"I certainly couldn't risk the creatures infesting the ship." Sasaki replied, following Mami out. She was, however, correct. He needed to pace himself. He hadn't had any hope of the grotesque little things and their human puppets being a worthwhile energy supply and had still managed to find himself disappointed. He supposed the souls of those that had been transformed had fled long ago. A pity. He would have to let Mami take the next group.

Take them she did, wiping out the hallway with a blast that shook the stations walls. He nodded once to Homura as she conversed with her friend and felt the tale tell vibration of his communicator as information was broadcast on all channels. So the abominations had a name. The Flood...he looked around at the fleshy growths that were even now, scorched from Mami's attack as they were, still trying to grow and swallow up the walls. It was fitting. He decided to make use of this expert and spoke into his communicator. "Mr. Ascendant Retribution? My name is Sasaki Kojiro, an Assassin employed by the UUC. Tell me, if this infestation had a leader where would it be? I feel it would be much easier to deal with this situation if I were to take its head."

Before he got a reply he heard a strange sound coming from down the corridor. It would have been unbelievable were this any other sort of logical universe, but he was sure his ears did not deceive him. It was a song, growing louder. "Also, do they sing?" He asked Ascendant Retribution, leveling his sword in the direction the sound was coming from.
