"Y-y as Chump bursting, Rick looked at her reflection in the mirror and sad pondering is the same should have been so drunk. -And with whom? Two girls-Mexicans and crony, since school times, Jack Sanders. "
And now, in pohmel'noe morning, Police Sergeant first class Rick Mancini, trying to bring himself into a decent view, holding in his right hand a toothbrush and wincing from a headache, suddenly saw in zapotevshem mirror feature. Well, maybe not quite the hell. But definitely, someone was there. Someone vaguely transparent, was very similar to a human. The mysterious glass-the phantom figure emerged clearly over the right shoulder.
-Jesus Maria! Oh, damn! Holy righteous-almost podavivshis' toothbrush, and dropping out of hand SOAP, Sergeant looked back, there was no one behind him. Turning back the head and spitting out finally breath brush, Rick swore. In the mirror, still, for shoulder loomed the unknown and transparent type.
-Holy Basil, Rick took a step back and stepped on the SOAP, slipped and fell back, right on the sharp corner of a box for linen.
-Hey, zemljachok, something you still decided to die. -Male voice spoke good English, but with a strong foreign accent. -Which laid down? To work to assemble. Come discover the eyes.
Hardly opened the eyes of vaguely Rickey and a bit vague, saw him bent over the taller man.
He was dressed in a kinky catsuit-catsuit, a bit similar to form Commando. Numerous pockets, buckles, rivets and zippers give a stranger a mysterious appearance. If we also add and color: strange grey, sparkling and flowing, the sight before her eyes Rick was back then.
-I have that already in paradise. And you, the type of the Apostle Peter? -tried s'jazvit' and a bit above the floor walk up Rick.
Well, something like this guy. -Unknown filed Riku glass with water, just not now razlezhivat'sja. Difficult time comes, above the roof. And then there's the matter with you nurture. As the head does not hurt?
-Yes No like-a little further up Mancini and moved from a State of "speed bumps" to "seated man". -And that, in fact, happen?
-Yes, nothing special. The main thing you listen to me carefully, Las Vegas Police Sergeant Rick Mancini! Here an unknown man took your hands behind your head sitting Kopa, and stared straight into his eyes. -Your mission: get through forty minutes before his police station, no matter what.
"Aso, and his eyes colored: blue left right green. And even the foreign "sluggish vorochalis' in the mind thoughts,
-No, man, and who are you anyway? And both ended up in a closed room?-tried should be indignant Rick.
-Not important-however-I Observer. And should give you this here pulled out his interlocutor of the mysterious suit any small and brilliant stuff.
Thing very reminiscent of the metal bird: kljuvik, wings. Only the tail was a bit strange, such two zagogulinki, in the manner of a dollar sign, only strongly elongated.
-Peacock or something? Icon pancake, some cool.
-Sam Ty Peacock. This is lirohvost. Well, this bird is living in Australia.
-So what? And me some before this case?
-Yes! Listen: it's not an icon, it is a subject. On Earth, these items at this time ten thousand six hundred and eighty-four. Two thousand three hundred and forty-one item on your hands. They are used by people who like. Who's good, who's in the wrong. Another 1,500 lost in the dark ages. Of the remaining six thousand eight hundred items a large part is not available to people, and the smaller part poprjatana storage in various locations. Made their alien civilization to suit your needs. All items in varying degrees, have a number of properties. People who have them in hand, become the owners of different super-powers, such as telekinesis, teleportation, superforce, jelektrofag, levitation ...
-And I realized how in comic books: "Kjeptajn America", "Bethmann", "Superman", or my favorite hero "Astro Boy" ... I got it. In short, you're Uncle here what tanks there?
-His eyes colored and that? I now believe in this chushnju? Here Ricky tried to get up with a slippery floor. But he could not, in the mind of all zagudelo, before the eyes of the asterisk, and sailed to the throat rolled up tight clump.
-Don't rush the officer. This subject, Lirohvost, one of the most complicated subjects in this universe and, in a single copy. Another no. He does not obey anyone or himself selects the host. He goes to his goal, which I can only guess. Lirohvost can copy the abilities of other items may
amplify or extinguish. On what principle it works, I don't know, but one thing is clear to me: all this "birds" aim to accomplish the ultimate goal. And that's why I put it to you in the pocket of your uniform shirts, directly under the badge of a police officer. And your task: Pack up and go to work in his forty-second phase.
-Tell-Ka dyadya ... and ...
