Derrick was moving through the memory access way toward the briny part of the shipyard. Ahead to his right staff serjeant Randall Jimison signaled to his left. police sergeant get-go course of instruction Daniel Norman nodded as he adjusted the mirror. Looking back he signaled two guards in a criterion patrol. Nodding Derrick signaled to consider them quietly no stochasticity. Shaking his pass he thought back to Tempro.

Both men slipped around the niche as Derrick watched in the mirror that they had left. As quiet as he remembered them being, Derrick watched as they approached then put both guards away with little to no randomness.

Derrick came to both men at a run as they stood in movement of the thick security door. When both men shrugged at him Derrick again thought to Tempro, a moment later the door clicked then slowly opened. Smiling both men nodded as they moved inside.

Derrick nodded to both men as he signaled to spread out looking for any more safeguard. Shaking his head Derrick had n't expected the situation that was here. Apparently the ship yard had been infiltrated by some really bad characters. According to Tempro all that was known was that there had been an explosion on the transport as it moved away from the ship railyard.

Derrick had cursed when he saw what appeared to be pirates again in the chief hall. So far the scan had indicated thirty men that were here, well twenty eight now. All the reports had said that XXX body had been found after the transport had exploded. Further into the coordination compound Derrick almost growled when he saw that their foe had tripled their guard. ‘ red cent'he thought, ‘ did they know that they were here ?'

Derrick saw that both men were working their way back to him. `` I can see at to the lowest degree eight out here, and another eight at the next junction. Might get one set of them not trusted about both. '' Norman told him.

'' I tend to agree, we could get five or six, but afraid the last two or three might set off the alarm. Sorry Commander. '' Jimison told Derrick.
Derrick sat a here and now as he was listening to Tempro. Nodding Derrick described a way into where the people from the exaltation were being held. A mere ten minutes later they were well inside about to make a move when an alarm went off.

'' What 's with all the damn noise ? '' A vauntingly man with several cicatrice on his older face snarled into his com.

'' Found the outer nigh guard abruptly sir, '' came the vocalism of a young sounding man.

'' WHAT ! ! ? ? Everyone out ! Find the mother fucker ! Leave three here with me, ought to be enough to ensure these fright pouf. '' The obvious drawing card was yelling into the com.

Derrick smiled then nodded to both Gregory John Norman and Jimison. Both men, moved through the back of the wall picking their positions. Taking a recondite breath Derrick knew that this future portion was high-risk as it always was. Checking his repulser vest he stepped out into the room.

'' Hey asshole ! '' Derrick yelled then dived back in the wall.

All four of the pirate ship whirled toward where they had heard the shout. `` They are in here with us ! '' The older mark faced man yelled into his com. Then toward the room he said, `` You 're dead you piece of shit ! ''

hurry toward the paries, the drawing card only heard the foremost then the second base of his men go down. `` Get back ... '' The man started to yell then the com. was flying across the room with a hole in it. A moment later the third of the men went down.

Grabbing one of the female in the elbow room the man shouted to the air placing a wicked knife at her throat. `` Go ahead but I guarantee that 's she 's beat whether or not you get me ! '' Two shots from different directions were heard. Then the knife was flying in one direction as the man was falling back with a hole in the side of his head.

Derrick ran out to check on Shiloh and Grant. `` Lieutenant battle of Shiloh, Warrant Grant can you both stand ? ''

Both men looked up at Derrick with both their mouths hanging open. `` Sir ? '' battle of Shiloh stated. `` Is that really you ? ''

Derrick had to chortle, `` Yes, though I think we 're about to accept company. I want you and Grant to get everyone out of here and back to your ship. '' Derrick smiled more as he patted both of the men on their backs.

Ulysses Simpson Grant snapped to attention as did battle of Pittsburgh Landing. `` Will do sir ! '' Grant said as they gathered everyone up heading for the open wall.

