Jim reached over and rolled down the window on the passenger-side door as he made his way slowly through the cornfield. The ultra-high-tech 980-cc three-cylinder engine made almost no noise as he drove, and the sound of the buzzing insects in the cornfield was the only thing he could hear. He crept along for a couple of minutes at barely 10 mph, and then began to feel very foolish. "This has to be a joke. Why am I doing this?" He thought about backing up, but up ahead was a sign, and he decided to see if there was a cross-road that might be a little bit wider to get him out of the cornfield.

He got to the sign and paused. It was the same simple construction as before, with the words "ANTELOPE FREEWAY - ONE HALF MILE" written in block letters. An arrow pointed straight ahead, as if it were necessary to show direction, but there was nowhere else to go. "Wait a minute!" he thought. "That's not true! I can just back out of here! Why the hell am I doing this?!"

Jim paused and stopped the car for a moment to consider. He was convinced the signs were some elaborate joke, but somehow that didn't square with his impressions of the old man. The man seemed both serious and caring, and Jim couldn't imagine the guy would be wasting his time sending him into an ordinary cornfield. Logic was telling him to back out, and curiosity was pulling him forward.

Eventually his curiosity and playful nature won out. Another half mile to see what the joke was wouldn't be a problem, especially when he had come this far. He had a full tank of gas and plenty of time before he was due at Cal Tech. Feeling a call for adventure, Jim decided to press on.

After another minute of driving, the next sign became visible up ahead on the road. Jim was not surprised at all to read, "ANTELOPE FREEWAY - ONE QUARTER MILE". He squinted into the bright daylight and could just see another sign further along. In less than a minute, he was staring at "ANTELOPE FREEWAY - ONE EIGHTH MILE", with the arrow still pointing straight up. "Damn! This joke had better be worth it," he thought. Jim continued to follow the road as it started to bend into a curve.

Jim had barely driven a hundred yards when he saw the next sign. "ANTELOPE FREEWAY - ONE SIXTEENTH MILE" with the ubiquitous up-arrow. "Well," he thought, "I think they've got the distances measured correctly, I'll give them that. Ha! This corn is so unbelievably dense. I can't wait to see what's at the end of all this! Maybe a giant chicken or something..."

All thought of turning back dissolved when he read the next sign, "ANTELOPE FREEWAY - ONE THIRTY-SECOND MILE". Laughing out load at how ridiculous this all was and thinking he only had another 165 feet left to go, he continued to follow the curve of the tiny grass road.

Four signs later, Jim stared thunderstruck at the road before him. The last sign was by the side of his car, "ANTELOPE FREEWAY - ONE FIVE-HUNDRED-TWELFTH MILE". Jim turned off his car and walked in astonishment along the last ten feet of the grass path. There was a buzz of insects around him and the air smelled of rich earth, but it all went totally unnoticed. Just ahead of his car the grass road and the cornfield ended, and there before him was a pristine entrance ramp beyond Interstate size and quality.

The asphalt looked as smooth as glass, and it led down to a spacious freeway with absolutely no traffic on it. The freeway was at ground level, with two wide lanes and a breakdown lane in each direction. There was a grass median a hundred feet wide separating the eastbound and westbound lanes, and an additional buffer of grass and wildflowers separating the shoulders of the freeway from the sound barriers.

The sound barriers were remarkable. They looked like super-smooth concrete, just over twelve feet in height and the color of light sandstone. Jim thought the barriers didn't look high at all, but their cost must still have been monumental. Jim couldn't imagine why the State of Nebraska would go through all the trouble of shielding the corn from the road noise. But the road was there, and with its ridiculous barriers was pointing due west. Still shaking his head in disbelief, Jim got back in his car and entered the freeway. He glanced at his watch. The time was 10:20 AM.

One of the first things Jim noticed was how monotonous the road was, super high quality but straight as an arrow with absolutely no variation. Once he set the cruise control to 55 mph, there was very little to do except steer straight. Thinking that he'd have to be extra careful not to drift off to sleep, Jim yawned and tried turning on the radio but there nothing but a soft hiss. The car's ride was so incredibly quiet; the hiss was the loudest sound around.

After a few minutes of fiddling with the radio and enjoying the fragrances of the wildflowers through the open windows, he gave up and yawned again as he popped a CD into the car's player. Jim liked Jazz a lot and thought the lively music would keep him alert.

