The one observation I’ve made so far about our new home is how weird it smells. The water outside is eerily calm and there’s barely a ripple. Scooting forward on my knees, I press my nose to the glass and stare at the multi-colored fish as they dance on by. The observation deck reminds me a little of the Empire State Building or the Rockefeller Center but without all the buildings and the crowds. Curious to discover what was at the top, I’d hopped in the elevator and ended up here. Levels stretched upward as far as I could see.
I’d wandered aimlessly for a while until I stumbled into the main lobby area. Vaguely remembering Cal going to sort out our accommodation, I had taken flight at the first opportunity. Okay, so I made that last bit up, but it’s probably not far from the truth. Designed specifically as a high-velocity transportation system, it can travel at the speed of light. That’s the beauty of the Velo network, I suppose. It hadn’t actually taken that long to travel here even though we are thousands of miles out at sea and scraping the bottom of the ocean floor. Severely disturbed is more akin to how I feel at the swarm of memories that are presently invading my mind.įorced to flee when the government unexpectedly attacked Saoirse’s facility in Florida, I can barely recall our arrival here in the underwater military Command Center. My thoughts, however, are entirely another matter. Mercifully, I’ve been left undisturbed for the last hour-undisturbed by other humans that is. Well, as soothing as anything could be considering my current predicament. Temporary whiplash sets in as my head jerks back and forth, surveying the myriad of different fish swimming freely outside the glass window of the observation deck. Είναι ήπιο με το αγόρι – Be gentle with the boy.Įvery color imaginable floats in front of my eyes.
