At the same time, Dora was standing in front of the locked armory with a stern face as she began to hit the lock with her fist out of frustration. She had been held here for quite some time now without any signs of opening this lock.

'Stupid lock, why all my passwords don't work? Are you trying to prevent me from saving my mother? I failed to protect my father, and I won't repeat the mistake ever again. C'mon, open up a cold piece of metal, open up.'

She began to hit it and scream with deep anger and burning hatred. She wanted to go directly to the commanding deck and save her mother, instead she couldn't do that.

She had no weapons at all, and she was all alone here. that bastard had his men securing all the roads to the deck. She tried to sneak earlier and she nearly got caught.

So, she decided to retreat, behave logically and obtain some guns and grenades first. Then she would start hunting these men down until there was no one else except that Immortal.

She lacked any trust of killing him, but at least she could paralyze him with her gun so she could rescue her mother and escape here safely. She didn't forget James, the one who made her cross all that distance and achieve the impossible, but she knew she could either save one of the two, and apparently she chose her mother.

Amidst her anger, the lock suddenly peeped and the gate moved slightly outwards before it slipped upward and disappeared. Dora looked with disbelief to the long room that appeared in front of her.

Everything was dark inside, while she stood outside the room looking around her in doubt. She didn't do anything to open that lock, then how the hell did it open? She turned around looking for any hidden person, but she found none.

She sighed, no matter what the reason was she felt grateful. She entered the armory rapidly, where light appeared from nowhere once her foot touched the ground. There were a lot of weapons in front of her, lining with order in long lines that extended for hundreds of meters.

She knew this armory was one of the main in this cruiser, and it was meant to arm a whole army with different units, so she didn't feel any surprise by the huge number of weapons here.

The weapons were arranged from the personal guns ending with big spaceships cannons. She knew what she needed, so she went first towards the personal guns and picked up two guns, a pulse gun and spear gun.

She then moved towards the batteries corner and she got herself a couple of batteries for her two guns. She didn't know how long the battle would take, but she had to be ready for anything.

She then moved towards the grenade rack, and there she picked up three grenade belts, one for soldiers, other for defensive cannons, and the last one was with a huge destructive force that would create small holes even in this large cruiser.

She needed that, as she planned to exit here like she entered, through a hole in the cruiser, and this time she would create the hole herself.

Just as she was finished here, her ears picked up a slight sound coming from outside. She froze in her place, and started to focus more.

'There are some company coming here, I should get ready for them.'

She knew she couldn't hide, as the whole armory was lightened right now and she had no ability to turn off the lights. So, she decided to fight back, and she intended to do it in the most effective way.

She ran towards the place of pulse cannons. Although these cannons were meant to be for small cruisers, they weren't the heavy, and they could be stabilized on the ground easily without the need to fix them at all.

She got one of the cannons and moved it as fast as she could towards a suitable place, then she activated the ground firing mode of it. A thick tripod emerged from the cannon to stabilize it on the ground, with two handles appearing from the sides and a small blue screen appearing from the top.

She held the two handles, which were responsible for firing the cannon, and focused on the screen where she chose to select targets automatically.

There was no friend here; all were her enemies, so she didn't hesitate to activate that mode. All she had to do was to grip the handles tightly and let the cannons do the rest.

Aiming, guiding pulses, determining the degree of severity of the attacks, and even using pulses as a protective shield were all done by a smart tech system implemented in that cannon.

'Let's have some revenge, shall we?'

She muttered as she focused more on the sounds coming from the outside. Whoever coming here was moving with extra care, but the whole cruiser was empty so any sound no matter how small it was, was easily heard by her.

Just as the sounds came closer to the entrance of the armory, the lights of the whole armory shut down like a magic spell was used on them. Dora was startled as she left the handles from her surprise and turned around her with fear.

After a few moments of loss, she heard another voice besides her heartbeats, her enemies entered the armory and they were hitting the long racks inside it.

It hit her without any prior notice, as this sudden change had given her absolute protection, and made her enemies be disturbed. No matter who did this, it was done to help her, and she regained her focus and calm after realizing this truth.

'Thanks to whoever is watching over me.'

She thought to herself, as she recalled the previous opening of the armory locks without doing anything. She began to picture another scenario where she was still trapped outside the armory without any guns or place to hide. She would be captured or killed right now under that ambush.

She didn't know who helped her, but this wasn't the time for her to be distracted, so she smiled confidently as the voices of these soldiers hitting everything here was echoing louder and louder.

'I depend on you, my pulse cannon.'
