"Alright, I am sure that you are going to keep your comments about my wife to yourself from now on, right?" I asked, and Jack nodded.
"Yes, I will give General Sofia the proper respect from now on!" Jack said, snapping to attention, and Sofia giggled.
"General Sofia? You know, I kind of think I like this, Papi. Maybe later, you can call me that?" Sofia asked as she petted my chest.
"Only if you translate my name for me," I grinned and then turned back to the now empty pool.
I extended my hand towards it and pulled at some of the systeminium that I stored. Slowly, the metal streamed up from the pool into a sphere that floated before my hand.
"So, this is the stuff that you inject into us, and we get the special abilities?" Binder asked as he straightened the shirt he had just put back on, and I nodded.
