Seeing as how he was another enemy and might potentially join the group attacking her, Cerise showed no mercy against Jack Huxley once she got into weapons range.

"Four missiles inbound from the Stifur ship." Kasandra said, giving Avery a heads up.
As he had expected, Atlas had provided some cover fire for his temporary partner.
