Ever thought you were something? The be-all to end all hot shit that wouldn't wipe off the boot of your enemy that stud or hero that everyone could rely on. The shining star in the night, a savior when one called for it? That is what Alex ever wanted to be, growing up in a desolate harsh reality: in this world, change came from within. Quite literally, as a young man, Alex got what he wanted he was groomed to be that hero. Things change when you are treated like a guinea pig, and Alex was a volatile one always prone to lash out and reject fate even when it offered him its slender, soft hand. He was a stubborn Soldier, but one that would meld and bond with Buvelle. There was a dark energy shared with the Aeon he called his. Being a servitor of life and power was all he was, a host and conductor for change in the eyes of the rebellion. No one ever asked if he agreed, nay he was just a useful tool one placated where it was possible. Nothing could hold back his rage, his corruption, or the sheer power Buvelle gave that young boy. He oozed potential, both sides of the conflict could smell it the Harlot more so. | That power was something that could be controlled, and early in to his ten-year stint as a Soldier, the egg heads up on high and stuck Alex with her. Elowen, she was something he was not. Beautiful, deadly, and a vixen but more importantly she was the light to his dark the balance to his chaos. It had been engineered that way, long before they had ever met. Normal people would call it love, or soulmates but being paired to someone he could relate to all along brought out the better side of our dashing rogue. Those three stripes as a Sergeant were all he knew, he was subordinate to her there was a science behind it. She could always find him, and calm him down and he could always hold out until she came. He was her guardian and she was his tactician. Together the pair were equally lethal, and the resistance's best-kept secret. Until, now. |
