Both men looked at Mita expecting an explanation for her statement. An even bigger face of concern came over her characteristic. Sighing she shook her head, she 'd stayed quiet for too long. This was her kid damn it ! Not some random experiment.

Mita looked at Gunter, `` Do you think of what my epithet was before we married married man ? I thought at offset you were n't going to marry me ; especially when you heard my end name. ''

Gunther could only gaze at Mita then said, `` Yes I remember it was Aoki. '' Then Gunther shrugged as if the public figure meant nothing to him.

A little assuage Mita turned to look at Derrick her concern returning at the look of shocked revelation on his face. `` Dr. Hideo Aoki ! I remember a little now. Father took me to see him. I seem to call up being very sick but not much else. ''

Mita nodded then bowed slightly, `` You are the beginning I have ever heard of remembering anything of that time. You were as I remember one of the first few vitrine that actually survived ; the very starting time, of the first-class honours degree generation. '' Here Mita hung her head, `` It is fortunate that you remember none of the infliction. You screamed so, it was knockout to select. I was so young at the time I did n't see wha ... what founding father was doing. ''

'' Your male parent ! '' Gunther shouted, finally remembering his founder in law. Shaking his head word he was beginning to palpate poor fish not recognizing the man. `` Here I thought he was this nice older man ! '' Shaking his head again he tried to call up exactly what the man had been called. Suddenly his eyes went wide, `` MD Death ! ''

Mita hung her principal nodding affirmative to her husband. But the look of disgust in his centre shocked her the most. `` I did n't know for the longest time. I remember hearing well muffled screaming though at the prison term I did n't connect them with father. '' Here she turned to Derrick, `` then I met you one day. After we talked for a bit I felt I had made a friend. The first true friend I ever had, and then you were gone. ''

Derrick 's eyes went wide-eyed as a computer storage flashed before his eyes. `` Mi, Mi ? '' Derrick whispered as his torso started to stir. `` I remember you were vernal than me. I made you a hope we 'd see each early again. '' Turning his nous away Derrick continued. `` I 'm dingy I was never able-bodied to keep that promise. Your friendly relationship and the promise are what helped me through it all. ''

'' It appears that the Doctor of the Church was possibly responsible for the sudden demise of thousand ; both children and Adults. '' Mary interjected. `` At the present clock time there are only about twenty cases that survived his administrations. You sire are in the expert condition. Almost all of the first cases died, at present you are the entirely one of the first year, first genesis that survived. That's astonishing, to say the least sire. ''

'' Sire ? '' Both Mita and Gunther said.

'' What in the nether region is she on about ? '' Gunther asked.

Mita had both her hands covering her mouth as she could only stare at Derrick. Then her eyes went wide as she slowly sank to her knees. `` I 'm regretful, '' she whispered bowing her head. `` I accept what punishment you declare your majesty. ''

Derrick groaned as he went to his knees in presence of her touching her nerve. Gently pulling her Kuki up, he stared into her optic. `` Why are you regretful ? It was n't you it was your Father of the Church plain and simple. Besides I think it was you that gave me the strength to inhabit. '' Mita 's eyes went wide as she tried to recoil from Derrick.

'' I could have stopped Fatherhood I know it. Had I known and not been so stupid and childish. '' Mita said tears slowly falling from her eye.

Derrick shook his head, `` Do n't be so indisputable. As I remember your Padre was deep into all of it at the clip. A few class later yes, though not I think, at the first. ''

Mita was slowly nodding her head then she looked at the kisser of Mary. `` May I hug my friend ? I recognize you so I do n't need to do anything to alarm you. ''

'' I will permit it as I have scanned you when I came here. '' Then she turned to Derrick, `` that is Sire, if you allow it. ''

Derrick 's look wore a aspect of irritation then he sighed. `` I will always leave it, like her hubby and the others I trust her. ''

Mita 's eyes went blanket as a look of impact banquet across her face. `` You trust me ? '' Further shock seemed to take over her whole dead body as she sat there only able-bodied to stare at Mary and Derrick.

