Name: Cabe Axel

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Appearance: Standing at 5'5" and always seeming somewhat grimy from grease, Cabe seems the epitome of a person from mixed heritage-- with a tan skin tone, slim nose, light brown eyes, and thick eyebrows that always seem raised in confusion. Always wearing a flame retardant jumpsuit the color of Cadet Grey. Over that he wears a slim layer of webbing from which to hold what few tools he carries with him. Besides that he wears a pair of black of dark grey boots that reach half way his shins, and a simple white T-Shirt beneath his jumpsuit.

Profession: Engineer

Fears: Deep water, after having had a harrowing experience with a faulty walkway over an open top Water Reservoir-- having come narrowly close to sinking to the bottom of said container had it not been for timely intervention by his brother. Not to mention that he is deathly afraid of being poisoned or sick, since he had witnessed some rather... nasty examples of both in the chaos that was hyper-advanced warfare in the Icarus X Insurrection.

Dreams: To see snow. To hear what a river really sounds like to his ears instead of a synthesized and recorded sound. To see new life and new growth in its natural habitat. All of that, with his family beside him.

History: He had been born and raised on one of the smaller and more "Outdated" ships in the fleet. However, that particular family unit had been split apart when he had been 7 years old, when both he and his brother had been transferred to Icarus X, as part of an exchange program to train the boys as Engineers. Needless to say, it wasn't exactly the best choice for the most stable of childhoods. Cabe himself had repaired faulty circuits or wires along the immense Engine Bays, though always under the critical and watchful eyes of his mentors. As for his older brother, Efe? Well, he had worked more on the Robots and Androids that assisted and helped out on the massive ship, in addition to working on the more difficult tasks that could be found in the Bays-- Efe having a natural balance and strength making him a first-class when it came to heavy equipment. The fact that he was a full 6 years older allowing him to be trusted with more as he aged.
While the years between this and the Wax Wings attacks were dull, the both of them had nearly been caught in the crossfire when a particular group of Belligerents had invaded the Engine Bay to control the ship. In the resulting chaos that followed in the next week, the two brothers had been separated, and Cabe had been unable to properly search for his brother in the chaos that had been trying to keep the Icarus X engines and generators in functioning order as the ships structure had been peppered and decimated by the Wings of Wax.

Family: In his family had been his mother and father, his older brother, Efe, and then himself.

Equipment: Polygloves-- Made of one of the countless materials created over the Millennia, it appears to be made of a thick maroon cloth, with a dull silvery metal covering the fingertips. It is capable of withstand incredible heats, and the pads upon its fingers being capable of heating up to 3000 (°C)-- that is, if it weren't in need in repair, and is currently of only short bursts that can reach 550 (°C) if activated, with a two round cooldown.
2 Ration Packets
1 Angle Head Flashlight

Skills: Ship Repair, Rewiring/Wiring of Electronic Components

Weaknesses: Having almost never interacted with them, he is intimidated and spooked by most animals. In addition, he has no idea on how to swim. At all.

Dark skies rained above the heads of the New Born. The silhouettes of clouds, could just be outlined within the darkness, with the help of a near by Glass Tree. It was late night, the time in which the last quarter of the twenty five hour night had begun. It was also the time in which the vegetation shone the brightest. Sun rocks, small yellow flowers that emitted a warm golden glow, shined, letting their warm glow bounce off the leaves of near by Glass Trees. The moonshine flowers hung low off the great Moon Tree, lighting up a large area with a cooling blue light.

The New Born had set up camp near the great Moon Tree, as if offered shelter and a vast amount of fruit. The New Born had low numbers, about twenty five, but they had worked hard for the past few months. Creating small scale farms, huts, and even makeshift weapons. Spears, wooden clubs and bark shields were the best they could make, with what was offered. However, the group of survivors now sat around a blazing fire. Three members of the group had disappeared into the night, but they would surely return within the hour.

