Augment (teaser) Look for Augment in spring of 2010

       "What's he doing Colonel?"
       "It looks like he is making a depth change, probably near test depth. Amazing, almost eleven hundred meters."
       " I'm overjoyed your impressed Colonel. Thomas are we going to be able to reach him?"
Thomas smiled. "As stated earlier. Distance or depth will not be an obstacle.      
       "For your sake I hope so." Stone smiled back.

        "Sir passing through seven five zero zero meters."
         "Excellent. Engineer how are the stress sensors?"
         "Sir the sensors report even stress through out the pressure hull."
         "Well done. Report any changes. Officer of the deck make your depth nine zero zero zero meters."
       
          "He's still diving?"
          "Just passing through seven thousand five hundred meters."
          "Good." Stone chuckled. 'Tell me when he levels out."

           "Approaching one zero zero zero zero meters."
           'That's a lot of zeros. Level out at one zero five zero zero."
           "Aye Captain."

            "He leveled off, holding at just under eleven hundred meters."
            "Excellent. Stand by Thomas."

             "Engineer. board still green?"
            " Board still green. Captain."

            " Alright Thomas, hit that fucker."

A klaxon rang out startling all those in control. The Captain roared. "Report."
The weapons officer responded. "We got radiation alarms going off all over in the missile bay."
            "Alarms? Has the pressure hull been brea...."
There was a flash of unearthly white. And a billionth of a second later the Zheng He ceased to be.

            "Holy Shit. We are picking up a massive undersea detonation in the megaton range at the Zheng He's last reported position." Phones and alarms began to go off all over the control room.
             "Fuck me. That's the Joint Chiefs." Picking up the phone the Colonel responded. "Yes Sir. I have it on my screen's now. No, does not appear to be accidental launch, much too deep. What caused it? I have no idea,some catastrophic failure. What Sir? Yes he's standing right here." The Colonel handed the phone to Stone. "Sir, it is the Vice President for you."
Stone took the receiver and paused for two heartbeats. "Stone here. I see, why yes, I would love to meet at the earliest opportunity. Not at all Mr. Vice President. Thank you Mr. Vice President." Stone hung up the phone.
The Colonel looked stunned. "That was you? How?"
               'That is a need to know issue Colonel." Stone said softly.  "Come Thomas we have the Lord's work elsewhere." The two left without looking back.