A wide of the mark grin was on Derrick 's aspect as he reached out grabbing Mita in a bear hug. `` As I said it was your Father not you. Though I see that you, yourself went into the medical examination field. You met the lieutenant when we were in the democracy warfare ? ''

Mita nodded, `` He was brought in with a weapon injury to his leg. '' Here she turned to Gunther. `` You never said how you got that either. You think you could ordering him to tell me father ? ''

Again, Derrick groaned though not as bad as before. Turning toward Gunther he smiled wide again as he said, `` It was Rayburn and Kimison was n't it ? ``

A huge facial expression of shock appeared on his side as he could only nod. `` It was right after our first class of the Republic hunting expedition. I think you were gone at the time. They started arguing about Jehovah knows what, as they always seemed to when you were n't there. Sergeants Norman and Jimison jumped in to try and classify them. They had both pulled weapons when I jumped in. I managed to worm the weapons from them or thought I had when one discharged. ''

A smirk crossed Mita 's face, `` We all thought that the wound was self inflicted. Considering the close range to his ... '' here Mita got embarrassed. `` Uh ... individual parts. '' Here she looked at Gunther with a honest look of love. `` well-nigh would be screaming in pain. Not Gunther, he lay there as I applied all the ointment and sunburn creams. I think, I think that was the day I fell for him. ''

'' Yeah, I remember that, were you trying to be a hero or something ? '' Came Greg Norman 's voice from behind them.

'' As I remember you still kicked both their asses even with that lesion. I thought you were going to sprout them, hellhole I would have. You gained a hell of a lot of regard from the both of us that day. '' Jimison said as Both Mita and Gunther turned to see both men leaning against the wall.

Gunther 's mouth dropped open as he stared at both of his acquaintance. Both who were supposed to be dead, dead for a few years now. `` You ... you are both absolutely. I saw the video of you being blown into place. I saw you gunned down by commonwealth troops. ''

Both men smiled then they nodded to Derrick. `` fountainhead actually, '' Derrick started. `` They are dead to their sentence. I ... ''

'' Sire ? I think she is waking up. '' Mary drew up close to Shelly as her eyes flicked undefended. `` Hello minuscule one. Feeling easily ? '' Shelly nodded as she reached up to Mary to pull herself up.

Shelly 's middle went wide as her hand passed through Mary. Motioning Virgin Mary down, she whispered low to The Virgin. Blessed Virgin 's eyes went large as she went to Mita.

'' Is she alright ? I 've been afraid that the delay codes I used were being ignored by the nanomites. Damn if father did n't stimulate these more complex than the kickoff set. '' Mita said.

Interesting Virgin Mary thought as she ran another scan of Shelly then was nodding. `` What were the codes ? I wish to see if I can slow them further. The cushion I administered will only end a calendar week. Then I am afraid she will be where she was again. Though I think a week without the seizures will be good. ''

'' Yes ! Anything to facilitate, Mary. Please just save her I thought Fatherhood was helping her then this started. If he were still alive he could easily break this. I wish I had been able to economize to a greater extent of his notes that I had. '' Mita told Mary. With that Mita told Mary all the codification that she had including all of those that were uncomplete. `` What did she say ? Mita indicated Shelly. ''

The Virgin got a strange aspect on her cheek as she said. `` She said she wanted to sit up. When her hands passed through me she giggled a bit. It was then she told me she was meritless then she called me the see through Lady. Strange though I have never been called that, it is admittedly. I am after all a hologram. '' Mita smiled as she recalled the other hologram's reaction.

Mary went through all the codes then compared all of them to those that Tempro had gotten from Derrick. Interesting she thought they were almost selfsame. From what she saw what Mita had done was probably the only matter that had saved the minuscule girl. Looking advance she began to recover certain consequence that had caused the premature activating of the nanomites.

Mary turned toward Derrick as she was running the codes. `` Sire ? I am receiving a transmittal from the Empress. Apparently she is upset that you have n't contacted her as of yet. ''

Derrick swallowed hard remembering the last time Shelby had back handed him to the deck. `` Open a communication channel Tempro. '' Derrick directed.

