Chapter 3. “Gods”

After arriving at the space station, the Gods were distributed among the cabins. It was all done in style, like privileged persons. Getting on the second tier – in the residential complex – as if you get Into the center of Eternity Geya, where only the Creators lived and their protection, there was also a peace Council. Corridors with laminated walls of red oak, and with gold stucco in the corners and cornices. Unusual doors to the cabins were the color of the walls, opening to the side with his hands, turning a small round handle, at the level of the belt.

The walls of the cabin was gray. Furniture, walnut. A Bureau, covered with green cloth, stood against the wall with a large round window that was decorated with beautiful green bindweed (unfortunately Zef, he did was artificial). On the right side of cabins was a big soft bed, on which lay a white form. Such clothes were worn residents by Geya, people who have not reached adulthood. From clothing Junior that featured gold stripes and the absence of chevrons, or any insignia. Form was a rag, Zef Seth already had the experience to wear such cloth, as a prisoner of the Abyss – it was not an exosuit for the citizens and Ministers are Geya.

On the suit, lay two bracelets.

– Copper… – throat Zef pleasure even dry.

The bracelets were the color of pure copper – it was a favorite color got Set. Copper on Geya mined rare – in its purity, revealed harmful substances, and it is rapidly oxidized, turning into dust so it was coated with a special solution polishes and only used on bracelets of leaders of Defense, and was mined in the Abyss. Zef, the color of pure copper gold, resembled the glow of the sun. These bracelets were the purpose of his service.

Only the locks snap into place on hands, a bracelet merged with the skin, as if they disappeared.

– Everyone is asked to gather in the briefing room. – Said entered the room a soldier from the party of Defense. He was in a dark blue suit, but without a helmet. – Follow me.

The corridor was filled with people in white and dark blue mixed up. First squad veered off to the left around the corner, then coming in heavy double doors, they were in a straight corridor with many doors. Corridor ended with a transparent, automatic wide door, behind which was hiding a big, lit a lamp, room with lots of soft Seating with tables, as in the younger Society on written and oral exercises.

Defense planted the Gods in places in a semicircle in front of the wall – screen, Zef was offered a fourth table, almost in the center, opposite the office of the owner of the audience. The soldiers left the room, and it appeared Ger Afin, as if out of thin air – it was not visible because of the dark suit that blended in with the screen off, the Creator stood with his back to the audience. But when the screen was lit, green light in a small lattice, Ger Afin turned around. Above his head, as if in the air, reflected from the screen, the planet rotated in the cosmic dark, among the shining stars.

– Can anyone tell me what planet it is? – Loudly, as if with a smile, asked the Creator.

All felt catch in question, but venture to answer one: dark-skinned, short – haired – Aik Semis. Until recently, his shoulder was decorated with a sign of Technology, in the form of the structure of the atom, and now he is among the Gods – who would have thought?!

Aik raised his hand, after having received the nod of the Creator, stood up to reply, like a Junior at school:

– This is our greatest Geya World in the universe. – Aik was the last in a row of listeners. – And his Sputnik Vega.

Visitors to the briefing room were located through one “boy-girl”.

“That’s why he was not in Quarry. – Thought Zef. – Now you’re without a helmet.

– No. – Smiling, said Ger Afin. – This is a planet once called Earth. Yeah, it’s almost identical to Geya, the Creator waved his hand, as if scrolling through the hologram, by clicking on a particular continent and the section turn red within its borders. Although it was not necessary to touch the screen or the image at all – everything was controlled by a wave of thought, like any multimedia, technology,… in work, in your room, at home, in Society. But thus created a certain effect of presence, which is more disposed to himself, to communicate, rather than soulless presentation. – This is World on Geya – on Earth his was called Eurasia. Farms 1 and 2 – North and South America. Quarry – Africa. Abyss – Australia. Glaciers – Arctic and Antarctica.

All this you can learn, in the Society of the Gods, on Earth. For each provided a full version of the study of the relief of the planet and their names in the past and our time, on your screens in the residence. Earth, unlike Geya, had about two hundred fifty two countries – it’s like our single universe, multiplied by two hundred fifty two times, with different laws, division into races, cultures, Nations and religions, or confessions (the latter you studied in individual courses, as a Junior). All this led to civil strife and wars, which subsequently destroyed life on the planet when inert bombs were set in motion. People always sought to destroy itself – you have to fix these errors of the past, for the future of mankind. However, one way or another, I will help you in this – so to speak: I will give impetus to the creation of a new world of mankind.

