Derrick looked at the readings, pausing only a second, he pressed the start button, at first it wasn’t too bad. Suddenly it was like the full opening of a huge set of flood gates. Derrick opened his mouth to scream but nothing came out, reaching up he tried to pull the head set off, no dice it only increased the feeling that his head was going to split open. Oh shit Derrick thought when he felt the blood begin to seep from his nose, you’ve really done it this time you’re dead. “Derrick,” Shelby said a moment later, “I am reading dangerous levels of serotonin and adrenaline increasing exponentially.” The hologram of Shelby appeared next to the jerking, shaking and bleeding form of Derrick. “DERRICK!” Shelby immediately cut into the program that was pouring through …

{Queen Triada?} Came the elders’ thoughts. {We had heard that you and your world had fallen.} {That was a falsehood. As you can tell I and my world are quite well. Thanks to Sam our triad is also whole again, Sam has already freed two of your corner worlds. I am hoping he can yours also.} Triada thought. {We will do all we can to help achieve this Queen Triada.} The elder replied. Sam sat nearby to see if they were going to need him anymore. {Thantas? Are you going to strengthen them now? Do they have enough strength to go through the process again?} Sam Asked. {For now I feel that they do. Remember I stated that I couldn’t go as fast as I wish I could. That was the reason I started to …

Derrick was sitting alone in his command chair, even solid Mary hadn’t attempted to move closer. After seeing the starving people, the rags for clothes, many people on the verge of collapse, Derrick had virtually lost it. He’d been deadly serious about leveling the palace the Duke was living in. Derrick hadn’t really cared whether or not the man was still there or not. Taking several deep breaths he again tried to calm himself. Shelby had taken the brunt of his exploding anger, going quiet after the first tirade out of his mouth. Silently she again tried to help Derrick, for the third time was met with an angry grunt then being ignored. Shelby felt frustrated that there wasn’t more that she could do to help him. “Shelby,” came the voice of Hartwell. “Is all …

True he’d probably accomplished far more in that one day than any other but hell! When he’d sighed at the mountain of papers that Mary said he needed to sign he thought that it would move things a lot. After twenty-four hours he’d asked how long and Mary had responded only a week! True they had only ninety years left now but Derrick felt as if he’d never catch up. Shaking his …

Derrick was still in shock, what in the hell was going on? Reaching out again Derrick touched Mary’s arm, again snatching his hand back. Sitting there a minute Derrick’s face showed his confusion then a wide smile lit up his face. “Shelby, has anyone had access to access to my brain amplifier?” Derrick asked expecting her to tell him that someone had. “No Derrick all data on it is still in secure files within my mainframe, I haven’t detected any incursion into any of those.” Shelby reported a few moments later to an astonished Derrick. Derrick nodded thinking a moment, “Alright how did they do it? They’re smart, a hell of a lot smarter than I was. I also know for a fact that neither had ever had access to technology this advanced. I need …

Derrick was about to go nuts, for several days he’d been restricted to the bio-bed. Now that it had released him, Shelby was always near him watching him like a hawk. Damn! He couldn’t even go to the bathroom without her being there watching every move that he made. Even though she wasn’t actually alive as a corporeal being, she was still alive and Derrick was still embarrassed. Trying his best to hide his embarrassment, it still didn’t go unnoticed by Shelby. In all actuality, she found it rather cute. Rubbing his leg Derrick thought about everything that had happened this week, with any luck from now on, with things moving forward, his and the ships luck would change. Laughing a moment Derrick could only shake his head yeah right! Since when had luck ever …

Cold, it was deadly cold, shivering the man tried to move but found that almost every bone in his body was broken or fractured. Reaching in he began to use his training to deaden almost all the pain, then began to painstakingly drag his body to the escape capsule. A small smile briefly crossed his lips, that bastard was going to pay dearly for what he’d done. It might not be all that soon but he would pay that was for sure. Finally in the capsule he looked back at the destruction, they were all dead, the ship was lost and would be forever as would he, if he didn’t evacuate. The capsule detached still moving with the ship, barely able to reach out the man flipped several switches as the ship flashed away then …

Derrick kept watch over Kimison as Mary started his treatment. Derrick knew all too well what was needed to break the hold that all the fear and pain held on him. She was barely into the start of the procedure when Derrick felt him tense up; looking up a moment later she motioned me close. “I am afraid that I have need of your help sire his mind is as strong as yours it will require two energies to break the hold of the paranoia that has a hold on him.” I nodded as I moved closer, “Lie down over there Sire, remember while you are inside that nothing is real and can hurt you. The images you see are just that and only the memories of his mind.” “I will do my best Mary,” …
