Ever since I escaped from Bionic Corp, I've been searching for a way to atone for what I'd done. Patch and Marisa told me to move on, it's in the past, they'd say. I can't do that. What about everyone I've harmed or killed? Do they not deserve justice? If Katrina is right about the map leading to the Annihilation Code, then I have to find it and destroy it. I won't let that damn code kill anyone else!
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eSijYYOxt
Chase looked like he'd seen a ghost. He clutched my arm, so tightly he almost put a dent in the metal.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLlQat6WlX
"What's wrong?" I surveyed the alleyway for any sign of danger. Nothing seemed amiss.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1YfMQOAlI
"This crazy cyborg cornered me! They asked for the map to the Annihilation Code, but I didn't give it to them! He said, clutching me tighter.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7te4R7eJWB
I froze. Could it be the same cyborg that attacked me a month ago? I reached into my pocket and pulled out a drawing of my attacker I sketched on one of the disposable coasters. I handed it to him. "Is this the cyborg?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYZo43rNDL
He stroked his chin as he analyzed the sketch. "No. I don't think so. The mask is different. The cyborg that confronted me didn't have a skull on their mask, it was just plain black." He narrowed his eyes. "Your cyborg looks a lot more muscular too. Mine was pretty scrawny now that I think about it."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHf8li8p5q
Perhaps there are two different cyborgs interested in the Annihilation Code. It's very existence puts all cyborgs at risk. "What exactly did the cyborg do to you?" I asked Chase.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRhr4lSwCg
"Well, they jumped out of nowhere and pounced at me, begging for the map. I didn't hand it over because I'm super brave and heroic."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgDtJ1WD4W
I raised an eyebrow. "You didn't have the map I did."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpO9T3s2jif
"Anyway, when I courageously refused to hand it over, the killer cyborg was like," He cleared his throat and did an impression of an old hag. "Call me Oblivion, for I am your doom, and then randomly started singing. I don't know what that was about. After that, they disappeared."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQSEpcUBRw
An overwhelming sense of panic grabbed hold of me. My heart palpated violently. A warning popped up on my cybernetics telling me to regulate my breathing, I ignored it. I counted backward in my head like I always did when a panic attack took hold of me, switching languages every time. Veinte, Nineteen, Dix-huit, Siebzhen, 十六, पंद्रह, أربعةعشر, Тринадцать, Doze, じゅういち, Dieci. Once I was calm enough to sign, I asked. "What song?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq6O4mLTOt
Chase grimaced. "I don't know, it was in Icelandic or something, but my cybernetics translated it to something about a wolf eating children." He shivered. "It was freaky." He hummed the cursed tune under his breath.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0BTZbCrxP
I trembled. That's the song that plays in my nightmares. I prayed I'd never hear the wretched melody ever again. Now every vile note came flooding back to me. "Russian."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSLkNIV9ZA
"What?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1wuxeWxbh
I took several deep breaths, trying to steady myself. "The song is in Russian, not Icelandic."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ837UTGHFuX
He shot me a questioning look. "How do you know?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJJlwGEP83
"Because that song is the Annihilation Code."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ812x7o2VCq
Chase'seyes widened. "What? That's the cyborg murder code?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MJsIfTKsa
I nodded gravely.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18XEwqXNyC
"Then why didn't I die?" He placed his hands on his hips.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0mXcWGMnZ
"Patch was the one who installed your cybernetics, not Bionic Corp. He was kind enough to exclude the kill switch from your programming." I explained.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHwAvIBHpL
"So, I'm immune to the murder code?" Chase said, with a glimmer of smugness in his eye.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqupsoZVCr6
"It appears so, but don't test your luck," I replied.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTFOcgtcE0
"You know, I always thought the Annihilation Code would be something much cooler."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12A6hKkwlR
"Why would Oblivion need the map if they already have the Annihilation Code?" I asked.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSD7br1q3W3
Chase rubbed his chin. "Maybe they don't want anyone else to have it. They want to keep it for themselves."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZ8ZlcQaTk
I nodded. Maybe, Chase wasn't as stupid as I thought. I took one last glance around the alley, then began marching towards the street.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkvI4dwgvL
"Where are you going?" Chase asked.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQImVccNOMO
"I need to find Gabriel St. Martin." If what Chase said is true, then it was crucial for me to destroy the code before anyone else could learn it. Which meant I needed to reconcile with Gabriel, even though I didn't want to.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGseK1A0vs
"Hey, wait up!" Chase sprinted after me.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31EjqA5Oqt
Whatever, I didn't care one way or the other if he tagged along, as long as he stayed out of the way.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe2ugtFxj3
I maneuvered my way down several alleyways until I reached the old shed where I kept my Hover-Cycle. I slid the key into the lock and swung open the door.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfDEbpoMur
