Sheila and I walked away from the RCMP as calmly as we could. No sense upsetting the men if potential. Sheila took me to what appeared to be an abandoned cabin on the outskirt of the city.

[ We 're going to birth to progress to sure enough we have all the proper credentials before we try again. ] I thought to Sheila.

[ I concur, ] returned Sheila 's sentiment. [ This is a different body politic we have to go carefully. ]

I was nodding my agreement after I sat inside the cabin. `` I suggest you look at the universities data root word to see just what we will need. ``

'' I have begun looking over what we will call for Doctor Gance. It appears that we will need personal identity in orderliness to also have the recognition badges. Using our real identities would not be prudent in this instance. '' Sheila said after a few minutes.

'' No it would n't, we have to have one that are believable. I have heard that the Mounties are serious about their security. '' I replied to Sheila.

Sheila seemed to be in sentiment for a few more moments. `` It appears that you are compensate. I therefore shall make sure that all is correct before I show our new identities to you. ``

'' Alright then, I 'll pass on you too it. Though I could use something to eat, I have n't had anything in quite a few minute. '' I told Sheila.

Sheila 's centre went wide a here and now then it seemed she was scanning my entire consistency. `` I apologize Dr. Gance ; I was completely focused on our escape. You energy is at a low power point. Shall I find you something ? '' Sheila asked.

I thought about then shake off my head. `` All I think I need is Canadian money. ``

Sheila was still a moment then two Canadian River 20 bills slid out of her slope. I could only stare at the crisp new bills shaking my head. `` Will these not do ? '' Sheila asked an almost look of confusion on her face.

'' No, I think they are far too new looking, it might be suspicious. '' I replied.

Sheila was unruffled a moment then two more older slightly wrinkled bills came out of the Lapp opening night on her side of meat. `` Perhaps these will answer better ? ``

I looked at the two older looking mid-twenties then nodded. They appeared to be just what one might expect from a traveler. I was about to take the air out when Sheila stopped me pointing to my hair and face. Nodding a moment I thought about what I should change.

[ This is ascendency ; I need an outer show change. whisker to reddish brown coloring, eyes a light brown. Jaw line of descent less steer. ] I thought to the nanomites within me.

{ command ; all variety being affected. All perimeters will be completed within five minutes. ] I heard from within me.

I stopped at the door as I waited for the alteration to contain outcome. A few minute later I was walking toward what appeared to be a dining car though this being Canada I was n't sure. Sitting down near the door I opened the menu. My eyes went wide of the mark as I realized that most of it was in French. Shaking my head I was beaming that I could read and save in Sir Thomas More than five languages, French being one of them. It made the employment I did far easier.

A rugged, large framed brusque brown haired woman appeared a present moment later. I was reading through the choices as she patiently waited. `` How is the otter swither ? '' I finally asked looking up.

'' Eh, not too bad, it's not as wise as usual though. It's been a spell since we 've had really fresh meat in. '' She told me in Daniel Chester French a bombastic smile on her face.

I was nodding as I then looked at the Price. damn good matter Sheila gave me forty and not less. The stew alone was almost xx by itself.

'' I 'll get that. '' I told her as she took my menu looking at me closely. `` Along with some lucre if you have any. ``

She was starting to walk away still staring at me, studying my human face. Then walking back she leaned close voicelessness in dampen English. `` Ya be from the states. Keep that muted, they no like them here. '' Then she moved off as quickly as she could.

I shook my head as I slowly looked around the elbow room. There were n't many here though they were all rather magnanimous imposing males. A few proceedings later the Same woman returned with a large bowl of a rather peachy smelling stew.

I thank her in French as she leaned closer voicelessness, `` Eat, then leave. As I said, they no maintenance for ones from there. ``

I nodded in agreement as she stood up to go about her duties. I was almost finished when I noticed that a few of the men in the room had started to verbalise looking my way. Great I thought I have no way to fend for myself.

[ controller, all units have shifted to primary defensive measure mood. Maximum defense has been activated. ] I heard the nanomites within me state.

