“It was, for those whose emotion dampers had failed,” Light said candidly. “They started having emotions and were unable to do anything about it until the Sniffers found them out and they were terminated.”
“Or in some cases they were fucking unwilling to do anything about it,” Dark pointed out.
He had never understood why the warriors who started to have problems with their dampers didn’t simply go get them fixed. But now he thought he was beginning to get it. Having emotions—especially good ones like the ones he’d felt when Lili was kissing him—was pleasant.
Extremely fucking pleasant, he thought, remembering how hard his cock had gotten. He’d gotten hard for the Pairing Puppet he and Light had tried to share, but it had been a purely physical reaction. Adding the emotional component—the attraction and interest he felt for the little human Elite—had opened a whole new world that he wanted very much to explore.
Lili looked at the two of them with wide eyes.
“It’s amazing that you two survived living that way for so long—what a fascinating life!”
She sounded like she really meant it, which was nice, Dark thought. One thing he and Light had learned about humans was that they were often disingenuous. Instead of being straightforward when they were bored or disinterested, they pretended interest to be “polite.” He disliked this trait—it made more sense to say what you were really thinking in his opinion.
Light felt the same, though he was better at hiding his displeasure and keeping his feelings to himself. When Dark had an emotion, he didn’t care who knew it. But then, the Light Twin always had been the more diplomatic of the two of them.
From the way the little female was leaning towards him and Light and looking up at them as they spoke made Dark feel she really did care what he was saying. She wasn’t “acting” like some other humans—she really was engaged.
“I’ve heard that Dark Kindred have robot parts—that they’re almost cyborgs,” she said. “Do you guys have any, uh, cybernetic parts?”
Light nodded.
“We both do. My legs are enhanced, though you can’t tell with my uniform trousers on.”
“Mine are more visible.” Dark put his enhanced arm on the table for her to examine. The metal sheath that covered his arm and hand glinted in the dim blue light of the club.
He also activated the retractable scope that covered his left eye, which allowed him to see extreme distances as well as microscopic particles. In addition, while using it he could see in infrared or shoot a deadly laser beam that emitted from the scope with pinpoint accuracy.
Light’s enhancements made him an excellent scout, because he was able to run faster and jump higher when he went to pinpoint the location of the enemy. But Dark’s enhancements—along with his Berserker DNA—made him a deadly killing machine.
“Wow…” Lili ran her fingertips lightly along the gleaming, black smart-metal sheath. “This is so intricate! What can it do?”
“Punch through just about any substance,” Light answered for him. “I’ve seen Dark punch through a solid plasti-steel wall with no problem.”
“But it has other functions too,” Dark pointed out. “Especially the fingers.”
The sheath had been modified by Yipper, the Tolleg Surgeon who was overseeing their transfer to the Mother Ship. He had claimed that the modifications would be “extremely pleasing to females.” Dark hadn’t known what he meant at first, but now he thought he had an idea.
As Lili slid her hand up to explore his fingers, he activated one of the new functions. At once, the metal began growing warm.
“Oh—it’s heating up!” Lili exclaimed, her eyes wide. “What else does it do?”
“This.” Dark activated another function and the tips of his first two fingers began to vibrate rapidly, making a soft, purring sound as they did.
“Oh!” Lili’s eyes got wide and she yanked her hand away in surprise.
Dark frowned.
“Do you not like it? The Tolleg Surgeon who added that function claimed that females would find it most pleasurable.”
“Oh, er…” Her cheeks went suddenly pink for some reason and through his scope, Dark could see that her face was getting hotter because of the infrared function.
“Brother, I think you’re embarrassing her,” Light murmured.
“How? By showing her my sheath’s pleasure function?” Dark growled, confused.
“Don’t you remember that Yipper told us human females don’t talk much about sexual pleasure or sex in general?” Light asked, frowning. “At least, not unless you have an intimate relationship with them—then they can tell you what they want from you, but not unless you’re close to them emotionally first.”
Dark made a face.
