'...one of the Veritech was hit four or five times and collapsed in on tself as its generator exploded," At least a sentence-worth of emotional (or semi-emotional) reaction from T.B. would be appropriate here... 'Being told by Dr. Lang to gather a team of scientist,' You want the plural. 'The questioning, voices asking him questions...' Repetitive. Replace either 'questioning' or 'questions' with an appropriate synonym. On the same note, try to find other words to use in place of 'Veritech'. '...the remaining protagonist.' >From the OED: protagonist: n. 1. the chief person in a drama. 2. one of the chief contenders in a contest. 3. (incorrect use, as if the opposite of 'antagonist') an advocate or champion of a cause, etc. antagonist: n. an opponent, one who is hostile to something. I think you want the latter, ne? ^_^ Well... Gotta rush off to Calc... More C&C later... Love it, so far! -Christopher Willmore
