shoot him in the crotch somehow.
Cole let go, nearly toppling Hauk. What's that noise? she asked, looking around.
A rumble sounded behind them. The wind stirred, blasting them with sand. Hauk turned, sure he'd see
the mob finally bearing down on them.
The ship hovered above them, lowering the ramp.
"Hot damn! Hauk whooped, running for it.
They clambered inside, shutting the ramp behind them, running up to the cockpit saved!
And Hauk was going to plant a fat juicy one on that hairy bastard.

Cole was so thankful to be out of that godforsaken Ustbol, she could've kissed both of the guys. She
was almost skipping behind them, following wordlessly to the cockpit, still catching her breath but
grinning like an idiot. As soon as she was sure they'd gotten away, she'd thank both of them and then

make sure they took her straight home.
They seemed just gullible enough she thought she could twirl them around her fingers with the right
combination of nagging and sweetness.
"I'd like to know why the hell we had to run out of there. What the hell did you do back there, Sylo?
the man with the incredibly long blond streaked hair asked the other man, whose hair was cut rakishly
short but with long bangs. Both of them seemed familiar to her, and she was sure she must have met them
on Vulkahn before. Their voices were the same as every other vulkahn she'd heard though that weird
accent got in the way so there was no distinguishing them there.
"Hey, they stole her first. I figure it was making it even stealing her back, the short-haired man, Sylo,
said, pushing through into the cockpit.
"That's the stupidest, federation damned thing I've ever heard you say. You planned that from the start,
didn't you, Sylo? the blond said. He mimicked his friend, We'll just buy her back and not start any
trouble."
Cole began, All right, guys. This was a blast, literally, but if you could just "
Cole stopped at the door and gaped, wide-eyed as a ... monster stood and greeted them with a frown.
It was covered with short, white hair and stood about her height, from what she could tell, and she wasn't
about to get closer. No doubt, this had to be Fuzzy.
"Thanks, Fuzz. You damned near gave us a mecre fit when you didn't show."
The hairy creature glowered at Sylo, who seemed to be the captain, and in a husky, whining voice,
complained at him in an incomprehensible language. Even with her translation necklace on, Cole couldn't
understand what Fuzzy was saying, but she had a good idea. The captain glared at Fuzzy as it he sat
down in a pilot seat.
Sylo and the other man grunted in unison, attitudes as similar as twins. Huh? We were moving around
too much? Well, we sure as shit weren't about to sit still so they could shoot us. He dropped into a chair
and buckled in, glancing down at a screen on the control board. He turned white. What the ? Oh shit!
Punch it! Now, now, now!"
Cole didn't have time to so much as brace herself for a fall. The ship slammed into gear, and she tumbled
down as it tipped, heading almost straight into the sky. Cole cussed a blue streak as she felt her balance
slip and disappear completely. She rolled back, down the hall, pulverizing every bone and muscle in her
body as she traveled the length of the ship and landed in a bruised, groaning heap at the bottom.
Further up the ship, she dimly heard an echoing crash. It was rolling toward her, sounding like nothing
so much like a boulder hurtling down to crush her.
"Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit, one of the men yelled, falling closer.
Drunkenly, Cole tried to crawl out of the way, but the room was spinning. Her stomach was choking off
the breath to her lungs, and she couldn't move for fear of hurling. As the ship rumbled and quaked from
their ascent, Cole did something she'd never done in her entire life.
She passed out cold.

"Federation damn you to hell, Sylo! Hauk yelled, gritting his teeth as he pulled himself to his feet. His
hands stung from catching his great weight on a door frame.
"Jesus! Hauk said, grimacing as the ship lurched. What the fuck is going on? he asked groggily into
the intercom before staggering to the back to check on Cole. He found her at the ass end of the ship,
laying on the floor.
"Got some heat on our tail, Sylo's voice came through the intercom.
"Guess they want that money, huh, numbnuts? Hauk grumbled to himself, dropping to the floor to
examine her. She was still breathing, strong and steadily. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
