Chapter Ten

Their female was counting on him. Ace didn’t know if he was worthy of her faith.

Ghost, the C Model cyborg on the second warship, was damaged to the point of shutting down, his processors experiencing a mere flicker of activity. He was able to transmit indiscriminately, dumping all of his visual, auditory and other system information into the lines. Ace could work with that.

Ghost, we need your help.

Ugh.

Open your holding chamber, warrior.

The male placed his dirty hands on the control panel. His fingers were ragged and unkempt. His processors whirled. Nothing happened. It should have been a simple feat for any functional cyborg. Ghost didn’t have the awareness to access the warship’s systems.

Ghost, I have to hack into your machine. Do I have your consent? He would have complete control over the other male. No capable warrior would ever agree to that.

Ghost was far too gone to resist. Ugh.

He could be infected with a virus, Thrasher cautioned.

That was a possibility. Something had damaged the warrior.

Then close your transmission lines, genius. Ace had already closed his other lines.

And leave you? Never.

One of us has to protect our female. It was no longer merely the two of them. Their Commander was a consideration.

Thrasher hesitated.

If this goes wrong, I’ll need you to recover me. You can’t do that if you’re infected also.

You’re an ass, Thrasher grumbled.

He closed the lines, severing the connection between them.

Ace missed his presence immediately. Since the planet rotation they’d been manufactured, Thrasher had been in his processors, constantly sharing his often-colorful insights.

Now, it was eerily quiet, cold, lonely. Ace gritted his teeth and hacked into Ghost’s processors. His systems detected no virus. Something else had fried Ghost’s circuits and fragmented his databases.

Ace couldn’t locate the source of the damage. He also couldn’t explain why the warrior’s nanocybotics hadn’t repaired the malfunction.

It almost seemed as though the destruction had been self-inflicted.

Had the C Model shut down his machine? That required a strength of will few warriors had. It was unprecedented for a cyborg.

But two cyborgs bonding with the same female was also unprecedented. And that had happened. Ace was linked with their Carys and Thrasher.

His female and male continued to direct the battle, a battle they’d lose if Ace was unsuccessful. He couldn’t allow them to be damaged, to be killed.

That loss would shut down his own machine.

Permanently.

Ace repaired the cyborg’s fingers and palm interfaces, reconnecting the circuits. Ghost’s nanocybotics were stimulated by the activity, reviving slightly, but they didn’t interfere with Ace’s patches. They must have realized they were too weak to fight him.

Once those repairs were completed, Ace tapped into Ghost’s circuits. Accessing the warship’s systems was easy to accomplish, their relatively functional state a relief from the mess within the warrior.

The doors slid open. Ghost lurched forward, looked to the right and to the left. There were no guards. All of the crew must have been diverted to battle duties.

Kill every being you see. Ace kept his instructions simple.

Kill must have been a command the warrior understood.
