Lt. Frank Krennon!
Frank abruptly opened his eyes. He sat in
receiving the commander of 12 Panzer Star
Corps in anticipation of their first appointment, the first
after graduating from the Academy West Point.
Lt. Frank Krennon!, A voice from the loudspeaker sounded
insistent. Frank stood up, straightened his uniform, and boldly
entered the kabinet.Za table sat General Links and some type of
in the form of Major Star Corps, but from which half a parsec
reeked of military intelligence. Frank personally had nothing
against intelligence, but the stories of experienced officers
suggests that nechistoplotosti
firm.
-Sit down, sir, - said the Lynx - a
Major Blartfast, he has a deal for you.
Please, Major.
-Thank you. Your profile says that you
the best of the current release, and
you have a chance to prove it: a combat mission. In case of
successful execution, you will be raised in rank. -What sort of
job? - Asked Frank. -At one of the bases in the system of
Procyon established navigation beacon to ships not lost during
ion storms that are out there quite often. Protection framework
carried Droids four types, 35 pieces, which
controlled by six people. One of the robots during a patrol
base in area was intercepted by these creatures and
reprogrammed to destroy the Persian signal and establishing
control over the other mechanisms. Your task is to destroy the
buoy. -See ... And why me? Surely in
Army officers are no more marines?
-If we had at hand was someone
more experienced you, we would, of course, sent him, but after
the defeat at Antares, we have every professional on the
account. All-clear - Krennon said, "I'll fly
alone or give me someone to
company?
-Give, give ... You naznachaeshsya commander
special squad "REBEL STAR".
Frank reflected: "Recon ... Hmm ... Damn
probably some sverhkrutye supermen. Bind, and then embarrass ...
And, okay, was not, agree!
As if answering his thoughts, the general
Links said:
"You just do not think they will do everything
themselves, and you'll watch and admire
professor: for them it is also the first task, as well as for
you.
In Frank's little eyes on his forehead did not come out:
-You mean you want to say that the green
officer will command the same apprentice?
"Do not worry, lieutenant: you will send" the right way, "Major
Blartfast.
Frank evening in the pub "Cat House"
told all his friend and classmate Kurt Lewin, who for a fight on
Release promoted to the rank of second lieutenant. Kurt excited
and shouted that old Lynx roof completely gone. "
Here is a table concocted a report about
Enrollment Levine squad "REBEL STAR".
In the morning, waking up in the chamber in the military police
are long remembered, what they do not liked those guys with the
destroyer Gremyashchy.
In the barracks they were surprised: next
reprimand Lieutenant Krennonu and ml. Lt. Levin hung an order
appointing Kurt tech squad "REBEL STAR".
The next day, an acquaintance
with a group: eight boys and three girls
sitting in the room and under the statute, "gloat superiors."
Frank Kurt explained the task, after which the room
was silence. Then she got Rita Rampolla,
low dark-haired girl of twenty. She asked:
- And with what weapons we will go our way? After all, there's
probably a lot of atomic trash: one good shot, and all at 30
kilometers will go to hell!
- Take a pulsating rifles MK-3000L
and a pair of FOTON-22, well, of course, Ray
swords.
Jasper PROUNI asked:
- And what about health care? - Frank
with a smile, looked at the seven foot black man that put seems
to be in his pants before operation, and said:
- We will give out two multifunctional medical kit, and that
you are not afraid ponesesh you and one of them. The second bear
... Er ... Helen Fleyn.
After that no more questions arose, and the whole company
went to the "Cat House". On the morning of Krennona called
general Links and reported that to assist the detachment will
be supported by four armed robot AF-77DM, that were popular in
the army due to the fact that they had armor that will
withstand a direct hit from the ion gun. His
weapons "BLAST TORCH-11M" penetrated even
700-mm armor, but it had one drawback - the range of the BT-11M
was ... 11 meters.
Frank thought that at worst, and
it's a good idea and asked:
- And when is the flight? The guys in full readiness.
