    I'm happy you liked the story. Thank you, Foster.
  2. Part IV, Back to the Future, is posted. Story complete. Thanks for reading.
  3. "Ezer’s ship will pass the moon’s orbit in twenty minutes," Corr said. "It will pass by in weapon range." "We can monitor the ship’s movements, but we can’t intercept what’s spoken on the bridge," Hulton said. "Open a channel to Ezer’s ship," Lest commanded. "I must talk with him. I won’t just shoot his spaceship down." "If he gets through with his plan, then this will only be the beginning of massive raids in the future," Jeff said. "I must at least give him a chance to turn around and giv

    Thank you! I'm glad you like it.
  6. "It’s hard to believe," Osiris said, after Lest had told them of Ezer. "And you think the man wants to raid the pyramid and get hold of the ancient Seth devices?" "You were tracking our shuttle. We were wondering how you had noticed it," Lest said. "Didn’t you spot Ezer’s shuttle either?" "You said the man spent a couple of days here. It’s frightening. We didn’t detect him and his shuttle," Hemiunu replied. "I happened to see your shuttle in the sky when it reflected the morning sun," Imhote

    Thank you! The next chapter is up. Two more and then we're done.
  8. Osiris crouched down and seized an item from the ground. It was a flashlight. The light was strong and illuminated the tunnel. Lest and Jeff exchanged a glance and Doctor Midad raised an eyebrow. Osiris walked quickly, leading the way. The tunnel led down under the ground. They walked a while, then climbed up a long staircase. Imhotep pulled a key card from a pocket and opened a door. The men stepped into an empty chamber. Imhotep locked the door and moved on. He pulled out another key card and
  9. IV Back to the Future   The meeting was brief and the conversation difficult. The Daglon language had derived from the Seth language, but it had undergone many changes in the 45,000 years that had followed the emigration from Seth. The three men on Earth, Seth descendants as well, had preserved the Seth language the best they could, but their language had also changed and developed. Only Doctor Midad, the most educated of the Horus crew regarding cultural and linguistic knowledge, was able to
  10. Part III, Mission to Earth, is posted.
  11. Doctor Midad activated the brain simulation software under careful watch of the captain himself. "We need to speak to the Seth man. However, he won’t speak our version of the Daglon language. The language has developed and changed over the centuries," Lest said. "I’d start out with the most ancient Daglon words to see if the man understands them," Doctor Midad suggested while monitoring the body functions of the crew members. "And how can I find out about these words?" Lest asked. "I know a

    Thanks for you comment. Interviewing Moses would certainly be interesting, but they want to contact the Seth men in Men-Nefer. I think I worded it imprecisely. Sorry about it.
  13. This is very sad.
  14. The shuttle reached the Horus and the men went straight on the bridge. Corr, Le’Ton and Hulton didn’t look up and focused on their screens and controls instead. Jeff and Midad exchanged a puzzled look. Lest looked at the men, raising an eyebrow. "What’s going on here? Is anything wrong?" he asked, sitting down in his seat. "An individual approached the Horus a short while after you left with the shuttle," Le’Ton said in a sober voice. "What?" Lest exclaimed, jumping from his seat. "Report, Le

    Thank you! Will he Ezer get away? Chances are certainly bad. We'll see.

    The Horus has landed (The next chapter is up).
  17. The spaceship descended to Earth and landed on the Sinai Peninsula. It came down smoothly on a plateau high up in the southern mountains at night. The ship was in full stealth and defense alert mode. The external sensors of the ship were scanning the area and the main computer was processing and analyzing the incoming data. "Everything’s quiet on the plateau. No sign of anybody being around," Corr said after checking the analysis results. "Shall we send off a drone to check the slopes of the m
  18. Hulton was working on gaining access to Ezer’s computer, while the others were monitoring Ezer’s ship and the planet Earth in the distance. The engineers were once again checking on the ship and refining the systems. An hour had gone by when Hulton reported that he had established a line to Ezer’s main computer. The man set to analyzing the incoming data. Another two hours passed by and then Hulton announced that he was ready to report on his findings. He turned to the men who had assembled on t

    I hope you won't be disappointed with the next chapter. The Horus will be approaching Earth and the ship will ultimately land and then...We're making progress. The next chapter will be up soon, Thursday at the latest.

  21. Lest and Jeff met in the galley the following morning. "Did you really have Hulton’s software infected?" Jeff asked. "No, I was bluffing," Lest replied. "I’m sure he checked on his software and he had a sleepless night. Serves him right, I think." He had just finished speaking when Hulton entered the galley. He measured the men, then went to the food processor and ordered an enormous pile of scrambled eggs. Jeff and Lest exchanged a look. Hulton placed his plate on the counter and looked at

    I'm fairly sure they'll find out about it.
  23. III Mission to Earth They worked for the Mohic Empire again. Jeff took Le’Ton’s place on the bridge, while the navigator was running time jump simulations. His training and practice on Earth helped Jeff a lot. He got accustomed to the Daglon navigation system quickly. He had also studied the Daglon language and with Doctor Midad’s help and the computer lessons had made quick and successful progress. He understood all relevant computer messages. His neural implant was also a highly effective to

    They will be trying to chase him down and must jump back in time in order to do so. Many thanks again for reading and commenting.
