Chapter 2
– Word Theo! – The voice of Son notified speech astrophysics. Theo stood up, picked up the paper in a folder and walked slowly to the podium. Hall was staring intently at the young man with a thousand four hundred pairs of eyes. Finally, he went up to the podium. Sometime scribbled leaves rustled. In the guise of it all read that quiet confidence that comes with the wisdom of the venerable scholar.
– Dear colleagues, representatives of their planets. The issues of discussion question of finding intelligent beings … – Hall exploded with indignation, someone even whistled. As the shots rained down replica of his address. Trying to drown Hall, Theo said loudly: – I’ll give you half an hour to vote, and if the majority for, the Bureau will set out the further course of action as early as this
direction…
– He hopes to have the Presidency! Hall again buzzed like a beehive. Theo did not fold the paper in the folder, it left the platform the howling audience. In the lobby of the window, which is clearly visible from the area, found his Son.
– I warned you!
– I think our project is all over…
– You need to give the judgment of scientists. Thank God that I know you well, and you satisfied with the Presidency, but to save you is not within our power. Theo looked down. On the cheeks began to play tough nodules, hands clenched in impotent rage beating heart. Son waited, looking at Theo.
– At most times you disappear. Theo looked closely at his colleague.
– I mean canned station disappear until the passions subside. Theo sighed. The Court of scientists – a terrible punishment that deprives many privileges. Unexpected offer Son spoke about and that he would not support Theo if he does not accept that single “Straws” as salvation. The scientist looked at Son. His gray eyes sparkled bewilderment and disappointment. But we must not tarry, otherwise the Council would strike him from its ranks.
– I agree! – Theo curtly.
He came home late. Spent a long time with bulky clothing, removing warm and awkward things in the hallway. A walk in the frost-bound city has calmed somewhat shattered nerves. Theo mouth sighed as the soft dressing gown took him in his arms, and went into the bedroom. Flashing eye signals beamed and darkness of the room, calling host to the phone. Theo reluctantly came up, clicked the button, and the same moment the bell rang.
– Hello! – He said into the phone.
– Oh, is that you? Using A benefits, and we have to cut back on their rations for you!.. – Shouted the man in the tube, a hoarse voice. Theo automatically watered up. Took both hands behind his head and rubbed his temples, eyes, then pulled the cord phone, turn it off. At this time, the doorbell rang.
– A nightmare, no rest because of one stupid mistake. He abruptly pulled the bedroom door and found himself in the blink of an eye at the exit. When the doorway formed a sufficient gap it just got stranger. Hanging by a safety chain, he blurted out:
– Here lives an astrophysicist Theo? – And, looking lively brown eyes, the host continued satisfaction: – Theo, you must listen to me!
– I do not take at night. – Irritated began astrophysicist trying to slam the door. But the stranger leaned into the doorway unto and has wielded it, trying to open the door. Theo did not expect such arrogance, in utter amazement stepped of the door.
– You have to listen to me, or I crack the door! Threatened with a stranger.
– Speak! – Gave Theo. The stranger, a few calmer, began haltingly: – I am a mathematician Pontius! – These words were enough. She remembered the brilliant mathematician working in the field of theoretical modeling of spatial relationships, and Theo was carefully listened.
– I am a mathematician Pontius! – He repeated! – I was able to prove existence of unbalanced energy systems and calculate the receiver of this energy-trap. With that he brought to the door parcel gap: – Here is the model, we have to show you. The mysterious behavior of Pontius instilled in Theo hope that that the mathematician does not know anything about the incident to the Council, and he strongly rejected the chain and opened the door.
– Come in, Pontius! Nervously, mathematician took off his clothes. Soon they were sitting in the bedroom Theo at the table, on which Pontius demonstrated his invention. Theo listened absently. He knew of outstanding abilities guest, but also knew about his fanatical obsession with achieving the goals. Thus, letting mathematics, decided to get rid of him, when he finally ran out. Meanwhile Pontius continued: – And deflected arrow pharmacy scales. What is this energy? I asked myself the same question … – Theo was not listening. He thought about Leah. Now that threatened his name, he had become an alcoholic in space as junk, and she, what will happen to her? Dream warned not to tell anyone, even Lee. The image of girl with green as turquoise, light brown eyes and a lush waterfall curly hair standing in the imagination of the unfortunate Theo. The words of Pontius against it heard before consciousness as the roar of the storm in the warm ocean latitudes Su.
– The light heats up … – Continued to Pontius. And then for the first time he glanced at the impassive face of Theo. On the curious, with a slightly upturned nose, the face of mathematics reflected gloomy grimace. He sat silently for a moment, studying astrophysics, then slammed
with all his might with his fist on the table. Devices jumped on the table, glass of water and poured down a bathrobe. Theo woke up: – Have you finished? – He asked harshly.
– No, I’m used to being listened to me! – Retorted Pontius. Gritting his teeth, Theo looked questioningly at the math: – Begin! – He commanded. Pontius resumed the story, which was finished in four in the morning. In parting, the mathematician said: – I left you a description of the device and your phone. I will be keep track of your actions, just try not to report to the Council about it, I guarantee you trouble.Theo said nothing, his face flashed a smile that immediately replaced the seal of bitterness… In his haste, he picked up a box with the device Pontius.
At the entrance it was waiting for the machine and Lyon. It was early morning, or rather, five hours. LeAnn huge petals hanging from the ceiling at the front door of the house. It was terrifying to watch streaming couples cloud melts into the corridor. Theo strongly pushed the front door and found himself in the bitter cold. Her cheeks burned, instantly cold fingers touched on the feet and toes, securely sheltered fur. Almost running Theo moved to the machine, and soon found himself inside. Warmth and comfort inside the car was removed from the soul Theo almost the entire gravity of the situation.
– Well, I’m not going with you! – Said by way of greeting Dream
– You know the way. By the tone of his colleagues and the intense gaze Theo realized that the last line in their relationship broke. Now that dream can have regrets about his proposal to take refuge in the station. But their actions do not return, and then Theo did not refuse, even though sleep was confident that Theo refuses, offer him asylum. Hope for Leah did not pay off. Astrophysics position in the Academic Council Theo satisfied, as can be seen, more than a feeling. With this in mind, Son leave the aircraft Theo… Plant-based platform or station was first seen small point of light among the brightest stars. But this little dot all increased our eyes, growing up in a chaotic pile heaps of metal. Individual parts of the station began to appear when Theo brought his camera at a distance of about one kilometer. The gloom prevailed