- Tomorrow and flight. At 10:00 boot
on the gunboat "Yellow River" and forward.
Exactly ten in the morning May 5, 2629
with the Earth military base Sveaborg "
started gunboat "Yellow", and
high speed went in the direction of Procyon. In addition to the
crew she had on board number of "REBEL STAR". Three days later,
nasal scanners ship appeared System Procyon. The commander of
the "Yellow River" ordered to start braking. As always, if exit
from hyperspace, the stars of solid shining corridor turned
first to the dash, and then in the individual points.
The commander looked at the radar screen and ...
- Alarm! Enemy destroyer ON
TOWARDS THE 2-7-1!
Resounded throughout the ship, "Bell
loud battle "- the alarm, which
probably would have raised even the dead. The team took their
seats according to the combat schedule. After a few seconds
resoundingly swept echo the first salvo.
Krennon climbed into the conning tower. The commander of
the gunboat said to him: - We will throw you under fire. Nothing
can not be helped. So tell her, let
prepared.
- They are ready, sir, and take their place in the troop
compartment.
Terrible blow shook the "Yellow River" - is
got charge 105-megawatt ion guns. Heard the groans of the
wounded.
Under heavy fire gunboat approached Procyon-8, and down to
the height 180 km, has opened a landing slot. Lifeboat
paratroopers barely had time to withdraw to a distance of 200
meters, as gunboat shook another blow. The commander ordered
the release photon torpedoes. Two bright-purple lines splash a
line space. By dazzling flash away from "Yellow" realized that
one of the torpedoes hit the target. Damaged destroyer Alien
ретировался.Удовлетворенный this outcome the commander ordered
to lie on reverse course.
And at this time in the landing boat pilot Jim DiGriz
squad tried to align flying in atrocious weather,
which includes: rain, thunderstorms,
fog and low clouds. In addition,
There seems to be another problem: past,
leaving behind a smoky trail, carried
las missiles, surface to air. Marines shivered and pressed
closer to her weapons. Krennon ordered:
- Everybody be ready to jump with Jetpack.
The second missile has been very close,
and the third struck against the left stabilizer. There was a
smell of smoke, and Frank ordered all jump. The first pushed
the robot for they started to jump and people. Frank jumped
the latter, and has already flown thirty meters,
saw their boat exploded.
After landing, the first thing Frank
included radio and began to intensively induce
for her those who survived. Fortunately, all
were alive, but shrapnel from the rocket damaged a leg sniper
squad, Joey Simpson. While Helen fleyn through medical
Module restored leg Joey Krennon
sent the droid and the two men to investigate.
Volunteered a master of disguise Jill Hamilton and the
Indian-cherokki Don Kalyan. They both were experts on the part
of the silent movement - the Don even had a nickname
"Ghost", and Jill managed to quietly pass even a sheet of tin.
The scouts returned an hour later. Kalyan said that the
base has four outputs, but enter through them will be very
difficult, as the doors to escape the code, and codes, which
they were given at the headquarters, you can used as toilet
paper. - Okay, "said Frank, - opposed. Come
way: in front of two robots, and Billy Bragg;
followed by 30 meters main force chain in aregarde - the robot
and ... Nelson Smith. Major Blartfast you do not mind?
- No, that's right.
- That's good. Questions? No? Well
excellent. Come on.
After half an hour before jumping on the rocks
squad stretched base "delta" - a bunch of
domes, tubes and other crap. Frank
ordered to separate. Go to north entrance
went, accompanied by a droid Jasper PROUNI and Nelson Smith. To
the south - Joy Simpson, Jill Hamilton and Jim DiGriz under to
executing Kurt Lewin, armed with the photon. Try their luck
through the eastern door went to Rita and Don Rampolla Kalona,
in of the robot. To everyone's surprise, with
they went and Major Blartfast. Frank
thought that not everything is clean and quiet
said Rita and Don:
- You're there keep an eye to this major
not done stupid things.
