Phil Smith stepped inside Euro's apartment, greeted by the Italian on the door.
"You know Rose, right?" asked Ed, looking at the direction of his girlfriend.
Phil had the usual impression that Euro was delighted by the knowledge that the mental shield, heritage of his hybrid birth from an Annunaki and a terrestrial sorceress, was impervious even to his own extraordinary mental powers, possibly the most advanced on Earth. while lending his hand to Euro, for a moment Phil tough if it was that that made him always not at full comfort when near Euro.
With Rose there was no shaking of hand, nor a single word. When two telepaths meet, the greetings are not comparable to anything that words can express. It's like two oceans of feelings that meets. especially when the telepaths master their art like Phil or Rose.
The first words coming from that meeting left Euro very puzzled.
"We'll take my car. It's faster" said Phil.
"Ok. I'll take the bag!" responded Rose, but the dialogue was just for the use of Euro, because the two didn't need words.
"What the hell are you talking about?" wondered Ed.
The answer come at unison: "THE KID, ED!"
"Fuck fuck fuck fuckety fuck!" Euro was in panic. "Where is Eddie?"
"He's with Octavia, YOU brought him there!" said Rose, laughing off the lack of coolness of her partner.
"My camera, I don't find my camera!"
"It's hanging from your neck, Ed!"
"Let's go, let's go!"
"There is all the time we need, Ed. Phil read in mind a vision of the near future. There will take hours for the birth!"
SEVEN hours later, at Puerta Mibela Hospital...
"Isn't she beautiful, Ed?"
"I can't believe she is my daughter! I'd say it has been cloned from you, Rose."
"What? The eyes... and the ears... are exactly like your own, Ed."
"But thank the Heaven the hairs are like yours, Rose!"
Phil was shaking the head. The former Raptor, bloody swordsman, reduced to care-bear. What a shame!
