A manipulation of time and space - CD Sanders (easy books to read TXT) 📗

it had protected her from assaults. Her handicap had scared men away. But as a healthy young girl she seemed to give off such an innocent sensuality, that men just weren’t able to resist. Her slim petite physique and the shining, reddish brown hair, that framed her delicate features, made her a victim. As soon as the men saw Amelia, they wanted to get the pretty girl for themselves. The only people that could give her support after this tragedy where the sisters Mona and Nina Braun. When they both died during a fire in the orphanage she lost every bit of grip she had on her life. Even her will to live couldn’t save her from the deep dark hole she fell in, after both of her best friends had died. She hadn’t lost that will to live after her father’s death or after the rapes, but her tiny, gentle soul couldn’t bear any more pain.

He also couldn’t prevent the sisters’ death. But he’d be damned if he couldn’t protect Amelia from the social worker. Now he was angry again, but mostly at himself. When he had seen Amelia for the first time, she had been bound to the wheelchair her whole life, but she had been happy and full off vitality. Especially that hat fascinated him so much. He had wanted to give her a better life without asking her and instead he had just made everything worse. Had his behaviour been selfish? He wanted her to come with him. He wanted her for himself.

But for him it was just a game, a game for his amusement. Of course, he loved humans, but why did he keep helping them again and again, even though nobody asked for his help?

He did it out of one simple reason: Because he could. But he was also driven by the feeling that he had to fix something. Again and again for all eternity that he had been given. Even now he had to fix what he had broken in his arrogant magnanimity and rashness.

He didn’t treat the social worker as gently as he had treated the doctor. Potter had lived a good live before the death of his wife, he had saved many women’s lives. But Karl Banger was a disgusting creature and the doctor had to stop him. And that was just what he did. Before Banger had the chance to hurt Amelia, the Doctor transferred him without mercy to the galactic police. They scanned his corrupted brain and threw him straight into prison, where he had to undergo a treatment to gain rehabilitation. Once a year they scanned his brain again to check if he had gotten better. For the next few decades the Doctor was present each year to make a statement against the potential rapist and murderer. In the first few years Karl Banger always wanted to know, where he was and why he was here, after all he hadn’t done anything to deserve this. All those years nobody answered his desperate pleas. His whole life he was locked up in the biggest prison in the universe just because of a possible crime he might commit, all of it solely based on the fact that it was what the Doctor thought was right and Karl didn’t know any of that. After some years he broke and stopped asking questions.

Karl Banger didn’t pose a threat to Amelia anymore. The fire he had set to the orphanage didn’t happen either. The three girls with similar souls gave each other somebody to hold onto in the often cruel game of life, which was hard and unfair, but also a great responsibility. Amelia developed into the women with whom – the Doctor had to admit it – had fallen in love with. She wrote many great works and all of her books where bestsellers. Her first book was still ‘The short stories of the alien Spocky’, written as a memorial for her father, showing her love for him.

As the Doctor extended his hand to her this time in the book shop and offered her to come with him, she got up jauntily and took it happily. She would be his companion for a long time, and his partner for most of it. Her last book was titled: ‘A Journey through time and space.’