Sam Krennon Ellen Fleyn, Billy
Bragg and Leonid Trotsky went to
main entrance.
Before the group went on
their places, Frank explained to each of its
problem:
- Will begin work the southern group. Kurt, you're
photon zavyazhesh fight. You and your team take first strike
and will try to contracted over as much as possible of the
enemy. Our group will cover you. Most importantly - save
charges: in the jump we've lost almost all of our
supplies. If someone has a grenade -
leave to them here - it can lead to
atomic explosion. Further, the task of the northern
groups - on the sly to get to the lighthouse and
try to disable it, if it does not - to destroy the control
panel. Eastern Group will hit the enemy's rear, where he
concentrated in the western part of the base. Questions? - Tell
me commander, but why this base can not blow up?
- And because this base in the first place, it is worth
about ... a bunch of your annual salary,
-Suddenly said Maj. Blartfast, and second, it is our only fit
life-fortified position on this planet.
Then why it was so poorly guarded? - Asked Trotsky - why it is
so poorly defended?
- The command was going to build here
fort with the center for the repair of ships,
But defeat at Antares will make you forget for a while this
idea. And anyway, you too many want to know.
- Well, if no more questions, then went
- Krennon and said, straightening a photon at
shoulder, stealthily went to the base.
First, the outer door of all groups
passed immediately, without problems, and stopped before the
inner doors. Attempts in Central and Southern groups reveal
locks failed. Then Frank ordered his droid to shoot on goal.
When the smoke cleared, everyone saw the big break. Krennon
conveyed this to other groups, and soon the echo told the roar
of explosion - is "opened" the door Lewin Group.
From behind the door no sound.
Billy Bragg cautiously looked out from behind cover and slowly
inspected the hall opened before him. In the middle of the room
stood a large all-terrain vehicle to the left were three boxes
in that there were two similar devices. On the right stood a
number of cylinders with acetylene and could see two doors,
behind which according to the map, should be a group of
Levin. Something did not like Bill in this
picture, but he could not understand what it is.
And I suddenly realized: silence. Such silence is not
could be natural. This could be
just ... "F-r-r-f", hissed past the discharge
blaster. Billy had scarcely otprygnut
ago, as a wall hit another ray.
He Collected with the spirit, leaped into the doorway and ...
saw no one. Bragg took two steps in
direction of all-terrain vehicle, and saw at
He jumped a little, no more than a meter
in height, the robot on tracks. Billy shot him and saw how the
robot literally shattered to pieces. A dull roar caused Bragg
to turn your head in side of the box. Bill saw it
rolls droid class "security guards", and
hasty retreat out the door.
Frank said:
- What is it?
- Small debris, so there is a big appeared.
Frank otshel from break and ready to shoot. So did the
rest. Everyone stood on their toes and not on discontinuity of
sight from the door. "Guards" for some reason did not appear.
Krennon tense shrugged his gate and fotonometa
jumped into the doorway. Twenty meters, he
saw a 2.5-meter robot and gave it to
long queue. Three or four carriers
hitting the target. The droid was moved to
Frank, but then the smoke out of it, and the robot exploded
with a deafening crash. Then whistled over his head a few more
rays, and Frank otsupil for saving a break. - All to hide
behind the door - said Krennon - they do not attack when you
are outside the base.
Meanwhile, events in the group Levin took place in a
different scenario. Entering inside the base, people saw a
corridor running left. Levin took fotonomet at the ready and
slowly and cautiously went ahead. Reaching
to the end, he saw another corridor, more
long. On one side was a dead end, and with
another it was moving something. This was
huge, about four meters in height
robot, all zakovany in armor. From afar
He seemed just a mountain of steel, belching
fire. Kurt sat down on one knee and opened
fire. He drove into a monster seven charges,
but he seems to have not noticed them. Retreating
Kurt drove the enemy has three beams, from which any person
would have turned into a firebrand, but damn robot is only
slightly pokachnulsya.Kurt with curses flew in
"Waiting room" where there were other
members of his group, and shouted to his droid:
- Destroy the enemy!
