"I don't want anyone to die," Amy finally said as she adjusted herself to be sitting up, "not because of this mission and most certainly not because of me." Her voice remained monotone, but it was incomparable to the amount of shame she felt at the moment, especially after how her father had reacted upon learning she was a part of the team that had raided his entire station. "I believe that reaching a compromise by talking it out is the best choice, but that's only if both parties are willing to refrain from blindsiding each other with a surprise attack."

Despite her words, there was a nagging voice in the back of Amy's head that kept telling her such peaceful meet was unattainable. And that much may be true, whether she actually believed it herself or not, but it didn't really matter as long as the rest of her crew mates (and her father's) kept their promise and behaved in a civilized fashion. 

"So what do you say, do we have a deal?" 

Amy's gaze fell on no one in particular. Rather, she was staring at a wall and the poor woman didn't even know it. Her father, after feeling some guilt because of what he had just done, nodded his head in approval.

"That's fine with me," he said, lowering his weapon before his subordinates behind him did the same. Amy felt some satisfaction hearing her father opting out of violence. Maybe she did save him after all.
