He twists his face in agony and when the pain passes he stands. He starts repeating "Kill, kill." Meanwhile [[Marc Cory]] and [[Gordon Lowery]] are attempting to repair their ship. It isn't going very well. Lowery is wondering why Cory landed on the planet [[Kembel]] in the first place. They are also wondering about where Garvey has gone. | ||
Garvey is watching the two men working on the ship, still repeating "kill, kill." He keeps behind the ship to make sure that neither of the men sees him. Garvey raises his gun to fire at Lowery, but Cory shoots Garvey first. Garvey is in a lot of pain and then lies still. Cory pulls a long [[Varga plant|Varga thorn]] out from behind Garvey's ear. He tells Lowery to be careful because if he stung himself on it, he would have to kill him, too. | Garvey is watching the two men working on the ship, still repeating "kill, kill."
