Skel Suit Novels & Stories

Chapter Two Dark hair, pretty tanned skin and spectacular hazel eyes. A taut mouth with a beautiful small scar at the corner, a stubble of hair at the edges of his well defined jawline which meant he had seen better days, and to crown it all up—a varsity jacket with the university’s model colors and a well outlined ‘B’ at the breast pocket.

Cale was sitting up, staring at the suit with open suspicion. "It's starch, Cale. It's supposed to be stiff. It's formal wear." "It looks like armor," Cale noted. "Ceremonial armor. Does it have Kevlar?" "No. It has silk lining. And please don't ask Mira for a Kevlar vest. She'll try to bedazzle it." Elion hung the steamer up. He walked over to the bed. "How are you?" Elion asked. "Scale of one to ten?"

"The chassis is calibrated to your physical biology. Your right arm isn't earthly iron anymore! It's infused with celestial silver! We have no idea how the void metal will react to lunar gravity!" "If I don't get in this suit, there won't be a city left to care," I shot back, stripping off my coat. I turned my back to the empty, terrifying exoskeleton. Corren wasn't here to pull the release lever, so I used the deep sight. I routed a kinetic pulse into the assembly rack, and the back of the chassis hissed open. I stepped backward, slotting my body into the freezing dark. The plates snapped shut. The thousands of silver neural-needles violently pierced my skin.

Liam stood in the entrance of the primary tunnel, his gloved hands resting on the high metal railing. He was in his full official practice kit—the sleek, midnight-blue compression suit that bore the understated silver crest of his training program. The fabric clung to his lean frame like a second skin, offering a taut, engineered support to his upper torso. Underneath the synthetic layers, his left shoulder felt quiet, steady, and remarkably cool. The phantom aches of the past three weeks had been completely silenced by the strict regime of rest and deep-tissue releases.

Sabine drops her robe, handing it to Nixon. “ What the fuck is she wearing? There is nothing to it.” I grumble. Sabine is wearing a green body suit. Or at least part of one. Most of it is see- thru with crystals on it and several multi colored scarf type things that make up a skirt. “ Relax. She is completely covered even though it doesn’t look like it. It is made like that so Pixie is more aerodynamic. If the outfits are bulky or loose they could affect her speed or spins.” Stone says in a gruff voice. He is back to the Stone I know.

Doom reacted. "Well, not going to lie, the sleeve part is my favorite. Also, the color palette is simple and uncomplicated," I once remembered I painted myself wearing all of the suits in each class. The bolt blue Keeper suit with elbow-length sleeves and hip-length cut, which I used to wear when I was a Keeper 9 years ago. The red-purple gradient Weaver suit with cropped layers, geometric cuts, and patterns made my complexion dark. The Herald's yellow-green long ankle-length fit with random ribbons on its sleeve—which I was accustomed to for the whole nine years—didn't make any impact on me. And wearing black and white leathery, single-sleeved, armor-like suits makes me look young and edgy.

The sleek lines and contoured edges lent an air of fluidity and agility to the overall aesthetic. Embedded within the suit were various high-tech components. Thin strips of luminescent material lined the edges, their soft glow pulsating. Hidden compartments concealed an array of gadgets and tools, ready to be accessed at a moment's notice. As Keagan reached out to select the suit, a surge of anticipation coursed through him. He imagined himself donning the garment, feeling its power course through his veins. It was a bold and extravagant choice, a testament to his ambition and desire to stand out.

I nodded at her in agreement. When I'd finished my sandwich, I stood up and shook my limbs out. Everleigh stood by my side holding a helmet that matched my clothes. I wore a sleek, black Sparco race suit accentuated with white details. The suit was custom-made for me, only one in the world, optimising protection and comfort with just a touch of style. My brother and sister worked hard on the design. Helios worked out the specs for the suit while Khione drew it and picked the colour scheme. It was a flattering design, capturing the shape of my body perfectly while also being number one for safety. One of my favourite birthday gifts.

She entered the run’s changeroom and went to her locker to pull out her orange outside suit, and checked it over for damage or weak spots. They had to wear them whenever they went out, it protected them from the elements, the harsh cold and unforgiving rays of light that reflected into the solar system. You could survive outside without a suit but it wasn’t pleasant. It was freezing and if you got hit by a ray of light it felt like an ice cold knife being dragged across your skin, it left a red mark too.

The ceiling was high, about 3 meter’s high. After Orbin had fed them the whole sack he came over (But not after Bessy and Skylar had finished inspecting the sack between snorts to make sure its actualy empty!) He was wearing a dark sleeveless brown leather coat made from some though animal hide, his huge blue coloured muscles rippled from his graceful moves. Waist down he was wearing a black strong stretchy pants and brown leather footwear. He scratched the back of his head and said, “Sorry I don’t have much to offer in the kitchen.”
