Fracture

Adelia sighed in relief. They were saved. She then knelt down next to Kaw, gingerly taking his helmet off. "Oh, gosh. Kaw, hang in there. We'll get you to a medic." Then she stood up and yelled, "Do we have a medic? Kaw got knocked out!" She looked like she could kill someone, with half of her face covered in blood and all of the scrapes, scratches, and bruises all over her body. When someone asked if she needed help as well, she glared at them and told them she'd be fine, but Kaw needed it really badly.
 
Wraith sheathed his blades and walked over to the commanding officer. "Thanks for coming. We really needed the help. What are our orders?"
 
"Return to home base, We'll get Kaw back to an infirmary." The commanding officer said, "Now goodbye, maybe we'll talk again later."
 
Overhearing Wraith's words with the commanding officer, Adelia watched anxiously as three soldiers picked Kaw up and brought him into the ship. Adelia walked over to Wraith, said, "We should get going." And went to board the ship.
 
"...Yeah." Wraith was loathe to leave his comrade, but these were orders, and he didn't have a reason to disobey them. Not yet.
 
The ship flew away. All well ends well. Well.. Not today. As the ship left the planet and was nearing another, screams rang out through the ship. The commanding officer cursed, pulling out a radio with Alpha on the line. "Dridax is on the ship i repeat! Dr-" He was cut off as someone grabbed his neck, snapping it like a twig and a thud was heard as he hit the floor. Dridax disabled the shields, the defences and the Communication system. "Plan succeeded." He muttered, Several aliens appearing behind him, "Get Kaw and get out of here. Of course we'll leave a nice surprise for them." He left a few hundred aliens on the ship, and put a small bomb akin to a nuclear explosive on the core. Dridax walked out of the ship, flying away.
 
Adelia ran to where Kaw was, finding that he, (Still unconscious, I'm assuming) was surrounded by aliens getting closer and closer to him. Getting out her incineration blade, she hacked into one from behind. Miraculously, she got to where Kaw was laying down and stood over him, hacking away at the aliens. She was miserably outnumbered, so while she was doing very well to hold off their attacks, it was only a matter of time when she would get exhausted and overrun.
 
Wraith yelled, spinning around, drawing his blades, and began fighting, executing his deadly dance with perfect precision.
 
The Dridax turned around, rolling his eyes at the human's stupidity. He waved his hand, causing Adelia and Wraith to go flying backwards. Dridax grabbed Kaw, raising his hand, "Toodles." And he disappeared.
 
Wraith bristled in anger, sighing. This was going to create a whole host of problems.
 
Wraith smiled, excited to test out one of the best features of his suit. He pressed a concealed button on his wrist, and the words "Overdrive activated" appeared on his HUD. All at once, the suit began collecting huge amounts of data and relaying it to him. He felt concealed parts of the suit open and he was ready.
He jumped.
As he jumped, light-speed boosters fired for a tenth of a second, rocketing him into the air. The suit felt the atmosphere change and sealed his helmet, making it air-tight and pumping oxygen into it. He landed perfectly on the hull of the ship, Drawing DayBreak slowly, methodically, from its sheath.
He was unstoppable.
 
He sank DayBreak into the hull of the ship, cutting through it easily. He spun around in a circle, cutting his way into the ship. He dropped down, the circle of metal creating a satisfying CLANG as it hit the ground. The aliens would fear him. He knew they already did. En Sabah Vrron. They knew him.
He resisted the pull of memories, his first mission... He pushed it out of his mind. There was no past. No future. Only now, and what he could do about it. He had learned that much from the nightmares.
And right now, it meant saving Kaw.
 
The Cavaskeran creatures crowded around Wraith, they cheered, they laughed, they thought about the bloodshed that they thought was going to ensue. Little did they know it was going to be a bloodbath.
 
Wraith threw DayBreak, spearing an alien through his mouth and into his brain, killing him instantly and releasing a flash of light as DayBreak ignited. Under the cover of the blast, Wraith ran along the wall, drawing NightFall, pushing off the wall, spinning in the air, and taking the heads of two more clean off. He landed kneeing the last in the throat. He went down, and just before Wraith slit his throat, he gasped, recognizing him. Apparently the story had spread.
"En Sabah Vrron..." he managed to choke out before he died.
No time to reminisce. He grabbed DayBreak and put it into its sheath, along with NightFall. And he ran.
 
Dridax was terribly bored. After kidnapping a nice fellow. The said nice fellow tried to decapacitate him. Things were not going well for the alien warlord. Not at all.
 
Wraith sprinted down the hallways, throwing his knives and dispatching aliens easily when he came across them.

All too easy.

Eventually he came to the bridge of the ship, where he ran straight through confused opponents and slashed all of the controls before breaking the window and jumping out of the ship as it began going down. It would have been unwise to fight him on the ship, he needed plenty of room to maneuver.

The Necromancer appeared before Wraith. A flurry of shadows crashing into the man. "Fun's not over yet I'm afraid." The aged Necromancer murmured.
