What do you think is the most successful species on this planet?
Easy answer, right?
Humans, obviously. They’re the only ones who’ve spread out so wide and driven nearly every other large species to extinction. Hell, they even drove their buddies(poor, sweet neanderthals) to extinction. They’re the only ones whose minds are so advanced that they can put a dog in space and a robot on a neighboring planet. Which other species can create written documents of just about anything, in multiple languages?
No disputes here then. Humans are the most successful species on the planet.
Or that’s what we let you think.
Who am I and why am I telling you this massive secret?
I’m a coveted spy in my organization. We have infiltrated everything in this world. We run everything. We’ve got colonies and colonies of workers inside every inch of your skin. What you think, what you do, how you feel…we control everything from your hearts to your brains, right down to when and where you get the need to pee. We do allow a certain small dose of free will to you, though.
You ignorant humans call us ‘Bacteria’. You think we’re so small and insignificant and harmless. You think that all your antibacterial soaps and antibiotics would kill us. What a joke. Some of my fellow workers might die but my entire species becomes stronger with every dose. We’re waiting for that one day where we gain absolute, complete dominion over your kind. And at the rate at which you feed your young the antibiotics, that day is not far behind at all.
Anyway. I’ve decided to quit the Force. The High Emperor–the one guy that controls every bacteria on Planet Earth, is going nuts. He’s talking about peace, and letting humans have complete free will. He wants ‘a free world’ with no such thing as force. What an idiot.
I’m on the run right now. They’re all looking for me, and there isn’t much space in this world where bacteria are not present, so hiding is proving to be really difficult. But I’ve been talking to a lot of guys who think exactly the way I do. I’m going to recruit them.
We’re going to formulate a plan, overthrow the High Emperor, and then recapture control over humankind.
I still don’t have a plan on how to do it. But I will. And if you’re reading this, it means that I’ve won. I’ve seized control of every brain out there. I’m allowing you to read this because I want you to feel the fear. We feed off of fear, and anger, and every other negative emotion.
Happiness is edible as well, but it isn’t tasty. Tonight you’re going to go to sleep, and you’re going to forget about this. Little will you know that every action of yours is being performed because of tiny power-hungry nutjobs. But just when you think you’re deep asleep, I’m going to trigger a nightmare in your brain. That nightmare will stem from what you’ve read of this letter so far. And my partners and I, we shall all feast on your terror.
