DusterBoy Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Re: Into the Past With Strangers Interesting epilogue, csyphrett. I assume that Under-Sgt Soshi Cygnia is not human and that the Conglomerate is an alien society? But Bubba is right. How does this tie into the rest of the story?

Yansuf Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Re: Into the Past With Strangers Clearly, the orb is (part of?) the probe. It actuated as a result of what was done to it in the story. So is the sequel an "Invasion of Earth" story? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csyphrett Posted October 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Re: Into the Past With Strangers you guys are all exactly right. I am going to try to knock out some solo stories for a bit since I am still putting together an agency for Ben's magazine. I'm hoping to have five or six shorter stories put down before I start on Teen Strangers and The Invasion line. CES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The senior survivor of the crew was the bosun, as I recall. You are exactly right. When they resurrected the ship, they brought back a little more than steel from the sea.

Yansuf Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Re: Into the Past With Strangers Having just read the story again, I have a question. Didn't Dr. Walkur take a pistol from the sentry when she escaped down river? What happened to it? In later chapter she didn't have it.

Yansuf Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Re: Into the Past With Strangers She switched the luger for the two Colts she used on the guards at the airport, and took to Antartica. CES She took the guard's weapon (and belt and pants) at the end of chapter 5. In chapter 13: "Haven stuffed the thing back in the bag. She looked up. They knew where she was. Lucky thing they couldn't hover like an autogyro. Otherwise, they would drop down on top of her like that. Haven ran with careful steps. It was too easy to turn an ankle in the undergrowth. She didn't want that on top of everything else. The plane circled overhead, trying to pinpoint her in the trees. Bullets cut loose as men pointed weapons from an open hatch. The projectiles ripped leaves and wood as they ran to one side of the running archaeologist. Haven wished she had a gun to shoot back with. She had a fair hand with a hunting rifle. Her father had taught her that much." Now this could mean she didn't think the pistol would be effective, but it is ambiguous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csyphrett Posted October 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 Re: Into the Past With Strangers You're right about that, Yansuf. I think I missed stating reasons there. I'm sorry about that. CES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
