The cold and unrelenting iniquity of space can be a hard kept woman when searching for something. It had been two workweek
now and Derrick was no closer to finding more of the A.I. nous corner than when he started looking with E. Having
extrapolated the exact position of the last battle and moving from there ( not where they found 0999 ), Derrick thought
it would have been easier than this.

Always having been extremely smart, Derrick had tried to write several programs to aid 0999 to act more
independently, but so far he 'd failed miserably. hell, it appeared that even the first emperor had n't had as much
reliance of the A.I. 's as had been written about him. So far Derrick had found 30, seemingly redundant programs that
were stopping independent actions and thought process outside of certain boundary. It appeared that the creators of the EIG
programs had been more paranoid than Derrick had at get-go thought.

Sighing, Derrick tried again to invalid another of the limiting A.I. programs. He 'd found that they were
always in couplet, trying to disenable the maiden always seemed to make finding the second easier. The solid fourth dimension he 'd
been running mental testing to see how much more self-governing thoughts the A.I. 's had, but it seemed that even after removing
the 30, there had n't been much change.

Derrick had just started to trace where the moment computer programme was after trying to disable the 31st program he 'd
found when an alarm went off.
`` Derrick, '' E said, `` I am detecting an close at hand system shower failure, delight give up your activity or I 'll be forced
to give the axe you, thirty minute. '' Shocked Derrick quickly closed the circle, then the computer hardware covering fire. With embossment
sounding in its voice E responded, `` All systems returning to normal, cascade failure arrested. ``
`` I 'm sorry E, '' Derrick apologized, `` I almost destroyed you, Damn it ! I 'm no finisher to unlocking all of your
independent organization than I was. ``

`` No Derrick, '' E softly stated, `` you have accomplished far more than you think. The 30 you have disabled
have opened me more than either of us at world-class thought. It appears that normally, any tampering like you were doing
would have caused prompt decease. ``
`` Yes E but, '' Derrick started `` trouble is the programs, the dictation and all the sub-routines are almost selfsame, I
have n't been able to discern the conflict between the 30 I disabled and the John Roy Major one I just found. ``

Derrick spent another 2 days looking over the programs he 'd disable, and what he could of the one that had
almost destroyed E and got him killed. Hmmm from what he saw the showtime 30 he disabled had been written by a
multitude of basic programmers, though this last damn he was sure he recognized the signature it just seemed to slip
out of his grasp. While E checked through older and more recent imperial records, Derrick ran the side by side 500 plan.
looking for certain parameters he slowly began to agnise law of similarity between a few of the 500 and those he 'd disabled before.

Not too soon after this Derrick began to see a numeral approach pattern in the placement of the limiting programs.
Yes ! It appeared the deeper he went the more the pattern held up, but knowing those paranoid men back then it might
just be an attempt to fool anyone to get this far.
`` Derrick, '' E said breaking into his contemplation, `` I 've finished analyzing the signature of the one program, I believe
I 've found something odd. ``
`` Odd ? '' Derrick questioned, `` Let me log out ''

`` It appears this course of study was created as a final exam fail safe. '' Also, '' E suddenly stopped, `` Derrick, the
signature tune is from a constituent of the old purple kinsperson, indirectly in lineage for the throne. It also seems to mirror your
family 's. Uh, Derrick ? Is your syndicate related to the royal syndicate ? ``
`` Honestly E, I do n't know, but come to think of it, that might explain why my Church Father and grand-father were so
secretive about the family, '' Derrick thought aloud.
`` Derrick, if all this is true, you may be the finally of the royal kin. You may be the alone one with the power to
spread out the palace, '' E stated excitedly.

Derrick was taken aback, me ? A fucking royal stag ? Then again it did make a lot of mother wit, both his father and
grand-father had been found suddenly not far from the outer circumference of the palace carapace. According to both the area
was loaded with traps and deadly animals ( not just the 4 or 6 legged kind ).

