Spinning Compass Comunications

[she's panicked and crying, going back and forth between talking in to the phone and to herself.]

DADDY!

Someone find my dad! You have to find him.

Can't be right, they'll find him. Just a glitch

Please, someone find Dean. Tell me he's okay!

Please.

I love you

Bucky and I are both okay. So are Tony and Maryanne. Clint got hit by a stray bullet but it was only a graze, he patched himself up and says he'll talk to one of the docs once all this is over.

I might try and send Bucky home for some sleep tonight.

If you are in need of rest I can hold up a shield from within the bunker long enough for you to do so.

Kalahira, mistress of inscrutable depths, I ask forgiveness.
Kalahira, whose waves wear down stone and sand.
Kalahira, wash the sins from this one and set him on the distant shore of the infinite spirit.
Kalahira, this one’s heart is pure but beset by wickedness and contention.
Guide this one to where the traveller never tires, the lover never leaves, the hungry never starve.
Guide this one, Kalahira, and he will be a companion to you as he was to me.

[After clearing her throat and a slight sniff.]

A friend of mine offered that prayer over my soul at his death. It's the prayer over warriors, fallen or lost, in the Drell religion. And Thane was the best damn assassin I'd ever known.

Are you still okay?

How's my Mama?

How are you?

There are the sounds of fighting and after a brief moment it's obvious that the phone has been dropped and accidentally turned on.

Fuck all of you, you fucking pieces of alien shit!

Strange sounds can be heard and to those that recognize it, it's the sounds of smiting.
