    “As the taxi entered the intersection, the two drivers in the attorney general’s entourage slammed on the brakes. Both Suburbans fishtailed out of control. Ducking in the back seat, Blake could smell the burning rubber from tires skidding on the asphalt and hear the pedestrians screaming and car horns sounding off in rebuke.”

    Brian Van Norman
    “You realize, of course, the Omegans nearly lost this Earth. They
    had everything yet let it disintegrate through their rampant carelessness.
    Two hundred years past they possessed the rudimentary beginnings
    of the NET to bring them together. They called it the Internet.
    Yet they treated it like a toy, tribalized themselves, and thus nearly lost
    the planet.
    “Nationalist wars, self serving ideologies, competing religions . . .
    more significant, though not to the Omegans, was climate change
    itself, which mattered more than any petty dogma, but they ignored
    it until too late. It has ultimately determined our lives, managed now
    by the CORPORATE, using the only possible tools to survive. There
    were billions of Humans then. There is now but a fraction of that:
    some 300 million we know in the MEGS and, of course, the uncounted
    MASSes.”

    “Can you stand on your legs?” Sydelle Pulaski asked. “Can you walk at all?”

    People never asked Chris those questions; they whispered them to his parents behind his back. “N-n-no. Why?”

    “What better disguise for a thief or a murderer than a wheelchair, the perfect alibi.”

    Chris enjoyed being taken for the criminal type. Now they really were friends.”
