Eufaula bit her lower lip invisibily to keep from snickering at Husk's tone and Maria's reaction. The very thought that it surprised the rock princess was humorous. Anybody who looked at Husk could tell that he wasn't exactly a lover boy. Mm, but that was the way of the young. Marie had much to learn. Giving a sideways glance towards Zarva, Eufaula then crossed her arms and relaxed against the wall.<br/><br/>Her relaxation didn't last long...<br/><br/>She heard the first tap against the door. Then... crash! Piercing green eyes immediately shot to the intruders as hand reached for blaster. Were those eyes glowing, and red? Somehow, Zarva was two seconds faster than Eufaula. Not that it surprised her, but it still sent the grim thought of,<em>"Damn! Must be getting old!"</em>through her mind. Black boots spun upon toes as she twisted and followed Zarva. Hand was removing blaster from hip. She stopped just 14 feet in front of the two. Aim for chest... Zarva shot, it failed. Slight adjustment of aim pointed aim towards the head of the one Zarva did not shoot at. Eufaula fired...<br/><br/>Energy blast travelled faster than a blink of an eye from the tip of Eufaula's blaster, to... bingo! Perfect aim over the right side of his face. Gurgling scream of agony sweeped from the attacker. Weakly hand flew to cover his face, but there was nothing left to cover. A hole spread from his right eye down to his lips. Smell of burnt skin sizzled through the air, mixed with fresh blood as it poured from the massive wound. Eye gone, naught but a burnt empty socket. Cheek bone torn into and visible. Nose, what nose? You could see clear through and into the insides of his nostrils. Ear was laying over in the corner by the door, covered in blood. Skin was gone completely from cheek, allowing visible counting of teeth within mouth, they were not all there.<br/><br/>He was already dead, his body just didn't know it yet.<br/><br/>Weakly he tried to fumble his gun with his other hand hand. He fell over backwards, another agonizing gurgle of pain as he laid there in a deep pool of his own blood, still pouring from his face.<br/><br/>Eufaula smirked ever so slightly. She had hoped to shoot for a quick kill, but at least she made her mark. He wouldn't be any more of a problem for them. Maybe she wasn't getting so old after all....
