Chapter 5

You could see a squadron of helicopters flying in.

After they landed people also completely clad in a blue came out. They were workers for the researcher. While the researcher went on board the service personal was loading all the equipment. Only Alexander was still outside looking down into the crate in which lay at the bottom the temple entrance. While looking down the slopes he saw a reptile scrambling the slopes up.

{ What does that little thing down there?

But now that I think about it. }

( Hy go collect all animals you can find in the vicinity that are alive. If you find multiple of a species only take 3 and hurry up, we want to go!

Kowalski take note: every month I want that 3 specimens of every animal being found here and make sure they are not contaminated during delivery! )

The henchmen were starring at each other how there could be any animals still here after 5 days of ongoing shooting and explosions.

In the end they really were able to get 2 lizards and 3 scorpions, 3 dogs and 3 cats which were brought in by the US soldiers in the beginning, as well as 3 mice.

The helicopter brought them to the airport of Kairo from where then they flew into the Caribbean Sea. There especially for the research team build a whole archipelago was transformed into a giant research facility.

After landing the Profs. gave their respective henchmen staying on the islands where to put the things, they brought with them. After which every last one of them went looking for their respective family, being "hold hostage" on the island with them.

( Lothar, I really have to thank you for taking care of Julia. Sigrun is just what she needed. We boys grow up on our own, but girls

Most boys live for the challenge life presents them with. They don't need much care they will grow for themselves mostly. Girls they need a lot more care. Only few girls out there are looking for the challenges of live and Julia isn't one definitely.)

(Alex don't be so distressed. Sigrun always wanted to have a daughter but we never got the chance for that. So, she is always all over Julia.

On the other hand, I think they going to implement something to keep our children separated. )

( Ya. You are right. The risk they see in it is too high for them. We are the only biologist on board. Technical improvement and strengthening for weapons may be important and strongly fought over by the spies, however losing all research on possible direct and indirect influences on all of humanity seems kind'a important. )

{loud laughter}

( At least we can feel at ease with them so strongly protected.)

Just then the two men arrived in front of a well-lit garden.

(( DADDY!! ))

Two small kids came running to the garden fence gate. Each jumping into the embrace of their respective father.

( Daddy I missed you so much! ) the girl said and started crying.

( Everything's fine Julia. Daddy's back. ) after that he embraced her for a second in silence. ( How was the week with Björn and Sigrun? ) Alexander asked his daughter as they went into the kitchen after Sigrun and followed by Lothar and Björn.

After wholesome dinner Alexander departed with Julia and her stuff, she had with her and went back to the house that was assigned to them.

The next morning Julia went to school and Alexander went to his laboratories.

The school Julia was visiting wasn't a real school. It was a form of private school were the children of Researchers were taught normally with other children from natives who lived on these islands before and were now employed in this new Complex that spanned over an archipelago of 4 bigger and 2 very small islands.

Two days later as a surprise for the children the school was separated into a girl and boy school respectively. While again different years need to be in different houses. For the kids it was all just the adults that wanted to take away their fun and have them put more time into learning, while the adults all understood that this was made so that multiple targets are only a minimal amount of time or none at all together.
