Men died in shatters. Standing paramounts of data crumbled and bled, splintering apart on the floor, rifles and grenades scattered across the floor. Veterans broke like unlucky mirrors, arms and legs shorn from the eviscerating tip of a blade. Other men danced in tango with sharp knives and their heads toppled to the winds. In the center of a circle of death stood their ringmaster, herald of leadership, kneeling, arms folded across his shorn armor. He stopped mid-breath. His voice went quiet.

And he rose deliberately, shrugging the gouge and standing straight in the low-light. He wore a fashioned black tri-dome helmet, but swollen around the jaw, like an infection. A rebreather hose pussed out from one swell and reached round into a built-in backpack. His torso was bloated in segmented armor--heavy and level-skinned--but his arms, also shielded, placed a hand over the deep gouge. A combat belt stitched around his waist. Its leather was beathen from the breathing air. Armored leggings braced him upright.

Auspex, the ringmaster of his Troopers, one of the Sons of the Illbegotten, looked upon the Cybeast through his black plexi-forced visor, and suddenly shook with laughter.

'I must say that was quite an impressive entrance. But you'll have to do better than that kitty, kitty.' He growled to it. Foxy landed some feet away, well-spaced from him or the beast. 'I was fighting battles long since you were spawned in your PET shells.'

The Cybeast roared an answer, turnabout to face him. The tiger was impressive. Its glinting blades made Auspex shudder, but the feeling associated couldn't be described. Looking upon the tiger brought dread, yet the gash deep inside the Commander felt like burning life.

'Terrific looking beast at the lease. And perhaps in some twisted form of respect, my name is Auspex. Let me introduce my Troopers in my Command," He spread an arm towards the entrance and eighteen soldiers replaced those bleeding on the floor. "My Legion!"

The Coraetus 2nd bristled with rifles. They formed a three lines; one sqaud on their bellies, another kneeing behind them, and the last standing tall. Four soldiers brandished Concubine Rifles. Auspex rushed to their side.

'I haven't the pleasure of killing a Cybeast, hell you might even survive, but I assure you that you won't be coming back anytime soon.' Auspex looked into the eyes of the beast. 'But I'm posistive you know that already. [/i]
