"Don't you think," Starbuck had suggested as the fighter lifted off, "that we ought to wait for your friends?"

"What friends?" said Croad.

"Yauk can take care of himself," the lean enforcer said as he worked the controls of the ship. "He'll run Robber to the ground and haul her in."

"I don't mind going back and waiting," said the lieutenant amiably. "Not at all."

"Save it," advised Croad.

"A trial!" Croad said. "A trial!"
