Trifecta: Womb to Let

Trifecta: Week Eighty-Nine

This week's challenge is to write 33 to 333 words using the following definition of the word WEAK:  not factually grounded or logically presented.


This segment of Blind Obedience completes the background of the covert program Firefly, begun by the CIA, in which Elias, a military officer recruited at the inception of the program, has been trained to implement the program's guidelines on his soon-to-be-created "asset". Previous segments of this story can be found here:

The training manual to raise a generation of “designer operatives” complete, Elias impregnated his wife. As soon as it was known she was pregnant, the fertilized egg that would be his child was inseminated into the surrogate. The underground had its own supply of “slaves”: children, teens, adults who were not missed by society. They were gathered from orphanages in places of war or where an agreement was made for financial gain, from prisons, the terminally ill, street children, the homeless, those born into cults whose births were never registered. The healthy women were kept to be bred and used as surrogates. They were property of the governments who held them. The ones not suitable for other purposes were used to traumatize those who were multiple or becoming multiple.

Witnessing the horrific torture and deaths of such people became seared into the young minds. At the moment of peak terror, the programming messages and signals for the purpose of the particular personality called out for the trauma would begin. Trauma, ritual abuse, and scientific precision along with training went hand in hand. One did not work without the other. Horrific trauma was essential to a well engineered multiple. 

While other mind control programs were proving fruitless, nothing was weak about the plan to develop the children of Firefly to be unwitting and perfectly mind controlled adults.

Trifecta: Week Eighty-Eight

For this week's Trifecta challenge we are to write 33 to 333 words using the following definition of the word BAND:  to gather together : unite.


This is a continuation of the covert government program where Elias, a military officer, is deeply entrenched in keeping secrets, including his "daughter" who is not his own flesh and blood. She is property of the government. Previous segments of this story can be read here:

Each personality created for a child had been trained for a specific job either for the cult scenarios, or highly specialized knowledge to be a young astronaut, assassin, courier and numerous other government-designated purposes. Elias was not one of the respected neuroscientists who knew the brain and how to program the various entities of a young mind. Jack Leber had carefully laid out the personality matrices for different undercover purposes. 

Because Emma, his royalty-hidden “daughter”, was to be a much needed part of that world, Elias greatly resented her higher purpose and the fact that he was relegated to a necessary but not well regarded member of the secret operatives. His skills in torture were prized and chronicled as part of the darkest secret—the manual used worldwide to create the next generation of blindly obedient children into adulthood who could be used on cue for any activity for which they were trained with no memory of having done so. Yet his covert task did not allow him to band with the others in terms of importance.

Even at a young age, the children had purposes that far exceeded their original purpose. One could make a young child swallow gems and call out a loving part who believed the abuser to be a father figure and easily transport the cache to another state or country. Drugs could be hidden in children’s toys with no one thinking twice. The child returning home had no memory of the event and the spouse and siblings would have all been trained to forget any missing time. All seemed normal to each other within the family system, except that it was a complete fabrication.

Trifecta: Blind Obedience (4)

Trifecta: Week Eighty-Six

This week's challenge is to write 33 to 333 words using the definition of CRACK:  a)  a narrow break : fissure ; b)  a narrow opening —used figuratively in phrases like fall through the cracks to describe one that has been improperly or inadvertently ignored or left out.


This is the fourth installment of Blind Obedience which is fictionalized history based, in part, on actual government programs involving children and pieced together through declassified documents. The previous segments can be read here.

Wernher Von Braun (suit)

While anyone looking at the country’s Cold War would see the US versus the Soviet Union, far beneath, in the layer of Firefly, existed a drastically different agenda. The Federal Reserve, which began in the 1920s, and the World Bank which began in 1944, held the foresight of the wealthiest of the wealthy (tying back to royal bloodlines) dominating the world, known in whispered circles as The New World Order. Part of that Orwellian state included not only mind control of their subjects but cooperation of the world’s wealthiest including the upper class in the Soviet Union. At that deep hidden level, for many decades, the worldwide elite manipulated public perception of their activities while steadily moving forward. Priority one was to save themselves from their own man made evil, which was part and parcel of the greater doctrine.

Both Russia and the US had secret plans to send an entourage to space to colonize the moon in the event of imminent nuclear annihilation. Wernher von Braun, an Operation Paperclip Nazi, was first placed with the US Army working on missiles and worked his way up to director of NASA. All puzzle pieces were fitting nicely into place—mainstreamed criminal Nazi’s fully embraced by the US thanks to propaganda.

Elias seethed at knowing he was training others to create the genetically engineered offspring to be the new mind controlled generation who would colonize space with a select few leaders and scientists. His “daughter”, one of the “chosen”, would potentially survive a nuclear holocaust while he perished. It made him hate her even more. He did his job well of maintaining her fear and terrorizing her subconsciously to keep her personalities in tact. He despised that he had to be mindful of never allowing his thin veneer of restraint to crack. His assigned asset was crucial to the program and ending her life would end his career and possibly his life as well.

