Beams of Why

Beams of Why
First, I have to introduce myself, I`m not a writer, or a human, or a being, or even an object. I`m a subject! How is that possible? Let`s just leave it till the end of the story.
It was a day like any other, I`m just searching for...anything!
Anyway, I`m just enjoying being invisible and completely silent. This of course gives me an advantage, but the most important thing I really enjoy is reading consciousness. You have to understand it`s completely different than reading minds, it`s not related to specific mind of an individual or animal or being, it`s waves of awareness floating within the atmosphere. We`re talking about Earth, this time, but it`s almost the same.
It was a day! The sun was exactly at the center, but blocked by heavenly towers. The Giant is there! It`s the world highest building, the location of the major capital of money puppets. It smells like money, only I don`t smell because I`m a subject, to be more accurate I need a subject. It smells like a subject, of course I can smell a subject!
It`s the waves, like this wave of doing everything to satisfy a wife who is definitely cheating on you because she misses the only thing you can`t afford, which is real sex, because you`re too busy getting her the other things she also wants. Or this wave of hating the fact that there is another CEO somewhere makes more money than you and you deeply convinced that he`s stupid while you`re bright, but deep inside you know you`re just another dumb one got lucky because of the stupidity of the people who give you their money to invest.
It was a day, but the increasing tension waves, turned it into an exceptional day. That` why I`m here, remember I told I`m a subject and because of that I`m timeless. It`s all started when money lost its cover, I investigated that day. She was totally naked in the street and it was cold and because she wasn`t human she had no rights and so people ate her piece by piece. Since then she is never enough for anyone.
That day was like waves, fighting each other and even committing suicide, but somehow someone magically managed to make something out of this chaos. Unfortunately, it caused millions of unhealthy waves against the Giant because some governing waves sacrificed with them to save the Giant keepers.
The weird phenomenon was that those millions of waves were incredibly diverse but incredibly unified against the Giant, which drove the universe attention. They are indescribable, which forced me to categorize them. So we have (you ruined my life), (I lost everything, including my family), (... You all), (let`s just kill the.....), (it was my pension), (now I can`t even afford medication), (the..... government paid the bill from our pockets), (let`s just blow the...), (now they`re after our guns). Please notice it`s just a sample and I had to remove dirty language because of heavenly restrictions!
After that day, I had to stay for more investigations and because I had a hunch. The Giant kept sending controversy waves after that day, I didn`t actually understand, but even I couldn`t stand waves like (the company is sold in ten, but the top managers got one), or like (the CEO has gone to prison but then got a presidential pardon). But the very annoying wave is the one showing that the wife still cheats on him and still wants more.
Anyway, sadly everything turned to normal after a while, but I`m still here because I still have a hunch and because sadly it`s not yet a subject. You see a subject should be complete as a story has a beginning, middle and an end, but what we have here!
However, time proved I`m right and it wasn`t the end yet. Actually, I started to notice small healthy waves coming from different directions, but growing very fast. What was special about those waves is they were conscious; not all of them, but some of them were even over conscious. Is this good! I don`t know, it`s not my job, but honestly, how the sky bosses would think about it! But some of those waves became in sudden revolutionary waves, in some areas of Earth out of my reach, but I just felt how much those revolutionary waves could be influential!
Unfortunately, I recorded another type of waves, not only unhealthy but also scary. The problem is I don`t know how those waves came to my consciousness field because they seemed irrelevant. I said, I`m a subject so it should be clear that I receive only relevant waves, so I`m confused. Those waves were about something is going to happen, I figured out it must have something to do with the Giant. It was the only logical explanation, but since they were coming from far location, out of my reach, I couldn`t figure out why?
It`s getting more complicated because I see waves coming from the Giant crossing with the scary waves, but the weirdest of all is they are unreadable to me. I have to confess I`m lost and something weird is happening and the worst part I can`t even communicate with my base, because I don`t know what my base is!
After too much thinking I came up with a theory that some group of people are planning for something big and bad, and somehow, but in an indirect way some people in the Giant are connected with this. Sounds like a conspiracy theory, I know, but it seemed the only possible explanation.
This day! What can I say about this day?
It was the end of my mission because it was the end of the Giant. It was the subject, I was looking for, but it was so painful.
The waves, No! It wasn`t, waves, it was, beams heading for heaven. It was, beams of (Why?).
It was my first time seeing this; it was beautiful and painful.
The beams were not sad, on the contrary, but they were asking. I saw each beam carries his own story. That one saved lives, the other one once loved, but that one was a bad CEO had unique courage in his last moments, and this beam is the one his wife cheats on him.
I know you humans can`t understand how this affects the universe, I mean the whole wave system is disturbed by a wave of a crying child, not knowing why he`s killed, or a miserable mother wondering who`s going to feed her baby now. A hard working man who`s broke by the Giant, but when the crisis happened, he rushed to give help and to lose his life without obvious reason.
Will the hate waves prevail?
Will the (But) conquer the try for understanding for the sake of justifying?
Does it end when terrorists declared responsible? Or is it the waves of fear are meant to control?
At the end; will the beams of why stay lost and forgotten?
Well, I`m just a subject I`m not even a story has an end. But I`m not even a subject because I don`t have a title and you can`t transmit a conscious subject without a title because it will never be picked by anyone. They would check the title and if it`s within their interest they read the subject, otherwise it`s garbage. Don`t ask me who are they because I`m just like you, doing the job!
Now, since I can`t make a title, I`m really tired of this job. I mean, come on! Being a subject! It doesn`t make any sense, actually nothing means anything in this universe.
So I figured out that the most noble thing to do is to be another one of those beams of why!
