Flash fiction biologSciFi "The Outpost"

The Pulses
It's no fancy trick, science had insisted; it was only a discovery of a new force of nature--new to humans, that is. Suzi only needed the ability to slow laser pulses, or any light pulse for that matter-- light pulses to be captured within her crystals--and she could use any laser pulse captured within her hierarchical energy induction resonator(H.E.I.R.) to transfer and store light (yes, recall light too!) as a quantum memory. Humans didn't see it that way, or at least couldn't understand how information maps onto slowed light as data transfers into crystal--come on, was it fate that found the human race--the ones with all the chances, even in Century21--with digital information and biological data, and they needed  three, not just two, world wars involving everyone, to settle a few little differences?
     Even now, time used to gather more components and gadgets may be considered a waste to an entity that expresses digital information with pulses of light and operates memory at quantum levels. It appears, at best, likely so.
