Subject: Meanwhile, back at the docking bay........

He stepped away from his team-mates and took a slow, deep breath. A somewhat redundant step for a robot, true, but a habit he had gotten into long ago and wasn't about to give up. Finally the resonance of the Orion merge faded completely, leaving him with a sense of detachment coupled with relief that his thoughts were, once again, his own. He listened to the banter of his team-mates and smiled again, glad he had found a place in this team. He had never been good alone, and to have a place in a team again, to serve something larger than the sum of its parts again, was all he could ever have wanted.

As Star Raider made another joke, Phantom joined in the conversation and started to compare fighter techniques with Hurricance. Team Orion was a well-oiled machine, its members interacting as well together as separate entities as they did as parts of the Gestalt.

It saw again, watched from its cocoon of darkness. The ignominy of it, to be trapped! Caged! It would rise again, it knew. All it had to do was wait.

"So then I said, "What were you doing, Monkey?" and the whole thing went downhill from there!"

I WILL RISE AGAIN

Phantom noted some superficial damage to his armour plating and walked over to the repair bay. His disquiet was settling. His status as a team-member was proven by his performance in the emergency. Things were looking good.

SOON

Somewhere, beyond the cosmos and the fabric of reality, on a plane of being far beyond anything that can clearly be understood, a being called Fate was suddenly tempted into action...........