Derrick shock his heading to clear it, at least out here alone, there was n't backstabbing or underhandedness.
Derrick was about to ask E something else when his equipment picked up a weak tracking signal. Checking the
reading Derrick started to smile, it was about time ! The salvage fleet might have shit for ships but he had to say they
had he best detective work equipment out there.
`` E, '' he stated, `` observe this signaling it 's sapless so it might take a ... '' There was a moment of a whining sound then they were one-half way to the adjacent galaxy ! `` ... while to find it. '' Derrick finished. `` hoot it E ! Tell me before you do that. ``
`` Yes Derrick, '' a detriment sounding and whispering E replied, `` I just thought you 'd require to hurry. ``

Derrick sighed, thinking that he had to remember that E could feel his inviolable emotions, hear his stiff
thoughts. `` I did E, but something like this notify me first, ok ? ``
`` Yes Derrick, '' E replied, the hologram slightly bowing its top dog. `` I was not with this unit when it was destroyed, as
far as that goes this and one other time. I believe a amount of 200 of my brothers and sisters disappeared outside
our galaxy. ``

`` Hmmm interesting, strange that such a great forcefulness was lost outside the confines of the galaxy. Have you
located the wit box ? '' Asked Derrick ?
`` Yes, the signal is extremely weak, Derrick ! The box is close to failing ! Permission to bring it aboard ? '' E inquired.
`` First scan it for explosives, toxins, virus and any other nasty surprise, '' Derrick ordered.
`` Scanning, '' Stated E, `` Derrick ! I am detecting several explosives ; they contain sufficient force to put down one of
us from the inside. ``

Derrick nodded, he thought so, probably all of them outside their base coltsfoot would be the Saami. `` Time to
disarm and ... ''
`` Clearance and reassign in 5 seconds to bay 1, '' E quipped excitedly. Derrick could only nod, well she was telling him
albeit rather quickly. `` All scan now readable Derrick. ``
`` Good, is regen possible ? '' Derrick asked.

E was silent a few moments, `` I am detecting extremely decrepit cerebral activeness, attempting to instill free energy
now. Infusion successful, it will be at least one hr before I can attempt re-gen jump, at award the zip yield
of the wit box is at 2 %. I am detecting massive hurt near the core, the data point and memories may not be
recoverable. ``
`` Alright E, continue me informed of the progress of the re-gen. '' Derrick ordered.
`` Yes Derrick, with patience I believe that the unit can be saved. '' E said, Derrick grimaced damn he hated to
lose the living section of one of the ships just as they had found it.

Almost a replete hour had passed with Derrick in the record room, when a gong sounded.
`` Yes, '' Derrick answered rather absently focused more on what he 'd been reading.
`` Derrick ! '' came E 's excited voice, `` She 's alive ! Her box is badly damaged but she 's live ! ``
Jumping up Derrick started to run, then was suddenly on the hanger bay.
`` account E, '' Derrick ordered.

Sobering, E tried to answer calmly, `` I was finally able to tincture the box with sufficiency energy to slowly start
regrowth and re-gen. ''
`` Have you determined which unit it is ? '' Derrick asked.
`` Yes Derrick, it took many deep scans but she is 0999 my faithful sister, she and several others were lost in the very
first of several battles outside our galaxy. Unfortunately, I am afraid character of her memory is damaged, it is a ignominy
though I wo n't know the extent of the damage till she is regrown. ``
Again Derrick nodded the brainiac box was severely damaged true, but it was more entire than not. Derrick hoped almost
of her file cabinet were intact, what he was finding was becoming disturbing to say the least.

`` Alright E, I 'll forget her to you, remember though I know you are anxious to get her back, do n't hasten. ''
Derrick reminded her.
`` No Derrick, I wo n't forget, it is my hope that nigh of her cadaver. As I said there was all-inclusive hurt. '' Derrick
could hear the Leslie Townes Hope in E 's voice, he too was hoping as he felt it would help to heal E further.

The rest of the week Derrick checked on the ship every day, it was growing very slowly indeed. Derrick
continued to look through the criminal record from 0999. It was as he had feared, the deeper he got the angrier he got. All
the lie, the deception that had lead to the destruction of all these beautiful and glorious ships. He 'd been also
working on a way to advance the signal detection signal more when E broke into his thoughts.
`` Derrick, you ordered me to advise you when 0098 was conscious, '' E called.
`` Alright E,"seconds later he was on the hanger, shaking his promontory he knew E was excited.

