CHAPTER 499

MJOLNIR'S HAND

"I don't know." Pian stated from the medical bed. "They unwrapped the shadows from around themselves about an hour into the flight. It all happened so quickly I was unable to act."

For'mya sat back away from the bed as Jalersi and Karun stood on either side. Pian's injuries had healed for the most part due to the more advanced medical facilities on MJOLNIR'S HAND. Kavalian medical clinics were no where near advanced and capable, and For'mya took note that Karun seemed to be visualizing everything he saw as they made their way through the Med Bay into this small section.

"And they waited until the flight crew made their first transmission to Apo Prime Control?" For'mya asked.

"I heard them talking." Pian spoke. "They thought I was dead and had stopped beating me. They were adamant about not killing the flight crew or they would not have been able to board your ship. And they did not want to anger the Union."
