Need a lift?

<snip>
A tremendous explosion reverberated from the other side of the door. An unknowing Mauve Midget had flown close to the Sidebottom's hull, and collided with the cloaked Star Bug, destroying both ships on impact. "Shit." Davie cursed under his breath.

Who: Justin Pancake
Where: In a Blue Midget outside the JMC Frank Sidebottom
When: After Davie's escape vehicle was destroyed
Justin finished picking off the last of the JMC Mauve Midgets, and the Starbugs that were broadcasting the frequency that was jamming the Blue Dwarf's wormhole drive. They could now escape, although with the JMC starship mostly disabled there seemed like no urgency.
Justin's radar screen suddenly erupted with more lights, making his heart skip a beat. "There's more of the smeggers?" He readied himself and placed his fingers over the trigger buttons on the flight control stick in front of him, ready to fire. As he got closer to the radar blips, he needn't have worried, they were all escape pods coming from the JMC Frank Sidebottom.
He wondered if he should open fire. Killing them all now might make life easy for them later. They were harmless in their tiny escape pods, with no ability to fight back. But they were working for the JMC, the enemy... supposedly.
Justin removed his fingers from the trigger. "They're only following orders." He said to himself.
He flew into the enemy JMC ship's flight deck and picked up Davie who threw Castillo aboard under gunpoint.
"I thought you might appreciate a lift!" Justin called back to them.
They took off, but a frag grenade thrown by Scythers behind them caused the Blue Midget to lurch forwards. This was all the opportunity Castillo needed. She punched Davie out of the way and ran into the cockpit, where she pulled the laser pistol out of Justin's pocket before he could even realise what was happening.
Still trying to pilot the craft, Justin felt the cold metal of the gun press against his head.
"Davie, can you please tell this woman I'm driving here?" He said.
Behind him, where Justin couldn't see, Davie was pointing a gun at Castillo.
"Don't shoot in here. Essential piloting equipment!" Said Justin. "Besides, don't you need her alive?"
Castillo thought about this. "You'll never take me alive." She said, and pointed the gun to her own head and squeezed the trigger.