But he didn't count on the heat of the day. The hot air was making him feel drowsy, and the perfume of the wildflowers seemed to make his mind want to drift. Jim shook his head and tried to clear it. He tried to focus his thoughts on the amazing freeway he was on...

"Incredibly smooth ride, it's like riding on glass... The proportions are huge. And the flowers smell so nice. These lanes must be fifteen feet wide each! So oversized, so easy to stay in the lane. Let's see... Gee these flowers smell nice... Call it forty-five feet for the two lanes and the breakdown lane, another fifty-five feet to the sound barriers... Look at all the wildflowers... So pretty... Huh? What? The barriers are not really high at all, twelve feet maybe? Maybe a bit more? No, I guess about twelve feet... Gee, such nice flowers..."

Jim shook his head again, trying to clear it. He still felt lightheaded. "What?! What did the old man say about the barriers? I can't remember... It's hard to remember... Why is it hard to remember? These flowers... Sweet and tart, like a rose... They remind me... remind me of what? Flowers... They remind me of a woman's perfume. They remind me of Susan I guess... This road is so amazing... Susan was so amazing. I still miss her. Such amazing flowers... They remind me how Susan used to smell... stepping out of a shower..."

Jim's eyes glazed over, and his face began to have a dazed expression on it. The car continued traveling down the road. The Jazz music playing went totally unnoticed. "Susan... so beautiful... getting dressed... how I'd love to watch her dress... Sweet as the flowers, they smell so nice... in the morning... her playful smiles... catching a glimpse of a bare leg, in the slit of her skirt..."

Jim sighed deeply, his heart slowing down way below its usual beat rate. "How sweet her skin used to smell, like the flowers... how beautiful her breasts looked from the side... how beautiful... our first date... holding hands... the flowers smell so nice... how shy I was... when she kissed me... how beautiful... Susan... the flowers... such a cute face... the way she would smile at me... smile with her eyes... such pretty eyes... so alive with her laughter... her eyes... her eyes..."

The car continued down the road, mile after mile. A small spark of Jim's consciousness was quietly keeping the cruise-controlled car aligned with the super straight lane, but otherwise his mind was deep into a different reality, immersed in the one brief love affair of his life.

"So nice to help her... to care for her... Carrying groceries, fixing her apartment... lying down with her... The memories are so sweet, like the flowers... She smells so nice... Her skin is so soft. Such wonderful breasts... so soft... How she would smile when I would pet her, in the beginning... Susan... How beautiful you are... Such soft breasts... So mysterious... So different... Such a wonderful smell. The smell of her breasts. The smell of the flowers. The smell of her nipples..."

Totally unnoticed to Jim, his penis began to get erect, "Susan... How beautiful you are... So soft. Stroking her flat stomach. So soft. Her fur beneath... So soft, so silky, so mysterious... It smells so nice... The smell of sweetness and goodness... Like a flower... Sweet and tart... Susan... So beautiful... Like a rose... Like the flowers, the wildflowers... She smells so nice..."

The sun made its great slow arc across the sky as the car continued down the road. The CD had finished playing, and the soft rush of the wind was the only sound of the car's passing. "Susan... Drifting apart... not liking my attitudes... not liking my study time... not liking me anymore... not liking me... She thinks I'm dull! She wants someone else! She has someone else! Susan! How beautiful! Soft and warm and how beautiful! She has someone else! Susan! Susan! Susan..."

Unnoticed to his mind, Jim's penis was throbbing in an erection, pushing up stiffly against his pants. His hips were rocking back and forth as his thoughts exploded in overwhelming desires to mount and thrust. The primal urge to orgasm was building in his body...

Through tear-filled eyes, Jim's mind noticed a change in the extremely monotonous landscape. Up ahead across the median on the eastbound side of the road there was a movement of red and white color, moving up and down and then in circles. His brain started engaging with the new perceptions, and the activity snapped Jim out of his daze.

Jim was totally shocked as he suddenly realized how deeply he had been drifting, and he braked the car to a halt, amazed that he hadn't driven off the road. He felt he had just woken up from a very long and sexy dream, and he felt emotionally drained. He was shaking and stunned to realize he had been crying and that his penis was fully aroused and his groin was pleading with him for some stimulation to push it into orgasm.

He shook his head in bewilderment and looked across the road. All thoughts of releasing himself sexually or trying to figure out what had just happened to him were put aside. Across the median in the opposite breakdown lane was another car, and a person was feebly waving red and white clothes at him. Jim shut off his car and began to jog over.

