Ronnie shook her head. "I'm not leaving without Damion. If he's going to stay and take out Stryfe, the least I can do is stay with him." Even if it meant she ended up acting as decoy.

"You heard the lady." Damion replied as he walked back to Ronnie's side and crossed his arms over his chest. "Stryfe goes first." He smirked a bit before be continued. "Besides. He knows on his best day he doesn't hold a candle to me. Ain't that right, Pussycat?"

[NEW]

Logan raised a brow and replied. "You wish." He looked down to Jayna before he heard his ear piece go off. "Hold on. Go ahead, Remy."

=A=Mister Logan. As much as I would enjoy watching you prove Lieutenant Wolfe and his Ego wrong, we still need to proceed with the rescue.=A= Remy said over the com device.

"You heard him, Remy. He isn't going to move without dealing with Stryfe." Logan replied with a frustrated tone.

=A=Give him the com device please. I'll take care of this.=A=

Logan shook his head and remove his ear piece. He took a step to Damion and held it out. "It's for you."

Damion raised a brow and took the earpiece. Slowly he placed it in his ear and quickly replied. "Grumpy?! How the hell are you? How are the other six Dwarfs?"

Remy held back his annoyance and he cleared his throat, trying to keep his composure. =A=Mister Wolfe. Our mission is to remove you and Lancaster from the Night Star. The Calypso Security team is, surprisingly, doing a good enough job sweeping the corridors.=A=

"Sorry Batiste, but your princess is in another castle. Besides, I'm not done here. I have my own mission to finish and I don't plan on failing because you want to act taller than you actually are. I got my own set of orders. You're free to watch how a real field officer works and feel free to take notes." Damion replied, looking to Ronnie with a wink.

=A=Wolfe! Priority one is rescuing you and Lancaster. Stryfe isn't going anywhere. We have the ship surrounded. You're being an ass!=A= Remy said in an angry tone as he continued to monitor the action from Horus.

Damion shook his head as he looked to back to Logan and shrugged his shoulders. "I'm sorry, Grumpy. You're breaking up. I can hardly hear you. Try standing on your tippy toes or maybe standing on a chair." He than removed the ear piece as he tossed it back to Logan. I see he is still a barrel of fun. So you coming with us or are you going to continue listening to the man behind the curtains?"

Logan looked to Jayna before turning back to Damion and shrugging. "The way I see it, our mission is to protect you and get you back to the Calypso. That means following you till we get you out."

"Until we decide to stun him and transport him back to the Horus," Jayna added telepathically.

"You're smarter than you look, Fur Ball." Damion smirked as he looked over to Ronnie. "Ships going down and Stryfe isn't gonna go down with the ship. He's gonna want to save his own tail and risk as many people as possible in order to ensure he stays alive. Which means, he needs an exit. One that's fast. One that's strong. One that's stealthy. Which means?"

"Hunter's shuttle," Ronnie stated.

"Can I just shoot him now?" Jayna thought to Logan.

Damion nodded. "Max made it a point for me to bring it. I think there's a reason for it."

Logan shook his head as he looked to Jayna. "What's more important? Saving them or stopping Stryfe? Four Officers are better than Two. Don't you think, Babe?"

"Five, if we count the Andorian," Jayna said. Much as she disliked Wolfe, leaving Stryfe to take his revenge was not on the agenda. "So, what's the plan?" "Besides stunning Wolfe?"

"Plan is Pumpkin... " Damion said sternly as he looked to Jayna. "We finish the mission and ensure Stryfe has no other place to turn but that shuttle." He said as he took a step towards her than stopped. "And I trust that Andorian more than You, Your Kitten, and Scrappy Doo back in the Mystery Machine. So you can either follow my lead or go home because you don't have to speak for me to hear you." He added as he tapped his index finger on the side of his head back giving her a stern look with faded quickly.

"I get it. You're a take charge kind of officer. I respect that. However, putting that aside, I know more about this ship and this man than any of you. Plus, this is my mission. My case. Which means my lead. So let me tell you something Max told me a long time ago, and this is coming from someone we all respect. Save your attitude and comments for after the mission. Focus on the goal and don't deviate. You don't have to like each other to understand you need to work with each other." Damion paused for a moment to look between Logan and Jayna. "Let me simplify it. Hate me later. Capture the bad guy now. You have plenty of time to plot my death on your own time."

"No, I don't like you. You're arrogant and obnoxious. You make Grumpy look like both Happy and Doc. I still reserve the right to stun you if you get too far out of line and jeopardize this mission." Jayna replied, not at all disturbed that he was telepathic. Max trusted him enough to send him here, but he really needed to learn how to play well with others. "It is your mission, but remember, it's our rescue. As long as you don't jeopardize the first, I'll follow your instructions."

"There. Doesn't it feel better to have everything out in the open?" Damion said quickly, shifting his gaze between Jayna and Logan before finally walking back to Ronnie. "See... we're all getting along, now." He said with a sigh.

"For now," Ronnie said, not sure how long it would last. Knowing Damion, he'd say something before too long that would set someone off -- only because they didn't know him very well. "So, what do you want us to do?" she asked him, making it very clear that as far as she was concerned, Damion was in charge.
