TEMPUS CHAPTER FORTY FOUR<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"prev\"<\/a> \"next\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Great leaders are almost always great simplifiers, who can cut through argument, debate and doubt, to offer a solution everybody can understand. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Colin Powell<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u201cWatcher it is time we talked to the leaders of the world. Do we have a way to do that?<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can video conference to the UN. The UN can connect everyone to the conference.”<\/p>\n

\u201cLet’s get it on the go.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI will need some time Cristian.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLet me know when they are ready.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cristian had a million details running through his mind as he ate his burger. Lorelei was sitting across from him watching him eat. He looked over at the woman he loved, all the details faded and he focused on her. \u201cHow do you do that?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHow do I do what Cristian?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI have the weight of the world on my shoulders. One look into your eyes and that weight is gone.”<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat about the burger?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDelicious as always woman.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGood my job is done.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cristian looked at her and smiled \u201dNot yet Lorelei.\u201d<\/p>\n

She leaned over and whispered,\u201d Are you suggesting that you pay for your supper with sex?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYES.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was a very big supper Cristian.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThen I will pay accordingly.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCristian your conference is ready in the studio,\u201d said Watcher.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have a call Lorelei thank you for a wonderful supper.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWow, he is pulling a dine and dash.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cristian walked into the studio the images of the leaders of the world were projected on the entire wall. “Watcher can you translate simultaneously. Record the entire event.”<\/p>\n

\u201cNo problem.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLadies and Gentlemen leaders of the nations of the planet Earth. Thank you for agreeing to meet. Thank you to the UN for helping facilitate this meeting. How should we start?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Wolf I am the Secretary-General of the United Nations I have been asked to keep this meeting focused. The leaders of the world would like to say thank you for bringing the truth to its peoples and for the removal of the Lizard stronghold on Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt needed to be done Secretary-General.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have discussed the leadership of the world and would ask if you would be the first leader of the Planet Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs I mentioned in newscasts. I would do this if the vote from the leaders of the world was unanimous. I would accept the position until an election could be held with the chance for all the people of all nations to vote for your leader.”<\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Wolf, can you see all the leaders?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, I can see over two hundred faces.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWould a show of hands suffice?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, Secretary-general but I would like to mention a couple of items before the vote.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, Mr. Wolf go ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLadies and Gentleman even though some of my DNA is of Alien origin I consider myself Human. Our scientists have finished a weapon that can destroy the Lizard home planet. I will use it if I am given no other choice. Know that any more loss of human life is unacceptable. If there is not a complete cessation of hostilities against the planet Earth. The Lizard world will be forfeit. You need to know before you vote me in as your leader that I plan to do them harm if they do not comply.”<\/p>\n

\u201cThe vote shall commence. Those in favour of having Cristian Wolf declared the leader of The Planet Earth. Raise your hands\u201d<\/p>\n

One by one the leaders of all the nations raised their hands.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll those opposed?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThree hands raised.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI see three hands raised in opposition. I required this to be unanimous or I will decline the position.<\/p>\n

Before I step down I would like to know, why the opposition? I would like to ask a question of each of you? Are any of you a Lizard? Or collaborator? If you are, step forward and I will make sure that the courts are lenient. If not I will come to see you in person. You cannot hide.”<\/p>\n

One of the three shed his human skin while everyone else watched on. \u201cYou will all die, my brethren will be here soon. We will never stop coming at you until you are extinct.” There were gunshots as the Lizard was cut down by his own bodyguards. Bodyguards who thought he was human.<\/p>\n

The other two surrendered themselves as collaborators. Cristian Wolf was now the leader of Planet Earth.<\/p>\n

\u201cLadies and Gentlemen thank you for your votes of confidence.
\nThe first order of business will be to arrest those collaborators. We will attempt to meet on a daily basis using this network. I am hoping with the help of the United Nations as soon as possible I would like to meet the men and women who lead your military. Good night and thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you First Leader Wolf. I now adjourn our meeting.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWatcher cut the feed and get me, Larry King.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLarry, how are you?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am good Cristian.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLarry I would like you to come to work with me?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, I will.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou haven’t heard what the job is?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDoesn’t matter I am in.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cExcellent when can I pick you up?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNow is fine.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBefore I pick you up could you broadcast the footage of the vote please send it to all news stations at the same time. Sorry, no more exclusivity. Watcher is uploading it to your computer and YouTube right now. See you in an hour, Pack a bag Larry you will be staying a while. I will pick you up at your house.”<\/p>\n

\u201cWatcher end the call.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cristian went back into the cafeteria and found Lorelei.<\/p>\n

“How is the First lady of the Planet Earth?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSay what what?\u201d said Lorelei.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was just voted in by the leaders of the world. You are married to the First Leader of the Planet Earth. Oh yeah, we smoked out another Lizard out and a couple of collaborators. The Lizard was killed by his own bodyguards when he shed his human disguise.”<\/p>\n

\u201cWow, you have been busy Husband.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWatcher can you get everyone into the lecture hall so they can watch the broadcast.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI have the mechanicals rounding up everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

All the members of the cave watched the broadcast. Congratulations were said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you, listen all this means is that you have a ringside seat to the war that is coming. If there is anyone here that does not want to be here. Now is the time to say so. You can be taken to another place or time. If you stay you will become my staff, my advisers. There is no one out there I trust more than the people in this room excluding my wife of course.”<\/p>\n

\u201cGood save Husband.\u201d Everyone in the room laughed including the Aliens amongst them.<\/p>\n

\u201cLarry King will be coming to work with us he will become our liaison to the press.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf anyone needs a ride out to this timeline now would be the time to say so.”<\/p>\n

\u201cLorelei is there any dessert out in the cafeteria?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes First Leader,\u201d Lorelei said smiling.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs my first official act, I declare now coffee time.\u201d<\/p>\n

The First Leader and his staff all went into the cafeteria and had coffee and some carrot cake. Cristian’s favourite. It was good to be married to the cook and first lady.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere do we start Cristian?\u201d asked Albert.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the beginning Albert. We have just united the planet and entered into a war. We need to get ready.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cRaguel, Uriel can you design a ship that can be mass-produced that will allow travel only into this solar system. We will need armament, communication and shields. We will need to protect and patrol our section of the universe. I don’t think the world is ready for time travel.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cProbably wise. We can provide the blueprints for a fighter that will do the job.”<\/p>\n

\u201cExcellent I will need a presentation of the fighter for tomorrow.”<\/p>\n

Cristian and Lorelei headed out to pick up Larry. With Larry aboard Cristian Mentioned that he had a stop to make.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere are we going Cristian.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTo talk to the CEO of the Hilton Chain.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWatcher can you get Chris on the phone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cChris this is Cristian Wolf.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGet serious who is this how did you get this number?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cChris you should put a robe on. We are outside on your balcony. Please get dressed I have a small request for you.”<\/p>\n

\u201cI have a need for one of your hotels for an event. Sarasota Springs tomorrow night. Plus all the rooms.”<\/p>\n

\u201cAnything can be arranged Cristian.\u201d<\/p>\n
