"I can't believe you killed her!" Ursy exclaimed.

"What else should I have done? She turned on us." He didn't holster his weapon. He had a feeling they might have to fight their way out.

"Wouldn't have helped. She already called in the muscle." Wulff rolled his eyes as he paced the room, looking for another exit.

"It matters because we could have used her as a shield to escape," Ursy snapped.

"You? Hide behind something?" he mocked, feigning shock.

"Not all of us are stupid. We are four levels high into this place, making us too far from my ship."
