Darian fires a magic missile into the trapper.
His missiles blast into the monster.
Tully says, "Listen
Trapper...there are four of us. We will kill you...that is a fact,
unless you free our companion. If you free our companion, we will allow
you to live."
He pulls out his blaster rifle and aims it at the end of the trapper. "Don't make me kill you!"
"This guy doesn't learn, does he?" says Vardui with a laugh.
The trapper says nothing.
Tully fires into the end of the trapper...still trying to avoid Watney.
The blaster fires, engulfing the bed, the trapper and Watney in flames.
Tully blasts the trapper again. "Sorry Watney!"
"Jeepers!" says Wang, "And people accuse ME of going off half-cocked!"
Tully asks, "You have any better ideas?"
When the smoke and flames clear,
though, you see that Tully has vapourised the trapper, Watney, the bed
and the floor under the bed.
A vrock demon in a business suit,
apparently occupying the room below yours, sticks his head through the
smoking hole in the floor.
"Keep it down up there, will you?" he asks.
Next
day...
