Bullet With Angel Wings

[Trinity Talon]

"Shh shh..." Trinity cooed as she ignited her own kilden. "Look what you did you Ajem bitch... you got the kids upset." she said and spun around and force pushed a sidewalk sign into Aiko. Only to sense another Ajem getting closer to her. "Y'know... this isn't how I pictured this walk..." she muttered and took a defensive posture as the other Ajem came charging toward her. "You could have worn lighter footwear, you're practically telegraphing your moves, there's a reason why you Bellatrix didn't pick you either."

"I'm twice your size little girl!" the tall, burly Ajem acolyte said through a mesh face mask that concealed a number of scars and wounds. "Now be a good girl and let us kill you and take your bodies back to Bellatrix."

"I really don't like being called 'girl' and you said it twice." Trinity said with a snarl, yet despite the Ajem attackers' rage, she tried to find her calm center. "But you woke up the kids we just spent hours calming down... so I may have to take your frakking head off."

[Kat Donovan]

Kat used the ijulna to push Aiko across the square. The smaller woman landed in a pile against a far wall.

Panting she saw another Ajem running up from Trinity's back. Kat threw her kliden like a spear. It struck him in the chest over his left breast. He stared down at the kliden with a confused expression on his face.

Using the ijulna Kat retrieved her weapon catching it neatly caught. She blocked an attack for back, and shot a heel into her opponent's knee, which gave a sickening green stick crack, and a scream of pain. She silenced him with her kliden in one economical swipe that severed the head.

[Trinity Talon]

Trinity gave Kat a look, "I had him... but thanks." she said and swung her kilden at another Ajem that came darting out of an alley way with two smaller shoto like kilden. "Oh, double wielding... so fucking impressed. Oops... sorry Simon, I said freaking...." she corrected herself and used the iljuna to pick up the kilden from the other Ajem that Kat had taken out with her spear throw. "Two can play this..." she said under her breath and started to match her opponent, who she could barely tell was male or female by the way the robes were so billowy and they wore a full face mask.

"You will die as will the crying little whelp on your back." the Ajem said through a vocalizer.

"Oh and you sound. Like. A. Robot." Trinity said with a mocking tone and matched two more of his... or her blows. "You're good... "

"But I am better." the Ajem said with a mechanical hiss and connected with Trinity's hooded jacket. "Give up and die with some honor."

"Give up is not in my vocabulary... I'm a Marine!" Trinity replied and tried to do Kat's trick of using a kilden like a spear, but the Ajem deflected it and sliced the handle in half.

"Pathetic... you think Bellatrix would have trained you better." the Ajem said coldly and pulled off the mask to reveal a half charred face. "I cannot wait to send you back to your grandfather in pieces. He did this to me." he said. "Soon, he will remember my name! He will remember..."

When suddenly he stopped talking and fell face forward to the ground.

"Remember what?" Trinity replied and nudged him with her foot. "Who shot him?" she looked around and saw another Ajem coming toward her, but he had his head exploded before he could even cross the street.

"Okay who the hell is shooting?" Trinity asked again.

"Me." A muffled voice from inside a helmet said as a tall, armored figure decloaked. "Name's Meat... 41st Covert Division. Donovan! Hustle up and stop playing with these monkeys... shuttle's down the street, I took the liberty of getting it for you."

"Meat?" Trinity raised an eyebrow. "Never met anyone named Meat... my mom dated a guy who had that callsign."

"And Bingo was his name-o." He replied. "C'mon... there's more coming, took out these last two because we don't have time to wait." he nodded his head to Kat. "Ma'am. Nice fighting back there."

[Kat Donovan]

She looked back with an uneasy expression, "Now, is no time fer compliments laddie. I wish I had finished off Aiko. She'll be after us, an I got lucky to be sure."

[Dylan Metrowiak]

"Then we better move now." Meat replied and snapped down the facemask of his helmet. "Tangos are coming on our position, how fast can you two run with those kids? We're about 5 meters away from the shuttle."

"Fast enough." Trinity replied and sprinted alongside Kat, leaving Meat trailing behind and kicking in his boot jets to catch up.

"You are entirely Angel's kid." Meat deadpanned as he looked around. "Alright we're clear for the moment... I had to hack the security on the hatch." he said as he opened the shuttle. "Who's the better pilot?"

[Kat Donovan]

"Dinae look at me lad. I canae barely pilot a straight line." She cradled Lilith in her arms and offered to take Simon from Trinity.

[Trinity Talon]

"Better than her at least." Trinity replied.

"Wonderful." Meat said with sigh. "Alright, I'll fly... it's not a tactical fighter, but I may need an extra set of hands at the controls." he raised an eyebrow. "You did get something with more than an asteroid pea shooter?"

"Got as much as I could." Trinity replied. "Supposed to have some decent-ish phasers and low yield micro torpedoes."

"So in other words my armor's got more weaponry?" Meat groaned under his helmet "Alright, that's fine... love a good challenge. Then buckle up and take the kids... Colonel, take the navigation and sensors. We're not stopping until we get to Terra Alpha."

"So commanding." Trinity teased as she closed the hatch and handed Simon off to Kat. "And I'm married to a General."

"It is taking a lot to resist calling you ma'am... but you're my ex-girlfriend's daughter. I was half worried you were mine. Not that I'd be upset."

"Nice save." Trinity said and got the shuttle pre-start going. "Oh lovely... Ajem are two minutes from us... think we can skip the preflight and get airborne?"

"Do you have to ask?" Meat replied and hit the impulse engine starter and set it for half impulse out of the gate and shot into the atmosphere. "Well, at least it's got good shields."

[Kat Donovan]

"It'll do," Kat replied. "And if no then we won't have long to regret it."

[Dylan Metrowiak]

Dylan chuckled. "In the immortal words of Jay-Z: "Whatever deity may guide my life, dear lord don't let me die tonight. But if I shall before I wake, I'd accept my fate." he retracted his helmet into the shoulders of his armor and pulled out a pair of glasses from the pouch on his thigh and slid them on. "So ladies, let's try not to die. I hope you're as decent a pilot as your mother Colonel."

"I'm no where near as crazy as she is." Trinity said with a sly grin. "Close though. And you can call me Trinity, I don't see any birds on my shoulder."

"Then you can call me Dylan. Technically I'm not ranked at the moment anyway. Of all the planets for you to come to, why the bloody hell Ferenginar?" Dylan said as he looked at them. "I'm only here because Ferengi have been paying me an obscene amount to run security that I'd be insane to turn it down. I'd have gone for my own shuttle, but that's too far away and these Ajem are not giving up. I'm reading a stealth shuttle taking off, should only be a few minutes behind us even if I redline the warp core."

[Kat Donovan]

"It was in the neighborhood so to speak," Kat replied. "We decided it wasn't a good idea to keep in an enemy shuttle and cross the Alliance border... and we thought it would throw Bellatrix off the trail."
