  Prologue

  It was a dark so deep one could believe oneself incorporeal, trapped in some dreadful limbo. It was also cold. An unfathomable cold capable of swallowing the heat of the sun. No not just a sun, all the suns ever created! He was but a wraith in this terrifying place. With all his being he yearned for escape from this desolation, to feel and touch light and warmth again. To come upon another living thing, any living thing! But all he could sense was emptiness. Again he wished as he had never wished before to be away from this place. But something kept drawing him ever onwards into the dark, into the emptiness. It was all consuming and it was hungry, very hungry! Hopeless like a child he closed his eyes hoping it would all disappear. But still onwards he was drawn by unseen forces.

  Suddenly he perceived a presence out there in the cold and dark! And his fear grew even greater, something he had not believed possible. For this thing was far worse than the emptiness that enveloped him. Ahead of him now appeared a hole blacker than the darkness, malevolent and ravenous. The blackness expanded in size filling his vision and with sudden realisation he saw that it was not a hole, it was a planet travelling through the emptiness of space. No sun wanted any association with this wretched place nor did any fellow planets desire its company. In isolation did this dark world travel through the desolate regions of space and the world embraced this solitude!

  The world was like the darkest deepest swamp one could imagine, still and lifeless on the surface, yet underneath a myriad of creatures slithering and writhing with an insatiable hunger in their never ending quest to tear each other limb from limb. Pity any creature foolhardy enough to enter into those dark depths be it accident or on purpose. A shiver of fear and disgust trickled down his spine. The creatures that lived on this dark world were the monsters that haunted people's dreams and they were turning their hungry eyes towards him. His very marrow turned to jelly at their gaze leaving him helpless. Again desperately he willed himself away from this abomination, but still he was drawn on. Whether he be ghost or not the creatures of this world seemed to sense him and he knew they waited impatiently to welcome him. No matter how much he struggled to break free still he was drawn ever closer to this nightmare.

  The planet impossibly large before his eyes had mountains and oceans he now realised. In some perverted way the place was similar to his own world. It had deep oceans with many continents and islands and mountains that reared up into its skies. But all these were immense in size compared to those of his planet for this world he realised was many times that of his own. He now also saw that the planet was not as dark as he had first imagined. Spots of light he spied for the first time, lights of varying sizes and brightness dotting the world. Looking closer he could see that some of those patches of light were from enormous volcanoes vomiting glowing rivers of molten lava. Whilst others were gigantic storms where lightening flashed and flickered across the skies as if some titanic battle was taking place. But strangest of all the lights were those created by the cities and towns. Which could only mean that there must intelligent life down there!

  So close now was he that he could clearly see the creatures that lived upon this world. They were of every shape and great in size. Leviathans, titans and behemoths were the names that leapt into his mind, dreaded monsters of ancient times. These creatures like their world were colossal in size armed with fangs, claws, horns and spikes that adorned scaled and armoured plated bodies. He watched transfixed a creature gigantic in size beyond all comparison, its head like that of some prehistoric crocodile. A forest of needle sharp javelin sized teeth sprouted from its long jaws, its red scaled body was eel like in shape from which numerous spider like limbs and fins grotesquely sprang out. At its end was a long powerful reptilian like tail. With a roar that shook the mountains the Leviathan, with a flick of its great tail sent a huge towering wave crashing against the shore where it smashed against the legs of a Behemoth which roared back in response. How he knew one a Leviathan and the other a Behemoth he knew not, he just knew they were! If he had thought the Leviathan monstrous in size the Behemoth was its match. Black in colour it had a feline like head with a bull shaped body, four deadly horns sprouted from its shoulders and two gigantic sabre teeth sprouted from the roof of its mouth. Its heavily muscled black body was supported by four sturdy legs each ending in a set of vicious claws, a thin whip like tail slashing at the air behind it. He watched as these two monsters challenged each other, one claiming dominion of the sea, the other the land.

  His attention was now drawn elsewhere, to another creature. It was much smaller than the two monsters he had just witnessed but still enormous in size when compared to him. Much like a spider did this new creature look, each of its eight legs over twenty feet in length that supported its corpulent grey body and much smaller head. On the top of its head a thousand unblinking black eyes watched the world while below its mandibled mouth opened and closed oozing poison. The spider like creature moved with surprising speed for its size. Forwards it darted then stopped remaining completely still. Then off it would dart again in a slightly different direction. On a zigzagging path went the beast for it was hunting! He watched as the creature caught up with its quarry. Its victim far smaller, looked almost human except that its skin gave off a golden glow. The enormous spider on seeing the human reared back on its hind legs spraying out what must have been some kind of web from the base of its abdomen. But the smaller human like creature was far too quick and easily avoided the sticky threads. The spider warily watched the smaller creature and started backing away. With sudden insight he realised that the spider had no intention of attacking this smaller being. In fact the spider was scared! But if the spider had hoped to be left alone it was mistaken. The smaller creature shot forwards like an arrow sword in hand. So fast was its strike that he did not clearly see what happened. But with a squeal of pain the spider shrank back one of its limbs now broken and useless. So now it was the spider who was the hunted one! The battle continued and with each attack the smaller creature made so another limb of the great spider would be broken or severed completely, until finally the great spider remained inert all its limbs broken. The stricken creature now mewled in fear and pain and he could not help but feel a pang of sympathy for the creatures plight. He watched as the smaller human like creature now swaggered up to the defeated spider and casually plunged its sword between the defeated creatures many eyes killing it instantly.

