CHAPTER4: level
Zetes fell on the bed breathing heavily as Pandora just laughed.
“ so the great Zetes has a limit?” she observed as she played with her obsidian hair. The floor was covered with the dismantled bodies of many robots. a crying girl was looking at Zetes body thankful that he got to the final machine on time.
“Pandora?” Pandora looked at the brunet, her green eyes stained by tears. “ is Zetes alright?”
“ yes he is. But you have no idea how tired he is. He had to fight trough hostiles level S on the way here. Plus who sent this machines here and whats with all the” she stopped short of saying what the machines held in there hands. “devices they have?”
“ he is coming.” Pandora seemed alarmed when the girl said that. “ he sent the machines to prepare me.”
“ how do you know?”
“ I don't know. All I knew was that I had to hide. I knew I could not fight them off. And I was right they sent high level of electricity to anyone who punched them.”
“they what!” Pandora went straight to Zetes feeling for a pulse and then she began to cry. “ Zetes”
“ Pandora?”
“Freya, we need to get somewhere safe. Mother and father are gone”
“ what?” Freya could believe what she was hearing.

He loved the picture that he got from the device planted on Zetes. “ so Freya is safe for now. H'm let me see ten more seconds.” as he said this he saw his laptop shut down. “ what the hell?” then the words 'no service' were blinking.

Pandora and Freya could not believe what they saw. the robots that Zetes had destroyed where back online this time with weapons on there hands they got closer to them they stood up getting ready to fight.
“ damn it. Do you know if daughter 3 is near by?”
“ I haven't heard from her.” they each fought carefully knowing full well that eventually they would be overcome by the robots. Just then they heard the humming of a machine coming close. They heard the sound of metal hitting metal and all the robots suddenly stopped moving. “ what just happened?”
“electro magnetic pulse wave can do this to most robots daughter 2, and daughter 4.”
a woman of about 5'12” wearing a black leather biker chick outfit was at the door. On her face where a pair of thin framed glasses that shrouded her azure eyes. She had a kind smile on her face and what appeared to be a laptop on her hands. She had black hair with blond highlights.
“daughter 3 how did you find us?”
“ simple daughter 4, mother and father sent me.”
“mother?”
“ yes HQ was compromised but father got mother out before anything bad happened. he sent me to find you and to help. Plus Zetes was being tracked.” she went to Zetes turning on the computer which gave of the humming sound for a second. “ we need to get him to safety.”
“ daughter 3 what is the protocol for this?”
“ there is none. for now we are to become civilians.”
“ good then as long as that EMP thingy worked. My name is Pandora this is Freya and you know Zetes. We can go to my family's house. They have a lot of room but we better leave now if we hope to be safe.”
“ h'm alright. Thank you Pandora” she picked up Zetes. “ my bike is outside, and you two can call me amber”
Zetes woke up feeling his body ache, those machines had one hell of a punch. He looked up at the blue ceiling thinking of the people that might have died in the invasion of the Head Quarters. It took him a few seconds to realize that he was naked under the silk sheets and that he was in an unfamiliar room. He heard the door opened. He turned around and looked at the girl.
“ hello Zetes, my name is flora I am Pandora's little sister.”
Zetes decided against speaking to her he just put his head on the pillow.
“ sis... really did a number on you.” he blinked. “ don't you speak?”
“ not really.” Zetes look at the door to see Freya. “ to be serious he doesn't speak a lot even to us. Could you go to your sister?” flora smiled and left.
“Freya?”
“ everything is okay, it turns out father saved mother. The raid on the HQ was a bust they got no one. And daughter 3 has finally shown up. Everything will be okay.”
Zetes let out a sigh. Freya hugged him as tight as she could without hurting him.
“ thank you for protecting me.”
“ Freya no problem.”
“ well Pandora has been crying her eyes out I will go tell her you are up.”
Freya left Zetes alone for a while.
“ you know you cant hide forever?” Zetes sighed he recognized that voice. “ yes brother you have a concussion so of course you would see me again.”
“why?”
“ simple. You have to start telling them all that is going on. you cant protect them all. They have to get ready.” Zetes closed his eyes.
“ you know what those machines mean Zetes. so wake up!”
his eyes opened in haste as Amber entered.
“ Zetes”
“Amber, those machines they are not good”
“ I know.”
“ no. I mean that one of my brothers built them long ago. If they are still operational it means he is alive. We will have to start training them faster. I” he hesitated. “ I wont be able to protect all of you”
“you don't have to protect me I can protect myself.”
“no you can't.” his voice seem to be made of the toughest metal. Amber knew she could not speak till he was done and that she had to memorize it. “ what we will be facing now is something that even I will have a hard time fighting. Most companies we get to agree to our terms but soon we will have to get into military bases and when we do we will find hostiles the likes of which would be hard for even a 10th Dan to fight. I must train you girls.”
Zetes closed his eyes, Amber could not believe what she was hearing. As she saw Zetes sleep she sighed. She did not understand what it was he was talking about. what could be more powerful then a level S hostile?