The heat of the day was oppressive, intense sun and very dry. Jim thought it must be close to 100F. As he approached the other car, he realized that the driver was a young woman, about his age he thought. She was alone, Oriental, perhaps Chinese, and she looked to be in a great deal of distress. Jim closed the gap and in a few seconds was standing right beside her.

"... Water..." she croaked in a super dry voice.

Jim's eyes widened. "Oh my gosh! Yes! I have it! I'll be right back!" In less than a minute, Jim was back with three liter-bottles of water. He unscrewed the cap of one and handed it to her. She grabbed it out of his hands and began to gulp it down. While she was drinking, Jim opened a second bottle and began to drink himself. He was surprised to find he was also very thirsty, almost dehydrated. He looked at his watch and was shocked to see why. It was 2:30 PM. He had been driving for four hours.

The woman made a whimpering sound and beckoned for the remaining water bottle. Jim handed it to her but said, "You might want to wait a few minutes, if you can. I have lots more, that's not a problem. But you might want to give your body a few minutes to adjust..."

Time: Unknown, parked in a field of corn... We all woke up about the same time in the cockpit. Hoshi looked totally confused and surprised that we were still in one piece. The view outside was that of a setting sun. The plane was surrounded by a vast expanse of corn... I probed with my mind and sensed the 400-foot sound barriers in all directions, about 23 kilometers away. I probed a little more closely. I think my seat in the cockpit was directly opposite the center of Antelope Freeway....

"Oh hell, Jim. Hell... Look at the odometer. It's right on schedule." It was now 8:40 AM. Jim slowed down and stopped by Cindy's car. Cindy noticed the battery status flip from yellow to blue, as the current charge of 33% began to make its 2% per minute ascent. The day was starting out just as whacky as the last one had ended. They had had an early breakfast and had started traveling eastbound on Antelope Freeway at 7 AM sharp, a few minutes before sunrise. Jim had decided to drive at 67...

Antelope FreewayChapter 29

I awoke about an hour before dawn, breathing deeply and totally relaxed and refreshed. A'moth was still sleeping in my arms, but I could sense she was right at the edge of waking up herself. I began to nuzzle her neck and pet her stomach. "Ah! Good morning Gary..." I glanced out the tent. It was still dark outside. "Gary... Yeah... I haven't been called Gary in years." A'moth nodded. "It was the same for me sometimes, over the centuries. You're the first person who knew me as...

Time: Unknown, Blue thunder on Antelope Freeway... Just as Gary completed his jump, the light in the cornfields of Antelope Freeway changed from the normal afternoon sunlight of late-winter to something so bizarre that A'moth gasped in astonishment. All the colors of the green corn and brown earth were replaced by a bright cornflower blue, the entire world one great expanse of great blue glowing light. The sky above was incomprehensible, a uniform blue without clouds, but with a huge arc...

Earth time: April 27, year 204,860 9:00 AM Antelope Freeway Standard Time After my morning workout with A'moth in the arctic gym, I was all set for our usual 8:00 AM staff meeting, but Isabelle said she and Jim are working on something interesting and she asked if we could postpone the meeting till ten o'clock. So I asked Issie to jump me to Antelope Freeway so I could practice my jumping for a while. I practiced for about a half hour, and then got bored. I parked in...

Time: 1 hour 52 minutes post injection Isabelle had spent the last several minutes running preliminary diagnostics. Hoshi looked on quietly and admired her expertise. The other four teachers were gathered near the door. "This confirms it," Isabelle called back to the other teachers. "The plane has dropped back to its very last solution. It's activated both terrain mapping radar and gyroscopes, and is being guided by its internal map software." "I didn't even know the jets had such...

I smiled, feeling well rested. A'moth was already up and gone but I was still feeling the warmth of Isabelle sleeping by my side nearest the window. I opened my eyes, and saw one of the nine-year old girls watching me from about an arm's length away. She smiled at me when she noticed me looking at her. "Hello....

Time: December 3, 207145 6:57 PM Nebraska Standard Time We started the meeting right after dinner, and had been working on the plan for almost an hour. All twelve of us were in Conference Room A, the primary situation room of the arctic home. Jim and Isabelle had finally come up with a plan of what we should be doing, and it was a doozy. All twelve of us had been debating it ever since. Even the girls were chiming in... "If we decide to do this, how soon should we leave?" asked...