Derrick waited until they were all out then entered the wall himself moving to a wagerer spatial relation. Touching his ear he said. `` Take them all no survivors ! ''

'' No problem, '' came Jimison 's inexorable response.

'' Happy to strip up the grime. '' Norman said with a smile.

The next ten arcminute could only be described as a blood bathing tub as the men came in en masse shot. Then they were falling almost as fasting, as all three of the men took them out. ineffectual to see their targets the terminal few panicked trying to escape. They were also taken down by several well placed shots.

A sound Derrick had n't heard in a long sentence came from his communicator. `` Yes ? !"Derrick stated when he opened the transmission channel.

'' Commander ? '' Came the voice of Shiloh.

'' Yes lieutenant ? '' Derrick said a import later.

'' Just wanted to let you live that we are secure. The married woman and four nestling were well hidden so they were prophylactic. '' Shiloh replied.

'' married woman and four fry ? I never knew you were married ! Before you leave I 'd like to receive them. '' Derrick told the man as he silently cursed to himself. Damn it ! Why in the hell had n't he thought that they might be married AND have children. Shaking his nous he guessed he thought that they were all lone wolf like he was.

'' Sure Commander, we 've got a bit of time before we leave. We have to restart the plasm movement so it 's going to be at least an minute. '' battle of Pittsburgh Landing responded.

'' Oh, good then I 'll get to meet all of them. '' Derrick said through tight drawn sass. `` At least I hope I get to cope with all of them. ''

'' Yes sir. Mika is thrilled to meet the man she says kept me active to occur back to her ! '' battle of Pittsburgh Landing chuckled.

'' Well, I 'm beaming I have a fan. '' Derrick said with a hint of laughter in his voice. Looking up Derrick 's cheek was suddenly sick as he nodded. Damn it ! They had so piddling time !

Turning toward both Norman and Jimison, Derrick advised them. `` I 'm sending you both back to Tempro, we 've only got three hours before all inferno breaks loose. I really do n't require to be here when the ranger arrive. It 's going to select all Tempro has to get clear enough. Unfortunately the ripalon energy prevents him from using a lot of his apparatus. ``

'' Are we in danger air force officer ? '' Jimison asked.

'' No I do n't recall so as long as we are away before the time. '' Derrick replied.

'' Do we experience to sir ? Ca n't we just save them all ? '' Gregory John Norman said with a grim face.

'' I wish I could. Few know of Tempro and I'd rather save it that way as long as potential. That plus I 'd detest for others to opine I was changing their and my past. No I have to keep thing as close to what they should be as potential. You know I need all of you, I am taking a very big risk taking battle of Shiloh 's family. Though if I do n't, I know he 'd hate me as long as he lived. '' Derrick told them.

Both men nodded with large eyes then they winked out as Derrick thought to Tempro. [ `` I want you to be set to go as soon as potential. Are the trackers working ? ]

[ `` Yes forefather, they are functioning at optimum efficiency. I have another five ready for you sire. '' ] Came Tempro 's thoughts.

[ `` commodity send them now. ] Derrick replied. On a table next to Derrick there was a shimmering as five extremely small electronic man appeared. [ `` kitchen range, '' ] Derrick asked.

[ `` I can get a clear sign for at to the lowest degree 200,000 kilometers. After that a booster is needed. I estimate that this is barely sufficiency distance to render minimal price. '' ] Tempro answered.

Derrick nodded as he scooped up the electronics heading toward where the tape drive was docked. Stepping onboard he was suddenly surrounded by three of Shiloh 's tyke, and then a slender Asian looking charwoman walked to him giving him a hug as he patted her back.

'' I am so glad to finally assemble you sir. '' The adult female said as soon as she released him. `` Thanks to you I still have my Gunter. ''

Derrick had been prepared to actually hate the cleaning woman. Now he could see why Gunter Shiloh had been drawn to her. `` Thank you ma'am. I just hope that the side by side few hr are n't too often of a stress to you or your nestling. '' Derrick said as he was shaking the hand of the sixteen and xiv year old sons of the woman. A ten class old boy was hiding further back walking out when his mother called him.

