Meta note: This is the beginning of an on-going story that is a sequel to Forum 14 which is itself a sort of unofficial sequel to Bjork Wars (although I think Natalya said that it was cool). Also anything that Silva wrote in Hand in Glove in relation to how characters interact or previous relationships is canon unless otherwise contradicted.
Tales of a Future Star Empire: Arc Human Behavior Arc: Chapter of Fuck the Police (1)

Time: G.R. 2015
Place: A small outpost in Bavarian Controlled space.
Magician's Alliance is transporting supplies to Bavarian troops who are dug in on a top-secret mission. Along the way they stop at a small tavern and begin to eat dinner.

Two young recruits stand off from the rest. They are Wilhelm der Zauberer and Frederick Uberwachen.
Wilhelm: Frederick, dis is ze wurst.
Frederick: Nein, Wilhelm. Dis is ze wurst. Dat is ze chicken.
Wilhelm: That's not what I mean. I mean dis life is not for me. We worked so hard to get into ze Magician's Alliance and now we are playing delivery boy for ze Bavarians. I wanted adventure! Not this.
Frederick: Everyone starts at ze bottom. We must work our way to being ze top. Our magic abilities are still too small to become ze bigshots. Be patient, friend.

While the two young men below discuss the meaning of life, a lone figure sits atop a hoverbike. Watching, waiting.

The first guard barely notices the bike before it's too late.


MA Woman: Men! Put down ze wurst and be grabbing ze weapons! Intruder has been sighted!

MA Woman: Fire!

The woman, cut in half by the hoverbike gurgles out her final words, blood and spit frothing out of her mouth.
MA Woman: Get... her...
Her guts also fall out of her completely bisected torso which would be a slippery mess for a motorcycle but not so much for a hoverbike.

The silent assassin begins to dismount the bike.


A graceful, perfect 10 dismount.

Meanwhile the MA mooks retrieved their weapons.

The ninja pulls out a sword.

MA Man: My axe! The bastard sliced my ax clean in half!

Like the wind, the ninja begins a beautiful dance of death.


MA Officer: We have you surrounded. Come out with ze hands up.

The ninja drops the sword to the ground. It makes a vague clunking sound.
MA Man: Hey, that sword is wooden! He isn't even using ze metal sword!
The ninja pulls out a small white tube.
MA Officer: What is zat? Pick your sword up again and fight us like true man!

MA Officer: Scheiße...



The MA Officer takes a lazer sword to the gut.


MA Captain: Hey! Ninja! We have a trained sniper and you are still surrounded. Surrender at once!

In a flash, the lazer sword is flying through the air and the ninja is running towards two patrolmen.

The sword decapitates the sniper as it continues its arc.

The ninja picks up a gun lying on the floor and shoots one of the men.

Throwing the gun at the other man, the ninja races towards the hover bike and the incoming lazer sword.




Another one bites the dust.

The captain gets into the patrol car and a game of chicken ensues.

Wilhelm: The captain is pretty badass.
Frederick: You said it.

Steel grates on steel as the two vehicles collide. The hood of the car wraps around the bike.

Unfazed, the ninja jumps onto the car and stabs the lazer sword down into the driver's seat.

Explosion is imminent, obviously...
