Chapter Seven

Once Alex and Jim passed into the meteor, everything changed. The temperature rose drastically. Neither of them could hear anything from outside the meteor, despite being only a few feet from the opening.

If Alex’d had more time, she would have stepped in and out of the meteor to see if this was all in her mind, but that didn’t matter right now. Hopefully, the meteor wouldn’t exist for very long anyway.

As Alex and Jim flew through the interior tunnel, Alex weighed their likelihood of success. The plan had been Roy’s and Toppinir’s. She had no idea what their odds of success had been. They must have been fairly high, though. Both men had been willing to bet their lives on it.

But what if something went wrong? The meteor had grown since Roy and Toppinir had initially planned to blow it up. Or was it an illusion?

Alex didn’t know what was real anymore. What she had seen outside as she and Jim were closing in on the meteor had left a lot of questions. Chine had said it was some kind of psychic projection. That meant it wasn’t real, right?

None of those questions were bringing Alex or Jim any closer to what they were looking for—the core of the meteor. There was something powering the object, and they needed to find where it was and destroy it.

Alex pulled up her HUD visor and peered through it. She was looking for a source of energy, anything giving off a power or heat signal. There was nothing. As far as she could tell, the meteor was all one temperature.

The only thing Alex had to go on was the brief glimpse she’d had of the interior when she was looking through Manny’s eyes. For the first time in a while, Alex wished Manny had come along for the ride. He would have hated this, though.

A pang of regret stabbed Alex in the chest. She pushed it down. Thinking about how much she was going to miss that floating mass of eyeballs wasn’t going to help anyone. Still, it hurt to think about it.

Alex and Jim flew out of the tunnel into a vast, empty space. It was difficult to imagine this place was in the meteor, considering how large it was.

The walls were lined with holes. It would be easy enough for Chine and Jim’s mech to fit through them. The problem was that Alex had no idea where they went. Each tunnel was a shot in the dark.

Jim poked his head out of his cockpit before climbing out of his mech and sitting on top of it. “You know what’s really weird?” he asked. “I haven’t seen one monster since we got here. Do you think the meteor sent all its forces out when we attacked it?”

Alex shook her head. That seemed too good to be true, but the other option was terrifying. If all those angels hadn’t been the majority of the meteor’s forces, how many could be hiding and waiting for them?

Jim shrugged before getting back into his mech.
