Doctor Cloutier ordered the Horathians to take painful genetic samples in case one of their subjects died in transport or while the ship was underway. The samples would be facilitated by blood and water samples to allow him to get a baseline for comparison later. It would hopefully allow him to spot problems and adjust as needed to keep them alive.

He handled the task himself initially, at least until he realized his patients were not going to be cooperative. He then stepped back and handed the job over to Blake and the other enlisted. They had their own more direct methods to get samples.

Brrfrak and Sputtersque had allowed themselves to be guided into improvised tanks made out of a cut cylinder. The edges were sharp so they were careful not to touch them. The water within was all that there was to keep them buoyant and therefore keep their own weight from crushing themselves.

They'd learned to tolerate the two-legs coming close to them. But when the two-legs had tried to cut pieces off of them they had reacted in fear.

The duo reacted with indignant squeals of pain as pieces were cut off and frozen. Bruno wielded an electric soldering iron to cauterize the wounds. Sputtersque saw her tentacle tip flop on the ground in horror. She stared at it, momentarily too shocked to react. It disgusted and amused the pirates, who danced around it. One picked it up and held it at arm's length as it flopped around. “Got a new playmate for you, Kelsea. This one is real flesh not plastic,” he taunted.

“Bite me Bruno. Or better yet, let me push you in there with our alien pals and let them do the job for me,” she growled.

Sputtersque endured pain like she never had before. White fire of nerve endings in pain in her phantom limb pummeled her consciousness, then numbing as her central nervous system adjusted and blocked the pain out.

Brrfrak became enraged at the sight of his mate being mutilated. His own helplessness to defend her heightened that rage beyond his ability to think rationally. He lashed out, thrashing in his improvised container before he thought of a way to strike back. He used one of his primary tentacles to slash at the pirates. They whooped and hollered, dancing out of the way and ducking at the swinging limb.

“Get that thing under control!”

“It's kraken and it's pissed. I think we hurt its mate or kid or something,” Kelsea said.

One of the two-legs got ripped by his hooks and Brrfrak drew the human in to kill him. His tentacle wrapped around the man's leg and worked its way up his body. The claws in the underside of the tentacle bit into the human, ripping and tearing at his coverall and flesh. The two leg screamed in pain, thrashing and screaming to get it off.