Antelope FreewayChapter 3

They drove in silence for the first part of their trip. Cindy would occasionally put her hand outside the window and let the air flow through her fingers. "Ah," she said at last, "I haven't driven with open windows in ages. When I was with my parents, it was just so easy to keep the climate system on and listen to music..." "I've got some CDs if you like. Mostly Jazz, but also some Spanish guitar and choral music... Some Rock & Roll from the 60's and 70's too..." "Sounds...

Antelope FreewayChapter 9

Cindy leaned against the northern sound-barrier and sighed, enjoying the warmth of the small window of sunlight. She finished her picnic lunch and drank the last of her last bottle of water, and reflected again on how amazing her life was turning out to be. She had been together now with Jim for almost two weeks. They had been making progress in several ways, and were utterly stymied in others. They still saw no way out of their Freeway prison. They paced the perimeter and grounds for...

Aina: 8:04 AM, day 217 of 1406 H.E., two hours after sunrise, morning after the Red Bird Festival Earth: Thursday, 12:13 PM, October 22, 2009 Central Daylight Savings Times Cindy crept up the mountain, her body shaking with fear. A great red hawk was hunting her overhead, and she felt very exposed on the bare rocks. This was the first time she had seen the awful predator since last summer, and she was dismayed at the added complication. Her only salvation was that the humans were close by,...

Six years later... Earth time: January 1, 2050 12:01 AM Eastern Standard Time I was reading a book in the main library, sitting in one of the comfortable reclining chairs. Isabelle came into the room and sat on my lap and kissed me. "Happy New Years dad!" "Huh? Already?" I kissed her back and looked at the clock. Isabelle shrugged. "I was thinking of Aina base time. They used to use Eastern Standard Time as a reference... from their connection to West Virginia..." I nodded. The...

Isabelle's meeting with A'moth and Cindy wound up lasting the day. I had a friendly lunch with Jim and then we started playing chess in the afternoon. His understanding of physics is light-years ahead of me, but in chess we're about equals. We like to play game-thirty, thirty minutes on the chess clock for each of us, regardless of the number of moves. We have an unspoken rule not to use the clock to win drawn positions. The women weren't coming out of their meeting, so Jim and I kept...

Two hours later... Time: May 4, year 204,883 6:30 PM Peruvian Local Time After an uneventful trip, Child Transport dropped Isabelle off at the office of the top Genetic e-tech of the city. The secretary electronically signed the transfer log, and then gestured for Isabelle to enter the inner office. As Isabelle did, she heard a soft hiss as two layers of doors closed and sealed the entrance behind her. She looked around the new room. The opulent office was somewhat dim with the panoramic...

Antelope FreewayChapter 56

Time: January 2, 204894 3:17 PM local time outside the Nebraska channel, 4 hours, 17 minutes after injection. A lot can happen in 200,000 years. Nebraska used to be famous for its cornfields, but the area around the channel entrance was now a deep forest. After A'moth dropped us off, Jim and I spent some time hiking around a bit until I nailed the exact location of the entrance. The trick is to probe lightly. Too deep a mind-presence in the channel and I'd slide down without being able to...

Time: 6:00 PM day 267 of 1536 N.H.E. (New Hopewell Era) Mayoni and Kalea were the first to enter the executive conference room on the ninth Level of Spirit House, a half hour early for the upcoming meeting. The western views out the panoramic windows looked very familiar. They should have. Mayoni's and Kalea's apartment was directly above the conference room on Level-10. Through all the years of their absence, the Hopewell had kept the apartment reserved for them. The two sisters sat down...

Antelope FreewayChapter 4

Jim and Cindy both got out of the car after Jim pulled into the breakdown lane. Across the median about 200 feet away sat the other car, its flashers brightly blinking. Jim thought it was a large car, expensive looking... Cindy was the first to speak. "I don't believe it! It's another Mercedes Coupe! My gosh, it's my exact model too!" She then had a shocked look on her face. She gave a strangled cry and began racing across the median to the other car. Jim began to walk after her to the...

Antelope FreewayChapter 5

The miles glided by. The ride was incredibly quiet; the only sound the rush of wind by the windows. Cindy had been relaxing with her eyes closed, her body tired but her mind too excited to rest. She finally gave up trying to sleep and opened her eyes and looked at the clock. "Past 6:40," she said. She let her fingers play with the wind outside her window. "At least it's still cooling off some more. What a relief! Still doing fifty- eight?" "Yep, speed is steady..." said Jim, very...

