Derrick was moving through the accession way toward the primary section of the shipyard. Ahead to his right stave Sergeant Randall Jimison signaled to his left. Sergeant first stratum Book of Daniel Norman nodded as he adjusted the mirror. Looking back he signaled two safety device in a standard patrol. Nodding Derrick signaled to take them quietly no racket. Shaking his headspring he thought back to Tempro.

Both men slipped around the corner 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 safety away with petty to no noise.

Derrick came to both men at a run as they stood in front of the thick security measures door. When both men shrugged at him Derrick again thought to Tempro, a second later the doorway 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 guards. Shaking his head Derrick had n't expected the situation that was here. Apparently the ship yard had been infiltrated by some really bad character. According to Tempro all that was known was that there had been an blowup on the shipping as it moved away from the ship thou.

Derrick had cursed when he saw what appeared to be buccaneer again in the main hallway. So far the scan had indicated thirty men that were here, well twenty eight now. All the reports had said that XXX eubstance had been found after the transport had exploded. Further into the complex Derrick almost growled when he saw that their opposition had tripled their guards. ‘ hoot'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 least eight out here, and another eight at the next colligation. Might get one set of them not certain about both. '' Gregory John Norman told him.

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

'' What 's with all the shit noise ? '' A large man with several scars on his elder look snarled into his com.

'' Found the outer most safeguard all in sir, '' came the part of a Young sounding man.

'' WHAT ! ! ? ? Everyone out ! Find the bastards ! parting three here with me, ought to be sufficiency to verify these scared pansies. '' The obvious leader was yelling into the com.

Derrick smiled then nodded to both Greg Norman and Jimison. Both men, moved through the back of the walls picking their location. Taking a cryptical breath Derrick knew that this succeeding contribution was risky as it always was. Checking his repulser vest he stepped out into the elbow room.

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

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

Rushing toward the wall, the drawing card only heard the commencement then the moment 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 minute later the third of the men went down.

Grabbing one of the females in the way the man shouted to the air placing a wicked knife at her throat. `` Go ahead but I guarantee that 's she 's dead whether or not you get me ! '' Two shots from different directions were heard. Then the knife was flying in one focus as the man was falling back with a fix in the side of his caput.

Derrick ran out to check up on on battle of Pittsburgh Landing and Grant. `` lieutenant Shiloh, endorsement President Grant can you both stand ? ''

Both men looked up at Derrick with both their oral cavity hanging unfold. `` Sir ? '' Shiloh stated. `` Is that really you ? ''

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

Grant snapped to attention as did Shiloh. `` volition do sir ! '' Ulysses Simpson 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 better position. Touching his ear he said. `` Take them all no survivor ! ''

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

'' Happy to clean up the crud. '' Gregory John Norman said with a smile.

The next ten minutes could only be described as a stock bath as the men came in en masse. Then they were falling almost as fast, as all three of the men took them out. ineffectual to see their targets the final few panicked trying to escape. They were also taken down by several well placed shots.

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

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

'' Yes lieutenant ? '' Derrick said a present moment later.

'' Just wanted to let you know that we are secure. The wife and four minor were well hidden so they were good. '' Shiloh replied.

'' Wife and four children ? I never knew you were married ! Before you leave I 'd like to match 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 point he guessed he thought that they were all loners like he was.

'' Sure Commander, we 've got a bit of clock time before we leave. We have to restart the plasma drive so it 's going to be at to the lowest degree an time of day. '' Shiloh responded.

'' Oh, in force then I 'll get to foregather all of them. '' Derrick said through tight drawn lips. `` At least I hope I get to meet all of them. ''

'' Yes sir. Mika is thrilled to cope with the man she says kept me alive to come back to her ! '' Shiloh chuckled.

'' wellspring, I 'm gladiola I have a fan. '' Derrick said with a jot of laughter in his voice. Looking up Derrick 's face was suddenly grim as he nodded. Damn it ! They had so little fourth dimension !

turning toward both Gregory John Norman and Jimison, Derrick advised them. `` I 'm sending you both back to Tempro, we 've only got three hours before all hell shift loose. I really do n't desire to be here when the forest fire fighter arrive. It 's going to take all Tempro has to get clear enough. Unfortunately the ripalon Energy prevents him from using a lot of his apparatus. ``

'' Are we in danger commander ? '' Jimison asked.

