The Long Sleep

  “It's already reaching into the upper levels of the pyramid,” Joel said. He told them about the deadly vegetation that he had encountered in the drain tunnels.

  “We've got to burn that out and fast,” Galing said. “Before it gets to the main computer.” He turned to the other androids and gave them assignments.

  Joel reached up and helped Allison down over the tank tread. When she was at his side he put his arm around her tiny waist as she put her arm around him. “It's not over after all,” he said. “This was the smallest battle. The real war hasn't even begun.”

  She kissed him, leaned against him. She was warm, firm, slightly damp with perspiration. “It's sad in a way… Before the war could even be waged we had to purge you of old hatreds. Now, we have to build a new hatred in you. We have to make you share our hatred of the Overmaster.”

  “After what I've been through,” he said, “I already do.”

  “It's still sad,” she said.

  “I guess it is.”

  “And from now on,” she said, “the horrors won't be illusory.”
