In a room on a forgotten planet, a military officer is breifing a fellow soldier on his objective, the objective is to set up a basecamp and rate that area on importance and usefullness, and after a while the other man returns and reports his findings, the other man however sneers at the report and says "In areas like that we started. We picked you from one of those places, or do I have to put you back there, if it still remained." and the other soldier is like "Oh?".
The younger, less expiernced man nods as he remembers his homeland. A few days later, an unmarked ship lands on a planet in a system that has yet to be discovered by anybody else, he called this system "Haven" and started to build a base there, A mighty base for combat teams, his teams. They were soldiers of Avalanche Army, they were elites, some of the best in the universe, some had never seen them in action as they were legendary, but they were the best. With the rest of the army waiting for him, not knowing he was gone, he started his mission, and started a rumor amogn the ransk of a "lost unit" his planet was soon to be done, his ships soon to be completed. He journeyed far on his "new" planet remembering battles that had been foguht there and wanders around in the ruins of his own home. As he wandered one day in hias old home, a man runs from a cave and begins attempting to stab the officer with a old rusted knife, the knife being dull and rusty and fragile, snaps as it hits the soldiers armor, the soldier pulled the man off and ties him up with blinding speed. He sits down opisite his prisionor and calls on his suit radio for some asistance which a drop ship is ispatched to pick him and his captive up. The man looks at the captive and does a double-take, he used to know this man, many years ago. Zieborn was the mans name and Zieborn looks at the uniform with hatred and when the soldier (who went under the name "Karlf" which wasn't on his suit) asked what was his problem he said "Your army took my brother from my family years ago, my brother was Karl, he sometimes went by Karlf. He yells in frustration when Karlf smiles and says "Ahh, but you speak of which you do not know, he joined us, I remember him way back then." They get into a conversation and Zieborn asks Karlf for his name, Karlf gives it freely and Zieborn yells in amazement.
Minutes later, Zieborn is free and the dropship is coming down for them. As it drops lower and lower something shoots out of ruins near the edge of the former village the drop ship veers up to dodge it and Karlf pulls out his pistol and throws it to his brother and pulls out his assault rifle and starts to put his helmet on as people run out of the ruins and begin to attack and Zieborn begins shooting some and ohers stop and drop their weapons as Karlf telsl them to surrender, and IDs himself, to some run and hug him, they had not forgotten him.
but as they marched back they were attacked and some died, some lived. And some ran away at Karlf's seemingly uncareing manner as his mask assumed a look of annoyance and distaste even though inside he wanted to just run and hidde but made himself act tough. They trooped into basecamp despite protests from the tempray officer who shut up as soon as he saw Karlf but looked amazed at seeing people who they had not brought. That night during an attack Karlf disappeared and turmoil followed, days later a ship reached HQ on a difrent planet, and the man inside kept his face hidden and as he steped into his home, his wife sees the uniform and thinks "Karl is dead" and as the cloacked figure asks in a gruff voice for shelter as a friend of Karl, she says it's ok after he shows his ID. Little did Karl's wife know that the cloacked man was dangerous and she knew him well...
