EVE : Sounding the Horns of the Hunt 10
Author: From:www.buyfastgold.com
Something gnawed at me, something about the whole trip I couldn't quite make sense of.
On a sleepless night, some days later, I made a nocturnal trek to our offices and
called up the videos from our flight. The sick bay ones hadn't been filed - we Sisters
are good at humans, usually, but bad at bureaucracy - and all I could get my hands on
were general monitoring records for the ship's entrances, bridge and exits.
I went over some of my own actions while I'd been in route control, and kept looking
for some kind of flight bump or course deviation that I knew I hadn't made. It wasn't
so much to assuage my conscience, but rather to completely eliminate the chance that
what I was looking for was anything as normal as a simple mistake.
It wasn't until I had switched to the other videos and watched Jonak's miraculous entry
a dozen times that I noticed what I'd been missing, or rather, what he'd been missing
when he finally turned up on the bridge.
Setting the viewers to magnify and sharpen, I focused, and focused, and focused, aiming
the unseen eye directly at Jonak's pocket. There was a clear bulge in there, one that
definitely had not been present when he entered the caravan, nor when he came back to
me on the bridge.
Focus, focus, focus.
A curved bulge, its axis slightly more voluminous, like it had a ball set in its
middle.
Like the Angel had brought on board.
I didn't want to know any more. I didn't want to be on the roads that would lead to a
place I'd never quite escape from. So I shut down the viewer, and I left our office,
and I went home, and some time later, I finally slept.
