Marsiana 3-4
CHAPTER 4
Sarah without blinking was looking at the control panel. It suddenly came over her previously unfamiliar feeling. She doubted in her life for the first time. She did not know what her decision. Sarah as if awakened from a heavy sleep, and just now when she left in a hurry the surface of Oberon, began to realize that none of it has planned will not work. She will not be able to dock with the ship unnoticed, and even more so to get inside. Not to mention the fact which will produce a shock to all members of the expedition the unexpected changes occurred to her. In fact, a soulless android in a few hours changed, may be not in a real human, but without a doubt, in a full-fledged some kind of thinking being.
If Captain Harper, Colonel McKinney and the rest did not know her legless android, then perhaps they would have received her appearance in her present form as something unexpected, in the orbit of Oberon, but it is quite usual and familiar. About the elimination of all members of the expedition alone could not even be considered. She simply will be destroyed by the Special Forces soldiers. And what remains of her, will be taken back to Earth for examination. ‘This is exactly,’ Sarah said aloud,’ turning off the alarm beacon. ‘The road to the ship for me is closed. Well, I think of something,’ she turned the aircraft and sent it back to the surface of Oberon. On board the ship perfectly seen all the incomprehensible actions of the android ASO - 1, and decided that he had simply corrupted the program due to the low temperatures or strong impact. Android’s brain was made into the superalloy, but provides all the surprises with which he might encounter on the surface of Oberon no one could. Even theoretically. But most of all Colonel McKinney alerted by the fact that Android is not available on the phone, although the communication system with the ship, according to the indications of instruments, has been fully operational. Colonel McKinney beckoned to his assistant, Major Jeffrey Renton. ‘Jack, what do you think about all this?’ he asked when Major stopped next to him. ‘I think that something is going on down there. From Marsiana was a report?’ Colonel shook his head. ‘Not yet.’ At this point the control panel lit red light with. ‘Sir, sir,’ Lieutenant Alex Brown shouted at once. ‘We just lost the device, which flew Marsiana and Sgt Conner!’ Face of Colonel McKinney frowned. He exchanged a quick glance with the Major, and without further ado, both went to the control panel. ‘What does it mean?’ Colonel asked sharply. Lieutenant, almost stammering with excitement, and still more from fear of Colonel nodded at the screen and, and just in case, slightly pulled away his chair aside. ‘They were shot down, sir,’ he reported in a loud whisper. ‘Shot down? How? Who! There is no one there!’ Lieutenant Brown did not know how to respond better to the Colonel's questions. ‘Our onboard system recorded explosion of the vehicle,’ he said. ‘Now I try to find out what happened with Marsiana and Sergeant. At this point it sounded the call signal. ‘What there else?’ Colonel asked loudly. ‘It Marsiana, Sir,’ Lieutenant said happily. ‘So, they are alive!’ ‘That's good they alive. Bring it on screen,’ Major Renton ordered. On the monitor appeared face of Marsiana. Next to her all those who were in the chamber saw lying on the ground Sgt Conner. It became clear that he was wounded. ‘Marsiana what happened?’ Colonel demanded. ‘During the flyby over the checked sector we had been shot down,’ Marsiana calmly replied. ‘Then we were attacked by unknown creatures. Sergeant Conner wounded. I what was in my power did for him. He needs urgent evacuation. ‘Major, prepare group,’ Colonel ordered immediately. ‘We're going down. Enough to sit here!’ The soldiers, on hearing these words, visibly brightened. They themselves did not realize how much they still hang around in orbit. With the same success they could all stay at home. ‘I need five men,’ Colonel McKinney continued to give orders. He examined the men. ‘You, you, you, and ...,’ his index finger in indecision froze in the air. ‘And Sergeant Graham Adams. All is clear?’ ‘Yes, Sir!’ fighters responded in chorus and somehow happily. ‘Excellent. All get ready for the landing. Do not forget your weapon.’ ‘That's it, sir, we will never forget,’ Sergeant Graham said for all. ‘I mean the tactical nuclear warhead,’ Colonel explained. One of the marines quietly whistled. ‘Wow,’ fighter Stevenson exclaimed. ‘It’ll be a serious mission.’ ‘If there will be hot we just leave the bomb and blow it up from the orbit,’ Colonel said. ‘I take all the responsibility on myself.’ ‘What could be responsibility,’ Sergeant Graham shrugged. ‘We're not on Earth. Well, we’ll blow up one or two dozens green asses aliens. So what? They are not the people. Marines laughed merrily. ‘Green asses. That's what you said is great,’ Private Adams praised his Sergeant. ‘I would not have thought of it.’ ‘You're not a sergeant. You are you me,’ joked Sergeant Graham. ‘That’s enough guys. We’ve got to prepare quite seriously. We do not know what awaits us down there. And if something goes wrong then most likely all of us there stay. There's a terrible cold, check all their suits and all the ammo. Peterson, check rover. We’ll not walk there on our own though if somebody like I don’t mind.’ Nobody wanted. ‘I’ll do, Sir,’ Peterson with readiness obeyed to the Sergeant. When all was ready for the descent, Colonel McKinney ordered his group to be loaded into the lander. At the hatch he was held by Major Renton. ‘Sir, maybe I go instead of you?’ he asked. ‘Do not worry, Major. Everything is fine. I understand that you had to say it, but I want to fly,’ Colonel answered and friendly patted Major Renton on his shoulder. ‘How you wish, sir,’ Major stepped aside to let Colonel McKinney walk into the lander. Yet a few minutes later the hatch closed tightly and began a reverse countdown. Then push and lander found itself in the open space. The men greeted this event cheers with. ‘Anniversary, guys,’ Adams cried. ‘Let’s show the green asses who is the Marines.’ ‘That's right, Johnny, let’s show,’ his friend Tony Piper answered him instead of all. Colonel McKinney intense gaze followed the readings with. On the screen could be seen that the ship was moving away and was approaching, filling all the screens the surface of Oberon. He tried not to think about what was waiting for them down there. Colonel McKinney wanted as quickly as possible to perform a task, leave the nuclear charge, and go back into orbit. Less than twenty minutes from the start as the lander with a group of Colonel McKinney made a soft landing on the surface of Oberon. The men quieted down some, when they saw on the screen unfriendly alien to human landscapes. ‘Take my advice guys. You better think that you are in Alaska,’ Colonel McKinney said. ‘There also is very cold and dark in the polar night.’ ‘Yes, Sir thinks that we are in Alaska,’ Adams said not very confidently said. ‘What’s wrong, Adams?’ McKinney's face broke into a smile. ‘Frightened?’ ‘No, Sir ... There is little,’ Adams admitted, nervously clutching automatic plasma rifle. ‘Do not worry, soldier. We can fly away at any moment ... Where is Marsiana? Colonel McKinney asked sharply. ‘She’s still doesn’t connect with us?’ Programmer Harry Doyle, set up instruments, and everyone saw on the screen face of Marsiana. ‘There our alien’s beauty,’ Sergeant Graham said in satisfied tone. ‘Sir, Marsiana on line.’ ‘I see, Sergeant,’ Colonel McKinney looked into the girl's face. He already did not know who she really is, but he decided to pretend that he believes that she is the same human as they are. Although he knew that no other girl in the whole world would have agreed to walk alone around the Oberon at a distance of billions of kilometers away from home. ‘Maybe she is indigo?’ Adams said as if guessing his thoughts. Colonel McKinney threw him a look of surprise. ‘Sorry, Sir. Snatch out,’ Adams said defensively. ‘Indigo, you say. Well, maybe she’s indigo. We should get to bottom of it.’ ‘Marsiana what have you goy?’ he asked turning to the girl. ‘What is the situation? Aborigines no longer worried?’ Sergeant Graham could not resist and snorted. Maybe Colonel calls the aliens the Indians, but they we’ll be like uninvited colonizers from the Europe? Colonel McKinney pretended that he heard nothing. ‘Everything is fine,’ Marsiana said. ‘You can pick up Sgt Conner. He's hurt.’ ‘We know. Now we send the rover,’ Colonel looked at the distance sensors. ‘Before you half mile. Now we will be there. Stay where you are.’ ‘Fine, Sir. We wait,’ Marsiana disappeared from the screen. ‘Who will go?’ Colonel McKinney asked. ‘Well, I'll go,’ Graham said first. ‘Okay, Sergeant. Whom do you take with you?’ ‘Adams if you do not mind, Sir.’ ‘I do not mind. I do not know what Adams thinks himself,’ Colonel McKinney said. ‘I agree, Sir,’ Private Adams said at once. ‘Sergeant Graham and me fought together not bad in the few local wars,’ he added not without satisfaction in his voice. Colonel's face broke into a smile. I heard about your exploits and not just me.’ Adams came down and stood beside Sergeant Graham. ‘As for me Asia or Oberon is the same hell for me,’ he said. Sergeant Graham's face was evident that he was pleased that Adams would go with him. Colonel shook their hands. ‘Good luck guys. Remember. We're now watching your every move. If something goes wrong, immediately come to rescue you.’ ‘The main thing is that help comes not too late, Sir,’ Adams joked. Nobody at his joke even smiled. His words are all taken seriously. ‘Try not to be late, Adams,’ Colonel McKinney Adams assured Sergeant Adams. ‘Thank you, Sir. We go.’ ‘Okay, do it,’ Graham and Adams took their place inside the rover. Adams was going to drive it. Among the armored personnel carriers, tanks and other armored vehicles, Sergeant Adams felt like a fish in water. He immediately began to check some instruments, test rover’s systems. Making sure that everything is in order lifted upwards thumb. ‘Excellent machine, Doug. We can fly in a given square. Hopefully, Conner has not yet stiff there.’ ‘Do not worry our unusual girl warms him.’ ‘Marsiana?’ Adams raised his eyebrows. ‘Of course she.’ ‘I doubt a bit. I think she will kill him sooner than warm. But maybe I'm wrong.’ Their dialogue was interrupted by a sharp voice of Colonel McKinney. ‘Graham, Adams, you're ready?’ ‘Yes, Sir. Everything is fine. A dolly is ready for the assignment.’ ‘Excellent. We open the sluice.’ ‘Opens, Sir ... and this,’ Adams paused. ‘Pray for us there, just in case.’ The sluice of the landing module opened, and all-terrain vehicle with two soldiers on board left on the surface of Oberon. Sergeant Graham involuntarily shivered. ‘What’s wrong with you, Doug?’ Adams asked who felt completely at ease himself. ‘I do not know. So something. I hope no voids beneath us? I do not want to fall into the pit.’ ‘Under us is the basalt slab. Anywhere we’ll not fall in,’ Steve Adams said. ‘If you don’t believe me take a look at the readings yourself. ‘I see, but still something not all right. I see you in the full order, -Sergeant Graham said with envy in his voice said. ‘You're right, old man. What is missing is a burger and cola, and everything is fine. We are sitting in the warmth and comfort. Do you want to put some music? What music do you prefer?’ ‘Steve, let's we’ll listen to music when we get back to the ship.’ You don’t mind?’ Adams shrugged. ‘As you wish. I wanted to relieve the tension.’ ‘I'm fine, already in the order. At first there was some bad feeling, but now it has passed and I'm fine,’ Graham said. ‘I understand. We did not go take a walk in the Kalahari and certainly not in Arizona. We are now, God knows where,’ Adams replied peering into the terrain. ‘How much is still left?’ Graham asked. ‘Four hundreds meters. But the impression is that the object moved a bit away.’ ‘Where?’ ‘Where,’ Adams scratched his nose. ‘Another half a mile from the ship.’ ‘Do you want to say that Marsiana is not waiting for us at the same place and removed?’ . Its looks like it. Look, we can ask her where she’s now,’ Adams brightened and began to call Marsiana. ‘Strange. We’ve got the signal but no pictures. Marsiana where are you? We have already left for you.’ In the loud speaker came a rustling, crackling, and then the voice of Marsiana. The images are still was not there. ‘We are waiting for you. Conner almost all the time is unconscious.’ ‘The aliens do not bother you longer?’ Graham asked. ‘No. Everything is quiet,’ Marsiana answered and added. ‘It remains to be seen who are the aliens there we or they.’ ‘You're not right,’ Adams intervened. ‘I think this land belong to nobody. Rather they are the same scouts as we are. Well maybe a little earlier they arrived here.’ ‘It is only your assumption, Adams,’ Marsiana said politely. ‘I know,’ Adams even did not think to be angry with her. ‘We are people always love to build various assumptions and knows everything. Even that what we never met before. That is our nature. Right, Doug?’ ‘You're implying that I'm not a human?’ Marsiana just asked. Adams and Graham looked at each other. ‘No, that's not what you think. You incorrectly understood me,’ Adams said quickly. ‘I just wanted to say that you're a very brave girl. You volunteered in exploration on another planet. Saved from death wounded Conner. Among my acquaintances of girls, perhaps, there is not one that could do it all. Even among guys, perhaps, too. I have this ...’ Adams scratched his nose. ‘I admire you. Right, Doug,’ Adams discreetly began to push Graham's elbow as if to hide from Marsiana a secret. ‘By the way how is Conner? Is he still alive?’ ‘You’ve asked already me about his health yet,’ Marsiana said. ‘Really? So, I ask you once more or I can not do that?’ ‘Of course you can. He feels good. It could be worse.’ ‘Well, thank God. Marsiana we do not see you only just hear your voice. Did you check the communication system of the spacesuit?’ ‘Yes. I'm alright. Can the clutter,’ Marsiana answered. ‘Are you still next to Conner?’ Sergeant Graham asked whom all this talk was beginning to annoy. He was already beginning to think that Adams and Marsiana specifically conspired to lull his vigilance. Although not understand why they needed it if they really wanted to divert his attention from something very important for them. “Nonsense,’ he said mentally to himself. ‘As Adams may collude with her if he at all times sit next to me! Rather he also turned into some telepath under the influence of Oberon?” ‘Okay,’ Graham said. ‘We will focus on your voice and instrument readings. On the thermal imagers we see you perfectly.’ ‘Good. We are waiting for you. Be careful,’ Marsiana said. ‘You if you want can not turn off and stay online all time,’ said Adams said surprisingly friendly tone with. ‘We are calmer and you might, too ... Or, at least, Conner fells better. After all, he is now in conscious? ‘In this case you'd better listen to the radio,’ Marsiana said and turned off the connection. Adams grimaced and looked guiltily at his companion. Graham could not resist and smiled. ‘You’re fool, Adams. She is too tough for you.’ Adams sighed: ‘I know, but I wanted to try.’ ‘Did it?’ Adams nodded. ‘Fine. Now get back to your job until we have strayed off course or have not failed in any hole.’ You cannot still forget that accidents on a glacier can you?’ Adams asked curiously. ‘Everything is all right with our course. The rover goes on automation.’ ‘Such accident one remembers for a lifetime,’ Graham answered in a muffled voice. ‘This is exactly,’ Adams agreed with him.’ Do you want to talk about it?’ ‘No,’ Graham cut off. ‘I thought so,’ Adams shrugged. ‘We are getting close,’ he nodded toward the purple, shining figure on the thermal imaging screen. ‘Excellent. I can not wait to return to the ship,’ Graham admitted. ‘Me too,’ Adams agreed with him Adams. ‘The place really does not look like Miami.’ ‘Yeah,’ Graham replied checking just in case the weapons of rover. Touching to the start button of the plasma gun somewhat reassured him. ‘Maybe walk around the plasma with. Check to see if anyone is hiding in the dark,’ he suggested suddenly. ‘Colonel did not say anything about it,’ Adams said. ‘You know the Japanese proverb?’ he asked. The answer to it was the negative gesture of Graham. ‘Do not beat the bushes with a stick, not a snake crawl out,’ said Adams said. ‘In my opinion it is better to do everything quietly and get out of here without any problems. Or are you a different opinion? Besides, we're almost there.’ ‘You're right,’ Graham agreed even though he really wanted to go on the black surface of Oberon by the plasma. Passing another twenty meters the rover stopped. ‘Sir, we have got the right place,’ Adams reported loudly to the ship. I see,’ there was a voice from the speakers of Colonel McKinney. ‘Report the situation.’ ‘So far all is quiet,’ Adams said. ‘We’re getting exit procedure from the rover.’ “So far,” suddenly it’s highlighted in Graham's brain. “Always is that unbearable anticipation of trouble.” ‘We’ll go together or separate?’ Adams asked. ‘You stay. I'll go alone,’ Graham said. ‘If Marsiana is not afraid to be there, so I hope nothing bad will happen with me too. Open the hatch.’ Adams obediently opened the airlock hatch. Graham in silence moved to the transition compartment. A few more seconds and he found himself face to face with the alien planet. Graham gingerly stepped on the ground and froze. ‘Are you all right?’ he heard Adams’s voice in his headphones. ‘Still alright.’ ‘Do you see some aliens? ‘No. Why are you asking me if you can see all yourself?’ ‘I try to support you,’ Adams said. ‘Conner sees?’ Before answering Sergeant Graham consulted with the readings of a portable thermal imager. ‘Yeah I see him. He lies down.’ ‘Okay, what about Marsiana? Where's she with him?’ Graham hesitated. ‘It looks like she is not there, Steve. Conner is alone.’ ‘How it could be?’ Adams did not believe him. ‘Where could she go? We just talked to her.’ Graham shrugged what to do was not easy inside the space suit. ‘Maybe moved somewhere,’ he suggested beginning to call Marsiana by her name. She did not answer. ‘Okay. Bring Conner. We shall find her later,’ Adams said. ‘You are right,’ Graham agreed with his friend and went to Conner. Sergeant Zak Conner recognized his friend and greeted him with a weak gesture of his wrist. Stunned by the picture he saw Graham did not pay attention to it. Stopped in two meters away from him Sergeant Graham could not believe his eyes. The spectacle which he saw shocked him to the deep of his soul Sergeant Conner was lying inside some glowing, bubbling hemisphere, and it seems to feel pretty good. ‘Zak, is it you?’ he asked in a hoarse voice clutching the gun just in case. He was ready for anything. ‘Me,’ Conner said turning his head toward him. What is around you? You're like in a Jacuzzi,’ Graham joked. ‘They have damaged my space suit. That’s why Marsiana has built for me all this to protect me from choking. She from somewhere produced the oxygen, so I'm lying here,’ Conner explained. ‘I see,’ Graham said. ‘What do you think if I try to pull you out of there the tightness of shell will not be broken?’ ‘I do not know. But it is better not to risk it. Do you have a spare container with oxygen?’ ‘Of course I have.’ ‘Give me. Connect to the suit.’ ‘Take it,’ Graham handed Conner the container and waited for Conner connected it to his suit. Conner was easy wounded. It's only at first he thought he had severe burns. In fact the unknown creatures damaged only the spacesuit’s air pipe and the outer protective layer. Most of all was hurt left knee of Sgt Conner. He felt that it was swollen all the time twitches and starts to go numb. ‘How are you here alone? Not afraid?’ Graham asked. ‘I hadn’t enough time for it. First the vehicle exploded and then I was wounded. Marsiana entertained me. By the way, where is she? I wanted to thank her for saving,’ Zak Conner turned his head looking for a girl, but she was not there. ‘Do not kook for her. She is not her,’ Graham said. ‘Is she on board? Conner asked. It would be good. No she left us.’ ‘How? Where she went?’ Graham shrugged. ‘How should I know? I have a suspicion that she feels here like home. Nothing scares. She goes everywhere alone. And now, somewhere was gone.’ ‘Do not talk nonsense. Maybe she checks whether all quiet around,’ Conner said trying to rise. Wounded leg would not obey him. Graham noticed it. ‘Why, bother you?’ ‘Yes,’ Conner said honestly. ‘As if without one leg.’ ‘Okay. Do not twitch. I will help you,’ Graham leaned forward to him. ‘How far is a rover?’ Conner asked clutching his right hand behind his neck. It was not easy to do it in the spacesuit. Graham supported him. ‘There,’ he jerked his head back. ‘Who's with you or you’re alone?’ ‘Adams. We are together. The rest of the unit,’ Graham said. He finally pulled Conner from the ground and suddenly noticed that after his left leg was dragging some white, thin threads. ‘What is that?’ he frowned and stepped on them with his boot of spacesuit. The filaments were cut off and seemingly disappeared into the dark surface. But Graham was not sure about that. ‘What there?’ Conner asked rejoicing that he will soon be on the ship among his comrades. ‘Looks like you pal have taken roots while was lying here,’ Graham joked. ‘What do you mean?’ Conner asked. ‘What are the roots you mean?’ ‘Yeah I do not really know. When I raised you on my hands I noticed like under you that something was, but now everything is gone.’ ‘Are you sure? Maybe it seemed to you? Maybe it’s steam or something else?’ Conner suggested. ‘Maybe you are right,’ Graham agreed tentatively. ‘Okay, it's time.’ He gripped tighter wounded comrade and carried him to the rover. Adams was waiting for them. Inside the rover Graham sat Conner in the vacant chair and buckled the straps. ‘That’s Okay. Let’s go,’ he said to Adams. Adams gladding that everything went without incident began to turning back the vehicle. ‘Hey, Tony,’ he greeted Conner. ‘How do you feel?’ ‘Now I’m fine. Just I feel a bit cold,’ Sgt Conner said. ‘It’s Okay, soon you’ll get warm. We quickly deliver you to the ship.’ ‘It would be grate,’ Conner agreed closing his eyes. They traveled quite a bit as Graham suddenly saw as Conner’s face inside of the helmet was covering with some white hairs. As if he had turned gray and he grew a white beard. However, the beard grew too fast. Just before his eyes. Sergeant Graham gasped. He stiffened. From the ears, mouth and nose of Conner suddenly stretched the white thread too. ‘Stop!’ he shouted pushing Conner away from himself and leaning on Adams. ‘What? What?’ he screamed in fright abruptly stopping the rover. ‘Look at Conner,’ Graham shouted pulling from his seat and rushed to the hatch rover. ‘Save us Jesus!’ Adams exclaimed crossed and rushing after him. ‘What is it with him?’ he asked in the back of his friend. ‘Outside he picked up,’ Graham replied impatiently tugging hatch. He was afraid to turn around and look at Conner. It seemed to him that the white thread of entangled from head to toe and matched them. At this point he was not far from the truth. The unknown white thread already started to break through the skin of wounded Conner, filling all available space inside the suit. Conner that was incredible was alive, but nothing seems to have noticed and felt. ‘When opens that damn hatch!’ Graham exclaimed impatiently and with all his might hit the hatch with butt of his weapon. The hatch obediently drove off to the side and they both fell out of the vehicle. Graham immediately jumped to his feet and started to run away. However running a few steps he stopped. Adams ran on him and almost knocked over. ‘Look where you are running!’ Graham shouted stopping him with his hand. Frightened eyes of Adams were looking at him. ‘What's wrong with him?’ he asked in a trembling voice. ‘Probably he’s got some infection or virus when he was lying on the ground,’ Graham said. ‘I think so at least,’ he felt like his whole body was trembling. ‘We have to report to Colonel. Warn them,’ Adams exclaimed suddenly. From all that has just happened to them, they have completely forgotten about Colonel McKinney and his comrades who were waiting for their return in the troop unit. ‘Right,’ Graham nodded. ‘Do report’ ‘Yeah,’ Adams replied beginning to set the connection with Colonel McKinney. Colonel McKinney did not answer. Adams nervously knocked on the helmet spacesuit by his glove. There was not any result. ‘Nothing,’ he said with despair in his voice. ‘Suddenly they attacked by it, too, and they flew away, and ... and left us alone,’ he said in a trembling voice. ‘Or with them happened the same as with Conner?’ ‘Now we’ll get to know it. Let’s go. The lander should be very close,’ Graham decisively turned and took a few steps in the direction of place where their team was landing. Then he stopped, turned back. ‘What? What?’ Adams asked fearfully. Most of all at this moment he was afraid that Conner will come out of the all-terrain vehicle and entangled by unknown parasites rush after them. From this nightmare one can die! But no one appeared out of rover. ‘We can not leave it so,’ Graham said firmly. ‘What do you mean?’ Adams does not understand him. Nothing explaining Graham ran to open the hatch of the vehicle, one after another threw inside the two incendiary grenades. From the rover burst out the white flame highlighting Graham and ground around the rover within a radius of several meters. Heavy gait Graham returned to Adams with. ‘There was nothing that could help Conner,’ he said in a hollow voice. ‘It was necessary to do everything to ensure that this infection has not spread,’ he made one step to Adams, but he suddenly put out his hand. Graham paused and looked with amazement at him. ‘What are you doing, Steve?’ he asked starting to understand everything. ‘Sorry, Graham, but you're sitting next to him,’ Adams shouted, backing away and pointing at his companion his weapon. ‘What are you trying to say?’ Graham asked slowly, looking at the dark weapon in Adams' hands. ‘Just you were carrying Conner in your arms and could pick up this infection. I do not want to be eaten by pests as happened with Conner. ‘Do you shoot at me?’ Graham asked with the threat in his voice. Adams continued to back away. ‘Do not make me do this. I beg you, Steve does not come near me,’ the weapon in the hands of Adams began to twitch nervously. Graham was covered by the rage. He went on to Adams. ‘Well, shoot! Shoot!’ he shouted. Adams shot then again and again. Sergeant Graham turned into a writhing white fire torch. In the headphones of Adams were heard his wheezing and screaming. Then Graham fell. He did not move. Everything happened so quickly that it seemed to Adams it all happened not with him or it was in a nightmare. He lowered his weapon and walked to his team. Back he never turned around. He felt at that moment very bad himself.
