were seen as Gods by our ancestors and mankind’s faith and religion has reflected this belief ever since. You only have to look at various Gods that the Sumerians, Hindu’s, Egyptian’s, Greeks, Roman’s even the Christians believe in to see that they may be based on beings that were not of this world.’

  ‘Oh but you are wrong there, the Christians only believe in one God’ Faith interrupted with certainty

  ‘But don’t the Christians always pray to the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Is Jesus not a God and what would you call the Holy Spirit if not another God. But Ok I will give you that lets say the Christians, Jew’s and Muslims are monotheistic and believe in only one God. However all these religions believe in angels and demons that have particular powers who either work for the benefit or detriment of man do they not! So you see there is still a connection there as with the other religions’ Aya answered Faith. ‘Furthermore’ Aya paused and looked around the group to emphasise her next words, ‘if these ancient texts are records of events that actually happened and were not based on superstition. Then this planet that the Sumerians called Nibiru will one day return to our solar system. And when that happens, according to the Sumerians at least, it will signal the end of the world as we know it!’ Aya held up her hand to stop Faith interrupting her. ’According to the texts there will be a great cataclysm on Earth when this planet returns and it will be the end of this age as we know it with another great flood and the destruction of most of mankind.‘ Aya paused and looked at Aiden who was as spell bound as the others. ‘And unfortunately the predicted arrival of this planet is now upon us!‘ Aya added almost casually.
