Six shots plugged themselves into the back of the thin man as he approached the crate. The divers perused, taking formation at the stairs' landing before one fired a laser weapon at one of the empty metal crates above, causing it to disintegrate. As the small wormhole was beginning to be created, the grenade detonated, tossing the Space Walker back in the blast, and searing his hand, and toppling other boxes, allowing the diver to flee with his bag, and revealing his position to further gunfire.

	As the floor gave way, Joseph began falling. The burning sensation of Overheat was slowly lessening, and he had fully recovered moments before hitting the ground in the cargo hold.

	The lead diver kept shooting- and shooting- and shooting. But nothing seemed to happen. The air around his target was distorting, and the bullets were being embedded in the back wall. With a roar, he lunged forth, swinging the butt of his gun at the attacker's face, only to be slammed back. However, his back hit the console, causing the throttle to be pushed up, accelerating the boat with a jolt.

	None of the shots hit, but the pale woman was able to hide without further injury.