Derrick shook his head there was no way he could ever hate any of these offspring of Shiloh. Slyly he patted all three of the male on the back as he moved toward where battle of Shiloh and Grant were in the command of the ship.

Both men stood to pledge Derrick as he came in. `` Glad to see you commander. You really saved us back there. '' battle of Pittsburgh Landing said.

Looking down Grant stated. `` We should be set up to go in half an minute. Can we collapse you and your men a ride ? ''

'' My men ? '' Derrick said with a surprised look.

'' I know when more than one shot is taken sir. Especially when the leader went down. Two shots from two different management. pit if I did n't know better I 'd say it was Norman and Jimison. '' Here Ulysses Simpson Grant hung his mind. `` I know that 's impossible as they both are utter. ''

It took all Derrick had not to smile as he thought of both the men alive and well back on Tempro. `` Yes, it was a sad day when both of them died. I felt a part of myself ripped away when I found out. ''

Both Grant and Shiloh were nodding as they hung their heads. `` I 'm gladiola you got to meet the family. '' Shiloh told Derrick.

'' Yes, you have some amercement boys deputy. '' Derrick told him.

Nodding Shiloh suddenly looked up. `` Thank you sir, what did you think of little Shelly ? ''

'' Shelly ? I did n't adjoin a Shelly. I was wondering why you told me you had four fry when I only met three ! '' Derrick stated.

battle of Shiloh 's eyes got blanket then he nodded as he picked up a com. `` Shelly Shiloh ! You salutary not be in the plasm reactor room again ! I 'm afraid I have to go get her. I 'll be good back. ''

'' I have to go police lieutenant ; I just hope our route crown of thorns again. '' Derrick said as he was cursing under his breath. [ Follow him Tempro ! If you have to take him early when he is touching her then do it ! '' ]

[ Yes sire. I have him on now. I will IMT you as soon as you are clearly. '' ] Tempro replied.

[ `` Alright leaving now. Start away as soon as I am aboard. ] Derrick said.

'' Sir ? '' Derrick heard from backside him as he was about to step out of the ship hatch. `` It would only take a moment ; do you really have to go ? ''

Derrick stopped, turned around towards Shiloh standing to his full six foot two inch stature. `` I 'll adjoin her one day Lieutenant, I suggest no matter what happens in the next few hours ? You hold that small girl tight, very blotto understand ? ''

battle of Shiloh nodded a smell of surprise and headache on his face as he thanked the commander. Hurrying past Derrick, Shiloh made his way to the reactor room as fast as he could. Derrick smiled sadly as he stepped outside the ship then winked out.

Shiloh started to hound in the reactor room for Shelly as fast as he could. Something cryptic in what the commandant said was nagging at him. Finally ! Shilo found her sitting on the other face of the reactor way watching the locomotive engineer.

His men on his pelvic girdle he walked up behind her. Slowly turning her head she gulped a bit at the face on her father 's fount. `` Uh-oh. '' She stated. `` I 'm in bother ? ''

'' Not as much as when your mother finds out Pres Young lady ! '' battle of Pittsburgh Landing told her with a dismal look on his face that was quickly melting. The sorrowful, almost sad look Shelly 's grimace held was about to induce Shiloh to laugh. He knew all her tricks though he was n't immune to all of them.

'' Are you going to tell mommy ? '' The nine year old asked of her father.

'' Hmmmm, not sure, though this is a respectable thing to guard over your head do n't you mean ? '' Gunter said a little smile low grinning on his lips.

'' Daddy ! I 'm just a kid ! '' Shelly cried.