A moment later a holograph of Shelby appeared. `` Why in the hellhole are you at the imperial major planet ? I 've that piss ant Risen in a cell. I want IT gone ! When ... ''

'' I 'll be there as soon as I can. Shelby was damaged helping to boost Tempro 's bivalent IMT. It was being interfered with by the ripalon zip at the old ship yards. I blame myself. '' Here Derrick hung his foreland. `` I ... ''

'' Damn it Derrick ! Do n't set about this self destruction again ! I had a hard sufficiency time getting you out of it stopping point time. Unless of course of study you like being face down on the pack of cards ? I 'm sure I could order for you to experience it again ! '' Shelby said a little loathsome grin crossing her lips.

Derrick held up his manus in defeat, shaking his mind she was definitely a forcefulness to be reckoned with. Shit as of yet he 'd only seen her slightly upset. Full out raging ? Here Derrick shuddered, no thank you !

'' How damaged was Shelby ? I take it she blew out her complete IMT system ? '' Shelby asked then gasp when she saw Derrick nod then depleted his head. `` My god ! You almost lost her did n't you ? MARY ! Check his full skittish system ! Is he operating at full mental ability ? '' Shelby asked.

Virgin Mary 's stunned feeling was quickly replaced by vexation as she rapidly started scanning Derrick for the adjacent five minutes. `` I am finding several healed burning and slash since the utmost time I saw the Saturnia pavonia. I am also detecting plasma Burns from the regen matrix of an EIG. Sire you went into an EIG when there was an dynamic Matrix ? Again I have to ask you, forefather do you wish to die ? That is one of the most dangerous things you have ever done ! ''

'' So he 's healing well, '' turning toward Derrick Shelby told him sternly, `` I expect a full story ! '' Then her hologram flickered as several alarms went off. `` WHAT ! ! ? Get here soon Derrick. It appears that Risen has escaped ! Celeste start scans, find him ! '' Then the holograph vanished.

Gunther laughed a moment, `` 'Bout like being a Fatherhood is n't it ? Least it sounds like it to me. ''

Derrick could only agitate his head as he went to a console. Typing as fast as he could he smiled when he started to get results. The travel into the yesteryear had been eye opening that was for for sure, most certainly informative if nothing else.

It was various time of day later that Mary began to formulate several new code. These she was sure would allow Shelly to develop further without the seizures.

coming into court before Derrick, Mary stated, `` I believe I have working codification for little Miss Shiloh. It was far easier than with those that you have. ''

'' Alright inform Mita and Gunther. order them I 'll be there as soon as possible. '' Derrick told her as he turned back to his console typewriting at a blurry speed.

Virgin Mary 's optic were suddenly blanket as she read what Derrick was typing. `` Are you sure forefather ? Though it is you I can not implement this without her or her parent's consent. ''

'' I know, that 's why I am adding all that I can for you to work with. These codes I believe in junction with what you have will do it easier. Though I agree it is ultimately their determination I wo n't do anything to pain her. ''

Mary had rent in her eyes as she looked at Derrick. The man truly was a neat leader it made her feel fantastic to be serving a man like him.

Almost an time of day later Derrick appeared in the med bay. Shuddering he just hoped he never had to derive here again as a patient ! `` Thank you sorry I was delayed. Mary has managed to break the rest of the codes that you did n't have Mita. I have poured over those trying to determine anything that I could. I believe I have found a answer, one that I could actually turn them completely off ''

'' No ! '' Mita suddenly shouted. `` You ca n't ! They are the exclusively thing that is keeping her alive. Much as it was for you. The disease that the both of you had is that deadly. It took many twelvemonth for the nanomites to completely destroy it in you, sire. It 's only been a year for her ; she is well yes, though if she loses them then I am afraid she would n't last more than a week. ''

Derrick with a concern stricken face turned to Mary for confirmation. `` It appears she is decent sire. The nanomites are keeping an extremely insanely, and aggressive stock of pyogenes influenza at bay in her body. I have scanned your body seeing that as of ten years ago it was completely eradicated from your arrangement. ''

Derrick nodded as he lowered his head. `` I could have killed her. Mary, delete all the alteration that I made. ''

Mita came to Derrick hugging him tightly. `` It is alright forefather, you only had the best intent. Unlike my father when he worked on you. ''

'' Still I should have taken all cistron into account before I started in on all of these codes. '' Here Derrick 's pass dropped. `` I could never smart that precious little girl. ''

Mita had binge in her eyes as she was nodding at Derrick. Gunther came up and wrapped his arms around Mita as she pulled him tighter to her. `` Thank you father, at least now she might birth a chance at a normal life story. ''

'' We 'll soon see if the codes that I have work as well as I think they will. '' Mary told all three of them.

