PHASE IV
TRASH DAY
IT HAD BEEN one hundred and fifty-seven years since the start of project TERRAFORM DELTA.Finally, the site surveys had confirmed success. The ecosystem had become self-sustaining. The life webegan so long ago had taken hold and was successfully spreading between zones to cover the entireplanet. The quality control team from the Orion Empire had checked our work and confirmed success.There was only one last duty to perform and then we could leave.
From the beginning, we had programmed the slaves with the story from the BOOK OF WOO aboutgoing to the shelter when they saw the signal which would be a red glow in the night sky [from flaresatellites we had positioned about the planet]. When the slaves saw this signal, they were immediatelyto go to the "safety" of the capsule which was installed in each zone. Now the time had come to activatethe final project sequences.
On the final night, we transmitted the codes to activate the red flare satellites. The slaves in every zonefollowed their programmed instructions and went into the "safety" capsules. We waited forconfirmation that all slaves were in the capsules. There was a loud click as the one way locks sealed thelids of the titanium capsules. We armed the nuclear devices at the bottom of each capsule. The capsulesdescended into the ground and then the nuclear device detonated. We had successfully complied withour contract agreement to leave "no biologically active alien material" on the planet at the end of theproject.
At sunrise, we were packed and ready to go home. Any remaining biological material was sent to theincinerators. Modular units that were practical to disassemble were made ready for transport. When thetransport ship arrived, we sent the final destruct codes to the satellites so that they would fall and bedestroyed in the atmosphere. A small amount of non-organic material was to be left behind whichwould be well within the terms of our contract with the Orions.
We boarded the transport ship for the trip to our moon base and then back to our homes in theunderground cities on Earth. Our mission was successfully completed.
