Xion Sable’s soul burned with a vehement dislike for five
things he found to be the epitome of rat-bag-fokkery: the
pretence of arrogance, the act of thievery, the profanity
of excessive boasting, the vice of falsehood, and the cruelty of
harming the innocent.
This drive for justice often led him to the streets of Eden II
on stag duty.
His fellow Edenites tagged him, nodding in respect, and
the crowds parted as he strode by. Along with his imposing
presence, the Rider’s Sable Group credentials made him a
kickass, badass, scary mofo feared by thugs, civvies, and
Kings alike.
However, as the security honcho on one of Pegasi’s
bustling city planets, Xion was not just a figurehead.
He was a firm believer in leading by example and walking
the talk to stay connected to the real needs on the rock.
The beat got him in the thick of it, and he lived for the
adrenaline rush of boots on the ground where he kept a
watchful eye and made a direct difference to those in need of
it.
He’d had a freakin’ mad day, though. It had started with
chasing a band of lootin’ bootleggers across the city, followed
by hunting down a new synth-koko supplier in the
underground tunnels. Just an hour earlier, he’d engaged in an
all-out kapo rumble with a pair of drunk pair of drunk thugs.
Compared to all that madness, his patrol felt like a walk in the
park.
His tall, strapping figure strode through a boulevard
teeming with travellers and locals drawn to Eden II’s sights
and closeness to the stars and nebulas.
Many years ago, when he’d been an Eden Guard recruit,
he’d patrolled these same backroads and boulevards.
Back then, they’d been overrun by unruly Pikani gangsters,
bootleggers, buccaneers, and ghost wraiths of Old Eden.
He’d also worked Eden II’s subterranean tunnels. Back
then, they’d been riddled with gambling dens, gaming
arcades, whore houses and seedy hotels that catered to every
vice and, therefore, most criminals on the rock.
After a string of successful busts, he’d been promoted to
Sergeant.
He ascended through the ranks, taking on more
challenging roles in the underground hoods until the Elder
Council appointed him the Commanding Officer of the Eden
Guard.
Now, he oversaw the entire organisation, from emergency
services, spaceports, and air traffic patrol to counterterrorism, criminal intelligence, organised crime, narcotics,
public transportation, and communal housing units.
The sound of harmony from a pulsing disco-lit drone
caught his attention. He narrowed his eyes to a group of
juveniles hanging in one corner and made a quick
assessment.
They weren’t causing trouble, just sitting around on plex
boxes, playing music, tossing down cans of sweet pop and
shooting the shit.
When they spotted him, they waved and yelled out.
Recognising them from his free weekly kapo class, he
sauntered over.
