Man
roams the desert constantly searching for food and water,
which is increasingly scarce on former Earth
colony V120368. Raptors are tasty and filling, but very
difficult to battle and kill, so
Man often
goes
after
smaller prey.
Man
is armed with a sharp
hunting knife, and a shotgun
-- a relic left over from the old Earth colony days
-- but it just ran out of
ammo. His hope is to continue waving it at the enemy.
If they believe it is
still loaded, then it can still be useful.
Man
travels and hunts alone. An enemy is an enemy,
whether he's made of flesh, metal, or happens to be
a woman. But his reptilian brain
is still vulnerable, and certain
forgotten instincts may be
reawakened
by the right input from a female, if she manages to
get close enough without getting killed first.
Man
has a name. It is a name he gave himself. It will be revealed when
the feature-length version of "Man vs. Woman" gets released.
