The sound got closer and closer until they both jump out of the shop. Then the building went up in a fiery explosion sending smoke and debris everywhere. Kikks got up to look for Kaylee only to be grabbed by the arm. He looked down to see Kaylee.
"What was that?" Kaylee asked
"That!" Kikks said pointing to a TIE fighter
Then a squad of stormtroopers turn the corner.
"THERE!" the trooper said pointing to Kikks
"Uh-oh!" Kikks said unholstering his pistol
He fired his pistol at the group of troopers hitting them in the head.
"We have to find Mal!" Kaylee said
Kikks nodded in agreement. He kept his blaster at the ready. As they were running, he could hear screaming and blaster fire.
"They must be all over town." Kaylee said
"Or worse." Kikks said
They turn the corner to be greeted by two stormtroopers. Kikks shot one. Kaylee grabbed the other and slammed his head against the wall.
"Grab his blaster." Kikks said
Kikks grabs the trooper's blaster. They run over to the cantina. Just as they're about to enter a dead stormtrooper falls out of the doorway with a bullet hole in between the eyepiece. Mal, Zoe, and Jayne walk out.
"What did you two do?" Mal asked
"I don't know?" Kaylee asked
"Well two of these idiots came in looking for him." Mal said pointing to Kikks
"We ran into six on the way over here." Kikks said
"They're all across town." Kaylee said
"Not across town." Zoe said pointing to the sky.
The four look up to see three cruisers in the atmosphere.
"We need to leave. Wash fire up the engines." Mal said
"Thank god, these guys are closing the spaceports." Wash said
A shuttle lands and a squad of stormtroopers run down the ramp.
"RUN!" Kikks said
The group takes off running with the stormtroopers close behind. They were running with blaster fire whizzing past them. They run up the ramp of Serenity and take off.
"That was close." Wash said
"It's gonna be a lot closer." Kikks said pointing out of the viewport with a squadron of TIE fighters coming toward them.
