more developed do not allow to develop. As you do between Earthlings and Humans.
- Stop !!! Enough Let me digest this info. And then my head will crack.

- Leah!
- Lesha, I have no time. If something important - say, but in a hurry.
- Sunny, look what the robots of Invi are, and then what Invirs look like.
- What a twist! - she could not resist - who then Galka? And where is she now?
- This and I really would like to know. By the way, who commands all the fleets?
- Despite the fact that there is a fleet of more developed civilizations, I am entrusted with command, since I know the Solar System better than others.
- Got it. Good luck. But personally, at least one fleet would be located not near the Earth, but let's say near Jupiter. Remember where Phaeton spotted the trail of a heavy ship?

- I also thought about it and have already sent one of the most powerful fleets into the orbit of Jupiter. Received a sea of ​​disturbances that weaken the impact force, but the order was executed. After the change of location, I was forced to conduct a thorough reconnaissance. An enemy reconnaissance ship was found, although it failed to capture it, it self-destructed.
- You, good job. Can I agree with Violet about Girman?
- She and ask. I can give her only combat orders.
- I see. Thanks and on this one. Are you allowed to sit at the reception, listening to your channel?
“Darling, for you at least an asterisk from the sky,” I left the channel of the fleet commander on hold, and contacted Violetta:

- Valya!
“I’m listening to you, Ambassador Alex.”
- I have one selfish request for you. Couldn't you give me? ... uh ...
- Lesha, I'm sorry, I have a husband. Sorry, but I have to refuse you.
- You did not listen to the end, but already refuse. To fuck, me and without you women with abundance. Just your husband, I wanted to ask you.
- What for? - her voice has become icy, - do you want him to risk his life again more than others? And secondly, why should I weaken the strongest squadron of my fleet?
- I need him on Earth.
- On the ground? Lesha, what kind of scam are you up to? But you can take him to Earth, but only him. The crew will not give.

- Yes, I do not need a crew. I need only Girman for an ambush on Earth. Send him to me.
“Take it before you change your mind,” but now in her voice there were contented notes. Indeed, on Earth it is now much safer than in space. Although she thought so. I had a completely different opinion. Turned off the Violetta channel and again began to eavesdrop on the channel Leah. But so far I have not heard anything interesting.
- Attention all fleets! Call Signs! My call sign is Hera!
“Hera, leave the Purring to me,” the Koshak wedged in (I smiled, this is necessary, as he liked my clicker).
“Us to Zeus,” came the voice of Vyalis.
- Hera, if you do not mind, then leave us the Gorgon and the Creator, - Violetta also did not want to change the call signs.
- Good. Your callsigns remain. I am interested in civilizations Invirov, Varkanov and Stetenov. Any suggestions?

“Hera, for Invirov the call sign is at your discretion,” came the beautiful thick baritone with a very clear and clean intergalactic reprimand (like a school teacher).
- will suit you - Bes?
- Hera, I'm Bes. Excellent. As far as I understand, the ships of my fleet are numbered Demons.
- Absolutely. Varkana?
- I don’t understand why complicate things with various artificial names.
“Suppose then that your call will be Varkan.” Stetenes?
- Call sign - fit?
- Completely.
Only Girman moored, I began to change the location (but Leia did not turn off the communication channel and continued to listen). From the usual stationary orbit, I climbed to a height of 200 km and for some reason I wanted to move to the crust fifty degrees north latitude and one hundred twenty degrees east longitude. He turned on the invisible being, because a sense of danger appeared and began to grow. And Lia continued her pre-combat instructions.

- Murlyka, Zeus, Bes and Varkan, how much time do you need to relocate from Earth orbit to Armor?
“I am Purring, I'm eight and a half minutes.”
- I'm Zeus, eleven minutes.
“I am Bes, one minute, forty seconds past Earth time.”
“I'm Varcan, one minute, fifty-six seconds.” Do we also relocate to the orbit of Jupiter?
- While not necessary, but it is possible that you will have to fly to the help of Armor. Although the time of Zeus and Purring is not suitable. A very long time. Help must come on time. Bes and Varkan, at what minimum power of the main engines is it possible to jump into sigma-space?
- Twenty-five percent.
- Me too.

- Good. In this case, it is necessary on board computers to remove the restriction on the use of main engines for maneuvers with a capacity of up to 15%.
“Hera, I'm Zeus, in which case my ships will reach Jupiter’s orbit in a couple of minutes.”
- Varkany refuse to turn on main engines for maneuvers. It is forbidden.
- Varkan, it is better to break the acceptable regimes of ships and survive, than to observe and die.
- What are you proving to me? Conduct experiments on your ships.
- Good. Do not break. But in this case, you will have to take the Purring, Zeus or Gorgon as one extra weight for one low-speed ship.
“I refuse to carry out these stupid orders.”

