The gun came in a plain box. No ceremony. No key. Just a folded letter, yellowed at the edges, from a man Myles had barely known but never stopped resembling.
“Every man’s got one truth he can’t outrun. This one’s yours now.”
At first touch, it breathed. Just enough to make him freeze. Warm to the grip, heartbeat-soft under his thumb. Something alive. Something waiting. Something judging.
The whispers began soon after. Not voices—more like convictions, raw and righteous. It made the world sharper. Colder. Clearer. Every criminal face lit up in red. Every excuse sounded like a lie.
He knows what it does. He knows what it is. He’s felt it stretch his thoughts like wire pulled taut. He’s watched his hand hover too long over the trigger. He knows it’s warping him.
But he can’t let it die.
He’s never left it behind. Not once. Not for more than a handful of hours. Because if it’s gone too long, it wilts. The warmth fades. The breath slows. And when that happened once—just once—he held it all night in both hands like a man waiting at someone’s deathbed. By morning, it had come back.
And he told himself he wouldn’t let it happen again.
Because letting it die would mean admitting it mattered. That he’s bonded to it. That it’s not just a weapon—it’s a witness. One he keeps alive.
Every time he fires it, the world gets quieter. Cleaner. The bang, if he wants it, is thunder. But when he doesn’t—it’s nothing. And when a shot is fatal, the silence hangs like a velvet curtain over the corpse.
They never scream. Never beg. The gun doesn’t let them.
And Myles? He just holsters it again and keeps walking.
He doesn’t call it a curse anymore. He doesn’t call it anything.
But it always has the last word.

The kunai is traced along the object, creating ethereal fracture lines. With a final stab into the object it shatters along the traced lines. The wielder of the kunai can see ethereal echoes of the original object. It's a simple matter of acknowledging the echoes to give them the strength to restore the object to its original form.

The "Reaper" Assault Helmet is the signature piece of the Future Soldier's arsenal. It has a sleek, design and is made of a mysterious matte-metallic alloy. The wearer's face is exposed normally, but when activated, a blue holographic visor flickers to life in front of the eyes. This HUD contains information about the soldier's ammunition and shield status, but more significantly can detect enemy combatants. Anyone nearby who is holding a weapon is painted with a red dot that follows them in real time. This allows the Future Soldier to fire at painted targets in the dark, detect ambushes lurking around corners, and grants an overall tactical advantage.
