The Marauders (2018)

Events were in motion and Rendyl was scared. She glanced towards the dead corpse still sitting seventeen feet away, over to her pod that was three feet behind her, and suddenly the thought of her parents entered her mind. The girl doubted they intended for their daughter to end up at the end of a scathing glare an alien who didn't know if Rendyl was a threat or not, but her father had pounded into her that she had strengths. Some were obvious, like being small to fit into tight places that adults couldn't. Others more vague like being clever. But he would always tell her that no one learned what they could do unless they tried.

Rendyl closed her eyes and pinched them tight in concentration and curled her body a bit closer to her core. To observers it'd look like she was in pain, but what happened next would shatter any image of this girl they would've had.

Rendyl lifted her head and stared directly at Aamra. Every member of the crew would feel a very strange sensation zip from the base of their skull up to the crown of their head in a jagged line, leaving a strong tingling across the back of their scalp as though a miniature bolt of electricity had went through their head. For the security officer and Luirae, it would be borderline painful.

The robotic soldiers on board would not be affected.

Trying to think of something crazy that Rendyl would be capable of, but nothing really comes to mind without her being caught before she could succeed. I do believe I've found myself in a writing corner where the only options require me to make a tiny AF post that wouldn't push any other people to post.

Rendyl wanted to return to cryo-sleep. With bodies strewn around, angry faces and guns aimed at her, and nothing to defend herself with, the girl obeyed the command. Kneeling down and placing her hands on her head, she didn't even bother to calculate how quick a bullet could find her head for resisting. But what scared her more than seeming combative is when the questions would start...can't exactly convince someone you're not a threat if you can't speak.

She shivered in place as she thought of what might become of her if they viewed her as a stowaway, or worse some kind of agent. Shifting her eyes from the floor to Aamra's expression, Rendyl cowered a bit more from the sight. She had wanted to meet aliens, but now with the opportunity to see one for the first time she was rethinking that particular desire.

in an effort to keep the posts more active, may I toss a post out now?

Alarms? Rendyl rubbed one of her eyes as she looked around. Grey walls, boxes everywhere, and what was that? A pile of clothes? The girl squeezed her eyes shut and squinted at it, only to recoil at the realization it was a body. Rendyl's mouth agape, she attempted to scramble out towards the feet end of her pod, only to trip over the control console and crash onto the floor. Her instincts were screaming at her to run run run, but as she started to do just that something clicked...

She glanced over at the body again, other synapses firing. Nine feet away, fur covered, surrounded by wood splinters and scraped metal flooring. Looking up for the first time, Rendyl saw the ceiling several dozen feet high, the room itself quite large. Too large for any sort of medical facility. This wasn't a hospital. Rendyl looked behind her and grabbed the corner of the console she had tripped on a moment ago, pulling herself up and looking at the screen.

Emergency Resuscitation procedure activated. Primary oxygen tube damaged. Rendyl looked up and noted that the pod was resting next to a wall, and the side of the metal was dented inward seven inches. A quiet hiss could be heard of she listened closely enough. She looked back down at the screen and attempted to swipe the alert away, trying to bring up the time and date. Unable to process request. Main motherboard damaged. Backup emergency release active.

Seeing it was useless to interact with her pod any longer, Rendyl threw her gaze back towards the room, only to see people. At first relief flooded her being, and then dread set in as she saw all of them were armed.
