The giant's hand tightened around the handle of the sheathed knife at his waist, while his gloved hand clamped down over the soldier's face, keeping him from collapsing onto the grated floor. Securing his head in his grip, he forced the man's jaw against his skull, silencing any cries that may escape. Unknown soldiers surge into the mines at Jingai, sending shockwaves of alarm through the crew of the Centaurus, the companies liner hovering above. Who are these intruders, and what could drive them to attack an asteroid? The questions linger in the air, thick with uncertainty, as tension grips the mining community and everyone on board. In the vastness of space, aside from piracy, conflict was unheard of. Now, Sergeant Kane and his elite emergency response team find themselves thrust into a desperate struggle to safeguard Proxima's interests and save the people stationed within the mine's BioStat. Every second counts. Kane and his veterans understand the gravity of the situation, the odds stacked against them, but they are ready. When the XO barks the command to jump, they leap without hesitation, honour and loyalty surging through their veins, acutely aware that the fate of their mission and perhaps their very lives, hangs precariously in the balance.
