"Don't tell me what I need, angel. Your powers are useless here." His Captain would be pleased with his efforts. "Oh, I know they're coming. They're all going to come. They all want to be heroes and save their friends. This one would do anything to save the two of you. He wants so badly to try." He might have talked lightly of it, but he had to act.
He smiled at Heather again, a sly grin. "Such language Heather. Your petty little insults are rather entertaining you know." Pulling her back with him, he started walking backward, towards the room. "You come with me now, angel. Or you go back and warn all your friends. Either way, we win. You can stay on the ship, or lose these two. The choice is yours." His steps continued taking he and Heather backward, his grip on her arm strong.
