Phoenix Bird Rising

In 1976, a battle was fought; and during the battle, an object was found. In 1986, the object began to vibrate and get warm. A humming noise came from within. It would be used to open a larger sphere recently found in the Inspiration copper mine.

Back in 1876, a town had been named after this strange object-a globe with continents on it. The town is Globe, Arizona, USA. The globe of metals was sent to the Smithsonian Institute years before, but it was "lost" over a period. The town sent a professor from ASU to investigate. He learned the globe was being given to a government leader in Asia as a gift for the privilege of buying oil and doing business. The professor located the globe in a hidden area of the Smithsonian and removed it before it could be sent.

The professor is chased across the country but delivers the globe to the town council in Globe, Arizona. Word goes out and the professor is fired from his job, but not before he gives out six hundred As to his students.

His wife leaves him. He loses his house. His car is continuously being repossessed. Once he is saved by a group of bikers at a place called Hole in the Wall, who stand off the collectors by shooting holes in their car.

Later, hostages would be taken and, in return, the globe delivered (ordered by a secret society).

During the battle in 1976, a motorcycle explodes and uncovers a second object with ancient figures and symbols. The globe is on this artifact with wings.

An investigative reporter for the Street Journal tells about this object in an interview with the media. The professor hears and decides to go take a look. He learns that this is the long-lost capstone to a pyramid, which reveals the lost and ancient truths built into the pyramids: lost over thousands of years. (The symbols on both are the same.)

The capstone tells of two objects-a globe of pure metals and a sphere in an underground civilization. The sphere vibrates when touched, the globe shows where the sphere is located.

Is this the globe for which the town was named? The professor investigates further. What of this underground sphere? Who could know that it would be found in 1986? What would the globe reveal? What is the point? Read the story.
