_____________________________

I've been stationed at the Prometheus base on the crucible continent for a month now and as an engineer I build the stuff that kills the bane best and repair the shredded amour of the soldier next to me while being kept safe by one of my powerful shield bots.

But as the alarm shuts down and we go out to collect the spoils of war from our fallen enemies no one will ever thank me, they even shun me, ignore me, if I'm lucky. Two of them have already tried to kill me but my enhanced genes make me hard to kill. That's why I sleep alone under the sky on the base walls. Told the commander it was so I could make sure the defenses where up and running if another attack came in. Know what he told me? He told me that that's where I belong anyway, like the animal I am. If I ever meet that penumbra puke that convinced my ….. original me to make me I won't be responsible for my actions.

The funny thing is; I don't fear the bane, I don't hate them either, I only fight them because they fight me. The one thing I do fear is waking up one night with a knife stuck deep into my chest and the hating eyes of the soldiers I fight besides every single day staring down into mine. I can feel their fear, their hatred.

For I am not Human.

I am not Thrax.

I am The Unwanted
