Chapter 1

This winter was particularly cold. On the streets of the city through gray haze evil prickly rare passers-by looked through the mist, wrapped from head to toe in warm clothes. Red disk of the sun hung in the purple haze of the sky, casting copper rays on frost bound by any city. There was virtually no cars in sight. City seemed empty and cold. Unfriendly windows of the houses shone particles free from the frozen ice glasses. From the huge piles of snow on the verges of the gray mist and the silence became uncomfortable, shivering and feeling of impending doom crept itself into the consciousness of people. No one really knew what was going on with nature, went various rumors. But everyone, especially the elderly, agreed on one thing: what’s in de what was his childhood summers are warm and dry, without a heavy cold rain, no cold squally winds, and – what winter. Newspapers have tried to keep quiet about the changes in nature, referring to a hundred years ago this kind of phenomenon is not called to pay attention to climate change. And talked excitedly the intensive work of scientists on the issue of the energy crisis, the shortage of gasoline and fuel at all. Panic itself was not. Plants were operating, schools continued to teach the kids had plenty of food. The Company is not aware of wars, violence, and life was not bad at all. The capital was living a normal life north of the city. On one of those winter days out on the street a young man in the fox fur coat with the collar turned up. Through knit mask of thick woolen material flowed pairs of breath. Face was not visible, only two slits for the eyes. He went out into the street and walked into the direction of a high-rise building with a spire, high in the sky disappears, “solution” to the frosty mist. Small ice crystals crunched under their feet, hard as sandpaper and glittering, at the base of fur boots. The road was quite long. The apparent near the building took a distortion of optical illusion ahead. But at last he set foot on the steps of the wide terrace in front of the main entrance. Steam with a heated stage for a moment, closed figure, but this moments were enough for young people to easily overcome with a dozen granite slabs neatly fitted and found himself in front of embossed gold print banner “Council the planets. “Massive doors opened, letting in a man in a spacious foyer, where him and rushed frost has melted there, becoming a Thick clouds of steam. Finding himself in the heat, he looks ripped the mask, exposing beautiful-featured face with big blue and cold ‘eyes. In the wardrobe helpful robot doorman took a fur coat and boots and filed comfortable slippers. The young man breathed more freely. The lobby was empty. He stepped into the elevator and went up to the fifth floor. The spacious corridors, soft carpeted walkways, people scurrying anxiously. Some ran with folders under his arm, others calmly strolled in pairs between the green cozy nooks. Among all this fuss to meet the young man came out, middle-aged man in a light gray suit with a friendly smile on the face. He held out his hand in greeting and warmly shook both stretched back who came.

– Ah! Theo, I’m glad to see you.

– Hello, Sonia – answer came.

– Today is my report to the Council.

– What, are all the profits? – Theo asked.

– Yes! From the distant planets of Helium, media, and Su Tyria.

– By the way, the Su palpable coalition?

– Not yet, but at the poles, where the conditions were already cold. Migration is at the equator.

– Yeah! What can we expect? – Sadly said Theo. Sleep did not. They came to open the door leading to the hall, very often laden with soft armchairs upholstered in green. The representatives of the scientific world with four planets gathered in the hall. Severe face looked strictly at the podium in front of the towering, where occupied space Son, Theo and eight others, two by two

elected to the Presidium of each planet. The first came from the place of Sleep: – I will be brief. Necessary to solve the problem of life is to survive. That is why we are all here, so we live under the same roof, so we manage the trusted energy of depleting resources.

– Who wants to speak? The first rose of medium height with narrow eye slits man in the Presidency.

– Helion, my word! – Announcing a presentation by Helium planet, Son villages.

– I will be brief, too! – Helion started! – Give us the opportunity to move to the Soo.

In the hall murmured. Heard the remark: – And what are we, in your opinion, Helion?

Son raised his hand, called for calm.

– And warned repeatedly distinguished Council that Helium has no real life conditions. Civilization practically lives at the expense of others. Does it make sense to tolerate that? But representatives of the Sioux strongly oppose it.

– We do not pretend to the equatorial part! Give us Pole! – Shouted Helion.

