As Suak circled the creature and it hesitated for a few precious seconds, Klane got slowly and painfully to his feet and prepared to face death standing. Then he saw Lucalle running towards him with the klane! "Over here! Quickly!", he called raising his hand and she threw it towards him, spinning end over end. With a desperate snatch he plucked it out of the air and grasped the hilt firmly. Fresh hope flooded through him as he felt the familiar touch of the geared controls, registering firmly and clicking solidly into place beneath his fingers. The klane hummed in anticipation of action. He turned to face the creature, still feeling the after effects of its weapon but with a grim determination to settle the score.
