Moonbound

Wounded and running on fumes, the desperate prisoners race to the space elevator, one step closer to freedom. But trouble looms ahead. Ying‑Tai hatches a wild plan to hijack Chin‑Yau’s starship, but not everyone is ready to leap into her firestorm of a strategy, and tensions flare as the elevator nears the ring station. Freedom is close—but still seems out of reach.

Buried beneath the rubble from the last explosion and pinned down by gunfire, hope of escape fades. At any moment, Dex and Gekko expect the mine’s troops to enter the remains of the building. Where is Ying-Tai? Is she still alive? Is it too late to stop the mites? 

As the mine’s forces close in, Ying‑Tai risks everything on a final, reckless gamble. Meanwhile, the wounded Dex, Gekko, Tima, Morstyn, and Boog fight on against overwhelming odds as the troopers roll in heavy artillery.

Victorious yet wary, the prisoners climb the escape shaft toward long‑awaited freedom, unaware that the League’s minekeepers intend to exact a final, brutal price before letting their slaves slip away.

The moon mites are stirring as Ying-Tai begins to despair and lose hope. Meanwhile, topside, the mine’s commander, Captain Amos Trankwell, is concerned that the daily quotas have remained unfilled for the past five days. Amos decides to take his troops into the dark to investigate.

Ying-Tai's plan begins to take shape as she climbs high into the shaft of darkness, but the descent could overwhelm even her reserves of strength. As the prisoners put their plan of escape into action, they discover there may be horrifying consequences.

A new inmate to "The Hole" shatters the daily monotony of too short nights and long dark days, breaking rocks deep below the crust of the Moon for the League. The new prisoner brings rare news of events topside, and Ying-Tai dares to hope.

Carl stumbles upon one of Chin-Yau's most fiercely-guarded secrets—a scheme so mind-boggling no one would ever believe it. Unfortunately, Carl isn't the only one who has been discovering desperately-guarded secrets.

Carl's late-afternoon bath is interrupted by a pleasant yet dangerous surprise, while Julong continues to plot his revenge.

At the bottom of the deepest, darkest pit, Ying‑Tai encounters a ragtag band of condemned prisoners. Each carries a past steeped in secrets, yet even among these so‑called bad apples, a few stand out as truly rotten.

Ju‑Long, the egomaniac project manager for Chin‑Yau’s starship program, is on the warpath—his target: Carl Bogeran, the teenage tech prodigy responsible for the ship’s advanced computer systems. When Ju‑Long uncovers a troubling error code in the system, he confronts Carl head‑on, sparking a clash between ego and raw genius. Meanwhile, Ying‑Tai discovers just how disposable she is to her former em...

Targeted by Chin‑Yau’s simmering disappointment, Ying‑Tai suddenly finds herself caught in the crosshairs of a quiet but calculated plot to remove her. Yet whatever nightmares she has imagined, none come close to the hellish horror awaiting her at one of the League’s most fiercely guarded secret locations. 

The operation balances on the edge of a knife as Ying-Tai enters the lair of the League's supreme leader, Arliss Ross. However, danger lurks at every turn, and a nasty surprise is yet to come.

Ying‑Tai leads a covert strike team up a 3,200‑foot megastructure in a night‑blackened city, navigating lethal security systems to carry out the first phase of Chin-Yau's plan to eliminate any internal disloyalty and set the stage to become the most powerful ruler on Earth.
