Hunter laughed, firing their blaster to hit one of the other blaster users. “See? You’re a natural!” they said. “Maybe you would like to test this out yourself, love?” Torian asked, deflecting one of the incoming blaster bolts with the shovel. It bounced clean off, and he would have stared the shovel in confusion if enemy reinforcements weren’t trying to appear behind them.

“Shoot the-” Torian started but his love was already doing what he wanted, taking the shot at the railing above the door with critical precision. It dropped down, blocking the path off momentarily.

“That should buy us time,” Hunter said, and Torian couldn’t help but smile when his love seemed to be enjoying this. Not that he was complaining either, as these aliens had proved out to be worthy opponents, even managing to damage his equipment.

”Hey, Torian,” Hunter said, and he turned to them. They were fiddling with their jetpack that had also suffered some damage. It would never carry them both away from here. However, Hunter seemed adamant about using it as they wrapped their arm around him. ”Ready?” they asked, their other hand on the controls.