  He looked away from the pitiful scene glancing back over this dark world. It seemed to him that everywhere he looked there was a battle happening. A battle for food, dominance and power as creature fought creature in an orgy of blood and death. He knew that even the weakest of the creatures on this dark planet would be almost invincible if they were on his home world.

  The planet now thankfully released its hold on him passing him by and with considerable relief he watched as the world and its inhabitants flew on into the darkness. As he turned to watch the world pass so a myriad of multi coloured lights like diamonds lit up the emptiness. He looked at the lights with confusion then realised that they were stars, billions of stars and he knew now what he looked at was his very own galaxy, the Milky Way! Towards this the fast disappearing planet now sped. His sight was now drawn to where this dark world's destination and he saw that it was coursing towards a small yellow star and his heart began to hammer in his chest and a wordless scream formed in his throat. For he knew that small yellow star was the sun, his sun! The sun that shone over the world he called home. Worse he now knew that the creatures of this nightmare world did not
look at him with covetous eyes, no they were looking with hunger at the world he called home!

  Aiden awoke with a start wiping the sweat from his face. Looking across at the alarm clock he gave a groan, it was only 6.30 in the morning and it was Saturday! He had hoped to have a good lie in today to catch up on some much needed sleep. Aiden laid his head back against the pillow squeezing his eyes shut. However as soon as did images of the demon planet came back to haunt him making him open his eyes once more. He had been having the same nightmare over the last three weeks now and this one was the most vivid yet. Aiden was beginning to wonder if was having some kind of nervous breakdown. Was it something to do with breaking up with his girl friend he wondered. But then he had been the one who did the breaking up! Well he had actually just stopped taking her calls, replying to her texts or answering the door. Luckily Sally was too proud to actually come round and make a scene thank God! Anyway Sally quickly got the message and had stopped trying to contact him. He was fairly sure she was seeing someone else in any case! But still maybe he should have been a bit stronger, he should have been straight with Sally and told her to her face why he was unhappy. Maybe he was having these dreams because he felt guilty about how he had broken up with her. Aiden shook his head he somehow doubted Sally was the cause of these dreams. Aiden sat up with a sigh there was no way he would get back to sleep now. Kicking his legs out of bed he got up and made his way to the bathroom.

  Aiden rented a small second floor flat in London. It had two bedrooms a bathroom and a living room / kitchen and it cost a small fortune to rent. But it was also close to where he worked and the night life was pretty good. Although he was starting to feel his age more and more lately. Or was it that the kids going out were getting younger and younger. These days he seemed to drift towards the quieter bars and pubs, he was approaching 37 after all and according to some that was already over the hill. One thought that did cheer Aiden was that it wasn't so cold in the mornings now spring was here! He switched on the bathroom light, turned on the cold water tap and splashed the freezing water on his face stinging him awake with a gasp. Looking in the mirror he studied his face looking for signs of ageing. But apart from a few wrinkles around his eyes he looked pretty much how he always had. A mop of black hair on top of a fairly handsome face, at least that's what he thought! Dark eyes not bloodshot! A nice smile so people said and he his body was still lean though he did have the makings of a paunch. He still looked OK Aiden thought to himself. But still it wouldn't be long before he was forty and would it be all downhill after that! He squeezed some paste onto his tooth brush and started brushing his teeth. With thoughts of age still in his mind Aiden showered and dressed wandered into the kitchen to make his first of many cups of tea for the day.

  Aiden’s galley kitchen was pretty basic taking up less than a quarter of the main room the remainder of which acted as his living room with a breakfast bar acting as the boundary between the two. The kitchen had a small sink, a cooker with an oven underneath. There was also a built in fridge freezer together with a few cabinets on the wall for plates and tins. As for the living room well most would have guessed that it belonged to a bachelor for there was very little in the way of decorations or photos. All there was an old sofa and two worn chairs between which an old stained coffee table sat. A TV against the far wall completed the scene. Aiden grabbed the TV remote off the breakfast bar and turned on the television. He then grabbed his freshly brewed tea and made his way over to the sofa sitting down. As usual the TV reception was poor. It had been like that for some time now and it looked like it was getting worse. Aiden using the remote flicked the TV straight over to the news channels as there would be nothing else on at this time in the morning and he lay back against the sofa.

