Like the majority of the crew, Elisa had hurried to the observation deck as soon as she'd heard the ominous announcement. Now that she was there, she couldn't believe what she was seeing. She recognised Howard. She'd apprehended him stealing from the medical bay only a few weeks earlier. But she didn't need to recognise the person suspended from the tentacles to be horrified by the sight.

The worst thing was the fact that this was only the beginning.

Before she could demand some sort of explanation, before she could even start to thinking of a way to stop what was happening, she was distracted by a familiar roar. It was full of anger, and, more worryingly, fear and pain as well. Drawing her gun, Elisa ran in the direction of the sound without any way of knowing what she would find when she got there.

What she found was the sort of scene she’d dreaded since waking up from the pods and finding herself in the middle of this battle.

Goliath stumbled, one hand trying to stem the flow of blood from the stump of other. She didn’t scream; there wasn’t time. She raised her gun at the Kessek instead.