Antelope FreewayChapter 7

It was just after 1:40 PM when Jim and Cindy returned from his car to their grass picnic area by the sound barrier. "I checked the batteries." Jim commented. "They're 80% charged now. At least the magic is still with us." "Uh huh..." Cindy said idly. She was carrying her flute from the car, and she walked over and sat down on the picnic blanket, taking off her sneakers and socks. She lifted her head up and gazed at the white clouds above her. The weather was delightfully cool, 53F,...

Antelope FreewayChapter 8

Jim and Cindy spent the next half hour walking the inside perimeter of their 300-foot by 500-foot prison. It was after 5 PM, and sunlight was reaching only the upper parts of the northern and eastern walls. Everything else was in shadows. Cindy felt a great wave of resignation wash over her as they completed their walk. "Do you think we'll ever get any sunlight down here?" Jim muttered, "Not much..." without thinking, but then began to consider the issue. "Certainly not near the...

He blinked his eyes open, and then he smiled at the sight of naked Anuhea sleeping in his arms. They had just married the previous evening, and had spent two hours afterwards hiking...

Antelope FreewayChapter 11

Cindy was asleep for about an hour when she began to have a most amazing dream. At first she was at the bottom of an enormous cylinder, perfectly shaped and filled with crimson light and so vast it was beyond comprehension. There was a great golden spiral curving up around the inside of the cylinder, making one and half revolutions before reaching the top miles above her. After a moment the scene blurred, and Cindy was falling backwards against giant red soap bubbles, a deep red light...

Antelope FreewayChapter 12

Cindy awoke after daybreak and discovered she was alone. She continued her search for several hours without success, and then heard a number of human voices coming from nearby. She climbed a ridge to investigate and was horrified by what she saw. Cindy guessed there were seventy dead human bodies in the field before her. The snow was red with their blood. About thirty men and ten women were moving among the corpses. Cindy climbed a tree and stared at the carnage, trying to make sense of...

In the early morning, the two mothers currently parenting the twins asked them where they'd like to go for the day. In one voice, Kalea and Mayoni answered with a shout, "L&M's!" So Jennifer and Kara packed box lunches for everybody and they took the subway to the Aina's one and only Water Park. The two women...

She kicked off her shoes and sat in one of the plush lounge chairs in front of the bay windows. The view was due west, and sunset would be at 2:51 PM. The scenes of the snow capped mountains in the setting sun were spectacular. About ten minutes later Mayoni came in carrying a piece of paper. She joined Kalea, discarding her shoes and jumping into an...

Kalea had already left the apartment for the University, so Mayoni dashed out of the bathroom naked except for a towel around her shoulders. "Hello?" "Hi Mayoni. It's dad. How are you?" "Oh, hi dad! I'm fine. Where are you?" "In what used to be southern France." There was a pause, and then Mark laughed. "Actually, the...

(mid summer) A'moth completed her eighteenth lap on the underground jogging track and glanced at her watch. The track was very springy and a delight to run barefoot. A'moth was pacing herself to one lap per minute, a nice easy run for her. The diameter of the vast cavern was 132 meters, and A'moth was running about 1.5 meters from the wall. Each lap was...

"Mr. Connors, can I ask you a question?" My lawyer's quiet question brought me out of a daydream. My daughter Isabelle was sitting in a chair on my other side. Her eyes were closed, but I sensed a subtle shifting of her head as she plugged into the conversation. "Of course," I whispered. "What's up?" "While you were...

They were neatly stacked in two separate piles in the room. Isabelle looked so excited I decided not to press her for explanations, let her decompress first. A'moth's downstairs area was very comfortable. It was a nice deep basement, more than seven feet of head room. There was one large living area plus...

(16 minutes past sunset) Isabelle won the flip and started as White. I gulped when she offered me the King's Gambit by pushing P-KB4 on her second move. The game was on its way to some major league fireworks. A'moth popped into existence just as I was accepting the Gambit. "Ah, you'll have to wait on that! We have an arriving train to catch, the 3:40...

Antelope FreewayChapter 24

After tucking Sarah in, my wife begged to take a shower first, before we talked. I changed into a new tee shirt and cotton shorts, and sat of the king-size bed in our bedroom waiting for her. I was so tired. After a few seconds I lay down to rest. My mind was desperate to think about something pleasant and non-threatening. I started thinking about the house... It's a good house, comfortable, simple, a non-pretentious boxy cape. It feels like a home. Foundation size is about 10 meters by 12...

