After a while the pleasant female voice reported.

"To all inhabitants. To all divergent, millenius and progressive associations...The administrative management of ous Corporation has disarticulated another attempt by the resistance to destroy our happiness. Our senior CEO in retribution increases the dose of humarin,650 grams per month from now on. An extra hour to enjoy on the last Sunday of the month. Remember...Beware of the infection..Beware of the new strains..They were spread by the enemies of humanity to destroy our progress and development.

Rachel looked up at the sky from where she was snooping and stared...Again for a few seconds. A sphere. Half nickel-plated and the lower half black camouflage.

half black camouflage...She thought she saw it.... Then nothing...

Then, hours later, while he was watching for the umpteenth time the old chapters of War of Thrones, he could only whisper to Sebastian.

--I know I saw something.

It was the day that, as he no longer had biodiesel, he went out to buy vegetables and found Rolando again.

--How dangerous can it be?

-- We have not yet received any information from the space station...As you know The only operative is Captain Crystal Steller.

She only has a few hours of consciousness due to the fever,"-- he answered carefully.

-How long does she have?

--I don't think she'll make it to the afternoon. -- The man said, cursing himself for saying so.

The man behind the desk remained unmoved. The other one took advantage and put up the holographic video.

."...35 years before the first one went through space. Then this one arrived, it spent about 40 days near the orbit of Mars. Then with majesty it became visible.... It behaved like an asteroid. It took advantage of the sun's gravitational pull and turned back.... Then the usual...In 20 minutes it traveled the distance from the sun to Jupiter and disappeared into infinity." ..

The man stood silently watching the other from the desk.

--We believe it's an alien infiltration.

--Do we have the technology to catch it?

--I think so.

-- Keep me informed.

The man silently motioned to leave. He didn't want to bring up the subject of the space station.

--I want to talk to her.

The other one nodded in understanding.

--She is securing everything. She knows that there is very little time left. There is a possibility that in 2 months we will send a crew... It is necessary that everything is in order...

III

Dr. Steller was trying to stay conscious. 42 degrees of scorching fever. Despite the air conditioning on full blast, she felt horrible. Worst of all was the difficulty in breathing..... She had to make a maximum effort to concentrate..... According to his calculations, lung collapse was imminent.

-- Dr. Steller. It's base 6. Is he there?

-- I'm still here-- she answered haltingly.

-Your father wants to talk to you.

sHe didn't answer. I wanted to spare him that suffering. Although he doubted it...If anyone could say he had a heart of stone, it was her father.

--Crystal Isabella,"-- she heard her father's voice in the distance. They hadn't spoken in months. That call was the indication that in minutes it would all be over for her.

--I'm sorry it's like this.... I'm concentrating on securing all the programs and the lab. I don't think I have much time to talk.

--Daughter,"-- said the man's voice with something akin to sentiment.

--The only thing I regret is that the experimental drugs we sent did not work. I was almost certain to succeed.

--I want to stay with you.

--I don't want you to watch me die.

The man said something.

She didn't listen... She felt like she was drowning and was floating in the space station... Inert ...

The man clenched his fists watching the image of his daughter floating in the huge laboratory room of the space station , next to the small tubular command control room . Clearly he saw the shadow move towards his daughter, then he saw the communication monitor shut down.

The man looked again and ordered, --Re-establish communication immediately, I think someone was in there, she was not alone.

--My daughter is not alone in there,"--he repeated and everyone heard him clearly.
