Act 4 begins as Markesha strikes first! Leadership within the HSF have grown accustomed to civilians and prisoners reacting in certain, predictable ways. They are to be stomped under a boot until compliance is reached or disposed of. Higher leadership like Ifrit rarely see action of any kind beyond interrogations and executions. Ifrit himself loves… Continue reading Ep. 3 Act 4 Page 1: Charged Threat

Markesha’s made her move, but Ifrit’s got more firepower. The Wall Run is a move that took Markesha the longest to figure out. She knew she could do it, but the problem was HOW. Practicing on the side of street level walls, it took Markesha a good week to make progress. She finally got it… Continue reading Ep. 3 Act 4 Page 2: Dust and Cover

Markesha’s deep in the encroaching cloud of dust, but was it such a good idea after all?

Markesha’s staring down an empty barrel, but that doesn’t mean the dangers past. Ammunition among the HSF Lattice guards used to be free for the taking. A guard could take as many weapons and ammo as they wanted, resulting in prisoners being guarded by HSF guards armed to the teeth. It was almost a game… Continue reading Ep. 3 Act 4 Page 4: The Gun, The Gun, The Gun

We’re returning to the story, but still stand in solidarity with those fighting every day for justice. All. Black. Lives. Matter. Markesha uses quick thinking to knock her attacker back, but keeping one step ahead is proving a little difficult. The bubble of anti-gravity the Pack generates has been a point of frustration for Audrey… Continue reading Ep. 3 Act 4 Page 5: Bodied

Markesha’s improvising on the fly as her pack power level dips low. The standard HSF uniform helmet was originally designed during the WayCross War, and held to a very high standard of battle ready technology. Since the wars end, the old helmets were discontinued due to the high cost of manufacturing and put into storage… Continue reading Ep. 3 Act 4 Page 6: Make It Work

Markesha takes an L in the form of a left hook, but will the pack recharge in time?

Markesha’s quick thinking works, but there’s still the problem of freeing her boss and all the other prisoners the team weren’t planning on! The charges released from Markesha’s gloves are little more than seriously souped up tasers. Though they have the ability to send shocks of energy outward, no amount of wishful thinking will change… Continue reading Ep. 3 Act 4 Page 8: NOPE.

Ifrit doesn’t take kindly to those who run from his fight. To run away from a battle has grave consequences for HSF deserters who are caught. In the mind of the current HSF leadership, your troops are only as strong as their weakest link, and weakness is not tolerated.

(Content Notice: Blood, Murder) Ifrit gives no mercy, even to his own. The baton is Ifrit’s favored weapon. While other officers in the HSF leaned toward firearms, Ifrit found he enjoyed the more personal approach. HSF batons were usually used for last ditch effort crowd control measures. Each is made of collapsible metal, and depending… Continue reading Ep. 3 Act 4 Page 10: Hard Point
