"Damn over-priced piece of junk...how do ya..hold up, is this the button? Damn, piece of scrap metal." Mr. Vega continued to mutter to himself, fumbling to program the Task Force number into his phone. His muttering increased in speed and severity until finally culminating in a string of barely...

As the rest of the team introduced themselves, Mr. Vega did his best to keep up. There was the meekly Rust, who was just a boy compared to the rest of the group. Then there was the woman, Yumi, who appeared to be just as sharp as she was beautiful. And finally the man who went by Pallas. He...

The lingering smell of chocolate gave the grizzled police veteran a pounding headache. Must be the caffeine, he thought bitterly. In all his years as a police officers, he had never been able to tolerate anything with even the slightest bit of caffeine in it. Coffee in particular was a source of...

As the race grew ever closer, Jamukha felt himself becoming more and more uneasy. No matter how many practice laps he took, or however many questions he asked Kranst, he couldn?t help but feel increasingly unsettled. He had raced countless times before, and won a fair amount. However, it was...

A champion huh? Somehow Jamukha did not find that hard to believe. Unintimidated, he urged Clay to go faster as they approached the turn, hoping to cut ahead of Kranst and Shade. The champion was one step ahead however, and outmaneuvered Jamukha coming around the corner. Jamuu was unwilling to...

"They don't give them names, you can call him whatever you like."Jamukha looked from his nameless horse to the rider who had just approached him. Had it not been for his fair appearance, Jamukha would have taken him for another Amon'tyr. He rode with a natural confidence common among Jamuu's...

I hope I did that right. This looks like it could be a ton of fun.

Leaning against the hippodrome wall, Jamukha went over the events of the previous night again and again in his head. The drink took the better of me, he decided. Jamukha had allowed his anger to control him, and as a result he was taken in by Rowan?s words. I looked like a fool, standing...

Listening to Lahar talk about his people, Jamukha couldn?t help but feel a certain kinship with the man. From the tone of the Vaan?s voice, it was clear just how much his weapons had meant to him. Jamuu knew from personal experience just how disheartening it was to lose such an important part of...

The thought of spending the night in a cell of his own brought with it a strange mixture of feelings. On one hand, Jamukha looked forward to the peace and quiet that solitude would bring. But Jamukha wasn't sure he wanted to sleep peacefully, even for one night. The image of his brother laying...

Jamukha took Rowan?s hand and gave it a firm shake. He was glad to see his friend had not died on the sands. So glad, in fact, that he almost managed a smile. Jamukha found it hard to be happy after such grim work. Good to see you brother. By contrast, Rowan had no trouble smiling at all...

There was a moment of hesitation, and then Jamukha took Antonius's hand. After everything they had been through, he owed the Imperial that much at least. One fight was not enough to erase all that the Empire had done to Jamuu and his people, but it was enough for Jamukha to look at this one...

Thick chains dug into the Darkling Brother?s flesh, slowly crushing the man?s throat. Despite his adversary?s constant struggling, Jamukha kept his grip firm. Red eyes began to bulge from Brother?s head. Spit and blood leaked out of his mouth in equal parts. Just one more good twist and the...

His spear tasted blood, but it was not enough. The black brother was not only quick, but cunning as well. As Jamuu lunged forward with his spear for a finishing strike, he was met with a cloud of sand. Rough grains of sand blurred his vision and choked his lungs. Jamukha's form broke and he...

Unimpressive. Jamukha watched cautiously as the Darkling Brothers put on their little knife show for the crowd. Pomp and flare, it would serve these brothers poorly when met with the end of Jamuu's spear. But the crowd seemed to enjoy it well enough. Jamuu wondered just how many times the...
