Talisent's news about Horus that told Spike he was designed and essentially created by an artificial life form had become locked in Spike's mind. It had become the focus of the entire issue for him. Sure, the pros and cons of establishing a gateway connection between the two worlds were still there, but they were fading to the background of his considerations. They became items to fit into the overall picture. Spike's heart was pulling him toward Horus. He knew it and he couldn't help it. In fact, he didn't want to help it. All he had to do now was rationalize a few facts about why it was the right thing to do. Then he would be completely comfortable with the decision. Spike pledged his help to Talisent and she could feel Spike's emotion in the commitment he gave her. He would take the risk of the journey through the gateway in order to fulfill the goal of his intended mission. He would trust Talisent because now he wanted to believe her more than he had ever wanted anything before. Whether she knew it or not, Talisent had found Spike Webb's weakness. He would go along with her in order to meet Horus. Talisent gave Spike the time and place for the transfer. He would position himself on the designated computer and from there be transported through the temporary gateway. Initially he would be housed in one of Talisent's systems which had been configured for his use. Spike would need to use it while adapting himself to their native hardware technology. After a couple months of training with Horus, he would be ready for transport back through the gateway. Spike had made his decision. He just had to face Nancy and tell her.