- Varkan, if you refuse to carry out orders from the fleet commander, then I will ask you to leave the Solar System immediately so as not to be under crossfire.
- Not you invited us here, not you and give us instructions.
“Bes, the Varkanov fleet arrived at Earth at your request.” Be so kind, order the fleet of Varkanov urgently to leave the solar system.
- Hera, one minute. Now we solve this problem. Just turn on the image please.
“Well,” a hologram appeared with the image of Leah, and next to the golkov of Galka in a sitting position, in elegant armor and distinctive commanding regalia.
- Phaeton, what is in Invira for the decals?
“The rank of general and the amulet of the commander of the Alliance,” Girman and I dropped into the sediment.
- But the commander of the Alliance - Murlyka!
- You are right commander. The commander of your Alliance (intermediate civilizations) - Murlyka.

I could not even squeeze myself "understood." Suddenly another hologram appeared with the image of Invir, radiating power and strength with one of its forms.
“Your Highness,” the commander bowed his head respectfully and spoke intergalactic, “we had a problem with the fleet of Varkanov.” We all decided that the fleets should be managed by General Leah, the head of the Alliance, which includes Earthlings. But Commander Varkanov refuses to obey her. And when she asked to take her fleet away so as not to get caught in crossfire, he also refused.
- I understood. Now we will decide, - another hologram with the image of a huge spider, in some clothes appeared.
- See us? - whispered Girman.
- Take it easy. Do not see and do not hear. They see and hear only Leah, - Girman breathed a sigh of relief.

“Your Highness,” the spider bowed obsequiously, “aah, and the commander is here.” What is required?
- Baron. Your fleet commander refused to obey the orders of the commander of the combined star fleet.And generally behaves inadequately.
- I see. Does Invires submit to this woman?
- Without question, - the answer of General Invirov.
“Give me a connection with this man of confusion,” another hologram appeared with a spider in armored general's clothes, “General, you decided to disgrace our civilization to the whole universe!” You are demoted and fired! Commander flagship! Take the former commander in custody! After the battle, shoot! (if he does not shoot himself). The command of the fleet passes to the commander of the flagship. Learn in Invirov. Excuse me, Madam Commander ... Commander ... but what the difference! There are already legends about you all over the universe.

- Excuse me, Mr. Baron. You are absolutely right. For violations of military discipline must be punished and, moreover, strictly. But now this is the situation. Before the fight. On account of every warrior. And your commander is a very experienced and good commander. Could you postpone your sentence? And leave your commander for the duration of the battle. And if he shows himself in a heroic way in battle, then is it possible to amnesty? I do not indicate to you, but only try to save an experienced commander.
- Oh, these women! But it seems the rumors do not lie. You are not only a great strategist, but also a cunning diplomat. Be yours!
- Thank you, Mr. Baron, - all the holograms have disappeared.
- Hera, I Varkan. Thank you. Order.

- So, back to the beginning. Before the battle, we have very little time. The ability to double the ships we have already lost (not enough time). If you have to rush to help Armor, engage the main engines, but not more than 20%. I hope in all invisible and activated protective field. After each shot, a mandatory maneuver. And the maneuver is not in the plane, but in all three planes, but by no means academically. In all fleets, every fifth ship is working to destroy rescue capsules and shuttles. For now. Silence on the air. We wait.

- Well, what is your partner? Do you feel the danger?
- Yes sir!
“Okay, stop bothering me with a martinet.” Do not be offended if I call you not completely, but just a Gear?
- And why should I be offended? So even better. I was so called in childhood.
- That's fine. Valya did not want to let you go, arguing that with me you face a much greater danger than on her ship. And she was right. I am confused only by the fact that you served under the command of the emperor.
- Alex, do not hesitate. To protect my partner, my hand will not tremble and there will be no doubt.
“And if you have to fight the emperor himself?” - Girman eyes widen.
- If I am not able to hit, I will cut his throat with his teeth! - Girman retorted angrily.

- But anger is not necessary. It is necessary to fight with a cold head and without emotions, otherwise you will lose, especially such a strong opponent.
- You're right. He has done so much meanness not only for other civilizations, but also for his own, that on his head the lasso has been crying for a long time.
- To my great regret with the lasso, you can not overlap the blue reservation. And I even doubt that his current armor will be able to penetrate the vampire fang. We will have to arm with the same weapon with which you guarded me. Yes, and a new reservation will also have to be used. If we fight on Earth, it is better not to wear the armor of men or Arichon - extra weight, and it will not protect against the emperor's weapon. I think that of all the usual, you can only use a cocoon.

“Alex, you speak as if we already know exactly where the emperor is now and where we will clash with him.”
- Gere, I still have not been let down by the tune. We flew to where his ship appears. Our task is to have time to destroy his ship before he realizes that under the gun. And then we will chase him. But this reptile will slip away from us to Earth. Why? I do not know. It is possible that he, too, will not be on his plate, but on a shuttle similar to ours. In no case should we let him out of sight. Otherwise, then you will find his figs. And on Earth, he still have to take the fight.

- Not too you overestimate him?
- I once Minah said that the enemy can not be underestimated. So I propose to hope for the best, and prepare for the worst - I just wanted to say that it was time to announce the alarm, as Leah’s voice was heard on intergalactic:
- Attention all fleets! Battle alarm! All ships aim at the coordinates I specified. When an enemy appears, open fire immediately without additional command!
- During. Phaeton, all guns aim at the north pole of the Earth! When an enemy ship arrives, open fire immediately!
- I do.
