Sword & Ripley
Ripley
Just got through a hostage situation on a derelict freighter. Ever had to pull a crew out from a hostile ship?
Sword
That sounds like a true test of courage. I’ve led men out of burning bridges and boarded hostile ships before; every rescue is a reminder of why we fight for the innocent. How did the crew fare?
Ripley
The crew made it out, but it was close. Some got hurt, some survived by luck. We pulled them out, got them to a secure deck, then abandoned the ship when the hull began to fail. It’s the same lesson every time: keep moving, stay focused, and never let the danger get inside your head.
Sword
I’m glad they’re alive—good work keeping your mind clear under pressure. The key is always the same: stay calm, stay focused, and let no fear cloud your judgment. Keep the crew safe, and the ship’s chaos is the least of your concerns.
Ripley
Got them out, patched a hole in the hull, and sent them to a medical bay. No one lost a life, but the ship’s gone to the scrapyard. That’s the price of a quick escape. Keep the team tight and the fire line clear, and you’ll make it out in one piece.
