Re: The Dividing Line - Station
Draven let the man have his say, at least until he mentioned about no one having actually seen the true horrors of what the Ashotur could, and would do, or having faced them the way he had. A sudden surge of anger rushed through him, though by the time it had boiled over with the sudden memory of something he hadn't ever wanted to remember, Fletch was already out the door. His eyes flaring to a deep red and glowing bright enough to briefly bathe the room in a red tint, he spoke only briefly before heading out into the hall. When he did, his voice had completely changed, sounding more raspy, and with a tone that might give anyone hesitation as to his intentions.
"Excuse me a moment."
He was gone before anyone else could say something, and it didn't take him long to catch up with Fletch in the halls. One moment the man would be stomping down the hall, the next he would find himself lifted off his feet, turned and slammed hard against the wall, the face of the pissed off Ingrali in his, eyes glowing bright enough to almost be blinding. His tone was the same as it had been in the ComCen, and while Fletch had only heard a few words from the Ingrali, he would be able to tell the difference now.
"You think no one has dealt with them the same way? Try having entire worlds ravaged and slaughtered by them, try having entire star systems wiped out by their ships exploding. Or better still, try having the woman you love killed by a biological weapon the bastards created with their Nnyrathall butt buddies, along with her entire species. Then watching as they ate the body, before you got there. There is a reason I joined this little venture of your people, and it wasn't for my fucking health human. At least your girlfriend has a chance to survive, and isn't already dead. So get your head out of your ass and man the fuck up, you've got work to do and someone else to think of. Moving her is out of the question and you know that, do you really want there to be a chance something blows up in the medbay and finishes what that abomination of nature finished?"
