FOREWORD
The frozen continent and further south of the equator kept a secret trapped inside for millions of years. From the past, brought a deadly message to all those who were on the way and Nick Frost was one of them. The discoursed drilling as planned and that they were all extremely competent all was under control, that was the big mistake of Sven Urland, open the Pandora's Box.
Nadja Romanov had grand aspirations and dreamed of a prince passing through it every day and not realize it was as if there were not at least thought so, however, the fate put them in a breakneck race so that they could survive. A day like any other, a light breeze that cut through the frigid cold and dull white and irregular landscape. A deadly mist traveled without haste to change the history of the human race and the concept of life we knew up to that point.
Just a man and his innermost secret could be the answer that would save mankind from Revelation as announced in the Holy Books. During the ancient times there was always the threat that the dead would inherit the earth, much more than a myth frightening reality that persisted in extinguishing the human race in such a way as if it had never existed, but persevere was among the greatest qualities of this kind and do not let defeat without a fight, though inglorious.
Oliver McQueen always been a man of principle until the moment to fight for survival and their way of life have become the biggest reason for living and it would not scruple much less condescending. An empire built with dubious reputation in the search for cures for diseases that only the most remote tribes in the world knew their secrets. NOMAD was born the Corporation and its global domination interests, but that was not the privilege only of them, the world had always been so. The strongest subjugating the weakest, but this game was about to change hands.
Vladimir Timochenco was a man of war, he had witnessed the horrors of which men are capable of doing against each other when they need to achieve a specific goal. There was no forgiveness for the crimes he had committed in the name of ideologies that in the future would prove wrong and dead, in any case, his services in the service of the Corporation were invaluable and without question ...
At the end, humanity had succumbed to the power of an invisible enemy that aimed to begin a new era of development for the human race, but to make this possible, it is necessary to be extinct before anything else and there was no method efficient than father against son and brother against brother. It was a one-way delayed for an eternity. They stayed behind and condemned to oblivion all the great achievements of the race believed to have been made in the image and likeness of the Creator, not knowing if he actually ruled Heaven or Hell.
CHAPTER I
Antarctica
The extreme and bitter cold of the Antarctic continent not discouraged biologist Nick Frost and his exploration team in an attempt to get samples in the depths of Lake Vostok. The drilling of the thick ancient ice layer about four kilometers thick had taken two months to complete, from damage to steel drills, which did most of the service and due to the intense cold that stiffened, snapped like glass , while the internal pressure of glacial walls of the immobilized depths. It was difficult and strenuous work also involved the removal of the cuttings and transport to the surface.
It was not the only one interested in the content that sampling capsules reveal after perhaps fifteen million years under the ice successively compacted over that time. Lake Vostok is located at coordinates 78 ° 27'00 "S 106 ° 52'12" E, possessing an area of two hundred and fifty kilometers long and forty kilometers wide shaped ellipse. It comprises an area fourteen thousand square kilometers with an average depth of five hundred meters and fully protected the Earth's atmosphere, the extensive layer of ice that covers it completely. A real time capsule.
After all this drilling work, it is still necessary that after collection of sedimentary material and biological there care to preserve the samples in a totally isolated environment sterile, contaminant that was not in any way...
Nick Frost worked for the Corporation for Biological Studies NOMAD, a private entity that had as its main mission to study biodiversity environments forgotten by time, so the difficulty of access to the total ignorance of existing places. At thirty, finished to complete, athletic without exaggeration, 1,96m tall, inheritance of his Viking ancestors liked to consider a new Viking times, therefore the blond and long hair usually hung from her shoulders at this particular time left them stuck in the shape of a long "ponytail", for greater mobility in that harsh environment. It was quite possible that at some point remember one of the many gods of Norse mythology in the sight of foreigners.
Descended from a family of researchers, his grandfather had been a "Iceman" whose main occupation was based on lead expeditions to the center of the North Pole and the countless times that there was, in one of them it was in some so remote that even today not you know the true whereabouts. For the same reason, the disappearance of the grandfather he had chosen to be an adventurer, with a little luck maybe not find the remains of his ancestor. I thought that possibility...
