Thread: Infinity's Edge (Arctic Fox & HaloHeroWolf118)

Nayas shuttle came out of her jump. She wondered if she had not landed in hell. It looked like a giant skull. She melded with spacecraft from all over. From what she could see there were Badoon, Shiiar, Kree civilian ships, even a few Skrull apacecraft. A lot of independent craft too, freighters and haulers mostly. Falling in line she followed others in to land. The port was quite large. Landing she shut the shuttle down. She would need to figure out the damage, repair it then get to Xandar. Moving about a bit she made herself presentable. A reflection reminded her of the gem now at the base of her throat, she would have to hide that. She found a sleeveless trench that belonged to her sister, it had a collar that cover her neck. Only then did she open the hatch to exit. The air reeked but was breathable. She then did a walk about and noticed that part of a power disc coupling was gone. She would need a new one or be forced to make short planet hopping jumps. She then closed the hatch. And set about to look for someone able to do repairs. Walking a bit she realized she was hungry. She noticed the place seemed to be a mishmashed interstellar marketplace. A dangerous marketplace. some creatures looked at her leacherously, a few in distain. She felt like she was being led to slaughter, it made her nervous. She found a kiosk to exchange units. With certain codes she could withdraw some. As she stood there, her back to others a very large male approached her from behind. She felt him before he saw him. Turning quickly the male grabbed her by the throat and had her lifted nearly 2 feet up. Her green eyes wide in surprise as she grabbed his arm. She tried to speak, but with her wind pipe being nearly crushed she could not say anything. You are mine! Boss be happy, I be happy the Achaerian spoke. Naya began to get a bit panicked and a bit angry. She gave him a kick, it was stronger than she thought it would be and she was dropped even as he went down. Coughing a bit as she gained air. The alien yowled in pain as she got to her feet Going to be happy now? came out roughly. A light crowed had gathered to watch. Looking about Naya noticed that there were 2-3 others headed her way dressed in colors just like the Achaerian. One began drawing his weapon. Near a railing Naya slid to a lower level and began running. She could not figure out what the hell was going on. moments later she felt something wrap about her legs tripping her. She fell over a person sleeping on the side...or possibly just a body not hauled off yet. Rolling she saw a man in a dark blue jacket, different from the other 3-4 that were chasing her. Giving a growl she reached quickly and with rather surprising strength she snapped the bolo cables. She was off and running again. She needed a plan, she kept this up she was just going to die tired. Turning the corner she began to take on laser fire. It forced her back. After a moment she moved back around the corner again, no firing. Apparently they figured she had moved. She kept running again and saw a Kree warrior standing there, laser rifle aimed at her. A fucking trap! Halt Xandarian Naya stopped. There was no place to dive for cover or run for safety. You killed my family! she said angrily You are a threat to the Kree Empire he replied. Half a heartbeat later he fired striking her in the mid section. For Naya everything went in slow motion. She saw the plasma leave the rifle and come to her. She felt it hit her, a tingle covering her entire body, gathering in her palms. Her hands aiming at him. Then it was almost like life leaving her body. In a jolt pure energy left her hands stiking the Kree warrior reducing him to briquette and ash. For a moment she stood there not sure what she did or if she actually did it. Suddenly there was a volley of 4-5 more blasts coming in. It brought her out of her stunned state. She moved to duck for some sort of cover. Running she began to feel tired, like she wanted to faint. She finally slowed down after she figured she lost them all...then realized she was a bit lost now too. Leaning against the faade of a building she ran a hand through her bronzed hair. Blinking a bit, heart racing, trying to figure out what was happening.
