The Dimension Travel Trilogy: A Three Part Science Fiction And Fantasy Novel

by Pidoriano, Joseph

  However, you left me with no choice.” I threw the first punch. The punch made him flinch.

  I said to him, “Ha, made ya’

  flinch.” He answered, “Hey, look

  a hawk is behind you.” I looked, and I saw a hawk. However, it was a fake. He pulled out his Gphone Mini 5 and made a hologram of the hawk and I ran after the hawk. I yelled to the hawk that looked like it was flying, “Come back here you crazy, primitive creature!”

  The hawk started flying faster as I was running faster after it and then the hawk hologram ended up in Iron Steel. Of course, I didn’t know that it was Iron Steel, because there was no body there.

  All I heard was a snickering laugh in the distance, and I didn’t know where it had come from.

  I said to myself, “If Tom Jackson was sleeping and completely knocked out cold by Iron Steel’s fists of fury punch then it must be Iron Steel.” I continued, “Where are you Mr. Steel?” He started getting angry and angrier.

  You can see he was getting angrier because a patch of red smoke in this dull blank colored universe was appearing, and Iron Steel said in an angry and condescending tone. Where are you?” He started to turn into a dragon. The dragon head started to emerge from the red smoke and the red smoke was turning blue.

  This wasn’t your typical dragon. Followed by his head, a seventeen foot long neck appeared and then a snake like body emerged. This dragon, however, never breathed fire. In fact, this dragon shot water. I asked the dragon, “What is your name?”

  This beast-like dragon said, “My name is Iron Steel”

  as a half

  of a ton of water started to spill from his mouth. He said, “Why are you asking me the same name that you asked earlier?” I said, “Oh talk about de-ja-vu.” He said, “Okay, stay in this dimension with me and I will give you some mercy by not eating you.” I said in a valiant way “Never!”

  He said “do you want to mess with me? Are you

  asking for trouble?” I said sarcastically, “Oh no Sir!” He roared, “NEVER CALL ME SIR!” Instead of breathing fire like a typical dragon could, Iron Steel, as a dragon, expelled water in place of fire.

  And he even wasn’t “normal” with this feat as when he tried no water came out. Instead, he fired water balloons! He took aim at me. His first water balloon missed.

  I said in a smart aleck manner, “What are you some sort of circus style, dunk tank of a dragon? What do you belong in a circus?

  Your name is ‘Circus Steel’?” and I started laughing. Iron Steel then fired his second balloon. This time I caught the balloon, and I threw it back at Iron Steel and somehow, even though I was fifty years old and had not thrown anything in some years, I had the best aim.

  I hit his head, to be more accurate, I hit his ear. The balloon caused the Gphone to fall - and his Gphone was falling very slowly.

  After all this time the Gphone ended up in my hands now. I said to Iron Steel in the form of a pretentious question, “Who is the winner now? ‘Winner, Winner, Winner, Me, me, me.’ The water balloon slid down his pointed dragon ear and popped, and the water ended up on his eye. It was a whole splash of slightly-above-freezing point water.

  Now the water balloon ended up on the tip of his ear, emptied of its water, its remnants just hanging there. It looked ridiculous. Since big, savagery beast-like creatures have very little to no patience what so ever, he got super angry and super annoyed.

  He “blew a fuse”

  so to speak and his brain started sparking. I

  shouted to Iron Steel, “Hey! Your brain is sparking, almost as if there was a robot in there!” The dragon closed its mouth and the skin of the dragon started to rip apart. Then all of a sudden, a red hand had emerged. This red hand was in the shape of a fist. It must be, “IRON

  STEEL.” I said to him, “Are you Mr. Steel?”

  His face emerged and, he said “Yes! Of course I am you idiot!” It took two long minutes to figure out the Gphone and the fifty gadgets that came with it. There was a button that said, “Teleportation Device.”

  The Gphone talked as I hit the button requesting

  teleportation. Iron Steel was getting closer.