It was not uncommon that after the missing persons thaws in these environments reappeared in considerable preservation conditions to the point where they can be recognized and buried with dignity and his grandfather could be one of those people "lucky" for sure. I remembered the story of Ötzi, the mummy of a possible European inhabitant of the Copper Age with about five thousand three hundred years old and had been found in a reasonable state of preservation in a glacier near the Similaun mountain on the border of Austria with Italy.
It tells the history of paleontology, that when he died, wore rudimentary clothing to protect him from the cold, with three layers of clothes made of deer and goat skin, and a lined hood fiber from the bark of linden, typical tree in the hemisphere north. It was still surprising that these things could
happen and at the same time be found most often in a haphazard way, as was this particular case and true.
Nick was the curiosity of the facts to his father, a writer who despite not get much literary success, practically wrote for himself, his books addressed fundamental issues of human society, the mysteries of the world by uncovering and uncertainty if we are the First Race human on the Earth's surface, or just another cycle that repeats itself endlessly, a circle that is born, grows, thrives and is extinguished completely, or almost...
The love he had for the profession, biology, came through the mother who was also a biologist in the area of molecular genetics and also exercised the profession, but not as a researcher, gave himself up to the bureaucratic service after he realized that all his work It aimed only astronomical profits for their employers, and not necessarily the cure for the disease that for centuries still plagued humanity.
He sat on a nearby aluminum box where he was watching every movement around the ice drilling, resigned, realizing that another drill was breaking in the depths of that infernal ice. - Here we go again ... - said to the charge of drilling piling steel drills side of the drill. - It is too early to give up! - He forced a smile that had not, but he needed to animate your team that increasingly seemed exhausted. As quickly as he had forgotten the Iceman for a moment, and returned with him to thoughts.
It considered incredible that all the time Ötzi remained frozen human history had passed him without the bother. During this period Egypt became a power echoing through time to the present day extolling his great achievements and their personalities, enslaved Hebrew people and lost the battle to Moses, and said the holy scriptures and although it was not at all indeed, he knew that the stories told or written always has some basis, so no matter if the Red Sea had been opened for the passage of the slave or not people, the case was that the story persisted for thousands of years.
Greece had achieved glory days in the hands of Alexander of Macedon, Achilles, Helen and other personalities also passed by Aristotle, Socrates and Plato, among many that came to mind him as lights went out and lit fast, but just as others succumbed to time and other civilizations, Greece was no different from any of them. Rome ascended centuries later and formed a thousand-year empire, however, Ötzi was still asleep in frozen sleep in the Italian Alps without being noticed, while most of us just turned powder in that it was born, lived and died without leaving tangible traces , except those bound for destination account or wiles perpetuated their names in the history books.
Continued careful will slow and monotonous boring, but also knew it was the best technology available to them and the rush was the enemy not only of perfection as well as science, knew it ... He looked at the sky and could see the bright moon as a cheese Swiss looking at him, there was one of the things that pass by time and humanity without being disturbed. Because the Moon was created when a very young age a time schedule, recalled the story; He asked his father to arrange you a wider slice of tree trunk he could find and did not disappoint, in less than two weeks he was given a circular wooden slice with 1,20m in diameter and ten centimeters thick.
To everyone's amazement, no one had any idea to what it would do unless it was to make some sort of old vehicle still would need a couple for this and it was not the case. Possibly a table top for studies, but only he, the future biologist, had different plans for the strange and peculiar object, that would be your Time Calendar. After so long was still posted on the wall of his room at his parents' house in Drammen, near Oslo in Norway.
With all the care and talent he possessed at the time, was fifteen only mustered up thin and soft sandpaper and quietly began to polish one side, the one that seemed most appropriate to what he would do and had no hurry to leave so smooth, it was impossible to see any kind of ripple that was. He let his hand continuously walked and over again for that soft surface, I felt satisfaction that the fine dust slip through his fingers without any resistance.
Provided a place to put a huge slice of wood that was now completely polished and smooth, wiped with a damp cloth and then immediately waxed it with a mixture of animal wax whale oil and so that the wood stay darker and more visible concentric rings, had the desired effect without doubt.
- Dad, how old do you think this tree had before being overthrown? - I wondered if at least be close to the estimate of required time.
