Exhibit C

some time in the future when the chinese race is few in number...

i'm in a transitory place, a way station building. a sizable section of it is an open movie theater lined with rows of red chairs. a documentary is projected on the movie screen showcasing the chinese empire's varying ascents and descents throughout history until its final collapse brought upon by ignorant use of earth resources. the general ambiance is gloomy and tired. many elderly people are here and people with luggage are constantly arriving and leaving, all of them chinese. few actually stop to watch the movie, presumably because they don't "have time".

when i arrive, i had to go through a kind of obstacle of mezzanines and staircases. some were mobile and some not much like in the movie Labyrinth, minus the varying gravity fields. to get to the movie seats, one must traverse stairpaths down, up, down up, and over again--it's exhausting and ridiculous to me. when i finally escape the maze of stairs (i jumped out of it) i immediately look for an exit. there are two, one within reach and the other after yet more stepways.

i go through the nearest exit. to my surprise The Press is photographing the masses of chinese as they arrive. a woman who is an authority-figure of sorts spots me and calls me over to a computer terminal where she makes demands for my identity documentation. i have none of course (who needs ID in dreamland?), so i give her my name, birth date, and verify two of my prior living addresses. she's shocked and startled.

"what is it?" i say.
"you are 200 years old!"

i was just as surprised. . . and then i remember what happened Before and connected some seemingly unrelated dots.

Before, a few friends and i roamed through some heavily forested woods not far from our city around midnight. somehow i became separated from the group ... and wandered through a timewarp in the woods which brought me to this building to begin with!

happily i thought to myself, "here's to the fulfilling of my 12-year-old self's prophecy that i will live a LONG time!"
