For 30 centuries, the Egyptians were the preeminent power in the world. Most people would agree, a civilization that ancient couldn't possibly have the knowledge and abilities of our modern world. However, with today's discovery, six statues buried in the middle of the desert, it's calling all of that into question. Three of the statues were of human Egyptians, looking at what looks like a computer tablet, connected to the head of the group leader. The leader is sending the information telepathically to the other two humans. About 100 yards away, they found another three statues that look like aliens, big bug-like eyes, long arms, and skinny fingers. They, too, were looking at a tablet and exchanging information telepathically. The statues were found completely by accident; a space satellite initially designed to map the ocean floor was accidentally left on as the satellite passed these humongous objects buried in the sand. But what happened to this technology? What type of power source do they use? And do modern humans possess the ability of telekinesis? One researcher, Martin Robinson, sent to explore the site, had some theories he'd like to explore, but officials at the site would not allow researchers to touch or manipulate the items; they could only inspect them. Even inspection was fascinating, but after the site had been open for about a month, it was announced that it was closing and would not allow any researchers to the site anymore. On the last day that researchers would be allowed at the site, Martin was convinced that a necklace around the Egyptians leader's neck was playing a major role in using the technology. He even made a 3D printed replica to swap out, but security was intense, and he never had the opportunity to get within ten feet of the statues. As the researchers were being escorted from the site on the last day, another team of researchers had the same idea as Martin and tried to steal the necklace. One thief almost made it to the tunnel leading out of the excavation site but was tackled by security. Their actions would land them five years in prison. Regardless, when the thief was tackled, the necklace was dislodged and landed right at Martin's feet. With the replica unused in his backpack, he quickly made the switch. As security arrived, they screamed not to touch anything, and Martin and others put their hands up. The replica was picked up and returned to the statue. It's been three months since Martin gained access to the necklace, and despite running various tests, there is no sign that it does anything at all. He submerged it underwater, added electrical current, wore it around his neck, and took X-ray/MRI/PET scans. He even took the necklace to the desert, above where the statues were; in the cold, he waited hours for nothing to happen. It wasn't long after that Martin heard that they discovered the replica; figuring it was only a matter of time before they connected the dots, he started to work on the necklace day and night. He usually locks the necklace up at night before going to sleep, but one night he worked through the night and fell asleep with the necklace on his desk. When he awoke in the morning, his five-year-old daughter was wearing it and moving objects around the room. Chairs went flying, even objects, as big as a couch, were sent flying into walls. Martin dodged some debris and eventually got the necklace off his daughter. When asked how she got all those things to move with her mind, she said that she wasn't thinking of anything and a man appeared, "he was silly, daddy, he had the face of a doggy, big ears like Millie." Millie was their German Shepard, with ears like a jackal, or the Egyptian God of the underworld, Anubis. Being a scholar in Egyptian dynastic rituals, Martin knew that Anubis was associated deeply with embalming. To say the prayer of Anubis, you must clear your mind in a meditation ritual. Martin sent his daughter upstairs to his wife and started what he knew about Anubis meditation with the necklace. He had to clear his mind, like a child, with no complex thoughts. After ten minutes, Martin could see all of the thoughts and visions from Egyptian time. Those statues were of aliens who worked in solidarity with the Egyptian people for over 100 years. But in 2975 BC, the Egyptians and the aliens disagreed on major tenets of religion, and the Egyptians attacked their friends in the middle of the night, casting them out of Egypt. The aliens vowed to return with an army and wipe the humans out. Martin could see it all, science, technology, and even the star system the aliens originated. Once returning from his trance, Martin performed some calculations, and it would take the aliens approximately five-thousand years to travel to their planet and back, given the speed and schematics of their ship. They would be arriving in 2025. Martin did not know what to do with this information, was it real? The doorbell rings, Martin sees on the monitor; the police ane here to get the necklace and arrest him for theft.
