HALF OF DAY

This time demanded from them accurate thinking and sober realism. Thanks to me Hejvig has met those scientists about whom I spoke. When he has managed to convince them, they have acquainted him with the colleagues, and at Hejviga the present brain centre which supervised over its actions was formed. Some of these scientists for the sake of Hejviga and its missions even have retired, that has puzzled uninitiated colleagues. From time to time I heard something about their successes. They have developed many methods of the introduction into contact to travellers – if to list all these methods, it would be necessary to write one more book. Many of them have not crowned success, but some have worked.
Constantinople, second half of day … Hejvig left on April, 13th, 1204 on the avenue conducting on a hill. It was not audible habitual knock kopra, a scratch of wheels, a sound of bells, laughter, voices, shouts of children. But the remote roar of a fire and cries of the frightened people were heard. Somewhere absolutely the dog nearby has begun a bark.
It meant what to operate it is necessary quickly. Friends Hejviga could not move in time. Enemies not can get precisely at this time so at Hejviga and Byzantines still there is a possibility to disappear. But time at them has some.
– Well will suffice. You and so have told it is too much. You are arrested. You will be preprovozhden in the future, and Sahem will judge you. Behave well, and, maybe, you will manage to get off easily.
He was mistaken. It was not deadlock as someone has punched an aperture conducting in the new tunnel in a wall. On height of aperture Arlo has judged, that it has made kamneedka size from the person. The harmless creature, and lives it alone – but what strong! The wall here was in finger Arlo. Silly kamneedka, possibly, has struck on it, counting on its durability, and has escaped away when the whole piece of a wall has fallen off.
– Anything concrete. Only in general. Concentrate on strategy, instead of on tactics. Do not try to be at war with the whole organisation alone. Secure with allies.
– I think, that not soon again I will appear in Constantinople. My owners, considering developing circumstances … In a word, be cautious. Try to be imperceptible. Hide gold and happen in the street less. Especially at night. I know francs.

Arlo was going to distract a monster, but it has appeared in difficult position. For some time it could escape from a dragon, turning off in crossed tunnels, – the weight and speed did a dragon by less mobile, than Arlo. But so could not proceed eternally – and it would not rescue wounded to the Hell. When the dragon will lag behind from Arlo, it becomes its extraction – this time zamiranie on a place him will not deceive! Why the little girl has not escaped, while it had such possibility?
Arlo gauging. A hell! It remained in a garden one, without any protection, and something big and terrible moved to it. He has felt it that part which is adjusted for a life of caves. To this ability has learnt him Hton.
– Do not stir, – she has ordered. – it is possible, they will decide to check up and this time. Keep for me, and we will depart to the past. Do not hurry up, I will adapt to you.

– I have come to rescue you, – have told Hejvig. Its voice has sounded strange in this room over which fear and death atmosphere has hung. It has crossed: – For the sake of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. For the sake of Maiden Maria I of all sacred. Quickly follow me, differently all of you will be lost.
The Krasitsky promised Hejvigu, that they, as far as possible, will take care of inhabitants. To them threatened nothing, and even it was left a few money that they could move in other place and begin a new life.
Arlo has spat out in a palm a stone, has aimed and has thrown in the right eye of a dragon. But the creature has had time to blink, and the splinter has only slipped on kozhistomu to a century. Arlo has thrown the second stone in other eye – the dragon has again blinked. Dodge is not has gone right, it at all has not blinded a monster – now it will easily cope with extraction.

Position became hopeless, but Arlo should struggle. The hulk of a monster has partitioned off the tunnel: by not to slip! Two tiny eyes were focused on the boy. Having opened jaws, the dragon came nearer to it.
They have not been prepared for a life in dokolumbovoj. To America also could remain there only very much for a short while. They could be transferred forward in time, buy that is necessary, and to return back. But after that both of them have gained, serene idyll for them was impossible.
Not in forces to understand a fight overall picture, Hejvig has got the field-glass. With its help he could learn separate people. Or corpses … yes, Juan Mendoza … and … about My God, Dzherri Jennings whom he hoped to rescue …

Hejvig thought of that it with Xenia to get over somewhere in a safe place, for example to Russia or the Western Europe.
Arlo has pulled out from cold river water skatomeduzu. That resisted and tried to reach his hand a sting, but it skilful movement has broken to it a pseudo-ridge, and it has calmed down. In murder was some kind of a charm, but also and wines, therefore it never killed simply so.
Someone has knocked at a door. I have said something muffled, have hardly risen from an armchair and, thinking out pretexts for an apology and refusal, have gone to a door. My mood has not improved, when my dog, hardly not having knocked me down, has rushed to a door. I held this inconsiderate dog only because it once belonged Kejt. Being a puppy when its mistress has died, now it already and itself was close to a tomb.