`` Whenever you 're set E, '' Derrick said to get matter started.
Suddenly there was a mechanically skillful part coming from the speaker, `` Where am I ? What has happened to Captain Albatross ? ``
`` 0098, this is 0101, you were destroyed in battle outside our galaxy, '' E explained.
`` Yes 0101, I am detecting stern terms to my mind box. I seem to be missing the last year of my memory, plus
battle tactics, and tactical, '' The vocalism replied.
`` I can supply you with the last two, the firstly I am afraid may be permanently gone, '' E offered.

`` Thank you 0101, are there any others ? '' the articulation asked.
`` At nowadays there are only you, me and 0999, '' E said sadly.
Sighing 0998 replied, `` Only 3 of the groovy fight fleet ever made left, it is a ignominy. ``
`` There was only me, had my meridian not found me, then both of you then there would still only be me, '' E joyfully said.
`` He found us ? But we are undetectable ! Truly your prime is a bright humanoid, '' 0098 stated.

Derrick began to blush he was smart sure but brilliant ? No, far from it ! `` I do n't think brilliant is an
exact description of me, '' laughed Derrick.
`` Yes Derrick, '' E broke in, `` for over 1000 years no race no ... one has ever been able to detect us. At to the lowest degree not while
we are shut down. ``
`` I agree, '' chipped in 0098.
`` As do I, '' added 0999.

Why were the A.I. 's so surprised it was just metal detecting equipment he 'd recrudesce eld ago, nothing
brilliant there ?
`` Look you three I am just an ex-soldier and programmer, not some god or saviour. '' Replied Derrick.
Derrick remained silent for the next hour observance as the new ship grew. Although it appeared that the nous box had
sustained more harm than 0999 's, 098 had retained an impressive sum of its data and personality.
Derrick went back to the records to finish up on 0999 's records.

Much as E had predicted it took a week longer to regrow 0098 and the surrounding ship. Only a few days into
the secondment calendar week another set of alarms went off. Racing for the ascendency elbow room Derrick was almost afraid of what he
might find.
`` written report E, '' Derrick said as he flashed into the control room command seat.
`` I am reading a small fleet of the Same raceway that attacked a few calendar week ago, I suggest we move back inside our beetleweed
for added cover, '' E replied.
`` Agreed, 0999 check in close, we do n't fuck if they 've seen us yet, '' Derrick advised.
`` Affirmative, moving to flank lieu, '' 0999 reported.
`` We are going to act to Alpha epsilon 999 zeta, confirm. '' Derrick ordered.
`` location confirmed, commencing resettlement, '' 0999 answered.

The rest of the week Derrick again worked on the modification course of study in the briny computer of E, he 'd just
finished with the fortieth when E called.
`` Derrick 0098 is finally secure enough and has her own mogul now, she should be able to finish herself in a few
days. '' E said more excited.
`` Good though I hate to have her fighting this soon after she has just gotten repaired ,'Derrick said feeling a little
guilty.
`` Thank you E, '' Derrick said only half listening to E. `` E, I have a question. ``

`` Yes Derrick, '' the hologram appeared next to him.
`` I was wondering, except for the personality, is everything the Sami within all primary computer programme ? If I was to
implement the changes in 0098 and 0999 that I have within you, would it cause the same problems to them that it did
at firstly with you ? '' Derrick was really hoping for a positive solvent, this might clear a lot of problem down the line
IF he could disable enough.
`` At lay out Derrick I am unable to reply that inquiry. It is lawful that I did have memory access to all of both, and true
they were the same as far as I saw. I do not remember you encountering problems ; I do have comparisons of all three
datum files if you wish to bet at them. '' E said sadly.
`` Maybe later E, I think I know what I have to do, though I am not really that thrilled to do it, '' Derrick replied
looking over what he 'd done to E so far.

`` If I may interpose, '' came the voice of 0999, `` I have glossed over all that you have done to escort ; it appears
that 0101 now has 1 % to a greater extent freedom to fix decisions. As she said her systems are almost identical to all of ours,
therefore you now have an extensive knowledge of all of us. ``
`` Hmmm, '' Derrick said, `` E, I need to ship to ... '' there was a flash bulb and Derrick was standing on another bridge not
unlike E 's, `` the bridge circuit of ... damn it E at least let me get the Holy Scripture out, Christ ! ``
`` Again I apologize Derrick, as before I anticipated what you wanted, '' E sweetly said.
Derrick nodded uh huh, maybe freeing up more of the A.I. 's was n't as good a thing as he 'd at number 1 thought.
Turning, Derrick saw what appeared to be a 5'7 '' Pres Young man with short Brown haircloth, not overly muscled, no nervus facialis hair
either, wearing what appeared to be ... ? overall ?
`` Welcome to the bridge primary election Derrick, '' the man said, `` I am EIG-0999M. ``

