              Short story to the game "Escape to Harhan.


    Ivan wandered aimlessly through the woods. He did not know 
where to go, that do, even how he got and where he could not 
remember. Memory extremely reluctant to return. It happened 
with all those who postponed moving into another body. And it 
happened exactly that. 

    The new body was pretty good - two eyes to
large sprouts gave an excellent overview of the environment,
imperceptibly not podkradeshsya, stomach allowed to receive such
the necessary vital energy from even the most unpalatable things
strong legs easily thrown and landed as easily round
body. All this Ivan liked, even a strange new name
Cruz. It sounded a little unusual, but pleasant.

    Suddenly, the way he blocked something huge. Why
Ivan Cruz, this did not immediately noticed, he did not know. 
Most likely, this strongly reflected. The find was big and 
seemed to fear familiar. What it was like, Ivan could not 
remember. He fingered the shiny mass. "Facing PVC" -

helpfully responded memory. He did not know where it knows
name, did not know how and why knows what it's called
"RESCUE BOAT class bPZh 001." At least until now.
Now, in the brain Ivan came and began to rapidly
increases, tending to fill in all conscience, point, bringing 
with a feeling of something lost, but again finds. Ivan

did not know what will happen next, and therefore just waited 
patiently. 

    Memories surged so unexpectedly that Ivan was nearly
lost consciousness - has worked long-term training. For all
torments him answer questions arose at the same time, all in 
the head mixed, and Ivan, not resisting, just floated on the 
waves memory.



    Before the eyes pop up different images. He remembered that 
he served Detachment investigators new worlds - Detachment

Space Marines bombers. While he was interested only
Only one question: where, when and by whom he was born, and how 
were the first few years of his life. Memory stubbornly refused

help him. Was the only way out - go to the Brain Institute
and insist on unblocking earliest memories. Then it
warned that this would adversely affect the psyche, but Ivan
not believe it. And he had ...


    The first few days, he soundly drunk, trying to drown
the pain that brought the memories. The pain went away, but 
only then, to return with renewed vigor. When the drink has 
become unbearable, Ivan wanted to commit suicide, but hand was 
raised - as he fought with unimaginable creatures, which 
survived only a few even the best fighters can so easily be 
lost? And all the pain did not abate. And then Ivan decided to 
fly there, killing him Parents, find out everything myself, and 
can even destroy those who made him an orphan. His brain, the 
brain child, always remember those moments. Perhaps the most 
terrible in his life. 

    Ivan remembered that the research ship on which
flew his parents and where he was born, has been stopped
far beyond explore the space creatures
probably the oldest civilizations in the world. Parents tied to
ion rocket engine nozzle, and he himself raised
vosmipalaya, unpleasant to the touch, the hand and made to look 
like burn two dark silhouettes were crucified on the metal 
beams. Ivan even remembered the words to tell his mother before 
his death: "Who with the sword come, by the sword shall perish. 
He'll be back here. But not for To retaliate, otherwise it will 
fall on my curse. "Other words he had not heard, they were 
drowned in the roar of the flames. 

    Why not kill him, and put in a capsule and released
in space, Ivan did not know. Most likely, hoped that he would 
die. 

    By some miracle, the capsule had been caught, but Ivan 
himself removed from state of deep hibernation.


    For a time, until he was asleep flying in an interstellar
space, the brain had time to hide terrible memories
the bottom. And he did not remember until the
Unlock ...


    Now he knew where to go and what to do, but how it
implement - for it was a mystery. And then Ivan has decided to
ask your best friend Tolia, who is now
a very influential position. But Ivan did not know that she
civilization, with which he faced in its infancy,
already begun to prepare land grab. All of the most influential 
people had been bribed, and humanity have long to live.


    Only when he grabbed Tolikova guard, he realized that
made a big mistake, but it was too late.

    Do not destroy it for one reason - because of a shortage of 
workers. All the prisoners instead of a quick death in the 
electric chair waiting for a long and painful death in prison 
somewhere on Girgee. To escape from there was impossible - the 
colony located deep underground, which, in turn, was covered 
with one continuous ocean many kilometers. 

    But Ivan soon despaired. Not so bad in the world. There are 
people who know about the global conspiracy and the Earth all 
the forces underground, trying to avoid capture. That they 
rejected information beam, which sends all the data about Ivan 
on Girgeyu, one of Jupiter's satellites, putting it into a new 
body, in order to give an opportunity to go unnoticed and fly 
to the abode evil of civilization - the planet Harhan ...



    When Ivan came to himself, his head was a full order. Now 
he knew what was its purpose and should by all means do it ...
