Claws That Catch
During their escape from the Dreen, the Hexosehr discovered a planet with ancient ruins, containing an inactive 'black box.' Sent out to make sure the Dreen don't get it and any other advanced technology, the Vorpal Blade II goes on this mission in a new ship with a new CO. The veterans of the Blade must teach the nuggets all the common sense they need to survive, as well as the Cheerick fighters they're training. On their arrival they discover a great secret in some "odd" encounters.

Famous quotes containing the words claws and/or catch:
“A: You are afraid of intimacy. B: I have seen your claws and sharp teeth.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“I know we’re not saints or virgins or lunatics; we know all the lust and lavatory jokes, and most of the dirty people; we can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences. But our innocence goes awfully deep, and our discreditable secret is that we don’t know anything at all, and our horrid inner secret is that we don’t care that we don’t.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
