Dark Energy: The Mortal Fracture
CHAPTER TWO: NOT QUITE LEGAL, BUT INTERESTING Arctic – Winter 2010 Racing across the Arctic tundra the doctors clung to the snowmobile as shards of razor sharp ice crystals assaulted their bodies. The engine of the snowmobile growled and fought against the load that it carried and the frigidness of the air. The lights from the team’s base camp appeared like dawn on the horizon. It was the only visible light for miles. In fact, the closest city, Barrow, Alaska, was nearly fifty miles to the west. The two didn’t try to talk to one another, as the interference from the snowstorm and the noise from the snowmobile made it impossible to hear anything even on headsets at this point. Instinctively, however, they were communicating about what steps needed to be taken as soon as they reached the camp. Wasi knew he needed to set up an exam room, gather medical equipment, and get the bear moved inside, while Sade knew that she needed to set up the sonogram, gather her supplies, and keep the rest of the team away from what they were doing.

Dark Energy: The Mortal Fracture
CHAPTER ONE: ON TOP OF THE WORLD Arctic – Winter 2010 The cold, clear water filled all of the visible space that lay in front of the divers. Bubbles from their auger masks collected at the icy ceiling of the Arctic Ocean. As the divers passed close to the frozen mass, their hands playfully stroked it, chasing the bubbles that they introduced into this alien environment.
