Krazny Oktyabr looked up Mount Seleya, and was thankful he'd thought of | |||
rocket boots after the last briefing. He kicked the rockets on, and shot | |||
up to the top of the mountain. "Sorry I'm late, Captain." | |||
Previously... Late July, 1998. Annapolis, Maryland... | |||
Dr. Ryan cried all night, after the doctors told him that not only did his | |||
daughter have leukemia, but that there was no chance she'd survive the | |||
summer. There was one doctor who kept insisting there was hope... | |||
cryostorage. "There may be a cure in the future..." he kept saying. | |||
Jack looked up. "Do it, but I want to say goodbye to my little Sally." He | |||
headed into the room where his little daughter, only ten years old, lay in | |||
a hospital bed. His wife, Dr. Ryan, was already there... as a medical | |||
doctor she'd been allowed to see everything. | |||
Later but still previously... July 2398. Annapolis, Maryland... | |||
The lights flickered on, and the little girl lay in bed, well for the | |||
first time in just over 400 years. She whispered, "What day is it?" | |||
"July 25. 2398." | |||
"400 years..." The ten-year-old Sally Ryan could hardly understand... but | |||
she remembered what happened... | |||
... and, strangely, that she'd always rolled in her sleep. | |||

Well, late, I made it to the briefing (server trouble). I thought I'd use | |||
the opportunity to try to explain Sally's origins. | |||
