HENCHMEN MENDOZY

– Here and our years proceeded, – told Hejvig. – I ved a life of the succeeding businessman with the solid capital and the favourite wife and at the same time moved to the future to study Federation Mauri, its blossoming, its greatness, its gradual fading and the end. Twilight slowly crawled over island. Below, at bottom of Hills, lanterns have already started to be lighted, but water radiated a reflected light of day. In the dark-blue sky Venus was lighted. On a verandah of house Karelo Keadzimu it was smoked fragrant kadilnja. The old man has murmured:
Lantern light was reflected from a smooth surface of a kitchen table. In the furnace, crackling, logs burnt. On the furnace there was an enormous coffee pot. Though to the nearest neighbours howled half-day of driving on a horse in the house stood among trees, Olaf Torstad always received visitors after darkness approach. That somebody will be issued in windows, did not confuse him: let think, that he suffers a sleeplessness.
Arlo was not afraid of a dragon but only because that could not leave own tunnels. Its bulky body succeeded only in the territory. In the big caves the dragon became awkward, to slip away from it did not make work. But within the tunnels in diameter of metre in three it turned to a fiend – furious and invincible. The dragon was carnivorous and ate big and small tvarjami which by nonsense or casually got into its den and had not ti me to get out in time therefrom.
– Yes, – he has told. – I to you told about Karelo Keadzimu. It has communications worldwide. If he does not know about travellers in time, means, nobody knows. Leonsa, we should risk and go to the future, to Mauri.
– Listen, – she has whispered, – you will move forward, at morning. Let they will bring to you a breakfast, and then come back here. You have understood? I want, th at they considered, that you have run away in the morning. You can move? If is not present, you were lost.

Arlo has quickly estimated the possibilities. It is possible to throw it in the river, to alloy to the nearest kitomeduze. Kitomeduza the average sizes it is capable to swallow in some hours a skeleton. But the Hell it was still live and, despite troubles which it to it delivered, he did not want, that she has died. Not including adults, friends at it never was. Now he has understood, how they did not suffice it.
The new group of its army has come up from time and has entered fight. And suddenly on a fortress the parachute landing its people who jumped out of the plane in the twentieth century and have landed now, at precisely appointed o'clock as each of them has been supplied by the chronologist has fallen. The confusion in the ranks of soldiers Eerii was the uttermost. They did not expect an attack. Besides they yet do not send from celebrating of New year. And if to add, that they were resisted by the soldiers specially prepared for such fight, accurately knowing the maneuver, victory Hejviga was inevitable.
– The policy, men Perhaps will suffice, – she has told. – decorate with smiles the pious expressions. Today Xenia's birthday. Unless you have forgotten?
At Slejpnira there was an extended head, a body consisting of segments, and eight powerful feet. It was long and stocky, capable not stopping to rush on very narrow tunnels. As did by its good racer – for Atona. At Slejpnira the reason almost was not, but he knew the owner and did not suffer on itself anybody, except it though some person could take away at once.

– And so, – has continued Hejvig. – you remember, I told about the psychopreparations invented during an era Mauri? My friend Karelo Keadzimu was afraid of them. The person who is under the influence of such drug, is subject to proof suggestion. He believes everything, that to it will tell. Absolutely. It becomes a part of its being, its belief. Own brain will invent for it false substantiations for this purpose. You understand, what all it means? The uttermost washing of brains! So full, that the victim will not suspect at all, that once it in a head had something another.
– Yes, yes, – it has sobbed. – as though I would like to get there and to get acquainted with this girl … If it has presented to you such happiness … But it is impossible, I know. Well, I will wait, Jack, I will wait, how many it is required …
To travel in time, it is necessary to provide at least base for a life, a roof over a head. Therefore preliminary it is necessary to "dive" some times into the future for preparation of the most necessary.
For both were blind. The condition of the zombie has somehow deprived of their sight and in many respects hearing, and they relied on touch. Possibly, a mix – thick enough layer of sticky substance... uf! Arlo it knew and sympathised with their position – but did not love, when it was touched by their wrinkled tenacious hands.
There has come the silence broken only by a sobbing of Xenia which held in a lap a head of mother and did not tear off eyes from Hejviga. All the others – both house Dukasa, and henchmen Mendozy – too looked at it. Hejvig has made the decision during these instants. It has estimated position of everyone in a room, has moved back in time for some minutes, has snatched out a pistol and has again returned at this time. Shots, and a head landsknehta have thundered has scattered on pieces. Hejvig has again moved back in ti me to appear in other end of a room.

And even if the happy future, where road which conducts there is intended mankind? You remember, once I have expressed opinion, that Napoleon should execute the mission – to unite Europe, to gather it. But Hitler of it could not be allowed. It was impossible to admit its victories. And how to me to consider Eeriju?
To realise it, Arlo any time as, except parents and Bedokura, he seldom saw other representatives of the kind was required. Others were on pictures in DZL, therefore Arlo knew, th at they exist, – but those have been dressed.
Here too there were four agents dressed by crusaders. Hejvig at once has learnt them. Mendoza, the criminal from Spain of the twentieth century. Hejvig met it in Jerusalem. Moriarti, the Brooklyn gangster of the nineteenth century. In hands on c all it held a small machine gun. Hans, landskneht the sixteenth century, with curiosity observed, how Konrad from Brabant struggles with Xenia.
– They did not know, that such a pistol and consequently the death has not frightened them. We did not presume, that they the shouts have warned you. Shut up.
It has helped Xenia to rise. The girl has seized it both h ands, and he has stroked its long confused black hair, having recollected as held it when it was the child. Through a shoulder he has shouted the rest:
– Do not move, Hejvig, – the person in English has told. – Also do not try to run. Remember that the woman at us.

– Who such minonetka? – It already asked this question Bedokuru, but has not received the satisfactory answer. Certainly minonetka – the woman from a planet the Minion. Why it should matter? Why it compare to sirens, valkirijami and death?
That minute when Arlo it seemed, that she dies. A hell has calmed down. Eyes have been closed, as if she sleeps. Any time Arlo observed of the girl, but it did not move, and gradually its alarm has receded.
– No. I never could work with a gang of the zombie. After all I should erase all their last life from their memory and … is not present, it is impractical. Keadzimu has arranged some my guys in shkody psychotechnology training, but all the same work was too big.
Also has become successful! The flower has taken root and has expanded. It was obvious, that the conditions necessary for its cultivation, were, obviously, in this light cave precisely same, as well as on native soil. The One and only runaway was divided into two, then on four. Arlo has replaced new plants and has soon collected seeds. Now all of them shone brightly health – some more largely, some zelenee, some are stronger than others. Arlo has tried to cross them to a cave shone moss to grow up shone hveju, a unique plant in all Universe, and has achieved certain success. Inexperience Arlo prevented to realise to it, its achievement and as it is reflected in ability Htona to operate a life course in caves is however remarkable.
But it was necessary to penetrate into all sincerely. A hell fascinated it and simultaneously irritated. It confused. Probably, its confusion was transferred hvejam.