  The news was the same as usual. Another bomb had exploded in a market somewhere on the other side of the world killing and injuring dozens of men women and children. Aiden knew that he should be more shocked and angry than he was but in truth he, just like most others he suspected accepted this kind of thing with an emotional detachment. The TV newscaster then turned her attention to more domestic matters reporting about yet another gang fight in London which had resulted in a small 6 year old girl being caught in the crossfire, the little girl was now critically ill in hospital, the police were still searching for the culprits. Why did they have to use guns Aiden thought, and how on Earth did they manage to get guns in the first place he wondered! The News Readers next story was about reports of the demonstrations in London last night that had turned violent. She said that thousands of pounds worth of damage had been done to local businesses. Both the police and organisers blamed a small minority of trouble makers for the damage. So it continued it's a wonder how we keep going as a race Aiden shook his head.

  Aiden's mind switched off from the news his thoughts drifting back to the strange dream he had been having. He wondered if maybe stress was the cause. So what was he worried about, was it his job? Although boring it was at least secure giving him enough money to get by and the guys at his office were a nice enough bunch. Maybe it was to do with him being an orphan Aiden thought not for the first time. Was having no family the cause Aiden wondered? Maybe that was it! Aiden again shook his head, he had got over that years ago. Besides from what he could gather from some of his own friends, their families seemed to be more trouble than they were worth. So he should count himself lucky!

  Aiden noticed his laptop on the coffee table and decided a search the internet might find some clues about his strange dream. His first search quite surprisingly revealed that a lot of other people had been having the same dream as him, a dream about a large planet. Looking up what they said he found the usual odd ball views about aliens and secret government experiments that caused these dreams. But as he kept searching he found that there was a common thread. Many people said that this dream was about a planet that actually existed, planet X. They said it was some sort of brown dwarf whatever that meant! And that this planet orbited the solar system every thousand years or more. Curiosity getting the better of him he looked up this planet X and discovered that the Sumerians the oldest known civilisation on Earth supposedly knew of it. Aiden then did a search on ‘Planet X and the Sumerians’ and saw page after page of results. The Sumerians called this planet Nibiru, according to translations they believed that this planet passed by the earth every 3600 years and it was inhabited by a race of beings called the Anunnaki. These beings were far more advanced than mankind and according to the Sumerians these Anunnaki needed the gold which was on Earth. The Sumerians texts also went on to say that the return of Nibiru or Planet X would spell the end of the world and the start of a new age. As Aiden continued searching he found that the Babylonians had similar legends but they called the planet Marduk and it seemed there were many other old civilizations and cultures that believed in this mysterious planet as well. Having nothing better to do that day and his curiosity piqued Aiden decided he would pay a visit to the library to see what more he could find out.

  It was midday by the time Aiden got to the li
brary where he found himself gazing at row upon row of books about ancient cultures and civilisations. He then found a sub section on ancient myths and religions and started looking randomly at some of the books on display. The books covered a whole range of topics from American Indian beliefs to Mayan Legends, with of course plenty on Greek mythology. Aiden suddenly felt as if he were being watched and looking up was surprised to see a beautiful women staring at him intently. She looked like she had stepped straight out of mount Olympus with a classical face that was beautiful yet strong, a straight nose, perfect mouth and deep green eyes that seemed to swallow him body and soul. Her golden hair was fastened tightly in a bun which gave her a bit of a school teacher look but she was still beautiful even with that! She looked like one of those classical Greek statues come to life.

  ‘Hello’ the goddess said smiling, ‘can I help you at all?’

  ‘Errrrrm... Just after something on ancient myths I guess’ Aiden stuttered feeling himself blush.

  ‘Well that’s a big area is there anything more specific you are after?’ the goddess asked smiling once more at him.

  ‘Well errr, well I am looking for information on errr, well it’s some kind of lost planet sort of thing’ Aiden stuttered.

  ‘Lost planet?’ the woman replied raising an eyebrow

  ‘Errrm’ Aiden could feel himself getting even redder ‘Well yes its some kind of myth about a planet that orbits the sun every 3000 years or something like that’ Aiden shrugged his shoulders trying to act as if it was not really that important. He really did not want to make himself look stupid in front of this woman. ‘Something to do with the Sumerians I think, planet X they call it!’ he added quickly.

  ‘Ah yes the Sumerians one of the first human civilizations. I believe that the planet you are talking about was referred to by them as Nibiru.’
