.“Yeah, it did,” agreed Dantone.He turned toward Calvin.“What next, sir?”“Guard the door,” said Calvin, as he got an incoming comm.“Calvin, Night,” his XO transmitted.“Go ahead,” Calvin replied.“We’ve got the control center,” Night commed.“You’re never going to believe this, but all of the doors lock from here.The replicator was built to have a minimal staff, so all of the passageway doors and damage control stations can be controlled from here.We’ve locked the Drakuls down.Assuming they don’t have a torch or a space suit, they’re not going anywhere.There are also cameras in most of the spaces, so we can tell where they are and what they’re doing.”“Good,” replied Calvin.“Take whatever steps you think are necessary to secure the replicator.We’ve got control of the bridge here, but there isn’t any sort of camera system onboard, so we don’t know where any of the Drakuls are.I am going to send a group to secure engineering.If you get some extra hands, please send them over.This thing’s huge!”“I’ll send what I can,” agreed Night, “but I could use a cyborg to help with clearance for a short while.”“I’ll send Staff Sergeant Dantone back,” Calvin replied.“Anything else?”“Yeah,” Night said.“One more thing.Azrael recommends making an announcement over the ship’s intercom.He says to tell everyone onboard that you have taken the ship and that anyone that wants to kill Drakuls is free to do so.If they don’t want to kill the Drakuls themselves, tell them to call you on the bridge, and you’ll send a unit down to do it for them.There should be a large number of non-Drakuls onboard; put them to work for you.”“Roger, that,” replied Calvin.“Good info, we’ll give it a shot.Calvin out.”He glanced around the bridge at the array of consoles.“Jones, Rozhkov, see if you can find the intercom system.We need to talk to the crew.”“Me?” asked Bob ‘Danger’ Jones.“I’ve got a microphone, but have no idea where to plug it in here.”“No, dipshit, he meant Jones the spy, not Jones the reporter,” said Master Chief.“As far as plugging it in goes, I’m sure I can help you find somewhere to shove it, if that’s an issue.”“Nope, not an issue, Master Chief,” said Danger.“I’ll just be over here out of the way if you need me.”“Found it,” called Irina Rozhkov, standing next to a dead Drakul that was wearing the remains of a headset on the remains of its head.“Really?” asked Mr.Jones, walking up.“Da,” Rozhkov said, pointing at the panel.“It is just like the one in the asteroid.” She pushed a couple of buttons.“Testing, odin, dva, tri,” she said in Russian.“They can hear you in the hallway,” said Staff Sergeant Dantone from the doorway as he left to join the group on the replicator.Rozhkov pointed to a green button.“Just push the button and talk, sir,” she said.Calvin took a deep breath and pushed the button.Using his implant to translate into the Drakul language, he said, “Attention throughout the ship! This is Lieutenant Commander Hobbs of the Terran Space Force.We have captured this ship, and I am declaring open season on the Drakuls.If you are not a Drakul, feel free to either kill any of them that you see, or call the bridge, and we will do it for you.If you are a Drakul, you have five minutes to come to the bridge and turn yourself in; otherwise, we will consider you an enemy combatant and shoot you on sight.If you choose to exercise this option, place both hands on your head and walk to the bridge.You have five minutes; your time starts now.” He repeated the message.“Think any of them will give up?” asked Master Chief.“No,” answered Calvin, “I don’t.Would you, in their place?”“Hell, no, I wouldn’t!” replied Master Chief.“I’d figure out a way to overload the engines and.holy shit.”“Yeah, that’s what I thought, too,” said Calvin.“That’s why I want you to take Randolph, Wraith, Witch, Mr.Jones, Miss Rozhkov and Jet and go make a sweep of the engine rooms.I have a feeling that you’ll find the rest of the Drakuls on the ship down there.Go stop them.”“Can I go, too?” asked Bob ‘Danger’ Jones.“It looks like that’s where the story is.”“Sure,” said Calvin with a smile, knowing Master Chief wouldn’t want the cameraman along.“Be my guest.” He turned to find Master Chief looking at him with a pained expression [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