  The

  Gphone said, “Please select which machine you would like to travel in, here are three machines: the SPARK Cycle, The Light Speed Cycle, or the Super Max Speed Cycle.” I said, to the Gphone in exasperation, “Just give me the best cycle that is available.” The Gphone said, “Light Speed Cycle it is.” All of a sudden, a Light Speed Cycle appeared. This Light Speed Cycle was eight feet long and four feet wide. It had a singular neon light wrapping around the whole cycle, and to get in you would have to jump into the cycle in a laying down position. It had the ability to converse with its “driver” like it was not an inanimate object but had feelings and emotions.

  As Iron Steel approached the ground from the robotic dragon, I jumped into the Light Speed Cycle. Iron Steel knocked on the tinted windows. I said to him, “See ya’ Sucker” and I had twenty second century glasses on.

  The inside of the Light Speed Cycle was another thing full of gadgets. It said it had one thousand different ones. The first gadget was the ejection button which would send somebody into the orbit of this cycle. The second was cruise control. The third was a “rock the chair” gadget which would cause the chair to start shaking. The fourth gadget was the programming gadget which would program the thing to work when somebody would initially receive this Light Speed Cycle. This was the one I needed. And I needed it now. The fifth gadget was the pedal and there were many more, but the first thing I did was to program this Light Speed Cycle. The Light Speed Cycle said, “Hi Master, what is your name?”

  I said, “Master Joseph.”

  It said, “Okay, Master Joseph, Please

  Pin Point your destination.” I pin pointed the destination as 100

  Golden Lane, California, New York, the Corporate Headquarters of the Cascade Resort Company. The Light Speed Cycle repeated, “100

  Golden Lane, California, New York it is master?” I replied “Yes.”

  Then, the Light Speed Cycle said we are on our way.

  “Vroom Vroom Vroom”

  the engine of the light speed cycle

  made a very earthly sound for such a twenty-second century vehicle.

  In front of us an orb opened up and the light speed cycle entered.

  The orb was a star field that read the names of the different universes we’d be driving past at speeds of up to five hundred million miles per hour. The first universe that we passed was the Alien Universe. The planets of Starmos were in the Alien Universe. Starmos was the land that was strictly inhabited by aliens and only aliens were allowed in that land. Legend has it that a human had entered the land and was immediately turned into an alien.

  As we were traveling the radio started to play and I asked the Light Speed Cycle, “What kind of music is this?”

  The Light Speed

  Cycle said, “Oh, this is alien music.” I said to the Light Speed Cycle, “Sounds quite boring. Do they have any other music?” The Light Speed cycle said, “No, they don’t have any other music. Shush. Don’t say that their music is boring, you know why? They might hear. They are very strict and they will eat you in a nick of a millisecond, and you won’t know where you ever will end up.” I said, “Sounds dangerous!”

  We began going faster and we suddenly heard a siren noise in the background. This siren was the Starmos Saucer Guys. They were alien traffic cops. The Starmos Saucer guys pulled the Light Speed Cycle over and said, “Who-are- you?”

  The Light Speed Cycle Said, “We are humans from another universe, and who are you?” The alien responded in what we on earth would consider a typical alien tone, “We-are-the-Starmos-SaucerGuys. Tell-your- driver-to-get-out-of-the-vehicle?” It sounded just like the aliens in the old sci-fi movies of the twentieth century. The Light Speed Cycle answered, “Never. You can’t have him.” The Alien demanded “Get-out-now!”

  The Light Spee
d Cycle said, “Tell you what, my driver can stay in the vehicle and I could follow your Saucer through your city to the Starmos National Federation Station. The alien started to have a nicer attitude and the alien said, “Fine-Then, you-can-come. And-he-can-stay-in-his-vehicle.” The Light Speed Cycle said, “Phew! What a relief.” I acted very brave as if I knew where I was.

  I said to the Light Speed Cycle, “Okay here is a plan. When we are heading through Starmos City, this is what we will do, we will follow the alien through the city and drop a recording device on top of his vehicle, and finally, when no body is looking, we will travel back outside the city and reopen the portal back to the Light Speed Tunnel.

  Are you taking the affirmative stance on the plan or an oppositional stance on the plan?”

  The Light Speed Cycle answered, “Affirmative.”

  I excitedly

  said, “Terrific! Brilliant! Thank you, thank you, thank you!” The Light Speed Cycle, replied, although a bit surprised at my exuberance, “Okay. You’re welcome.”

