you see to yourself.”
    “Unfortunately, I can’t make that promise.”
    “Why not?”
    “The High Leaders of all the species that make up the Alliance will be watching as I do it.”
    Kyle was shocked at the revelation. What was so important about this alien? Legune shook her head, “Why would they, or you, want to see what’s in my mind. I don’t think I know anything that’s important.”
    “I humbly ask for your forgiveness but I think there is something there that needs to be seen. Will you allow me to look?”
    “Will it improve your chances of defeating them?”
    “I won’t know until I look.”
    Legune sighed, “Go ahead. Just forgive me for my flippant way of seeing the universe.”
    Hensel smiled, “If you will press the button under the right arm of your chair, it will recline so you will be more comfortable while I do this.” Legune felt under the chair arm and felt the small button. She pressed it and her chair folded back into a recliner. She smiled and Hensel said, “Let’s begin.” Kyle felt his mind drawn into the woman’s thoughts and he immediately saw the High Rulers from the Goran, Welken, Myot, Johan, and Audon were also there watching. Legune closed her eyes and Hensel went deep into her subconscious and looked at the last encounter with the Feeder. Kyle watched Hensel move into that memory and his eyes flew wide open in shock.

    Legune could see the minds of the Alliance Leaders in her mind following Hensel as he went into the deepest core of her mind. She couldn’t see what he was examining but she could sense the other Leaders’ surprise and then shock at what he uncovered. Something must be there that she knew nothing about. What could it possibly be? Then she saw circles start appearing in her mind like ripples expanding from a stone thrown in a pond and she began losing consciousness. The last things she heard was: “HENSEL!”
    “Please withhold your comments until we have exited Miss Legune’s mind!” Then there was only darkness.

    Legune could hear the air vent blowing as she began waking up. She struggled to consciousness and eventually opened her eyes. Hensel saw she was awake and smiled, “I am going to link Miss Legune in to our conversation.” She suddenly heard the thoughts of the Alliance Leaders.
    “Is that a good idea?”
    She saw it was the Welken Royal that made the comment. “It doesn’t matter; she deserves to hear us for her bravery in allowing us in her mind.”
    “If you say so.”
    “Are we not past secrets by now?”
    The Welken shook his head, “Thank you for your bravery, Miss Legune.”
    “How do you see what I did as being brave?”
    Hensel smiled, “Allowing anyone into your mind to see all that’s there is extremely brave. I doubt many in this conference would allow it.” Hensel looked at the Goran, “You wanted to speak.”
    “How did you know about this?”
    “I have my ways, High Leader. However, now we know.”
    “What are you going to do about this?”
    “I will discuss this with you at this time in three days. Please think about what you’ve seen and come up with some recommendations on what you think we should do.” The Link ended and Hensel looked at Legune, “I want you to come back when we meet to discuss what we’ve seen. I do ask that no one tell you what we saw until that meeting.”
    Amelee nodded, “I’ll keep it to myself.”
    “You will not be the one that leaves with Miss Legune, Admiral.”
    “What?”
    “She will go with Kyle and stay with him until the meeting.”
    “WHAT!?”
    Hensel looked at Kyle, “I don’t want Miss Legune near anyone in our military until the meeting takes place. Please tell me who in here meets that qualification?”
    Kyle looked around and shook his head, “I’m a loner! She would just get in the way.”
    “Even so, you will do as I request, won’t you.”
    Kyle looked at Kyley, then Amelee, and back to Hensel, “I’m a single man and she’s
