Kassidy offers a quick nod to the Captain before taking several steps towards the target; at the last moment, she half-crouches then propels herself at an angle upwards, the flight thrusters flaring to life, keeping her suspended above the ground. Kassidy uses the maneuvering thrusters to skate side to side a few times, showing off some of the mobility, then burns rapidly forward towards the targets; Once close, about 25 or so feet, she brings the armors right up and fires several plasma bursts at three of the targets, then half-spins to fire the left-arm mounted mini-gun at yet another target....
Plasma @ Target #1 -> [dice=20+7]
Plasma @ Target #2 -> [dice=20+7]
Plasma @ Target #3 -> [dice=20+7]
Mini-gun @ Target #4 -> [dice=20+6][rand=983893162037654119355672996923423528794222447668915374535857859062]

Balus nodded," That sounds like a good idea, as long as your up to it?" he replied to Krystal. He looked at the remaining food, but all he could think about was his little sister. " Mom, you won't beleive this, but I've lost my appetite. Treena could use some company, I know I was scared when I started to change."

"Although, and I know this may not be the kindest thing to say, but I know from experience that we might want to get how exactly she changed. Especially physical as a just in case as you do not want to make her uncomfortable at all if she went through a complete bad physical change. If you know what I mean." She hopes that came across correctly as she is more worried about walking into a room if she got turned hideous and any small reaction can cause her to be even more upset then she could be. Although on the same token she might think this is the best thing ever too. But better to cover all bases.

" She's my kid sister, Krystal. " Balus countered," I don't care if she's a six legged puddle of purple goo that shoots fireballs out of her behind. I want to be there for her, it's what family does."

Krystal can tell Balus is worries and wishes she explained it better so he would understand what she meant but decides that this is best to just be here for him and stands in anticipation for the trip to the hospital

Kassidy destroyes her targets with ease as the Captain watches.
The Major nods. "That's correct as well, but you confronted him directly. Granted you tried to negotiate, but it was a noble, if misguided effort."
Balus' father nods. "We can go shortly, if that's what you want, son."

Fegh remains quiet for a moment before responding. He says, "if there is a chance to save lives I do not see how that can be considered misguided."

Balus nodded. " I do." He changed the subject now that everyone was in agreement. " So, who's the girl that Gil is seeing? He didn't finally get the nerve up to ask out that girl in his class around the block, did he?"

Kass pauses, hovering a few feet off the ground, glancing back towards the Captain. "As you can see, sir, the suit is quite a capable piece of equipment. I can attain flight speeds of up to 750mph, and a ceiling of approximately thirty-thousand feet. Additionally, its environmentally sound, and capable of operating extra-terrastrially. In addition to the plasma cannon and mini-gun, it also carries a grenade launcher and an energy blade for use in melee combat."

Krystal mainly lets Balus decide (Translation, parents house is in internet dead zone)

Krystal and Balus soon find themselves in the Walkir family aircar - a luxury model - zooming away to the hospital. Balus notes that his dad didn't answer anything about Gil.
The Captain raises an eyebrow. "Well, Major?"
Major Trokyr nods. "Works for me, Captain."
The captain nods and extends his hand to Kassidy. "Welcome to the crew of the Victory."
The major whispers an aside to Fegh. "Saving innocent lives is fine, but the lives of terrorist scum? Hardly worth the effort."

"Killing people because they hold different ideologies than us make us no better then they are. He may have been wearing a bomb, however he had up to that moment not harmed anyone," Regular says simply.

Krystal almost wonders if the silence about Gil is something more related to either him running away or something more drastic like actual danger. But not knowing him well enough or Balus not as forthcoming about family leaves her to wonder. Still she decides to leave it as this is Balus's time and she should just be here for him.

Balus was anxious to get to the hospital. He remembered vividly how he had felt when he had changed, and knew Treena must be just as scared. He could help but wonder that if his parents were focusing on her, then Gil couldn't be into anything he had to worry about. He couldn't help but offer Krystal his hand during the silence of the trip.

Kassidy steps forward, the faceplate of her armor flipping up (a la Ironman), revealing a pleased grin. After disengaging the right gauntlet, she takes the Captains hand and shakes it firmly. "I'm glad to be on board, Sir. I've been training for this for the last 5 years, in addition to my normal studies. I won't let anyone down." the girl responds, confidently. Inwardly, Kassidy has to admit to nervousness... practice was one thing, but active duty was a whole new ball-game.
(sorry, I thought I had posted >.>)
