and forgetting their “parents” to practically unfeasible. These include the interesting idea of mathematics Pontius, who complained to the Presidency, that this idea has stolen Theo, Song blushed. After all, he sent astrophysics at the station, and if he announced he would be the end. Since then, sleep was afraid to think about the station, and mathematics ridiculed by all scientists, calling it a Utopian, but Pontius said then that only the opening save the Union by the disaster and proudly left the Council. Son sat in his office. Thoughts, one disturbing the other, tormented scientist. Year has passed since disappeared Key, a year has passed since the scientists’ marking time. No decisions had been taken. All that was on offer is not feasible. Sun this year has cooled further, and the temperature dropped to Gaia than the five degrees of the ancient calculus. At this very moment, and appeared on the verge of Theo. Sleep is slowly pulled up from the papers lead look and stare the newcomer. In the corner of the room evenly ticking grandfather clock, for the window was the polar silence. Bold met him a clear view Theo. Silent duel was delayed. The first could not resist sleep.

      – How dare you come here? – He got up from his chair, his voice lost its usual bland baritone and hissed like a Boiling makers.

      – Do not you know that we’re finished?

      – Look, Son, appearing here has forced me to practice incarnation of discovery.

      – And, it’s the flash? Look, here’s a telegram control service. As soon as I disable flight inspection station. After all, even a schoolboy clear that the explosions themselves do not happen.

      – Yes, listen to me! – Theo suddenly yelled and slapped on the table. Sleep was taken aback by the unexpected attack, stared at Theo, then added quietly: – Why, now we get out together. And then there’s this Guy. – Try to distract Theo failed.

      – A Guy? – Grasped the theory of saving Straw reconciliation.

      – Out on a starship with twenty five accomplices, ignoring the Union.

      – Yeah? – Held an astrophysicist! – And how do you not? -Again Theo raised his voice. Sleep dramatically stopped him

      – Do you have something for us? – Deliberately making it clear that his fate is now in the hands of Theo.

      – Yes! I conducted practical experiments. I was able to convert the energy into electricity unbalanced system. I even it nourishes the station regardless of the energy system of the Union.

      – Is nonsense. If so, why did not you say so far?

      – Have a good reason! – Rudely said Theo! – Listen to me, finally! – He pleaded. Sleep carefully listened, his head propped on his right hand.

      – Current energy is increasing, but the strangest thing happened after I turned off the radio-transmitter, the explosion occurred.

      – Oh, that’s the cause of the explosion. You almost ruined it himself and me.

      – Look, Son, it is necessary to invite Pontius. This is his brainchild, and He, I am sure, will be able to modify the receiver.

      – I do not believe it. But if this is so, then we are saved. Little that. The Union will be able to get out of the crisis, and we become heroes.

      – I’m not looking laurels for himself! – Pompously said Theo, for the first time felt a part Son, and along with a firm footing. Son found Pontius easily half frozen in the basement, where he moved as a sign of excessive energy waste. The apartment where he lived, mathematician, Service control has detected the use of electricity to bypass the meter. Immediately followed by punishment. When Theo mentioned the name of mathematics. Dream a little flushed. But Theo did not notice anything, astrophysicist Son not suspect anything. And he put his hand to the survival of Pontius, as an undesirable witness his relationship with Theo. And God knows how a mathematician would end if it were not for Theo. Son grunted when he saw a cold basement hunched figure of the tenant. Pontius brown eyes flashed out of round glasses. Realizing at last, who is in front of him, got up from the old chair. Sitting at the same time issued a shrill screeching. Dream winced.

      – What brings you here? – Pontius said sarcastically. His long gray scarf down on paper covered with mathematical formulas. Dream expectantly silent, letting the owner to recover. Then began.

      – I came to apologize, Pontius. Before taking your invention, it was necessary to test it in practice

      execution. Pontius pale eyes. His stumbled face was covered large drops of sweat. He grabbed his right hand greasy collar of his white shirt. The top button came off and plopped down at the feet of Son. He looked at her, then looked up at the math.

      – Secondly it from my home! – Pontius hissed. Son turned his back and calmly walked over to the sink with a tap. He took a glass from the shelf, shook out his bunch of toothbrushes. Then, thoroughly rinsed, took some water and gave the math.

      – Come on, have a drink and chill out. Pontius took a squeaky chair, draining his glass in one fell swoop. His head fell helplessly into his arms.

      – Pontius, drop the personal insults, in moments, scary moments when humanity is facing imminent death, you break comedy. You are committing a crime against…

      – Well, that’s enough! – Glass pieces. – You’re the chairman, a nonentity, but you’re right. Personal insults are nothing in comparison with the crisis. Come on!.. And Theo this day was especially lonely. Heart burst longing for Leah. He walked through the streets of the city. It was summer. The weather was disgusting. Frequent cold showers were followed by gusty winds. The temperature barely rose past the critical freezing point of water. The young man did not shoot the film almost transparent cloak and thick felt hat. At the entrance of the familiar home another woman waiting for him.

      – Hello, Theo!

      – Hello, Noah!

      – Heard from Lea?

      – You know, Noah, how do you explain this? Well, in general, with have no connection.

      She took the busy frightened eyes. Dark brown, they were especially beautiful in the blink tears trembling.

      – Noah, it’s natural to understand. Within our galaxy they need to develop speed.

      – No, you’re hiding something? She’s dead, I can feel it!

      – Yes, Noah.

      The girl burst into tears, began to tremble all over. Theo tried to calm her down.

      – Noah, I do not say so. She is now in a state of suspended animation.

      – What is it?

      – This is an artificial retardation of the whole organism. The girl bit her handkerchief corner. Tears flowed in streams, lost in rain drops on the gun cheek. Theo suddenly wanted to gently hold her close to comfort. After all, at heart he was going the same thing, only he held bravely endured the loss.

      – No, Noah, you need to try to seek salvation of us all together. After all, according to our calculations, the spaceship is scheduled to arrive in eighteen years.

      – O as it is awful. After Leah was everything to me. She again hid her face under a black veil and nervously wiped her tears with a handkerchief scented.

      – Noah, go for it now.

      – You said to her, as if she’s waiting for?

      – Let’s getting up there. There will be easier. After all, she’s alive.

      – Yes, yes. – Agreed to Noah and entered the porch. Theo opened the apartment door and let the first girl, then went after him. He helped her out of her coat, the coat. Undressed himself.

      – Please go to the room, and I’ll get coffee. She sat down in the chair at the coffee table and began to leaf through a photo album. When Theo came in with a tray and cups of coffee on it.