It was an hour after sunset and a beautiful evening for a stroll, pleasantly cool after the warm day. Mahina was a brilliant waxing half-circle of blue light in the southern sky, and there were even a few solar-panel lights mounted on poles around the village, providing more than...

Earth time: Monday, 4:29 PM Mountain Standard Time, January 3, 2011 Aina time: 8:30 AM day 83 of 1408 H.E. I was standing in a barren cornfield in the center of Nebraska. It had taken us close to four hours to drive here from Pine Bluffs. A'moth and Isabelle were walking around a short distance away, the dry icy snow crunching and squeaking beneath their boots. The car registered to my new identity was parked on a narrow farm road about a hundred meters away. I shivered in the cold. The...

My routine is to take Route 61 southeast from home at Minneapolis Minnesota and drive out to the Richard J. Dorer Memorial Hardwood State Forest. A huge place, thousands of square kilometers of virgin forest, and with all the preoccupation with the plague, almost deserted. I love turning my body loose to run. I locked my car and looked around,...

(77 days after memory integration, First leap- day of 1473, two days before the Festival of the High Sun and day zero of 1474) Mayoni and Ekela walked through the quiet orchards well north of the old deserted museum-village, holding hands and enjoying the lush beauty and sweet smells of the fruit trees around them. The sun was very low on the horizon and would set in twenty minutes, and the native Aina...

Antelope FreewayChapter 33

I woke in the cave after four hours of sleep. A'moth was gone. I lounged around for a while, thinking about life. A'moth's story about Chungieran sex really shook me up. Not just my personal situation, but the fact that the dominant male gender on her world intentionally changed their reproductive act to be unpleasant. Somehow, I can't see the guys of Earth jumping on that bandwagon, no matter how crowded life got. But then again... Oh, I don't know. It was just that I was face to face...

Later that morning... Earth time: Tuesday, April 26, 2033 9:00 AM EDT "God damn it you asshole! We haven't got time for that! Run and get me the bolt- cutters! Move!" "Sure thing Carl! Just be a minute..." I heard someone run off, leaving Carl fuming on the outside of the generator hut and pounding on the door in frustration. I was just a meter away from him on the inside. Fortunately there were no windows. Generators around here are priceless, and this one was extremely well...

An hour later... Earth time: Tuesday, April 26, 2033 6:49 PM EDT Aina time: 7:00 PM day 254 of 1436 H.E. I was in the back of our home cave with A'moth. She's in a deep sleep, breathing easily. I'm hoping she'll be okay. She did warn me her body would hibernate as it repaired itself and grew a new hand. I was lying with her, caressing her, just enjoying holding her. Occasionally she would sigh contently in her dreams. I think she knows I'm cuddling with her. Yeah, I'm hoping she'll...

Six years later... Earth time: Sunday, June 14, 2043 5:50 PM Eastern Daylight Savings Time Aina time: day 251 of 1449 H.E. 4:19 AM Isabelle looked at the wall clock and felt a rising tide of exasperation. "People! In exactly three days the tunnel will open! We need to come to closure on this." Cindy took a deep breath and paused to look around the situation room. They had made many changes to their arctic home over the years, and currently one entire floor was devoted to mission...

(145 days after memory integration, one week before the start of autumn and the Festival of Harvest) Ekela finished his portage from Maluhia, the small resort hamlet the Hopewell had recently built along the eastern line of the great rim mountains. The hamlet consisted of a single hotel and a few small buildings for supplies and emergency medical support. The hotel could house a hundred people, but Ekela, Mayoni,...

Nine years later... Time: February 27, year 204,883 7:52 PM Peruvian Local Time The door opened and an angry young girl stomped into her dorm room. She then froze in astonishment and yelled, "Who the sink are you?!" "Hi! My Short is 714. I've been transferred here from Kangnung." "The plunge?! They're transferring kids now?!" "So it would seem. Hello 825." "You expect a sinking hello back?! You have a lot to learn! Get the plunge out of here!" Short-714 shrugged her...

Two months later... Time: May 4, year 204,883 2:27 PM Peruvian Local Time Isabelle sat in Dr. Ceres outer office, glancing at the clock occasionally. She had been tersely ordered to report for a two o'clock meeting, and it was unusual for Dr. Ceres to be late. Suddenly Dr. Ceres walked in from the hall and with a quick hand gesture waved at Isabelle to follow her into her inner office. "Sit down after you close the door 714," the doctor ordered as Isabelle walked into the room....

