Judge Dredd Campaign - Part 4

 

Carrots in a Stew.

Once again we returned to the mean streets of Sector 4, home of Perry Pipkin, Grand Master of The Order of the Carrot.

In a city of 400 million there are more than enough bored citizens just looking for a little excitement.  The chance to do something with their worthless and pitiful lives.  Just waiting for the chance to be a part of something and feel important.  

For those in Sector 4 there is recruitment into The Order of the Carrot.

In the past weeks the PSI division have detected a number of spikes in supernatural phenomena.  Tasked with patrolling the area are Judge Allen and PSI Judge Blair.

Sensing the air thickening around her, Judge Blair predicts something strange afoot.  Barking an alert to Judge Allen the two Judges split up to cover more ground.

Meanwhile thousands of unsuspecting civilians continue with their lives.

With a twisted tortured screech The Order of the Carrot cabal finish their ritual.  Before them stands a brutal, bestial creature of unearthly power.  The air around the demon twists and crackles as the mere fabric of reality is distorted.

The look of horror soon changes to a grin as Grand Master Pipkin realises what he has done.

"I've done it! I've really done it!" Perry shouts. "Now the city is mine and with this creature from the dark bound to me no one will be able to stop me."

Looking directly at the hulking form he has summoned Perry issues his first command.  "Mighty beast of darkness you are mine to command.  I call out your name and bind you to my will.  Do my bidding...erm wait, what exactly is your name?'

A flicker of realisation shoots across Cabal member Jenkins face, quickly followed by the flicker of a razor sharp claw shooting across his throat.  Jenkins is dead before he even realises is.

Looks of glee turn quickly to shrieks of terror.  Without binding the demon by uttering its true name the beast is free to do as it wishes.  It's first wish is to punish the foolish mortals who have disturbed him.

PSI Judge Blair, feeling the changes in the air, closes on the scene of the crime.

Judge Allen circles around closing the net on the Order of the Carrot.

The hideous demon carves through Cabal member after Cabal member.

Judge Blair takes aim and unleashes a volley of standard executioner rounds into the demon.  Even creatures from another dimension should have a healthy respect for the 15 years of training a Judge undertakes before deemed competent to hit the streets.  Judge Blair is no mere rookie though.  Blair is a seasoned veteran with more than 10 years of on the street action under her belt.

Switching it up to high explosive the demon goes down in a hail of led, its foul corpse dissolving once more into the ether.

As the demon gets taken down the two remaining members of the Order of the Carrot throw themselves at the mercy of Judge Allen.

It's looking like Perry and his remaining gang member will have the rest of their lives in the ISO cubes to contemplate their actions. 

Thanks for looking.
