   ...Эксперимент  близился к завершению. 
Люди,  не спавшие уже несколько дней под- 
ряд,  еле  держались  на ногах, но каждый 
знал, что отдохнуть он сможет только пос- 
ле того, как свершится ЭТО!...

a voice broke the silence...              
                                          
   An unexpectedly dazzlingly bright beam of light 
she broke free because of the armored 
door of the elevator shaft and another light flashed 
brighter, rushing around the room, melting and 
evaporating technicians frozen in horror into 
"spacesuits" thrown at the ready 
weapons of guards from the secret airborne 
Delta division, main console, 
alarm blocks, blackeyes watching 
video cameras, various detectors and 
sensors, leaving behind crumpled 
equipment and melted, burned 
corpses.  Several hiding behind the control panel 
security guards tried to answer 
fire, but were immediately swept away by a new barrage 
fire scrap. The last thing one of them remembered 
them - this is the gas that rolled up to his feet 
a grenade marked "LETHAL"...    
                                          
                                          
                                          
   When it was all over, Demon  
threw away the empty energy capsule and  
inserted a new one into the blaster. Having melted the sharp ones 
edges of the front door so as not to damage 
special suit, he stepped inside. Throwing away 
kicking to the side convulsing 
and reflexively chattering German teeth 
shepherd dog, he mercifully finished it off very 
rare charge. Miraculously surviving tracker 
the camera whirred slightly as it panned to 
side of the unexpected guest and focusing 
image.                              
                                          
 - Soon almost all the art will be here 
Mia!  - Demon threw to his partner, 
frying the camera with a beam, - come on, move it - 
Come on, let's proceed according to plan A2.           
                                          
   Flyer lifted the heavy block, onside 
which bore the inscription "Amiga 
5300.200T".  Having dragged him into the room, his partner 
Nick added a couple of contacts miraculously 
to the surviving computer and began to record 
to the VR disc all available in the continued 
work blocks information...               
                                          
   - Now try to unlock this damn 
the door, otherwise even my blaster won’t open it 
- said Demon, recharging the energy capsule - 
lu.                                       
                                          
   Behind a few centimeter wall bro- 
non-plastic switched on computer tried 
connect to the general information network, 
constantly sending SOS signals and encrypted 
further information about what happened to the headquarters 
security: "Illegal intrusion of two objects - 
Comrade  One of the objects is armed with an unexplored 
no activity suppression system. Other 
goy got unauthorized access to 
secret documents with a degree of reliability 
ness 1E4. Request for immediate assistance 
corporal assistance..."                       
                                          
   - This mother... - Flyer swore, - This 
thing, it turns out, has been transmitting all this time- 
Vala where complete information about us should be 
tion. Now they will definitely take us.            
                                          
   - All is not lost yet! I'm here for them 
what's in store. - Demon grinned,with a wink 
to my partner, - Finish with this door.    
                                          
   - A minute... To remove the protection requires - 
Xia password is nine letters... Damn it 
go through all possible combinations of consumption 
It will take at least a week!                    
 - Try entering "Microsoft".         
                                          
   - ... Right! How do you know?         
                                          
   - These guys have no other words except 
like Bill Gates, Microsoft and 
They don't seem to know "Pentium".  Come on, 
unlock this door.                        
                                          
   The armored plastic door, grinding against 
to a jamb crumpled by charges, reluctantly 
slid to the side.   Demon wearing 
filter mask for active defense 
action on the part of the Computer, stepped into 
snow-white room, leaving behind 
bloody traces. A moment later, behind him 
Flyer followed.  In the middle of the room 
frolicking with winking colorful 
The car stood with lights. On the side there is a beautiful 
was drawn out with an unsteady hand over- 
letter: "Pentium III TMX, 866 Mhz". Out of a hundred 
the speaker nearby is wheezing 
a female voice said: "Immediately 
leave the laboratory. I repeat, immediately 
leave the laboratory.  I give you thirtyseconds before the Main Defense is turned on 
body System!"                        
                                          
   - Sounds good for 32-bit sound 
ka!  - Flyer, with the air of an expert, spat on 
sparkling clean white marble floor 
ra, - You just need to take into account that this is Sound 
Blaster 128 bit Pro II"!                  
                                          
   - Madam, how long have you thought that 
undertake! - Demoh noted, turning to 
Pentium, - Okay, Flyer, finish this 
case, extract their vaunted "only" 
and a unique processor" and we will do 
legs!                                     
                                          
   Flyer knew his business and was already operating 
screwdriver at the test stand. Later 
for ten seconds he was already holding the 
scattering with all one hundred and twenty legs 
processor.  The computer, cutting off the count at 
number seven, silent forever.              
                                          
   “Ready,” said Flyer, and, waving 
hand towards the stand, asked - What is- 
fight with the rest?                         
                                          
   - This is already my problem.  - answered 
Demon and, having listened to what was said 
in the distance an explosion and a chorus of groans and cries, 
grinned - Looks like they've already neutralized 
one of our mines! And now immediatelyto 
elevator shaft.  There, a little lower there 
hatch  We go down the stairs. There 
tunnel.  We'll get out in a couple of kilometers 
somewhere in the forest - there was no time to clarify. 
If we have time, they will have no chance 
owls stop us! Move!             
                                          
   When Flyer was already near the elevator 
mines, Demon turned to test 
stand with a computer and pointed at it 
blaster barrel:                           
                                          
   - I told you that the car would melt- 
Xia, if you launch it with such a huge 
clock frequency!                        
                                          
   A hot beam of light slashed across the equipment. 
vania, leaving no chance for the guys 
from the special secret department of Restav- 
walkie-talkies...
