"I checked the backups."
"Well, do something," Kian said.
"What?Harsh language?"
Kian cried out, a warrior type of cry, and started to climb out of the chair."Freya!"
Freya leaped up."I'm not a pilot."
He slapped a few controls."Just line me up."
"You think you can do it again?"
"I will try.I am a magic man."He winked at her.
"What is this?What are you doing?"
"Just get me in range of those ships."
"Be careful!"Freya cried out.
He climbed a ladder to the roof.
Bahran shook his head."What is this, what is going on?"
"Here we go," Freya said.She flipped on a monitor that showed Kian standing on the top of the ship.
A target for the Terrans to shoot at.
And they did.
"What is he doing?"Bahran started to head aft, to the ladder and go get Kian's crazy self off the top of the ship."He has lost his mind."
"No, wait," Freya said.
"What is going on?"Caoimhe managed to say.She'd stood and took a few steps to stand behind Freya's chair."Why is he on the roof?"
"Lining you up now."Freya turned the ship.
Kian was dead on facing the coming attack.
And an electrical shock wave burst off him, into the nearby attacking ships.Like a horizontal concussion wave, it slammed into the oncoming fighters and ripped one in half.The other was damaged, but not as bad.
Bahran had never seen a Rhimodian do that before.His eyes opened."What was that?"
"A new trick," Freya said.
"He needs to reload or whatever, because that other ship is coming around."Bahran said.
Freya shook her head."He's a one-trick pony."
"I don't know what a pony is, but he needs to repeat it again."
Though Bahran saw the problem.Kian collapsed on the roof, down to his knees.
He spat out a curse and climbed the ladder to pull him back inside the ship.He threw open the hatch, and there stood Kian, scotch marks on the roof of the ship, and he was on his knees in the center.
"Come her, you idiot," Bahran said, climbing out.His feet were still on the ladder, but he was able to reach Kian and pull him back inside.
