Final Scene
Alternate Earth, Secret Headquarters of the KLF
Spasm enters his bedroom and closes the door behind him. Once he locks the door, the old man straightens and his frail body seems to take on a new vigor. He strides across the room to his dresser. He presses a switch on the back of the dresser and suddenly the mirror before him shines with a blue light.
The light in the mirror coalesces into the image of a handsome lady with unruly hair of deep brown, worn collar length with a light fringe. Her few gray hairs indicate a more mature age. She looks at the old man from behind large translucent framed glasses.
“Was the package delivered?” she asks.
“Yes Madam, I placed it in his hand myself. He was reading the information as I left him,” the old man answers. “Did they all make it back home safely?”
“There were some minor problems because we had to hold the gate open longer for them, but they are all home safe and sound. Your counterpart reported shortly after they arrived.”
“I’m glad of that. They are good people.”
“Yes, they are, as are those you are watching over. Keep an eye on them, my friend. They are the last hope our world has, but the new information should prove to be a powerful tool. It was the whole reason we had for delivering the other world’s Mr. Dove to you. Let’s hope they use it wisely.”
“Madam, I will make sure of it,” the old man answered with a crafty smile.
