Rage War Incursion 2

He'd seen Private Lizzie Reynolds go down fighting when she'd taken on the first of the two Yautja. She'd been protecting a man and two young kids, and she'd got a few good shots in with her nano-rifle before the alien took her head.

"She died well," Mains said. "She died fighting."

"Sara?" Mains said.

She looked at him sidelong.

"You fought well. We all did. We lost two, we took down two. You know that's a good result against these bastards."

"I didn't realize we were keeping score."-pg.24 chpt.1

"Brian Willis died trying to lead a Yautja from a room where a couple of the indies were protecting one of your scientists and her family. If the Yautja had broken in and clocked the weapons, it would have killed them all. Probably quickly, because in the heat of the hunt they usually kill their prey as efficiently as possible. But we know that some of them can be sadistic. It might have been slow."-pg.31 chpt.1

"They're not like that. Their society isn't built or structured that way. They're essentially loners, drawing together for special ceremonies, or mating, or perhaps other reasons we don't know about yet, but they're not conquerors. There's no scheming in what they do. There's an honesty to them."

"That honesty killed over twenty station staff and two Excursionists at Southgate Station 12," Marshall said.-pg.60 chpt.2
