Good point. I can t promise any of this will be easy. But remember
there are always unexpected consequences to about anything a
person or entity does. And in this case, the Gate Master never
considered that the Seconders might develop some unexpected mind
power, or that they would continue to increase that power with
subsequent passages.
By what factor does intelligence increase? I wondered.
His eyes looked away again. Obviously, there was still a lot he didn t
want to tell us. So far as I can glean, the part of the intelligence we re

dealing with doesn t have a clue yet that this is happening, he added,
ignoring my question.
Rita caught his evasion. There s a catch, she said with her usual
directness.
Messler laced his fingers together and sighed, then gazed at each of
us in turn. Finally he spoke. Yes, there s a catch. You re sitting here
listening to me talk and still thinking of me as human. I m not
anymore. I ve become something more and perhaps less than
human. It is very hard to put into mere words. Suffice to say that
much of what you believe to be the essential you your soul if you
want to think of it that way will be irrevocably changed. You won t
think the same way. You won t relate to each other the same way.
Now his green eyes were glowing with emerald flame. But his blazing
intensity frightened me. You will become as far removed from the
essence of what you are now as a pupa does when it becomes a
butterfly. But you will also become able to fly.
We will?
The thought belonged to me and to Rita, at the same time. Messler
was talking as if we had both agreed to jump through the gates again. I
hadn t agreed to anything, and I wasn t about to yet. Questions raced
through my mind. Would I still love Rita if we did what Messler
wanted us to? Would I still like to write? Would I want to read and re-
read my favorite books? The more I thought, the more I realized what
a plethora of pleasant things there were to being human.
Rita shared my thoughts, of course. She shook her head at Messler.
Couldn t we stop part way through the process and still be able to
help and yet still be human be ourselves?
Messler thought, then shrugged. It s possible I suppose, but not
likely. What you experience within the gate, once you are able to stay
there for even a few moments, will change you forever. By the time
you ve gone through the gate a few more times, you ll almost certainly
begin wanting to keep the kid from shoving the truck off the table or
perhaps deciding to hit it with a hammer to see if it will break. That s
how I felt and how the others I m in contact with felt. The ones who
made it, that is.
Uh oh. Another glitch.
Messler saw our expressions and nodded. Yes, some Seconders, or
Thirder or Fourthers don t come back. That s what happened to a

couple of Seconders the NSC experimented with after they were done
with Renfrow, and why they eventually stopped. I personally think the
process must be taken in slow steps, like I ve done. Also, there are two
areas where I have little or no data. One is from some foreign
countries where I suspect Seconders are being experimented on. And
I have no data at all on lovers who have become Seconders together
like you. For all I know you might go in an entirely new direction.
What makes a Seconder, anyway? Rita wanted to know. Have you
discovered that, at least?
For the first time Messler smiled as if something were really funny.
Yes, he said, and waited.
Well? I demanded.
He grinned. It is so obvious it took me several passages through the
gates to figure it out. Seconders become Seconders because they have
an inherent propensity for telepathy. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