Chase panted heavily, as he struggled to keep up with my pace.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBulQyUeXcO
I stepped inside the shed and retrieved my helmet. I extended my spare helmet to Chase.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Q9cG34aXb
He shook his head. "You expect me to drive one of those? Um, no, thank you, those things are dangerous!"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLm4O7nByRv
"I'll be the one driving," I responded. "I don't have time to walk." I pushed my Hover-Cycle out of the shed. I took a moment to admire the immaculate paint job I'd done on it. I'd painted red and black with an image of a roaring tiger on the sides.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6kL8zfcKN
Chase stared at the Hover-Cycle with apprehension.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33M2xRD4kZ
"You don't have to go," I signed. "I can download directions back to Patch's workshop on your cybernetics."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ46VooJWId
"No way!" Chase protested. "Somebody's tried to kill me twice, and I'd like to know why! I need to know who's responsible for this!" He gestured towards his cybernetic parts.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02eeDjHQq2
"I can't promise you'll find the answers you're looking for."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB0A4WgqxL
He wrapped his arms around himself in a sorrowful embrace. "I don't have anything left to lose."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjg5UehPeM
I shrugged. Fair enough. I sat down on my Hover-Cycle and motioned for Chase to do the same.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO3jt5T3Ws
Chase reluctantly put on the spare helmet. "Fine, but I'm not wrapping my arms around your waist or anything."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvJOh4cs4H
"Alright, have fun falling off."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnYZYlhwuI
I weaved my way through the crowded streets of Ikigai II. There were no cars on the island. The streets are far too narrow to maneuver a vehicle of that size, and they aren't necessary. Ikigai II is only two square miles, so most people walk from one place to another. Don't let the island's modest size fool you; it has a population of over 35,000 people. The population is vast and diverse, which makes sense since the island docks in every corner of the world. Thanks to cybernetic translation technology, the language barrier became obsolete.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5gEghRCSx
After making several sharp turns, Chase begrudgingly clutched onto my shoulders. We navigated through the winding streets until we reached the center of Ikigai II. Standing smack dab in the middle of the island was the Cybrawl stadium. The architecture was inspired by the Roman Colosseum, with a modern twist.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LOYDbbYHT
I parked outside the stadium, removed my helmet, and dismounted the Hover-Cycle. Chase did the same. We entered the stadium's crowded atrium. There must be a Cybrawl today. That could make getting a meeting with Gabriel difficult.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC01iPGLE2k
"So, how are we supposed to get a meeting with this guy?" Chase asked.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvvyfP8qwA
I marched up to the private elevator that led to the commentator's suite.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6mSIDYryx
A frazzled-looking intern ran up to us. "I'm sorry, sir, but no guests are allowed up there!"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLMc4iuJxp
I flashed my V.I.P. Access badge.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jJ5bpHclt
The intern narrowed her eyes at the badge. "This looks very official, but no visitors are allowed in the suite during a brawl."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFdINBlWVu
"Are you giving my favorite godchild a hard time, Erica?" I heard a familiar voice say over the intern's earpiece.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIYNJQpjaM
"No, Mister St. Martin!" She stammered.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrfITi1F9C
"Let him in." Gabriel St. Martin said, exasperated.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OMIbQEMPP
The intern eyed Chase. "There's someone here with him. Do you want me to allow both of them up?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe1qrk744q
The security camera on the ceiling turned around to face Chase.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEApGBKqX1T
"If it isn't Chase Huxley," Gabriel said over the earpiece.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbIQIM9fVr
"It is!" Chase said. "Since I'm a super famous celebrity, can I come up to the commentator suite?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Kxd1x0M7d
Gabriel chuckled. "Sure!"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ910Pa2p7z8
The intern puckered her lips into a petulant expression, but she didn't argue. She punched in a password on the keypad outside the elevator, and the door opened. "Have a nice visit."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IMBlU7HZh
Chase and I stepped into the gold elevator. I stared blankly at the doors as they closed. I know Gabriel, and I know he won't give up anything for free. I'm afraid of what he'll ask for in exchange for the map. I wonder if he knows what it leads to. If he does, the price will be much higher. Whatever the price, I will pay it. I must destroy the code at all costs.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JRbXUchvX
The elevator dinged and the door opened. Gabriel was standing there to welcome us. "Greetings, gentlemen. What a surprise!" He extended one of his cybernetic hands for us to shake. He shook Chase's hand and then mine. I glanced my old mentor up and down to see how much he'd changed since the last time I saw him. Today, he wore a garnet-colored blazer with a black tie and slacks. He still kept his hair in its trademark style, a fade on the sides with dreadlocks on top. I noticed small flecks of gray in his jet black hair, and wrinkles started to show on his deep brown skin. Has it been that long since I last saw him?
