First of all, awesome story. Secondly, everything about this story was absolutely perfect. The only thing that I could think of that needs revision is the ending. It wasn't really that climactic. Other than that, really great story. Is there any chance for a sequel?

wow, so that was a hell of an awesome ride. any chance of more of this? epilogue or sequel maybe, cause i would love to see these two some more.

*pouts* I like Elsa's powers being super powerful. And then you make them less powerful? [Anger Intensifies]

I love that little thought of the former hive members exchanging contact information and hugging for good bye :)
Huh, why does Elsa say to Kai that her powers are getting weaker?
So Elsa's and Anna's parents as well as Ashley got their memorial stones. Great!
Why is Elsa suddenly compatible? Is this related to her increased control? But how and why would that affect a detached piece of flesh?
Nice though to see them all three being together and happy. At least on the station Anna and Kristoff won't face the same prejudice as Elsa faced on Earth...
Thank you very much for writing this story. I really enjoyed it. :) Do you by any chance plan some kind of sequel?

Yours,
Sven

Is it by chance that this whole hive mind, adapting and assimilating thing basically screams "Borg"?
And how Hans ended up reminds me of another Star Trek TNG episode as well... Though it's definitely scary what he had planned for Elsa *shudders* Despite this it would have been interesting to see whether Elsa's ice powers would have been able to deflect the nanites... :/

Brilliant piece of work. Many of the sci-fi novels I've read that include eugenics, cyborgs, and transhumanism tilt towards the unaugmented hero, with the message that an unaltered human is inherently superior. It's rarer to see a story embrace those advances. Thanks for giving us this story.

Well, sending the second car to be a detraction seemed like a good idea, but apparently it didn't work :/ Now they even had their first face of with Hans and his companion and the EMP rifle proofed completely useless...
Luckily they were going to Dr. Mueller anyway. :/
I take it that Dr. Lancaster was now lost to the cause as well?
Will Elsa get some external armor upgrades as well or will she use her ice for that?

Yours,
Sven

Hahaha... oh, Anna. I was quite amused when she was getting fixed and she's just hanging there making jokes. :P And Elsa got some new toys, that's cool. Yay, Els! :D
PascalDragon chapter 11 . 7/4/2015
Oh no, now we have it confirmed that Anna's parents are dead. But why did the message only come now? Were they merely killed "just now" or was the message of Idunn attached to a specific trigger?
Ha, I knew it! :) And in the end Elsa's search in the genetic database wasn't even necessary...
And we now know why there's "and the Hive" in the title. To be honest technology like this is why I - who otherwise is really supportive of new technology - am sceptical regarding things like augmentations and cyborgs. If I'd use such technology I'd probably make sure that communication augments are decoupled from the ones controlling the body, just to avoid such "hive mind" problems... :/
Nevertheless I'm looking forward to what they'll all do to get rid of Hans. And they need to free Kristoff as well!

Yours,
Sven

The idea is very nice, although the plot is suffering from a lack of character development and literary depth, the former being definitely more important, but neither could be ignored. For example, your dialogues are rather rigid, reflecting none of a person's individuality. Furthermore, your chapters are extremely rushed, in that the tone becomes chaotic with the rapidly changing events, although i highly doubted that was what you had intended.
A good way to fix some of this is to just reread your story with a critical eye. Sometime reading it outloud can help you identify awkward phrasing and other annoying errors.

I'm a little bit behind in terms of reading since I've been doing my own writing, and I can't remember where exactly I left off, so I'll just start here.

First of all, I'm a little confused as to why this has so little reviews. I mean, sure, they're not the best indicator of a story's quality, but still! Down to business though. Maybe you already said this somewhere, but this gives me a Gattaca vibe to it. Especially if Elsa and Anna were sisters, because one of them is modified and the other is just at the mercy of nature. Also, everything you talk about in here (like the range finder) is very possible, if not already real. Something about a super small technology gap between where we are now and what's in your fic has the potential to really draw a reader in.

Some parts, for me, are a little too fast. A few examples would be when Elsa gets booted from the space station. I would think there would be more time between the incident and Kai/Gerda's decision. The other example I could think of, would be Elsa finding all the information on Anna's parents so quickly. I would think that with all her mods, Anna could have done some digging as well. Then again, Elsa is a super tech wiz and Anna isn't exactly into all of that I'd imagine.

I think one part I was confused about was Clarice's introduction. Because it says Kristoff is going out on a date, but later we see Clarice meet him as another person, and even later, going out on a date as "herself". Looking back on that, I understand it. I just think it was because you used the same name while she was incognito, so it threw me off.

All and all, it's a new idea and you obviously know enough to execute it properly. Oh, and I like your writing style and it's a good balance between description and action. Don't stop writing!