'' Here 's to hoping. '' Gunther said as they all awaited what the resolution of what Madonna was doing.

'' I have more than promise that she can do it Lieutenant. I 've seen far more often than not, that she does know what she 's doing. '' Derrick told the others. ‘ I hope you do,'Derrick thought as he looked at the relaxed face of Shelly.


Shelby was scrambling from console to console as were Kimison and Rayburn. `` I 've got goose egg on the shorter wave length. '' Shelby reported.

'' Going through the mid range as of yet no unusual person. Still scanning to confirm. '' Kimison said as he was finally glued to a console.

'' Already on the eminent curl distance. Celeste can you boost the resolve on the upper most stripe ? '' Rayburn asked as he stared at something he was n't indisputable of. A stabilise beeping alerted them all to the fact that the sensing element had picked something up. `` I 've got something moving away at monetary standard speed toward the planet. Energy form the Lapplander as that of the Taiolan ships that we fought. Son of a bitch ! ''

Shelby looked at what Rayburn was seeing. Then her eyes got large as she turned to Celeste. `` afford a canal ! All ships open ardour on the be coordinates ! Sector two A, three. Five zero pointedness five-five by four goose egg, three five ! Sorry Derrick. '' Shelby said under her hint she would be damned if that ass escaped without a battle from her !

Suddenly the darkness was lit as up ten ships opened fire toward the like point. There was a titanic flash as all eleven beams struck the shields of the small-scale ship that was just entering the air.

'' What in the hell is going on ! '' The Duke was screaming at those on board. `` I demand to know ... '' the Duke started when the man he 'd yelled at chopped him lightly across the throat.

'' You are not the leader I am ! I suggest that you shut the infernal region up while we try to shoot down this. Our shields are damn beneficial though not against the business leader of ten of those ships ! '' The new loss leader growled at the Duke shoving the Duke against the wall. Crumpling the Duke looked at the man with dagger like expression.

'' Any finicky home you want to land ? '' The loss leader growled at the Duke.

Grabbing his throat the Duke tried to speak then sighed. Pointing to a small-scale building on the former side of the planet

'' Damn it ! '' They all heard Conner curse a moment later. `` Empress we hit them. job is it was n't a direct hit ! Son of a ... sorry Empress I HATE missing ! license to blast the shi ... crap out of where they land ? ''

'' Denied. There may be innocent there. I do n't want to risk killing anymore than I have to. The hoi polloi of this planet have been through enough as it is. '' Shelby told a crestfallen Conner. ‘ shit it Derrick,'she thought, ‘ I need you here !'


Derrick was waiting with baited hint for Mary to go through the last of her tests before she started. In the mean time he watched as Shiloh. Grant, Jimison, and Norman got reacquainted with each other. Shaking his headway it was hard to believe all this started a class ago with a dream. Smiling as he remembered a defenseless Shelby and his self within the dream. Damn he thought all he and she had been through it was a wonderment neither of them were n't idle yet.

'' forefather ? '' Came Madonna 's voice breaking him out of his thoughtfulness. `` I believe I am gear up to start. '' Turning toward Gunther and Mita she stated. `` I am going to try the idle control first. It is a more advanced strain of what you used Mrs. battle of Pittsburgh Landing. I will proceed the dictation active voice that keep her alive fighting the disease. ''

Mita was nodding to all that Mary was saying, `` give thanks you The Virgin. Thank you for giving her a chance to be a rule picayune young lady. ''

The Virgin nodded to Mita and Gunther then looked at Derrick who nodded.

As she started she was constantly monitoring Shelly as the computer code were transmitted. `` I have administered the first set. I am receiving compliance of reception of the codes. Now sending secondly set. Awaiting code response substantiation. I ... oh dear. '' Mary suddenly said.

