The WildCATS are introduced as they attempt to recruit the last member of their team: Reno Bryce, the computer expert and unwitting descendant of the Kherubim. But the Daemonites are after Reno as well. The WildCATS rescue Reno from the Daemonites and unleash his powers as Warblade. But Warblade is not yet ready to become a WIldCAT – a fact which Helspont uses to his advantage, capturing the WildCATS and attempting to destroy Void. Only Warblade, finally realizing the importance of fighting the Daemonite menace, can possibly save his new found team mates.

Helspont sends the Troika to retrieve valuable computerinformation revealing the location of a top-secret fusion plant. The Troika successfully steal the information, but the ensuing battle with the WildCATS brings Spartan face-to-face with computer expert Karyn, an old flame from when he was flesh-and-blood. Karyn awakens old feelings in the cybernetic Spartan, and she convinces him to attempt the surgical rebuilding of his badly-damaged flesh-body so that they can be together again. This, however, will leave the WildCATS without a leader. Helspont seizes the opportunity to stage a raid on the secret fusion plant in order to recharge the Behemoth. Spartan must make the choice between being with the woman he loves – or saving the Universe by remaining a machine forever.

Working behind the scenes, Helspont has increased hostilities between Yurgovia and its neighbors, causing the Yurgovians to develop an earthquake weapon. It is Helspont’s plan to steal the weapon for himself, to aid him in unearthing the Orb once it is found. The WildCATS have moved to stop him, but Helspont has an ace up his flaming sleeve. The Coda – a secret organization of warrior women originally created by Zealot – have turned mercenary and are now working for the Daemonites. Zealot must defeat the leader – her ex-pupil – in single combat in order to turn the Coda forces again the Daemonites.

Helspont needs a special government spy satellite in order to resume his quest for the Orb. In order to take control of the space program, he has the President of the United States possessed by a Daemonite. Voodoo has the power to stop his plans, but Helspont has taken care of her as well. By manufacturing false evidence that her parents are still alive and have come back for her, he manages to keep Voodoo too distracted to interfere. Only Maul, working secretly, manages to disclose the plot in time.

A Daemonite break-in at Halo Optical leads Marlowe to believe they need more security. And the Grifter knows just the man for the job. An ex-accomplice named Lonely, trained by the Grifter himself and just being released from prison. According to the Grifter, Lonely is eager to go straight and his burglary skills will give him excellent insight as head of Halo Security. But the Grifter doesn’t know that Helspont anticipated this situation and has long since bought off Lonely to work for the Daemonites. Lonely betrays the Grifter and the WildCATS and steals the X-Ray lens that Helspont was after. And despite everything the Grifter can do, Lonely learns the ultimate price of working for the Daemonites – becoming possessed.

A Kherubim stasis pod crash-lands on Earth after orbiting for thousands of years. It opens to reveal Majestyk, the Kherubim leader who was commanding when the Kherubim and Daemonite ship crash-landed on Earth. Majestyk immediately assumes command of the WildCATS. And since Spartan’s refusal – thousands of years ago – to follow Majestyk’s orders may have resulted in their crash, Spartan reluctantly goes along with the new chain of command. Majestyk reveals that Helspont is after the legendary Orb, which will make him ruler of the Universe. However, it becomes increasingly clear that Majestyk is after the Orb as well – with a single-minded determination that borders on insanity. When Majestyk’s attempts to destroy the Daemonites threaten to destroy the Earth as well, Spartan is reluctantly forced to remove Majestyk from command. Majestyk, attempting to resist, is sent into another dimension by his own dangerous device just before it is destroyed.