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhhRFvk2qs
Gabriel ignored me and focused his attention on Chase. "It's not often I encounter a fellow American in this place. Allow me to officially welcome you to Ikigai II."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurG6uSCR8K
Chase smiled. "Thanks, I hate it here."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpgSs1Up2m
Someone snickered from the back of the room. "Finally, someone who's honest." I turned my head to see who it was. Adrien Kumar leaned up against the back wall. He still carried the facade of disinterest everyone had come to expect from him. He was also dressed in an immaculately tailored suit. There must be a special fight going on today. Cybrawl hosts don't usually get dressed up unless there's a special event going on.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxNjHI7Yrn
The island's foundations creaked beneath us, and Chase had to bite back a yelp.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF52MLtag0H
Gabriel gave a dismissive wave of his hand. "You'll get used to it, everyone does."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnhYeB6B4b
"No. I've lived here for decades, and it still sucks." Adrien retorted.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDOIUR4yMq
Gabriel scowled at him.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUKTOuxWbM
"Why do you live here, if you don't like it?" Chase asked Adrien.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKku0cK1Kn
A smirk spread across his sharp features. "Because Ikigai II has the greatest Cybrawls in the world."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINOdjLVfrb
"Have you ever seen a Cybrawl?" Gabriel asked.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFufUJDc292
Chase shook his head. "No, but my best friend Mason is obsessed. He streams every single brawl, so I've seen a few of the highlights."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtI1Cu9H0xj
Adrien cringed. "American Cybrawls don't count. They lack the most fundamental facet of any Cybrawl, bloodshed."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTxkdH4a7E
"Okay, then." Chase laughed awkwardly. "I hear you two are Cybrawl legends." He said, trying to redirect the conversation.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoMxCXowMV
"We're not just legends," Gabriel bragged. "We're the greatest fighters of all time."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieNxQVELom
"No one can rival us," Adrien confirmed.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeiTm16Zr8
"Have you ever battled each other?" Chase asked.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwHHJAMJ8b
They shot each other a knowing smile.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOpqfJXqaZ
"We did, once," Gabriel said. "It wasn't televised. It was a private duel between me and Adrien. We wanted to settle once and for all who was the ultimate champion."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqDCwp2jWl
"That was one hell of a fight." Adrien reminisced.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cNwmGD3Oq
"Well, who won?" Chase was on the edge of his seat now.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq5UjMVb3d
They both chuckled. "It's our secret."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOeSzuzSDI
When I first heard the story, I begged them to tell me who won, but no matter how much I pestered, they refused to say. I'd always found that odd. Both Gabriel and Adrien enjoy bragging and one-upping their competition. Why do they keep this a secret? I don't think I'll ever know.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaz0ArrNi4
"You can't just leave me hanging!" Chase protested.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjyn2LtARY
Adrien folded his arms. "We can and we will."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3Sc4aPAt3
My eyes drifted to a framed picture of Gabriel, Adrien, and Patch. They all looked so young, it was almost startling.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNKCBlL0PU
Gabriel caught me staring and moved the photo closer, so we could get a better look. "That was us at our very first tournament. We were nineteen at the time, the same age you are now." His lips upturned, in a brief smile.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJlNVCQSfg
Chase gawked at the photo. "Is that Patch? He looks just like Atlas!"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4s0IMY1wc
I nodded. I'd always been told I looked like Patch.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQDgGDEl5k
Chase ran his fingers over the image. "So, how did you guys meet Patch?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubRufidhWd
"Right after Patch defected from Bionic Corp, he got a job as a medic at the arena where we had our fights, and Adrien and I spent a lot of time in the infirmary. Patch became one of our closest friends."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16WjCJiDO5
"So, are you really Atlas' godfather?" Chase asked.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE3Qlvqc8I
Gabriel nodded.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWdXeeEjjh
"He requested that Patch would make him my honorary godfather, and in exchange, he'd protect me from Bionic Corp." I clarified.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6x5DYAh79
Gabriel tried to put a hand on my shoulder, but I jerked away. I don't want his affection.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFTLJvvhmu
"Are you still mad at me?" Gabriel asked. "I thought you came here to make amends."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UWQI9tSON
I told the truth. "I don't know."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPPv587uY4
Chase spoke up. "Actually, we're here for a map. It's–"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5v8NdAMC9
"We know." Adrien cut him off before he could finish his sentence.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZbqOPYul0
Gabriel shook his head. "It seems everyone is after that dammed map these days."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgHanPCVEX
"Who else has been asking about it?" I asked.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhByLjgjhWK
Gabriel scoffed. "Bionic Corp tried to bribe me into handing it over. They offered to cover the cost of this entire event."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2OHn7oPkl
"How much did they offer?" Chase asked. "I don't like to brag, but I'm pretty rich. I could probably pay you even more."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrX33QBgWrP
"They offered me 54 million credits."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjN6ppSeuKu
Chase let out a slow whistle. "I'm not that rich."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmakqf71HVR
"Are you going to accept Bionic Corp's offer?" I asked, dreading the answer.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgyei86atv
To my surprise, Gabriel said, "No. I'm not. I don't trust Bionic Corp, not one bit. If anything Patch has said is true, that company is corrupt to the core and I don't want anything to do with them."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4F6tsE6Xu
"You said no to 54 million credits?" Adrien exclaimed.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnl47uMixC9
"It's not worth getting involved with a shady corporation that abuses cyborgs like us," Gabriel replied.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhN3AgwldH
Adrien shrugged his cybernetic shoulders. "Whatever, it's your map. Trade it to whomever you want."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgS4DTa28Ac
I gazed at Gabriel earnestly. "What do you want in exchange for the map?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiY4haNmPf
"Why do you want it?" He asked.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOWb7p2KRO
"It's important to me," was my only response. There was a chance he didn't know the potential significance of the map, and I wasn't ready to put all my cards on the table.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRjie28gVf
Gabriel paused for a moment, contemplating his answer. "I want you to fight for me one last time."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWDEbuqHCt
I sighed loudly. "You haven't changed a bit, have you? You're going to exploit me for your own gain again."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Wv5Jsj3gK
Chase picked at his fingernails, trying and failing to seem uninterested in our quarrel.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5o86X3u9h
"I fought in a few Cybrawls when I was a teenager and Gabriel was my manager," I told Chase to clue him in.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlR4NC2tS3
Chase eyed me up and down. "You were a Cybrawl Fighter? You're so small and scrawny!
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYimf2nbIA
I rolled my eyes. Chase and I have the exact same physique, he's just a couple of inches taller.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVeMhBUc8I
"Do you know what everyone loves?" Gabriel asked Chase.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiJPb8perE
"Cupcakes?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrFxYs52iF
Gabriel laughed. "No. Everyone loves an underdog, and that's what Atlas was, someone you could root for. He was young, determined, and easy to relate to. He was everything audiences loved."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3uJiZ2MGK
"Why'd you stop?" Chase asked.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjGKoVqC0s
I folded my arms defensively. "I was tired of being forced to give and receive punches for a living."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd7Vv5gYNP
Gabriel clenched his fists. "Don't pretend like I coerced you into fighting. You could've left at any time, but you didn't because you enjoy inflicting pain. I've seen it in your eyes when you fight." His expression softened. "I know it's not your fault Bionic Corp programmed you that way."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGDbWgvidP
His words tore through my heart because they were mostly true. He was wrong about one thing: my programming didn't make me violent, I had killed once before then. I've never told anyone, not even Marisa. "You're wrong." My hands shook as I signed.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnL9YQASeCN
"If you say so." Gabriel reached into his jacket and pulled out two red glowing knives.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYzL8bx6ND
Those knives were mine once upon a time. I hadn't seen them in ages, but I still remembered the best way to carve someone open with them.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzcjSX6Hsw
"I knew you'd come back someday, so I kept your knives safe for you." Gabriel rested a hand on my shoulder.
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe21pzdLGnE
I glanced at Gabriel and then the knives. "Why do you want me to fight again so badly?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DbscJzDSB
"I've missed having you around."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSb6DNYMAI
I raised a skeptical eyebrow. "That's all?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzic3IeKUcx
He tilted his head to the side. "Well, one of my fighters has been begging to spar against you. Apparently, he's a big fan. "
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgwOi7owab
My stomach churned. Something didn't seem right about all this. "Who am I fighting against?"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4NZHrhktq
Gabriel pulled up the fighter's profile on his Holowatch. Cyborg 131191514 Code name: Vindicator. Therewereseveral photographs of a muscular cyborg wearing a tattered cloak and a skull mask, beating his opponents to a pulp. I pulled the coaster out of my pocket and cross-examined my sketch with the pictures in front of me. It was nearly a perfect match. Vindicator is the cyborg that tried to shoot me a month ago! My heartbeat began to race and I felt a panic attack coming on. I shook my head. "I won't fight him."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5F9l6UF7cV
Chase glared at me. "We can't leave without the map!"
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡob40XPhu4F
I counted backward in my head. "I'm sorry, I can't do it."
500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46awZwpt2V
Chase raised a hand. "Can I take his place in the brawl?"
