Wolfkin walked up behind Nova, and looked at the controls of the ship, "Need a co-pilot?" she asked casually, checking behind her making sure Tsaeb was on the ship.

"Once we take off the ship should do most of the driving," Nova replied, "Let's just make sure to keep an eye out for Krystazians."

Aeve looked down at the weapon uncertainly, suddenly it seemed heavier.
"I guess so. Does this one do anything weird I should know about?" She'd be pretty happy if it would just obligingly shoot things. Like Krystazians, for example.

"Where can I get me one of those?" Reagan asked. He hefted a boring old laser. "All I got was one of these. Never mind, I found some antigravinon thingies too." he grinned.
"We set to go or what?"

Whooooo! YOU'RE BACK!!!!!!!! Yaaaaaaaay!
"Antigravinon, eh? That's give 'em a field day." Shimei nodded at him, feeling a wild urge to laugh. She took a long, slow breath. No, she could not go berserker here. Not now. Still, a wide grin stretched across her face. "Let's get out of here!"
In two swift strides, she left the armory and made it out into the corridor. "Come on, Reagan, let's see what a couple of auld fighters can do when backed up!" She glanced back over her shoulder and winked at the others. "Hey, Aeve, Lilia, you're dangerous now, we'll see how many we can kill!"

Lilia grinned, and shifted her weapon so it was more comfortable to hold. She turned to wait for Aeve before following Shimei and Reagan. She wondered if they were the only survivors on the station ... it was an unpleasant thought. But still ... "The Krystazians had better watch out."

"Yeah," Aeve agreed dryly, shifting the weapon to a more comfortable hold and trotting after the others, "after all, there's nothing more dangerous than an armed biologist."

Reagan whooped and set off after his new friend in an easy lope. Finally, action! His adventurous soul had been longing for something like this, to fight back rather than stay caged or hidden like a coward.
"We'll get to a ship and board her," he suggested, "Then we can get the hell out of here and find somewhere to work out our next move. But I hope we run into some of these crystal bastards, I do love a good scrap." he told Shimei.

Shimei laughed. "Just try to make that ship big enough to fit me in too!" Her eyes sparkled with the rising excitement within her. They reached the end of the corridor and Shiemei swung to the left, back into the main deck area...then converted her momentum into a long leap across the open as she spotted the Krystazians making their way aboard.
"Reagan! Here's your wish!" she yelled back at him as she slid into a roll and came up shooting.
*******
Shatter Ice flashed an alert as he caught sight of one of the first humans they had tried to capture...inside their ship! He sent six of his remaining soldiers forward, all of them emitting a vibration to throw off lasers and other beams of energy.

Reagan followed Shimei's graceful leap and heard her calling him. With a half amused, half eager look on his face he followed, priming the antigravinon slides as he went. As he approached the open, he spun across it toward Shimei, flinging the slides with an expert hand into the midst of the Krystazians, rolled and came up beside his new friend, fingers in his ears waiting for the explosion and a wicked grin on his face.

Aeve stayed in the corridor as Shimei and Reagan rushed out. They were obviously more than ready for a fight. She wasn't. She stayed, back against the wall, peering around the corner as they shot up the Krystazians and cowered automatically when the explosions went off.
"Dammit, I'm a biologist not a hero," she muttered, keeping the gun pointed at the ceiling so she couldn't accidentally shoot Shimei or Reagan.

Shimei grinned as the antigravions explosions sent several Krystazians flying, and their combined shots scattered the rest to either side. They sent a determined fire back at Shimei and Reagan, and Shimei had to duck and take cover behind a nearby protrusion of crystal.

Lilia hung back behind Shimei and Reagan, but stayed slightly ahead of Aeve. She fingered her new weapon nervously and jumped out of her skin when Krystazians appeared and Shimei started shooting. Flattening herself back against the corridor, Lilia held up her weapon, hand shaking with nerves - she had suddenly remembered her only practical experience of combat had ended in her capture.
Then Reagan rolled a load of antigravions towards the Krystazians. Lilia crouched down at they exploded, and the Krystazians still standing sent back another round of fiercer, more determined fire. Lilia's grip on her weapon tightened, and as before when Shimei had attacked it unfolded into a shield, responding to Lilia's reactions.

The sheild hissed down, enclosing Lilia and nearly took Aeve's arm off. She jumped back with a yelp.
"Careful with that thing!"
Apparently the weapon didn't give much thought to innocent bystanders.

Shatter Ice, seeing his Krystazians could not simply break through the ambush, fought down his burgeoning rage and flashed, :MERGE!: At once, all of the Krystazians before him touched each other and melded into one, picking up the pieces of their fallen comrades as they did so. As a solid, reflective wall, they touched the side of their ship and passed through, leaving the way open for the humans who had ambushed them.
********
Shimei stared, momentarily ceasing to fire as the fantastic sight of the Krystazians literally melting together like lava froze her in place. Then, as they started to flow through the crystal wall of the space ship, she snapped to her feet.
"Reagan, Aeve, Lilia! Move! Move, now! They'll come through the walls at us! Hurry! Get off the ship!"
She was hastily resetting her weapons for close range fire and double-timing it toward the open ship hatch as she shouted the warning.

The melding of the Krystazians was a stunning sight.
"Reagan, Aeve, Lilia! Move! Move, now! They'll come through the walls at us! Hurry! Get off the ship!"
While pitched battle was outside Aeve's normal skill set (give her a pipette and she was a terror) running was something she understood. At least her legs did. They did an admirable job of throwing her into motion, running in the same direction as Shimei and Regan, making for the hatch.

They all tumbled through the hatch of the ship, rolling as they half fell onto the walkway. Rolling, Reagan was on his feet in an instant, staring wildly around him. They had perhaps a few seconds grace. Then she spotted a smaller, transport ship of some kind.
"This way!" he cried, running once again. As he got closer he saw with satisfaction the ship was Tu'manian and therefore likely to be speedy. Racing for it, he heard the sounds they'd been most dreading just as he reached the hatch keypad. Furiously he punched the pad and to his suprise it opened, not locked then.
"Get in!" he cried, "it's our only chance!"

Shimei grimaced as she realized it would be quite a fit with all four of them in that ship. It wasn't very small, but...
Aeve practically flew past her, her feet were moving so fast, and Shimei stared for a moment before a chuckle escaped her...followed by a cheerful laugh. "That's the spirit!" Drawing her blasters, she faced back around, eyes narrowed on the Krystazian ship as she waited to make sure that Lilia was safe as well.

The shield from her weapon must have been fairly thick, as the others' voices were quite muffled. Lilia did understand their meaning, helped in part by Aeve running past her so fast she was almost a blur. But -- how did she retract the shield again?
It seemed wanting it was enough; as soon as the thought crossed her mind, the shield gave a crystalline whine and folded in on itself. Lilia jumped, and was acutely aware of once again being vulnerable to the Krystazian's fire, but managed to control herself.
The other three were already at the ship Reagan had comandeered, waiting for her. Well, she thought to herself, Here goes nothing!
Taking a deep breath, Lilia pushed herself away from the wall and sprinted as fast as she could towards the others.

Shimei grinned as Lilia came hurtling toward her, and began to back quickly toward the ship, keeping an eye on the the Krystazian vessel until Lilia ran past her and reached the ship. Then, and only then, she threw herself backwards and into the ship, pulling the hatch shut behind her.
Twisting as she landed, she glanced around at the others. "Well, shall we get out of here?"
