(After Doug listens to the recordings made during the big fight in chapter 12...)
Well, now I knew their names. Celia. Linna. (Or maybe "Lynne",spelled English and pronounced Japanese.) Pris. (I knew a Pris,once, an android. She was a sweet kid, before that arms smugglerkilled her.) And the last one. I wasn't sure how to spell it,in either kana or Roman letters -- Naynay? Neinei? Somethinglike that. Probably a nickname of some sort -- maybe she alwaysvoted "no" at their meetings. Or maybe she liked horses --Neigh-Neigh?Nah. That was too strange, even for me.It was the most distinctive of the four names. If I could havejust settled on a spelling, I might have tried a search for herin the online telecomm directory for MegaTokyo. Just in case itwasn't a nickname. But that seemed far too unlikely.

'Cause it ain't done yet.
But when it is, it'll be a hell of a teaser for chapter 14.