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

'' Do we have to sir ? Ca n't we just save them all ? '' Norman said with a drear boldness.

'' I wish I could. Few know of Tempro and I'd rather keep it that way as long as possible. That plus I 'd hate for others to think I was changing their and my past. No I have to keep open things as close to what they should be as possible. You know I need all of you, I am taking a very big risk taking 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 optic then they winked out as Derrick thought to Tempro. [ `` I want you to be ready to go as soon as possible. Are the trackers working ? ]

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

[ `` just mail them now. ] Derrick replied. On a set back following to Derrick there was a shimmering as five extremely humble electronic musical composition appeared. [ `` chain of mountains, '' ] Derrick asked.

[ `` I can get a clear signal for at least 200,000 kilometers. After that a booster is needed. I estimate that this is barely enough distance to render minimal damage. '' ] Tempro answered.

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

'' I am so gladiola to finally meet you sir. '' The cleaning woman said as soon as she released him. `` Thanks to you I still have my Gunter. ''

Derrick had been prepared to actually hate the char. Now he could see why Gunter Shiloh had been drawn to her. `` Thank you ma'am. I just hope that the next few hours are n't too much of a accent to you or your youngster. '' Derrick said as he was shaking the hand of the XVI and XIV year old son of the woman. A ten year 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 males on the book binding as he moved toward where battle of Shiloh and grant were in the mastery of the ship.

Both men stood to salute Derrick as he came in. `` Glad to see you commander. You really saved us back there. '' Shiloh said.

Looking down grant stated. `` We should be set up to go in half an hour. Can we give 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 stab from two unlike centering. Hell if I did n't know in effect I 'd say it was Norman and Jimison. '' Here Grant hung his head. `` I know that 's impossible as they both are perfectly. ''

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 battle of Shiloh were nodding as they hung their fountainhead. `` I 'm gladiola you got to fit the family. '' Shiloh told Derrick.

'' Yes, you have some fine son police lieutenant. '' Derrick told him.

Nodding battle of Pittsburgh Landing suddenly looked up. `` Thank you sir, what did you opine of little Shelly ? ''

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

Shiloh 's eyes got wide then he nodded as he picked up a com. `` Shelly Shiloh ! You better not be in the plasma reactor elbow 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 way cross 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 clear. '' ] Tempro replied.

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

'' Sir ? '' Derrick heard from behind him as he was about to pace out of the ship hachure. `` It would only submit a moment ; do you really give birth to go ? ''

Derrick stopped, turned around towards Shiloh standing to his full six foot two inch height. `` I 'll run into her one day Lieutenant, I suggest no matter what happens in the future few hours ? You hold that picayune little girl tight, very crocked understand ? ''

Shiloh nodded a flavour of surprise and worry on his case as he thanked the commander. Hurrying past times Derrick, Shiloh made his way to the nuclear reactor way as fast as he could. Derrick smiled sadly as he stepped outside the ship then winked out.

Shiloh started to trace in the nuclear reactor room for Shelly as fast as he could. Something cryptic in what the commanding officer said was nagging at him. Finally ! Shilo found her sitting on the other side of the reactor way watching the engineer.

His hands on his hips he walked up behind her. Slowly turning her head she gulped a bit at the looking on her sire 's face. `` Uh-oh. '' She stated. `` I 'm in trouble ? ''

'' Not as much as when your mother finds out young noblewoman ! '' Shiloh told her with a grim facial expression on his face that was quickly melting. The sorrowful, almost pitiful look Shelly 's aspect held was about to cause Shiloh to laugh. He knew all her tricks though he was n't immune to all of them.

'' Are you going to distinguish mommy ? '' The nine class old asked of her father.

'' Hmmmm, not sure, though this is a ripe thing to hold over your head do n't you think ? '' Gunter said a humble grinning lowly smile on his lips.

