rupture in the EVA suit stared back at him. So that’s where the
soldier’s handgun round went. Derek’s adrenaline must have blocked
out the pain but now it was coming back.
Paralysed in a catatonic state, Derek was almost unable to accept the
reality of the situation until the young soldier he met a few minutes ago
ran up. Hardly able to have her face seen through the reflective helmet,
she said “your suit is ruptured. We need to get you inside and out of
this vacuum now.” She had to pull Derek to get him to move as the
USOC forces closed in. To the left was the base of the bridge and the
entrance to the Orbi-Sec moon station. A haven from the madness. But
here, all havens would eventually be consumed by it.

Orbi-Sec Moon Outpost, Luna, Solar System
The airlock to the outpost opened as the young soldier dragged Derek
inside, abandoning the muffled gunfire and symphony of blood outside.
The bright light blinded Derek who was feeling gradually fainter. Little
did he know that this temporary haven would be destroyed within a
matter of minutes. The young soldier was able to drag Derek to a table
before giving up to exhaustion. She took off her helmet and looked
around, scouring the brightly lit room for help.
Nobody was there to help. It was such a minor wound and yet Derek
acted like his legs were dismembered. He’s no soldier, unlike the young
woman fighting for his life. She looked around once more and found
another EVA suit, although this was just for engineers; not soldiers.


Perfect. She walked up to it but before she was able to take it, Carter