World on Earth already exists for two thousand years. It began with the independent development of man (here I, of course, deceive – in many ways we, the Creators, helped people). They are different from you – the Geyalings – they are not born in the apparatus of recreation, receiving, at the same time, knowledge for the future party. People on Earth are born in the womb of a woman, having reproductive functions, to create the younger involved two (the younger they call children). Earthlings other in the relationship… – the green-eyed blonde, raised his hand. – Yes Alya Mut!

– That is, their life and development is similar to the animal world of reproduction, with preliminary intercourse?

Straight long hair, with a smile having dimples on the cheeks, of medium height – Zef Seth noticed her still on platz in front of the spaceship, her face seemed very innocent, but not childish. There was something in Alya Mut. Before Zef may notice her, she was a companion to Liya Yume, from the party Science, but for the love of it Liya, Zef anyone didn’t notice next. Maybe it’s the longing for Liya says in it now and therefore Alya attracted him now…

– Good question. – Ger Afin smiled today is a rare occasion when it was possible to see him like this. – If you have questions, ask them now – it is not known after what time we will contact you: a month, maybe two, but you do not despair, you can learn a lot from your robots, or in the instruction on multimedia. About people and animals: Yes, all people are reproductive, they mate, after, a woman, bears a child for nine months, at least six.

Any other questions? – The gods began to look at each other, then all turned their eyes on the Creator. – Good. Remember: this experiment was conceived by the Supreme Creator Dao Yang, the head of the Science party, the Creator Tanya Mor and, of course, me.

– Who’s the head of the defense party now? – Dark skin, lush long hair, brown eyes and a slender figure of a brunette – she (who asked the question) looked quite beautiful, in a white robe with a Golden stripes.

– Kata Rice, you no longer belong to parties on Geya – you are now all Gods. I still will continue to manage the Defense. In my absence, I will be replaced by the Supreme Creator Dao Yang.

Now let’s move on to the most sensitive point: you have to create the cells of Society. First couple: Zef Seth and Alya Mut. Alya smiled Zef, but he remained stone-faced, as if not noticing it. – Next couple: Olik Baidas and Vicki Mon. Next: noin the ocean and Kata rice. And in conclusion: Aik Semis and Osia Ayamo. The decision of the Creators is not subject to discussion – on Geya, and on the Earth.

The light in the corners of the room blinked twice blue lights.

– We need to wrap this up, you wait in the dining room. You must get used to the other food. Finally: all of you have been given bracelets, do not remove them if you are outside of Society – it is your weapon, personal armor, exosuit and personal physician, as well as the chip – the internal chip out of you have been extracted. Those who do not know how to use them, you can contact Zef Seth or Katya Rice. The defense party has been using them since Junior. Each bracelet is individually suited to its owner, recognizing his DNA. You can’t use a bracelet that doesn’t belong to you – it won’t help you.

White dining room was half-filled with servants OSS (orbital space station). They sat at long tables on 8—12 people, robots – food carriers rode nearby. The gods sat at the table extreme, but Zef departed from them, crouched behind the opposite. He was joined by Alya.

– What with the servants to sit lower self-esteem?! – Evil joked swarthy, with straight nose, strong blue-eyed brunette. He, like the Aik Semis prior to shipment, was a Technician. A gorgeous blonde, not tall, slender, as if with two sapphires instead of eyes, echoed her husband:

– Why should he it’s – our leader easier into the Abyss. – Vicki Mon and Olic Baidas was satisfied.

Robots brought the standard set of food: salads, boiled meat, and juice.

– Of course – Zef’s fists clenched so that the knuckles turned white – in the Abyss what is missing is you – Farm and Equipment – you’re just made for each other. Shershems would have liked you – they would bone licking your bones.

Aik jumped off his chair, but the Kata stopped him:

– What take with him – a traitor never will become one of us.

– I don’t think you should say that. – Interrupted offensive argument is one of Defense. White man in his fifties with short brown hair, of medium height and sparse gray-green eyes. He came to the table of the leader of the Gods and said so that it was heard at the next table:

– My name is captain Tuck Yao. You did everything you could for the benefit of the World Geya and I know it.

– You… – finished Zef, as he was interrupted by a Tuck:

– Yeah. For any of us, you’re a hero. You are the one who deserves respect and be a real example to everyone in the World.

The lights in the dining room blinked due to the shaking of the OSS. The robots fell to the floor, the food rolled on the tables. Began to panic.

