Reylan turned to Ian with an unimpressed stare. "Praying ain't gonna save ya now Cap'n." He looked to his side where Tristan now sat, unconscious but suited up and gave him a quick nod. "Way I see it there's only one way of this ship, and your buddies are in my way." He raised to rifle up to a firing position and smiled at the Captain enthusiastically. |

As much as Trina wanted to move to Cole's body, she waited, silently and still until the seal was made on the door. Then she was scrambling, madly. "Cole!" Her mind was racing as she checked his vitals. Looking away briefly, she checked on Mike and then looked to Dom, just as the lights began to flicker. There was desperation written all over her features. "Dom..." Her voice choked to a halt. Reaching under the medical coat, she pulled the hand gun from it's holster and slid it across the floor to him. There was little else she could do for now with two down, two missing and a locked door. "Find a way, Dom. Please... I don't care if you have to shoot the gorram windows. It doesn't end like this!" |

Horizon Ian looked at Reylan and Khei and the unconcious Tristan. He looked at the still open locker and saw the helmet. He guessed what Reylan intended. "If one of us goes through the door real low to the deck and the other two start shootin a bit higher, we might get them in a cross fire. Khei, you can star a hack once we're free of this mess. They cant get to their shuttle ..." He trailed off on the sentence. He gathered that all three of them knew wht would happen. He picked up a gun or two from the deck. "I could toss these out first and say we're comin out. It's that or goin EVA to the Blaze and getting back into the Glory through her shuttle. Reylan, your choice." He looked at each of the three in turn. "It's your ship, Captain. What are your orders." This last he had spoken louder so the ones in the passage could hear. |

Horizon They're stalling you old man, Anders growled under his breath adjusting his grip on the rifle, knowing full well every second wasted swung the momentum away from his team and towards the defenders on that bridge making it more likely that his boys would be in danger going in that door and more likely they would fail to take that bridge. Alright then enough is enough. He made eye contact with Chen-Tsu, motioning to the flash bang and giving a slight nod, then in a low voice added, "Boots and buttstock boys, I'd prefer not to kill anyone." Sorry folks, I swear this ain't nothing personal. |

Horizon BANG! Chen-Tsu pulled the pin and rolled the flashbang grenade into the bridge as he and the rest of his team shielded their eyes. It created a bright, blinding flash and the deafening of one's ears. Shots were fired. No one was sure who shot first but it turned into a short, but bloody gun battle. Chen-Tsu and Donovan were down. Khei took a bullet to her left leg, taking cover underneath a table. Reylan was slumped onto a console, his brain matter scattered about the area while the limp body of Tristan lay on the floor. Chen-Tsu was clearly dead, laying on his back, blood pouring out of his cracked face shield to his helmet. Donovan was on his side, holding his chest as blood spurted out. Smoke filled the area from the amount of ammo fired. Both Ian and Anders stood a few feet away from each other, unharmed and both facing the end of each other's gun barrel. Suddenly the helm window began to crack from a bullet that had pierced it. |

It had happened so fast, Khei hadn't even had time to yelp in pain. She winced, barely able to see in the near-darkness. She could make out that Ian and one of the strangers were at a stalemate for the moment. Her anger started welling up in her chest. She didn't much care for the odds. Her EVA suit was damaged and should the helm window break she'd stand no chance of survival even in the suit. I'f I'm goin' down it ain't gonna be without a fight. As quietly as she could she got to her feet, grabbed for the closest, heaviest object she could find that wasn't anchored down that she could lift and launched at the stranger, swinging the object with every ounce of strength she could muster. If nothing else he'd be distracted having to shoot her, opening up an easy shot for Ian. Edited by Khei, Feb 13 2013, 01:23 PM.

