THE CLIMAX OF MY BOOK
In a dramatic turn of events yesterday, the crew of the exploratory vessel, The Odyssey, reported
they have found the crucial step needed to free themselves from the ongoing Suffesian threat. After days
of escalating tension, the group finally realized what was required to secure their return home and
potentially save Earth in the process. The breakthrough came when the team located a mysterious
machine believed to be responsible for rendering the planet’s inhabitants unusually lethargic. It was
responsible for controlling the people of Suffes, but also the ray which has been stealing minds here on
Earth.
Lead analysts Helen and Karen figured out what was really wrong with the Suffesians. Karen was
the first to identify the anomaly, declaring, “That’s it! I knew something was missing. Work! These
people don’t work” (Myers 52). Her discovery prompted further investigation by Ron, captain of the ship,
who confirmed the extent of the issue. “They have nothing to do. No work. No worries. No wishes.
Everything is done for them by those computers. They eat, sleep, exercise, and have entertainment,” he
reported (Myers 52). The crew used this information to discover why acid rain has been sent here to
Earth. It’s because the Suffesians are so “programmed” to do the same thing everyday, that they needed a
new source of entertainment. This came in the form of human minds.
The crew has decided they’re going to attack the computers and save Earth once and for all. Their
plan is to “launch a full scale attack” according to Ron (Myers 53). This attack is set to happen in the
morning at 0800; that’s when the machines are least active. Before Ron and his crew save Earth, we’d
like to mourn Greg and Mano. To everybody’s dismay, Greg and Mano have sadly had their brains stolen
by the ray on the first day of the mission. Just days ago they were excited to help save Earth from the rain,
just to become a victim to it themselves. The crew onboard the Odyssey have run into an issue however
which could delay them further. As if death wasn’t a big enough setback itself, confused Suffesians
continue to walk in the line of fire. It would be easy to force them to the side, or even kill some of them,
but that’s not the goal. The goal is to kill little to no life, for if they do the computers may attack them or