Droid seems to be just that, and waited.
At full speed he dashed toward the enemy, not
paying any attention to received
strikes. He went to his combat distance
and fired a volley from his monstrous weapons.
Of a short gun to "shoulder" AF-77DM flew a bright green light
and hit the most center of the enemy "MASTER-Droids." There was
a explosion, all visible space clouded
smoke. Soon the smoke cleared, and the paratroopers
saw a great heap of metal. Kurt ordered:
- Guys, zasyadte a wreck and shoot at anything that appears in
the end corridor. But I do see what you can
help central.
He went to vidnevsheysya nearby door, which, according to
a map should was allowed into the hall with all-terrain
vehicles. Kurt listened. Behind the door, it seems, was a
full-scale war. He opened the door and cautiously peered over
her. Levin saw Frank, shooting at a ball on
caterpillars, which immediately exploded
and probably headed to your e-mail hell. Behind Kurt shots rang
out. "It seems that began," - thought Kurt occupying the
position next to Jill, Joy and droid. But what he meant by
saying "began," had nothing to do with that started in reality.
On three men simply climbed a lot of different types of
mechanisms. Group shot back as I could. But goddam robots,
receiving
damage, leaving the battlefield, where some were repaired, and
again climbed and climbed the position of the wreckage of
robots is becoming more and more. Joy Simpson growled another
incinerator, or seventh, or eighth clip: - What the hell we
were told that there is 35 bots! Personally, I expected to do
everything detachment thirty-five shots, and potomv "Cat
House". And here I have only four clips remain, and these nits
here yet seems nemeryannom.
They rolled on the fragments of another
a "client" for AF-77DM. New "MASTERDROID" moved slowly, his
scanners tried to find the target. Marines hid for the ruins of
his brother, and through the cracks followed the enemy. All the
other robots enemy went back to make way for armored
monster. Over the place recently, the battle hung
silence, broken only by the clank of tracks MASTER-Droid "and
the crackle of burning wiring broken into pieces by robots.
Several small robots popping out, so that
not to interfere with a major in the room where there were
ATVs. Here they were disappointed. Lieutenant Krennon his group
did not asleep, and opened such a fire that robots -
"Patrol" hastened back, leaving
two smoldering heap of metal and wires.
Meanwhile, MASTER-Droid "was approaching. He was already
ten meters when Kurt ordered his "Guardian Angel"
they dubbed AF-77DM, destroy the enemy. "Angel" raised his gun
and fired, and when the smoke cleared, all initially did not
believe their eyes: "MASTER" walked on as if nothing had
happened, only place luchemeta shoulder gaping hole. However,
the shoulder and something he was not: the entire left half of
the robot was a mish-mash of metal, plastic and wire. Jill and
Joy shot at the same time, a little later shot Kurt. "MASTER"
was still a step or two, puffed and rattled collapsed to the
floor. Marines shouted "Hurrah!" and nearly came under fire the
other robots. Another two minutes later with the rest
robots has been finished. Kurt stood up and surveyed the
battlefield. It is estimated that they have destroyed here and
nine of droids. Kurt immediately reported this Krennonu. Frank
responded and said that they, too, had stopped the two, but
still can not get out of shelters - on them beats droid sniper
because all-terrain vehicle.
At this time, Joey, who oversaw the corridor, he saw the
smoke in the corridor ... person walking towards the group.
Jill asked for it on the radio call sign, but
He did not respond. Joy said:
- Maybe it was someone from the eastern group? - And cried -
Hey, who are you? - Can someone from the station staff had
survived? - Suggested Jill. - Do not talk nonsense, - said
Kurt. Unknown was already thirty meters from the barricade.
Suddenly, Joey swore, and before he could intercept it, jumped
out and went to meet a stranger, crying:
- Hey, man! What the hell are you doing here!
Kurt suddenly shock hit. He
yelled:
Joy! On the floor! Give me a chance to shoot him!
