Processing what had just happened took about ten minutes. Ursa looked at Naefario’s image on her ship with horror, the shock apparent on her face. Her yellow eyes glazed over Takashi laying on the floor and Jean in Naefarios grip. She looked at the crew around her and Taylor who lay broken on the hologram in front of her. It was all too much..too wrong. So she shut her eyes. It took ten minutes to process the situation. It took less then five for her to figure out how to break it down to dust. Plus a millisecond put aside for song choice of course.
Ursa brought her hazel yellow eyes up to look at Naefario after Juniper had pushed her towards the hologram, her voice was weak, her expression hurt and angry as she tried to spit out a plea for mercy, “Alright.. you win. You have my ship and my crew just let them go and I will not put up a fight. I promise...Just don't hurt them. I..”
Suddenly she jumped up and slammed her elbow into Juniper’s gut, signifying her to react with violence.
Juniper watched the scene before them with a completely neutral expression. Inwardly she was hating every second of the others being hurt and manipulated. A sudden blow to her stomach took her breath away though, and brought her focus back to the situation at hand. Out of human instinct, she shot a glare down at Ursa who had hit her, and she knew this was her cue. She brought both hands forward, Ursa’s arm still in one, and ripped Mac’s arm out of her hands. She tossed it to the side and then grabbed at Ursa’s shoulders, quite literally lifting her off the ground and shoving her with decent force toward the right of the room.
Ursa tried to brace herself as she hit the panel with a hard thump. She hit the ground seconds later, her breath escaping her as she lifted her palm slyly to the left inserting a ghost chip in the panel as she lifted her body up off the ground. She spit out some blood, putting up her fists, “That the best you got Dick..faces!!!!”
Suddenly she slumped to her knees hacking up some more blood before she felt hands on her arm lifting her up to a sitting position on a chair to the left of her. She wiped her mouth, trying to calm down when Juniper came to grab her arm again and bring her towards the hologram. Ursa fought her weakly before she looked up at the screen, “You know Naefario...at times like this I always think to the beginning. When I was a young scrub who made her first million stealing some Kroton Units from Alagrath.”
Her yellow eyes turned to the screen with slight indignation, “I used my money for two things Naefario. The first was to put any advancement I could find to put onto that ship...ULTRA SIX FIVE FIVE TWO!”
Suddenly behind Naefario thick metal sheets covered the rangers doors and control panels, throughout the Ranger. Suddenly Dill shot up through the coms, “Ship controls under lock Cap. I can’t even open the doors without your voice recognition.”
Ursa suddenly felt a whole hell of a lot of guns turn her way. She remained calm her eyes still locked on Naefario and Jean, “Whatever was left of my money I spent on the greatest sound system you have ever heard….AND PIZZA!!!!!”
Suddenly Dill spoke softly, “Ready Cap.”
She turned to look up at Juniper then back to Naefario, “TRACK 7990 MOTHERFUCKER!”
Suddenly Queen’s ‘Don’t Stop Me Know’ bursted furiously into both ships speakers as Mac slammed into the room with a big rucksack that Ursa brought with her earlier on the ship. Ursa stood up pulling out one of her hidden knives and threw it straight into the hacker’s head just as he was running to the control panel before she turned lunging at Juniper slamming her to the ground as Mac pulled out a large overpowered looking gun letting forth a range of small green canisters that bursted into clouds of green smoke. While at the same time Dill wreaked havoc on the Gorefill, overriding the guns, control room and various robotic style machines that littered the ship.
After Juniper lifted Ursa up onto the chair, things moved rather quickly. She brought Ursa closer to the hologram as commanded and remained silent most of the time. She listened to Ursa speak to Naefario, who Juniper felt was the most vulgar being she had come in contact with so far. She listened to her speak about the things she used all her money for, and felt very confused at the pizza comment. Ursa did seem to love pizza, but this was all besides the point. This bastard needed to die. And in a few moments, she knew Mac would be coming into the room. She almost wanted to hold her breath, but figured that wouldn’t be helpful.
