Challenge #03972-J320: A Debt Repaid

Mr. Sunshine was on a terraformed station helping to destroy it. Why? The dereggers that ran it had used child-slaves as their "cleaning crew". An old "friend", a level 2 deathworlder, is stuck in a fight with deregger security trying to get themself, and several of these children, to their ship so they can escape, but they need a help in the fight.

[AN: Terraforming is kind of difficult in an artificial environment. This station has to be on a moon or something.]

The message held co-ordinates and the most popular jump routes, and five words. Come quickly. You are needed.

Mr Sunshine came quickly. He also brought some of his more trustworthy allies along for the ride. From the urgency of the message, it was clear that they would need the extra leverage.

The deregger planetoid station looked like a paradise. Clean and green and lovely. Looks, of course, were deceptive. If one knew how to see properly, the initial impression soon fell to pieces.

Challenge #03961-J309: An Attempt Was Made

Biowarfare, one of the nastiest of all weapons. A dying person falls against Sunshine as he stalks a dereg world to hunt his target. The pale lips whisper "They're about to attack CRC, warn them." And hands the killer a file warning of the disease, engineered to try to circumvent the immunoflu. -- Anon Guest

The datachip was smaller than Mr Sunshine's fingernail. Light and small and easy to lose. Mr Sunshine added it to a case in his pocket. He knew

Challenge #03946-J294: Educating Sunshine

Mr. Sunshine takes classes in medicine and childcare. This will help for future rescue missions.

https://peakd.com/fiction/@internutter/challenge-03853-j201-the-next-step -- Anon Guest

It took a special kind of person to educate members of Pax Humanis. It was therefore no surprise that it took quite some time to make one. A B'Nari AI fully created to teach the dangerous. As many dangerous people as necessary. Though for this instance, Mr Sunshine was in a class of his own.

As always, if

Challenge #03945-J293: Caught in the Flames

They were not cleared for caring, technically they shouldn't be doing this. They were Pax Humanis after all. Don't give a damn, they held the child firmly but gently and ran as fast as they could to get to med station, and to escape the forest fire. -- Lessons

Some laws of the universe are incontrovertible. Don't eat anything that smells nasty. Don't drink anything that smells foul. Never leave a crying child in a place of peril.

Even when you're one

Challenge #03938-J286: Cut the Right Way

As Jay's knife slid into his target's chest, the wild insanity in his target's eyes faded for just a moment. The being grabbed Jay's shoulders, looked into his eyes and said softly, honestly, "Thank you for freeing me, the nightmare's finally over." -- Anon Guest

They weren't always sent after the powerful fascistic type. Sometimes, they were sent after the cruel and unusual. Those beyond the CRC's long arm of jurisdiction. Those who could not otherwise be stopped.

Mengele-class psychopaths. Operating in

Challenge #03935-J283: They Followed Him Home

A deregger wearing a collar and leash begged mr sunshine to be their owner. Why? Because their old owner had died at sunshine's hands and they were completely terrified of being free. -- Anon Guest

"You wish to... belong to me," said Mr Sunshine.

"Yes. I'm yours by conquest. They're the rules. I need rules. I need an owner. I don't know how to belong to me. It's too much."

Mr Sunshine knew his limits. "I'd be a bad master to you.

Challenge #03932-J280: A Drop in the Bucket

I'm violent, but I don't kill. I'm Pax Humanis, but I've never taken a life. My job is different. I'm a teacher. My methods are brutal, I've brought more than one of MY type of... student to the brink of death, but never killed them. They eventually learn though. It's an ugly job, but these b--rds need to learn, humans are NOT property, and are NOT to be treated as disposable. -- Anon Guest

So many think that Pax Humanis wades in

Challenge #03930-J278: Prisoner's Rights

Can we see what shape former CEO Zhetilli Ankhrian is in when the Pax Huanis members turn them over to the CRC? And what becomes of the former CEO after?

[AN: Also with reference to: https://peakd.com/fiction/@internutter/challenge-03876-j224-alive-and-unharmed thanks so much for reading]

Sometimes, Zhetilli swore, the only thing stopping them going further was her Havenworlder status. Even a Level One Havenworlder could perish under the wrong circumstances.

Challenge #03924-J272: A Breath of Fresh Air

On the planet, many of the population were sick due to the badly polluted air. One elderly individual, a lung disease causing them to cough blood, living in the streets, crawls to Sunshine and Jay asking the two kill them as they're hurting so badly life isn't worth it anymore. -- Anon Guest

"You're here for them, aren't you?" said the woman who Jay had loaned their mask to. It wasn't improving anything. "The ones in charge?"

"Yes," said Mr Sunshine. "They

Challenge #03918-J266: How to Join Pax Humanis

She went to the CRC and asked, of all things, to join Pax Humanis. She did not want therapy, though she knew she needed it. She wanted to kill ones like the ones that had done her harm, so that others would not suffer the way she had. -- Anon Guest

Lots of people think that joining Pax Humanis gains one a license to kill. Rene was one of those people. Once they were free from their Deregger homeworld, and free from

Challenge #03876-J224: Alive and Unharmed

I read your story and I could not help but grin at the comments. Could you elaborate from them?

"Bring them in ALIVE, understand?"

"Whole?"

"They need to be alive to stand trial."

"We promise the prisoner will be very much alive, and will be able to be made healthy enough to stand trial."

"Remember ALIVE means their BODY also has to remain alive, as well as the brain!"

"Don't worry, we promise they will be very much physically and mentally alive

Challenge #03868-J216: Live With Me?

Jay proposes marriage to Lilicoon? -- Anon Guest

"Independent living kind of terrifies me," she confessed, crochetting yet another square for community purposes. It was a form of therapy for her newer hands that had become a kind of nervous habit. "I know there's a community surrounding me, and people coming by to help, but... not having anyone there? With me? It sounds... lonely."

"I could cohabit? It'd mean an on-duty guard or... you could come to the sanctuary world. I'm okay

Challenge #03863-J211: Lucky They Were There

The child stood in the hall screaming high and shrill red-faced. Jay and Lilicoon find the child and get them to some help. Why is the child screaming? The place was very, very, crowded, and they'd lost track of the parents. -- The New Guy

It was too loud thanks to a fault in the nearest air circulation fans. They created a shrieking din so cacophonous that it was hard to hear oneself think. The local engineers were working on it, but

Challenge #03854-J202: Run, Rabbit, Run...

The Pax Humanis members find where he is hiding. A few knocks, then a small bang, the door is now wide open. Don't worry, you'll live through this. You won't WANT to, but you will. After all, we have our orders. And we promised our bosses.

Challenge #03853-J201: The Next Step

Mr Sunshine finds that his usual ... escorts, are around less and less often. And if he looks at his file, he's cleared to interact with kids, at least in public.

https://peakd.com/fiction/@internutter/challenge-03611-i323-a-small-alarming-encounter -- Anon Guest

Some psychopathic, sociopathic murderers have moral standards. It surprises everyone to know this. Most of them have a better moral structure than your average Deregger CEO[1]. Or, for that matter, the people who support them into power.

Mr Sunshine found himself examining
