After the battle with Linkara, he had been rebuilt. Linksano had done an excellent job for a human, and the backup of his CPU remained uncorrupted. All that remained was his hand.

His sensors had determined that the hand was still functional, but it was currently located within Linkara’s room. It was foolhardy to risk their plan on something that could so easily be replaced. Better to have Linksano build a new one.

But it was a part of him. And some circuit deep inside of him seethed at the prospect of Linkara controlling any part of him. Owning him.

Hope this is not too bad. :)
