Which Bob?

When I returned to the office not only did I find Louise but Bob as well his full name being Robert Carne. Do you remember that he died in his Cardiff flat as the result of wounds inflicted upon him by Lewis Style. If you do when you have the same hole in your mind as I do, but I also remember him not dying and the paramedics telling me it looked worst than it really was. Two different memories in my head and somehow they coexist without driving me insane. Nobody else remembers Bob dying but me.

I was little surprised when I saw him, shouting at him “Your dead! Your dead!” As you can imagine this did not go down too well with Louise who slapped me in the face rather hard. Bob seemed quite unconcerned by my outburst and once I had settled down had a possible explanation. He did not look as young as I remembered him either, his eyes looked old.

The reason Bob had come to see me was that he had recently lost contact with Professor Maad, the feeling of traveling full circle came to me then. That was the original reason Bob contacted me the first time round. Bob had been in almost constant communication with the Professor via satellite phone. Apparently the Professor is somewhere in the middle of nowhere searching for Ozymandias's kingdom, the last call he had from the Professor was to say he was coming home, that call happened on the 20^th March. There has been no word since, I am losing count of the number of people that have gone missing.

There could of course be a simple explanation for the Professor's silence, his phone could be broken or like me he has forgotten to charge it. Although Bob did not think this was the case.

Bob possible solution to my two memories is that because I was at the doorstep so to speak when the gateway to Tartarus was opened the energies released have somehow changed me. Professor Drake's curious holy stone obviously protected me from the worst effects since I did not end up like Lewis Style but I was still affected. Bob believes that my consciousness can cope with all possible timelines.

Whilst I was in Canada I met a physics student who told me that the very building blocks of our universe were in decay couple this with my recent experience with Spiral then perhaps maybe Bob is right. Why did Spiral latch onto me instead of someone else, did the effects of Tartarus make it easier for Spiral to invade my body?

Another more worrying question is I am causing this?
