Krystal seals the bubble after the storm disperses to ensure to brook no more acts of aggression from her. Also to keep herself safe she raises her own forcefield armour. She does make sure to turn off the radiation. "Now, Thank-you I will make sure your co-operation is noted to the officers and I have ended the radiation. Now the easiest way is to sit here and wait for the officers." With that she stands and waits. "I wonder how Balus is doing? I hope he is OK as I am really kinda nervous about meeting his parents." She asks aloud despite realizing that the only person that could answer is the criminal in the bubble with her.

" Thanks." Balus smirked. " I think that was a compliment. Any idea what was this all about?" His eyes never left Krystal as he spoke

Turning and seeing a superior, Upho then stands at attention. After a brief salute he says, "Sir, I was just trying to get the situation under control before it escalated. I realize letting them go is not exactly to regulations but I felt in this situation it was the best course of action," he finishes defensively.

"Relax Lt. You did good. But just a question - if it had been officers on the command deck instead of some pissy privates fresh out of camp on the grounds, would you have done anything different? Speak freely." Your CO asks.
(Krystal and Balus)
Spike Tail smirks. "It's a compliment, though the General might not see it that way. He and I used to butt heads every now and again over property damage back during the bad old days." he smiles wistfully. "Best see to your lady friend. I'll clean up - might even put you two in for a commendation if I feel like the extra paperwork."
The officers arrive to bring in Nightwitch, Six-Barrell, and SkullKnocker.

Krystal is happy that the event is finally over and extremely proud at how well she feels she did despite the fact she may or may not actually have done that well at all. She floats down to Balus. "I can not believe I actually pulled that off. But now where were we going to your parents." She looks up and down him not for noticing his looks but noticing something that does not fully sit right with her and her obsession. "Although I wish I could clean up and such, I imagine after that I must be a mess, and your shirt is all bullet ridden. Are you sure we should not stop somewhere to get some stuff, I mean are you parents really going to accept a girl coming to their place on coveralls. Especially one that is not really part of the military?" She looks up at him.

Balus shook his head, and without thinking, embraced her, careful not to squeeze" Don't worry about it. You were incredible." He smiled at Krystal. He wiped at the crust of blood at the corner of his mouth. " Mom and Dad aren't used to me actually being hurt either, so showing up with a fat lip will be more of a shock than you could ever cause."
It dawned on him they weren't alone. A little embarrassed, he looked at Spike Tail," Uh Captain, is it okay if we slip away before the news crews get here? Not sure how the Captain will react, but Major Troykr will probably blow a gasket because we got caught up in something like this."

"Well sir, I think the only reason this went so well was because these were enlisted men. If I were dealing with officers I think it would have to be more sever. I mean officers on the command deck should know better sir. Once the fight was broken up, they would have to be disciplined as an example I would think. I would probably still force them to shake. But to allow officers to fight and let it slide like I did here would be a bad example to the others, especially any enlisted men that were there. As officers we have a responsibility to be an example to the men."
Upho forgets himself and runs his hand through his hair, "honestly, I didn't realize we had an audience until I heard the snickering."

"Why would they blow a gasket?" Krystal looks confused as can be. "I mean is not helping others a really, really good thing? Or am I mistaken?" She is comforted by the hug realizing the questions she asked may not get answered. As a bonus the hug also hides her embarrassment from the compliment that Balus paid her.

" You obviously haven't met him yet. Not to mention I don't think the Major likes me." Balus replied as he released his hold on Krystal. " Sure, we helped out, but some people won't see anything other than a bunch of bio freaks scrapping in broad daylight, and thanks to all those stupid recruitment posters, I'm pretty easy to recognize. The ship doesn't need that sort of bad PR."

"Oh..." She trails off.
"Well then I would not want to get you in trouble, so perhaps it would be best if we were off then." She waits to find out if they are allowed to leave even though secretly she wishes that someone would appreciate the work she did publicly. Quickly brushing that off as being selfish though.

(Balus and Krystal)
"Sure thing kid, I'll get you out of here." Spike-Tail smirks as he has his officers escort you two away. A short time thereafter, a private black aircar is there to take you to Balus' parent's home.
(Fegh)
"Would you shoot them? If they were officers, that is." The Captain raises a questioning eyebrow.

"Shoot them? If the fight was serious and they showed no signs of stopping, getting physical would be necessary, but execution over a scuffle seems extreme to me. If they put others in danger, perhaps wounding them might be an acceptable course."
Upho is a little nervous, he isn't sure what the Captain is looking for, but he said his piece and now waits to see how it landed.

Krystal gets in the private black aircar to take back to Balus's parents house. "Well this is nice. So what should I expect when we get to you parents, or is there anything I should do that may help out. I am sorry, I have never met anyones parents before?" She is mildly nervous and riding the high from the adrenaline she had before so is much to say, very, very excited.

" Relax, would you?" Balus replied. " You can expect a million questions to bombard you from my brother and sister. Dad can be a little different, but that's because he's a politician. And mom, it depends on her mood. She might not say alot, or she could be open and friendly. One thing for sure, she's gonna fuss over me getting in a fight like that." He sighed.

"I am sorry. Like I said I have never met anyones parents really before and am just a little nervous." She sits there and wonders what it will be like when she gets there but mentally prepares herself for it.
