After Dad saw how I’d helped Jenny survive the transfer, he insisted that I come to the laboratory for every procedure.
    As it turned out, he didn’t need my help during the next transfer. The third Pioneer, Zia Allawi, came through in record time. Less than a minute after Dad downloaded her memory files to the robot, she was in full control of the machine. She tested it by raising one of her steel hands to her turret and saluting General Hawke. He returned the salute and said, “Welcome to th
...e team, soldier. Your father would’ve been proud.” I was struck by how softly he spoke, so different from his usual strident tone. For the first time Hawke seemed to show an emotion other than irritation or impatience. I remembered what Marshall Baxley had told me, how Zia’s father had served under Hawke in the Army. They must’ve known each other well.
    The fourth Pioneer was Shannon, who also came through without any trouble. I stood beside Dad at one of the computer terminals and watched her calmly take command of her circuits.