A small and skinny girl came around the group, holding a bowl of roasted nuts and cooked fruit. They were all stuck eating fruits and vegetables, as they hadn't found any wild life. Something may of be lurking in the dark, but no one wanted to go and find out what that was. One by one, the girl came around offering food to everyone. Eventually she would of reached Cabe, offering him what remained in the bowl. A few roasted nuts, and a pear like fruit, that had been cooked over the fire.

"Take what's left, I can go another night without food." The girl's name was Jax. She was the weakest, most terrified, and youngest member in the group, only being fourteen as of a few weeks ago. However, despite her lack in bravery and strength, she made up for it, by being one of the only cooks within the group. She was also one of the only girl's in the group, the other was her older cousin Morgan, and a few others. Morgan was one of the three that had left to go an explore earlier on.

Around the group were many figures, ranging from the youngest, that being Jax, to the oldest. The oldest was a man by the name of Alex, who was only eighteen. Because of this Alex was made to be the leader, and he definitely showed it. He sat on the opposite end of the fire to Cabe, with a shield to his left and a flint spear to his right. With short temper and a crown made of vines, he made sure everyone knew that he was in charge. He had brutal tactics and punishment for anyone that disobeyed him. In fact, just last week he had broken a New Born's wrist, just for insulting him. However, despite his brutal treatment to the group, he kept order and everyone safe. 

Jax took a seat next to Cabe. She was dressed in quiet a small amount of clothes. With nothing but an old shirt, slightly to big for her, jeans and a pair of old trainers. She sat down hugging herself as she shivered. She didn't speak much after offering Cabe the last of the food, instead kept quiet, just like everyone else around the fire.

Jax was taken aback when Cabe didn't instantly grab whatever was left, unlike the others around the fire. She was even more surprised when he offered her the food. Upon sitting down, she suddenly ripped into the roasted food. Tearing the pear like fruit apart within seconds. After all, she hadn't been lying when she mentioned she hadn't eaten in a few nights. 

As the fire crackled, everyone sat in silence. The occasional whisper, and crunch of roasted nuts could be heard, but nothing else. It was clear spirits were low, everyone was scared, tired, sad and angry. At night, Cabe would of been able to hear people talk about how this planet was hell. Brutal sunlight only lasted a few hours, before being plunged into cold and empty darkness, for what seemed to be years. Some New Born had left in the night, a few months earlier. No one knew where they had gone, but the stench of death was fresh in everyone's mind.

"Hey! Alex! We got something!" A female's voice shouted out from the darkness behind them. Out of the darkness came a soft blue glow and the outline, of what seemed to be, a very tall and fit female. Behind this figure were another two figures with the same soft blue glow. As the approached the became more clear. The female figure revealed herself to be Morgan, while the other two were people by the name of Davis and Corry. Their bodies were lit by Moonshine flowers, that had been tied onto them. It made for good makeshift torches, and everyone easier to spot.

Davis, dressed in a large winter jacket, walked up next to Morgan, holding some type of energy knife. Corry however, dressed  military type clothes, wandered up with a club hanging off his belt as he pulled something behind him. Morgan lead the two up to the fire, holding a gun in her hand. Morgan was the only one with a gun, and the only one who knew how to use it, making her a valuable member of the New Born. 

Corry finally made it up to the warm glow of the sun rocks and the fire, revealing what he had dragged up. It was some type boar like creature. With horrid purple and red skin, two viscous looking tusks and dead eyes, it lay on the ground unmoving. It appeared to have a bullet wound in it's stomach, and it's skull seemed to of been based in with something blunt.

"When we were out, this fucker came across and tried to attack us. Thankfully we bashed it's head in, killing it." Morgan said triumphantly, kicking the creatures stomach. The carcass jerked slightly, before becoming unstill. "It's dead, so no need to worry." By now,  most of the people around the fire had left, now surrounding the dead beast. Alex looked at the creature, rather unimpressed, before glaring up at Morgan.

"You were suppose to be mapping out new routes, not playing huntsmen." He said with a growl in his voice. Alex spun around before glaring at Jax. "You, brat, get over here! Chop this creature up, and make us a real meal for once." Alex pointed his spear at Jax, and then at the creature. Jax, not wanting to cause and trouble, did as she was told. Getting up from her seat she made her way over to the creature.

