Silas found himself running farther and farther till he found the slight entrance of the warp core. Sweat was wiped against his forehead, drenching the back of his neck. Trying to keep his hair slicked back from falling in first of his face.
Ducking from canon blasters that were blasting up from the high corners of the walls. Guards had fallen over one by one, causing more dead bodies lying around. Though he was disgusted, he kept his focus on the mission.
Olivia had been following after him, protecting from any blasts. She easn't let anything cost them the mission. The rumbles of gunfire hitting against the ship, slightly making them jolt.
He pulled himself up, immediately rushing over to a console, flicking the screen to show security cameras, "He did one thing right!"
Olivia knew exactly who he meant, obviously that was Jim. The scavenger was frustrated by who he had to work with, probably just as much as everybody was. Though to her dismay, she saw through the security cameras that Jim and recently beamed down, Spock were there.
"What about that Warp core?" Olivia shouted.
"I'm working on it!" Silas shouted back. Flicking his fingers across the console, though his eyes caught a glimpse of Amaya and Brystal running past them.
They seemed to be okay, except the occasional shooting at guards, but they seemed unhurt. That sent a wave of relief through him, much more than him just trying to stay calm. He'd been used to being the person scanning out things and various cracking codes.
It was much more harder for him not to just flick his fingers and go inside everyone's minds. He could control him anybody he wanted to with his mind. Make them do anything to get his plan to workout just right.
But he didn't. He hated thinking about how much that would make others suffer, so he pushed that idea deep down into his core. His mind searching for a better option then controlling others.
"What's taking so long?" Jim's voice called to Olivia's.
She immediately turned grateful to see him, "I don't know!"
"My god! Do you people ever shut up?!?" Silas shouted, his concentration was whacked out of place.
"I find that the scavenger requires silence in order to perform his duties," Spock responded to Silas's slight aggression.
Silas wanted to punch everyone around him so badly. Frida and Jason had at least been quiet enough for him just enough to allow him. He could know see why Brystal had been so talkative and demanding towards him.
She was persistent like the crew of the Enterprise, he wouldn't last one minute onboard that vessel. But he didn't have much of a chance if wanted all his crimes cleared or to leave a normal life. And that's all he wanted at this point.....freedom.
