The door opened up as Orvos shook his head. He climbed in and took the helm seat. “Take seats and get ready. We’ll be there within minutes.” said Orvos as he powered up the engines and brought the yacht to life.

Once everyone was seated and situated, Orvos unlocked the docking clamps and allowed the yacht to fall free from the Aurora. Once away, he maneuvered the small ship close to the entrance of the designated Athena shuttle bay. “Prepare for transport you lot,” he said as the prepped the transporters for transport. “I’m going to beam you in discreetly.” Orvos pulled up a map on the main display of the area. “Show me where you want in and that’s where you’ll go.”

“Slap me right in the middle of their makeshift arena, Boss,” Stark smiled, “all the better to unleash my superpower, the tongue of sarcasm… I’ll draw their ire and then the rest of you can blindside them”.

Marishka raised an eyebrow and smiled at Stark. She knew he had more super powers than the tongue of great sarcasm but that would work for now.

“Put me on the balcony my dear. Death from above sounds lovely today.”

Marishka knew she could jump down from that balcony at a second’s notice.

“Very well,” he simply stated the crew assembled. Once Yami and Thoth gave their intended coordinates, Orvos stood up.

“Computer, transfer auditory command to myself,” said Orvos with the intention of being able to remote pilot/operate the yacht via vocal commands if need be.

“Computer, commence transport of each person to their designated coordinates now,” he said before adding to his comrades. “Be ready!” Orvos already had in mind to transport into one of the shuttles that had been moved aside. It provided him with good cover and was not so likely a place to be easily found.

Thoth had elected to beam in next to Orvos while Yami was to appear on top of one of the other shuttles. As they all materialised they could see Orion and Minotaur standing back to back in the middle of the “arena”. Minotaur had nothing but horns, eight feet of muscle and a stone hammer-axe. Orion had knives, sword and bow at his disposal. He looked small next to Minotaur but he too was heavily muscled.

Stark clasped his hands behind his back and started to circle the pair at a distance with an insouciant look and walk to him. Pausing, he looked at them both.

“Morons!” he shook his head in disbelief. “All this destructive power in a starship and you want to have a duel… you artless flyridden hedge-pig. Only a rank rump-fed ratsbane would be stupid enough to risk everything because of an over swollen ego.”

He stopped facing Minotaur, “Anyone holding a weapon like that is definitely compensating for lack somewhere else you weedy pigeon-toed wing nut”.

Marishka stood above the scene with a bemused look upon her face. She could clearly hear what Stark was saying and, knowing what she did about most male species, he was probably right about the minotaur. She had enabled the shield device upon materializing and, as Stark had spoken, she had taken time to study the scene. To fire or not to fire this unusual phaser.

Orvos listened with Thoth nearby. He put the disk to his temple for his drone, allowing the familiar linking sensation to commence. He didn’t launch yet, knowing that Stark still had an audience. He did have to stifle a snicker at his words. He continued observing, El Aurian phaser at the ready.

The Minotaur lowered it’s head and charged, Orion stepped to the side and drew his bow to take a bead on the Caitian.

Marishka leapt from the floor of the balcony to the railing and fired the phaser left handed. From her position above the minotaur she had a very good shot at the spine where his neck joined his shoulders.

  • Marishka

The Minotaur bellowed in pain as the shot hit its mark. It lurched to the side slightly but it’s momentum kept it coming forward. Orion shifted stance to fire at Marishka.

Stark side stepped and leapt for a horn intending to use the Minotaurs own momentum against it.

Stark Nighstalker CIO

As Marishka saw Orion drawing the bow and taking aim, she reached down with her right hand and slid the chain-sword from her waist flicking it effortlessly to deflect the arrow before she disappeared into the shadows of the upper catwalk.

  • Marishka

Orion bolted towards Marishka’s hiding place at pace.

Stark, hanging on to a horn managed to turn the Minotaur into the side of a nearby shuttle. There was a horrendous clang and then Stark was thrown clear over the other side of the shuttle out of sight of every one else. Bellowing, the Minotaur looked around for his attacker and noticed the others nearby.

Orvos immediately sent out his drone like lightning to hover over the towering minotaur. “Don’t you see how you’ve been manipulated? If we were able to rile you up this way, don’t you think someone else…maybe even Ares…could have manipulated you into doing his bidding? What purpose does it serve to attack us and keep the Athena unmanned?” He hoped at the very least it provided as a distraction for his comrades to take advantage of, if not a cause to the duo to rethink their situation.

-Lt. Commander Orvos Legen, CE

The Minotaur was enraged further and huffed air at the drone in a supernatural attack sending it spinning. Orion was the one who answered, “A half beast won’t heed your call human. Ares offers us power, Athena offers us nothing”. He had reached the ladder to the cat walk and started to climb.

Orvos managed to mentally catch the drone out of the spinout and sent it closer to Orion. “Human? I don’t recall any humans aboard. And what sort of power are you looking for, hmm?”

-Lt. Commander Orvos Legen, CE

While Marishka listened to the banter, she had slipped the phaser back into her belt, staying concealed in the shadows was definitely the right play at the moment.

Attacking from the shadows with expert skill, she took two of her throwing knives from her bandolier and threw them with the intended target being Orion’s eyes.
