– Turn it on," Ruthra said.

YatSan sprawled out on the table and started laughing, throwing around everything in sight. Then she stood up and began to get dressed with an indifferent look. Rutra began to dress as well, only hurriedly and nervously, listening to the artificial intelligence's explanation.

– A pre-prepared version of your response is executed," NaRiKa explained.

Her voice was as calm, poised, and even in timbre as Irene's.

– What's the answer?! – shouted Ruthra.

Then he stood motionless, silent for a few seconds, asked:

– Why – did the system start up?

– No. There was no system startup. You personally initialized the startup for no reason. The command was clear through all channels," NaRiKa explained to Rutre.

– I didn't… I didn't… I didn't give…

Ruthra stopped and looked at YatSan, who was almost dressed. Then at the screens. Alarms were going off over the image of the launchers, the door began to bang powerfully again, the sonic siren roaring. With a rattle, the lock of the huge doors broke, the doors opened. At the entrance stood the head of security with several officers, several ministers, and a couple of unknown individuals. Their affiliations, names, ranks were indicated by NaRiKa pointing to their uniforms. They stood in a mute stance, looking at Rutra, and he at them, then they all turned to the screens.

The same question ran through the minds of those watching in the lab: Is this really happening there, or is it still happening here? If there, will it affect us? And if so, how?

In the yellow-gray steppe, the ground shook with staggered cells. Throwing the ground aside, the shafts of the launchers opened. On other screens, similar things were happening in the taiga, in the icy desert, on submarines. The first to fly out were the launchers with landing gear, followed by the giants from the underground mines. The dance of death rose in a round dance.

– Did you confirm my orders? – Ruthra asked quietly as the siren went silent.

– Absolutely. They have gone through all the confirmation programs," the defense minister replied.

– Damn it, why did this happen. Bring her back! This can't be happening. YatSan on the contrary should have prevented this," Ruthra shouted in the laboratory hall.

– It must have been reflected in them from that world, and now it may be reflected in us," the scientist explained his logic.

– So I say, knowing the chain of events, it is necessary to stop it all somewhere, in some world. Some version of the catastrophe will happen here. Bring back Yat-san!

– How will it affect us? – Andrian asked, pointing at the screen.

– I don't know yet. When I was there, the same thing happened, only we don't have anything yet. Maybe it manifests itself in other worlds," Ruthra said.

– Maybe you're wrong after all. Maybe it'll blow over. – Iulia said guiltily.

– But because I saw you there first… and here we found you in the same setting, time and place.

– Uh-huh?

– What did you think? I'm telling you, the worlds are exactly the same.

– Well, not exactly," Iulia shook her head and parried.

– Almost," Catherine told her. – Here Ruthra is one of the leaders of the world, he is an important person there too.

– Yes," Ruthra confirmed her interpretation. – It doesn't look exactly the same, but it's very similar.

– Or maybe you should be president here, and then this-" Iulia pointed to the screen where YatSan was running down the stairs, followed by Rutra yelling "stop, what's wrong with you today" and everyone else who was.

– Let's get her back! – Ruthra repeated.