Sleep again raised his hand, calling for calm. The lights went out immediately. Swam holograms blue expanse of snow-clad ice cities and vacant factories, Life, seemed abandoned planet of cold and darkness. But the picture has changed, showing the stifling streets, lit by the dim light of electric lamps dungeon. People in shabby clothes, half-dressed, almost blind, with no natural light, staring wide-eyed at the camera with a prayer. Heart wavered. Everyone was torturing remorse.

– I demand to give us a pole Su! – Heard the voice Helion in the heavy leaden silence of the hall. The green board above his head Presidency of the Council lighted figure 1400 – the votes for the relocation of the planet Helium on Su. Helion victory was enthusiastically adopted by the Council, under the applause of the hall with his Helion Advisor left room, climbed on the floor above to develop a plan to resettle in the Soo. The remaining rustled again. Sleep is interrupted again.

– If no one has any suggestions, you can break up and renew our one hundred and first session tomorrow. But remember everything, why we are here. Hall sat quietly. In the dead silence all been waiting for a miracle, which would be saved from certain death.

– Give me a call! – Up in the middle of the hall representative of the Delegation of the world media.

– Identify yourself and go to the podium. – Sleep have a wide gesture place for performances.

– I’m Gay, commander of the media that delivered here a delegation of scientists. Slender middle-aged man making his way between the rows to the podium. When he took the place of the speaker and the light illuminated his blond hair, Hall saw an unusually beautiful face and intelligent gray

eyes that glanced openly with sensory involvement, conscious of all the depth of the tragedy.

– I do not know the energy potential of the Union, but firmly convinced that we are not alone in the cosmos.

– Please, more specifically! – Urged Dream.

– My suggestion will seem ridiculous, maybe naive, but in the current situation…

– Do not wait, you say, what you suggest! – Killed him out of the room. Cavalier treatment with astronauts gave the right of scientists, takes pride of place in the Union and in the population of planets, and who are the astronauts – embezzlers and so meager reserves of energy that simply pouring into the pipe ship.

– I ask for one. Search advanced civilization that certainly knows how to get rid of the impending cataclysm. – Hall buzzed like a beehive.

– We do not need to waste precious fuel for children’s fun!

– We’re not crazy! – Sleep again intervened. Hall fell silent.

– Dear Guy, you do know that life in the universe is almost impossible. Probability theory gives a tiny percentage of its existence.

– But still gives! – Guy did not give up.

– Our age – two billion years. During this period of civilization has not found a similar particle in our galaxy! – Insisted Sleep! – Sober mind tells…

– I’ll kill you. Sleep. – Theo suddenly intervened. – I like astrophysicist, I want to warn you, as a crazy, sometimes absurd solutions is the truth.

– Thank you, Theo! – Guy looked gratefully at Astrophysics

– So, I propose to examine the neighboring galaxies through the implementation of our spaceships into all areas of Space and Sensing radio telescopes of all possible space. It cannot be nowhere to be developed beings. In the hall there was dead silence. Guy took advantage of this and lost in the hall. Scientists are thinking. Ten minutes passed. All sat in silence. The hope of salvation – this is not salvation itself, and time on the absurd idea no need action. Proposal Guy went unheard.

– That is all. – Son made a gesture that calls to disperse. Scientists got up and went out on one of the hall.

– Do you, Theo! – Spoke Warmly Sleep! – You do not want to move the Council?

– No, I feel Geyyaninom until I go on the land, as a person.

– Well, well! – Dream patted on the shoulder of a young man. – A now he intends to go?

– I’ll think about proposals Guy.

– Forgive me, but now engage in delusions means incurring the heap ridicule…

– And to be a clown! – Theo finished.

