OUTCAST 56
Galaxy Sec Colonel Jake Smith, youthful and glamorous, was waiting in a large leather chair in an Italian restaurant in a small alcove for two behind a curtain. A motley shirt with an open collar, black hair slicked with gel, a face moderately exhausted by vices and subordination, smiled affably at the entrance of Hoth. He waved his hand in a broad gesture, catching Hoth's hand and shaking it firmly. It was a strange mixture of hacker, rock 'n' roll and thug, with a strong sense of authority. Smith talked throughout the meeting, smiling all the time and waving his arms wide:- Well done, Reggie, for coming to us with this case. I discussed with older boys - a good topic, five points. We agree with your conditions and we have nothing against the market with cops and bandits on the ground. But there is, in short, a moment that you do not know about.The colonel meaningfully drank the juice from the glass and continued:- In the next six months there will be very serious shifts at the ve

It seems that people do it faster. Berta, like an experienced middle-aged female who had bred many times, understood everything right away, stood back to me and even wrapped her tail. I, or rather Lazio, deftly squeezed her torso with my front paws, jumped up, hung over her and started. The whole district wanted puppies from the dog Grog to their house. For them, it was something like a new step on the informal social ladder, so Lazio had no problems "with this case" in principle. Brides were brought in regularly, moreover, selected, thoroughbred, ready for anything.I abstracted as much as possible from what was happening, so as not to disturb my friend with “advice” or inappropriate emotions. Still, it's unusual. No matter where it goes, it often looks much uglier to people. And we were just handsome, long, flexible, like two black shadows. True, it seemed to me that the frictions were too frequent and somehow awkward. And, of course, the smell. When I was behind and on top, I sniff

Maat looked at Johnson Wallace, sprawled on a mattress on the floor of the headquarters tent. The windowless tent was lit only by the screen of a small laptop on an iron stool. On another stool, in the same pile, lay a spotted mabuta with general stars on shoulder straps, an army dark green T-shirt, and her, Maat, a gray tracksuit, under the stool, stood next to her pink sneakers and his heavy berets. His swimming trunks and socks were crumpled on the canvas floor, her beige bra, black panties, white stockings.Maat looked at the 50-year-old warrior and saw the boy who lived in her yard as a child. Cocky, gambling, curious, reckless. A doppelgänger, a hooligan, a moron. He lay on his stomach, and Maat looked at the powerful muscles of the back, strong buttocks, the knotted muscles of strong legs accustomed to running and walking. The tanned, hairless body resembled a strong animal and a Roman statue of a god at the same time. The sensitive predator felt her gaze and turned over, showi

Many magicians have long suggested holding informal meetings, and even more so, such important tips via videoconference or chat at all - reliably, simply and inexpensively. But most demanded the observance of ancient traditions. Therefore, the three sorcerers on duty were forced to get confused with the preparation of the location for the extraordinary Council of Magicians of the First Circle. They grumbled and frowned, but got tired and did everything as required by the ancient order. They pulled out a piece of space - a desert area on one of the planets, no matter which one. Brought this area into a parallel time stream. In this mode, even if someone sees or hears them there, all the same, this information will remain in a different time and will not appear in the witness himself in his “conscious” life. Nevertheless, a piece of the desert was also additionally cordoned off by energy fields, covered with a jammer and a system for dissipating any electromagnetic waves. To the heap ab

For almost a day, all the media in every galaxy broadcast a video of the sexual adventures of Lawrence Donnach, co-chairman of the Judicial Intergalactic Commission. From time to time they stopped the frame in order to zoom in to show the incoming strap-on, to demonstrate the politician's face disfigured by orgasm, the cheerful laughter of two girls - Tanya and Natasha in high leather boots with shiny long heels. Bright brunette and blonde, blushing and shouting, flashing in the frame with their juicy asses, drove their devices - one, clasping his head, into his mouth, the other from behind.The groans, laughter and phrases from this vidos instantly became ringtones and went to music in bloggers' videos. And the monitors, flickering and making noise with screensavers, continued to show how Tanya breaks Donnach, distraught with lust, trampling his back with his knee, a respected name, a political future, and to a heap, all moral principles, the authority of the Court and all intergalac

The northern Carthians concentrated a whole brigade and all their artillery and helicopters on a mere 5 kilometers of front, bringing down this power on one single pass and two mountain slopes. In the morning, at first light, literally all types of weapons available to the attackers hit these two ill-fated mountains. It seemed that they would raze these mountains to the ground. The roar had been standing for several hours, the gorge, which was the gateway to the mountain range, was drowned in dust, smoke and incessant flashes from explosions of bombs, mines, and shells. The brigade stood, as in the Middle Ages, in close formation, accumulated in a solid mass of iron on a small patch and rumbled, puffed with fire. Anti-aircraft guns were drilled into impenetrable smoke, as if pants were being torn, machine guns chirped. The tanks stood in rows, shrouded in clouds of dust, loudly gasped with quick frequent volleys, the infantry flooded all the thickets of bushes and low forest plantatio

