To his surprise, they were not falling to their deaths. They were
soaring four hundred feet above the Pacific Ocean.
"But how-"
His question was interrupted by an ear-piercing screech. Sandoval looked down just in time to see a shrieking Atavis clawing at the air before it splashed into the ocean below.
"Look at that!" Majorkami gasped. A fireball lit up against the night sky. The Mothership was gone. "So much for all those Atavis. Oh, and before you ask, I'm not completely human. I was just cloaking my wings and horn."
"Explains a lot." He gazed up at the sky, and continued, " I used to look at the stars all the time when I was a kid. The Taelons never saw them as beautiful, and the Atavis don't care about anything they can't use. It's been a long time since I've been free to enjoy them."
"It is a beautiful night." Majorkami responded, but Sandoval had lost consciousness. A few moments later, Majorkami set down on a tiny island. She took out a Capsule Corp. capsule full of medical supplies and got to work treating Sandoval's injury.
" Don't worry, you'll feel better when you wake up."
She took out a bishie ball.
"This will accelerate your healing." She said, touching the bishie ball to the unconscious agent's shoulder. Agent Sandoval discorporated in a flash of light into the bishie ball.
"Hey, this is kinda fun! My first catch!"
She took out another portal dart.
"Onward, to find Sarai! And catch more bishies!" Majorkami cackled and portalled away.