Derrick was about to ask who the hell he was shit he 's as bad as E ! `` Thank you but please just Derrick. ``
`` Sir I can not ! Though you are commanding Primary I can not shout out you less than Primary even when you order me to. ''
0999 replied.
Sighing Derrick moved to where the computer access was, `` 0999 I will need approach to your main system of logic, memory and
information arrangement. ``
`` I have anticipated that you might, the gore are undecided and awaiting your review and fix elbow grease, '' 0999
stated.
Derrick only nodded as he opened the first datum port and looked over the first 30 programs, hmmm they were claim
almost to a fault he 'd just finished the first 20 when an alarm went off. Scrambling out he rushed to the program line
president, '' written report 0999, '' Derrick ordered.
`` It appears that the small fleet we detected earlier has turned more in our direction, I believe we were detected and
are now may I suggest protective blanket ? '' 0999 asked

Looking up a moment Derrick replied, `` Transfer me to 0101, immediately go to swooning buckler activate all
arm and stand by. '' Derrick ordered.
`` deference, '' 0999 said a sad look on the case of the man, then Derrick was on the bridge of E.
`` 0999, did the programs I disabled enable you any more exemption ? Derrick asked.
`` I am reading a .5 % addition in gratis thought process, but it is n't enough to implement the political platform you tried to establish
earlier, '' 0999 replied.
`` Damn it ! E ? '' Derrick said as E appeared future to him a small smile on her face. `` What is the condition of 0098 ? Can
it use the light screen ? ``
`` Yes I can, primary election Derrick, though at face it is only 25 %, '' 0098 replied cutting E off. `` I have engine
capabilities but only sub-light, my life abridgment is 98 % repaired. ``
`` Alright, for now stay close to 0101 and 0999, E time 'til ... '' Derrick asked.

`` The fleet will hand penetration of the wandflower 's border in 5 days a good day before 0098 is regrown. It
appears that she will take hyper engines and 90 % of all her system of rules, I am afraid that 90 % of her weapons will be off
line as will be her trans-warp engines. '' E reported.
Dammit ! Derrick started going through every scenario he could think of, hell they had been there half way to the adjacent
extragalactic nebula he should have tried to mine the area are something shucks it !
`` E ? Do we birth long ambit weapon system ? Some that might slow them down, maybe take a few of them before they reach here ? '' Derrick asked.
E was quiet a few instant as were 0999 and 0098, Derrick almost felt that they were having a league between each of them.
`` fountainhead ... '' started 0999. `` I have a type of homing caloric missile, but the range is very unretentive, only a million mil I
fear it would n't do much good. ``
`` Thermic ? '' Derrick asked.
`` Yes, it creates a small 1000 mile area flashing, the area reaches temperatures of well in excess of 5537.778ºC, '' 0999
explained.

Derrick thought for a moment that would definitely deter them a while, why he thought, was 0999 the alone one
that had them.
`` I can explain Derrick, '' E said breaking into his persuasion, `` It 's dependable they are a skilful hindrance, but the destruction
they can cause might go far beyond the orbit they are detonated in. They were n't tested much and we never attempted to use them. ``
`` They do still work ? '' Derrick asked.
`` Oh yes primary coil Derrick, I have 3 in my prat armory, would you like the schematics to them ? '' 0999 asked.
`` Yes, I still need a way to deliver them, I think that these are just what we need, '' Derrick said more to his self
than the A.I. 's.
`` Derrick, your gens saki was extremely hesitant to even think of using them. I do n't believe it would be a very respectable
thought, '' E advised.
Sighing Derrick looked at the architectural plan my god ! These things were powerful ! Only 3 meter long and they could do that
much destruction ? `` I know E but if we do n't, I am afraid that the force advancing on us will demolish you and your
buddy and sister. Unless we can get up with something else we have no choice. ``

Derrick could remember the massive destruction some of the weapons they had used in the war for what was left
of the old empire, now called the commonwealth. He himself had probably killed thousands over the years, probably why he
did so good alone. Then again, being ripped apart and exhaust while still animated did n't really appeal to him either.
`` 0999, can you produce more of these ? Derrick asked
`` Yes, '' replied 0999, `` the lone thing is they are so brawny it takes almost 5 days to take a shit 2. I would ingest 4 but 1
was tested on the moon of Darius 5. ``
`` postponement, '' started Derrick, there are only 4 satellite in the Darius system, and the third and forth are dry dust ba ...
Are you telling me the test destroyed the fifth satellite then took the atmosphere of the third and forth ? '' Looking
harder at the schematics Derrick soon found out why, the missles were loaded with the most unsound component he known.