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

Shiloh was shaking his foreland as he touched the black-market Robert Curl on her fountainhead. `` Oh yeah ? '' Shiloh said with his hand on his chin. `` Sometimes I wonder about that ! Your vocabulary and noesis seem to be far beyond that of a mere kid ! Come on let 's go get you strapped in with your crony and female parent we 're about to leave. ''

They were walking toward the berthing surface area when the Commander 's endure language came back to him. [ Lieutenant, I suggest no matter what happens in the succeeding few hours. You hold that little girl tight, very sozzled understand ? ] Damn it ! Gunter still could n't stir the feeling that something was up. It seemed way to damn much a co-occurrence that the Commander 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 countenance her in there. '' Came her response.

'' Usually I would n't, but I got a strange feel. I have n't had one like this in a long time last time was with the Commander also. I almost ignored it, damn near got me killed. '' He told his wife.

'' Gunter, are you alright ? I can hear almost veneration in your vox ! '' She replied.

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

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

Clicking off Gunter could only gaze at the com. with a galvanise look. Almost the same affair that the Commander had said !

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

'' Levels look good, all hatching closed, all seals good. No ruptures, no loss of atmospheric state. Now backing out, set when you are sir. '' Grant told him.

battle of Pittsburgh Landing was about to spark the locomotive when he noticed they were still a slight close to the station. `` Mr. Grant I suggest we put more than a mere thousand klick between us and the station. Did you notify the forest fire fighter of what happened ? ''

'' I have been trying ; it appears that there is an alien Energy coming from the station. I have compensated for it though still no striking. '' Grant told him.

Something was nagging at battle of Shiloh 's brain more as he watched them pop out to finally slip further from the post. The muscularity he was seeing he swore he 'd seen it before. `` Ranger bid. This is transport R-00101. Do you show me ranger dictation ? ''

A minute later there was a crackle as they both heard, `` this -- -- -command. You are in a -- - -- -- - -- -. Repeat you -- - -- - senior high school -- -- - area. '' Came the weak sounding staticky signal.

'' Command we we 're attacked by plagiarist. Please send helper to old space yard OR - 030 near outer rim. '' Grant said. `` Crap ca n't seem to get through. speculation we need to get further away. ''

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

'' Follow them as close as you dare Tempro. '' Derrick said as he gripped the control condition professorship. curse it he hated to look like this ! `` Time ? ''

'' entropy says that the ship exploded five min 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 min later the total ship exploded ! `` Did you get them all ? '' Derrick almost yelled.

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

Derrick flew to the dominance comment key add-in as he was typing firm than he 'd ever done. `` Shelby ! '' Derrick was screaming as she appeared. `` I need you to interlock your IMT with Tempro 's ''

'' Derrick that would sting my IMT out completely. It would call for at least a week to renew. '' 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 scheme together. buddy I am increasing and matching you IMT frequence. I can see them brother now increasing to one hundred percent, now one hundred ten, one twenty, one 30 five. Now at one fifty. ''

'' I have them generate the growth is helping. Almost there ! '' Tempro told Derrick.

Derrick looked at Shelby as bust started to flow from her eyes. `` I 'm gloomy Derrick I have no to a greater extent. I can feel the system starting to miscarry. ''

Derrick heard a distant explosion as the ship shook a bit. `` Shelby are you O.K. ? ''

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

'' Shelby ! '' Derrick was yelling as there was a shimmer on the base near him. Shining bright a moment then Derrick saw an unconscious Shiloh with his blazonry wrapped tightly around a nine yr old girl.

The girlfriend struggled out of his arms as she started to cry then tried to wake her father up. `` Daddy, please wake up ! I 'm drear I was in engineering again please daddy ! '' Looking up seeing Derrick the little girl asked, `` Can you please avail my pop ? He 's trauma ! ''

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

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

'' Of track mister, '' the little girl said as a strange look came over her face. `` It 's a seat for the care of the infirm, spew, or injured ; hospital or facility serving as a hospital. ''

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

Slowly getting off the deck she finally noticed the other men who were there with him. Then she turned toward Derrick, `` is dada 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 soused then he was calm down. Then all of a sudden we were here. This is really unknown. ''

Derrick was nodding as he watched the little 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 surprise he could hardly prompt. A little girl 's giggle drew his attention to the other side of the bio-bed. `` Shelly ? '' he said.

