《Galaxy Wars: The Legacy of Light and Darkness》Chapter 47: Crazy Idea Turned into Mission Impossible in The Space
Advertisement
James was standing in front of a small door compared to the whole room, but it was already five times as big as him. when Dora reached him, he was looking for the button needed to open it. he found it rapidly, but he didn't rush to press it.
Although there was no suction force from the outside space, if he opened the door like this then those inside the cruiser would feel something was off, and they might send people to check it here. So, James had a plan, which was a risky plan without doubt, but he had no other choice.
He turned to Dora and pointed to the button then he pointed to himself then to outside, then he pointed to her and pointed to the ground under his feet. Dora understood his message, but before she even nodded her head, James moved rapidly back to outer space.
Dora watched his back with shock, as they both risked everything to come here, and now he was going to the outside space, which was an insane rash decision in her opinion.
James knew he had to be fast, so he didn't even run, he jumped. He pushed his legs strongly to cross a wide area in no time with each jump. He wasn't worried about going out, he was doubting his return journey.
After his fourth jump, he was so close to the exit, and at this moment he stopped abruptly as he landed heavily on the ground. He glided nonetheless on the ground as he tried everything to reduce his momentum until he managed to stop a couple of meters away from the opening.
He knew he wasn't safe yet, as he didn't know when this cruiser would decrease their movement speed. James hurried and chose a random piece of scrapped metal from the ground.

It was like a replaced damaged piece of the external body of this cruiser. He then took out one cannon from his storage bracelet, although he gave all of his cannons to Rigo and other droids, he kept some to himself, few yet enough to solve his current problem.
James didn't do much, as that cannon had some sort of magnetic attachment. It was a way to make the cannon stabilize until the repairing droids started fixing it on the hull of the cruiser, but now Ibro used it as a must succeed step in his risky plan.
Luckily, it was a big pulse cannon which was made for small cruisers. James knew this type of cannon by heart, so he didn't find any difficulty in activating its self defense mode.
This mode was a tricky one, as it activated the motion sensors in the cannon. If anything moved nearby it, it would shoot that without delay. James then kicked that plate of metal with his leg, and he appreciated doing it in space, as there was no gravity at all thus no weight of any object.
He watched the cannon move slowly, but with increasing speed towards outside, and once it reached the opening of this room, James moved.
His move was picked up at once by the cannon, as its muzzle opening shone with blue white color. That type of cannon needed a few seconds to charge, and these few seconds were what made James feel lucky, as he desperately needed them.
The cannon shot, but it missed its mark, James wasn't faster than the pulse missile launched from this cannon, but the cruiser was. The moment when the cannon released its charge, it was already outside the cruiser, so the pulse shot didn't hit James, instead it hit the cruiser.
Taking such a shot from this short distance to the outer body with no shields or strong defenses made the result inevitable; the cannon blasted an opening at the cruiser itself.

During these few seconds, James didn't stop jumping without even breath towards Dora. Once he felt the tremor that occurred due to the cannon strike, he waved his hand towards Dora motioning her to open the door.
Opening the door was easy, as just pushing the button and the door opened smoothly, but Dora was faced by a sudden push from inside like a whiplash, and she moved back as a result away from the door.
She wasn't ready for that, but James was. He was already holding that metallic rope that he put into his bracelet from before. Just as Dora was pushed to the back, he didn't jump as he leaned his body to the ground, so his body managed to evade most of the first push of this air pressure difference.
At the same moment, he threw the metallic rope towards the front. Dora watched the rob as she already lost her balance and couldn't control her momentum anymore.
So she viewed this rope as her ray of hope, but she desperately watched it bypass her with small inches, which was like fate was playing with her. From her strong frustration, she screamed with silent voice, so she didn't see where this rope ended up at.
James didn't aim for her from the start, as he wasn't in a better situation than her, so he threw the rope towards the only fixed safe area in this place, which was inside this cruiser.
As for him, he didn't wait to watch the rope to reach his destination. He jumped directing his body towards Dora, to end up colliding violently with her. This made both of their bodies stop in place motionless for a second, as he watched her widened eyes from disbelief and loss.
This static state didn't last for another second, as the pushing force of her overcame the small momentum of James.
Dora's face showed horror when she felt her body move again towards outside, but when she looked at James ' visible eyes through his face protective mask, she didn't find any fear or distress in his eyes, instead she felt confidence and relief.
Before she could think of any possible logical reason that would drive him to feel like that, her body suddenly jolted by sudden traction force from behind and it stopped abruptly.
She felt severe pain all over her body, but she didn't care as she turned at once to see that metallic rope was tightened like a string on a bow.
James couldn't speak with her right now, or else he would urge her to move at once, so he only patted on her shoulder to get her attention. He then pointed towards the rope and then he started to move forward like climbing a mountain. Dora looked to him then to herself, to find the rope was surrounding her body.
She felt she missed many things here, but she didn't stand in her place motionless and started climbing that rope towards the inner part of the cruiser.
James and Dora didn't take long to pass the opened door, but when she was about to close it from the inside, James stopped her hand by holding it with his.
She looked at him with doubt, but he pointed to the front where there was a separating segment moving slowly to seal the area here. Realization struck her like lightning as she understood everything eventually, yet late.