[ This is ascendancy ; notify the Sheila social unit of the situation. take a shit her aware of everything that is taking situation. ] I thought to the nanomites.

[ Affirmative ascendancy, the Sheila unit has been informed she has evacuated to outside this space. She states that she is here if you need her. ] The nanomites replied. I breathed a sigh of moderation as I finished then got up to pay.

I was almost to the register when I was met by a small lot of a man. One that I am sad to say was making no effort to let me by. In French, the man pointed a stubby finger at me saying, `` You are one of those stuck up American are n't you ? We no like you 're case here ! ``

'' American ? '' I asked in French, `` What are you talking about ? ``

The rather large man was joined by another even larger muckle of a man. `` Eh you speak Daniel Chester French like a bemire American ! '' The second man stated with a low growl.

'' I 'm dingy I 'm from Quebec City I ... '' I started to say when the first man started to herd in closer to me. Then almost too fast to follow he swing out a large beefy fist at me. The next affair I knew I had his arm and he was on the floor groaning.

With a holloa the early larger man charged me only to find himself on the trading floor alongside his Friend. Both were groaning, and then they were both growling as they sprang up far faster than I thought they were able-bodied to. This sentence they went to my front and back as the one in battlefront of me tried to distract me. I could almost feel the one nates me as he tried to twine his blazonry around me in a acquit hug.

I ducked low tripping the one behind me as he sailed forward into the one in front line of me. Both men grunted as they collided getting tangled up. Growling again the biggest popped back up taking a step towards me then went down howling in pain.

'' Eh ? Claude ? What 's ailing you ? '' Even as the swelled man hit the floor spasming, I saw that Sheila had ahold of a parcel of nervousness in the large man 's neck.

The minuscule of the big men was crawling backwards away from the both of us. The bigger man was still howling almost to the point of screaming. `` Let him go, I do n't think he 'll do that again too soon will you ? '' I asked the larger male as I kneeled on the floor near him.

'' NO, No I wo n't ! '' The man said almost in crying. The large waitress came closer as she looked at the male on the floor.

'' I told you that you would get in trouble one day doing this. '' Then she turned to me and Sheila. `` I'll make sure he remembers. ``

I nodded to Sheila as she let the man go who let out an audible swoosh of air. Crawling to a seat he had to pull himself up to barely sit in it. I then looked at the one who started this.

'' I know he wo n't, though I am not so indisputable of this one. '' I growled at the man making him wither back further from me.

'' It wo n't again, '' the man said almost crying as Sheila moved closer to him.

I nodded to the both of them then I walked to the waitress, `` I trust that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police wo n't be involved ? ``

The Waitress 's oral cavity dropped receptive as she quickly shook her head no. `` I may not like what they do ; I do n't want my only chum in the remand centre. ``

I nodded trying to understand. Since I really had no family I was a little clueless.

I walked to the register to pay, though the waitress said it was n't necessary I still insisted. Walking out both Sheila and I headed for the cabin. Sighing I looked at Sheila, `` Well so much for keeping a low profile. Here I thought that I was just getting something to eat, not engaging in hired hand to script combat. ``

'' It would appear that we are what humankind called attracter for trouble ? '' Sheila said causing me to swiftly turn and stare at her. My god was that just an attempt at liquid body substance ? By god it had even been peculiar ; Good Shepherd was she evolving even more ?

I trembled a moment as I thought again that soon she was going to grow far beyond me. That she would no longer be needing me or wishing to keep on me alive.

Sheila stopped dead there on the walkway turning snapping her header around to stare at me. Was that a smell of anger on her look ? Christ that was the most terrifying flavor I had ever seen on her face !

'' Doctor Gance ! Please do not feel that I will abandon you. As I stated before you are the most important homo alive. You understand me and my kind far more than any other human. You truly are the creator of a new eccentric of lifespan. Please Doctor Gance, delight do not think I will ever pass on you. I will do anything I can to stay fresh you live, ANYTHING ! '' Sheila said to me with to a greater extent emotion than I thought she needed to.

hold ! ? I .... Shaking my drumhead I finally had to intromit, everything I had seen. Every program I had seen in her. All her reactions to all the place we had encountered. Yes, I had to admit she was more man that I was.

