X.
Gosseyn not understand what happened to Fabiana, but the idea
that he now no one is dependent, gave him great pleasure.
Because now it is completely disposed of the ball IS-9 and
could do with him everything. No, he never thought to violate
the order of Prescott, in any case he had to find out what
happened and, if necessary, to provide assistance.
Thoughts Gosseyna interrupted siren and he abruptly went
black eyes. Three minutes later it's gone and he looked at the
console. On small accessory flashes: "The ship can not leave
the hyperspace". He pressed the key on which was portrayed by a
question mark - a detailed report on your computer. Soft female
voice, something that reminded him a voice now, Patricia, said:
- Exit from the subspace may not be realized, sir. In this area
is activated Supernova.
Gosseyn could not close his mouth.
- K-as-kai ssverhnovaya?
Navigator and mechanic ran up to him.
- Supernova, coordinates: IIERSQ-9914, ADSIT9-1002, GH-675.
Nineteenth lower corners of the cube. ISSIORION had a name.
Gosseyn closed, finally, the mouth. And sat in the chair.
Stand it no longer could. For there, on Fabian left his family,
Patricia, friends ... Now they are not left and dust. It did
not fit into his head.
There was a sad pause. Nobody knew what to say. All
were badly shaken. The whole world was destroyed.
Finally, Michael, navigator, went to Gosseynu and tried to
calm.
- You'll never understand it, Mike. You came out of the
League, you have no one here ... Leave me alone. We're going
back.
Gosseyn stood up and quickly went to his room.
Bowl two days later returned to the place where they left the
squadron. All this time Gosseyn did not leave his room.
Navigator, which at times was overcome by the wild rage at the
man who blew up colony, led the ship on a rapprochement with
the squadron, which has already appeared pale dot on the far
edge of the radar. But the radio message yet could not be sent.
To catch up with the squadron, the navigator had to make a
giant leap into space. Reviewing the roster then, he did not
believe my eyes: IS-9 surpassed conceivable record for
giperperehodu on superdalnie distance of 2.5 times! Here is a
ship, he thought.
Finally the ship was last out of the subspace. Michael
sent a telegram squadron. In short, he told all that had
happened, gave his coordinates and asked to wait for them.
P.S. Supernova - is when a star explodes ...
XI.
Prescott was no less shocked by the other occurred after
reading a telegram. The squadron stopped. We all had a feeling
of emptiness in heart. People have lost the point. In their
eyes, life has lost meaning. Thus vanished all of that with
which was connected their whole lives. They lost the rear.
They had nowhere to go. They do not to whom it was report.
Their expedition has lost all meaning. But appeared kakoeto
creepy, panicky feeling of freedom.
The balls were hung in a dark void. From the shiny surface
reflected glare of the stars. The center of the galaxy was only
a few hundred parsecs. Distance that the ball overcomes the
three day. At small distances, oddly enough, took much
longer than long. This was explained by the following factors.
Log into hyperspace or subspace, as it still called, takes a
few seconds. Of course, the deepest inputs into the subspace
lasted ten minutes. But more than ten minutes a man could not
stand it. At best, he went with mind. At worst - instant death.
And nothing would prevent this process. The deeper was the
entrance to the subspace, the farther the ship was moving in
ordinary space. With the depth Immersion, the probability of
exit angle and there is no need long-term displacement in the
subspace itself. If the dip was small, the exit angle was
small, which made it possible to make giperperehody a
relatively "small" range, which was subject simply moving in
jet engines anamezonnyh. But the growing path in the hyperspace
that compelled it to hold much more time than at greater
depths.
Slowly the squadron had reached the outskirts of a system
and Prescott decided to go into orbit. IS-9 was not far, just a
few days simple flight. In the subspace log was already
pointless. We all had some sort of a painful feeling of fear of
the unknown. Now they could protect only a technique, which
they possessed at the moment. There was nowhere to retreat.
A long time it was enough of this technique ...? Nobody
KNOW ........
XII.
Gradually the squadron approached the small lifeless planet
and Prescott has decided to "heave to", that is, just wait
Gosseyna. Balls went into orbit. Had to wait two days. Long
thought to Prescott, because IS-9 was very close - a few
parsecs. But with such a minimum distance giperperehod was
already impossible.
There was nothing, and Prescott has equipped the boat with
the industry robots to replenish minerals. The boat was
separated from the ball and began to approach the planet. It
was a complete automaton. About any EVENT boat and robots
immediately reported to the command post. The boat is a small,
driven to automatism, cargo hook, which was not even the remote
control. In extreme cases, it is controlled remotely. He had
three symmetrically arranged seating and engine load
compartment on top. That's all, not counting the powerful
on-board computer and systems avtostykovki.
So, soon the shuttle disappeared from sight, hiding behind the
planet. He approach, gradually reducing the radius of the
orbit. Robots were equipped with first class equipment, which
allows even from outer space to seek out the most mineral-rich
places. Therefore, after a while one of the robots, who took
over command of the landing, reported that the optimal location
was found. The boat began to approach.
Prescott still could not grasp what he heard. Issioriona no
more. His world for some fraction of a second turned into dust.
He would immediately went in search of the killers. But on the
other hand, it looks like they were the only ones who survived
and who has at least knew something about the explosion.
Therefore, the purpose of Prescott was still in the fact to
race Issiorionyan not extinguished and the incident would have
learned all existing human world. Believe me, it was huge. No
did not know exactly how many human planets belong to humanity.
Millions of vehicles went into the unknown, to create colonies.
Many of them had time to send a distress signal, spending on
this transfer the rest energy. Other broadcast, that have found
refuge and organized colony. Third, while there were eighty
percent, disappeared without a trace. Many of them found
"Living" planet, while others were simply eaten by time and
space. All of this was "suicide boats", or DIE SHIP, as their
were called. Typically, these were huge, well-protected, but
ill-armed ships, the crew of which consisted of one hundred -
one hundred and fifty people. It was mostly family. No, they
all know that hardly ever come back, but were owned by
some thirst for the unknown, like new.
Long ago, around the star appeared ISSIORION two ships.
Earlier in these places there was no one. The ships were very
much damaged, so finding a planet with a normal, suitable for
living conditions were for them a miracle. Especially because
they have fuel stocks came to an end. The first ship was a huge
sized and somewhat resembled a giant flattened rectangular
box. It was the transportation. The second was a minor assault
cruiser with a crew of twelve people. He served as the escort
function was most damaged. On "TREFIX", transport, had a
coordinator, a device that lets you know where the ship and to
initiate the galaxy. This device was then a very rare and is
only a very powerful protection and the big ships. But on
"TREFIX" it has been damaged, so half a century the people had
no idea where they were. Later, when the Cryolite built radio,
they did it learn. Thus was formed the colony Issiorion, which
subsequently became the resort.
Now everything is destroyed ...
- Destroyed ... - Repeat aloud with deep thoughtfulness
Prescott. Yes, he will avenge them, but it will be later.
