Ok, this is just a writing I made time ago, perhaps you know I am form Latinoamerica, but I tray to translate the story correctly, hopefully you like it:
Writings in Tiberium
the fragment that follows was found in which apparently was the personal library of Kane in the temple of the Nod in Sarajevo before this outside was destroyed:
My history is different from all men who walked on the face of the world since I arrived at this, in the previously written perhaps is deduced that I am not of this world, third from the star that the humans call Sun, the fact is that I am not human, not totally, those who created me used the DNA of several human beings, of thousands, perhaps (they never said me about), no man can be what I am, first, I don’t have the capacity, or defect, at this point I don’t know what it is... I speak of age, of the physical wearing down, my person is totally immune to the passage of the centuries, I have the same appearance as when I was created, in addition to this I don’t have the contingency of sleep, however, always I pretended the necessity to sleep, for that reason beds are placed in the places where I live. And the ultimate factor wich make me different from the other human beings is that I am not subject to the feelings, briefly, the concepts of love, friendship, sadness, joy, or are very tenuous, or they do not have any dominion on my person, also I am immune to the sexual attraction, which avoids that type of sentimentalities that are very useful to obtain confidential information. I have to admit, however, sometimes I felt certain interest and even curiosity in knowing the feelings of the human beings in my own meat... at heart my only real interest is to fulfill my mission, without the average ones matter to me too much, I remember I knew Machiavelo and we agreed in previously the saying, but this is irrelevant in this writing. My mission is not simple, nor to just a short time taken to carry out it, in the galaxy existed nine intelligent species, or better, which the humans and they themselves considered intelligent, who cohabited and grew in big numbers long the stars, however, this growth lodged the problems of the fight by planets able to maintain great amount of life, for that reason terrible and devastating wars began by the control of them, in this conflict they devised terrible arms, arms that never will be used again by the races in conflict, mainly because 8 of the same ones have disappeared, and the last lost it, or better, left voluntarily, the knowledge that would cause the aim of the life in the galaxy, however, this race profit to inherit the knowledge of the other eliminated eight, I say profit, because it was an unavoidable inheritance, the booty of the last survivors of the cosmos, of course the fights for the control of worlds of the sector cause that this race diminished until being left 2 million alive, however, the galaxy was theirs, or at least they thought, since it was not left a planet able to be colonized or at least revitalized due to the massive world destruction, is then when they initiated the exploration of the cosmos to find a planet able to be colonized, in their trips discovered diverse worlds with totally rare forms of life difficult to understand, but these worlds were poor in the necessary matters for their subsistence, finally discovered a planet in where they were possible to be seated with great probabilities of success, the populating of the same one began, the lands were manipulated and worked and the oceans seeded of foreign life, but the tragedy happened, in the enormous excavations that were made to obtain minerals of the land released a strange form of life, the tiberium, that had stayed locked up being developed in the depths of the crust of that world, soon it began to invade all the planet and turn the atmosphere from the world unbreathed, very few alive beings were able to live in the same one. Scrins, as this race were called themself in its strange language, saw surrounded and without many possibilities to escape with his increasing population, was then when they made a crucial decision, scrin leaders ordered that a genetic manipulation was made in the neoborn ones with which they became immune, and even could be health with the tiberium, for 200 years the scrin race lived prospers in a tiberian world, but several wise scrins determined that the existed necessity to search for other planets to colonize, because the resources of that world would not resist but of 45 centuries. Several scrin scoutships were sent to the space to search worlds which could be colonized by the tiberium, of the diverse worlds that found in galaxy one in individual turn out to be potentially prone to be seeded with tiberium, however this planet passage to a second theme before a new problem, a civil war threatened this race, a new apostatized group had grown in the population of the planet, this group began a global war at the precise moment in that a ship of investigations initiated its exploration of the found planet, the terrible war generated a conflict with arms of massive destruction that cause the race scrin lost great part of its technology and backed down technologically until being a civilization incapable to colonize the new worlds, evidently with happening of the centuries the race scrin would recover its old potential. The investigation ship had started off arrive at the Solar System and began to investigate the new discovered world, it was dominated by a race of medium life and very conflicting who were called themself humans, the crew of the ship was beginig their investigations when they received the report of the war in the Tiberian world, some advocated to return, but the leader of the expedition decided to maintain the investigations, however the panic spread when it was discovered that the homeworld had been devastated and as soon as the interstellar communications had concluded. The occupants devised an ingenious plan, knowing that in a lapse of millenia scrin would recover their technological potential (always it happened in the history of the thinking races), chose to hope the ideal moment to initiate the dominion of the new planet, since the homeworld was lost great part of its tiberian wealth due to the destructions. However, as they dont dispose of mass destruction weapons or military equipment to kill all the humanity, they decided avoid at the moment of the invasion the humans had a excessive technological and military potential They created an organization, members human of course, that manipulated the rate of history with the degree of avoid an excessive advance in the military and technological techniques, however was needed a leader able to guide them, and that leader was me, of all the members of the single organization I knew and know the real meaning of the same one, my first place of