Captain Darkling Intergalactic Badass

* * * * * * * * *

When one thinks of a hero, a badass, one would picture him as tall, rugged, strong, deep tanned with a commanding voice. Captain Darkling has none of these characteristics, yet badass is he, in every sense.

In a quivery tinny voice he asked, "Do you surrender?" Looking up at a foe from his short stature, Darkling flashed his crooked smile. A smile that urges someone to reach out and hug you while patting you on the back, softly saying 'everything will be alright'.

The gargantuan muscular alien thug bellowed a laughed. The thug's associate said "that's Captain Darkling, don't laugh at..." but before he finished his last words, two alien bodies thumped lifeless on the floor.

Captain Darkling waited a moment for his laser pistol to cool off before he returned it to his holster. The gun and holster looked enormous next to the Captain's small frame.

Nonchalantly Darkling shuffled over to the smoldering masses. He picked up a broken off piece of coal burnt flesh and said to himself, "this should be proof enough for the bounty."