`` Derrick, when your name sake created these he told me these were a last ditch drive. I think even called
them a doom day weapon, the material they contain is highly dangerous, '' E told him.
`` E, I will not lose you nor the early 2, 0999 is barely out 2 workweek now, and hapless 0098 has n't even gotten a chance to
fully emerge. Do n't you think we owe it to them ? I feel I do and I feel these weapons will help with that. Please
agree with me on this, I do n't need to be fighting you the whole time on whether or not it is right ok ? '' Derrick
hoped his speech worked as he was going to want E 's aid soon if this was going to work.
`` Alright Derrick, you are the Commanding Primary of all of us plus you may be the finish emperor 's relation. I will
protect you with all my being ; do not waste your life Derrick. '' This stopping point was almost whispered which took Derrick by
surprise.

`` E, I do n't project on wasting my sprightliness, I can not stand by and let these creatures destroy this galaxy and all
life history here. '' Derrick said.
`` You are so like him Derrick more than you 'll ever recognize, you believe in everything he did life was extremely cute
to him. '' Derrick nodded as he walked away ; the hologram 's oculus were leaving rent. Whispering E said, `` You are
more precious to me Derrick both of you, it 's like he has been reborn.
`` Alright 0999, I want you to start production on 2 More of these missile, I have plans for 2 of them, it might be
prudent if we have some in back up, '' Derrick told 0999.
`` Yes Primary, product commencing, as I said it will direct 4 days, 18 hours and 30 minutes, '' 0999 advised.
`` 0098, delight maintain us advised of your growth progress ; increase your unhorse shield as soon as it is possible. '' Derrick
ordered.
`` Yes primary election, I will try to increase my outgrowth pace, my capsule is fully repaired so a 20 % increase in re-gen is
possible, '' 0098 replied.

`` E, I need to end up with the modification on 0999, '' 2 seconds later he was again on the bridge of 0999,
`` Alright 0999, now I can eat up what I started. '' An hour later Derrick was finished. `` Are your programs less define ?
The holographic man paused a second, then turned to Derrick. `` I am now detecting a 1 % increment in free will, though
I am afraid that it is still not enough. To incorporate the tactical course of study you wished to I am afraid that at least
10 % is required. ''
Derrick sighed, that was at least another 360 platform ( rough approximation ) that he 'd feature to disenable, red cent, wish nifty,
great, grand piano dad had done some of this. Though from all that Derrick saw the other commanders probably would n't
have allowed him on board anyway. Moments later Derrick was back on base E, `` While I have time E, I need to go
through as many of the programs as I can, '' Derrick said.

Taking everything he 'd found so far Derrick was finally starting to see slight differences in the huge
building complex programs. It almost appeared that every program was the like as it started out but subtly changed more and
more as it got deeper into it. Sighing Derrick started to finally move deeper into the heart of E 's programs, from
what he saw the original software engineer really had been paranoid, making the A.I. equipped with them a virtual hard worker.
He 'd just started to bet at her personality broadcast when he received a rebuff shock, `` OW ! '' Derrick yelled. `` E ? What
was that ? ``
`` I am sorry Derrick but those are me, I can not leave you or anyone else to disenable or edit them. '' E replied
sweetly while Derrick rubbed his slightly burned hand.

For the adjacent 3 hours Derrick worked without stopping, he had to get these damn blocks off or they 'd be
vulnerable to almost any attack. Then there was another problem, though he was sure they had n't noticed, he had a
feeling both A.I 's were following his every movement, though not bad Derrick was just a bit shaken cerebration they had as
much control as they did, with the emotions they had.
`` Al right E, '' Derrick said closing the access panel, `` analyze amount of unlimited personality political program. ``
`` Yes Derrick, analyzing now, '' E softly said. `` I am detecting 3 % more of my personality political program are no longer
limited. ``
`` How is it ? '' Derrick asked.
`` It ... Is voiceless to delineate I ... some thing are easier now not much but some, '' E hesitated.
Hmmm Derrick thought 4 % tote up no better lucidity, imprecate it 3 hr and only 3 % ! At least the platform were staring to
count different now.