Jax shot a glance back to Cabe with a soft, shy, grin. The girl would walk up to the creature, taking the energy knife off Davis, she cut into the creatures stomach. A miserable look of disgust became plastered on her face as she begun to gut the creature. Not to far away from the sight would be Morgan and Alex. Morgan whispering something into Alex's ear, causing the leader of the New Borns to grunt, as if he was annoyed. Cabe would probably be able to understand what Morgan had just said, with that being something along the lines of. "I have a gun, mistreat her, and you're dead." Which was made quiet apparent by their body language.

Later that night Cabe, with a few other's including the cousins, Davis, Corry and Alex, sat around the large fire. Most of the others had gone to bed to get some rest, while two others kept watch on the outskirts of the base. The night was nearly over, shown by the reddish tinge resting on the horizon. The great fire had died down by now, allowing Jax to skewer the beast and roast it over the fire. People had came, one by one, ripping strips off the beast as food. It was now nothing but bone, with a few strips of well done meat on it.

"We're going to need to move soon..." Alex mentioned in a low voice to everyone sitting around the fire. This statement was met with mix reactions. Some people gasped in shocked, while others whispered to each other about it. Most seemed to be in shock rather than denying it as a move, except for Morgan that was. Standing up out of her seat she eyed Alex up.

"Sorry, what? Me and my team may be pathfinders, but I've told you before, there is no route that will allow all of us to move." Morgan said crossing her arms in defiance. "Corry show him." The boy dressed in military uniform disappeared for a moment or two, before rushing out of one of the huts. In his hands he held serval makeshift maps of the land scape. Running up to Morgan, he gave her the most recent one. "See, there is a path up, but theirs a coke point on the cliff. It's far to dangerous to traverse, unless you want to loose anymore New Borns."

In a frustrated temper Alex suddenly sprang out of his seat, a spear in his hand. It appeared that he might of attacked, however, he was suddenly stopped in his tracks as a gun was pulled on him. Morgan stood with the most dominance at this moment. With a gun in her hand, pointed at Alex's chest, the so called leader backed down. Lowering his spear, he rubbed his temple, in an effort to calm himself down. 

"Look, we can't stay here, it's not safe. So many of the younger ones whisper about monsters, and stories of bright lights in the sky caused by The Wings of Wax looking for us, are everywhere!" Alex protested. Morgan was about to interject when something happened. 

A girl holding a spear and shield, covered in Moonshine flowers, came running up to everyone around the fire. She was one of the two people who were keeping guard on the outskirts of the base. She came running up with a face of distress, calling out Alex's name. Not caring for the whole argument that appeared to be happening the girl stopped in front of Alex, slightly out of breath. "They're here, they're here!" Her voice was soaked in fear, as she spoke quickly and quietly. "The Wings of Wax, they're here! They took Fredrick!" Her eyes began to well up with tears, as she lost control in her legs, falling to the ground.

Alex looked around, with an expression on... Fear? Although he was a little to stubborn to show it fully, he did let a bit of his true emotions shine through. "Corry, Davis, go and wake everyone up! Morgan, get Jax and him," He said pointing his spear to Cabe. "Out of here, then report back... We have a fight on our hands." Alex then picked up his shield and looked at everyone else around the fire. "Get a weapon and hide. Now!" As Alex finished barking up orders, everyone did as they were told.

Cocking her gun, Morgan grabbed Jax and Cabe and hauled them off to the nearest building. She would of thrown the two into a storage room. "Pick up a weapon and shield, and don't come out, not until I get  back, alright?" Jax was quick to nod, her expression froze in ghost white horror. From the distance muffled shouts of New Borns could be heard, followed by a few screams and struggling, and finally, gun shots. Giving one last glance to Jax, Morgan ran out, leaving the two alone as chaos erupted outside.

