She had been leaning on a wall with her ear to it, tapping and listening for the hidden room when it suddenly popped open, and she nearly fell in. Vale caught the edge of the hatch, glimpsing a mass of red lights in the darkness before pulling herself backwards, backflipped and landed in a crouch, snarling. From the hole, the enemy swarmed out like ants emerging from a disturbed nest.

So much for stealth and luck.... "They know we are here, Nickelae, forget what i said. Use the ship lasers if you must, if we cannot do this silently, extra firepower is a good second plan."

She moved like a beast, running and slashing low at the droid's feet, crippling the front ranks to slow down the rear. Footsteps in the distance, two legs and much heavier, alerted her of the human threat coming. They had to clear the threat quickly, or be overwhelmed.

She bent down and lifted one droid in her arms. Hissing, struggling and scratching with its spindly legs, its main cannon charged up a powerful blast, aimed at her head, but Vale clamped her metal hand down and twisted the barrel.

It felt hot now, as the energy trapped inside grew and grew, unable to release. Sparks began to fly as Vale ran deeper into the room, with a cry, she hurled the droid at the false wall and ducked behind a table. Seconds later there was an explosion, sending shockwaves through the air and bits of plaster falling from the ceilings. With any luck, her improvised bomb had blasted a hole in the wall for them.