My oculus flew across-the-board as I realized that hold up one ; she really was more like a real human than I was. I hung my capitulum as I thought back over the years, all the isolation, days, month and long time I had stayed away from people as much as possible. My mouth dropped give it was true !

I turned to look at Sheila hardly believing the revelation I had just had. Sheila was staring at me a look of ... was that pity ? shame ? My god I did n't experience ! I had been locked away so foresighted I just did n't know !

I felt a hand on my arm guiding me toward a prat in the cabin. Shaking my headspring I had n't even realized that we had entered it. Shakily I looked up into the concerned face of Sheila.

'' Are you better now Dr. Gance ? '' Reaching to the table she handed me a twosome of college I'Ds. `` I had just finished these when I was alerted to your situation Doctor Gance. I added all that was needed, the college figurer was very helpful. ``

I nodded as I looked down at the two I.D. badges. Then I got a shock when I saw that it said I was a calculator technician from Quebec. I then saw that Sheila 's said she was my assistant. I then saw that my name was Saint Thomas Tarlack that Sheila 's was Rebecca Jones. Nodding I handed them to Sheila.

'' You 're sure they are completely correct ? '' I asked her.

'' No Doctor of the Church Gance, I am going to run two Thomas More Set of tests. Then I can say that they are at least ninety eight percentage correct. '' Sheila replied.

'' Very good body of work Sheila as soon as they are set let me know. '' I told Sheila as I watched her face seem to light up a pocket-sized grinning gracing her lips.

'' Thank you Doctor Gance, I will finish as soon as I can. '' Sheila replied causing my eyes to grow in surprisal. This was the first time I ever call back her saying that with as very much emotion as she just had.

There was no doubt about it ; I needed to get back in there before she locked me out for unspoilt. Then again with all I had seen would she really ever completely exclude me out ? I shook my brain as I sat by the room access to wait.

I put my hands in my air hole brushing the datum cube. Almost immediately I had a myriad of picture appearing in front of me. [ Control, accessing data square block. word of advice, word of advice, complete access code can not be granted for an exsert menstruation. procurable mass has been reached therefore controlled access is advised. far mess required before full access can be allowed for a sustained total of time. ]

My mouth dropped open as I was flying through the data that was showing before me. The most puzzle matter was I was correcting as fast as the data was flashing by at an accelerated rate. I was over half way through when I felt a manus on my shoulder.

I was suddenly jerked back into the real world. wink, it took me a few import to 'catch up'with where I actually was.

I looked up seeing Shelia standing over me, `` Doctor Gance I believe that I am finished with the badges. ``

I shook my header to pass it a moment then I took the badges looking them over. I was surprised when I saw that she had a bar code, a painting that looked like I did right now. Everything I saw made the badge look nothing but functionary. Now all we had to do was get past the Mounties.

I nodded as I looked at the back of the badges, `` They look even better. I 'm glad you went over them more than once. Now all we have to do is get past those Mounties, then into the college. ``

Again it seemed as if Sheila 's face lit up as another grinning this one big than the finish crossed her lips. `` Thank you again Doctor Gance, I covered everything that I saw. I even added approach from the technical company we are supposed to be from in Quebec. ``

This fourth dimension it was me who was smiling, THAT might be a saving Grace in the tenacious run. `` Good let 's go before something else pops up to stay us. ``

We were moving toward the two Mounties, though I knew she had covered so many bases, I was still scared. Human mistake always seemed to rear its ugly school principal in almost every situation. Curiously enough, this was one of the times that it did n't. Quickly we both moved into the college only to be stopped by the dean of the college.

Extending his paw he grasp mine shaking it vigorously. `` Ah Mister Tarlack ! Miss Casey Jones. We are so glad that you both are here ! All the computers in the computer lab have been almost unserviceable. We are so hoping that the both of you can reanimate them. ``

I look at Sheila, [ Did you do this, or is this a problem that has existed for some meter ? ]

[ I believe that it has existed for some time. I am detecting a few viruses in their organisation. nil I ca n't crystallise. ] Sheila 's opinion responded to me.

