"I am so bored!" Ranger Niko says as she gets up from
her desk in the series
five Rangers office.
I do not remember when we did not have any work in a long time
As she walks over to the window, she wonders about her
teammates who are
currently on an assignment. Unconsciously she touches her
arm where it was
broken after a hard fall on the last assignment.
If this keeps up I do not know if I will go insane or not.
As Niko looks out the window over the vast landscape
surrounding BETA
Mountain near the city of Phoenix, AZ, she sees things
that no one else can
see. By lightly tapping her badge Ranger Niko activates
her implant, and
looks into the past of the area around BETA.
As she looks into the past she sees the Dinosaurs that
roamed the area over
65 million years ago; she sees the first man on the North
American
continent, the first settlers to the area and the Indian
Wars.
As she sees the history of the area come to life she
sees something that
makes her concentrate on that particular moment. As she
concentrates she is
looking at a battle that happened in the 20th century against
what looks to
her like an organization that uses androids much like
the Queen of the Crown
did, but they worshipped a snake. The leader was riding
an air chariot and
wore what looked liked a snake costume made to look like
a cobra. The enemy
they were fighting looked liked the top military unit
that the US had to
combat this enemy that worshipped the snake. As Niko looked
at the US
military unit, she saw a determined look of not to allow
this enemy to win
or to take over the country. As she looks at the members
of this force she
sees their leader give them commands and protect those
that fall and are
wounded. She looks and sees a red haired women move next
to the leader and
assists him in driving the enemy back with what looks
like a crossbow. As
Niko watches, she looks for a word and hears the word
"Duke" being asked by
the red haired women. As the one called Duke looks towards
her he says
something that Niko cannot make out entirely. With that,
Niko breaks the
connection and withdraws back into her own time.
Hmmm.... Niko thinks
I had better take a look into this a little more at
the installation
library
As Niko walks out of the office she smiles and says out loud.
"Now I am not bored!" and leaves the office with a skip to her walk.
The End or is it?
