Max and Claire both stoically defended themselves as numerous Hallowed ran at them in random waves. When they did attack, Max shredded them with short bursts from his rifle, while Claire cut them down with precise beams. No matter what, few made it past the first couple meters from the wide doorway.
She had no choice but to believe. “Aim for their heads,” she said. “Please. Or at least, do whatever you need to do to ease their suffering. These people deserve to die with some dignity.” Claire and Max both agreed audibly. But then all three of them heard deep thumping just outside. “What’re th
Pain radiated from Eva’s back - she looked inwards and saw a hairline fracture along one of her vertebrae. Muscles bruised and a little torn. Then she grinned. That’s what she got for playing around too much. She looked down at Callie on the rooftop below, who was panting heavily from the exertio
Amal quickly slid over to Claire’s side, unclasped her armor with expert precision, and tossed it aside. Underneath, blood poured out of numerous bullet wounds across her body. Claire herself was hyperventilating, even as her blood flowed away. “Take it easy,” said Amal. “Breathe slowly. I’ve got

Security Intelligence looked over the entire circuit with watchful eyes. Its logarithms spun in endless loops as it waited patiently for any disruption. It watched out if even a single digit was modified or destroyed. Its code knew to expect another attack, after all, it didn’t get the chance to el
Two of Miko’s mirrors wreaked havoc on Network and Diagnostics. They tore into the code with incredible vigor and destructive power. She poured everything she had into disrupting the logic circuit, and tore its code to pieces with every movement she made. Like before, she imagined she was some grea
Claire was massively distressed by their sudden onslaught. She kept her beamlance on and cut a number of them in half even as they advanced. But the gun became hotter and hotter in her hands, to the point where it became painful to hold. But even despite that, she tightened her grip and kept the tr

The hab itself was sparsely decorated and seemed barely lived-in. There was a small pile of personal things in bags and boxes in a corner of the large living room, which appeared to be the effects of the small family that had moved in. It seemed that they had just taken possession of the hab itself
The pup came to a small group of human and drogar children, who much like his own brethren were running around and playing with each other. They laughed and giggled as they chased each other gaily through the park. Unlike his brothers and sisters however, the pup found some excitement and enjoyment

Kali shivered slightly as she recalled that moment in time. Her body hunched over slightly as she grasped and embraced herself in an attempt to comfort the way she felt. More than that, her voice started to crack and waver as she spoke. “Everytime I looked at him, at anyone I tried to ‘be’ with, a
“Hey, you doing okay?” Amal asked her quietly. “You look like you could use some company.” She climbed up on the outcropping where Kali was, and set herself down next to her with a warm smile painted on her face. “Yeah, I guess,” Kali replied. “Just going through some stuff, nothing too bad.” “Fe

Her heart practically leapt out of her chest as she ran towards Lucifer. The sight of hir caused tears to well up in her eyes. They practically came streaming out by the time she reached hir pod. She placed her hands on the clear canopy as the desire to sweep Lucifer up in her arms overtook her. Fr
“Wonder how many people in the galaxy have three ultra rares,” she muttered to herself. “Something tells me it’s just me, at least for now.” There is also a high priority note from Raijin, her DI noted. Would you like to review it? Freya nodded. — Dearest friend, Welcome back to the land of the
