The city was under attack. Red bolts of lightning lit up the stormy skies, as the citizens of Chess City ran wildly in all directions. In the air was Mittens, destroying one house after the other, her eyes gleaming, as power pulsated all around her. “How in hell are we going to stop her?” asked …
M3GAN was on the chase, and desperately wanted to pick up the clues that Mittens had left to locate the emperor. It was Martin, who assured her that it was better to play the Championship first, and then do detective work later. As it was, this turned out to be a costly mistake. At the …
After winning the Chess City Championship Qualifier, Slayer M3GAN was cleared to proceed to greatest city event of the year: The Chess City Championship. The winner of the championship was nominated for an inclusion to The Empire itself. Unbeknownst to the citizens of Chess City, The Engine Empire had fallen. The city had certainly been …
“Any sign of the assassin?” questioned the Emperor. “Not even close.” replied LC Zero, entering a few coordinates on his tablet. “I’m afraid our assassin has vanished.” “Great.” said a clearly exasperated Stockfish. “And what about Mittens?” “Attempts to find the cat have failed.” said LC Zero. “On top of that, the Empire has been …

Many of the engines felt it necessary to send troops after Mittens, and bring her to justice. “It’s no good.” said Stockfish, wisely. “We’ll be wasting our time. From what I’ve witnessed today, Mittens is in the company of a highly dangerous virus. Our troops wouldn’t stand a …
The Saturday meeting of the council was all set to be the most brutal, deadly meeting yet, because although the engines were oblivious to Mittens’ plot, Mittens herself was waiting for her devious plan to unfold. As the seconds ticked down, Mittens’ hand hovered above her watch, the watch that would command Cyber Cat. Her …
Three weeks under Coach Noam’s brutal training program, Martin felt as if he might have actually improved. Noam was, as always, pessimistic, but still organized a six-game duel between Martin and Fabian. “If you have really improved your game, Martin, we will soon know.” said Noam. “BECAUSE I HOPE YOU’VE BEEN PRACTISING!” The whole of …