  Chapter Three: Starmos City, Light Speed Cycle’s Story, Flight from the Aliens

  As we head through the open orb that says “Welcome to Starmos City” the Starmos Saucer Guys in their flying saucer turn back to see if we are indeed following them. Now, we are wondering where we are going. We don’t know what Starmos City is, at least I don’t, and am wondering if this really is an alien inhabited world.

  Have you ever seen in the movies about aliens inhabiting Mars? Well, this is what Starmos City looks like.

  I have to describe the Alien Flying Saucer. This flying saucer is a saucer that is about 20 feet in diameter. It had all futuristic technologies but many communication technologies, where the particular vehicle can talk back to you, similar to this Light Speed Cycle. It had many futuristic looking buttons that if you would press one it would also make a certain noise for a particular communication.

  You see, you would have to speak the “Alien Language”

  which was a button code; they even had buttons they would press to see what their moods would be. These two traffic officer aliens are named Bar and Sar. Bar and Sar are twins who chose the same job because, I came to learn, the alien family lives with each other from generation to generation to generation and beyond. Their alien family lives in the same house hold. However, you will find that later in the story. I said to the Light Speed Cycle, “Say, Do you happen to know where these aliens are taking us to?”

  The Light Speed Cycle, answered, “Why no, I don’t know.

  Why? do you know?” I said to the Light Speed Cycle, “Silly, why would I ask you if I knew? Granted, I only know you for five to ten minutes, but I think you should know? After all, you are made of sand.” The Light Speed Cycle answered, “What do you mean that I am made of Sand? I have a computer built into me that is able to have control all of my movements and my speed. Even though I happen to have the ability to control where my vehicle goes and comes to, and have a mach 1,000 engine, I am far from made of sand.”

  Then, I answered to him, “You are definitely made of San.”

  The Light Speed Cycle says, “How on earth am I made of sand when I have all of this innovative technology built into me? How am I made of some useless earthly element? How in the multiple universes can this possibly be?”

  I answered, “Your computer chips are made of sand. You could find this out if you really look back into American History way before your time was even a thought in someone’s mind. In the 1960’s to the 1980’s, computers were being built and in order for computers to perform the tasks that they do and to store as much memory as they should, they had computer chips. The basic building block of the chips was sand. These computer chips would be the guide that would give the computer the capacity of innovation that it is able to have and the tasks that it is able to perform.”

  The Light Speed Cycle replied, “Okay, you are just as brilliant as I am. I guess the latest computerized vehicles can be taught new things from their owners.” I answered, “Yup that is true. I guess you’re right.” I asked the Light Speed Cycle, “Hey, why are we sitting here viewing Starmos City when we are supposed to be following the aliens?”

  The Light Speed Cycle said, “Well, because we have stopped, they remained floating. Say listen, I don’t have much of a chance of hovering ‘round here. Besides, my hover gas tank is pretty low. Say, why don’t we just start driving and then the aliens will be following us.” I said, “Alright then, let’s get moving. Shall we?”

  The Light Speed Cycle replied, “I agree with you 100

  percent.” The Light Speed Cycle said, “Let’s go.” The Light Speed Cycle then just begun to move and we were on our way deeper into the alien city. Finally, we got shrunk to size for us to continue through the alien city.

  The alien city looked Superb and it looked like a far cry from our “home” city. In fact, as the hover craft approached the city, the buildings just looked like random blocks that just so happened to appear in a very pixilated sort of way. Just all of a sudden, as we were nearing into the city from five hundred feet away, the alien’s hovercraft behaved very haughty and cut right in front of us, causing us to tailgate their vehicle.

  I told the Light Speed Cycle, “Say, why don’t you honk your horn?” The Light Speed Cycle answered, “Hey, don’t say that, we are in a city of the unknown. At least you are in a city of the unknown world.” I replied, “Well, have you ever been here?” The Light Speed Cycle said, “Of course, I have been here. I used to live here.” I said to him, “Really, you used to live here.” as we were driving down a road below the hover crafts.