Ursa then announced a song title and at that moment a song burst through the speakers. Juniper almost wanted to laugh at the lyrics, but kept quiet. Though in that moment, Ursa slammed her to the ground and suddenly the room filled with green smoke. She squinted and looked at Ursa carefully. She whispered as close as she could to her, “You okay?”
Ursa lay on the ground as the room turned into mayhem, the world fading into black as she heard some words to the left of her. She turned to look at Juniper, “I don’t think so…”
She lifted up her hand to her new friend? showing her, the last adrenaline needle, “God I hope this shit doesn’t kill me…Now get to the door. I will cover you!”
She flipped off the cap and slammed it into her neck, her pupils dilating as she jumped up and screamed at the top of her lungs grabbing up a chair and slamming it into a pirate next to her. She ran forward, hoping Juniper was following her as she picked up a maul and flipped it over to slam it into the head of another pirate before she hightailed it to Mac who threw her a gun, “WHERE IS MY ARM!?!?!”
She stopped, turning around to look through the smoke before her eyes rested on the arm underneath the ass of a bird like alien who was hitting anything that came near him. She turned to Juniper, “Go to Mac! I will be there in a second.”
She turned towards the arm and ran forward jumping up onto a panel, where she slipped falling face forward into a pirate who was crushed by the weight of Ursa’s perky bossoms. She sat up, looking down at the pirate who just gave her a genuine look of pervy wonder. She gave an awkward smile then stood up, slamming her boot straight into his tent, just as she let out three shots into the heads of some pirates heading her way. She pulled out one her knives as she kept running, throwing her body forward sliding through the blood and grease that coated the dirty floor through a pirates legs right up to the pirate who was sitting on Mac’s arm. She slammed her knife into his neck, leaving the weapon as she pushed him over so that she could grab the arm. Once the arm was in her possession she felt hands grab at her shoulders. She turned around, gripping Mac’s wrist to slam the arm into her attackers head, before she shot out two more bullets into the pirate and another attacking her to her left. Suddenly she felt a kick to the back and she propelled forward into the ground. She rolled out of the way just as a knife came down to slam into the place she once was. She twisted her body around to kick her attacker in the face before she was on her feet again. She saw Mac in the distance and lobbed the arm forward, just as a pirate suckerpunched her in the face.
She hit the ground hard, wondering where all the stars came from before suddenly she felt hands at her ankles. She kicked forward knocking the pirate away from her when suddenly she realized it was Juniper. She gave the girl a weary smile.
Just as Juniper was told, she quickly made her way over to Mac who was waiting by the door. She tried to look back to see if Ursa would get his arm, but everything was still fairly smokey, so she could only go off of the noise around her. From what it sounded like though, Ursa was doing fine. Within a few moments, she was headed back toward them and Juniper could make her out, but before she reached them a pirate punched her square in the face. Ursa went down and then Juniper called out, “Shoot!!!” She lurched forward and grabbed Ursa’s ankles, and before she could look again, herself and Mac made their way back out of the room and headed straight for the cargo bay.
She felt Ursa try to kick at her, but she must have realized it wasn’t an enemy, and gave a smile instead. “It’ll be okay! We will be there soon…” Juniper said. She wasn’t sure she’d be able to drag Ursa in her human form, so remained in the form of the pirate.
Ursa let out shot after shot of the lone pirates who came hauling after them as they skittered through the hallway. She let her other leg drag below her as she let out a large boisterous laugh, “Oh a smuggler’s life for me!!!!” She spoke into the coms with her usual smarmy voice, “You better be ready fish boy because when I get to you, I am going to make you into a BUG FACED TUNA MELT!!!!”
“Even tuna would taste better if I’m honest…” Juniper said. She began to laugh and looked back for a second at Ursa who was laughing as well. They turned a corner then and went down a few more hallways, finally making it to the cargo hold. It was still frozen, if not more so than it was when they left. Immediately Juniper began to hold back some trembling, and she let go of Ursa’s ankle, reaching down to take her by the hand instead and help her up. Once she had her upright, she steadied her weight for her and turned her attention to the others. She saw Kira, Damian and Emmett standing there with sacks.
Juniper’s eyes came to rest on Emmett, and she spoke up again. “Alright, now the real question is. How do we get out?”
