âSo you see, this is where we keep all of Dr. VanProkkâs research.â The chief scientist, a young scientist named Dr. Delbokk patted the ancient comu-monitor with its cracked screen reverently as he gave them the tour of the lab. âOf course, we have it backed up on the main storage banksâ¦â He nodded at the glowing bank of computers behind him which ran along one wall. âThat goes without saying.â
Considering they had developed wormhole tech, Reeve thought, the Hascionsâ information and communications technology was fairly primitive. Still, that was fine with himâit meant the equipment was that much more vulnerable to sabotage.
âIsnât Dr. VanProkk the one who came up with the idea of Temporal /Spatial Displacement Avenues in the first place?â he asked the scientist, while unobtrusively placing one of the armed pulses right behind the old comu-monitor.
âHe was.â Dr. Delbokk nodded eagerly. âWithout him, none of this would have been possible. Of courseâ¦â He gave Grand General Viceroy an uneasy look. âHe was very adamant that his discovery should be used for exploration only, not conquest.â
âWell, thatâs why you leave the strategy to the professionals.â Viceroy laughed heartily. âYou scientists just keep coming up with the concepts and the tech and leave the implementation to us.â
The other males laughed as well and Reeve pretended to join in but inside he felt even more justified for what he was doing. Even the scientist who had invented their wormhole tech knew it was dangerous in the wrong hands! He was certain that if Dr. VanProkk was still alive, he would condone what Reeve was doing. What he was about to do, anywayâ¦
He had already placed dozens of the tiny pulses in unobtrusive hiding places as Dr. Delbokk led them around, giving them the tour of the lab. He had at least fourteen or fifteen saved back, however, for the moment when they saw the finished wormhole drive, which was supposedly housed somewhere in this lab. Once he placed those and pushed the remote control, all the Hascionsâ hopes of going forth to despoil the universe would be fried along with their equipment. He hoped.
âWell, gentlemenâare you ready to see the drive itself?â the young scientist asked, as though reading Reeveâs mind.
âYesâyes of course!â Viceroy was already rubbing his hands together eagerly. âLetâs see it, Doctor! Lead the way!â
âThrough here.â Dr. Delbokk led them through a thick metal door and into a small antechamber. âNow, gentlemen,â he said as they filed in. âYou might want to put on some protective glasses before we proceed. Otherwise the drive may injure your vision.â
He gestured to a table where rows of protective glasses with dark lenses were lying. Reeve picked up a pair and put them on like everyone else. He might not care if he made Harryx Parokk go blind from staring at the wormhole drive but it would look odd not to wear the glasses.
âAll rightâif everyone is protected, letâs go in.â Dr. Delbokk gestured them through yet another thick metal door and into a room the size of a sports stadium back on Earth.