Powell did not have his own deputy for security, but informally these duties were performed by Daniel Fogg. He was incredibly pleased, now sitting in front of the boss and reporting that he had dug up something about Volos, Lilith and their friends. In one of the conversations with Powell, they mentioned that they participated in some kind of archaeological excavations and called their professor, the head of the expedition, Fish, and the teachers Hare and Squirrel. Fogg unearthed that a professor with that nickname worked on the 4th planet In the Swans, and there all the teachers had urges from the natural world. And, indeed, students worked there and dug the dead city.Powell smiled, he knew this Fish, more precisely, Professor Belorybin from a young age, this is one of his students and, in a sense, followers. He left medicine for excavations. I found him on Skype and called:- Great, Ryba, have you had such people in the excavations in the last five years? “Powell tossed him picture

President Trom not only agreed with the idea of camps for migrants in a cross-border zone under the auspices of intergalactic commissions, but also stated that he was ready to consider Bounty's specific proposals on the rights of LGBTQ people. The liberals, having lost their humanistic trumps, reduced the intensity of criticism of the current administration of the SGC, withdrew the impeachment and the shutdown. The protest rallies dispersed, no big blood was shed, Trom took the troops to the barracks, and the cops, having removed their shields and helmets, returned to patrolling the streets.The media rejoiced, praising the Bounty in every way - the expressions “Bounty Camps”, “Bounty Merciful” and “Bounty is the savior of migrants” were used. By itself, there was a general opinion that it was he who should now head the Judicial Intergalactic Commission instead of Donnach. There were no objections from anyone. Bounty soon appeared on the air from his 3rd D Cepheus, where from the of

Epilogue
We were again alone on the same sidewalk of a narrow street in a seaside town. Indistinct music was heard from the cafes along the coast, and there was a wall of cypresses and tall yellow grass all around. We ended up at that point and second at which we parted many, many lives ago, in that August, when the local sea is the hottest, and the nights are warm, like fresh milk, and the smell of flowers is dense, like a wall.It was us, but not us. She had visibly matured, it was no longer the same young girl with electric sparks in her black eyes. Wrinkles, bitterness and memories of many years and destinies were written on her face. I, too, felt like an old doll taken out of the closet, faded and dusty.- I love you, I've been looking for you all these years, I could not calm down, I've been looking for you century after century - in all galaxies. I can't live without you, I traded everything for this moment to bring you back. I can't be happy without you, let me come back to you.I spok

“The diamond coffin that Seth lured Osiris into was cheaper than this box,” Daniel Fogg touched the luminous blue case of the medical capsule and freezer in one bottle with his finger.- Do you feel sorry for the money? Powell asked, solemn as before a prayer, in a strict black suit, with a neatly trimmed gray beard, standing at the control panel of this wonderful machine, a unique apparatus, his brainchild.- Too big risks. It has never been tested on humans, and immediately on such a patient. And the donor is doubtful.- She was checked from all sides, she fits exactly.- I'm not talking about medical indications. Psychologically, you may not be ready. The fact that she went through an initiation through Death does not mean that she will go through Love as well. Without verification, it is dangerous to immediately put into action.- Wagner passed, and they are from the same test.- OK let's see. Such stakes, and it all depends on one girl.- She loves him. Here, she’s already coming

Turntables, ripping up the blue summer sky with smoky jets of NURSs, plowed a section of the track in an open area near the edge. Having gained a little height, they went to the circle, so that in a minute they would return and hit again. Ratmir with officers and guards in three jeeps noticed two black circles approaching from behind the clouds in time, turned off the asphalt into the forest, hiding under the crowns of trees. This saved them from the first blow. But the pilots of the Antean pair of fire support helicopters had already seen these three machines and bit the bit, imbued with hunting excitement. Their rumble over the forest began to grow again, now they will beat at random, covering the green sea under them, they will feel below with thermal imagers and metal detectors, look out with their eyes, reflections of the painted sides of the car or, maybe, dust from under the wheels. Abandoning the cars, the Ramirs scattered and a loose flock of saigas ran deep into the thicket,

