Chapter 17. Flying Albert's location was converging on Republic Airport. Their problem was they didn't know what kind of vehicle he was in, and what plane the terrorists had obtained. They would find out at the last minute with little time to act. The terrorists car entered the airport and they pul...

Chapter 16. Rescue Simon and Bob sat in the back seat of their government taxi. Their driver mounted his revolving beacon light on the roof of the car and ran across town with his sirens blazing. They crossed the island westbound on 34th street and headed uptown on 8th Avenue toward the museum comp...

Chapter 15. Kidnapped Normally Albert took the 42nd street shuttle to transfer between the Eight Avenue and Lexington Avenue lines.

General Hayes hadn't been happy about the situation, but he knew there was nothing he could do about it, and he also knew that it was at least partly his fault. ...

10. Coma Adam had been under readout of Albert's brain scanner for about an hour and a half. His vital signs had remained strong enough that Dr. Burakku saw no reasons to stop the machine for any further treatment, but his eyes never left the monitors. Adam's sedation was wearing off and he briefly...

9. Emergency Treatment Dr. Tenamann and Robert Levinson spent most of Friday finalizing and testing the android soldier's software. They put the polishing touches on the demonstration scripts and then backed up everything onto the server farm. Albert spent the rest of the afternoon looking at the m...