Shiloh was shaking his head as he touched the black curls on her head. `` Oh yeah ? '' Shiloh said with his hand on his chin. `` Sometimes I wonder about that ! Your vocabulary and knowledge seem to be far beyond that of a simple kid ! Come on let 's go get you strapped in with your pal and mother we 're about to leave. ''

They were walking toward the berthing area when the Commander 's go words came back to him. [ deputy, I suggest no affair what happens in the next few hours. You hold that little miss tight, very tight understand ? ] Damn it ! Gunter still could n't escape from the feeling that something was up. It seemed way to anathemize much a coincidence that the commandant had shown up.

Taking out his com. Gunter called his wife. `` I 'm taking Shelly to the control elbow room Mika. ''

'' I thought you did n't provide her in there. '' Came her reply.

'' Usually I would n't, but I got a strange touch. I have n't had one like this in a foresightful prison term conclusion clip was with the commander also. I almost ignored it, damn near got me killed. '' He told his wife.

'' Gunter, are you alright ? I can get a line almost fright in your vocalism ! '' She replied.

'' Like I said not sure, things just seem odd. '' he said.

'' Alright but hold her tight hon. '' Mika told him.

Clicking off Gunter could only stare at the com. with a startled look. Almost the Sami thing that the commanding officer had said !

Making his way to the control room he sat with Shelly on his lap. To say the little fille was thrilled was an understatement. It was almost an hour later when Shiloh looked over to Grant as they both started the procedures to undock then lead.

'' tier look well, all hatch closed, all seals ripe. No rift, no personnel casualty of standard pressure. Now backing out, ready when you are sir. '' President Grant told him.

battle of Shiloh was about to activate the engine when he noticed they were still a lilliputian close to the post. `` Mr. Ulysses S. Grant I suggest we put more than a bare thousand km between us and the station. Did you notify the Rangers of what happened ? ''

'' I have been trying ; it appears that there is an unknown Department of Energy coming from the place. I have compensated for it though still no link. '' Ulysses Simpson Grant told him.

Something was nagging at battle of Shiloh 's mentality more as he watched them start to finally slip further from the place. The zip he was seeing he swore he 'd seen it before. `` Ranger command. This is channelize R-00101. Do you take me Ranger control ? ''

A moment later there was a crackling as they both heard, `` this -- -- -command. You are in a -- - -- -- - -- -. repeat you -- - -- - highschool -- -- - sphere. '' Came the sapless sounding staticky signal.

'' Command we we 're attacked by pirates. Please send avail to old outer space yard OR - 030 near outer rim. '' grant said. `` Crap ca n't appear to get through. conjecture we need to get advance away. ''

Shiloh nodded they were at 4000 kilometer and steadily moving though it was all inertia. Reaching for engine control Shiloh pressed forward gripping Shelly tighter, as what had been nagging at his nous broke free !

'' Follow them as close as you dare Tempro. '' Derrick said as he gripped the control hot seat. Damn it he hated to hold back like this ! `` Time ? ''

'' Information says that the ship exploded five minutes from now. '' Tempro said as they watched the ship slowly make its way further from the station. `` 4000 kilometer, 4100, 4300, 4500. Now initiating. ``

A minute later the integral ship exploded ! `` Did you get them all ? '' Derrick almost yelled.

'' I am having trouble retrieving the last two ! Sire I am afraid I am going to mislay them ! '' Tempro cried.

Derrick flew to the mastery input key plug-in as he was typing quicker than he 'd ever done. `` Shelby ! '' Derrick was screaming as she appeared. `` I need you to interlace your IMT with Tempro 's ''

'' Derrick that would glow my IMT out completely. It would expect at least a week to regenerate. '' Shelby told him.

Derrick was still typing as fast as he could. `` Please Shelby I ca n't mislay them ! I ca n't let them die out there alone ! I ca n't ! ``

Shelby 's eyes had tears in them as she nodded : `` Now syncing IMT organisation together. sidekick I am increasing and matching you IMT frequency. I can see them brother now increasing to one hundred percent, now one hundred ten, one twenty, one thirty five. Now at one fifty dollar bill. ''

'' I have them father the increase is helping. Almost there ! '' Tempro told Derrick.

