Description

Their minion spy destroyed, the alien monsters turned to face their attacker and the women of the Racks View, had they the strength, looked up to see their rescuer.  Alien and human alike, however, could only be stunned by what they saw.

It was Margo!

It was Margo many times over.  The young woman stood on the cargo bay landing flanked on either side by exact duplicates of herself.  Each a perfect copy the multiple-Margos stood nude, but Margo herself was wearing one of the ship's armored vacc suits, what the crew would wear for working among asteroids.  Likewise in the girl's hand was mining drill.  Used for boring core samples, it's plasma beam could make short work of anything but the strongest alloys... as Margo had just demonstrated to dramatic effect.

It was a surreal tableau.  Like gunfighters facing off, Margo stood there flanked by mirrors of herself, each with a 'you are so going to get your ass kicked' look on her face, while the alien beasts crouched and growled in equal display.  One reached down and grabbed Claire by the arm, making her yelp with pain as if to challenge Margo with hostages.  The young girl grimaced back aiming the cutter right at the monster.

"It's your own fault you were stupid enough to leave me alone in a machine that makes duplicates," she said, not caring if they understood her or not, "but if you don't let her go right now I'm going to show you just how stupid you really are!"  The creature hissed and looked at it's companions, weighing the situation.  Contemptuously, it released it's grip and Clair fell back to the floor.  Margo made motions to her crewmates.  Her copies did so likewise as she covered the aliens with her weapon.

"They're not going to hurt you any more." Margo said.  "Come here.  I've got you."  Her multiple twins gave similar words of encouragement.  "It's ok."  "Nice and slow."  "We'll protect you."  "You're safe now."  Cautious and bewildered, the women moved away from the monsters toward Margo and her Margo army.  Like navigating a minefield, Claire and Khia kept glancing at the creatures, waiting for them to strike if they made a wrong move.  Denise had seen the worst of it, being ravished by two monsters at once so they moved to her and helped her slide and crawl to safety.  As soon as the three women were out of reach of the alien invaders, a pair of the Margo duplicates moved forward, acting as shields between them.  The other copies moved down and helped Claire, Denise, and Khia back further and out of harms way.   Safe behind the veritable wall of Margos the three women clung to each other for safety as they watched things unfold.

"This was a lovely little world and we weren't looking for trouble." said Margo.  "You could have left us alone and we would have left you alone.  Who knows, we might have even been able to meet peacefully, but no, you had to get all 'alien monster' at us.  You did things.  Terrible things, and you're going to learn that no matter how badass you think you are, there are times when you are way over your head."  Margo didn't care if they understood her or not.  She was mainly saying it for the benefit of her crewmates and for herself.  What had happened to them was a nightmare and it was time to wake up.   She glanced back and forth at her duplicates who mimicked the hard glare of retribution on their faces as hers.

"Girls," Margo said calmly.  "Sic 'em."
