Looming in the distance, in view of both Jessica and Dylan's ship, was the silhouette of the mining facility, a small radar dish marking it out as obviously artificial...
The Heroine landed at an octagonal landing pad just outside the facility, and the mercs quickly marched in, Geero still holding the necklace in his long, slim fingers. "This is probably worth almost as much as that ship!" he said, mostly to himself...
Balak was still trying to keep his men calm, when his second-in-command Charn pointed out of the viewport behind him, where the Omega 4 Relay's glowing red core was beginning to pulse. "Here they come!" he shouted. Almost immediately, the whole cargo room fell silent, except for the occasional whimper from the terrified slaves, who were quickly silenced by a few clips around their heads by the Batarians. Soon enough, Balak watched as the massive shape of a gigantic Collector Cruiser emerged from space, having used the Omega 4 Relay as a conduit to the system. It looked like some kind of huge, foul termite mound attached to a massive metal framework. Balak's eyes widened as the cruiser drifted ever closer, and murmured, "We better get rich for this..."
"Heroes have morals. Villains have work ethic."