Turning around, Joey opened his mouth, intending to say
something, but somehow absurd waved his hands, turned, and with
Kurt Jill saw that on his back blackens
burnt spot.
- Jill, shoot! This robot android!
After a series of shots android turned into a pile of
rubble. Jill ran to lay motionless, Joey, and bent
over him. Joey lay on his back, breathing heavily.
Kurt aired on the radio:
- Urgent need medical assistance, hurry up.
Jill raised her head:
- Let no hurry, he died.
They carefully laid the body of Joey
Thus potyazhelevshee to the wall, then, dropping
the robot forward, went down the corridor.
Under Krennona heard about the death of
Joey Simpson, but they could not help -
They also fought off an attack. They caught
the enemy more cunning. Robots for shelters
doing two or three shots and then hid. Heavy armored bulkhead
is the gateway was broken in several places. One of the men -
Leon Trotsky, had already been wounded, and Ellen Fleyn restore
its multi-functional kit.
Krennon contacted the eastern group and ordered them to
enter inside. Entered request from the northern group. They
asked when did they start, what Frank said that so far remained
in place, yet is not the time.
Eastern Group cautiously penetrated
into the database. They were in a large room with two doors.
Don took the Kalon position near the western door, Rita
Major - in the north.
- Maybe we could go further? - Asked timidly
Rita - they are probably all on the west
side of the base. Hear the shooting.
- Do not talk nonsense, - said the major Blartfast - they
certainly left guard here, so just in case.
They looked out the door, and immediately cleared, because
they saw "Patrol" which turns in their direction with a clear
intention to deliver paratroopers trouble. Rita did not wait
for the reaction robot and pulled down his "head" tags shot.
But it seems that history likes to repeat itself, and
evidently wishing to avenge his brother, climbed on the marines
destroyed a lot of friends, "Patrol." In a word, started the
massacre, similar to that in which visited the soldiers Levin.
Yet they hold, not letting the enemy to penetrate
into the room. Ironically, their droid, obeying some "glitches"
in its program, lurched forward. He has a bullet flew through
the door, and pulled, sneeze on entering, kudato aside. When he
disappeared around the corner, Don whistled in surprise:
- Wow ... All I've seen, but
the robot to have managed it with fear and deserted - it's
something new!
But as it turned out, they were surprised
nothing - soon the corner came an explosion,
then rolled out desperately dymivshy
MASTER-Droid ", and after him, their
AF-77DM, who also smoked and sparks, but
less.
- Yes, he also sensed that husky, that's
raced there - Rita said.
- It can not be - jeered Blartfast, shoot better, quick-witted.
Meanwhile, Kurt and Jill walked down the corridor past the
wreckage of robots. Suddenly, Kurt stopped abruptly:
- Listen, you do not notice?
Jill looked around:
- No, why?
- Do you take the number of us.
- Two, because Joey was killed ... Damn, where's
DiGriz this? Could this ragged pilot
scared? Listen, maybe something happened ... We ran to the exit!
They ran back and ordered the droid
stay and defend. Barely climbing over a bunch of scrap metal,
they ran into the room where the output, and saw Jim DiGriza.
He sat against the wall, his head drooping on his breast, and
seemed to be asleep. The whole floor was covered with blood
that flowed from Jim from everywhere: from the head of the
shoulder of the feet. Nearby lay his rifle and a beam sword,
and at the exit - three spaced in pieces of an android.
Jill whispered:
- Since then he covered our rear, and we knew nothing. He died,
and we did what not only accused of ...
- Do not blame yourself, and generally went away.
He did not help.
They caught up awaiting their robot and
went further, to help East
group.
And to the east, it seems the time has come hard and
unpleasant. Enemies settle, and twice threw marines outside the
base. Don has not participated in battle. He sat at the
entrance to the base and crunched dental pain: next to him
exploded balloon with acetylene and fragments Don was flogged
by his side.
