Chapter Three pages 50-52
“Look.” Marlin said as changed the screen to the global council building. “Right now Dr. Marx is in his room logging onto his computer. Hang on a sec his password is ILOVELUCY. It’s not me something’s wrong it’s possible that if a large magnetic field is in that area it would restrict delta wave movement.” He continued.
The crackling of a mike set echoed through the large testing room. Geo was standing there and immediately begun calling in orders. Sending a titan and two aurora crafts to each site.
He then ordered Marlin to call up each area on the screen so he could relay in GPS coordinates and order the crafts to investigate.
“Titan Asia in position at the China coordinates. We’re currently hovering the area sir, there’s nothing below us but forest.” The radio crackled.
“Fire your rail guns at the precise coordinates you were given.” Geo instructed.
The large ship let out a barrage of fire at the coordinates. In seconds the hologram disappeared and exposed the great pyramid of China. The capstone was blown off and large sections of stone were missing on the south and east sides.
“Sir, I don’t know what just happened, ah I haven’t ever seen anything like it.” The ships captain responded.
“Spit it out captain.” Geo ordered.
“Well sir the forest just disappeared. Now there’s a large pyramid sitting in front of us. There must have been some kind of hologram cloak of something.” The captain replied.
“What kind of shape is it in? Geo asked.
“The capstone has been completely blown off and there’s three large craters in the sides of it.” The captain responded.
“Blow it apart.” Geo ordered.
“Yes sir.” The captain responded. “Arm the pulse cannon and fire on the target sergeant.” He continued. The craft drifted away to the right a bit and fired the cannon. As fast as the pulse hit the pyramid a large dust cloud rose from the ground reaching high into the air. When the dust settled nothing was left but a pile of powder.
“Target destroyed.” The captain responded over the radio.
“Good, send teams in to inspect the damage.” Geo ordered. “Marlin, arm the space cannons and destroy the remaining targets.” He continued as Marlin followed through with his order.
The elevator door opened and Oz stepped into the testing area.
“What’s all the excitement about?” Oz asked.
“We located the anomalies we reported earlier. “They turned out to be rebel hideouts using some hologram to cover their base.” Geo answered. "We've sent teams in to report the damage, thay should be in position in a few minutes."
“Great then we can move onto bigger and better things.” Oz responded. “I want phase two finished by the morning Geo."
"Marlin, I want you to concentrate on finding this man.” He continued as he handed Marlin a folder. Marlin opened the folder and held the picture of Dr. Cole about eye level gazing at it for a few moments then placing it back to scan over the remainder of the file.
“Dr. Kern, you come with me.” He finished turning and walking towards the control room.
Oz was walking quickly to the control room. Kern was trotting to keep up with him. She caught up as he stopped at the control station.
“How far along is the phase two project?” Oz asked.
“Almost an hour ahead of schedule.” Kern answered
“Great, then you my dear will start on phase four, double check the codes and make sure it’s timed properly.” Oz ordered as he finished browsing through a few screens and departed down the hallway. Oz entered a large office and sat down at the desk. After pressing a couple of keys on a small device Jennings appeared on a holographic conference screen.
“We found and eliminated the anomalies sir. Apparently they were rebel hideouts.” Oz began. We’ve sent salvage teams to dig through the rubble and collect anything of value.
“What about Cole?” Jennings barked.
“Marlin has his file and is already began the search.” Oz replied. “Phase two will be complete by five am if we stay at our current page.”
“Phase four, has Kern begun?” Jennings asked.
“Dr. Kern has begun phase four preparations. They will be ready in about an hour.” Oz replied.
“Great I want to push phase four to start an hour before the press conference.” Jennings stated as he disconnected communication and Oz exited the room to tell Dr. Kern the news.
8:04 Ophysis pyramid
“This is the most relaxing bath I’ve ever had.” Sylvia said as she slowly pushed through the water. “Can you believe all of this, I mean it’s hard for me to grasp.” She continued.
“Which part, the fact that my father is alive and lives in a secret scientific community, or the part where we got a brain download. Or better yet the fact that we have metal critters running around in our bodies?”
“I was talking about the decorations silly. These ancient people knew how to live.” Sylvia replied with a smile.
“That would be a woman’s response.” Frank replied as Amanda peered through the doorway.
“Get dressed and get up to the room now.” Amanda remarked with a sense of urgency.
“What’s going on?” I asked.
“I don’t know exactly but hurry.” She replied as her head disappeared around the corner. Sylvia and I quickly exited the bath and tossed on our clothing. We left the bath at a trot, as we exited the main entrance and headed for the stairs I noticed all of the craft had arrived.
When we entered the room Dr. Samuels was finishing what sounded like a pep talk to a large group. As soon as he finished almost everyone left the room. Moving like bees to the command of their queen, they left the room quickly and dispersed throughout the pyramid.
“ Five of our sites were just destroyed by the global council Frank.” My father said after the crowd dispersed. “We lost a total of eight hundred and forty six people so far and have four craft still out with nowhere to go.” He continued.
“How’s that you have shields to stop them from detecting you right?” I asked.
“We thought they were undetectable.” Molly announced. “Look at this.” She continued as she motioned us over to view the screen. “I just got into the third disk and look at what I found.” She continued as she pointed to a schematic of a machine. “This is what Jennings calls the reader. It’s a program that allows someone with enough psychic ability to tap into M.A.B.I.S.” She finished.
“Meaning?” Sylvia asked.
“Simply put, it works like the NIL program except the download contains the entire MABIS program. The psychic’s mind is then able to control and react to anything within the reader program, which I don’t need to remind you is everything.” Molly finished.
