I walked out of the cell and over to the base control center. I put my head in and spoke directly to the Commandant. “The prisoner is dead,” I told him. “Cremate the body, and throw the ashes into the sea. Expunge his records from your system. He has never been here, understood?”568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpM6CqT81ID

It was getting dark outside; I hate flying over the open ocean at night, even with Navcom. “Since it is too late to fly back to Hilo this evening, have my plane refuelled and ready for departure tomorrow morning at first light.” With that I went to bed and slept soundly. Ernie handed me a glass of my favourite bourbon. “So how do we prevent this in the future?” 568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv1HBABmeH

“You mean how do we prevent our people from acting like normal human beings? Good question. My gut feeling says we don’t. My recommendation to Administrator Martins was that once we appoint people to positions like DAC, we keep them close within our sphere of influence. We don’t let them go out and see the world with its doomed people. We keep them under tighter control.”568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Tp4sh3lGX

I already knew that answer. “They will do it because they know what is at stake. They will do it because they are too frightened not to do it. Doctor Limned’s only real crime was that he was a decent human being living in a world where most decent human beings are going to be dead soon. Only the Machiavellian bastards like you and me are going to live through this. That doesn’t give much hope for the future, to have a world full of people like us, does it?”568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM26xoFJmG

“Doesn’t really matter,” Ernie said swilling his scotch.568Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9Qqwb0oYq

“Not in the least,” I told him. I still shuddered at the thought.

“Jess... Jess... Wake up!” My mother screamed to me. “ We looked over a confidential file that we found in a secret safe hidden by Doctor Limned and you might not like this however I have got a case for you dear and you shall be very, very interested in this and some may describe it as a blast from the past...”