Glory "Oxygen levels are at 85%." The automated female voice echoed through the dimly lit ship. Mr. Mack, the engineer of Siren's Call was able to cut through the seal on the main airlock door to Glory with a torch. A mechanical device was then used to force the airlock doors into an open position. Jenkins quickly met with Mr. Mack and explained the situation. "Oh.. They wanna pull some tricks on ya eh?" Mack laughed. "We will pick this place dry!" Mack laughed again as his voice bellowed through the halls. He grabbed his torch kit and proceeded towards the engine room of Glory. "I am going to dismantle the engine. Not much time for anything else on the inside. Keep watch until I return." Mack gave Jenkins a firm nod and disappeared around the corner while Jenkins stood guard at the main airlock leading into the Siren's Call. Brown stood watch at the sealed med bay door. He whistled feeling bored and then he looked into the window to the medbay to see what they were doing. |

On the bridge of the Siren's Call a comm channel hissed into life. "Unidentified vessels, hold position and prepare to be scanned." In the fraction of a second that followed, the ships pilot Lars scrambled over to the sensor screen and froze. He quickly shot a glance back to Captain Silver. "Feds." he said simply in a low sigh. |

Captain Silver spit to the side and activated the com to his team aboard both ships. "Feds on approach! Everyone pull back, we are leaving!" |

Horizon Ian looked over the barrel of Ghost and slowly brought Ryder to bear on the man who aimed a gun at him. If he played this wrong, they'd both be dead. "Looks like you're out gunned. Lower your weapon or die where you stand." He had seen Khei move behind the man and kept his attention on him as best as he could. |

While Anders was distracted with Ian, Khei was able to sneak up on him and slam a broken metal bar into his back causing him to fall forward and drop his rifle. Due to the momentum of swinging the heavy bar and her injury, Khei fell forward as well causing the bar to drop and make a loud clanking sound. The cracks were getting worse on the Helm window as they continued to spread. Anders heard through his ear piece that Captain Silver was recalling his crew due to incoming Feds. |

This was not how this situation was suppose to go, barrel to barrel with some fella, his crew dead or bleeding in that direction. That's what happens when you're out of practice, I aint a pirate no more and playing at it just got Chen killed.
Anders tightened his grip on the rifle sighting it on Ian's sternum. "Unless you got a gorammed army hidden in your pocket, this here seems to be a pretty even standoff."
The string of obscenities that issued from the now prone Anders was colorful, it didn't improve his situation any but it was certainly something to hear. As Captain Silvers announcement came over the com the swearing took on a different tone while he dragged himself to his knees, making sure to keep his hands in Ian's line of sight and not even bothering to go for his gun, "Well I guess this means I surrender," he said looking up at Ian, his eyes finally spotting the growing spider web of cracks in the Helms window in the process, Oh now this here is my luck, I just knew I should've just stayed in bed. |

Dropped to all fours, Cole, head down and tears streaming was surrounded by an eerie red glow on a rock in a river. Darkness on the right side of the river and on the left fire. Out of the flames Cole saw something that chilled his heart and gripped him with fear. All that I read about them, they couldn't be real. Baphomet, Merihim, and Abaddon approached the river bank from the flames beckoning Cole to go with them. Cole closed his eyes and prayed for guidance. "Lords please protect me and guide me that I may come through this torment safely. Amen" From somewhere in the shadows off to the right river bank Cole hears a voice." Come with me Cole and I will teach you the ways of the world. I will free you from the paralysis that you feel everyday. Come Cole before these beasts compel you to them. I will be your guide." Looking up into the darkness Cole couldn't see anyone or anything that would have spoken to him but he knew what the others were capable of. Standing up Cole ran to the edge of the rock and jumped to the right bank. The three demons howled with rage as Cole disappeared into the darkness. "Yes Cole you have chosen wisely." |

Ian heard the cracking of the viewport and knew time was short. "how much they pay you? I'll match it. You can have a bed of yer own, you'll have ta do chores and such, same as us.m But right now we need a shuttle, and yours is it. Time is short, answer on the way." He bent and picked up Andrews rifle. "Carry Tristan. Khei, use this as a cruch." He handed her the rifle. He hustled them fast from the bridge and closed the door. It would buy them a few minutes when the window went. "I have ta get back ta my ship." |

When she hit the floor a whole new barrage of pain exploded in Khei's leg. Well that went better than I expected.. She winced again, struggling to get to her feet. She nodded and gratefully accepted the rifle-crutch from Ian. Thanks boss. She didn't have to be told twice as she did her best to keep up on the way to the shuttle, mumbling along the way.. So much for not gettin' shot |

