They Can't Order Me To Stop Dreaming
"J... just do what you c-can." Madi panted back, too overwhelmed to think up a new plan on the fly. For now, all she could do was shove the robot as far away as she could before breaking her shield. She needed all her focus to use Timaeus' energy, especially if she was going to drain him quickly.
She thanked whatever gods were out there that she could feel the electricity running through his veins, yellow and sharp. The instant she found it, she started pulling it out. It was like unraveling a spool of thread, and she was yanking out as much as she could before stuffing it in tangled knots wherever she needed it. It only took her a second or two to find what felt like a shift in the energy's color. The new energy was more purple and spongey, and thankfully easy to cut off from the yellow. She figured it was Timaeus' natural energy, and she did not want to draw from his life force by accident.
The instant she cut off the energy, she pulled out of Timaeus' grip and returned her sights to the robot. Her fatigue was gone, and her headache had greatly lessened, so she figured that meant it had worked. She tested the remainder of the theory by attempting to snare the robot a second time.
