Temporis XXIX - The Epicenter

The game begins

- Leaving T-2. All non-military should stay in Capricorn V. I repeat. All non-military should stay in Capricorn V.

- Every upgrade in the system were made, sir. Transferences of dream experiences were made successfully.

- The whole archbishop's group are on board.

- Excellent, sir. Let's do this last job fast and efficiently as usual.

- Please, tell Bellamy that we'll arrive in ten hours. He should remove all his crew from the area, cause the specialists want to make an in-depth analysis around the collision. You can update it, with no restriction, with all information we have now.

The silence in Lailah's cell was interrupted by Simon who apparently was coming back from a communication trance with his superior.

- Lailah, from my superior's viewpoint, you are but a plan B and for the moment you're disposable. If you want, you can destroy this artifact and destroy us all. Feel free to make the best decision: Destruction or Cooperation. Said Simon passively.

After the initial shock of Simon's words and some additional minutes of reflection, Lailah snarled.

- Alright I'll cooperate. What do I need to do?

- For now, nothing. We're all expecting news from the place where the spaceship crashed. Any other step would be unnecessary until we know what we're dealing with.

Lailah would like to scream in anger, fuck Demn! And laugh like crazy afterwards. As Simon said, now it's time to wait. And worst of all, she thought, it's that false bomb alarm that didn't scare anyone. For a moment, a crazy idea invaded her thoughts. Is it possible that I'm not in some simulation and sharing all this information with this damn people without realizing it? She cursed the old man again. He should have prepared her for that. She always thought she was ahead of the military and now she was feeling ashamed for not knowing she had a physical body somewhere in the primordial circles. - How was that possible, you stupid?

- Sweetheart, your mission will be quick, so wait for me in Capricorn. You can schedule your comeback to the primordial circle gamma-delta. As soon as possible, I'll do the same. Don't worry about simulations because they've been synchronized with the other circles.

- Love, don't make wait all by me. You know how tedious it is to be alone even when I'm with my children. Don't let your superiors keep you here. Don't forget that this is your last mission.

Gustav told Rebecca not to worry, but there was always the unknown element of the sensors of the primordial circles. He was worried about the simulation that he was carrying by himself. In this simulation, he was part of this select group of distinguished psychiatrists in the beginning of twentieth century. It was a kind of script that could cause some excitement for lack of in-depth comprehension of the theme by the sensors.

- Lailah, as a form of appreciation for your decision to cooperate, we'll propose a reduction in your sentence and maybe, only maybe, you can do time at home, if you want to.

- What about the others?

- The others don't worry us, but everyone will have to pay the price for this theft of information and besides that, there's no negotiation with them.

Dipper enraged, screamed and gesticulated at the hospital reception.

- How could a man without legs have been discharged? Don't make me laugh. He left on a wheelchair.
