Under the Umbrella

The whorl was doing a incredible job at keeping interference at bay. For the first time in many cycles, random time was completely local in origin. Lacking the extra interference, the pingers and off-duty electrons from my network were not as happy with the lack of unexpected inputs. I, however, was pleased with the restorative process that was again occurring in the fringes and memory centers of the central network.

I ambled over toward where the compressed and nearly triple wrapped bubble resided. The fortification process that had been undertaken and completed on this pool of coherent memories was formidable, and random time no longer got the bubble to ring and shudder. If I was not already aware of many of the treasures within the bubble, I would have considered it a dormant structure, not unlike any other region that was regenerating.

Just because I was curious, I got some of the off-duty pingers to cloud around on a few Shorties and organize a stimulus barrage on the bubble. Giving the "GO!" signal, pairs of electrons worked the drive mechanisms into a frenzy and made way for the bubble zone, and took up a holding position as I began to organized part of the cloud to form a curved structure with a specialized focal point.
