Jay and Sunshine looked upon the shocked soldier who had made their first kill on the battlefield.

"The first one is always the loudest in your mind. They get quieter, but never let them go completely silent. Once that happens, you become like us." -- Anon Guest

They called it a Double Blade Attack. One, the rapier, an obvious attack against the advancing Dereggers. The other, the dagger, was the precision strike against the leaders. Who had to get through the defences of the Deregger army. Past gun batteries, fortifications, traps, and well-armed space marines who shot first and asked questions later.

They played with toy drones, buzzing them through the air. But beware kids with little RC toys, and you're trying to be intimidating. -- Anon Guest

Fun for the whole family! Cosmetic shells sold separately, battery packs and chargers not included. The drones were cheap, easy to use, and could carry weights up to five kilograms as long as they were also aerodynamic.

153: Pod 153 to Pod 042. How is it going?

042: I am embarrassed.

153: Why is that?

The human was only two-thirds my size and look squishy as a havenworlder, hard to believe that they’re from a deathworld. I was given the chance to spar with the human, I couldn’t even touch them. -- Anon Guest