He sat smiling in his chair, looking around the cleanly tidied white with a matte tint interior of his ship, silvery walls, plasma with elegant Polina (he came up with a new outfit for her, having downloaded it from a fashion site). She said with her pleasant timbre that the flight was proceeding normally, five more days to the destination. For two weeks of the flight, I was in high spirits. It turned out that in such a state it was even more difficult to endure the flight and forced inaction in a confined space without communication with the outside world than if you were flying in melancholy and sadness.Sanya played chess as best he could, but this, of course, could not distract from worries about a future trip through time and, possibly, a meeting with Chernaya. Changing musical tracks, I turned in my hands a carved medieval golden key on a leather cord, looked at cast patterns on it and intricate hieroglyphs. I remembered day after day, evening after evening, moment after moment,

Volos and Lilith rarely slept together that month. Although we finally managed to rent a normal, or rather, luxurious apartment in the City of Manowaha, everyone had too much work, traveling, and very rarely crossed paths for an hour or two. Today they decided to give themselves a holiday, postponing this Saturday evening all business until Monday morning, warning everyone they can not to be pulled even in the event of the Third Coming.They dined on a balcony overlooking the huge diamond of Manowach sparkling with fire, the black night sky, the leaden ocean behind the purple colors of the embankments, the moths of airplanes in the sky and ships in the ocean, enjoying the comfort of a home furnished in the latest fashion. Lilith was in seventh heaven from everything that happened to her during this month. After a poor childhood and student life, after space flights on cheap transport vehicles, after tents in Choban, medical wards in Alam and the stone jungle of Oralon... She found her

Maat was flying in a glass-case-like mini-metro that connected the Bahdi spaceport to the Belau lake and oasis, located in an uncontaminated area. A hundred kilometers, sparkling like a bunch of candies in gold pieces, the train rushed by in 40 minutes, allowing soldiers, officers and civilian personnel of the base of intergalactic peacekeepers to leave the garrison in the evening or on weekends and relax near the water in the shade of palm trees, without protective equipment. Three new hotel buildings, restaurants, sports and massage parlors - everything was built to the glory, as in the best resorts in the universe.In the month and a half that the military settled here, the Bahdi Cosmodrome turned into a considerable city. About 100,000 inhabitants of Parta came here after finding work or humanitarian aid. For them, several neighborhoods of temporary housing were also rapidly erected. And these were not dull rows of tents and wagons to the horizon. Everything that Wallos and his fe

- Where are you stuck? - severely met my appearance from behind a closet in the old Wolverine hotel, she got bored, sitting on a shabby sofa, watching TV news about the death of the Bounty.- Dropped by Wagner, he had an exam.- Passed? Masa asked quietly, becoming more serious.- Passed. Satisfied?- Of course. I believed in him. The Love Exam is difficult, for example, you are not ready for it. Bounty, over there, was not ready either. This chocolate loved only himself. From people he needed only their boundless love for him and admiration. He does not care that for this, he had to turn people into cattle. Don't laugh - I love people. For real. I do what they will hate me for, what they will kick me out and curse me for, everything that people need to be people and grow.What makes you think they need it? There is an easy way to find out. What people are willing to pay for is what they really need. Everything that is not in demand is just a wishlist. Your games of freedom are not in

Gilats looked at Thomson, and saw Wagner hanging in a noose in the bathroom, his tongue hanging out, his face blue and his eyes bulging. He recalled how they sent him a video, how they removed the guy from the rope, put him on the bed in the hotel, saying that there were no signs of violence. Sources gave him the info, how it really happened. And Gilats, looking at the powerful hands of the general, imagined how this strong man in an expensive suit dragged the frail body of the boy along the floor, as he held it, while his fighters put on a rope.Now, looking into the square face of the CEO of Galaxy Sec, the co-chairman of the State Construction Commission with an effort made an indifferent and even benevolent look:- At least you know what kind of hematogen Powell is preparing there instead of Bounty?- He calls his project "Twix". I only know software. He wants to combine fiery software shells with what is left of the New Testament and cover from above with a united circuit with co

A month after the nuclear war on the Great Continent, the situation began to more or less clear up. In Bormunt, a small town on the left bank of the Ramira, which became the capital of the self-proclaimed Anarchist Republic, covering all the uninfected territories of eastern Lavender, from the Gray Mountains in the west to the Swamps in the east, from the river in the north to the sands in the south, in total - a square of 500x500 km. , the Council of Commanders gathered to discuss the situation and plans.The Republic was governed by direct Internet democracy - all residents (indigenous and refugees), about a million people, had their own profile in the Republican Network and the right to vote on any issue of governing the country, without representatives. The code of laws was adopted by such a general vote for five years, without the possibility of change during this period. The Network Moderator, civilian ministers and territorial leaders were elected for a year without the possibi
