Devon gets a face to face meeting with a Magog.
"This day can't get any worse," Harper said, as they watched the Magog get closer and closer.
"We could all die," Devon said, as Brian stepped on her tail as he backed away and she yelped in pain. The knife in his hand slipped and cut her hand accidently. Brian let her fall to the floor, and Trance and Harper rushed over to her side. "I'm hurt." She looked down at her bloodly hand and passed out.
"And she's out," Harper whispered, as he caught her before she fell to the floor. "Must be the sight of seeing your blood for the first time. That always threw me off."
"Is she okay?" Beka's voice called from the door and they turned to see Beka and Dylan standing at the door.
"Yeah, Boss," Harper said, as he cradled Devon's head in his lap. "She just fainted."
"Brian, we have got to talk," Dylan called out to him, as Rhade knocked the knife out of his hand. "You really can't go on like this. Forcing your way onto people ships, selling them off to that Magog, and then taking their ships. That's not a nice way to live your life."
"I didn't mean to hurt the girl," Brian quickly responded. "It was an accident."
"I know, but we are going to be attacked by Magog soon, and that wasn't an accident. You brought us here."
"I had to."
"Why?"
"It was either become one of those things or bring you to them. You can see which option I took."
"That doesn't make it the right choice." Just then the ship shoot. "Rommie what's happening?"
"The Magog are attacking to my hull." An annoyed looked crossed Rommie's face. "I'm not happy with the option that you took, Brian."
"Sorry."
"The Magog are on the ship?" Devon asked, causing them all to turn to see that she had woken up. "Why are they coming?"
"For us," Harper answered her, as he helped her gently sit up and ripped off the edge of his shirt, making a bandage for her hand. "You okay?"
"I think so." She snapped her head around at the sound of more Magog landing on the Andromeda. "That doesn't sound good."
"We'll keep you safe." Trance helped her to her feet and wrapped an arm around Devon's shoulders. Devon's eyes were full of fear and she began to shake.
"The Magog are aboard," Rommie informed them all. "What shall we do?"
"Get the hell out of here as a first," Dylan said, as Beka took over the command console. "Beka, get us out of here."
"You don't have to ask me twice." The Andromeda quickly turned around and headed off in the other direction, far away from the Magog World Ship. "Going to slip stream now." Devon let out a gasp and Trance tightened her hold onto her. "Entering normal space now." They came out of slip stream and into normal space. "Now what?"
"Now we take care of our unwanted guests. Andromeda, how many Magog are aboard?"
"Twelve," Andromeda answered, as she came on as her hologram self. "We lost a ton of them when we went through slip stream."
"Let's go make those dozen feel unwanted. Brian, you're helping."
"I can't," Brian said, as he face fell. "I don't want to face them again."
"Fine, you stay here and make sure that they don't get control of the ship." The rest of them headed off to find the Magog. Devon stayed close to Harper and Trance as she followed them, keeping her eyes open for any Magog.
Harper and Trance just turned a corner, when they were attacked by Magog. Before Devon realized what was going on, one of them grabbed her and she let out a scream. The moment Harper got a Magog to the ground, Rhade was there, and he snapped the Magog's neck. "You okay?" he asked her, as she grabbed onto his arm.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"That's good." He then rushed off to help Beka and the others.
