to talk about it. Awkward position saved Carlos. His cold indifference to Theo to his loss Range States, he flatly continued:
– Cutting off the path to the underground laboratories of Betelgeuse with the center of the Earth, so we bled their aspirations to relocate to Earth. A negative result is obtained from the planet, their interference with the Academic Council will stop and begin to focus its efforts on the creation of an artificial city. Like our Center, artificially created by the forces of advanced civilizations of the universe and rotating in the orbit of the Milky Way.
– I, personally, understand the desire of Betelgeuse populate the Earth. – Said Kecho still silently watching Garinov squabble with Carlos. – When there is such a unique opportunity to build an artificial city- ship and enjoy all the benefits of the Coalition.
– You Kecho are wrong. When the sun shines during the day, and at night the stars dotted the sky and in addition to that you should not think about the repairs and replacement of defective units, it means something!
Delivered Garinov, who would not hear about life in outer city. At that Carlos quipped:
– You, General, for the relocation of Betelgeuse to Earth?
Garinov looked at Aglientu, calm penetrating gaze of a military man, who saw in his lifetime many such skirmishes. Smiled indulgently and said nothing. Thoughts, holding, as they say, in a fist, knowing that with ease all present in this room, read them freely. Oppressive silence reigned. The explosion of emotions repaid Theo:
– Gentlemen, we did not need no deal. I propose today interrupted. Gather everyone with thoughts and tomorrow we will be able to calmly and thoroughly discuss the coalition’s proposal, which we will announce Mr. Carlos Aglientu. – Theo paused significantly. Then powerfully and slowly turned his head to the speakers Carlos, still sitting at your desk and black eyes examined poignantly present.
– Yes, I agree. – He said. – Let’s get together tomorrow. Enough for today. Until tomorrow, gentlemen!
Everybody stood up and one by one left the office…
When Garinov went back to his cabin, an apartment assigned to it in the center of the Coalition, in a bad mood, Dina was cooking in the kitchen.
– Is that you, Alex? – Welcoming cry she met her husband.
– Of course. Who else should it be? – A muffled voice answered her Garinov. Dean said her husband’s bad temper.
– Do you have some trouble?
Garinov approached her, put his arm around the shoulders:
– No, nothing special. Just Cortes did not explain anything plainly, and answer questions, as you can see, it’s not accepted.
– You’re asking a lot of questions, rather than to listen to the end? – Reproachfully asked Dean.
– Yes, dear Dean. I’d better go and lie down, something I feel well.
– Sorry! I’ve been waiting for, and then cooked dinner. However, my dear, if you are not healthy then of course it is better to lie down. I, too, would soon be.
Garinov went to the bathroom. Then, without dining, went into the bedroom. Wrapped in a pink duvet, conveniently located in the bed and fell asleep…
Like a sunrise, gradually closing in on the shade, it became brighter, clearer silhouetted outlines some space. Giving way to a bluish glow, green melted and disappeared completely. Garinov saw around creatures with large heads, arms and legs little ones. They are all as one, spun around and bulging eyes, pulling his hands were moving in the blue space, as in zero gravity. He did not know who they are, but I felt them, and seemed to understand. Among them was a senior. His Garinov learned from the way it began to “swim” the rest. They occupied the space in front of him and froze, turning his head in his direction.
Garinov also “swam” up close. He looked around. I wanted to ask what all this means, but the voice was not. There was one a sense of ease and luxury. No one wanted to move. Everyone froze and did not move. How long did this state? Garinov did not remember. He only saw a very, very slowly grow arms and legs, formed body, flat face. Everyone already visible features, big eyes. Eyebrows over his eyes, no, no nose, the nose instead of two round holes and a mouth without lips, a thin silk. The face was the correct oval. Hardly were the ears and the hair is straight, women have longer. Everyone’s skin was a bright green hue. When Garinov “stronger”, as it should, he began to realize that all of them here, about twenty people. No, twenty him even twenty one. And there’s one senior, that’s how Crilly. Senior suddenly looked as if Garinov and confirmed the expressive look of understanding. That is the real Crilly! – All of a sudden thought struck him. And after it was confirmed. As he began to understand the older, without a word, for Garinov remained a mystery. He considered the other alternately, and though outwardly men were like twins, women also differed little from each other, but the feeling of each individual brings its own particular emotions. He realized that the crew in front of him. He quickly found his comrade. His companion, however, like all the other men, had green skin, narrow shoulders, slender arms and legs. From the thinness seemed to glow through the body. But cutting and quick movements, and his eyes seemed to say something. Garinov looked at him, looked into his round pupils.
“Are you my friend?” – Garinov asked in surprise.
“And you Garinov?, I recognized you at once!”
“What do we do with these soulless robots?”
“And what about you, do not you see?” – Answered a question with a question
Garinov.
“Let’s see, but I cannot understand!”
“Nonsense, just give us another corporeal shell.”
“The question is, why?”
Garinov did not answer, but just threw up his hands, he would have to “tell” their “new” feelings, but something stopped him. He looked around. The blue glow began to grow dim, and it clearly stood out white bedroom walls. When the space around cleared and vision disappeared, he saw a chair in front of the commander. Crilly was sitting with his eyes open and staring at the ceiling.
Garinov up on one elbow, looked around. No one. Near snoring in his sleep Dean. Garinov wanted to scream with delight, as well, that all he is only just a dream. He lay back down in bed and closed his eyes.
– Do not sleep, Garinov! – He heard Crilly, almost next to each other. From this unexpected shuddered all over, opened his eyes again. In the chair where just nobody was sitting Crilly.
– I showed you, General, what happened to my crew of intergalactic spaceship sent once centuries ago in search of a highly advanced civilization capable of saving our planetary system from certain doom. Our four habitable planets were doomed because of the fading sun. You Earthlings call our Faded sun Betelgeuse. But the genius scientist Theo found a way to open the unbalanced energy systems and energy was produced to feed the planet, enveloping their strongest protective field. But the problem of power module is the fact that this energy is made Fayeton population of the planet, the once beautiful with a stable climate of the inhabited earth. This has led to an explosion due to Fayeton civil wars than in the primary role played by the unbalanced energy
