Ta'Nakh was viewing his battle plan.
All of his armies were ready to go.
This take over should be easy.
Once this was all set in motion, he could rid himself of Craig Benson.
He recalled the quivering mess he had been when he was first commanded to act in the role he was.
The biggest failure was failing to provide a battery to power his Weapon.
D'Jok wasn't as powerful as they hoped.
There really was only one viable choice.
He had to get his hands on Sonny Blackbones.
Corso was at Tecnoid's prison on Genesis, where the rescued scientists were. Kuun and Clamp were with him.
Duke Maddox soon joined them with Brim Balarius and Dame Simbai.
Quite a lot of the Scientists came from Bertrand's rebels. He wouldn't like this.
Bertrand sent out secret orders to his second in command, Cody, to look into who contacted Benson.
"If you find the mole, lock him up." Bertrand ordered.
Cody nodded.
Bertrand ended the call.
"I hate it when I have to suspect my own people." Bertrand confessed, looking at Sonny.
Sonny held a test tube in his hand, and put on protective, tinted goggles.
"I think I have just the thing to lure Benson out; Me." He said.
Bertrand smiled.
"How do you know he will take the bait?" He wondered.
Sonny grinned.
"His pride will be his downfall," He said.
Bertrand nodded.
"What about your family? They won't agree with this. This is very risky" He reminded Sonny.
Sonny nodded.
"We have clones, you know?" He said.
Bertrand nodded.
"We don't know where they will strike first, or when, though. Do we have any overview of his armies and their locations?" He asked.
Sonny nodded.
"They're on multiple planets as of now, but I'm sure we have most of them registered." He said.
Bertrand agreed.
"Lets not underestimate them. The Andro zygnans wouldn't have gotten this far if they were easily fooled." He said.
Sonny nodded.
"Let's find out if they take the bait." He said.
Bertrand nodded, as they returned to the plan.
The scientists looked scared as they were brought into Technoid's interrogation rooms.
Corso tried to be soft with them because of that. Having Kuun next to him helped.
The scientists told him all they knew.
All the scientists had been set up by one of their own.
Craig Benson had been their self appointed leader, and that wasn't great for any of them.
While they were held captive, Craig Benson could move around in the galaxy, doing the warlord Ta'Nahk's bidding.
That puzzled Corso.
Ta'Nahk wouldn't have been this sloppy.
Then, one of the Chissian scientists said something that caught Corso's ear.
"The Andro Zygnans can't show themselves in their true form here. They need a host, to communicate with us directly. Craig struck a deal with them to act as a host body. He was responsible for the Super Soldiers Andro Zygna uses. It was a part of what wiped out platoon forty-four on Ascaron.." The Chissian said.
Corso sighed.
"Operation Scout." He said, pushing back memories.
Kuun nodded.
The Chissian scientists looked baffled.
"How could you know that? Everyone was killed.." He said.
Kuun nodded.
"Someone did. A single soldier survived to tell the tale" He said, putting a hand on Corso's arm.
The Chissian scientists gasped, realising what a lie they had been told, and the horror of what Ascaron had actually been.
One of the Abraxians stood up, his yellow eyes shining with passion.
"My people will do anything to prevent such a thing from happening again." He said, with the other eleven nodding behind him.
The eleven Chissans also nodded in agreement.
Corso nodded.
He was going to contact Sonny.
Sonny and Bertrand listened carefully as Corso filled them in.
"Craig Benson really gets around. Or we're talking clones." He mused.
Corso nodded, but he was skeptical.
"Sonny, these Andro Zygnans need a host body to even be able to operate in our Galaxy. What if they use clone bodies? Technoid might be able to mass produce those." Corso said.
Sonny rubbed his chin, turning to Duke Maddox.
"Make sure they can't use yours. Corso, Tell Artie and Bennett to assemble a team that can find something to keep out of people's heads." He said.
Corso looked at him.
"Just keep away from the front lines for everybody's sake." He said.
"By your command Corso. But you just come back safely, alright?" Sonny retorted.
Corso sighed.
"Got it. Let's just make the most of tonight." He said.
Sonny grinned.
"Let's make it a good night." He said.
Corso smirked.
"By your Command Sonny." He said.
So,Sonny has figured out a way to get to the enemy.
Craig Benson seems to have his hands all over this.
Is he a host body for the Andro Zygians?
Will Sonny's plan work?
All this, and more to come.
