  1. The Terminator wheeled the big Harley around,
  2. cutting onto a street that ran parallel to the canal.
  3. The target was racing along in the concrete canyon.
  4. Terminator had to accelerate to keep it in sight. One
  5. eye pointed directly forward, artificially creating depth
  6. perception by creating a computer-generated off-angle
  7. ghost image. The other eye locked on the target, running
  8. ref-checks on the passenger, which came up blank
  9. (there was no memory data, perhaps an oversight), and
  10. making instantaneous kinetic studies of trajectories,
  11. concluding that the target was too far away, and moving
  12. too fast for an attempt at contact.
  13. He would have to head him off.
  14. The Terminator hunkered down and increased speed,
  15. the Harley’s tires hanging onto the gravel-strewn dirt
  16. path running alongside the canal by micrometers.
  17. Then he came to another street and had to slow,
  18. repositioning its other eye for emergency backup, and
  19. using its hyperreal sense of motion and mass to shoot
  20. around an oncoming station wagon, missing it by a
  21. heartbeat. When Terminator tried to reestablish visual
  22. contact with the target, it had disappeared.
  23. Rapidly rescanning the canal below, he came up with
  24. zero.
  25. But he could hear the dirt bike’s high-pitched squeal.
  26. Instantly, he rapid-scanned the area down to the moving
  27. quarry.
  28. The dirt bike had driven up a ramp out of the canal
  29. back onto the street a half block away, and was wheeling
  30. into the parking garage of the Galleria, a vast, four
  31. tiered shopping mall.
  32. The Terminator smoothly leaned the cycle around
  33. several slower cars and closed in.
  34.
