"You got me good but anyone can make an educated guess and still be right."He held her and stopped the bus, he got home and Mort stood back with Amir who pulled down his eyelid and did a raspberry.

Zack brought her to him.

"Surprise?" He said grinning.

Mort grabbed her. "What were you thinking?"

"I'll explain later. I gotta go." He jogged back to work.

He went to work sweaty and Mr Brunner spoke to an important businessman. He got several burritos and the vendor was looking at him funny.

"Zack, where have you been?"

"Ah, I brought snacks."

"All right, Trevor."

They took their share and Zack looked depressed. "That was my lunch."

Novalie overheard that and raised her eyebrows.

"Our lunch of course. Thanks for having my back."

She curled her hand. "No thanks necessary. It's no big deal."

"Was it? I kinda thought it was." He said.

She scoffed. "Back to work mode."

Zack brushed his face. He was ready for some action but he wasn't going out anytime soon.

"Would you like to have dinner?

    He let Novalie out first and he met Gwen at the porch.She frowned at Novalie. "Zack, what are you doing here so late at night? With her?""This is my coworker." He said grinning. "Price. Price, this is Gwen."Novalie eyed her thoughtfully. "Pleased to meet you." Gwen shook her hand firmly. "Likewise."Novalie let go. "You have a firm grip. I'll see you when I see you, Zack. I had a nice time."Gwen fumed in anger."Is something wrong?""I see you have other priorities.""It isn't what it looks like.""Oh no, you don't have to explain yourself. I understand perfectly." She said curtly."You do? Perfect, what are you doing here anyway." "I had dinner just across the street and I happened to see you.""Oof. Am I missing something?""Did you have this dinner in mind?""Actually, I was kind of hungry and she asked me out. I agreed.""Is that so? Was it before or after I asked?""That was after, geez, nothing to it. No need to get so worked up. I said no.""I am not overwhelmed, I just ne

    Zack went about searching for any trouble, making sure no one got hurt or him, he recorded this time through the helmet cam, it was very vital. He didn't want any misunderstandings to ensue, especially after Petra or Chazzon. He spotted a lady struggling with a man in black. She held on to the end of the purse. "Help! This man's stealing my purse!" The lady shouted raising the alarm.The man was physically stronger.A girl screamed in the background. "Thief!""Jesus, let go, woman!" He seemed terrorized that people would catch him. Zack noticed the man's eyes flying both ways to the crowd, to the girl, he turned pale. He softened succumbing on his own and at the knight coming. He couldn't seem to leave the lady.Zack rushed towards them and he pushed the man into a bench. "Oof!" He handed the purse to the lady who smiled. "Thanks, pal, you're a real one." She said running away."Don't worry folks, your saviour has arrived!" "My purse!" The girl shouted. "Dad! The bad man let

    Gwen returned from her trip to Morphius. She was eager to see Zack and she called Amir. She had something important to discuss with him. "Jamila, I don't know where he is." Amir said surprised that she spoke to him. Usually she was accustomed to speaking with Mort and Zack. "I would be happy to find him for you.""That's very kind of you." Her parents had followed her to Terra and they were eager to explore earth for themselves.Her father disapproved. "This place is archaic.""Why did you change your name? Have you forgotten your roots?" "It's a terrible name.""So what?" Her mother covered her mouth. Gwen smiled at them. "I'm so glad that you've come to Earth.""Are there any patrol bots. Flying cars? Why is the vegetation so scanty?" Her mother said anxiously. Trying to touch a marigold."The aliens look just like us.""Astonishing." He pushed up his glasses at the people staring at them.Gwen felt very proud. "You'll have to fit in around here.""My robe looks perfectly fine."

    "Don't call me, Sergeant.""Aren't you a sergeant?" He said upclose."It sounds uncomfortable coming from you.""What do I call you then?""Nothing." She whispered. Zack groaned in long-suffering knowing that she was being serious. She was boggling him down with all this overthinking."What's wrong?""We're having dinner. Tonight."They sat back and Arwatt her father and Mayne gazed at their plate of food."I made them especially for you."Mayne lifted a piece of bacon repugnantly. "What is this?"Arwatt dug into his dinner without thinking twice. "I suppose I can eat after all that walking.""There's more where that came from. I overcooked.""I am not complaining." Arwatt said."This is where you live?" Mayne said. She winced at a cockroach scaling up the wall, her skin crawled and Seymour lunged to grab it. The paint chipped off."An organic pest control service. I like it." Arwatt said.Zack promised not to be negligent with Seymour so he gave him a piece of bacon and brushed his f

