[ WP ] Humans are successful partly because we 're omnivores and this holds true on the galactic scale as well . In the future humans have quickly become feared throughout the Milky Way as our soldiers are ready to eat almost anything ... or anyone .

When the professor had installed the tube through my stomach to my suit, I assumed it was for feeding me nutrients. It seems that I was mistaken. The opening was used as an exhaust port. 
 
 I looked down at the injured Kyrogen. Normally standing a bit over 8-feet tall, the galactic empire's primary enemies were tough bastards. Reflective scales and insane speed were the least of the reasons why they had been pushing the empire back for the last few hundred years. 
 
 `` Rico, are you going to put that kyro in your mouth or what? My fuel cells are running low.'' Jeanera said. 
 
 `` Have at it.'' I mumbled as the rest of the unit jumped in to eat him. 
 
 It is completely disgusting. At first it seemed that the human allergy to most plants on the galactic worlds would stop us from joining. But when some curious idiot decided to make a plate of the plant roots and some undercooked kyro meat, he exploded. The byproduct is a fuel source for our power suits, steroids were produced normally. 
 
 Being the only omnivores in the galaxy has put us on the top of the food chain. Literally. 
 
 Jeanera moved over to me, a slab of the kyro's neck in hand. `` I know you just got your titanium implants, that shit hurts your mouth something fierce. So I bit you off some of its second neck. The tender part where it produces venom.'' 
 
 `` Thanks, Jean.'' I was n't sure how to respond, as disgusting as it was, the reaction was mind blowing. One part pain killer, one part dexedrine, and pure steroids. Humanity was lucky we had the corner on this chemical binding, I do n't think we'd like to share it. 
 
 `` Alright boys, we got most of the kryos this side of the crater dealt with. Intel says the rest are on the other side of the dunes. Everyone take some extra meat with you, chew it on the way there.'' Captain Lawson yelled. 
 
 The unit started marching, each soldier with a chunk of meat in hand. There was a reason the galactic empire called us xenophage,'alien eaters'. At least that the polite translation. I hear that it means something more akin to rabid animal. 
 
 My stomach started to turn. The hud indicated elevated levels for pretty much every biometric. Damn, this stuff makes us hungry.
