|
|
"For a single, beautiful moment, all was peaceful at last."
Easter Egg
Hana Gitleman is nine years old and she thinks she can fly, like the angels. So she jumps off of a roof with an umbrella, two weeks after the suicide bombing that killed her mother and grandmother. She is told that she must be more careful, more respectful, more obedient - And then she flashes to the present situation where she is told that she must take out the tracking system. She has become all of these things, and yet there's still a gun in her face!
But Hana Gitleman won't go down without a fight....
She disarms the soldiers and takes control, just as their commanding officer drives up!
"I'm so sorry for the confusion, Dr. Gitleman," he tells her.
Hana has forged e-mails to the base, claiming to be an Israeli scientist who is to accompany them on their flight to space. She goes up in the launch with them and makes her space walk to a satellite hovering over Australia - this is the tracking system.
Hana sends the satellite a self destruct message, but something goes wrong! The satellite was armed with a defense mechanism, a virus, that infects Hana! She is dying, however, not dead. With whatever strength she has left she launches herself at the satellite, pushing it down into Earth's atmosphere, going along with it herself.
This was exactly how she expected to die.
Back on Earth, in Las Vegas, Niki Sanders comforts Micah, who is worried for D.L., who is still in the hospital. He goes online and chats with a woman who lost her mother at an early age. "Thanks for chatting with me. What's your name?"
"My name is Hana Gitleman," Samantha48616e61 replies. "But you can call me wireless."
And the truth is, death is never quite what you expect it to be. It might seem like an ending, but really, the journey is just beginning.
Another fabulous comic by Jason Badower  |

| She's not dead. The thing I thought would happen, happened. Instead of dying in body and mind, she only died in body. Her mind, her essence, her soul, it's in the wireless systems of the world. |

She didn't die. Notice that her communications with Micah were 2 days after the satellite event. |

Acidburn! You stole my quote!
That was great, how that turned out....although, I wonder, if she might have the ability to also go into people's minds. That would be an interesting twist next year, don't you think? I will guarantee you, that will we see her both in flashbacks, and in other stories as the "Ghost in the Machine" and she will be prominent in the whole Heroes 360 experience. I wonder if she'll team-up with Micah more and that was just a hint of things to come? |