    Zack brushed Seymour's fur. He fumed at Mayne's attitude. He wasn't bothered but he wondered why Gwen would lie to her parents about the message.He lowered the cannister with the creature in it into a box. He wanted to speak to her face-to-face.She was online. "Babe..." He deleted that and typed hi instead."I saw the news. This is terrible. Why would anyone do such a thing?" She jumped into the core of the topic."That's not important right now. ""Really?"He typed. "You promised you would communicate." "Communicate what?""You know talk to me. About anything. Is it really worth putting a bar between us? Did I hurt you?"Gwen glanced at her father sleeping in. "No."He exhaled. "Then why did you lie about that nuptial pact?""I did not lie.""You didn't? Then why weren't you interested?" "I was...""Why not?" He dropped the laptop torn to pieces. Zack watched her entering the apartment. He was enchanted by her statuette body. Her dark hair flowed down her shoulders."What are y

    "You cannot believe the magic that this machine makes." Arwatt arrived with the device and a bag."What is it?""Nothing dad." Gwen said defensively. Arwatt blinked. "I mean, how does this thing operate?" Gwen glanced at him in surprise and put the bread in the toaster.He clapped when the bread popped out. "What is this?""It's called toast."He looked concerned for her, she folded her arms. "Is anything wrong?"She sighed. "You don't seem too excited.""I was, I think your attitude change comes as quite a shock to the both of us. So we needed to see for ourselves what happened. We want what's best for you. And that is what you want."She pursed her lips. "I don't want to get married. Mother thinks I don't know any better. I'm afraid she's telling the truth.""I'm very confused. Do you want to get married or do you not want to?"She admired her father for his adaptability. Nothing came as quite a shock to him as it did to mother. "I'm afraid I've disappointed her. I'm ready to giv

    He had to do this without Gwen's knowledge even though he just told her that they had to work together as a team. He was going against what he stood for to save the others. He wondered how Mort would feel about delivering the Dr. Into Plagg's hands as well. It was for the greater good. He recalled that Dr Raleigh said the Plague was out to kill him. "He was right." Zack shuddered. "Okay, you've done this before." His eyes were glassy and he swallowed hard trying to navigate. Ash reproduced many of his files. Tom Raleigh was a biologist, besides that there was nothing much on him. Except his Tax ID.He stopped at his house on a hill.Dr Raleigh winced at the Knight."Dr.""Knight...you came.""I have a sample I'd like to show you."He shuddered at the creatures."Can you find something about this? I have only 7 days to figure out its weakness. I want to kill it. It appears that the Xenobyte possesses a unimind. This being is intelligent. It think it's a legion or som_""You're after

    Mayne moved about the mobile home. She glanced at a picture of Zack with his arms around Zed's shoulders. She wondered where Gwen was.Mort arrived at Gwen's place. "Gwen?"Mayne sat up. "Who are you?" She erratically. "Do not come into our home. Where is the Guard Dog for goodness sake?""I'm a friend of hers." He said and the rosiness in her face vanished."He speaks our language. What shall we do?""Who are you two?" Mort said losing his usual demeanor. His garrote lowered."We're Oogie's parents." She said."Really? Cool.""You're human?""Yes." "Good, I'd like to understand how this works." He held up a toilet plunger."Arwatt. He's a stranger.""We'll save that for later. I need to ask where she is, it's really important and Zack's missing.""We haven't seen him in about a week.""Something must be wrong." Mort said. "I'll go look for her.""We're coming with you." Arwatt said.They sat uncomfortably in the ship."Are you sure you know how to operate this?""I've had practice."

    Zack wanted to leave a mark but he was afraid that he would go down with the authorities. It was against the law to distribute without a license but there were so many starving.He felt like he was being drawn from different directions. He couldn't bring himself to close up, but Vorax told him they would have to keep this a secret but to what end? He was paralyzed, they wanted different things.He gave out foodstuff and passed out water. He watched the cameras as a man in a white robe approached."Do you know who this is?" Vorax could have not been more paler. He kept his composure and arrived at the door.Zack approached the door."Open up at once."The security guards were infuriated."We did not approve of this activity."Vorax glanced at Zack.

