Kamalla and her husband Farok have been through a lot together.  20 years of marriage, in fact.  But something rocks the boat when Farok gets into a big accident in space.  Everyone dies on the space ship he was on except for him.  But he barely survived.  Only his brain was left intact.  

Lucky for him, he was able to be kept alive, but there was a glitch with his recovery.  A big glitch.  His body is a robot, leaving only his brain as a human component.  Being the first cyborg ever causes a buzz in the media, and he's really starting to feel the pressure.  

But he's more worried about his relationship with his wife than anything else.  One day, he decides to leave their home to get away from the media, and from his wife, who surely must want him to leave.  After all, he's 300 pounds of metal, and only three pounds human.

Against the Tide - A New Elysium Story [Complete] by taivaan_sininen
65 parts Complete
Augments - digital implants and robotic prostheses - can enhance abilities, bestow entirely new ones, or replace parts of the body that have been broken or injured. At least they used to, before they were declared illegal during the Purge. But augments were never meant to replace parts of the human brain. So when her brain got damaged beyond organic repair, she was fixed using other parts of machines. And they ended up saving more of her than just her physical body, as one day, she found herself no longer alone inside the expanse of her own mind. Amy Larsson is many things. A covert augment. An escaped slave. An infamous space pirate. A spy for New Elysium. A terrorist. An overall badass bitch to be reckoned with - rumor has it she can hot-wire anything with just a rubber band and a bobby pin. But what not even the android crew of her ship, the Blackstar, is aware of, is the fact that Amy Larsson is even more than that: she is two people, in one body. And they are planning to commit the most audacious heist of the galaxy. _______________ Featured on Wattpad Beyond Sol's "Sunflower Space Opera" reading list First Place in the The Chaos Awards 4 (Science Fiction) [2018-07-21] Third Place in The Rebel Awards 2018 (Science Fiction) [2018-09-16] Highest Rankings: #2 in SpaceTravel [28.02.2019] #8 in SpaceOpera [28.02.2019] #9 in Cyborg [28.02.2019] #14 in Mind [28.02.2019] #15 in Space [28.02.2019] #42 in FemaleProtagonist [28.02.2019] #54 in Science Fiction [07.05.2018] Spin-off story / prequel to @Red_Leasia 's "New Elysium": https://www.wattpad.com/story/106699395-new-elysium We're co-writing the sequel "New Elysium 2 - Weapons of War" on our shared profile @New_Elysium
