"I'm hoping he's the guy that they just ran into." McKenna replied, then thumbed the comm. " Captain, we received a response and have a name. presumably the receiver's name."

"Are you going to tell us, or let us find out after we're done here?" Tawfeek asked.

"I thought you might want me to wait until whoever you're new friends there told you you what it was and I confirm would make more sense." McKenna said, trying not to sound smart mouthed, since she didn't mean it that way.

"Remind me to explain how these work to you." Tawfeek sighed. "Name. Now."
Meanwhile, outside the ship, the folks in front of Tawfeek were getting antsy. A couple of them were getting weapons ready.
Unlike their first encounter, the leader of this group did nothing, said nothing while waiting for Tawfeek.

" Well how the hell am I supposed to know...," McKenna scowled at the captain once again frustrating her so easily," Fine, the name you want is Jacob. I'm sure one of your frineds will be named that now." She released the button with a huff and looked at Mensk., Surely I'll be patching them up now."

"I'm looking for Jacob." Tawfeek said, calmly, to the other group.
"Well, you found him." Jacob - the leader - answered. "And enough playing around. We're not waiting any longer."
"Agreed." Tawfeek released his cargo to Jacob, waving Jessica and Foreman to do the same.

"You shoot it, you clean up the mess." Jessica tells Foreman.
Upon Tawfeek's signal, Jessica releases her cargo, watching Jacob carefully for signs of trouble.

Foreman releases his cargo as well.
"So are we done Captain," he asks.

Outside Nihilas Station
Jacob's men floated over, to grab the cargo, and the back towards the station.
"C.O.D, Tawfeek." Jacob said. "Next I'll take some for making me wait."
A little box then floated for Tawfeek to take.
Tawfeek didn't respond, but took the box.
"Here." He said to Jessica, handing her the box. "Guard it well." He was oddly quiet. "Everyone back to the ship. Let's ge the he'll out of here."

McKenna leaned over in Flip's seat, resting her chin on her elbows while she watched the monitors. It was boring, but then sometimes boring was good. She was just glad a panicked call for medical help hadn't come.

Foreman turns and begins to trek to the cargo holds with the others. "Can the next job be at a pleasure station or something? Not really excited about anymore space walks," he says as they walk towards their entrance.

Jessica takes the box handed to her by Tawfeek and starts to head back to the ship, watching out carefully for signs of trouble.

"McKenna, they'll be fine the fireworks are over." Mengsk turned to her, "Now try not to look to bored when the captain returns. I'm sure he's heard the expression about idle hands being the devils playthings.." then he switched a secured comm on the captain.
"Nice to see you left a ship for me to fix, Tawfeek. I was worried for a second you'd make us walk home with all that gunplay." Mengsk radioed.

On the comm
"First of all, I trust my men, and second of all, it was three shots." Clearly not as many as could be safely fired, in Tawfeek's opinion. "I'll plug a toilet for you, if it'll make you feel better." Tawfeek answered, as he floated back to the ship.
In the cargo hold
Once inside the cargo hold, Tawfeek shut the doors. "Stephens, collect all the loose equipment." He said, using his usual term for the weapons they were using. "And any that were left behind. Later, you can let me know the total value of our take. Foreman, you can resume your regular duties, once you have desuited."

McKenna laughed at Tawfeek's reply to Mengsk as she keyed the comm," It's okay Captain, I think I can handle things here. I don't think I'll need surgery to get Mengsk's boot out of his mouth." As she released the control, she laughed even harder while watching the rest of the crew on the monitors as they entered the hold.
