Sheeba Driver or Sheeba Process was, but I could figure out corrupted, disabled, and aborted.

“Crown to Control!” I hollered over comms. “Launch mechs!”

“Control to all Wings!” Ursa said over general comms, “By order of the king, Alpha Wing, launch! Gamma Wing, launch! Omega Wing, launch! Delta Wing, launch!”

Seconds later, the Dragonfire mechs jumped up in a rolling wave from where they stood on the launch deck, adding boot thrusters to gain altitude before cracking on afterburners to send them scorching toward the approaching horde. They went up in four separate groups distinguishable by color of the mech. Red, green, orange, blue. My guess was red was Alpha Wing, green was Gamma Wing, orange was Omega Wing, and blue was Delta Wing.

I shouted, “Any remaining guardswomen on the landing deck! Get ready to fight! Stop these demons any way you can, ladies! And stay safe!”

I was suddenly sickened by the thought of potential casualties for our side. Yesterday, Titano had killed only ten guardswomen. These CyberKnights and their space demon horde could easily kill hundreds before this battle was over.

Hopefully, if I moved fast, we would lose few if any guardswomen.

With any luck, none.

Was that too much to ask?

—: Chapter 34 :—

Total chaos.

No matter how fast I attacked the CyberKnight horde, I wasn’t fast enough.

One squadron of radiation-green and bat-winged rhinoceros demons flapped past a small platoon of guardswomen and sprayed them with some kind of green glowing Super Goo from their flamethrower-style backpacks and rifle hoses. The toxic goo instantly immobilized the guardswomen and plugged up their power armor thrusters. The guardswomen fell from the air like dead birds, splatting on the red dirt clearing surrounding the outpost, or landing on building roofs.

For a moment, I hoped luck was with us and the Super Goo had cushioned the falling guardswomen. Before I could take action, luck left the building.

Working in concert with the rhinoceros demons, the radiation-green CyberKnight fired a ghastly green geyser of energy from his lowered lance as he galloped through the air on his radiation-green robot horse. The green geyser drenched the Super-Gooed and already-immobilized guardswomen on the ground or the building rooftops as the CyberKnight passed. Almost instantly, the trapped guardswomen melted into green blobs that pooled on the red dirt or the rooftops in sludgy glowing puddles.

So much for Lady Luck, that hateful bitch. She was working for the other team today.

The black CyberKnight fired from his lance another horrid black beam that seemingly did nothing to the guardswomen in his line of fire. They passed quickly and seemingly safely through the deadly energy beam, but I knew better.

Seconds later, their armor corroded away to dust, revealing withered and shriveled women underneath. The black beam had instantly aged their armor by many millennia, and aged the guardswomen by hundreds of years, leaving them frail, confused, and frightened as they fell from the sky and smacked against the ground or bounced off outpost buildings with ghastly cracks.

It happened so fast, I never had time to use my ring’s POSITION vectors to save them.

Those women who had been at the edges of the black CyberKnight’s withering blast retained their armor, but the beam degraded their armor substantially, corroding holes and freezing joint articulations with rust. Their plasma thrusters sputtered weakly, barely able to keep the guardswomen aloft. Suddenly, the women didn’t know what to do and flew aimlessly around the air space, fighting to avoid crashing into each other or the ground instead of fighting against space demons.

“Get back to base!” I shouted at them over comms, hoping Major Akeso had some sort of anti-aging medicine in her future-tech toolkit. When the withered guardswomen didn’t respond, I shouted, “Captain Theia! Cover me! I’m going to get those women to safety!”

I rocketed toward them using my power armor thrusters and applied POSITION vectors to fly the women toward me as I approached. Behind me, my Shock Knights were blasting away at incoming demons with their wrist blasters.

Vwoop! Vwoop! Vwoop!

Once again, there hadn’t been time for my Shock Knights to get the more powerful ABR-17 rifles from the armory.

It quickly became apparent I could only vector a few of the withered guardswomen at a time. I followed the four I had snared and guided them back to the landing deck where more Dragonfire mechs were coming up the cargo elevators and jumping into the air battle.

“Take these women to Medical!” I shouted when I touched down and the withered guardswomen stumbled to their hands and knees. They were too frail to stand on their own. It was a sad sight.

An un-withered group of guardswomen waiting on the landing deck rushed over to help the withered women inside.

While the fighting continued, I went back to rescue more of the addled and frail guardswomen from the air. Three more trips and I had all of the survivors — the ones who hadn’t crashed to their deaths already — back on the landing deck.

At that moment, the black CyberKnight went swooping by, his robot horse galloping through the air. I rocketed after him, intent on extracting his and his steed’s MASS with my rings. When I came up behind him, his robot horse spun in the air without losing forward velocity, and he fired a withering blast from his black lance at me.

I barely dodged in time.

He fired several more blasts, but somehow I managed to dodge them all.

“Why isn’t he shrinking?!” I growled inside my helmet. No matter how much I concentrated on extracting his mass, it just wasn’t happening. I didn’t know if I was too distracted or he was moving around too much, but I had a fix for that.

Ring! I thought. Lock on the position of the black CyberKnight! Same as you did with Titano’s brain when he was thrashing around! No matter how much the CyberKnight moves, stay on him and extract his mass!

After several seconds, that didn’t seem to be working either.

Did he or his tower shield have some kind of resistance against mass extraction?

Sure
