She passed the machine to Rayford and pointed at the attachment. "It is voice activated. Just tell it what you want." "It'll recognize my voice?" Rayford said, studying the screen. "Yes," the computer intoned. Naomi chuckled. "Attachment, please," Rayford said. A detailed grid appeared with an aerial view of the New Babylon airfield. "I'll set the coordinates for you, Smitty," Rayford said, reaching to program the flight management system. "This thing will do everything but cook a meal for you, Captain Steele," Naomi said. "You have an infrared port?" "I assume. Do we, Smitty?" Abdullah pointed to a spot on the control panel. "Here," Naomi said. "Let me." She leaned over Rayford's shoulder and pointed the back of the computer at the port. "Ready to land, Captain?" she said. "Roger." "Initiate landing sequence," she said and hit a button.

He held up a hand. "You need your sleep, Buck." "Thought I heard something." The tiny walkie-talkie on the nightstand chirped. Sebas-tian's telltale code. Buck grabbed it. "Yeah, George." "Motion detector," Sebastian whispered. Now Chloe sat up too. "I'll check the periscope," Buck said. "Carefully," Sebastian said. "Don't raise or rotate it." "Roger. Anybody else aware?" "Negative." |
