admirers. What a world.
His eyes narrowed as he thought this. Since he realized what was going to happen he had begun to find out all he could about Gerald Summers. Most of his research files and papers were on his desk at home. He needed to study them.
His eyes drifted to Might still lying prone on the bed. His chest rose and fell with his even breathing. Frowning Gbenga rose to his feet reaching for the cane leaning against the white plastic chair he had been sitting on. Putting most of his weight on it, he limped towards the bed.
Standing over Might’s even features brought tears to his eyes. He blinked them away furiously. Now was not the time for tears. There was still so much to do. Reaching down with his left hand, he gently stroked Might’s cheek.
“You have to come out of it bro__” He murmured. “I am not going to give up on you. Come out and help me figure out how we are going to survive the event. You are the only one that knows what I know and has seen what I have seen. I am alone out here. I need your help.”
Might did not respond. He listened for a tell, a shift of his toes or fingers, a change in his breathing, anything to tell whether the big guy heard him. Sadly, he got nothing. With a deep sigh, he headed for the door of the room, opened it and stepped out into the corridor it opened into before shutting it firmly.

The land became more rugged and uneven. There were huge craters everywhere. The interior of these craters were filled with a cloying darkness that seemed almost alive. The lights of the hover cycle beamed out illuminating tens of kilometers ahead.
Might eyes were hard as he revved the engines of the hover cycle making it zoom ahead with greater speed. The green cloudy haze that hung in the air had not gotten any lighter. In fact, it seemed thicker making visibility poorer.
His eyes drifted to the center console of the onboard computer. It counted down the miles he still had to travel on a digital stopwatch kind of thing. According to the computer, he had about a day’s travel before he got to within a hundred clicks of the biosphere.
His eyes narrowed as a thought suddenly occurred to him. He reached down and tapped his finger on the touch screen. The screen went blank for several seconds and then the word Inquiry? appeared followed by a series of dashes.
A key board materialized on the lower part of the screen a second later. He quickly typed in Biosphere and waited. Several shrill beeps later, the screen came alive.
My information systems are in serious need of updates. The satellite systems I automatically update from are either not available at the moment or are no longer in existence.
However, what I do have is this__
The biosphere is the biological component of earth systems, which include the lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and other spheres. The biosphere includes all living organisms on earth together with the dead organic matter produced by them.
The information kept coming. Might put the hover cycle into autopilot and struggled to read it. Earth! What was that? Nothing he read seemed to make much sense. Eventually tiring of the seemingly unending stream of information, he reached for the screen again typing the words B1 twelve alpha.
The computer gave more loud clicks and started to type again.
B1 twelve alpha; designation biosphere is a top-secret military installation built by the remnant of the Aziomle communication franchise. Assisted in part by Zebra one, a code name for the top echelon of the science arm of the US military.
B1 was modeled after the Biosphere of the earth, hence the code-name B1 twelve alpha. B1 is an environmental controlled city, built when it became evident that the military was losing the war against the ether-tome, another code name given to the ether darkness; and the whole earth was becoming irradiated by nuclear and biological warfare.
