“Silvie . . .” He paused, glancing to his right. “I’ve made a deal to tell them everything I know in exchange for going on the Net, so I hope you can hear me. I saw what you did, Silvie. And I’m moved that you would put yourself in such danger for me. For us. None of them seem to have a clue about the Books of History, but I believe that when this is all over, you will be remembered as much as . . .”

He glanced off to his right and snapped at whoever was watching him on the other end. “I’ll say what I want; that is what we agreed to!”

He returned his attention to the screen. “Forgive me. You will be remembered for your bravery. The Roush are watching, Silvie. History itself is watching. For all we know, Thomas Hunter is watching.”

“Who?” Mira asked.

“Thomas Hunter,” Silvie said absently. “Supreme commander of the Forest Guard.”

“The Thomas Hunter?”

Silvie ignored her. She moved closer to the Net.

Johnis took a deep breath. “They’ve shown me the forces gathered around the Excalibur, Silvie. Chevys too many to count. ‘Police cars,’ they’re called. Officers armed with the fire sticks. Shotguns. The only hope we have is for you to join me here, where they’ve given me their word they will listen to our story.”

She could read the pleading lines in his face, no sign that he was saying one thing while sending a different signal.

“If they were the Horde, I would tell you to fight your way out or die trying. But I don’t think they are. Stupid, yes, but not wrong in what they are doing. And Darsal, Karas, if you see me or hear me, please come to our aide. Our lives may now depend on you.”

He paused again, then spoke softly.

“I love you, Silvie.”

“And I love you, Johnis,” she said. Tears flooded her eyes. “I love you!”

The picture changed to the announcer again. “Well, there you have it, ladies and gentleman, in this most unusual . . .”

Silvie spun to her prisoner. “Take me to him! Make me your captive and protect me. Just take me to him. It’s all I ask.”

A faint smile crossed Mira’s mouth. “You love him.”

“I do! More than you know!”

“Just like that?”

“Don’t you see? He’s used this invention of yours to call out to Darsal and Karas. You said this will be seen by many.”

“By half the world. And you’ll be lucky if they don’t lock you up.”

“Without Darsal and Karas our mission is lost. If they’re alive, I hope they will have seen us on this Net of yours. Take me to Johnis.”