Derrick looked at Shelby as tears started to fall from her middle. `` I 'm no-account Derrick I have no more. I can feel the system starting to go bad. ''

Derrick heard a upstage burst as the ship shook a bit. `` Shelby are you alright ? ''

'' Not completely Derrick, I am afraid that my IMT system of rules has exploded. It also seems to have taken out a few of my system. I 'm afraid I will bear to regen for a time. I 'm sorry I failed you Derrick. '' Shelby said with weeping in her eye then she vanished.

'' Shelby ! '' Derrick was yelling as there was a shimmer on the floor near him. Shining bright a moment then Derrick saw an unconscious Shiloh with his arms wrapped tightly around a nine year old young woman.

The girl struggled out of his arms as she started to cry then tried to come alive her Father of the Church up. `` Daddy, please arouse up ! I 'm disconsolate I was in technology again delight daddy ! '' Looking up seeing Derrick the niggling girl asked, `` Can you delight help my pappa ? He 's damage ! ''

Derrick immediately looked at Tempro, `` infirmary now ! '' Tempro nodded as Gunter winked out the footling girl staring at the spot he 'd been in.

'' He 's ok, he 's in the hospital. You know what that is do n't you ? '' Derrick asked a worried look on his face.

'' Of course of study Mister, '' the short girl said as a unusual look came over her face. `` It 's a place for the care of the infirm, sick, or injured ; hospital or facility service as a hospital. ''

Derrick nodded as he looked closely at the youngster. She appeared to be normal though as he well knew looking were ALWAYS deceiving. `` Please follow Tempro to where he is please that way you can be there when he awakes. ''

Slowly getting off the deck she finally noticed the early men who were there with him. Then she turned toward Derrick, `` is daddy going to be ok ? I remember that something exploded as daddy was reaching to do something with the controls. I heard him yell as he held me tight then he was quiet. Then all of a sudden we were here. This is really strange. ''

Derrick was nodding as he watched the short girl following Tempro out. Yes he thought, strange indeed !

It was perhaps a day and a half later when Gunter jerked awake then tried to get up. To his surprisal he could hardly move. A little girl 's giggle drew his attention to the other side of the bio-bed. `` Shelly ? '' he said.

'' Hey daddy, you 're finally wake ! I was afraid that you were n't going to awake up ! '' Here the little girl threw her branch around the man as tears of joy started to fall from her eyes. `` I was so scared I was going to lose you ! ''

'' I feel o.k., where exactly are we ? '' Gunter asked.

'' well, the see through man said we are on an ... '' Here she was thinking a consequence then her face lit up. `` Yes ! The see through man said we are on one of the elite imperial Guardian ships ! ''

'' WHAT ! ? ? I thought all of those were destroyed centuries ago. '' A startled Gunter said.

'' Basically they were. '' Came Derrick 's part from the door. Though one survived, with her I have managed to chance XIV others. ''

'' commander ! Dear God it 's serious to see you again ! Are you a captive here also ? I 'd get up but I seem to be held here. ''

Derrick started to laugh as Gunter again tried to rise then conflict to get loose. `` No, not a prisoner though I know how you feel. I have experienced the bio-bed a few clock time myself. ''

'' Bio-bed ? I ... Shelly are you ok ? You were n't hurt ? '' A now very care Gunter asked.

'' I 'm fine daddy ; the see through man checked me and said I was in excellent health. '' Shelly said.

'' The see through man ? What is she talking about ? '' Gunter asked.

A shimmering of light appeared beside the bio-bed as Tempro appeared. With a sigh Tempro said, `` I believe she is referring to me deputy. '' Then Tempro pant as Shelly ran her hired man through his visage with a giggle.

'' See daddy ? The see through man ! '' Shelly said with another giggle.

Sighing again Tempro looked at Gunter, `` Please sir, could you please get her to barricade doing that ? I find it quite rude ! ''

'' Well I 'll be ! A holo-gram ! What exactly are you ? '' Gunter asked.

