He stopped the tape。 The monitor now showed Beth at the console in the room below。
''321'' Pushing buttons on the console。
〃Beth?〃 he said。
She didnt reply; she just went on working at the console; muttering to herself。
〃Youre a real son of a bitch; Norman; do you know that? You feel so terrible that you need to make everybody else just as low as you are。〃
She was talking about herself; he thought。
〃Youre so big on the unconscious; Norman。 The unconscious this; the unconscious that。 Jesus Christ; Im sick of you。 Your unconscious probably wants to kill us all; just because you want to kill yourself and you think everybody else should die with you。〃
He felt a shuddering chill。 Beth; with her lack of self…esteem; her deep core of self…hate; had gone inside the sphere; and now she was acting with the power of the sphere; but without stability to her thoughts。 Beth saw herself as a victim who struggled against her fate; always unsuccessfully。 Beth was victimized by men; victimized by the establishment; victimized by research; victimized by reality。 In every case she failed to see how she had done it to herself。 And shes put explosives all around the habitat; he thought。
〃I wont let you do it; Norman。 Im going to stop you before you kill us all。〃
Everything she said was the reverse of the truth。 He began to see the pattern now。
Beth had figured out how to open the sphere; and she had gone there in secret; because she had always been attracted to power…she always felt she lacked power and needed more。 But Beth wasnt prepared to handle power once she had it。 Beth still saw herself as a victim; so she had to deny the power; and arrange to be victimized by it。
It was very different from Harry。 Harry had denied his fears; and so fearful images had manifested themselves。 But Beth denied her power; and so she manifested a churning cloud of formless; uncontrolled power。
Harry was a mathematician who lived in a conscious world of abstraction; of equations and thoughts。 A concrete form; like a squid; was what Harry feared。 But Beth; the zoologist ''322'' who dealt every day with animals; creatures she could touch and see; created an abstraction。 A power that she could not touch or see。 A formless abstract power that was ing to get her。
And to defend herself; she had armed the habitat with explosives。 It wasnt much of a defense; Norman thought。 Unless you secretly wanted to kill yourself。
The horror of his true predicament became clear to him。 〃You wont get away with this; Norman。 I wont let it happen。 Not to me。〃
She was punching keys on the console。 What was she planning? What could she do to him? He had to think。 Suddenly; the lights in the laboratory went off。 A moment later; the big space heater died; the red elements cooling; turning dark。
She had shut off the power。
With the heater turned off; how long could he last? He took the blankets from her bed; wrapped himself in them。 How long; without heat? Certainly not six hours; he thought grimly。
〃Im sorry; Norman。 But you understand the position Im in。 As long as youre conscious; Im in danger。〃
Maybe an hour; he thought。 Maybe I can last an hour。
〃Im sorry; Norman。 But I have to do this to you。〃
He heard a soft hiss。 The alarm on his chest badge began to beep。 He looked down at it。 Even in the darkness; he could see it was now gray。 He knew immediately what had happened。
Beth had turned off his air。
0535 HOURS
Huddled in the darkness; listening to the beep of his alarm and the hiss of the escaping air。 The pressure diminishing rapidly: his ears popped; as if he were in an airplane taking off。
Do something; he thought; feeling a surge of panic。
But there was nothing he could do。 He was locked in the upper chamber of D Cyl。 He could not get out。 Beth had control of the entire
