"Can you infiltrate their network?" Tucker asked Cass. He didn't like operating blind, but it was one of those things that nearly always happened during a battle. The plans changed, and there were no ways to get updates. "I'm being slow and...

"Any idea what kind of sensors we're dealing with?" Theo asked, as the hover landed in a copse of trees. "I didn't see anything through the hover's passive sensors, but the range on this is only five hundred meters." I looked at Tucker, who...

"There's our ride," Tucker said, pointing to the sky. Theo searched the area until a section zoomed in, and he saw a small dot. "This is new," he said. "I'm using the armor's connection to the network to access the satellite," Cass replied,...

He landed before the Vanguard soldier, his mind controlling the armor instead of moving his body. He swung, the ridges of his knuckles forming into spikes, disruptive nano-materials coating it. He gouged a line through the armor, and the sensors...

"Are we there yet?" Theo asked. "That wasn't funny the first time," Cass replied, "It is not funny now." Theo looked at the water under them, the jutting rocks in the distances. "If I'd known it would be this boring, I might have reconsidered...

The walk to the control room took them down the stairs again and past too many people who didn't pay either of them any attention. Tucker didn't like it. Infiltrations never went this smoothly; it was a miracle no one in that room had managed to call...

"Why?" Tucker growled, looking at the hovers on the landing pads. "Why the fuck would he do this?" "I don't know," Uncle replied. "I've gone over every interaction I've had with him, and there were no indications he was planning anything." "He...

The restaurant was a casual place on the hundredth eighty-eighth floor of the Orr corporate tower. The floor was designed to attract families, with stores, hotels and an amusement park; it made for a less nude environment. Theo was pleased, if a little...

The knock on the door came and went. Theo didn't look up from his work. If there was one thing these last few months had given him, it was time to practice his sculpting. He'd let that lapse over the last few years of near-constant work. The knock...

"Hurry!" Tucker yelled over his shoulder. "If we're late grandma is going to take him away!" Trevor grumbled something, trailing after his brother, then raised his voice. "I'm missing a guild quest, Tucker!" Tuck turned, running backward, "Lands...
