A while back.
Sion walked forward.
His boots glided over the jagged terrain with a calm that didn't fit the aftermath. His presence didn't ripple. It blanketed. And at the far end of the Titan Bud—
She lay.
Maki.
Unconscious.
Her obsidian-black jumpsuit still clung to her like skin, dust and blood smudging its sleek fabric, but not enough to take away from the sheer shape of her.
A battle-worn beauty.
And beside her—
That monstrosity of a weapon.
The brutal chainsaw-blade hybrid, resting with its edge buried halfway into the Titan Bud like it wasn't even trying to look subtle.
Sion crouched beside her.
He took his time.
