Dienas m\u0113r\u0137is: 1179 v\u0101rdi<\/a>. Rakst\u012bts: 1185<\/b>.<\/p>\n

- T\u012brs, - Antonio klan\u012bj\u0101s, skatoties man uz pieres.<\/p>\n

Es ar pirkstiem piesk\u0101ruies savai sausajai \u0101dai. T\u0101 bija nedaudz izstiepta. Es piesk\u0101ros br\u016bcei, un \u0101da mazliet atdal\u012bj\u0101s, bet tas nes\u0101p\u0113ja.<\/p>\n

Es piec\u0113los, pieg\u0101ju pie spogu\u013ca pie sienas un paskat\u012bjos. Patie\u0161\u0101m. T\u012brs. Tikai mans zods bija ar kaut ko notraip\u012bts.<\/p>\n

Es berz\u0113ju zodu, bet tas neatt\u012br\u012bj\u0101s.<\/p>\n

- Vi\u0146am nevajadz\u0113tu uzkopt. - teica Naoki. - T\u0101 tas bija ar\u012b agr\u0101k.<\/p>\n

Es p\u0101rtraucu noslauc\u012bt zodu un, noslauc\u012bjis rokas, iemetu mitro un asu smar\u017eu saturo\u0161o dr\u0101nu tuv\u0113j\u0101 atkritumu spain\u012b.<\/p>\n

- Aimee? - ierosin\u0101ja Antonio.<\/p>\n

- Ejam,\" es teicu.<\/p>\n

- Braucam,\" Stouns atk\u0101rtoja sarkastiski.<\/p>\n

\"Kret\u012bni.\"<\/p>\n

* * *
\nM\u0113s bij\u0101m ce\u013c\u0101 uz Bab\u010du kara\u013ca z\u0101li, - teica Antonio. Es \u012bsti nezin\u0101ju, kas ir Bab\u010du karalis un ko sagaid\u012bt, bet m\u0113s dev\u0101mies t\u0101 virzien\u0101.<\/p>\n

Es, tum\u0161mataina meitene, kuru, izr\u0101d\u0101s, sauc Acorn, mans atrastais ierocis un mans d\u012bvaini tuvs draugs Naoki Taka\u0161i... Lai k\u0101 vi\u0146u ar\u012b sauc, \u012bsi sakot, D\u017eo, kur\u0161 ir labs ierocis un slikts sarunu biedrs. Un Antonio, t\u0113rptais t\u0113ls no YYYY bandas. No bandas, par kuru man teica, ka es to zinu, bet par kuru neko nezinu.<\/p>\n

\"Vair\u0101k jaut\u0101jumu nek\u0101 atbil\u017eu...\"<\/p>\n

- Antonio, k\u0101p\u0113c man tev uztic\u0113ties? - es vi\u0146am jaut\u0101ju, kad m\u0113s ar liftu no medic\u012bnas stacijas nok\u0101p\u0101m uz k\u0101du st\u0101vu pazem\u0113. Vai uz zemes.<\/p>\n

Antonio paskat\u012bj\u0101s uz mani. Mazais krist\u0101ls uz vi\u0146a kakla uz mirkli za\u013cg\u0101ja.<\/p>\n

\"Kas ir \u0161is krist\u0101ls?\"<\/p>\n

- K\u0101p\u0113c gan jums to nedar\u012bt? - vi\u0146\u0161 jaut\u0101ja. - Es izgl\u0101bju tavu dz\u012bv\u012bbu.<\/p>\n

- Vi\u0146\u0161 mani izgl\u0101ba... aizb\u0113got, - klusi iesprauc\u0101s Naoki no manas plaukstas. \u0160is gul\u0113ja man\u0101 plaukst\u0101, jo es negrib\u0113ju to atkal likt nezin\u0101m\u0101 viet\u0101 - un, ja kaut kas notiktu... Nu, vismaz tas b\u016btu pa rokai. Vai dr\u012bz\u0101k man\u0101 plaukst\u0101.<\/p>\n

- No k\u0101? - Es uzc\u0113lu uzacu. Sapratu, ka tie bija pils\u0113tas autom\u0101ti, kurus biju redz\u0113jis zoolo\u0123iskaj\u0101 d\u0101rz\u0101, un, iesp\u0113jams, v\u0113l k\u0101di cilv\u0113ki, kas st\u0101v\u0113ja aiz vi\u0146iem, bet man nebija ne jausmas, kas tie bija.<\/p>\n

- Protams, no Pils\u0113tas sardzes. Galu gal\u0101... Vi\u0146a ta\u010du mekl\u0113ja tevi, vai ne? - Antonio pac\u0113la uzacis.<\/p>\n

