Eva froze in mid swing and Charon capitalised by kicking him hard in the gut, doubling him over, the chair fell with a clatter to the canvas. Charon then dropped an elbow to the back of his head and gave him a reply.

"You ceased to be human a long time ago, you are a cyborg with no mind of its own and your mother is a whore!"

Eva reacted in a confused manner, he was angry at the slur to his mother but at the same time curious to know more but Charon was now in no mood to tell nursery stories to an oversized tin can. She grabbed him in at headlock then jumped up and slammed his head hard to the canvas. She then got up and headed for the nearest terminal and activated it. She walked to several more random terminals and activated them. Eva was struggling to co-ordinate himself as Charon hauled him up to his feet, he wobbled there like a drunken idiot until Charon threw him towards one of the activated ropes. Eva never got that far, he fell over flat on his face, Charon sighed and dropped a leg on the back of his neck and shoulders.

Eva tried contacting his mother again but received the same error message and he began to cry in his frustration, beating his fists on the canvas and slamming his feet down at the same time. Charons words echoed round in his head and he wondered of it was true.

Meanwhile, Charon had pulled out a small syringe and vial from her other boot, she stuck it right in Eva's backside and drew some liquid that looked like green goo mixed with watery blood. He now yowled, pain was something he wasn't used to having to deal with and suddenly things had begun to hurt. She squirted the liquid into the vial and shoved it back in her boot. Eva was now rolling around on the canvas screeching at her.

"WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR? NOW I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!"

Charon loked down at the cyborg who was staring back at her like an insolent child and just for a second he reminded her of Augustus when he pulled the same hurt expression.

"Maybe you should try learning to walk first, then come back and fight me eh?!"

Eva glared evilly back at her and she waited.