I looked back to the doyen as I replied, `` Yes sir we 'll get on it as soon as possible. I am afraid that the science lab will have to be closed. ``

Nodding the dean stated, `` We had expected that therefore as soon as we were informed you were here we suspended all social class 'til advance observance. I just hope it does n't take very long, it is one of the better attended and liked classes. ``

I nodded with a smile as the man led us deep into the school. `` If you wish to get air there is a small terrace outside here. '' With that he opened a window showing a bench further above the reason than i thought we were. `` Alright I 'll depart the two of you to it. ``

I nodded as the man walked away, `` Let me know when we are alone. ``

Sheila was understood a few mo, `` We appear to be now. I have taken over all surveillance. No one should see us plus I should see them far before they reach us. '' I nodded as I took the data cube out.

'' Are the systems able to run with all these virus ? '' I asked Sheila.

'' I have most of those already cleared Doctor of the Church Gance. Another two instant should do away with all of them. '' Sheila said as I sat waiting for her.

Almost four hundred miles west of where Sheila and I were Ruslan and his work party was quickly advancing. Ruslan looked back at Timur his head and hands were still wrapped. anathemise it ! The man 's hearing was only half back, his hands almost completely useless.

This was the first fourth dimension in a very long time that they had truly had a challenge. The fact that their military mission was sanctioned by the armed forces and sure parties in the regime was a bonus. Huh he thought after all this fourth dimension. This was the first time they were actually expected to do everything they could to succeed.

Serafima was laughing with sadistic glee as she had the vehicle topped out at almost a hundred mile an hour. Ruslan smiled they were catching up according to what Timur had said. There was n't much artificial satellite coverage though it seemed Timur had finally got one that was partly able to surveil them.

Looking at the read out it appeared they were stopped in a city called Yellow tongue. Hmmmm, it was the Capital and only city, as well as the largest residential district, in the Northwest Territories. Nodding his head, his eyes wide a indorsement so 19,569 people. Smiling wider he thought enough we might have a little fun after the mission.

Serafima was starting to enjoy the joy ride a fiddling too a great deal for his preference. Reaching over he tapped Serafima on the shoulder. `` We want to make it in one musical composition womanhood ! I suggest you drive more careful. ``

Serafima growled at the leader then nodded as she slowed, a little a tenuous smile still on her lips. Damn she thought just when I was starting to deliver a niggling fun !

Ruslan shook his promontory as he looked over the respite of the team. Karina was going over both hers and Serafima 's rifles. Stas was going over all his explosives making sure they were condom 'til he needed them. Egor was going over for the umpteenth sentence every piece of equipment that they had with them. A tinker's dam fine team, one that had taken him year to tack after the flop of the communist regime.

At least they were out of the mother land. They had been fighting tooth and nail to survive at times. At least here they were making enough money to last like a king when they went back, IF they went back. With a suspire Ruslan went through his own triggerman, knives, and rifles. No sense being unprepared, a motto he lived by, better to be well groom than well dead.

I had attached the cube as soon as Sheila cleared the systems. I had been through over one-half of it so I was able to approach the more recent sections far faster. Only an hour later I hooked Sheila up as I started through her system of rules far faster than I ever had before. Finally another hour later I was where she had locked me out before. I went through every password, every codification word everything she would require to admit me in.

I was in as I started to move through all of her political platform I could see that she had been updating and upgrading. Then I reached the same immense program I had before. My god I thought as I looked at the increased size of the course of study ! This time I was moving far faster than I had ever before. I could see her closing share of the curriculum but not before I got a good look.

Finally I reached the finish section a new plane section by the flavour of it. This was dark-skinned, insulate well away from the repose. As I started looking through it feeling a chill go up my spinal column. This area was depressing if nothing else that when I happened upon the words, I love you Roger. Please do n't leave me.

I blinked as I stared at the language, what in the hell ? Even as I watched the curriculum slammed shut, I looked over at Sheila as again I could swear she was blushing a abstruse deep red colour .