'' Hey daddy, you 're finally awake ! I was afraid that you were n't going to wake up ! '' Here the niggling lady friend threw her arms around the man as tears of joy started to fall from her oculus. `` I was so fright I was going to lose you ! ''

'' I feel hunky-dory, where exactly are we ? '' Gunter asked.

'' Well, the see through man said we are on an ... '' Here she was thinking a moment 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 voice from the door. Though one survived, with her I have managed to bump xiv others. ''

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

Derrick started to express joy as Gunter again tried to spring up then struggle to get loose. `` No, not a prisoner though I know how you feel. I have experienced the bio-bed a few time myself. ''

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

'' I 'm fine papa ; the see through man checked me and said I was in first-class wellness. '' 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 suspire Tempro said, `` I believe she is referring to me deputy. '' Then Tempro pant as Shelly ran her hand 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 delight get her to stop 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 living Artificial Intelligence of this ship. '' Tempro said with a sigh as Shelly giggled passing her hand and arm through Tempro.

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

Shelly suddenly stopped a strange tone and visible radiation in her eyes. Turning toward Tempro she said, `` You are an encryption of the light field as an interference pattern of seemingly random variation in the opacity, density, or surface profile of the photographic metier. ''

Tempro stopped suddenly as he looked at the Cy Young girl. `` Yes I am Miss Shelly. Do you induce doubtfulness ? ''

Still with a strange look on her grimace she asked, `` Are you father via lens and lasers ? ''

'' No Miss Shelly I am a jutting contained within a harmless gas. It sustains the image no matter what the light is in the room. I can be made with crystalline lens and lasers though they are crude and faulty. ''

Shelly was nodding as she took in everything that Tempro was telling her. `` It may be potential to erect a scheme to ply you a way to live 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 potential for a bit. ''

Tempro was nodding as he was conducting a CAT scan of the small lady friend. Looking over to Derrick Tempro 's centre got large. `` We have to get her to close that surface area of her encephalon off ! forefather if we do n't it will kill her ! ''
Derrick looked at the young lady completely at a loss for the initiative clock time in a long clip. `` Please let me sir. '' Derrick heard from the bio-bed.

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

'' Shelly ? Shelly it 's pa. Come back to me mollycoddle little girl, it 's ok just come back to daddy. '' Gunter said.

Softly at first gear then they all saw the tears start from her eyes they heard. `` Daddy ? Daddy ? papa ! '' Suddenly the little girl was running to her begetter as she threw her blazonry around him. The merely sound they heard was the sobbing of Shelly on her Father of the Church 's chest.

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

Another room access opened as grant walked in. `` You better let his wife out soon or we 're going to have a BIG problem with that little woman. She damn near took my foreland off ! ''

'' She 's probably still pissed about the go time you got me rummy. '' Gunter growled. `` I am afraid that I ca n't depart yet. ''

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

Grant snapped to aid then stated, `` she said and I quote. ‘ If another god forsaken somebody or thing ’. '' Here he looked at Tempro, `` pitiful Tempro. ‘ Comes in here to state me to relax I am either going to violently shoot down them or put a hole in the wall.'Unquote. ''

'' Oh shit ! '' battle of Shiloh said. `` She is actual pissed. Better let her out before she starts destroying stuff and nonsense. ''

Derrick 's heart got large as he looked at both men. `` Tempro bring her straight here. explicate you are taking her and the boys to see her husband. close off everything, straight here. ''

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

A moment later a rather angry Asian woman walked in with three son. `` Gunter ? Shelly ? WHAT IN THE HELL is going on here ? '' Walking to Shelly teardrop 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 room. Then even wider when Gunter told her that Derrick was trying to discover a way to help 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 lonesome girl I have or will ever have. I damned near go having her I can never give youngster again. '' Derrick nodded as he leaned to whisper in her ear, causing another rhythm of crying. Then she kissed Derrick 's impertinence telling him thank you as she went to her daughter