    The lieutenant colonel and the rest of the MST joined Gwen and they watched the ship leave. She turned off her comms. Hoping she didn't make a mistake by letting him go.Echo, Lance and Raymond gathered. "I've done a research_""Since when?" Raymond asked recovering."Since now. He was right. We're going after him." Lance said.Raymond felt guilty for betraying Zack.... Zack watched space, it was incredibly dark. He smiled at the galaxies. "This will never get old." He expected a blow to the head but Vorax joined him."It's nothing new."He gazed at the interiors. "So this is what it feels like to be inside of Zoldor." "You'll get used to it." Zack retorted.Vorax glanced at him and his eyes crinkled. They stood in the awkward silence."So, how long have you been on combat training?""A millennium.""How old are you?""2500, that's 25 in the Terran time zone.""You're 25?""Is that wrong?" He asked."Do you think it's wrong?" Zack watched him intrigued. He waited as he put the Zo

    "Of course not, you can trust me.""Well, you're wrong for taking their side. Your people can be wrong too." He said walking faster."You're giving it away after all you've been through?""I know, I just need to have a little faith." He said. "Besides the videos."She shut her eyes. "Oh...You're going against everything you've stood for just to help someone you barely even know. You're risking your career.""I don't have time for this. I don't stand for this either, I'm on his side and there's nothing they or you can do about it."He focused on the camera and left."Who are they?" Gwen folded her arms.He walked away from her. Zack approached Vorax alone, the behemoths turned their heads and parted ways when he walked boldly and swiftly towards Vorax who was sitting on a chair. He didn't know what he was grappling with.He had to save the Thegronians against all odds."I suppose your way did not work," Vorax said.Zack dropped his kit in the ship. He was done talking.

    Zack watched the images of his predecessors by flicking a button. He recalled what Deuce had said to him, he didn't seem pleased. "I lost." He buried his head inbetween his knees. He frowned clenching his hand. He couldn't just sit there and sulk. He hefted a sword swinging it. He wouldn't let Vorax beat him so easily."Combat mode." The sparring bots emerged from their chambers to attack him, their eyes flashed red running at him.Zack kicked back to dodged the shots. Gwen watched as he ravaged through the hourde swinging the staff. He jumped mildly twisting his body to stab the bot. He grabbed one by the core and squeezed it. Throwing it against the metallic wall, it dented. Another tossed a rock at him. He flipped over its head and he blasted it with a watch. He twisted kicking another. It had him in a crossbody position. Zack yanked its arm off causing himself to fall upside down. He grabbed its head inbetween his legs and tossed it to the wall. Gwen arrived at the control r

    Zack had a lot to accomplish. He couldn't act with his colleagues. He rushed towards Lance who watched from afar.In the arena secluded for training. Zack and Lance exchanged blows and their swords clashed.Zack flipped over his head and landed on the tip of his toes. He gasped gazing at the tear on his suit."I am the fastest thing alive." Lance boasted grinning.Echo rolled her eyes watching from the nosebleed.Gwen watched biting her lower lip."What do you even see in that guy? He's obviously fighting a losing battle."Gwen frowned acknowledging it but she couldn't help it. "You're doing great."Zack held up his buffer barely registering her words. He knew Lance was holding back. None of it felt satisfactory. He gave it all he had to see how sharp his reflexes were.Lance waved a hand to his mouth yawning and he blocked his fist. Tossing him to the other side. He turned to the girls. "I am the greatest gladiator in all of Morphius_"Zack punched him. Lance landed on his face."Tha

    Amidst the solitude, Zack sat alone in his spacious house, the silence around him as heavy as the weight he was about to lift. Echo, once his constant companion, had also ventured into the world of employment, leaving Zack with his thoughts. He decided to fill the empty wall with inspiration, pinning a poster of his favorite bodybuilder as a daily reminder of his goals.With determination burning in his eyes, Zack grasped the dumbbells, ready to push himself to new limits. "I'm gonna get stronger. Better," he muttered as he launched into his workout.Each rep felt like a step closer to his aspirations, and with each record-breaking lift, Zack's motivation soared.

    Zack and Gwen arrived at the house, their eyes taking in the impressive sight before them. "Pretty wild, isn't it?" Zack commented, his excitement palpable.Gwen glanced at the well-maintained lawn and the spacious garage. "It's beautiful," she replied, her voice filled with admiration.They stepped inside, exploring each room with curiosity. "Five bedrooms," Zack noted, mentally calculating the potential."That's a fair deal," Gwen muttered, her mind already sorting through financial plans.Zack leaned closer to her, his voice lowered. "Say, 10-14 years, and I'll be out of debt," he whispered."Why are you whispering?" Gwen asked, puzzled by his privacy. Her question echoed in the empty room, eliciting a chuckle from Zack.He rolled his eyes playfully and gestured towards a walk-in closet. "We have a walk-in closet too," he declared, attempting to change the subject."Why didn't you tell me you were getting a house?" Gwen questioned, a mix of surprise and annoyance in her voice."Beca
