"Rommie, take him somewhere safe," Hunt commanded.

She took him to her room on the ship. "Gabriel?" She couldn't believe it. How is he talking to her?

"Sorry. He became too strong for me to hold back," Tomas said.

"How did he speak to me?"

"Strong memories sometimes bring out the actual mind of the avatar, such as it did here. I am sorry if it has upset you."

"No, it didn't."

"Good. I wish to ask something. Your man Harper, he knows how to create avatars?"

"Yes."

"I wish him to attempt to remove one of these memories. It is a strong one that brings out the mind. Do you think he will help?"

"Yes. Why do you wish it removed?"

"It is so strong. I try to keep it down but I fear it will attempt to take over- and I fear it will succeed."

"Who is it?"

His voice changed again, back to Gabriel. "You have to get him out, Rommie. It is Remial. He is trying to control all of us. Please help us."
