Chapter 10: A.G.W.S. Battle
It was approximately two hours, six minutes, and twenty-four seconds later that the navigations and research realian Akita had first come to see Kos- mos. Now she was back, only this time a slim athletic man with black hair and piercing brown eyes accompanied her. Whom the blue haired android assumed was Yotomi Kar're.
"Ah, so you're up and running. That's all and well, for it seems that I can't tap your databank while you're shut down. What ever that Uzuki did to prevent that was very clever." Yotomi set down a metal briefcase and walked up to Kos-mos, "Don't worry my dear, I shall keep you in tact after I'm through. You're too valuable a piece of technology to put to waist."
"I do not exist for your amusement or pleasure. Or your component for information."
Yotomi laughed, "We'll see."
Kos-mos saw Akita look away in shame.
"Akita dear, hook into the main comp for me. We need to do a little preparation."
The silver and purple haired realian reached behind her ear and pulled out a jack and cord. She hooked up to the center terminal. Her eyes rolled back for a quick moment, "Connection complete."
"Good," Yotomi grinned at Kos-mos before turning away, "begin scans." The crime lord ordered. Akita hesitated, but her programming was too strong for her to resist. So with a forlorn look at Kos-mos, she began her duties.
Kos-mos' sight zoomed in on the cord that connected the realian and selected it. Maybe there was a 25% chance she could escape.

"And why are we going to this location chaos?" Tony asked as he jerked the Elsa to avoid yet another collision. A cargo ship was not exactly your top on the list ship to navigate an asteroid field.
"Do you have a better place to look?"
chaos, Tony thought with a twitch of annoyance, always answering with a question.
Alan pointed, "What's that?"
Everyone looked where the co-worker was pointing. It was a particularly huge hunk a rock that didn't seem to be spinning randomly or anything.
"That looks like a good place for a base." chaos pointed out.
Mathews turned, "Hey Miss Vector, can you track Kos-mos in there?"
Shion's fingers ran across the keyboard. Her face lit up, "Yes! She's somewhere near the top inside."
"Well there ya have it. But how are we gonna get inside is my question. I doubt they'd let us in freely." Mathews mumbled, sarcasm dripping from his words. chaos noted that Hammer was looking at him out of the corner of his eye.
Alarms suddenly rang throughout the Elsa. Red lights began flashing steadily, "Uh oh." Shion glanced at her screen, "We've got company."
"Activating defense system." chaos informed.
Guns popped out of their containers all around the Elsa and began firing upon the oncoming A.G.W.S's. The ship shook heavily as the pirates retaliated. Ziggy, MOMO, and Jr. had appeared to see what was happening.
"Captain." Everyone turned to chaos, "They aren't going to destroy the ship. They're disarming it first. They want to come inside."
"What?! Why? To strip everything 'then' blow it to bits?"
"This cargo ship doesn't really hold much of value to this crime lord."
Everyone turned to MOMO.
Ziggy glared, "No one is getting their filthy hands on her,"
Shion stood up, "We have our A.G.W.S.'s. Ziggy, you can use the VX-4000. WE can eliminate them and then head for the astroid."
"Let's go!" Jr. yelled.
"Careful chief!"
"Oh Alan aren't i MOMO watched them as they left, knowing all to well that she was not going. Jr. gave her a reassuring smile before following chaos and Shion. Ziggy lagged behind.
The cyborg looked first at Alan, then at the rest of the crew, "Take care of her."
Alan gripped the realians shoulders, "Don't worry Zig, you can count on us." Ziggy nodded, then ran after the others. MOMO looked almost annoyed as her guardian left.
"I can take care of myself you know!" she yelled after the doors shut behind him.
Jr. whipped off his black coat and crawled into his snug VX-7000, "Woohooo! Hit it captain!" There was a burst of depressurization smoke as the hanger bay doors opened. Already pirates were lined up and ready to enter.
Shion sped forward, slicing through the pirates with her giant Vibro blade. Jr. leaped out of the hanger close on Shion's tail and started locking on with his missiles. The A.G.W.S. that Ziggy was in was small and not meant for much damage, but it was speedy enough to make up for that.
chaos remained behind, "Captain, close hanger bay doors!" Almost instantly the huge doors slid closed and locked into place. The AG-02 sprung away and began firing a rapid stream of lasers. chaos kept his aim true and steady, each pirate not being able to escape the stubborn teen. He didn't notice the green black vein that was creeping up his neck.
Jr. rammed into a pirate that was sneaking up behind the VX-10000, "Watch your back Shion!"
The red AG.W.S.'s put its huge gun over its shoulder and fired. The shot just grazing the head cockpit, "And watch yours."
The red head rolled his eyes. A second later red lights caught his attention, "Ten more are coming!"
The three battle robots engaged the oncoming enemies once more. Ziggy used the asteroids to his advantage, managing to blow up several by just playing follow me.
This is getting us nowhere, chaos thought. His translucent blue eyes strayed to the asteroid base; maybe he could take another risk.
"Ziggy, Jr. everyone! Deactivate your scanners."
"You've gotta be kidding chaos." Mathews' voice was slightly covered in static.
Jr. spoke next, "Why chaos? Then we won't know if they're behind us or something."
"You won't be able to use them at all if you don't listen to me. Deactivate them now!"
There was silence for a second, then everyone acknowledged. chaos watched his own screen go black. He closed his eyes. Shion and the others didn't notice at first, but a strange glow was starting to stem from his cockpit.
"What---? That looks like MOMO's flawed Hilbert Effect." Shion murmured. The wave of multi colored energy became a shockwave and smacked into the pirate A.G.W.S.'s. chaos pulled the energy back and then sent it toward the base. The effect engulfed the asteroid completely.
"Alert! Alert!" a robotic female voice echoed over and over. Yotomi looked up in annoyance, "Found us already? That was fast." He looked over at Akita, "Are you done yet?" The lights flickered. Yotomi flipped a switch, "Get the emergency generators going. I don't want this station to shut down."
"Yes sir." Replied a voice.
"Scanning complete. Ready to begin uploads." The realian didn't mention she could feel Kos-mos hacking into her neural net. She had to admit, the android was good for not alerting her master's defense system. Let's just hope Kos-mos can get through to my main program before we start. Akita thought.
"chaos what the heck was that?!" Jr. yelled.
The silver haired teen took a few breaths, "You can activate your scanners now. We have to make it to the base's hanger before their home guns come back online." Without waiting for an answer the AG-02 jetted to the pirate base. Jr. looked over at Shion who he could just see through her cockpit screen. The Vector employee shook her head, then followed.
Ziggy blew apart the turrets surrounding the base's closed hanger doorway.
"Don't get close yet you guys." Several missiles shot from Jr.'s A.G.W.S. to obliterate the doors. chaos entered first, followed by Shion, then Ziggy and Jr. Shion's guns shot down the men and realians left in the hanger, plus the preparing A.G.W.S'. An energy shield covered the open doorway to prevent any further damage. Instantly chaos jumped down from his huge battle machine. He reached into his pouch for a shot of Teelaho, and then shattered the needle on the ground.
Jr. threw on his coat before jumping off his A.G.W.S. he spun his guns around his forefingers, "Let's go get em'!" The quad ran through the wreckage and corpses to a hallway leading up.