– Please remain calm. All officers and the leader of the Gods, assemble in briefing rooms. – The voice Ger Afin’s sounded in the speakers mounted in the walls. – Everyone else to their stations. The gods go to their cabins, put on costumes and bracelets, after to gather on the first floor in the fourth box. Repeat…

– See you at box. – Said Zef Seth Alya’s and exchanged glances with Tuck, came out of the dining room.

The officers were puzzled. They came out of the briefing room for two, three, people. In of it remained two: Creator of Ger Afin and the leader of the Gods Zef Seth.

– You understand, my boy, what about it is not must know among the Gods. – Said Creator. – I’ll let them know in a while. You have now so, how me known, tense relations, and this would undermine their faith in me, and in Geya’s. You know what I mean?

– Yes, the Supreme Creator, I’m sorry… the Creator.

– Well, that’s good. Now go to the cabin, in ten minutes you should be in the fourth box.

The portholes, not only in the cabins, but all the way up to the lower floor, were closed. Eight people in gold uniforms gathered at the fourth box. Until recently, they arrived at the OSS through the next gate, now they had another way.

Ger Afin did not utter enthusiastic words, he said: “see you soon” – and the Gods entered the open spacious box. The gate closed, and the little Windows of the fourth box shone with a bright white light.

– Safe journey! – Said Ger Afin nowhere.

Chapter 4. " ASS Of Russia (Air And Space Forces Of Russia)”

– Counting down. – The helmet came the voice of Colonel Semyon Ivanovich Pavlov. – Ten, nine, eight – on voice was heard, that Pavlov worried. He stood on the bridge, looking at the huge screen on the wall of the secret bunker of the Russian aerospace forces. The screen showed a different world through the eyes absolutely identical androids, with the exception of the bands on the shoulders of military uniforms. – …Seven, six, five… – Blinds security Windows spaceship have ascended upward, forming a single broad bar. Previously, they served as protection from the space dump that humanity has arranged here in less than a century. The bright light of the sun blinded the screen, showing the most amazing picture of the Morning star that the human eye had ever seen. – …Four, three… – Engines buzzing like air pumps, blasting the vacuum with hydrogen. – …Two, one, START! Space the machine is moved along the arc, entering the atmosphere of Venus.

First, the spaceship covered the blue, with rare green tongues, flame, after he seemed to plunge into the ocean. The liquid the thickness of a kilometer did hide a planet rich in oxygen.

– This is major German Afonin. – Said android with white stripe. – We’ve entered the planet’s atmosphere. Dense sulfuric acid shell passed. Reflectors simulate glass removed. Judging by the sensors – the monitor in the center of the control panel showed something similar to the algorithms – the shell serves as a protective layer, that is, the shield of the planet from external influences, both physical and natural. For example: cools the layers of air from heating, when exposed to sunlight. We begin to reduce the angle of reflection of forty-seven degrees, the initial speed of ten thousand kilometers per second. Proceed to reset the beacons.

The white hand of the robot moved the cover somewhere in the corner of the panel. Finger pressed the yellow button under the cover. In the cabin he heard the signal three times blinked blue and all was quiet, leaving only the noise ripped the air behind.

– Forward! – Face hided tension. Pavlov smiled, to check the operation of the machine, at such remote distances from the Earth, business remained for the latter: to land and start again, and then come home. For the first, you can not worry – the spaceship will do everything on its own – over the latter will have to work majors with white stripe and with blue stripe on his shoulders that ran the machine. – Everything is fine guys: behind the Shuttle temperature and oxygen stats are normal. The atmosphere is viable.

– Well, well. – Droning Romanov, sitting in a corner with a Rubik’s cube, he continually mixed all colors, and then, within a minute collected it. It seemed that Petya did not pay attention, not to the cube, not to the screen, as if he was not here at all, but he saw everything. – I had to fly – this is my project, and I had to get there first.

– Peter Stepanovich, – said the Colonel, not taking his eyes off the screens. On the bridge anymore who were not, four binding operators sat at computers at the bottom, right under the bridge. – I understand everything, but it is one thing to be “left-handed”, another prepared fighter. No one knows what to expect from the project “Morning Star”. Thanks for the car – it has not failed – Russia will not forget you, but about the flight: it’s not up to you. Remember: I manage the project and you are here only because of me. Of course, you would like to be alone, but this will not happen.

The screen twitched and wheezed – the connection was lost.

– Herman Alekseevich, Daniel Karlovich – can you hear me? – Pavlov got nervous. – Will someone tell me – what’s going on?

Through hissing broke the voice of major Daniel Karlovich Mor :

– We hear you well, we feel great. Back to the set point. Begin vertical descent.

