Alex could see Yaron and Varrik's frustration and suspicion, and he wasn't really expecting them to fall for the trap so easily.
He had underestimated Yaron's caution and prowess, as Varrik would have most definitely just rushed in as soon as he saw his dead comrade on the ground.
With a new plan forming in his mind, Alex knew he had to act fast.
Waiting for them to flush him out of the vents would only give them the advantage.
He decided to take the initiative and confront them head-on. He prepared himself, taking a deep breath to steady his nerves.
Bang!
With a sudden burst of movement, Alex kicked out the vent cover and dropped down into the hallway, landing with a crash just in front of the dead Kree.
The noise created by the unexpected entrance of Alex startled Yaron and Varrik, their weapons immediately raised as they saw the figure standing before them.
Captain Yaron's eyes narrowed as he took in the sight of Alex.
