So Dice was right about the transmission. He crawled across the desk to get a better look at the device. A light-up orb with what looked to be an antenna? "I've never seen anything like this before," he said. He looked up at the other robots. "Are any of you familiar with it, perhaps? It didn't...

Dice crawled back and forth across his oversized desk, thinking hard. The signal had come maybe twenty minutes ago, a set of coordinates followed by "Program Deus." That was it. Dice had already contacted the police, but the bolthead operator had brushed him off as going senile. That left Dice...

Tornillo turned the corner onto the strret the coordinates had shown. Nothing seemed unusual about it; the only exception was a warehouse about halfway down, where a pair of police cars stood parked in front of a hole in the wall. An olympian was opening the warehouse door, and another titan...

C2's Emergency Repairs, Necessities District Tornillo finished welding and stepped back to inspect its handiwork. There: The crack in the wall was fixed. Now they wouldn't have to worry about it becoming a structural instability. Tornillo had stayed well past its night shift hours fixing the...

Alec took a deep breath and followed Mihkal to adress Otto Coreolis. There wasn't anything to be nervous about. The executive hadn't said anything was wrong. For all Alec knew, Coreolis was here to approve their grant. Not that he couldn't be here for other - Alec felt his draw drop. Coreolis...

Alec hummed a tune to himself as the ATHEIA skimmed across the wasteland toward panorama city, trying to ignore the smell of dried worm guts on everyone's uniforms. Panorama City loomed ahead, its walls throwing shadows a mile long. Maybe another five minutes and they'd be at the gate. As much...

Benji pulled into the driveway in front of the driveway in front of the house. He took a deep breath. This was it: his first ever solo hunt. There would be no advice, no extra eyes, no backup if something went south. He couldn't wait. Another car was already sitting in the driveway. Probably...

Bryce felt the serpent's grip begin to weaken, just enough to gasp a few breaths. Then the serpent screeched and loosened its grip even further. Bryce gave a final shove and scrambled out of the serpent's coils. Bryce stumbled away and stood, gasping and clutching his side. The serpent leaned...

"Don't jist turn your back on it!" a woman's voice shouted. Bryce looked up to see a woman run into view, armed with a bow. And Wings. Naturally. Bryce turned back to the snake. Too late. The snake lashed out. It wrapped Bryce in its coils before he could react. Bryce pushed against the sides...

The snake lunged forward, its mouth snapping shut inches from the fox-eared boy. "Help!" he yelled, looking at Bryce. Then the boy's eye lit up. Literally lit up. Bryce warmth began to surround Bryce. He felt pumped. He wanted to lift soemthing throw something, break something. He wanted to...

Bryce stopped short as she reached the girl, Kamila. If the boy's tails had been a shock, the had nothing on the large wings that sprouted from the girl's back. The girl pointed up at him. "You have fangs," she said. Bryce ran his tongue across his teeth. Sure enough, his canines ended in long...

Bryce nodded, getting over his initial shock over the boy's foxlike appearance. His mind was re-entering paramedic mode. If the boy didn't seem to be bleeding, and in the wake of the bombs, anything that wasn't imminently fatal could wait. At the boy's question, Bryce glanced at the cuffs on...

The replies to Bryce's shout came back almost immediately, three people shouting back, and the rustling of vegetation indicating they stood up. Two men and a girl, all to Bryce's left. Bryce turned. Against the setting sun, he could see the silhouette of two of the others. And his concussion...

Damian answered Elliot's question before he could even think about it. "I have an idea." Then he caught himself. "Well, sort of. To be honest, I don't know what the region's like beyond what we can see from the top windows. I think our best bet is to go into the woods to the west and hope for...

Damian found Elliot in the study, reading while his Carnvine chewed on some cardboard. Yanma immediately flew over and landed on Elliot's head, make a wide detour around Olly. Damian, on the other hand, leaned against the doorframe. "What's up, Damian?" Elliot said. "You look worried... not...

@Hyperlink4 Damian crossed his arms and looked at the crate of food. The last they had, and it was already half empty. One more week and that would be gone too. Damain looked up, so he could just see Yanma perched on his head. "So now what?" Yanma just looked down at him and grinned. Damian...

Lizzie skipped through the marketplace,completely unfazed by the cold. She'd gotten it, she had finally gotten it! She'd been up at the crack of dawn every to see if the marble had come, and when it had appeared outside her door that morning, she'd only taken the time to throw an extra set of...