Derrick flew to the console table as he looked at what Mary was seeing. `` Damn it ! I was afraid that ! Your Church Father had another set of codes for anything like this second set. Mita was there anything that you can remember about executive codes ? Without them I 'm afraid there 's no way to set exactly what we want. We also ca n't vouch that they will stay idle 'til she reaches adulthood. ''

Mita was looking at Derrick with a look of revulsion after all they had done. To follow this far to fall short at the very last irregular ! Panicked a moment, Mita had been racking her brain for a few minutes when she remembered something her Father of the Church had said.

[ My little Mita always remember this.
When things seem bad, when all else fails,
Never be sad, Like confidential information in sails,
it always tends, to yield joy,
as will your friend, the lone boy.
Derrick ]

Mita stared at Derrick her mouth hanging open. In a small whispering voice she repeated the rime to Derrick whose eyes grew wider by the second. `` Oh my god ! '' Derrick said as he fell to his knees. `` The deep in thought boy poem ! Your father used to repeat it every day ! Mary, try the code word Derrick ! '' Derrick said not believing that Hideo had used his name as a code.

'' I am receiving conformation of acceptance of the code word. All nanomites have gone into standby way for all operations other than attacking the disease and keeping her hefty. '' Mary said as she continued to monitor the now mostly torpid nanomites.

Derrick was nodding when Tempro appeared. `` Sire it 's the Empress, I 'm afraid she 's very distressed. ''

'' Shit ! Put her on ! '' Derrick said afraid that something worse had happened.

'' Derrick ! '' Shelby said as soon as she came on. `` I need you here as soon as you can. The Duke escaped it seems with the help of the Taiolan sect. I ca n't purchase order a full out flack of the planet. Even as Empress, I do n't have that much superpower. Only you do, I know you 've just gotten back but the empire needs its leader as badly as I need my husband. ''

Derrick looked at Shelby 's worried look then nodded. `` Now Tempro ! '' A mere three seconds later they were pulling into field around the Duke 's planet. `` Now transferring command to Tempro temporarily. '' Derrick said as he sat in the statement chairman. A moment later a substance came to his wrist joint comp. `` I know Shelby, I just want you to be whole again. How long ... '' Derrick started to ask when the message appeared. `` Ok I see at least another five twenty-four hours on everything. It will be good to see you again. ''

'' It 's right to see you back sir. '' Thomas said as the hologram of him appeared. Then his mouth dropped open as he was staring at his retentive preoccupied supporter. `` Sir ? You got all of them did n't you ? Thank god finally real people to talk to ! '' Norman Thomas almost shouted.

'' Still being a difficulty maker I see are n't you David ? '' Norman said as he smiled at him.

'' Hey ! You said you 'd never mention that ! Besides the commander ... '' St. Thomas started to say

'' What, knew that the both of you got thrown in the brig for a day. I believe it has something to do with a sure officer 's girl. Ok so I did n't know ! '' Derrick said with a smirk.

Derrick sat and listened as number one Shelby, and then Conner told Derrick what had happened. Derrick nodded then opened up a epithelial duct. Dempsy ? Greeson ? Was it the sect ? ''

Dempsy appeared with Greeson. `` Yes father, though no where the acquisition of any of those that we met on the last planet we fought them on. '' Dempsy scanned all the men that were with Derrick his middle falling on Norman. Turning to look at Greeson Dempsy shook his head. `` forefather If I may ask ? ''

'' Yes Colonel, go ahead. '' Derrick said with a nasty wicked smiling on his face.

Oh course this made Dempsy groan. Sighing Dempsy continued. `` Have you told him ? '' Dempsy said indicating Jessye Norman.

Derrick followed Dempsy 's eyes, nodding no. `` I 'd rather it stayed that way 'til such clip as I can set up a meet. ''

'' It is as you wish you majesty ! '' Dempsy said bowing all the way to the base making Derrick moan this time. `` Alright touché Colonel. '' Derrick said with a smile as he clicked off.

'' Is everything alright ? '' All four of the men before him asked.

'' No, though I think it will be soon. This is one struggle I 'm afraid that none of you can join. Then again ... '' Derrick started as he thought of potential uses for each man.

Risen and the rest of the sect men had finally gotten the secured door afford. Stepping inside the Duke smiled at the smaller edition of the controller center that had been in his castle. Switching on several bit of equipment he smiled more. This was what his grandfather had held off a fleet of invader with. Let that bastard fake come ! He 'd be cook this time .