'' What you see is a holographical representation of me. I am called Tempro the livelihood Artificial tidings of this ship. '' Tempro said with a suspire as Shelly giggled passing her paw and arm through Tempro.

'' Shelly please stop passing your hand through the hologram ! '' Gunter told her.

Shelly suddenly stopped a strange look and igniter in her optic. Turning toward Tempro she said, `` You are an encoding of the light field as an interference figure of seemingly random variations in the opacity, density, or Earth's surface profile of the photographic medium. ''

Tempro stopped suddenly as he looked at the young young woman. `` Yes I am Miss Shelly. Do you have questions ? ''

Still with a strange feeling on her face she asked, `` Are you generated via genus Lens and laser ? ''

'' No Miss Shelly I am a projection contained within a harmless gas. It sustains the ikon no matter what the light is in the room. I can be made with lens and laser though they are rock oil and faulty. ''

Shelly was nodding as she took in everything that Tempro was telling her. `` It may be potential to raise a organisation to provide you a way to survive outside the ship on your own while maintaining control of the ship. I fear though that with the current technology that it might not be possible for a bit. ''

Tempro was nodding as he was conducting a scan of the little girl. Looking over to Derrick Tempro 's heart got heavy. `` We have to get her to shut that area of her brain off ! father if we do n't it will pour down her ! ''
Derrick looked at the girl completely at a loss for the first prison term in a long time. `` Please let me sir. '' Derrick heard from the bio-bed.

'' Please if there 's anything you can do ! '' Derrick told the interest father on the bed.

'' Shelly ? Shelly it 's daddy. occur back to me indulge girl, it 's ok just come back to daddy. '' Gunter said.

Softly at foremost then they all saw the rip start from her eyes they heard. `` pop ? Daddy ? DADDY ! '' Suddenly the little daughter was running to her beginner as she threw her arms around him. The only when phone they heard was the sobbing of Shelly on her don 's chest.

Then they all heard a suspiration as she fainted on him. Gently picking her up Derrick put her into another bio-bed. `` I want a full moon analysis of her. get out if there is a way to help her ... somehow. ''

Another door opened as Grant walked in. `` You dependable let his wife out soon or we 're going to have a BIG job with that little woman. She damn near took my oral sex off ! ''

'' She 's probably still pissed about the last fourth dimension you got me drunk. '' Gunter growled. `` I am afraid that I ca n't pull up stakes yet. ''

'' What exactly did she say ? '' Derrick asked.

Hiram Ulysses Grant snapped to attention then stated, `` she said and I quote. ‘ If another god forsaken individual or thing ’. '' Here he looked at Tempro, `` sad Tempro. ‘ cum in here to tell me to relax I am either going to violently vote down them or put a hole in the wall.'Unquote. ''

'' Oh crap ! '' Shiloh said. `` She is really crocked. Better let her out before she starts destroying stuff. ''

Derrick 's eyes got large as he looked at both men. `` Tempro bring her straight here. excuse you are taking her and the boy to see her husband. conclude off everything, straight here. ''

Tempro looked at the door then nodded. `` They are all on the way though she seemed to be rather dysphoric. Oh my ! She is yelling at me to hurry ! ''

A moment later a rather angry Asian woman walked in with three boy. `` Gunter ? Shelly ? WHAT IN THE HELL is going on here ? '' Walking to Shelly tears started then she walked to Gunter. `` It happened again did n't it ? ''

Mika hugged Gunter as much as she could then was staring wide eyed at the medical checkup way. Then even wider when Gunter told her that Derrick was trying to discover a way to facilitate Shelly.

Nodding to her married man she got up walking to Derrick. `` Thank you sir for helping them both, I just hope it is possible. She is the only girl I have or will ever give. I damned near choke having her I can never have shaver again. '' Derrick nodded as he leaned to whisper in her ear, causing another round of tears. Then she kissed Derrick 's face telling him thank you as she went to her daughter