- From the size of this wood slice you both took the trouble to polish, I believe that at least two hundred years! - Smiled to see the enthusiasm of the child with that big piece of wood in the middle of the living room, on the coffee table. Occupied almost all free space. - But still I do not know what you want with it all! - Was curious and knew he did not reveal to him, at least not yet, it was not like you only show the result after it's done, that experiment would be no different.
- Well, it's not what I expected, but will have to do! - I said furrowing her eyebrows a little.
He waited almost two days for the oil to completely infiltrate the wood and were absorbed leaving only the dark tone that really pleased him. He went to the office where his father used to write, could have saved a few minutes if I had asked just what you were looking, but gave up work to look for himself, it was more than just finding what he wanted, was a holding unknown location and harsh, his father did not tolerate things got out of place, this learned to always leave everything as it had found. Finally there was the case with adhesive labels.
He sat close to his mother, Martha Frost, who enjoyed a scientific book with some relevance to him at the moment not interested, it was about botany, more precisely the naturalist Charles Darwin and anything on a ship called the Beagle which traveled around the world, only later recognize the real importance of such literature.
- Mother! Can I interrupt for a moment? - He did not wait for her to give consent and handed him a packet of labels with a black pen thick tip.
- Apparently I do not have much choice is not it? - She smiled at her son, was the one who had the courage to bring the world and still with some difficulty, but it seemed, the complications had been overcome. I thought that with so many diseases on Earth was almost a miracle that the human race was still alive. - What happens now? - I was as curious as the father of the young Nick Frost on the other side of the room watched in silence, while making some notes.
- I need you to write in some of these labels relevance of things that have happened in the past, let's say ... Five thousand years! Can it be like this! - His eyes glistened for what was then the anxiety to find out what are the historical revelations that his mother would make him. - I like your letter ... - he added. Much more than that, he wanted to preserve something of his mother for an indefinite time, if possible for eternity.
I looked at her askance recording in his memory all traces of the perfect face, pale and smooth, now had forty-five, a few wrinkles that once existed not begin to be present in the corners of the eyes and on the forehead as she wrote something on small labels he had given her, her arched eyebrows insinuating a radiant light face. I loved the mother of a very different way of how he loved his father, Eldar Frost in this particular case there was an imbalance of feelings, but love for her was serene and sweet, quiet and very tender. No less loved her father, but defiantly as both lived together became a mixture of dispute space and approach cautiously, like two males of a species delimiting their spaces.
That was their safe haven, the calm and the storm together in one place and he was the mediator of these two unruly and conflicting elements.
- How many do you need? - She smiled again realizing that took the candy from the mouth of a child.
- Maybe thirty? - Was not sure of the amount had not counted the rings inside the wooden buckler, but find a way to fit the maximum of events that could.
- Let's see ... Five thousand years ago, is not it? - Gained time to think about historical events of the human race. He did not realize that her husband had come close in the hope of being invited to participate in the game, for some rea
son, he felt attracted to that experiment.
- Can I participate? - She said in a low voice, fearing be deleted.
- Of course my love! Sit down here and help us tell the story of the human race through the ages! - Martha always came out in his defense. They laughed once more have found something in common to do.
- The birth of Christ! This may be the first? - Was the father who took the joke.
- Yes you can! And no need to ask, let's just write the labels! - Nick Frost would make the best and most beautiful time clock that would never see in their lives.
- The siege of Troy! We can take advantage and put the estimated dates, is not it a good idea, Nick? - The mother also begins to have fun with all that movement.
- Yes, Yes! The story of Helen and Paris. This will be even better than I had planned! - Took the first labels and aligned on wood without even paste them.
- Alexander the Great and conquer the known world! 356 BC - said the visibly excited father.
- Second World War! 1945! - Nick remembered best of newer things and that were required in the classroom.
- The Crusades! 1100 A.D.! - Again the father was a suggestion, the mother was more focused on doing a good letter writing labels.
- The Great Discoveries, Century XIV! - Nick smiled satisfactorily, always wanted to be a browser, those well adventurers. Perhaps a pirate...
- Fire of Rome, Nero! 68 A.D. - Martha wrote before any of them could say anything and looked at them severely.
- My turn! - Then he smiled then to everyone's satisfaction. - The Black Death in the fourteenth century! - I was a biologist and had to leave something of their knowledge that child labor.
