Ammonite Stars (Omnibus): Ammonite Galaxy #4-5
“No words were wanted or needed. The day had broken sometime previously, so together, with white, stunned faces, they began to set up the two big missiles they had brought down. Diva did lean over to Grace once, but it was only to help her with a particularly difficult catch, which the Sellite girl’s own hands had been unable to unfasten. Their eyes, deadened by the shock, met. Both girls were in agonizing pain from the task they had been set, both horribly aware that there could be no going bac...k.