– You’re a smart person, and you will understand me correctly. Dream led him to the elevator. Theo sighed with relief only when closed behind him the massive doors of the Council. Through

thick woolen tie of protection penetrated seventy-five degrees cold, sharp pinching his nose and cheeks. From time to time, Theo was rubbing fur mitten face until no warm-up act, and was able to walk the streets freely. He moved quite a long time, and only when in front of him there was a residential area of flat five-story buildings, stopped and went inside one of them. The door was sealed oval design. Cold inside flight of stairs five-story building did not penetrate, but also enter into a house is also not easy. Tenants need to know the code that is typed on the keyboard, for those who do not know the code, simply, guests will be responsible for the radio host himself. Theo replied to the request melodious voice of a woman. Clicking the castle – and clouds of steam flowed into the doorway together with the guest. Theo easily ran to the fifth floor, where a warm and spacious living room hostess voice. She waited for him at the open apartment door. She was a beautiful looking woman, slender, with long blond braid and smooth, straight nose. Looking at her person picky opinion could not find shit, is not in harmony with the flawless oval face and slightly slanting cut light green eyes. She looked at Theo, as a well-known person open-natured look, gesturing enter.

– And it is thought, would not come. – She said.

– Well, why not? I always think it is better here.

– Yes! It’s good to hear.

– Yes, and I’d like to stay with you, Lea.

– I would be happy. Go to the kitchen, I’ll make coffee.

– Thank you.

She left a corridor to the kitchen, and Theo, like come home unceremoniously started making garments. The apartment was warm and cozy. Air conditioner hummed softly. Stepping soft slippers, Theo entered the room. In the green corner, completely overgrown with tropical plants, colorful birds chirping. It was particularly comfortable here, and the living part of nature does not tally with what was happening on the street. Theo approached the parrot. Ruffled, he sat motionless on a perch inside a large cage. Beady eyes from time to time in the closed half-asleep.

– How are you, Yasha? – Theo asked.

– I’m an old bald bird! – Hissed at the parrot! – What do you the case, how are you?

– Well, what are you bald? You Yasha, beautiful, smart.

– Let’s kiss! Let’s kiss! – shouts parrot carefully portraying the sounds of kisses.

– Come say hello! – Theo insisted.

– Why do I need your hand? – Lisp birdie. – You’re the best, baby, talk about the sport.

Loud laughter women Theo brought to reality. With a small tray behind Leo stood, wearing two cups of steamed coffee. Both laughed and sat down at the coffee table.

– Coffee else is there? – He asked.

– As you see.

– Yes, yes! – Recalling the ban imposed by the Council of Planets Theo bit his tongue. Only they knew that the caterer was only one, it is a planet-soon. Until the next hundred or two hundred years is enough for all, and then what happens next? No one knew. Leah broke the silence.

– Well, what’s heard about the weather?

– Nothing special, one hundred years ago, a phenomenon already observed.

– And do not tell us stories. – Waved his hand to a woman, – You think you’re so clever, do not even suspect that all talk about.

Theo alert: – So what?

– And what comes glaciation.

– Really?

– So much for the well.

– And what will happen in the spring?

– It’s me you should ask that.

– Well, suppose a large warming.

– I would not believe it! – Replied a woman! – If, her eyes staring dreamily into the distance! – If you had not take me to the sea on the azure coast of Su.

– O, Lea. And imagine that there are now as warm as it was then.

– And do you remember where we bought this garrulous Yasha.

– How. You’re very insisted on it.

– And no idea that it would be such a chatty. At six in the morning gets up and starts to raise a ruckus. All living creatures him awake, but now, brat, sleeps… Lea spoke enthusiastically about the birds of the video films, their classroom for the study of control of the body and all that helped to occupy yourself in the winter a long time, people have long Gays did not work in the factories. Equipped with a high precision robotic complexes, industry Gaea gave everything you need.

Theo did not listen to her. He was absorbed in thought about the upcoming release of their search for the Blind status. After all, to do a report what he would say to the Council?

– You, Leah, dealt with the genetics, is not it?

– Yes. But it was so long ago. Our laboratory was dissolved.

– You know, maybe you have to go back to his work.

– O, dear Theo, I’ll be happy!

– Well, we assume that this is your consent. The woman broke into a grateful smile. She stood up and walked habitually sat down to Theo to his knees and kissed him on the lips. He just pushed her away.

– Regulations, Lea, very serious. But as you know, there is no hopeless situations.

– You, my dear, you speak in riddles. More specifically can you say?

– We were forced to remain silent.