Jax, struck with shock and engulfed in fear, nodded to Cabe. She quickly stuffed her hands in her pockets, digging around for something, before finally pulling out the knife she used to chop up the beast. It's blue energy blade gave off a soft, cold, glow. She gave one more look at Cabe before joining him, in looking around for supplies. Picking up a shield, that looked about half her size, she gripped on her knife hard.

Cabe would be able to find many weapons, and variations. All the weapons were made of wood, except for the stone clubs. Wooden spears tipped with sharpened flint, stood up straight against the wall, while makeshift bows hung off the roof. A few stone clubs were mixed in with a barrel of wooden clubs. Off to the side were shields, balanced up against the wall. 

The sounds of fighting only grew louder as the seconds ticked by. Then the scream of man could be heard right outside the building, only to be followed with a body breaking through the wall. With the building's being made by children, it was quite easy for someone to break through. However, what was surprising was how this body became air born. Then once the dust and rubble cleared, it was quiet apparent that Alex had been thrown through the wall, and something far more menacing was standing outside.

A tall body, covered in red and black armour, stood at the opening. Armour padding was visible all throughout it's body, while cut marks lay on it's chest. A powerful looking gun was gripped tightly in it's hands. A pistol rested on it's right hip, and a knife on it's left. It's face was covered by a mask, similar to a fighter pilot's helmet, with a large tube running down from it's mouth, to it's back. Powerful machinery could be spotted in the armour, which gave way to how Alex had been thrown through the wall. 

Alex was now kneeling, his head down low, and his spear pointing up in the air. He lifted his head, where blood could be seen leaking from somewhere in his hair and mixing with his sweat. Getting back to his feet with a stumble, he pointing his spear at the figure. The figure did the same, raising it's gun towards the trio. Alex suddenly charged, with his spear pointed for the figure's chest. However, before he even made three steps, he was shot down. Receiving bullets to his shoulder and chest.

Jax hid herself behind Cabe, as the figure raised it's gun at them. Although, it didn't shoot them down. "Follow me, or you'll end up like him." The figure said, in a vaguely female yet mechanical, voice as it pointed at Alex. He was somehow still alive, breathing in heavily, and even forcing himself up. "STAY DOWN!" The figure showed, firing another round near Alex's head, just missing him. Alex quickly learnt his lesson and slumped back down. "Now, get out." The figure ordered.

The figure stood still, it's helmet locked onto Cabe for a few seconds. Holding it's gun up, it took a step forward. "Get out." The figure said bluntly, lifting it's gun at Cabe's forehead, then to Jax's. "Make me say those words again, and you won't have to worry about food ever again." With it's threat said, it motioned for them to get out once again.

Jax looked at Cabe, unsure of what to do, before turning back to the figure. It took a few seconds, but eventually, Jax took the first step forward. Switching her knife off, she hide the grip in her pocket, before going any further. Once close enough, the figure placed a firm grip on her shoulder, causing Jax to stop right in her tracks. An expression of cold fear lingered on her face, before she attempted to break away. Then in an unexpected turn, she suddenly switched the blue knife back on, throwing a clumsy stab for the figure's arm. With lighting fast speed, Jax stabbed the energy knife into the figure's wrist, causing it to drop it's gun. Jax was then, suddenly thrown about three meter's back, but the figure's powerful mechanics.

Slamming on the ground, Jax dropped her knife and just lay there, breathing heavily. The figure however, held onto it's newly stabbed wrist, doubling over in pain. It's mechanical voice screamed loudly, only to be drowned out by gun fire and other childish screams. It's futuristic gun lay beneath the figure, which had completely forgotten about Cabe, as it screamed over it's wrist.

Alex, trying to take advantage of this situation, attempted to force himself up. In a great feat of strength and will power, he managed to get onto his feet. Using his spear to help him balance. He attempted to take a few steps forward, before falling onto his knees. Holding his bleeding chest, he coughed up a few specks of blood, staining the wooden floorboards. "Take it's gun dammit, then get the fuck out of here." Alex groaned, turning his head to Cabe. "Grab the girl with the knife and run, alright?" Alex groaned once more, forcing himself to his feet, once again.