- Mmm, es dom\u0101ju, varb\u016bt...<\/p>\n

\"Nobijies cilv\u0113ks! Gabrielle \u0101tr\u0101k!\"<\/p>\n

- Pala, j\u0101! Tu dro\u0161i vien esi man sekojis, - es \u0101tri piebildu, atceroties savu sastap\u0161anos ar cilv\u0113ku grupu pie b\u0101ra, - mani paman\u012bja cilv\u0113ku grupa pie b\u0101ra... Kam\u0113r es dom\u0101ju, vai sekot tev vai n\u0113.<\/p>\n

- Redzi, es tev teicu, ka tev vajadz\u0113tu vair\u0101k uztic\u0113ties man, - Antonio pasmaid\u012bja.<\/p>\n

Es nezinu, k\u0101p\u0113c, bet es vi\u0146am uztic\u0113jos vair\u0101k. Neesmu p\u0101rliecin\u0101ta, jo neko nezin\u0101ju par vi\u0146u, vi\u0146a pag\u0101tni un to, ar ko biju saist\u012bta... Bet kaut k\u0101du iemeslu d\u0113\u013c mana uztic\u012bba vi\u0146am pieauga.<\/p>\n

Lifts apst\u0101j\u0101s, nop\u016bt\u0101s, un t\u0101 durvis klusi atv\u0113r\u0101s. Antonio izk\u0101pa no kab\u012bnes, un es vi\u0146am sekoju. M\u0113s izk\u0101p\u0101m cit\u0101 balt\u0101 tunel\u012b. Tikai \u0161is bija daudz plat\u0101ks, liel\u0101ks nek\u0101 koridori, pa kuriem m\u0113s g\u0101j\u0101m. Tune\u013ca vid\u016b bija tuk\u0161as sliedes.<\/p>\n

\"Kaut k\u0101ds labirints.\"<\/p>\n

- Ko tagad? - jaut\u0101ju, sekojot Antonio.<\/p>\n

- Tagad m\u0113s gaid\u0101m,\" vi\u0146\u0161 atbild\u0113ja, nospie\u017eot za\u013co apa\u013co pogu uz platformas pie slied\u0113m.<\/p>\n

Nepaiet\u0113ja ne p\u0101ris sekundes, un es p\u0113k\u0161\u0146i sadzird\u0113ju svilpienu, un no viena tune\u013ca gala pa slied\u0113m nobrauca neliels vienviet\u012bgs vagons bez redzama dzin\u0113ja vai kaut k\u0101 taml\u012bdz\u012bga.<\/p>\n

- Ak, \u0101tr\u0101k, nek\u0101 es gaid\u012bju! - Antonio p\u0101rsteigts sm\u0113j\u0101s.<\/p>\n

Kad tuk\u0161ais vagons apst\u0101j\u0101s, m\u0113s iek\u0101p\u0101m taj\u0101, un, pat nepajaut\u0101jot, kur v\u0113lamies braukt, vagons aizv\u0113ra durvis un s\u0101ka l\u0113ni un \u0101tri svilpot pa tuneli atpaka\u013c uz to vietu, no kurienes tas atn\u0101ca.<\/p>\n

- Kurp m\u0113s dodamies? - es jaut\u0101ju Antonio, kad m\u0113s dev\u0101mies prom.<\/p>\n

Antonio br\u012bdi klus\u0113ja.<\/p>\n

- Nu, es jau teicu - Babku karalim. Vai tava atmi\u0146a ir tik slikta?<\/p>\n

- N\u0113... - es klusu samulsu.<\/p>\n

- L\u016bk, tas ir. Starp citu, vai \u0161ie ir visi j\u016bsu jaut\u0101jumi?<\/p>\n

- Ak, n\u0113! - Es pam\u0101ju ar rok\u0101m. Tie noteikti nebija visi jaut\u0101jumi, kas man bija.<\/p>\n

* * *<\/p>\n

Kad ar metro vilcienu dev\u0101mies uz YYY pils\u0113tas labo galu, Antonio mums past\u0101st\u012bja, ka vi\u0146\u0161 bijis viens no vair\u0101kiem Babku kara\u013ca padotajiem, kas atbild\u0113ja par Kau\u0146as pils\u0113tu un ar to saist\u012btajiem uzdevumiem. Kop\u0101 ar Elmu un v\u0113l da\u017eiem citiem cilv\u0113kiem vi\u0146\u0161 bija pak\u013cauts karalim un dar\u012bja visu, kas bija nepiecie\u0161ams. K\u0101 slepens a\u0123ents, vi\u0146\u0161 man st\u0101st\u012bja.<\/p>\n

