The ship moaned and buckled, but eventually accepted the stress as it strained to escape the gravity of the planet.
"We're almost out...increase power to engines!" Seraph commanded to the computer, pushing a sequence of buttons. The shriek of the engines climaxed, then leveled out, as the ship floated in Zero G.
"We did it..."Tymen stated incredulously. There relief was shortlived, however, as two laser bolts rammed into the ships side, jolting it.
"What the?" Seraph turned to the side view port, to see Asari's ship barreling torward them.
"Evasive manuvers!" The three of the pulled on the controls, and the ship swerved out of the way of the Beagle just in time.
"Die!" Asari screamed over the comm. her ship looping back around to make a run at the ancient ship.
"Fire weapons!" Seraph commanded.
"We don't have any weapons!" Juiso replying. In a desperate, last minute attempt to do something, Seraph madly pulled at the controls, but accidentally, flung the vessel headlong at Asari's, leaving seconds until impact...
The A-space field collapsed around the Demon's massive ship. Infront of it sat the delicate blue marble of Carrotous.
"Sir, we've arrived at our destination." A guard informed Teross, which caused him to momentarily refrain from his torturing of a chained up and bloodied Tyio.
"Excellent. Proceed to fire the main-cannon when I give the order."
"Aye, sir!" Teross then turned to a beaten, bloodied, near-dead Tyio, strung up by his arms.
"Everything will be taken from you," Teross said to the barely concious demon, "as it was taken from me, first your friends..."Teross looked to the chained up Ducky and Blacksheep, "then your world. And then...killing you would be far to simple for you, death, and then a blissful afterlife. No, then, I will rob from you your very history, and your very existance." Tyio stared at Teross for a moment, then passed out.
