hope it will be productive to her work”…
Ales, leaving the office of Cortez, was on top of happiness. She imagined herself already a man with all sorts of new feelings that her for three- hundred- year period, according to the Terrestrial chronology of life, not had to experience. And only the stories of Peter she learned details of being a human being.
She entered the apartment where Peter was waiting for her. When she saw him, she ran up to him and threw him on the neck with the tide of unspeakable joy, simulating the feeling is so real that Peter almost believed her human essence.
– You that are altered in people? – Seriously, he said. If these words are heard earth girl, she would have been offended to the core. But the robot Ales joyfully sang:
Oh, Petrushka, I’m so happy that I cannot still believe in the opportunities.
– And, of course, it’s Cortez has promised you all right?
– But he also curated and his word is law that is enforceable.
“This is for you, robots that are programmed to perform his bidding program law. We do not think so, because we can make adjustments to the circumstances.” – It occurred to Peter. But in order not to embarrass Ales, he said aloud:
Yes, dear, I totally agree with you.
– I am now in your team and I will be with you in the expedition. And when we find Theo, and most importantly get him here, Cortez will give me a human being. Here’s how! – It is with delight again rushed to Peter’s neck, I Sobinova cracked vertebrae, and he could not stand, groaned:
Oh, Ales, I beg you not so much!
Chapter 2
The expedition was scheduled to Eden. And Cortez parting words addressed to all the participants in his study.
– So, gentlemen, you will have the mission is not easy. Wherever you are going, live wild and not very friendly tribes, who was unceremoniously and kill aliens. But you are staffed. You have nothing to fear. Do you remember your task to reveal Theo, hold it, and deliver to the Center of the Coalition? Dumar squad will be to duplicate the advanced search expedition led by General Garinova. This is due to the maximum degree of safety. In the event of unforeseen circumstances, he always comes to the rescue, following in your footsteps, Mr. Garin.
Cortes look around all of its caustic eye, trying to read the thoughts of everyone, but all were closed. Read he could do nothing. Eyes fell on Garinov.
– You, General, I think, express your opinion about this?
Garin stretched in the military and said:
– Mr curator, we are protected from the wild tribes, and how we cope with the protection of Theo that is sure to perfectly prepared and just waiting for when it burst in upon us to catch him?
– What do you mean? – His piercing eyes looking at the general, said Cortez.
Yes, that I have the impression that Theo has long figured out all sorts of options meeting with a search expedition.
– Give so, General, we agree on one thing. Your only problem will be reduced to a search expedition, and his arrest and delivery to the Center will be performed by other services. – At the same time curator looked expectantly at Dumar. Orth and Ephesus, standing next to Dumar, looked at each other.
– I mean, as I understand it, Theo will be eliminated immediately and without discussion.
– Do not assume, General, I really so bloodthirsty. Theo and his knowledge of the mission of the Center is not over. He needed the Coalition…
– And you, Mr. Curator, ready to give way to him?
Cortes these words Garinova, pale beyond recognition. At its narrow cheekbones nervously ran nodules. There was a long pause. All present were silent, waiting for what the outcome of a skirmish with Garinova Cortes. Finally Curator sharp voice said:
– Do you have a built- in monitoring system. This is just in case you forget what to do and where to go next, after the examination of a particular sector. Do not forget about this and strictly follow the safety rules. That’s all. Ales robot takes first expedition Garinova in Eden. After the examination of the first sector Garinova team behind them will be soldiers Dumar stripper territory.
– Mr Curator, may object? – Started talking Dumar.
Cortes, raising his eyebrows questioningly looked at the captain.
– Where will the command of General me with my fighters do nothing. Maybe, after all, you are allowed to make search in parallel. For example, General examines one sector I am different?
– Yes, actually you Dumar right. So it will be better. Then I find and correct the program you Dumar, will depart on its aircraft tomorrow at Eden. Everything on this. Good luck, gentlemen.
Garin asked Cortes:
– Mr Curator, let us Dumar with the team to spend time in front of our actions on an expedition in Eden.
– It is strictly prohibited, so there was no collusion between you.
– Mr Curator, what other conspiracy? We have gathered rob Center?
– The most valuable is freedom. And your freedom, ladies and gentlemen, may commit follies in a fragile and unstable cosmic universe, so everything has to go his own, course and no independent action without my permission. You understand?
– That’s right! – Coined Dumar. Garin only grunted in response: – Yes!
– Then- bye. All one after the other in single file out of the solar system, the Curator’s office, accompanied by robot guards, this is a case where someone from the team will want to talk to you.
Behind the door of the Curator’s office, looking at such precautions Cortez Garin condescendingly thought to myself: “How, in a paddock for criminals. Seen in the case of Cortez is not brilliant”…
As soon as the door closed behind the last, Cortez, frantically jumped out from behind his desk table and went back and forth nervously around the room. Before the meeting of the Academic Council of Representatives of the six major civilizations of the Milky Way were only a few minutes. He, of course, knew that he would have to answer to the Council on its activities. He, of course, foresaw what might end his stay here at the Center. And not hard to guess. Next to the Krill he may be in solitary confinement. And the consequences can be different, but the worst thing is that never again its revival will never happen in the endless cycle of birth manifestation…
Meeting was a six boxes summarized in a semi- circular segment with the transparent front wall. Comparison with the horseshoe shape of the segment, is the best suitable for this. At the center of the semicircle at the table with six screens displays, sat Cortez. With its excellent location on the perimeter looked through shared segment six boxes for members of the Academic Council of advanced civilizations of the Milky Way. Each bed is a space that is connected with the representation of a star system.
Chaired by the Academic Council Curator plasmodia forms of existence, the highest of all. Outwardly, he looked like a plasma clot forms spherical luminous matter, twenty centimeters in diameter. Crackle iridescent glowing bright orange waves running over the surface of the bunch energy of matter, has said that the representative of the plasmids is endowed with responsible mission. To the left of the President of the Council was boxing Kremneva civilization, i.e. life based on silicon compounds of living matter. There could see the figure of a man of low body rather be similar to the nursery. He was wearing a green jumpsuit, with all kinds of pocket, could be seen from a variety of gadgets and wires. The look in his movements and facial expressions of children’s nothing in sight. His facial features were courageous. The look of black as coal eyes glowed a tough will and concentration. Right, boxing Phosphoric civilization, based on the
