And he even went further by getting rid of her current Sandevistan and upgraded her to a Qiant Sandevistan MK.4.

Rich had given Rita mass adjustments and made it so that she looked no different then before.

But at this point.

She was just as equipped as he was and the majority of Maelstrom.

Which means she was at risk of Cyberpsychosis.

Already Rich's mind was going 100 miles an hour telling him of what she would have to go through as Bjorn flashed in his mind.

He immediately shook that off.

Rita was not Maelstrom.

He was not going to push her towards being experimented on and going through Rituals.

Just to push her mind and body to be able to handle the stress of having the Cyberware.

He needed to come up with another way to manage her, to make sure she didn't go over her limit and push herself into Cyberpsychosis.

"Damn it, What have I done to her"

Was all he can think of as all he did was give her the tech that could turn her into a light Adam Smasher.

Rita was resting after all the work done on her but he didn't know what to do.

He did this because he didn't want her to get herself killed.

But it seems all he did was give her the option to speed up the process.

He didn't want to wake Rita so he decided to fuck around with the box.

He still didn't know what the fuck he was supposed to do to open it.

He had tried knocking patterns, he had tried detonating it to pieces, unloaded all sorts of ammunition onto it and it would survive without a scratch.

He gave up and was now just flipping it on each side until something happened.

Nothing was working.

As his worries only grew as time passed.

Eventually he grew tired of messing with the box and woke up Rita.

She was groggy, annoyed, and looked at him as if he ate her lunch or something.

He watched as she got a look at herself, her arms looked normal yet she felt physically lighter.

"How much do I owe you now"

"More then you'll ever make In your life time, so don't worry about it"

"I'll try to make up for it, somehow"

"I told you Don't. Worry. About it, if I didn't want to give you this tech I wouldn't have done it"

"Well now, how much of a badass am I now, Doc"

"An Inbalanced, Borderline Cyberpsycho kind"

"Holy shit, you put That much in me"

"I put what I thought would be beneficial for you and your style, run a diagnosticon yourself"

"Wow, I can't believe you put this much in me, I don't know if I'll be able to manage it all to be honest, if I put too much into one thing or to little well it be enough"

"Well it's all high grade shit, which also don't use your Sandevistan, for the next few week I'll come by and I'll help train you and get you used too balancing out your power input with your new Cybernetics, well test out all your new toys but my main issue is you going over the limit"

"I'll try to keep things underwraps when shit hits the fan"

"Bullshit, desperate situations call for desperate solutions and I'm no stranger to doing shit that needs to be done even if myself is at risk"

"Then what do I do"

"I'm currently looking for an alternative to that problem, but for now don't use your Sandevistan and only use 5 of your Cybernetics"

"Such as"

"Smart Link, Microrotors, Kiroshi Optics Microvibration Generator, and your set of Syn-Lungs"

"Okay, very specefic, but why don't you want me to use the rest of what you gave me specifically my Sandevistan"

"The upgrade for the Sandevistan I gave is really, really, good but it takes a toll on your physical body and can push anybody that isn't prepared to Cyberpsychosis"

"The reason I don't want you to use the other tech is because I want to break you in and show how to use each properly and so we can find the rate of how much power to put into them"

"I know my way around Cybernetics, I don't need a babysitter"

"Yeah you know your way around cheap chop doc tech, the tech I put in you is top of line, you won't have to put much power in them which is why we need to find the rate of how much power to input"

Rita gave Rich this dark look as if she was going to kill him.

And then she puffed her cheeks, and suddenly a look of murder was turned into a joke.

Then Mateo walked in.

"Seems like everything turned all right in the end"

"Mateo your early"

"Yeah just heard what happend, surprised Susie didn't chase after those bastard Tygers"

"Don't worry about that, we'll get them back triple for what they did"

"How soon"

"Susie hasn't said yet, but when it happens I'm jumping at the oppurtunity to be put on that team"

"Damn, I wish I could do something"

"It's okay Mateo, some people are good at fighting, others are better at making drinks, you've never been a fighter Mateo so leave that business to the pro's"

Rich began packing his stuff as he was ready to head out because this conversation was none of his business.

The way that Rita wasn't Maelstrom was the same way that Rich wasn't Mox.

He came to help a friend not to over hear their plans to put some dirt in tygers Kiroshi's.

Nearly all the stuff he brought was used so now all he had left was minimal along with the box.

"Taking off already" spoke Mateo

"Yeah I feel each minute I over stay is another bullet Susie will put in me"

"She ain't that bad" spoke Mateo going in defense of his boss.

"Oh, Suze can be pretty bad" spoke Rita as she waved Rich off.

And so Rich did as he took off without being blocked or noticed despite the fact that he still stuck out like a sore thumb.

But a Rippers work is never done as he knew he had clients waiting for him when he got back to the All Foods Plant.

To Be Continued.