Kos-mos slipped passed another firewall undetected. This wasn't going as fast as she liked. Yotomi continued about his preparations without a worry that Shion and the others were inside his base.

Akita's eyes flashed with her calculations and the many other things she was doing at the same time. Come on Kos-mos, set me free. And I will repay you.
95%
"Preparations complete Master Kar're." Akita informed.
"Good, I'll admit my lovely flower you actually beat me this time Akita. Standby while I finish up here." said Yotomi.
100%
Akita felt Kos-mos access her main programming and begin erasing the chains that bound her mind. A red light started blinking on Yotomi's wrist terminal. He whipped around in time to see his realian lounge toward him. With lightning movements, Akita snatched the gun from Yotomi's belt and jabbed it into his chest.
"How does it feel to not be in control anymore?"
The crime lord's tone was calm despite the situation, "Not good. I can't believe that Uzuki would program hacking abilities inside a battle android.
"Your assumption is incorrect. Shion did not install that ability."
"Really? Then who did?"
"That information is not available to you."
The floor shook violently and Yotomi took the moment to grab the pistol. But the realian was strong and stubborn, not about to let the thrall master take away her knew found freedom. The two wrestled each other all over the room, Akita keeping her grip firm on the handle.
Kos-mos watched helplessly as human and synthetic battled for dominance. Akita kicked the man and sent him flying. She cocked the gun, "Charging," purple and silver Ether spiraled around her body, gathering at the tip of the pistol, "Lilac Shot!" the realian fired. The bullet that left the barrel caught the Ether and turned into a glowing crystallized mini bomb. Unfortunately being Akita's up grader, Yotomi was already prepared for something like this.
He activated the device on his arm and a reddish aura surrounded him just in time. The after effect of the Lilac Shot was instantly absorbed and then sent back to its owner. Akita sidestepped in time to avoid her own attack. Yotomi reached under a terminal to snatch up an extra gun.
"Sorry my sweat rose. But I still need you later on for the Y-Data container." He managed to shoot the realian in the shoulder. The paralysis poison coated bullet even had an affect on realians since they, in a sense had flesh. Akita was slumped against the wall in dismay, her body growing numb. Yotomi shook his head, "Such bad manners Akita. I'll be sure to put your programming back in as soon as I'm done with your friend." He set the gun down which fell to the floor when the base shook again.
Yotomi looked around irritably, "What is happening?" he asked through a speaker.
The reply was staticy at first, then cleared up, "Master Kar're, we can't hold this kid back! He's not---." His voice was cut off by a gurgling sound.
"Hello?" Yotomi swore, "Get more men down there. Do not let them get to the main deck!"
"Yes sir!" came a different voice. Yotomi turned back to Kos-mos, "We'd better get started." He pressed a few buttons and a robotic voice replied, "Beginning invasion."
Mission Status: Failure
Kos-mos suddenly threw her head back as Yotomi forcefully entered her and began attacking her firewalls relentlessly. The android began to shudder, her machinery straining.
