The strange man put his prosthetic hand in front of his "eyes" (helmet, rather), as if to block the intense light of the Sparrowhawk, but he remains silent. He stands there, casually shifting towards the Sparrowhawk slowly... but his drone is nowhere to be seen. Suddenly, something hits the right repulsorlift engine, and the Sparrowhawk loses control, spinning away from the man. Moments later, a coilgun blast tears through the underbelly of the ship, entering through the bottom left and emerging through the front of the cockpit, mere feet away from Alpha's face. The ship was going down.
