Battleforce Chronicles
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. You could scream, however, in your EV1 environment suit designed to support you while in space, and through your short-wave interpersonal communicator, the bridge officer of the “Hail Mary” can hear that scream quite clearly to the point where the speaker gives way to static.

Interitus Omnia
“Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. But what about a billion screams? What about hundreds of billions of screams? What about scores of civilizations innumerable erased without a trace? Do you think we could hear their screams?”

On Subject
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Are you being witty, Professor? Witty? I think not. No one could attest to the serious nature of my comment better than Subject 23. I assume she’s the reason I’ve been called before the Directive.

He’s one of the lead engineers on the project with the second highest security clearance at this division. There are only a few people with more influence in any of the Mars Divisions around the country which means that James travels a lot to the various divisions to promote project synergy.

Dreams of Sun
She waited for the signal, drifting in the twilight sky, unsupported and invisible. Next to her a vertical beam of light pulsed from the apex of the black pyramid and dissolved in the darkening skies. The city was a sprawling, shimmering ocean beneath her feet. She looked towards the desert and the distant mountains. She waited, she watched, slowly circling, taking in the sunset, and savouring the warm breeze. Beneath her feet, points of light pulsed, flashing with epileptic intensity. The shining metropolis came alive at night, the constant rumbling noise of the city was punctuated by sirens, hooting vehicles, and screaming humans. She listened, but could not distinguish whether the screams were from pain or pleasure.

The Yellow Hibiscus Chapter 18
I sighed, thinking I must find out if the diamond in my possession was natural and, if so, how many carats. Of course, the problem was that I had a weapon, and I couldn't really let anyone touch it until I knew exactly what it was. I sat there, afraid to move, wondering what the gypsy had seen while she was reading my palm.

His large muscular figure emerged, clad in his heavy black armor, with his subordinates following behind him. He took a look at the police response that had been here previously. Mostly peace officers who were here attempting to keep bystanders at bay.
