I couldn't understand why they weren't stopping the fight.
Thiss had just admitted to wanting to essentially kill Akash, to rip his body of its individuality and add it to their growing hive mind.
Surely that was against every rule in the book?
I'd never even heard of the name before, but if they were anything like the cybernetic hive minds I'd watched in TV shows and seen in video games, then if Akash let himself become infected by whatever method they used to convert others to their kind then it would be nigh impossible to get him back again.
Every instinct inside me was burning, telling me to jump through the window, crash down into the battleground and blow Thiss away with a cavalcade of energy beams.