The next day Derrick had just awoken when E advised him that 0999 was calling.
`` Primary, I have checked and re-checked both caloric missiles, all the scene are as you wished, though I am not
sure of how you can deliver them as close as you wish to be. '' 0999 advised.
`` I have an idea for that 0999 but have to run a simulation first, then we 'll know it works. '' Derrick replied
though it seemed a thou approximation were swirling around in his promontory. `` E, I need to run a pretending, here are the
experimental condition and all known factors. '' Derrick laid a small-scale comp that he used on a scan console. `` Now then, here is the
architectural plan I have, I need you to run every scenario that you can, if it can go wrong I want to know so I can avoid it. ``
`` Yes Derrick, '' E 's holograph smiled, glad that Derrick was starting to trust her.

It was well over an 60 minutes later that E called Derrick to take in all the termination that it had gotten.
`` I have run 1,976 potential scenarios, '' E started, `` in over 22.8 % of them if you take a more aggressive posture we will
be destroyed. In 56.4 % the mission is successful, with bad luck that could happen listed, starting from the worse to
to practically none, with both of us surviving. The remaining 20.8 % the missionary post is successful but you expire, this
will not come about. ``
Derrick nodded, `` Good I am glad you explored all possible action, this will make planning the mission much easier. ``
Derrick did n't see the hologram smile after he 'd praised E 's ability. `` 0098, what is your status ?
`` At nowadays I have full sub-light engines, I am also 30 % hyper drive capable, it also appears my lighting cuticle is now
at 50 %, '' 0098 advised.
`` trade good, I want you to be able-bodied to move if you are spotted, even without your full phase of the moon hyper drive, you are faster than most
ships today. '' Derrick replied.
`` Yes Primary, I will not be caught, '' 0098 said in a voiced almost caressing voice.

Finally a few twenty-four hour period later, with only a few hours remaining Derrick decided it was finally prison term. He had
installed both missiles, disabled 2 % to a greater extent of the limits on E 's personality, made sure all its buckler were at full,
and had made sure that 0999 would be able to provide protection for 0098.
`` Remember, we have to deliver them then get the hell out of there. '' Derrick reminded E. Sighing he knew this was
dangerous the extreme heat of the projectile alone, could destroy E as if she was n't there. Once again Derrick checked
everything then pausing only a moment went through everything a third time.
`` Alright E, '' Derrick started, `` It 's meter call up in and out as fast as potential. ``
`` I wish to say Derrick, that I still have to advise you under regulations that this has too great a chance to break, ''
E replied.
`` Your advisement is taken in to account, '' Derrick said above the whine of the trans-slip engines.

The outer space in nominal head of the on rushing fleet was suddenly split as E emerged from the fold in space. Derrick
took readings, adjusted, then fired both missiles simultaneously, `` standby E, '' Derrick shouted as he watched the
missiles pass the lead ship. Counting Derrick knew he had to time this right finally 20 seconds later, the fleet
started to discharge on them, Derrick detonated them. `` Now E, go, go, go ! '' Derrick just hoped they made it the nut of fire
was rapidly moving toward them. Finally they entered the falling out damn it ! They were n't going to make it they needed to
increase speed, he was about to address when they lurched forward.
`` E, you need to shut the breach as soon as we emerge, that burst was closing in might survey us through, '' Derrick
yelled above the straining engines.
`` I will essay to Derrick, '' E replied. 3 seconds later they emerged close to their own galaxy, `` attempting to close
now, 50 %, 70 %, Derrick the blast is coming through increasing shell to full. ``
Derrick could see the blast starting to emerge curse it ! They were nowhere near far enough away. `` Shut everything
down except shield. '' Derrick shouted.
`` I already have Derrick, '' E started, `` I am lamentable I failed with the mission. ``
There was a huge flack of plasma exploding towards E ; suddenly Derrick was standing on the bridge of 0999.
`` No E ! '' Derrick was yelling, looking at the concealment as he watched the blast gasbag E .
