Realizing what she had done, she turned on the Lance and got 'stabby' according to Knoxx. Athena, in the midst of the confusion, killed Jess by mistake. However, in an attempt to keep Athena in the corps, the Crimson Lance tricked her by ordering a total annihilation on the village where Jess lived. She mentioned to Knoxx that once she found Jess, both of them would leave Pandora. Athena, however, had a different objective while on Pandora: searching for her long lost sister, Jess. Though General Knoxx was initially against the idea, he later approved of the assassins after seeing their work at cleaning up T-Bone Junction.
At some point, during the Crimson Lance's invasion of Pandora, Athena and her fellow assassins were sent to the planet to help clear out any obstacles.
