It wasn't long to wait. After fifteen minutes, the commanders of the gangs returned to their subordinates, and their leader made a speech to Samuel.

  • Our race is the oldest in this part of the Galaxy, - he began arrogant-" and we never suffered defeat by enemies. And you don't have to tell us what to do. I'm giving you a half hour maximum to give up, and then we'll go on the offensive. Don't expect to be saved by a protective barrier!

With that, he turned his back on us and began giving instructions to his subordinates.

Taking advantage of the delay granted to us, Samuel made a quick castling of the defense forces, strengthening primarily the Central part of the fortification.

Head of the Department of defense checked readiness of its soldiers, ammunition and a radio sent the order arrow on duty on Board the ship, warning them of the readiness No. 1.

Finally, the bandits moved in the direction of our camp. Surprisingly, they were quite orderly, measured pace, as if on parade.

Before reaching the protective wall about fifty meters, they stopped. There was a guttural command, and the enemy system bristled with weapons, which I saw for the first time. Yes,in weapons they knew good.

There was a new team, and then the bandits gave a volley from his arms. The bullets that entered our protective layer did not cause significant harm. In some places there were cracks, which were immediately closed up by our repairmen.

Samuel decided not to risk and gave the order to immediately hit back from the side guns.

Explosions of shells caught in the thick of enemies, at least half reduced their number. But it didn't stop our opponent. On the contrary, with the stubbornness of the bulls who saw the red rag, they rushed to storm our camp.

Close to the power of the enemy weapons was much higher. The here, then there began to appear gaps in our defense.

On-Board guns already could do nothing to help us, the battle joined the soldiers of the detachment of self-defense. Soon the struggle continued on the territory of the camp.

There were many wounded, and I have not had time to observe the progress of the battle, especially since the tent could not see anything.

Outside could be heard the sound of gunfire, struggle, groans from the wounds of the dying.

After a while, however, the noise of the battle subsided, but soon came a deafening silence.

By that time I had treated the wound of the last wounded man delivered to the medical center and looked out.

Apparently, the battle is really already over. And thank God, won our...

Several members of the gang were captured. Each of the surviving bandits was already bound. Among them I noticed and arrogant leader of the gang. Even now, he was very arrogant, stuck-up looking at the others.

Meanwhile, the commander ordered to equip a separate room in the hold on the ship, where prisoners should be placed and to provide reliable protection.

  • That's sad, - he muttered, - will now have a hook to do to get them in jail. Yes, and to repair the ship now have to spend more time.

  • What about the wounded? - Samuel asked, noticing me. - A lot of people? How are they? Will they be able to flight?

  • Only eighteen wounded, - reported ya. - Three of them moderate, others injured easily. They won't even need to be hospitalized. Those three can also be transported normally. Moreover, they will be under constant medical supervision.

  • Okay, then make sure they're transferred to the ship and placed in the medical Bay. You also check the condition of the ship, suddenly during the battle of its biological component was hit by a stray fragment.

  • I was going to see him, moreover, that the wound received in the previous battle, still not fully healed.

  • Sorry for question, Samuel, among our there is no dead? - I asked, worrying not only about Arthur and bill, but also about the other members of the team, with whom I had already become closer and become friends.

  • No, all our live, but our enemy is clearly not so lucky.Almost all destroyed. You've seen how many of them are still alive. By the way, they would also need to provide medical assistance. You'll see them later, how do you finish your business?

  • What a question, of course, I'll look, - I answered.

Making sure that the wounded were carefully and accurately delivered to the ship and placed in the medical center, I hurried to my main "patient". Fortunately, a new battle he had not suffered a new injury. The old wound's almost healed. By the time we leave this planet, there will be no trace of it.

I started the next task with great reluctance. The duty of the doctor commanded to help anyone, regardless of personality. And I, reluctantly, took two guards with me and went down into the hold, where the captured enemies were placed.

The room where they were placed, was without Windows. A dim lamp was burning under the ceiling. The room was divided into two parts by a grid, which was under voltage. Behind bars along walls stood couches, on which were on the ground prisoners. There is also a table and chairs welded to the floor.

The guards cut off the power, came with me behind the fence and took the sight of the prisoners. It seemed to me that it was an excessive measure. Former brave and cocky warriors looked depressed and moaned in pain. Only the leader still tried to keep an independent, proud look.

I quickly examined the wounds, treated them. They weren't heavy.

  • By the time we get to your destination, your wounds will be healed. - assured I its unwitting patients and walked out of the chamber.

Then I reported to the commander about the situation and went to rest. In the cabin, I found Arthur unharmed. He already slept without hind legs, and I did not Wake him, and took a shower and lay down next to him.

The next morning, all healthy crew members again began repair work. Two days later, the ship was ready to continue the flight.

During this time I managed to make one more sortie out of camp and to collect various samples of local flora and fauna. At the same time, we replenished the reserves for feeding the ship and the animals on Board.

On the morning of the third day, the start was given, and our ship headed for the planet, where we had to deliver the prisoners. The way to it had to take at least three or four days.

Finally, the team had the opportunity to relax after the labors of the righteous, and I was able to spend time with my Arthur.
