For I Have Sinned

Name’s Rico Dredd. I was a Judge. I tried to save my city, and they called me a criminal.

Twenty years hard labour in a penal colony a billion kilometres from Earth. They gave me mechanical lungs just so I can breathe, laced my skin with polymers so I can walk in sub-zero temperatures. Stripped away everything that made me human.

I was a hero and they turned me into a gruddamned monster.

But maybe that was fate, because in the year 2089 disaster hit the prison, and it was down to me to

save everyone.

Sometimes the monster becomes the hero.