operations was Africa the first name of my organization Shah Ae Sheer, my name was taken from the biblical first assasin of the world, because our organization is bassically a force that kill the progress of the humanity and of course the same humans. The first empire that I corrupted was Egypt, the diverse members of my organization infiltrated in this theocratic state and at the same time the diverse Pharaohs were induced to give properties and power at my agents, the result was a continuous weakening of Egypt, on a par of the brake of the technical advances. I have to admit that this first case was my main field of experimentation and preparation in my fight against the humanity, the tribes of Russian steppes also were useful in my mission, mainly in India and in the Eastern Mediterranean, it was not very easy to manipulate these individuals customary to freedom, but I could use their forces against the territories that I was interested they destroyed and opressed. After that the Persian empire, who was formed by those tribes was relatively easy to be destroyed, mainly using the Macedonians to execute my plans, sometimes I ask myself how is that the historians did not understand that were not Philip or Alexander that made the improvements of the Macedonian army, but my agents, they also were the ones in charge to inject a pathogenic agent which I eliminate Alexander, and I cause the fight of the diadocs for the hellenistic empire, I committed my first great error there, Idon’t generate the sufficient problems as all Mediterranean burned in wars, that allowed that in different sectors from the Mediterranean Cost sufficient technical advance arose as initiated in the basic principles of several technologies I killed many wise men but it doesn’t work, because they knowelgde was published before I could destroy it. I cannot deny that the evolutionary brake was difficult to place, since the Roman empire was so vast and powerful that by a time I considered that I had badly calculated the results of my efforts. But I found the ideal way to break this colossus. Once again I used external groups to cause the total destruction of the Mediterranean civilization, the Germans invaded the Roman empire and they destroyed almost of it, but I ignored a very important detail, many of the technical advances of that time were conserved by religious institutions like part of their libraries, I was very disagreeable with this, since to the Germans were turned, most of them had not been possible to be convinced to destroy the archives placed in so sacred places for them, and of course they was especially protected in universities and monasteries, and of course the Muslims, in their sector of the Mediterranean, also began to show an excessive interest by technical studies. I understood that seed of human wisdom was extremely difficult to destroy, overall if this was united to the religion, so the new mission of Shah Ae Sheer went to break the good relations betwen the religion and the technical wisdom, a work that was relatively easy, mainly when the heretical discords began, everything seemed that was working correctly, but once again the humans ended solving the paradigm that I had raised to them during the Renaissance. However, the mission was being fulfilled, the Scrin race had already recovered great part of its old power, and the humans just were in the dominion of the technologies of the steam, considers of which before they had a sufficient potential as to initiate space trips the scrin race could initiate the colonization of the world, but it happened an unexpected catastrophe, the ship from where received instruction suffered a serious accident and their crew were the necessity to be placed in animated suspension and turn off the systems of the ship to the minimum, before was cut communications I received the order to begin to use a direct way to prepare the colonization of this world, it was as in beginnings of century XX the Brotherhood of Nod arose from the Shah Ae Sheer, this organization began to recruit with military aims people of all the planet, creating a stealth army, ready to act where it was necessary, although under the flag of any organization who needed us. Among other actions our group was the one that I collaborate with the murder of Archduke Francis Fernand at hands of the Movement for the Great Serbia which produced World War I, however, I see that the result was counter-productive, because that war generates not the necesary destruction to hang the civilization and it generates technological advances , I calculated that the allies would win, making an extensive analysis of the situation I determined that the allied victory would cause serious disensiones that would end in another great war, and I deduced that if this lasted too much and it found very unbalanced, would cause a new series of technical advances, by so it chooses to harness to a country that had sufficient capacity like facing Germany when this resurged and was able to battle the allieds and USA. that was on the way to becoming hegemonic country of the planet, the obvious option was Russia, but it happened something terrible, something that I could not have anticipated. A brilliant scientific discovered the Warp technology 100 years before it had to be feasible for the humans, this fatal chance gave to the allies the capacity to travel on time, they manipulated history to cause not the war that I had anticipated, but one where the Russians invaded Europe, and generate new technologies and extremely dangerous military advances, I consider that the Soviets could be sabotaged, so the Nod came to ruin the conquest of Europe on the part of the Soviets, an empire that included all the globe was the last thing I needed, and of course the produced devastation by this war and next the World War 3, which the Soviets invaded America and enormously decreased the human population. The repairs of the ship scrin finalized in 1973 and I could contact with them, and something important even, the crew began to receive messages of the mother planet , who not forgotten them in all the that time, they advice the spaceship team that they had recovered the capacity to travel interstellar, the planet don’t dispose so much tiberium because most of them were destroyed or consumed and They had to prepare the final step to the Earth invasion. It will take 50 years because the scrin were making massival space Navy, able to transport all the scrin population to the planet Earth. And this invasion have began, the tiberium is appearing everywhere, first in the Tiber, soon in the Mediterranean, and finally in all the warm regions of the globe, we don’t have so much to do, even if the Nod and I were annihilated the Tiberium would continue growing unstoppable, ready to receive the scrins, who would raise as the new owners of this planet.