Mayor Rita shouted:
- Cover me, I'll try to get
under the guise of a droid in depth.
- Okay, Major, do not you just throw
one woman, and even in bad company.
- Well, they went together.
Major swung and threw a smoke
checker. She flew about five meters, fell and
She went from a dense smoke that through
He had not seen even the rays of blasters.
Shut the robot, Rita, and Maj.
ran forward. They successfully passed the barrier, when gd
droid seems again decided to go hunting. He suddenly
turned back to the right and melted in the smoke. Maj.
I saw the door and shouted for Rita:
- Hurry up here!
They were in a former medical
block. Major took some flask with a clear liquid, drank some
out and handed it to Rita: - Net medical. Drink it, feel better.
Rita swallowed, coughed and handed
Major flask.
- Come on, - he said - we need to
residential unit.
- Why - Rita was surprised - we need to look no bed of staff,
and the lighthouse! - What we need, I decide! - Said
Major, - I have you with me did not call, she asked for it.
They stopped at the door of an apartment block. Here Blartfast
said: - Wait a minute here, you never know who will, and I
instantly when driving.
He entered the apartment block. He was not
ten minutes. Rita peered inside. Major sat near an open safe,
and something feverishly thought. Rita looked into his
over his shoulder. Mayor recounted some
ampoule ...
- So-so - ironically handed Rita, our valiant intelligence
plunge again in the shit. All this confusion has started a
in order to get "PSIHON. Confess, Major, on this basis has
never been lighthouse, eh?
Blartfast flushed. He looked with hatred at Rita, and his
hand slowly crept to the rifle. Rita quietly cleaned up his
weapon on Blartfasta and said: - Do not even think Slarti.
- Kkkto you - wheezed Major.
- I'm from the department of internal investigations.
Special Agent Rampolla. We have long suspected you and with the
consent of the general Lynx, we decided to carry out this
operation. We know that you hold here is not a lighthouse, but
to manufacturing plant, "PSIHONA -
We had not anticipated. I think the president will be
interesting to learn about what engaged on the sly intelligence.
Outside the door heard the noise. Rita turned to look at,
and at the same Major moment rushed at her, knocked down and
began to choke.
Rita is already choked when Major
suddenly, as if bounced to the wall. Rita opened her eyes and
saw PROUNI, who guided the rifle on the forehead of Major.
Nelson Smith helped her up and asked:
- What is it you're not pleased?
- This son of a bitch tripped us. There is no
Yes and no lighthouse - they did here
"PSIHON. Here, enjoy.
With these words, Rita handed guys ampoule. "PSIHON" was
the most dangerous psychotropic substance. It makes a person
obedient servant, are not able to resist.
Jasper PROUNI translated hates
look at the majors. He shrank from the whole bad feeling.
- All scum - muttered Jasper - right now we
you send to the light.
Jasper took the globus major of the throat, pulled out his
knife, and ... - Ran off, freak out - said, turning away, Rita
- Come, tell everything Krennonu.
They went from living compartment and headed in the
direction of the shots.
Fight with the main forces of the enemy, it seems,
came to an end. Where only one can lay on the floor of the
remains of destroyed robots. For the Marines, too, everything
was not very smoothly: all were at least easy, but wounded.
Their gear was much battered, shops machines were almost empty
(in pouches were all one reserve, and who has not been
in general), but the morale of the garrison was high.
High despite the loss of three of the four
droid and the death of their comrades.
Ellen Fleyn bandaged wound Billy
Bragg, who is struck a pile of metal, formerly used all-terrain
vehicle. Bill smiled and went into one of the corridors where
flashed damaged "security guards". Ellen
shouted after him:
- Did you ever have 'thank you' said!
- Thank you - came a voice out of the bend.
