THE OMEGA FILES SHORT STORIES



some strange things happen in this world. you hear all kinds of frightening stories. but are they true? who do you belive? some stories never get into the newspapers, because governments want to keep them secret. and these are the stories in the omega files.



How many people know about the omega files? not maany- perhaps no more than thirty people in brussels. hawker and jude know abour them, because they bring back a lot of the stories taht go into the files. they have interesting lives. one day they're in London, talking to a young man. he has a strange story to tell them, about a drug company, but is it true? another day they go to Scotland,to look for a monster in Loch Ness, but of course, there are no monsters- are there? another time they're on an island in the Pacific Ocean, where everbody is talking about a spaceship. but where is this spaceship? and who has actually seen it?



it's all there, in the Omega Files.



in the early years hawker and jude travelled a lot. brussels, strasboug, rome, delhi, washington ...

north africa, south america, australia...no home, no family, just work. they worked for the top him. he was called arla. nobody knew his real name, or much was from another planet. he always gave the hard jobs to hawker and jude.the jobs with questions, but not many answers. the omega files.



when i met them, many years later, hawker and jude werw about seventy years old. they lived very quietly, in a little white house on greek island. they went walking, swimming, fishing; they sat in the sun, and slept a lot.



at firts, they didn't want to talk about their work. 'we cant't,' our work was secret. it's all in the goverment files, and nobody can read them.' 'after thirty years,' i said, ' people can read all secret goverment files.'



'not these files,' hawker said. 'it's a hundred years before people can read the EDI files.'

i looked at them. ' but i don't need to read the files,'

i said.'i can get the stories from you.'



and i did. here aredome of them...
