But she had to protect herself.
The weapon was banned in every known colonized sector.
But she'd got it off one of them.
It was said to cause any being hit by it to experience ten lifetimes of unspeakable agony.
But these were bad people.
Morality, as well as every major religion she'd ever heard of, screamed in her head that this was too far.
But there was someone just outside the door.
There were other ways, other possible actions she could take and survive, surely, if she just thought.
But the door opened suddenly.
She fired.
