Daedo sat next to his mother. Her breathing was regular and her heartbeat steady. She was healthy when you didn’t consider her brain activity. There were intermittent signs of awareness and responsiveness which gave everyone hope, but they were few and far between.
He waited for his Father to arrive and swung his legs while contemplating different c...

Jia walked down the corridor. She’d been summoned to the medical bay where Daedo’s mother resided in a comatose, possibly vegetative state. She’d recently been there, but Vannier gave no reason why her presence was required on this occasion.
The door the slid open and she scanned the room before taking a step inside. There were six ma...

Myrmidon: Security and operating systems are under our control. I also have control over all the space exos.
Daedo: Keep them blinded, locked down and max out their noise cancellation. Are there any personnel onboard who aren’t in space exos?
Myrmidon: None that I can find through scanning, comms, or operational reports.<...

Of the four possible outcomes, this was the worst, but, Daedo breathed a sigh of relief. If they had orders to kill him, they would have already tried to shoot him.
“On your knees and face the wall,” the exo solider barked and Daedo complied. The Huawei exo soldier then attached a clamp across his wrists. Myrmidon probed it with the bo...

Daedo was deep in the coastal mountain range outside Caracas. He had run and climbed to a place that was inaccessible to mag vehicles and covered in dense temperate forest. He was not alone; he had his constant companion, Myrmidon.
Daedo: This is a good a place as any.
Myrmidon: Svarski’s encryption protocols is ready. ...

Daedo attached the last cord and checked the other group's progress. There were six of them, but they had the larger section of Amphibian to drag.
Daedo: good. Keep that pace up until you reach the island.
Myrmidon checked the dampening and background noise.

“You built this craft just for this mission?” Picard asked.
Daedo answered without breaking focus from his tactical display. “No.”
Picard looked confused. The sleek vessel was surely new.

Jia sighed as the craft landed between Mace and Vannier they directed her down within range of a temporary entrance into their base. It was still 100km away from the base and newly constructed. The mining bots dug a new access point in the last few hours linking into the existing underground web.

Jia woke with her head aching like there was a knife embedded to the hilt in the back of her skull.
“Fark,” she bleated uncharacteristically. She then opened an eye and regretted it as light streamed into her iris. She couldn’t activate dimming on the ocular implant fast enough. At least she didn’t make the same mistake with her other eye. Sh...

There was no time to wonder what the effect of the barrage would be on their recent agreement and future presence in Dakar. Daedo’s squad kept off the mag-roads, in hindsight it was a mistake to show spy satellites their speed across the surface. But in doing so the enemy would now have to factor that speed in their expectations and calculations.

Daedo sat in the Mag-train with Axel-Zero and his squad. They were all in nanosuits with the new ocular implants and although the technology was new it was serviceable. It was easy to implement their normal HUD and communication platform across everyone’s vision. They were no worse off with a few extra features.

Moisture collected on the clear acrylic and ran down in droplets along previously established routes. Axel-Zero watched Daedo as he watched the water.

Mace strode down the corridor towards her squadroom. She exhaled in an attempt to dispel her frustration with Daedo before facing her squad. They were currently working on their individual projects whether they were academic or research in nature.

“I’m struggling to make sense of this,” Krecke said while describing the information passed on to her by Daedo.
“If you are asking if I can - then you will be disappointed,” Daedo replied.

There were twenty-four squads altogether, however, five were missing members due to squad zero defending their base.
The three arenas were joined into one massive arena which was one and a half times larger than a standard mech combat arena. Each of the first ...

Her usual bounce was subdued into a purposeful stride. Axel-Zero entered Daedo’s quarters and announced, “Your replies are not helping.” Her bob of dark hair had a few out of place, but otherwise, she looked her normal self.

“How are their vitals?” Master Haddad asked Mace. He could easily look for himself, the question was more about her mental health than his need to be informed.
Mace didn’t look at Master Haddad but replied evenly, “Nothing has changed. Both heart rates are slow and steady, with delta waves as far as brain activity.”
Master Haddad looked at the charts closely. “...

Picard in the foreground and Vannier in the back.
However in exosuit combat in the early chapters they both use railguns not pistols. They are the best shots of squad zero. Their skill is utilized in suppression, flanking and sniping roles.
