Talker 25
“25 “Five, Seven, Fifteen, Twenty-Five,” Lester says from the front of the bus. “Twenty-Five!”
I think my CENSIR jolts me, but it’s hard to tell because my head’s been aching something fierce since I staggered from bed this morning.
I look out the window. The battle room? “Why am I being transferred?”
“Because,” Lester says. Typical.
I’m not sure what to expect as I follow the others off the bus. Only Lorena, Claire, and a few from Evelyn’s crew have worked the battle room before. Lorena never t...alks about it. Evelyn’s girls don’t interact with me anyway, but they always seem pleased with their efforts.
Lester leads us into a dark room of thinscreens and electronic equipment. We pass a digital map with seven blinking green dots, each located in one of three lakes. Adjacent to a satellite image of an unfamiliar city, Major Alderson and several soldiers operate a massive touchboard. One side’s dominated by indicators, radars, and maps; the other’s split into eight sections, each showing the CENSIR controls of the talkers in here.MoreLess