- On health - Ellen muttered, picking
first aid kit. She was unhappy that no
killed by a single robot. Ellen took the rifles and ran after
Bragg. Around the bend, she saw the following picture: on the
floor was littered with rifle Bill and he palil kneeling on the
impending it to the robot from a pistol. "GUARD"
felt only six shots. Ellen
not fired, fearing to get to Bragg. After the sixth shot droid
stumbled like a raid on a barrier, but continued
go out of inertia. Billy made a mistake here: he fired the
seventh time in agonizing robot. He has not acted protection
system, and the shot landed in the hole in the body of
"security guards" and sank into a reactor. There was an
explosion, Ellen drifted to three meters, and she lost
consciousness. When she opened her eyes, the smoke has cleared,
and Ellen saw the head. His head was lying separately from the
body, and Ellen does not immediately realized that it was the
head Billy Bragg. Ellen felt sick. She leaned against the
wall zakrylv eyes, and stood so kakoeto time without moving.
Meanwhile Krennon and Trotsky were driven
latest "security guards". He shot back,
not letting go of the paratroopers of the shelters.
Frank yelled:
- Throw dymovuhu!
Leon threw his sword, but the droid clear
salvo destroyed it in flight. Checker exploded, thick smoke
enveloped the paratroopers. "Security guard" does not pereminul
take advantage of this and rushed to the attack. It could have
ended very badly for Krennona and Trotsky, but suddenly out of
the smoke, like a demon from hell, Nelson Smith appeared with
radiation sword in hand. Quickly sorentirovavshis in
situation, he waved his sword, and half-robot has fallen off to
the side. Standing over a defeated enemy, Nelson picturesquely
set foot on it and said: - Save the officer put the order, but I
not proud, and so agree to drink
in the bar "Cat House".
- Well, will you drink! Thank you for
assistance. What the hell are you doing here?
- You know, Captain, it's pretty long
history. You tell her Rita.
Rita told him everything, apologizing for
that for some time, "observed the incognito." Krennon said:
- But I felt that here it is unclean. I just did not cut in: if
they manufacture here, why are we here
headed? After all, intelligence is its
Special Forces ...
- It was a trap for them, prepared by the department of
internal investigations. Topics a plant, or rather, the
laboratory disguised so well that you would still did not
understand, so they are not particularly worried.
- And why send a "green" party, where there are no experts on
such systems - guessed someone. - Yes - sadly replied, Rita -
and I hope you realize that this was done good intentions.
- "Good intentions lined the road to
hell "- quoted approached Don Kalon
- And do something you should be shot, but okay, if it comes to
"PSIHONA", the Reach the president and tell me what these goats
are doing. Tak - said Krennon - here we seem to be
all the sewn. Now we need to break
Inside the lighthouse ... That is, ugh, lab. And by the way,
where still run hither and Levin and company? Call them, there
is nothing in the corners oshivayutsya.
Meanwhile, Kurt and Jill went to the southern corridors of
the station, carefully inspecting every corner in search of the
enemy. They heard the shooting stopped, but
nevertheless continued to search. Only when
they transferred the call, they are more relaxed. Now they were
in the direction of to her and softly spoken. Unexpectedly
their way blocked by Dam, which formed from collapsed walls,
kotoryyu, obviously a long shot stricken in battle
droid. Jill and Kurt had to go back
road along which they marched to battle. Kurt
've been thinking about something, then cleared his throat,
and said:
- Jill, you know ... That is, I would like
to say that ... Well, in general, you're a lovely girl, and
maybe we could ... Come on, if left alive, meet,
go somewhere ... If you do not mind, of course ...
Jill put her hand on his shoulder, and
said, smiling:
- I do not mind, but I hope it does not go into
"Cat House"!
Kurt amused:
- How can I keep the lady in a cheap bar?
We'll go with you, Marquis, in the best restaurant in Paris!
Jill laughed, too:
- Only count, one condition: if the first night will pester, get
in the face!
- How could you think so! - A joke
Kurt got angry, clicking his heels. The tension between them
after the sentence Kurt was asleep, and they ran to the other,
joking in the same spirit. Suddenly, Kurt slowed and then
stopped altogether. Expression of fun with slipped from his
