    About this ebook

    It all began a long, long, time ago. Long before the Kings of England took their thrones and even further back through the sands of time than even the Roman Empire.

    The story of Felanishe began as far back in time as the imagination can travel, to a time when man had barely begun to live in caves. That is where this story began.

    Yet what happened in that time, and the powers that existed in that dim and very distant past, lay hidden, waiting for the right moment to be made known once again. And now as this story begins the moment has arrived. For now is the time when Felanishe breaks through from history to the present day.

    A lightning storm, a car boot sale and a boy recovering from a virus, all create the setting that allows Felanishe to enter the modern day world - but what are his intentions?

      Introduction

      It all began a long, long, time ago. Long before the Kings of England took their thrones and even further back through the sands of time than even the Roman Empire. The story of Felanishe began a long way back in time, back as far as the imagination can travel, to a time when man had barely begun to live in caves. That is where this story began. Yet what happened in that time, and the powers that existed in that dim and very distant past, lay hidden, waiting for the right moment to be made known once again. And now as this story begins the moment has arrived. For now is the time when Felanishe breaks through from history to the present day.

      Chapter 1 - The Storm

      In our present time, it all began one dark, stormy, Friday night. The air had been heavy all day and the weather forecasts had predicted thunder. As the evening passed, unseen above the dark, grey, clouds, a mighty pocket of trapped energy was gathering. Waiting for the moment of release the pocket swelled to bursting. Then, with the roar of several million volts, the energy was discharged, scything its way through the clouds. Searching almost in desperation for a contact, the energy raced towards the earth. In a moment it found its contact on the top of a house and discharged through the unfortunate aerial that had been selected.

      Inside the house, the Carters were watching a cartoon on the TV. It was not a particularly memorable cartoon but it did serve to distract the children from the storm that was brewing outside. As the lightning connected with the aerial the television imploded, the screen disappearing into a million tiny fragments of glass. In the same moment of time a blue flame glistened briefly from the supercharged energy that passed through the electronic equipment. In a split second the complex electronic circuit boards melted and before the glass of the tube had finished falling into the machine a strong, acrid, aroma began to fill the room.

      It took the Carter family some seconds to react to this unexpected intrusion. In those vital seconds, the circuit breakers that protect the home from electricity surges tripped. As they did so the whole house was plunged into an eerie state of darkness. In the moment of silence that followed the rain could be heard as it lashed against the windows of the house. And then, just as suddenly as the lightning had penetrated the house, so too the mighty roar of thunder slammed into the building making the windows rattle. As it did so, and because of the sudden darkness, the children began to cry.

      ‘George, what’s happened?’ The woman’s voice was clearly shaken.

      ‘I don’t know. It looks like we’ve been hit by the storm. Hang on, I’ll find a torch.’ The father left his chair and disappeared from the room for a moment. As he did so the two young children ran from the sofa to the chair in which their mother was sitting.

      After a minute or so the father re-entered the room. The light from the torch picked out the frightened youngsters and their mother who was trying to comfort them.

      ‘As I thought,’ he started as he entered the room. ‘We’ve been hit by the lightning. I think it’s just knocked out the circuit breakers. I’ll need a minute to check. Are you okay in here?’

      The acrid smell of the burned-out television filled the room and the youngest child was beginning to cough.

      ‘Yes, dear,’ the woman replied, ‘we’ll be all right. Now, children, Daddy will have the lights back on in a moment. Shush, Mark, it’s only a thunder storm.’

      George Carter left the room and made his way to the cupboard under the stairs. He opened the door and shone the torch at the fuse box. All the little circuit breakers had tripped and smoke was still spiralling from one of them. He reached out a hand and felt the box was warm.

      ‘Looks like we took quite a jolt,’ he called out loudly. ‘Everything’s gone. I’ll have to see what works for now, and then we’ll sort out the rest tomorrow.’

      He re-engaged the master switch. Inevitably, as all the separate circuits had
