> The first skycycle appears over the top of a snow drift. Ted takes aim
> and fires [Strike: 21]. The well-aimed shot strikes the pilot itself
> [Damage: 14MD], damaging the its armor and forcing it to veer of
> course rather than engage.
>
> Shots ring out from the rest of the company, but all the heavy weapons
> men miss. Jacek, with his railgun strikes the Skycycle itself [Damage:
> 20MD].
>
> Then the next Skycycle appears, and this one doesn't make the same
> mistake the first one did, and comes over a drift all guns blazing,
> hitting two of Jacek's men and one of Oz's [Damage: 22MD] before
> return fire from one of the heavy weapons strikes a hoverjet, doing
> some damage and forcing the pilot to retreat. The two skycycle pilots
> fly very low and disappear over nearby snowdrifts.

Without turning, Alex responds, "I don't have any answers here. The best 
I can do is try to keep the girl under control."

Back to the demon child, "If you do anything I don't like, I will give 
into temptation from my dagger, don't let yourself think that concern 
for Ted will stay my hand."
