Jor poked a finger into the the small hole in the body to try and figure out what was crammed in there. A puff of pressurized powder jetted out from the hole when his finger broke the seal and up into his face.
Surprised, Jor inhaled sharply and immediatly started coughing. "Helmets on! Helmets On!" he shouted. Between coughs. He said it out of reflex, realizing that Kayen had never taken his helmet off, and Angel didn't bring one.
Faster then either Angel or Kayen could react, Mr. Blue decided to make his move. A long cord shot our from his wrist and wrapped around Jor's leg. Pulling sharply, Jor was launched down the corridor, being pulled by the cord around his leg. His flailing form faded into the darkness of the hallway as he went deeper and deeper into the death, decay and decomposition that lined the walls of the corridor.
Jor tried to put his helmet back on but a swift elbow to the back of the head from Mr. Blue knocked him out cold. Mr. Blue put Jor's limp form under one arm and with the other cast a cluster of puck shaped grenades down the hallway towards Kayen and Angel. The grenades exploded well short of their mark but shot shrapnel out, the corridor enhancing it's deadliness like the barrel of a shotgun that angel and Kayen were trapped at the end of.
Without missing a beat, Mr. Blue lunged, leaping through one of the offshoot corridors with Jor under his arm.

Kayen turned quickly and tried to catch Jor but he was too late. He lifted his blaster rifle but couldn't get a shot without killing Jor and then the explosive shrapnel caused Kayen to jump backwards as he yelled "They got Jor!!!" He made sure his helmet was secure and then he tried to go after Jor but the explosion had knocked the corridor in on itself. "Son of a bitch..."

Minutes passed while Angel turned and used her perfect photographic memory to lead them back down the series of corridors to the Dragoon waiting for them. "Odball, fire up the engines and get ready to go." Angel shouted into the cockpit as she floated into the dragoons passenger compartment. The pilot started the process for engine start and a few moments later the dragoon was filled with the familiar sound of the engine rumble.
Mr. Blue on the other hand was busy with Jor, locking him down on a gurney and setting up a sedative to an IV drip. When that was done Mr. Blue went to the cockpit of his aging Lambda class shuttle and started it up. Being on the other side of the worldship from the dragoon, he had the advantage of using the data he'd gathered from the dragoons approach to follow it out.
The dragoon would have to go around the worldship before it could get on a pursuit coarse which was good since the lambda would never beat the dragoon for speed.

Kayen floated into the ship now and then he pulled himself into the cockpit and held on tightly. As he did that, Kayen yelled angrily "I knew this was going to happen!"

Oddball expertly flew the assault shuttle around the asteroid field, using the worldship remnant as cover from the asteroids in the field. As they came around they caught sight of the lambda class shuttle already clearing the asteroid field and preparing for a jump to lightspeed.
Angel ordered oddball to engage the weapons and target engines but they were well out of range. The lambda jumped to hyperspace. Angel was quick to memorize it's vector and started the dragoons navigational computer on calculating all possible destinations along that path.
Meanwhile oddball points the ship towards a coarse that would bring them back to Tishi and makes the jump.

Kayen quickly turned his head to look at the navigational computer screen and he started to analyze the paths quietly, shutting his eyes as he tried to find something in the force that would help him.
