Kallen's head whipped backwards, his neck nearly snapping from the force of the impact. Two identical daggers struck the same precise point on his now protected forehead, full of murderous intent.

The pressure suit absorbed the brunt of the assault, but it's 500 points of defense, was still overwhelmed.

Twin weapons were forged and designed for synchronized executions, and the effects of using them together were always special. One dagger pierced through; tearing flesh and breaking skull.

Blood rushed down from the breach, tracing crimson paths along the surface of the pressure suit that clung to him like a second skin.

But Kallen's eyes veiled beneath the pressure suit did not ripple. There was no human fragility dictated by fear nor demanded by pain in his eyes.

His body was covered in metal. And his will; forged of steel.
