The Arkan.

The hunters who wanted us dead.

They use a special device that leads them to those who are chipped. A quick scan of an area makes us appear on their screens as red blips, and the chips are

I found a few of the Arkan since I’ve been trying to locate them anyway, and I killed them all without mercy. Unleashing the anger that had been burning within me. Delivering judgment to those who dared to hurt our kind.

But I had to come back because I had taken nothing with me, and I had been hit with a poisonous bullet which isn’t healing.
