Dunno. Early was too good of a villain to have only appear once.

I vote if we kill Niska then it's a group effort instead of the rest of us floating around in space with no direction or plan.
I see a big difference between killing our Big Damn Heros and our contacts like Badger and killing someone who has been established in our story to not just want to kill us, but to maim, insult and torture us.
You set this up, Wolf. It was your plot-line.
(And Joss pretty much said that unless you saw someone kicked into an engine, you can never be sure they aren't still out there.
"MAL!" Ertia watches as Simon rushes to Mal, checkng his vitals. For a moment it had seemed like she was watching the whole scene from somewhere up above.
She shakes her head. She'd had the strangest impression... "Look, so John and River went on a suicide run to kill Niska. What does that have to do with us?"
Simon stares at her in disbelief. "That's my SISTER we're talking about!"
"Oh. Yea. Forgot that part." Ertia sighs, "I'll be in my..."
Oh, yea, they'd converted her bunk into a prison cel for Wolf, who apparently was forgiven by the rest of the crew, since he was out and standing right there.
"I'll be..in..." Count to three... try again, "I'll be in Mal's bunk! HE's not using it!"

wolf" gorramnit it their gonna be killed!"
"zoe" river can look after her self, and i asume so can john."
*wolf sat down, thinking.*
wolf" we have to go after them."
zoe" what?"
wolf" we have to go after them, theyll be killed if we dont."
zoe" theres a large chance theyll be killed if we do."
wolf" yeah but if there going, im gonna help. im not ganna let some bastard just enslave me and lots of other normal people without making him pay. heads will role, if you guys wanna come thats fine, we'll need extra help, but if not, find some whare to go, lay low until this is over, but dont try to stop me."
*wolf walked away to his old, storage area bunk, and got ready for a trip.*

Zoe helped Simon and Jayne carry the captain back to the infirmary, then looked around her. "I'm not particularly keen on going back into that spacestation. The blind-dart trick won't work twice in a row. They'll be watching for it this time."
Walking over to the door, she pressed the Shipwide. "I want everyone who's still standing in the Galley, ma shong. We've got some decisions to make."
Simon glanced up from Mal, "Zoe, I'll do whatever it takes to save River. I've sacrificed everything for her once already, and I'll do it again."
He hesitated, glancing down at where Kaylee slept, then looking back to Zoe, his eyes steeled in sorrow, "She's all I have now."
Zoe didn't have words. She seldom needed them. She just nodded her head, pressed the com once more. "Galley, people. Now."
Ertia was in Mal's bunk, surrounded by the his familiar belongings. It gave her asense of comfort, when she couldn't hear his voice directing the ship, couldn't see him striding the corridors. It was enough to know that his essence was here. She fondled an old earth-that-was shps compass, ran a finger over the map on the wall. Mal had killed...how many? Hundereds?
Yet he was still capable of love. Still capable of caring for those around him. He was a killer, yes, but not a hardened one. He did what he had to do.
And so could she. When Zoe's summons came, Ertia didn't hesitate any longer. She climbed up the ladder, closed the hatch behind her, and made her way to the galley. "So, we're gonna do it? We're going after Niska?"

"Potential Suicide on our own. We were lucky last time." said Jayne even before Zoe had started. "Also, properly, knows were coming."
Zoe eyed him evily. Second time Jayne had been right today... "What do we have."
"Many injured, and quite tired, people." Simon said blankly, "not the most perfect army."
"Seen worse in the war." Choo said over his shoulder, rummaging in his bag of stuff...
"What we do have though is people who can think." Zoe said, trying to get everyones spirits up, "And kill, Their way out of any situation. We've done it many times before, and we'll properly have to do it again still."
"Make it sound like a cake walk." sneeered Jayne.
"Jayne. Shut up." said Wash, looking the bigger man in the eye.
"Ships damaged as well." said Book, the shepard come engineer.
"She'll take it." said Erita flatly, without looking up.
"Got plans of the place? Quite a big skyplex." Guy enquired.
"Had the scans the computer took last time," Wash said. "And our own memory's"
"Got plenty of ammo." Pain chipped in. "Just not enough guns."
"Some of us ARE living weapons." said Wolf coldly as he came up the stairs. He caught everyone's glances "sorry, needed a cup of sugar."
Zoe smilied a little. FINALLY it seemed to be going right.
"Oh, and THIS might help." Choo said as he put a small, battered out old silver box with some old wires coming out.
"a 'Magic Box'." Wash said, his eyes lighting up a little "lets you become another ship altogher. Ships Signal, of course."
Zoe was grinning. "We've got the goods, now we just need an attack plan..."
i think only three wheels will do us just fine :p

*Pain responded*
I ain't got a plan but I do have some explosives we could use on the station's power supply. I could knock it out and blow a rather large hole in process.
*Pain looked over at Ertia, saw the worried look in her face and said to her*
Don't worry babe the type of explosives I'll be usin' are of the remote detonatin' type. I promise not to blow myself up.

WWJD: What Would Jayne Do?

Choo, I'm only gonna say this once. You ROCK, my friend! You've got even ME spoiling for a fight. Excellent post! And I love your grasp of the characters! NICE!
"Power supply." Wash says quietly, "That could work."
Ertia lightly touched a finger to the silver box and looked at Choo in wonder. "Where were you when I was getting radiation poisoning stealing us a new Reg number? Never mind, don't answer that. I'm gonna see if I can't hack into that spacestation's database, find us an advantage in getting to that power-station."
"You do that." Zoe said crisply, "Pain, I want an inventory of all our ammo, all our guns, and our grenade status. Fly? You still got that rocket launcher?"
"Yah. 'Cause one rocket launcher's gonna be enough." Jayne growled, only to recieve a look from Fly that suggested that her rocket-launcher may find it's way up his pi gu if he didn't shut it.
Zoe turned to Choo with a half-smile, "You got anything else in your bag of tricks you haven't told us about?"

most honored Erita. Thank You. *bows deeply*
as Pain, Jayne, Wash and Book hurried off to do there jobs, Choo eyed his battered old bag: "Eye of Harmony, Robot DOg, beautiful Compani- What? sorry. Nope. Although a very good alibi to dock on the station would be useful. Changing the signal can only go so far. Heard rumours from others that Niska is a man of...extrodinary taste."
"Tell me about it," said Wash shouted back.
"What you got then trader?" asked Zoe.
"not much he'd be intersted in, but enough to buy us some more time i suppose." Choo said glumly.
"Times always important." said Zoe. Looking up she addressed the rest. "All got plenty of jobs before then." Going over to the control panel Zoe clicked the switch and announced: "Shepard, Wash, light her up!"
"Why do i get the feeling i'm going to need a bigger infirmary." Simon muttered...
