S oon the program had fully linked with every life form it need to link with; which was unimaginably large number that was only dwarfed by the share size of the galaxy. The time ticked by unbearably slow, seconds seemed like hours to the members of The Brothers Will, as they floated in space pushing out every bit of power they could to hold the net in place.
Here on Techatron 24 there was a storm around the entire planet, having the two oldest and most power full members of the alliance at full power, was not just affecting the atmosphere around them but the entire planet as a whole. The planets metal surface shock as energy surged over it, the atmosphere became an uproar of lightning storms, and the planet was even beginning to affect the orbit of all the other planets in the system.
The first hour passed and the voting began. Computer systems, ships, and most other systems began to come back online slowly as they adjusted to the interface the alliance was generating. This didn’t matter though, the galaxy was still at a standstill, the new chose they had been given was bring to light a completely new type of life, that had before never come to mind in the wildest of their imagination.
The timer was now ticking, The Brothers Will had already began to wear down, their bodies were beginning to age faster with each passing second. Using their Nannies at max output, it had a side effect that was very dangerous. At max output, the Nannies no longer stopped the aging process of The Brothers Will, which in itself wasn’t a big deal they were an undying beings age meant very little to them. But with age comes weakness of the body. Their bodies were ageing faster and faster, at this rate their bodies would soon reach their true age. Not a big deal for the younger members but this would be a problem for the Powerhouse members each being over five million years old their bodies would age to almost nothing.
This problem was only made worst by the two leaders; with them both being eons old they would loses control of their powers if they reverted to their full age. And even though the most powerful member of the alliance would revert to their ages much slower not even Ten Thousand would be able to last the remain 25 hours.
As Ten Thousand realized what was happing he looked over at 24 who smiled as is face slowly aged. He had known this would happened and he knew they risked losing who they were. As the aging process began to take its toll on every member of the alliance, 24 smiled and with a weak voice, he spoke. “Run container program now. I’m sorry brother…” his voice gave out.
The ground around them moved up forming a dome around them. It was dark black as though it was absorbing the light itself, it was smooth and almost like a sheet of glass but it reflected nothing, it seem to just pull everything in and let nothing out; it lifted from the planet and began to move forward quickly. It shot out of the planets atmosphere and passed the twin stars, then out of the star system. Soon it was in between the star system and the galaxy; it stopped and opened letting 24 and Ten Thousand drift out. Once it had finished letting them out it seem to just vanish from existence.
