Chapter 44 Peter's MRS.

One day ago, silence was in the underground space where batch 4 had all but lost. Nolan had beat 2 opponents and the other Bath 4th member had dealt with another 2 but the last fighter finished him off, evicting him in the process. And after the fight with George, the Cyborg lay on the ground and laughed as he panted hard.

"Good fight, my friend!"

It was Peter's victory that had given Batch 4 victory in the end.

"You can work for me."

So, fused robotic and human parts lay on the ground and with that pose, George seemed less human than he already was.

"Why?"

Unlike Peter who had his internals Changed, George was like a collage work of modeling art with metal and flesh interchanged as though his Maker thought careless of him.

"To stay and fight!"

George was going to make himself get evicted when he paused. The large Cyborg then let his eyes move from Peter to Nolan and then back.

"Will i get more of this?"

"Oh, yes."

"George smiled as engine oil and blood escaped his lips.

"Fine."

"I know what you want to say." Nolan had a hand up and smiled helplessly. "I will help you until my Batch Leader arrives."

A silence passed between them before Peter replied, "and after that?"

Noone spoke and Peter smiled wide like he had just won the lottery, understanding Nolan's position.

He could not make the boy switch sides after knowing for barely moe than a day.

"Fine with me, kid!"

Nolan scrunched his brows.

"Aren't you a kid too?"

"I just wanted to feel how Tumunomi Escaver did."

"Who is tha-" Nolan remembered and laughed. "Is he that oppressive?"

"Our speech patterns, reactions to action and our change in demeanor is not possible for our peers. True or not?'

"Yes, the Chip helps us close that gap once we build on our Operating Systems by downloading programs."

"That and our updates."

"Yes," Peter shrugged. "I don't think Tumunomi Escaver woild lose to someone like George even if he had no Chip." Peter too remembers something and continued speaking. "Imagine what Derek was like."

Shrugging again he walked forward, and stretched out an arm.

"What is it that is down here?"

George took his arm and wobbled as sparks spilled from some of his joints. "It is called a Mecha Soldier."

He staggered forward as he scowled at his one ruined foot. "I might need to get evicted before that is fixed."

"Nah," Peter smiled. "I was told we can be fixed.

"What do you mean?"

"You see, Restorative Balm and Restoration Balm are similar but different."

George looked confused as they headed down in darkness.

"Restorative Balm works exclusively for flesh, but Restoration Balm can help with internal injuries for non humans even." Peter then pulled out 2 potions out of his Cavity Bracelet and tossed it to George who caught it effortlessly.

"This is EngineFuel which restores the adrenaline faster than usual and helps to lubricate stiff joints." George drank it without thinking.

"The other one is MechanicOil, test it yourself."

After gulping it, George felt a heat in his chest as heat sored from his kips down through his spine and finally ended at the tip of his toes.

"What did you give me!"

He began shaking and sweet fell from his face as his the dents puffed out to their original condition and holes in his mechanical parts closed up.

"What do you think?"

Springing back to his feet, he gazed at his body in shock.

"This is good stuff."

"Ha, this way. This way."

George ran for about 15 meters where Peter noticed that the direction of sound bouncing off the walls had changed. So, he could tell this room was different in its shape.

It felt more like a Rhomboid as his enhanced brain had calculated and surmised just from the sound.

"Stand here."

Even in the dark there was a dim scarlet dot on an area in the floor. And it would not have been seen at first from where it was because it was positioned atop a chair that looked like a merge between a bean bag and a swinging chair.

"What will happen?"

"Tsk! Just do it, sissy!"

Peter scoffed and stepped forward.

"You attempts at goading are futile and chi-"

Peter suddenly switched off and slumped on the chair and Nola pointed a gun to George's head.

"Hey! You play dirty!"

"Shut up and wait!"

Eyeing Nolan, the other boy shook but held his ground even as the final of George's Batch Member turned to him and was combat ready.

Every passing second dropped Nolan's eye and further accentuated his anger and the closeness of his index finger on the trigger for his final bullet.

Then, suddenly, Peter snapped back to reality and taking a deep breath as he did.

*SYNCHRONIZATION 100

PERCENT*

Peter's eyes grew in shock as well as Nolan's because a voice was all around them as lights lit up their space. And in Nolans eyes, the room truly resembled a Rhomboid on the inside. Other unique seats stood 10 meters away from Peter as a Workstation spread from half way across the room, spanning from the right end to the east.

In Peter's mind he saw the skeletal head of a Reptilian creature with a spine that stretches for at least 100 meters.

BOOT SEQUENCE BEGUN.

BOOT SEQUENCE LOADING.

Peter was not the only one hearing it and Nolan now looked at George who smiled at him.

"It would be an insult to attack a winner."

WEAPONS SYSTEM LOADING

SELF DEFENSE SYSTEM LOADING

George then went to seat down in the seat directly away from Peter and the Omnidirectional voice spoke again.

*DO YOU WISH TO BOOT THE SYSTEM?*

*SECONDARY CONTROL UNIT HAS BEEN ACTIVATED*

Peter approved it as he saw George both in the physical and in his mind he also saw the capabilities of what he was in.

Peter smiled and then looked forth.

"*SLITHER.*"

Now the room was entirely bright and it seemed like a tunnel. The head, now moving first turned upward but the people on the seat had no problem. And if Nolan and the other Batch 6th member had Chips, they would have become Secondary or Tertiary members but they did not have one.