Vi\u0146\u0161 jau vair\u0101k nek\u0101 desmit gadus str\u0101d\u0101 YYY Gang uz\u0146\u0113mum\u0101, kop\u0161 vi\u0146\u0161 pabeidza instit\u016btu pils\u0113t\u0101 un nol\u0113ma, ka vi\u0146a v\u0113rt\u012bbas vi\u0146am nav pa pr\u0101tam.<\/p>\n

Antonio man past\u0101st\u012bja, ka YYY Gang paties\u012bb\u0101 nemaz nebija Gang - tas bija tikai vecs nosaukums. T\u0101 dr\u012bz\u0101k atg\u0101din\u0101ja milzu korpor\u0101ciju ar desmitiem t\u016bksto\u0161u \"darbinieku\" vai iedz\u012bvot\u0101ju, vai ar\u012b mikrovalsti valst\u012b.<\/p>\n

Atrodoties aptuveni 70 kilometru att\u0101lum\u0101 no Kau\u0146as lielpils\u0113tas, no pa\u0161iem pamatiem uzcelt\u0101 pils\u0113ti\u0146\u0101, ko viet\u0113jie iedz\u012bvot\u0101ji d\u0113v\u0113 vienk\u0101r\u0161i par pils\u0113tu jeb YYY pils\u0113tu, vi\u0146a \u0161eit sagatavoja un izgatavoja visu ar tualet\u0113m saist\u012bto apr\u012bkojumu un preces.<\/p>\n

Antonio neizskat\u012bj\u0101s p\u0101r\u0101k apmierin\u0101ts ar bandas sniegumu, ta\u010du, p\u0113c vi\u0146a v\u0101rdiem, jebkas ir uzman\u012bbas v\u0113rts, ja korpor\u0101cijai, kas to ra\u017eo, ir praktisks monopols vis\u0101 pasaul\u0113.<\/p>\n

Uz jaut\u0101jumu, k\u0101p\u0113c bandai ir tik d\u012bvains nosaukums, Antonio nesp\u0113ja atbild\u0113t. Vi\u0146\u0161 tikai min\u0113ja jokojo\u0161u m\u012btu, ka t\u0101 nosaukta p\u0113c Babkas kara\u013ca, kur\u0161 s\u0113\u017eot uz tualetes, klepojot, \u016bdens \u0161\u013cakstoties uz dibena un lecot gais\u0101, kliedzot \"yyy\". Un, protams, vi\u0146\u0161 br\u012bdin\u0101ja Babku karali nemin\u0113t \u0161o teoriju.<\/p>\n

Antonio veiksm\u012bgi ignor\u0113ja jaut\u0101jumus par manu pag\u0101tni vai ar\u012b nov\u0113rsa tos, sakot, ka citi man par to past\u0101st\u012bs vair\u0101k. Tom\u0113r vi\u0146\u0161 man past\u0101st\u012bja, ka es reiz biju bandas YYY biedrs, atbild\u012bgs par k\u0101du slepenu izmekl\u0113\u0161anu, par kuru vi\u0146\u0161 vairs nevar run\u0101t un par kuru vi\u0146\u0161 pats nekad neko daudz nezin\u0101ja. Pils\u0113tas padomei nepatika tas, ko es uzzin\u0101ju, t\u0101p\u0113c vi\u0146i at\u0146\u0113ma man atmi\u0146u, cerot to izmantot, un iemeta mani Ar\u0113n\u0101, lai to pabeigtu. Jautr\u012bbas labad. Fe.<\/p>\n

Naoki, \u0161\u0137iet, ir p\u0101rsteigts par manu naid\u012bgumu pret Padomi. Un ne velti, ja t\u0101 padom\u0101, - vi\u0146a ir t\u0101, kas vi\u0146u iest\u016bma zem Ar\u0113nas. Nu, libi.<\/p>\n

* * *<\/p>\n

- Esam ieradu\u0161ies, - Antonio lakoniski pazi\u0146oja, kad m\u0113s izk\u0101p\u0101m no lifta, kas izbrauca no pazemes vilcienu stacijas, kas veda cauri \u0161\u0137ietami bezgal\u012bgajam debesskr\u0101pim.<\/p>\n

M\u0113s st\u0101v\u0113j\u0101m pie liel\u0101m balt\u0101m un zelt\u012bt\u0101m durv\u012bm pla\u0161\u0101k\u0101 koridor\u0101 nek\u0101 citi. Tas bija tikpat tuk\u0161s, un taj\u0101 nebija ne cilv\u0113ku, ne lietu. Pat logu nebija. Tikai bezgal\u012bgi balts.<\/p>\n

- Beidzot: \u0161is baltais tuk\u0161ums mani tracina, - es m\u0101jin\u0101ju ar galvu.<\/p>\n

