Gibbsen moved over so that Gareth could take up a long thin ear that sprouted from the instrument panel. Into this ear Gareth spoke:
"Received one woman, suffering from an unknown illness, all of us uninjured: when I arrive, have Dr. Kilver, Mundbern, and Raleigh ready to meet us. My thanks."
Dr. Kilver of course, but Gibbsen was puzzled by Gareth's request for the other two: a technician and a cook?
As the chopper settled at the station, the girl's eyes gleamed in the bright lights, and she pressed close to Gareth. But when they had ceased to move she got out of his lap, staggered, and put her hands on the floor. Gareth told her she could be carried on a stretcher, but she shook her head.
"Flying feels good. Hold my hand."
She walked beside him with an odd gait, and an odd stoop, hanging much of her (little) weight on his wiry grip.
Dr. Kilver met them, carrying a prickly worm in a test-tube, into which he introduced some of the girl's spittle; he also had a thing like a television remote control, with a reptilian snout protruding from one end, to which he fed a little bit of the girl's hair. Then he gave her some water, put a blanket over her shoulders, and hurried away.
Mundbern approached, in his plain military uniform, which looked like it had been died in, perhaps more than once. Raleigh was currently dressed in something which might have been worn at an old theatre; by an actor or spectator, Gibbsen didn't see much difference.
"Judging by the placement," Mundbern said, "I'm sure this one was a most difficult extraction."
Gareth nodded.
"But," Mundbern went on, pointing a black metal rod at the girl, "how do you know this is a human?"

Have you seen or met Biblical know-it-alls, yet they forget the very ONE IMPORTANT THING---LOVE. Yah is love. What is all that knowledge worth, if there's no empathy and love towards other's?
I think our Messiah was a perfect example of all these.
We MUST UNITE and CONTINUE PLACING EVERYONE in our daily prayer’s.
We haven't been able to post anything lately because we've been trying to get out of Israel. We were eating breakfast in our Jerusalem apartment around 08:30 on Shemini Atzeret when the first air raid siren sounded. The next siren sounded as we were walking to the Western Wall. We could see the contrails of the Iron Dome interceptors and hear the explosions, but none of the debris hit Jerusalem.
Most airlines canceled flights that Saturday. Air France canceled our Sunday flight on Saturday night. Air Canada canceled our Tuesday flight on Monday. Turkish Air canceled our Thursday flight on Tuesday.
Tuesday night, I pounced on two Etihad tickets for Wednesday and headed to Ben Gurion in the morning. Our flight left at 15:00; when we landed in Abu Dhabi 3 hours later, we heard that there had been an air raid at Ben Gurion shortly after our flight had departed. A British Air flight to evacuate UK citizens was off the coast of Israel when the air raid occurred, but the pilot aborted and headed back to Britain.
We flew from Abu Dabhi to Washington on Thursday; the whole trip took 33 hours, but we were home. Many Americans are still stuck, 30 are confirmed dead, and Hamas may have a dozen captives. When a nation turns away from God, curses and disasters follow, and this is just the beginning.
