Chapter 48 Challenge Accepted.
329 Words
Keila was heading towards Alicia’s position in an unarmed shuttle, accompanied by a strike team. The strike team was people from Eden that she had trained in modern combat, since she took over on Eden six months earlier and started to modernise the Edenite society. She had left Metatron and the Angels back on Eden for two reasons:
- If she was to walk into a trap and die, she wanted Metatron and his Angels to rule and modernise the Edenites. She cared about the people of Eden, and they were not ready to govern themselves yet.
- She wanted to test the Zetan non-encrypted bionic chip disruptor in action. Keila assumed that Alicia and her squad also had unprotected implanted microchips that would be affected. The angels had a lot of implanted microchips that would be affected by the device and make them perform poorly in combat. With Alicia’s group incapacitated when their bionic was disrupted, Keila and her inexperienced team would be able to kill their foes, with ease. The Divine Technology microchips that she and her troops had implanted were of Zetan design and were not affected by the disruptor as they were encrypted and more advanced.
Keila recalled the conversation she had had with Metatron before she left. He had wanted to relay the information to the Terran Council and let them deal with Alicia. It was known common knowledge that Alicia had gone rogue and the Council had a warrant out for Alicia’s arrest. While this solution had made logical sense, Keila had refused it. Alicia’s death was a personal vendetta for Keila, as the freak had slaughtered her hometown with biological weapons and tortured and murdered her close friend, Josh, in front of the camera, just to mock her.
They were approaching the Moreno outpost where Alicia was hiding. “Be ready for anything!” Keila told her troops as they docked with the outpost.