Trifecta: Week Eighty-Five

 


This week's challenge is to write 33 to 333 words using the following definition of the word FLY:  a ) to move, pass, or spread quickly ; b) to be moved with sudden extreme emotion ; c) to seem to pass quickly .

My entry is the beginning of possibly a novel with fact and fiction mixed together. Some names are real while others are not because of the need to fictionalize details. The program MK-ULTRA was indeed real.

Elias knew he wanted to kill from an early age. Even when his parents saw they could no longer have pets, he found animals to torture in secret. It was with great pleasure he signed the contract that turned his life over to the military. Extraordinary timing. The war had ended not long before and the CIA just came into its own after having been the Office of Strategic Services. British MI-6 officers had aided in the transition.

Psychiatrists had devised a questionnaire (unbeknown to Elias) to target sociopaths. He had passed with flying colors and, even though he was not a college graduate, somehow he had been drafted into officer training school under the auspices of the new CIA for a secret program. He got his license to kill just prior to his first assignment, Korea, before his 20th birthday.

According to plan, he married before his departure. He would not reunite with his bride until after his tour of duty for a year in Korea instructing Korean soldiers how to torture and kill. How he thrived on torture. His wife joined him at his next assignment in Japan. Once again he became involved in Japanese civil affairs where it was to US advantage for one side to win. Japan was also where his first child was born. He had already been trained to condition his wife to obey orders and sometimes hypnotize her to forget things she had seen or heard. That was crucial to his life in the underworld as a spy sanctioned by the secret level of the government. To his wife, time would just fly by when her baby daughter was taken for nefarious purposes. Her mind simply closed the time gaps.

In the beginning of the Cold War, US military was highly interested in mind control, especially having soldiers follow orders without question or memory. And so the behavioral engineering experiments began, and not just on the soldiers. The program known as MK-ULTRA was underway.

Jacob was livid being trapped in a windowless room with two strong guards outside the one door. He had only hammered one nail into the body’s foot. The nail was just the beginning, but he was dragged from behind and thrown into solitary confinement.

Jody slowly became aware she was at the emergency room. She focused on the moving lips of the nurse who was speaking to her but sound hadn’t kicked in yet. What now she wondered.

“Do you understand?” asked the nurse.

“Ummm. I’m sorry. I must have zoned out. Can you repeat what you said?”

“How much did you miss?" she asked clearly annoyed.

“All of it?” Jody cringed. She hated when she came in on the middle of something. “Why am I here?”

After a big sigh, the nurse began again speaking loudly and slowly.

“I can hear just fine. I just missed it.” How she hated explaining herself. Was there any way she could avoid saying the dreaded words this time? It was then she felt the pain in her left foot. She nearly passed out when she saw the doctor stitching it up. “What happened?” she shouted in a near panic.

The doctor waved the nurse away seeing her lack of patience and began to speak calmly. “Somehow you drove yourself here and walked in with a rusty nail sticking out of the top of your foot. You are very lucky it missed a major artery. We gave you a tetanus shot. But we still don’t know how you managed to get a nail in the top of your foot. You must have been in shock all this time.”

Jody scanned her mind to find what she last remembered. She was angry at work at her condescending boss after she had just completed the project on time and under budget. She didn’t remember driving home. Melanie must have driven her. But she knew Jacob had driven the nail into her foot. Having multiple personalities sucked.

Trifecta: Close Encounters (6)

Trifecta: Week Eighty

Use the word FREAK with the following meaning from among its various meanings: one that is markedly unusual or abnormal. Write between 33 and 333 words.

While having the close encounter with her inner wisdom was amazing, Libby also felt like a freak. Who could she tell about her experience without feeling and being deemed crazy? And what did it mean now that she had connected to this part of herself? She didn’t want to call Elise again. They hadn’t been friends. Elise had been her intuition group facilitator. It felt as if she would be taking advantage of her continuing to ask questions.

Libby hadn’t really made any new friends since relocating to Boston, although she found several friendly people at work. Maybe it was time to initiate a test drive for a new out-of-office friend. The clouds of thoughts swirled through her head just as she arrived at her office building. Walking inside balancing her briefcase with her Starbucks coffee, she squeezed into the elevator dutifully looking up at the numbers avoiding all eye contact as elevator protocol requires.

“Pie,” she heard in her mind as she stepped out of the elevator. She shook her head as if flipping her hair back thinking inside, “Not now…I have to focus.” Libby felt annoyed and wondered if she could close the door she had opened. Besides, what the heck was that supposed to mean?

Settling into her office, Libby saw Becca pass by waving, her first choice for new best friend. Quickly Libby motioned for Becca to come into her office. They were peers and often collaborated on assignments. They both laughed at the same things. She had a quiet unpretentious way about her that put Libby at ease.

Becca walked in questioningly and Libby offered her a seat. “I’ve been in Boston nearly six months and still don’t know this city. I take the train to and from Melrose and hide out there. Any chance you’d like to get together and do something this weekend?”

“Sure,” said Becca unhesitatingly. “I'd love to see that movie, Life of Pi. What about you?”
