Black Holes



In those things I find fascination. Somehow.
And those things are also related. Gravity is the fundamental factor, which everything –that has mass- possesses. Relativity theory is the thing Einstein theorized in order to explain the extra dimension of time in our 3 dimensions of space, and gravity can affect on those 4 dimensions.
And finally, black hole. Its gravity is so great that the 4 dimensions are smeared and twisted together in ways unimaginable to my range of mind. Though I’ve read that it doesn’t let light escape from it, because of the mount of gravity it has.
And right now, I’m smacked right in the middle of two of it. Two black holes on my left and right side, with equal yet immense strength in gravity. And I, the Mercury, stuck in between them, and must figure out a way to escape from their gravitational field.

Numerous solutions emerge; the first, being the most dominant one, and I don’t know if I could actually call this a solution, is that I’ll just let these black holes to affect me with their gravitational field, and hoping with my dear life that I won’t be ripped apart by their immense gravity. This is the easiest, and I see no further threat aside from the thought that sometime in the future, I will be ripped apart.
The second -introduced by a signal sent from a distant planet yet close friend of mine, Venus- is that I should act as the proper “middle man”; the neutral side that brings two opposing sides to resolve their problem once and for all. This one has numerous problems, such as the denial of one black hole to meet the other. And this “one black hole” happens to be my lover.
And the last one. I’ll just let this “one black hole” to drag me into its event horizon. Perhaps, this is the most dangerous one, because I have a risk of losing the gravitational field of the other black hole, which happens to be my best friend.

One thing is certain; I have to escape from their gravitational fields, one way or the other, because I couldn’t bear the thought of me being ripped apart to subatomic pieces.
