The Alternate Reality
Ever since season three signed off on the first ever “We’ve got to back Kate” Flash Forward, we have ventured in to a new formula for each of the following two seasons, so what now? What of season 6? A lot of people have speculated on an alternate reality theory, after seeing the Lost titles on a white background, I support this theory. I believe season 6 will start with alternate flashes, revealing the lives of the Losties having never crashed on the island and how they come to crash instead three years after. They do not recall their previous lives on the island, and fall victim to a bloody take over from the Black Shirt Guy. The other reality keeps bleeding in and out of this new reality, revealing to the Losties what their lives once were and to prevent this dark future from becoming what it is, they have to revert back into their own and save Jacob. The island never actually moved in space it moved in realities and the whispers? They are the result of this bleedi! ng.
Which brings me to Desmond, he is unique, “special”, and we currently believe this has something to do with time, but this might not be entirely true. Go back to Flashes before your eyes, after Desmond blew up the hatch maybe he didn’t go back in time, maybe he jumped realities. He was given the choice to change his destiny but he refused to do so, he lives the same fate in both realities. When Faraday was banging on the hatch door, maybe he was speaking to an alternate Desmond, and the connection shared between the two sparked something in his alternate self. Hurley is another example, currently he see’s “dead people” (Not trying to go all sixth sense on you) but maybe this is not true, maybe he can see into another reality and the people in there know for some reason what is going on in our reality and keep trying to warn and guide Hurley to his destiny.
Jacob knows all this; the Losties he “touched” are the only ones who can save him because they are the only ones who have lived lives in two realities, the only ones to have shaped their own destinies. He wanted Ben to kill him, because ultimately it was the only way he could defeat black shirt guy, the only way the Losties would do what they needed to do in the end, so he shaped Ben for what destiny dictated him to do. His death was for the greater good and the longest con