  The Light Speed Cycle answered, “Of course, I used to live here. In fact, I lived with the most wellknown alien in the history of aliens.” I asked, “Well, what is that alien’s name?” The Light Speed Cycle said, “his name is Cornelius Von Alien. Cornelius Von Alien was the richest and most powerful alien in the Universe of Aliens. As a matter a fact, he was the one who created this whole city!” I replied, “Well, how did Cornelius Von Alien create this whole city?”

  The Light Speed Cycle said, “Cornelius Von Alien created this whole city because he had the best technology according to legend.

  You see, Cornelius Von Alien used to live in Ford City and because the city went through a time of darkness, he decided to migrate to a much brighter city. He wanted a city that looked like a beautiful sunset all day. So, Cornelius Von Alien dropped an innovative box that he got from his old city. This box would fit in the palm of your hand or wait; it is the alien’s hand that this box would fit in. So, anyway back to the Cornelius Von Alien, Cornelius built the city of Starmos and he named it after his Dad, Starmos, because Starmos gave him the box that he knew would build this city.”

  I interrupted and asked, “How could a little box that could fit in the palm of a hand, an aliens hand, build a whole city?” The Light Speed Cycle continued as he was driving through the city, “Well, this little box was a very magical box. You see, Cornelius Von Alien did this: he threw this box down on to the sandy ground that you see in this Mars like city and this box expanded and started growing. Within five minutes an apartment building had emerged. Cornelius Von Alien moved into his pre-furnished apartment and then left the building to return to his old home in Ford City to announce about his new city.

  From there, he made his fellow aliens follow him to the other city.

  Well, it was just a single apartment building at the time. However, before he left the city of Ford, he told his fellow comrades to bring the small cubes that also have different programs in them. So, all of his friends left Ford City and went over to the land of Starmos. Finally, they arrived and Starmos City was a reality. Because there were too many aliens to live in the apartment building, the apartment building somehow grew magically, I guess that is the magic of aliens.”

  I asked this question, “Well how did this city get built up so much and become so massive?” Light Speed Cycle said, “Well, the city became a thriving, alien
like megalopolis because most of the aliens’ blocks were programmed for a business to open up. In fact, some were programmed for metals to be turned into liquids which would thus, be turned into putties and that is where I came into the picture.” I asked, “How? How did you come into the picture?”

  The Light Speed Cycle answered, “Well, you see, I was told by Cornelius Von Alien that I was needed because his hovercraft broke down. When, his hover craft broke down, he went to the metal putty making factory of Sir William Lienus of Alien County who made the metal putties at his factory in the Starmos Community.

  Cornelius Von Alien spent a fortune to get the metal putty and have it customized. Also, Cornelius had a specialty in artistic molding work.

  From 2030-2035, Cornelius worked on building a prototype contraption that would break the speed of light by 1,000 and take people into different dimensions in a heartbeat. So, gradually I was being built, and my base was being built. He built a very strong metallic base that would with stand any form of weather. I am stronger than an asteroid shower.”

  I was kind of amazed and said to the Light Speed Cycle, “Huh? You can with stand so much weight hitting your vehicle?” The Light Speed Cycle answered, “No. Duh! Of course I can withstand anything happening to my vehicle.” I asked, “Even a Tsunami?” He said in a laughing way, “Well, that is a breeze.” I said, “What do you mean that it is a breeze? Is a Tsunami worse than an asteroid shower?”

  The Light Speed Cycle said, “No it is not. It is minor compared to an asteroid shower. First of all, right now, you can’t even breathe if you left this vehicle. The reason why is there is no oxygen in the environment. The environment is made of all water.” I asked, “How come it is made of all water when the sky is an orange like color?”

  The Light Speed Cycle answered, if you had a breathing mask on you, you would’ve not felt any water. However, it is like breathing in water. Only fish can breathe in water, and aliens, and of course myself. So now getting back to how they built me, my frame was finished by 2032, and next my engine had to go in. So Cornelius Von Alien, went to the Mach 100 Engine Shop and asked his repair man of a friend, for a Mach 1000 Engine, and his friend only specialized in Mach 100 Engines. So it took his friend about six months to pull up a contraption to make from a fuser machine. He took ten of his Mach 100 Engines and placed them in the machines. Then the Mach 100