The fall from the table had done serious damage. The bleeding in Cole's stomach had started again and Trina knew he didn't have much time left, particularly without a transfusion of blood. With Mike unconscious and Dom left to find a way out of the mess, Trina was left with the only viable option. She knew her blood type and was well aware it was a universal type for donation. It was risky, but she wasn't about to just let go without exhausting every option. Drawing a small pen light, she flipped it on and went for the supplies she was going to need; needles, a sterile blood bag, sutures and medications. Placing the supplies down and the light between her lips, she raced to pull on gloves. First, she did what she could to re-close the open wounds in Cole's stomach. If there is any mercy left among the stars... spare him just enough to see him to safety... The prayer, not something Trina often did, came fleetingly and passed as her hands seemed to move automatically, not of their own accord, but as if something else was stepping in on her behalf, on Cole's behalf. The sound of the ticking clock began to fade as she felt like she was becoming an observer within her own body. She watched as the last stitches went into place to slow the bleeding and the gloves were peeled off. They were followed swiftly by the coat. A pair of IV needles were drawn from the bag, one laid on Cole's chest, the other was opened and connected to the blood bag. And then, the sting of the needle in her arm, brief as it was. In the meager light, Trina watched as the bag began to fill and fought the chill that wanted to wrap around her, pull her into darkness and sleep. As the blood approached the level she dared not pass, the feed was cut off and gauze was taped over the entrance point of the IV needle. The fresh needle was in Cole's arm before she realized it and the transfusion began. Holding up the bag to allow the blood to flow, her free hand went to Cole's neck to check for his pulse. It was weak and an influx of blood to his system too quickly might cause further shock, so she regulated the flow. The young, pale face in the tiny halo of light was the only thing she saw... Fight... fight for it, Cole... |

Glory Trina felt very weak and dizzy after the blood transfusion. Looking over at Cole she could see that he looked pale as a ghost. Checking his pulse, you felt no heart beat. You were losing him. On a nearby table there were medical supplies that were scattered around. Among them Trina saw a long syringe of adrenaline. Mack, Jenkins and Brown retreated to the Siren's Call. Mack removed the mechanical device causing the Glory airlock doors to close and seal creating a pressurized noise. Captain Silver turned to Lemon. "Disengage! Full thrust in the opposite direction of those Feds!" Lemon looked at the Captain with a quizzical look on his face. "But what about Anders, Chen-Tsu and Donovan Cap'n?" Captain Silver shot him a look of anger. "They are compromised! Do not question me again! Now move!" Lemon sighed and nodded while disengaging from Glory and powering up the engines. "Aye, Aye Cap'n." Siren's Call blasted off into the distance, away from Glory, the Horizon and the Feds. |

Horizon Ian was not aware of the Feds approch but did come aware of the other ship leaving as light from their exhaust flared through the viewports in the cargo bay of the Horizon. "They're leavin." To Anders he continued "I guess yer choices just got more limited. Work for me or die with yer friends back there, cause yer ship just left" He stooped and picked up the Med supplies that he ahd bagged earlier. "Let's get a move on folks. Ship here is goin South real quick like and we really need to be somewhere else when it gets to where it's goin." |

In the cockpit of the cramped Airtank, the pilot roughly spoke into his mic. "MR221 to base, I've got a runner here, permission to intercept and engage?" A few moments of silence followed, with just the vibrations of the two large engines behind him. "Negative." came the reply. "Identify remaining vessels and proceed with scans." The pilot sighed, lowering his thrust and veering a few degrees port. "Roger. Buzzing them in two." he replied, a little disheartened. With one free hand he began flicking various switches before carefully adjusting one of the wheels below. A screen overhead flickered into life as the short range scanners came online and targeted the nearest ship, Glory. |

Anders had more or less ignored Ian's initial job offer, instead he'd moved to check on Donovan, chest wound with arterial spurt was beyond Anders limited medical knowledge but he at least wanted to offer the man what little comfort he could. He gripped the man's hand roughly, "I'm sorry we got into this mess old boy, It wasn't supposed to go like this."
Anders looked at Ian, "This just aint my day." he reached up as if to run his hand through his hair old to find a his helmet, Get it together Horvath this ain't the first crew you out lived and with your luck it won't be the last. "You got yourself a deal though." He looked back at Donovan, if there was anything to be done for the man he'd try it in a hurry before getting the other unconscious member of Ian's crew off the deck, "Be right with ya boss man." he called to Ian. |