– Turn on the beacon and display them on the screen! – Said Pavlov in a microphone on the table. After turned to the androids in the micro-adapter on the right ear:

– We’ve lost visual contact with you, but we’ll try to find you now. – A planet with its reliefs appeared on the screen. – No wonder it is called Sister of the Earth’s.

– What’s up? – The voice of the Android with a white stripe.

– Planet similar to Earth, to decay it on the mainland, as on ancient maps. – Explained Pavlov. In the center of the mainland, in the middle of the highlands lit up a red light. There was a double picture, each part of it was decorated with the initials of the androids. – You’re back.

Green virgin terrain among the mountains and rivers, opened before the eyes of those present in the bunker. She was getting closer, getting brighter, more beautiful.

The car stopped. The door hissed up. Shutters-blinds fell on the Windows.

The sun, making its way through the thickness of sulfuric acid, blurred bright heavenly light. Clouds are clearly drawn in the heavenly silence golden mist. Here the time was approaching evening.

In containers were placed samples: of soil, grass, trees, rocks, water… part of the cooling compartments of the first section was filled. The Rovers were launched.

The androids stepped into the machine, but the technique failed, unable to even close the door, the panel was turned on, the buttons were shining with lights, and the car still didn’t work, not responding to the commands of the pilots.

– What you got? – The Colonel’s angry voice could be heard.

– Not clear. – Herman Replied. – The spaceship is not responding to our commands. What we do? It is necessary to move to the next point, but without a car we do not have time, and here it is not necessary to leave. Who knows what can live on this planet?!

– Find out. – Pavlov joked, but the joke was taken seriously:

– Perfectly. I’m moving.

– What about Daniel Karlovich, will you leave him alone? – In the Colonel’s voice was heard sarcastic notes.

– I’ll handle it. If that – ‘ll call. Major Moore replied.

– That’s good – happy Herman – I’ll be around – in the boundaries of the square.

People from the bunker ASS Russia, watched the beautiful views of nature of the mountains of Venus. So an hour passed, two, but any evidence of life to be seen.

– In this country someday will all well work. – Shouted the Colonel into the microphone, looking at a gray screen android Herman. The link again has interrupted. – At least just to work! – He turned to Romanov, the same didn’t pay on the Colonel any attention, collected the cube. – You can explain to me: why again the connection is terminated?

– Most likely, this layer of acid that protects the planet has an electromagnetic substance – it interrupts the transmission process, as a passing wave, which fails to the least stable, to her, a member of the crew. This time it was Afonin.

– What about the car?

– Same waves. It will take a little time, and it will work. You’ll see. You wouldn’t be nervous – take a Rubik’s cube, or crosswords, and relax. Only I you, its not will give.

– Why are you all such geniuses… – Pavlov wanted to swear but stopped in time – he remembered that he was told about the behavior of autistic and sociopaths.

On the screen of major Afonin, a picture appeared.

– Herman Alekseevich you can hear me? – The Colonel couldn’t understand what was happening. – Major Afonin can you hear me?

– No feedback. – Said Romanov.

– I can see that without you. Major Afonin, can you hear me?

Herman looked out from behind the stone, among the rocks and rivers of boiling lava. There, below, gray horned people in loincloths, pulled on ropes, behind itself a system from women and children similar to earthlings, than on these horned inhabitants of Venus.

– You see this? See? He whispered into the microphone. – I’m going to zoom in. That’s impossible. – High, edifice brown girl hair with blue eyes eyes, turned to Herman, if seeing his. – Is It Taya? – Surprise, Herman rose to his feet, and again the connection was lost.

– Who’s Taya? – The Colonel asked Daniil Karlovich.

– Why are you asking me?

– Afonin saw a red-haired girl and said: Taya. After the connection is terminated. If he was not an android, I would have thought that the major was cut down from behind – of head.

– Where saw – I do not not understand. He called his wife Taya, but she died four years ago – Taisia Nikolaevna Smirnova. Where’s Herman?

– We don’t know yet. His sensor went crazy-he jumps all over the planet. You need to find Afonin’s: he came to the link from places more like hell – around the rocks and rivers of fire, in the rocks a lot of caves. From the place where he came out, overlooking the plateau with a large stone horned skull, in the center of it.

– Is this a joke?

– We’re not an organization where you can joke like that. Our operators will launch drones to repair the machine. We will control them from The earth. With God major – you’ll need It.

In the booth, on the bridge, climbed the blonde middle age. Her hands were trembling, as was her voice – she was frightened:

– May I address you, Colonel?

– Captain, please!

– We’ve got an emergency – room simulations Afonin’s in motion.
