PROLOGUE.
Just after RJ killed his superior, back on board the ship, but before any plans are even made to restore Redd to life...
It didn't take a telepath like Mitak to see RJ was furious, defeated and broken. His nation under the power of a few men, who used it to help the very aliens humanity tried to fight off. Redd, his mission, was under no circumstance to fall into their hands, but VoidCorp was virtualy everywhere. Just a matter of time before they'd be hunted down. And last but not least, there was still the matter of RJ killing his own wife because she was a traitor, but it was now proven she was right all along.
He could really use a break right now...
And Mitak gave him one.
"You know, when people die they see their lifes flashing before their eyes. And Redd's life was very... interesting."
RJ gave no reply.
"And I know a way to bring back your wife (QY wasn't it?), erase all traces from Redd's existence from VoidCorp's knowledge and even to cure my unstoppable telepathy."
RJ kept staring to the floor, but spoke nevertheless. "Those are impossible tasks."
Mitak shrugged. "Yes, but I think I've picked up something from her mind that might make those desires come true. If you were to bring her back to life, I could try to probe around for the specifics."
"Bring her back to life... That's possible with temporal regression. But I think you're messed up. You're probably suggesting using a genie in a bottle or something."
"Not a genie, I don't think she's seen too many of those. No, we'll get our salvation from a dragon..."
EPILOGUE.
Just after Redd was dropped off.
"Gone at last... Gouda?"
The ship chimed it's response.
"Charge up the dimensional drive please, and set a course for Earth."
Mitak rubbed his temples, glad one more set of thoughts was gone from the ship. "Oh, we might have to fight some humans and humanoid aliens though."
"Fight?" RJ chuckled. "I'm not risking losing this with fighting... I'll transport down and shoot them all through the head before they even know I'm there."
He picked up his x-ray rifle and recalled his mentor's words when he was first introduced to it.
This rifle can pierce through tanks, boy, but that's not it's true power.
No visible beam.
No sound.
No hope...
