Goldbody was already on his shuttle. ​He was within seconds of whizzing off when he heard, over his com, "I am deeply sorry, sir, but he is still alive."

     "What?"

     "And, uh, the girl as well."

     "What?"

     "Yes, and they're both headed your way, sir. They're on their way to the shuttle bay right now."

     "What?"  

     Just then, Goldbody's own shuttle took off, headed for the Skymaster.

     "Kill them," Goldbody said. "Kill them both as quickly as you can."

     "But sir, the mission..." 

​     "All of you now have only one mission, and that is to kill that damned man and that damned woman." 

​     "But I don't..."

​     "If you don't have a gun, grab a computer or a chair to crack their skulls. Kill them! I want them dead! Kill them! Kill them!" 

     "All I..." 

​     "Kill them!"