Several hours later... It was almost 10 PM before Brianna was led by building security to her new home, the upper levels of the Central Government Complex. After going through a number of rigorous medical exams in the labs below, Brianna was surprised to be allowed to discard her flimsy medical smock and to put on newly issued clothes. And then she was escorted to an ascending elevator. Brianna had assumed she'd be kept in one of the sub-level holding pens, and was half expecting that the...

Seven months later... Time: November 2, year 204,883 7:00 PM Peruvian Local Time In the month of October 204,883, Brianna and Isabelle and 1,679 other Peruvian girls passed their ninth-year control gates. The graduates began using their chosen names, and on the first afternoon of November they were all allowed to begin touring the male puppy farms, entering the pens and playing with the boys and choosing which ones they would like for pet-mates. By the end of the second day, over sixteen...

Ten years later... Time: December 26, year 204,893 4:30 AM London Local Time Nineteen year-old Brianna walked out of Kyle's kennel and joined Isabelle who was waiting for her in a car. Isabelle, though mentally much older, also had a nineteen year- old body, and was wearing brand-new epaulettes showing her rank as a Level-2 Commander. Brianna's graduation from the College of London was one month away. She had one last step remaining in her doctoral program, the completion of her...

Time: January 1, year 204,894 9:11 PM London Local Time (T plus 12 minutes) Jim was lying quietly on his mat, his eyes closed and pretending to be asleep. He suddenly noticed a slight lemon taste in his mouth and breathed a sigh of relief. It was Gary's signal that he was back in the area, and lemon was the code for full success. Profoundly happy that his son was almost free forever from the grips of the WFM, Jim settled down and tried to get some real sleep. Time: January 1, year 204,894...

Time: January 2, year 204,894 2:15 PM London Local Time (T plus 17 hours, 15 minutes) Jim paused for a second, staring at the corporal beckoning him to the couch. He then felt a brief taste of lemon in his mouth, and he realized it was Gary reminding him that Gary would protect him if things really got out of hand. Jim smiled a bit as he thought of what Gary's definition of "out of hand" would be in a situation like this. He walked over to the couch. "There's a good puppy! Such a nice...

Time: January 2, year 204,894 5:00 AM Honolulu Local Time (T plus 19 hours) One hour before black-hole injection, the slip ship jumped from one hundred kilometers to seventy-five kilometers from the geodesic center of NBHX35. The black hole's event horizon was a mere 3.5 kilometers beneath them. The orbital period jumped to 1.61 milliseconds. The ship was now traveling 97.64% of the speed of light. Each second of Kyle's and Brianna perceived time appeared as 4.6291 seconds to Honolulu...

Antelope FreewayChapter 54

Time: January 2, 204894 5:44 PM London Local Time (44 minutes post injection) I was keeping out of sight from the windows at the kennel; quietly scanning the area to be sure nobody could sneak up on us. Jim was immersed in his work. Several of Kyle's journals were laid out before him, and Jim was going through them slowly, occasionally making notes. Without warning, A'moth popped into the room with us. Jim looked up and gave her a warm smile. "Hi!" I said. "Did your meeting end...

Sharing deep hugs with Isabelle, I spent the next six minutes describing the danger we were in. Hoshi listened in and occasionally giggled hysterically. I would occasionally look at her and try to reassure her of her sanity. It felt so strange to look at Hoshi, look at a healthy young alert woman who I knew would die within the hour... A'moth still had the engines at full power, punching the jet to Mach 2 and climbing to thinner air as fast as the engines could push us. There were no...

(277 days after memory integration, first day of the last month of winter, 18 days before the Festival of the Red Bird and the marriage of Mayoni and Ekela) Two hours after sunrise the pheromones took effect and the X-tree sunflowers curved their leaves into graceful arcs and bowed down before Mayoni, Kalea, and Ekela. In her earlier adult life, Mayoni had already witnessed this firsthand with her parents and...

Time: 1:47 AM June 22, 207145 Nebraska reference time Jim and Cindy had been lying with each other in their arctic bedroom for over an hour. Both of them were trying to relate to the perspective of their partner. Cindy was trying to grasp the concept that Jim had left her two days ago. Jim was trying to grasp the concept that Cindy had lived away from him for more than two thousand years. They tried several times to talk to each other, but they both felt shy and at a loss for what to say....