Antonio, \u0161\u0137iet, saprata, pagriez\u0101s pret durv\u012bm un piesk\u0101r\u0101s savam amuletam. P\u0113c br\u012b\u017ea durvis atv\u0113r\u0101s.<\/p>\n

\"Vau. Grezni.\"<\/p>\n

...milz\u012bg\u0101 z\u0101l\u0113 ar zelt\u012bt\u0101m skulpt\u016br\u0101m, \u016bdens str\u016bklu pie sien\u0101m, milz\u012bgiem logiem uz \u0101ru un milz\u012bgu galdu z\u0101les gal\u0101.<\/p>\n

Pie t\u0101s, sprie\u017eot p\u0113c kr\u0113slu skaita, jau bija aps\u0113du\u0161ies vair\u0101ki cilv\u0113ki no aptuveni piecdesmit. Un \u0161\u0137ita, ka vi\u0146i m\u016bs gaida.<\/p>\n

Antonio bez v\u0101rdiem pam\u0101ja ar galvu, un m\u0113s dev\u0101mies t\u0101l\u0101k.<\/p>\n

- Kas, pie velna, ir \u0161\u012b vieta? - Naoki murmin\u0101ja plaukst\u0101.<\/p>\n

Bet es vi\u0146am neatbild\u0113ju un t\u0101 viet\u0101 tikai maigi gl\u0101st\u012bju vi\u0146a pirkstus, stingr\u0101k satverot. Tam nevajadz\u0113ja izkrist no manas rokas. Lai gan tas var\u0113tu b\u016bt bijis d\u012bvaini, ka Akmens bija atn\u0101cis ar to vien\u0101 plaukst\u0101. \u012apa\u0161i t\u0101d\u0101 telp\u0101 k\u0101 \u0161\u012b.<\/p>\n

\"Nu, bet Antonio joproj\u0101m ir ar savu \u0123it\u0101ru, taisni no ra\u0137etes - man nav bijusi iesp\u0113ja to likt citur...\"<\/p>\n

Pie galda, visredzam\u0101kaj\u0101 viet\u0101, m\u016bsu priek\u0161\u0101 s\u0113d\u0113ja kails v\u012brietis ar st\u016brainu seju un pavisam \u012bsu da\u017eu dienu b\u0101rdu. Vi\u0146\u0161 bija t\u0113rpies ko\u0161i sarkan\u0101, cie\u0161i piegulo\u0161\u0101 uzvalk\u0101, it k\u0101 tikko b\u016btu izk\u0101pis no peldbaseina, izl\u0113cis ar izpletni vai dar\u012bjis kaut ko t\u0101du, kas prasa ergonomiku. Vi\u0146\u0161 bija saloc\u012bjis rokas un v\u0113roja, k\u0101 m\u0113s ien\u0101kam.<\/p>\n

Vi\u0146am pa kreisi s\u0113d\u0113ja divas meitenes: Elms t\u0101d\u0101 pa\u0161\u0101 balt\u0101 uzvalk\u0101, bet \u0161oreiz ar k\u0101du neskaidru lielgabalu aiz muguras. Un meitene, kuru es neatpazinu, blond\u012bne ar gariem matiem un neizteiksm\u012bgu smaili izteiktu seju, un blakus vi\u0146ai - gandr\u012bz vai vi\u0146as augum\u0101 - liels papl\u0101te.<\/p>\n

Otr\u0101 galda pus\u0113 s\u0113d\u0113ja viens v\u012brietis - meln\u0101dains, \u012bsspalvains un izskat\u012bj\u0101s t\u0101, it k\u0101 n\u0101ktu un sadurtu cilv\u0113kiem galvas. Paties\u012bb\u0101 vi\u0146\u0161 \u012bpa\u0161i neat\u0161\u0137\u012br\u0101s no plik\u0101 l\u012bdera, iz\u0146emot to, ka vi\u0146a galva nebija nosk\u016bta plika.<\/p>\n

\"Vi\u0146\u0161 nedaudz atg\u0101dina Ovidiju no Ar\u0113nas.\"<\/p>\n

M\u0113s tuvoj\u0101mies galdam un apst\u0101j\u0101mies da\u017eus so\u013cus no t\u0101. M\u0113s klus\u012bb\u0101 skat\u012bj\u0101mies viens uz otru, un uz br\u012bdi es s\u0101ku justies diezgan ne\u0113rti.<\/p>\n

- Kas par mu\u013c\u0137u bari\u0146u, - nopriec\u0101j\u0101s Stouns, kuram ac\u012bmredzami bija vienalga, ko vi\u0146\u0161 saka un ko par vi\u0146u dom\u0101 citi, tostarp es.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
