Cyborg
“She’d come up empty handed. Either the cyborgs simply weren’t taking any chances of a weapon falling into the hands of the hunters, their leader didn’t altogether trust his men, or the ship had been a prisoner hauler when they’d taken it and had already been stripped of anything even resembling a weapon.
With no weapon, she wasn’t going to be able to put up much resistance when/if they came for her. In truth, just how much difference would it make?
She wanted to live, but what were the chances ...of it?
Would it be best to fight to the death and take as many with her as she could, comforting herself with the thought that her life had cost them? Or would that only insure her death when they might have no intention of taking her life otherwise?
She still hadn’t decided what she would do when she heard the sound she’d been dreading; footsteps in the corridor that halted outside Dante’s cabin door; the musical notes that signaled the code being keyed into the lock.
She never consciously decided what she would do.MoreLess
