~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
---- Snip ----
Peter now had nothing to do. He wondered about Alandra, and if he
would ever see her again, bringing a brief feeling of fear and guilt
to his stomach.
"Mk7 to Marwood. over" came the crackle of Mk7's unmistakable accent
over Peter's walkie talkie.
"Marwood here. Over" Peter spoke back
"commence pumping.over"
Peter gave the signal to Callum to turn on the pump. He just prayed
to God it worked.---- End Snip ----
By this time, Amber had realised the chain of events that would happen
and had sat down on the edge of the cavern, quietly hoping that
something would block the hose and save her and Jay from fading out of
existence as the old Jay and Amber were killed in the Thorax. There was
a large clunk and a small explosion and a fizzle. The pumping mechanism
had failed. Amber leapt up from the edge and took this as her
opportunity to make her point, again.
"If you do this you'll kill me and Jay! I know I don't mean much to this crew anymore but please think about Jay!" Amber said.
"Whats the live of a stupid Canarie and a fugitive when the whole of
the Earth is at stake." One of the crew from the Fools gold said. Amber
subdued the urge to stick a bullet in his head for insulting Jay and
calling the Canaries worthless.
"I have a plan. It will work if you give us time. Fix the pumping
system and wait till we get back. Give us time to save our future" Jay
quietly added after this "And Alota" He carried on louder again 
"Then you can flood this damned ship!" Jay said, after catching onto
what was happening and what would have happened exceptionally slow for
the Chief Navigation Officer. The crew of the Fools Gold grumbled. Jed
Stepped forwards.
"Now listen here ya yellow fancy pants dude. This here is my posse and
i'll not be havin the like of you ordering them about." Jed reached for
his six shooter. Amber nodded and the entire remaining collection of
Canaries locked their guns onto Jed.
"I don't give a damn about you or your crew right at this moment in
time. I'll quite happily let these guys fire." Amber swept her arm and
indicated the flock of Canaries. "If it means I can get Jay and Alota
out of this mess alive." Amber spat back at the cowboy. Several of the
Blue Dwarf crew were giggling at this point as Mk 7 who had been
fighting an inner battle had lost, and his scutter like instincts had
left him unable to do nothing but stare at Jed in awe.
"Are you Clint Eastwood?" He said amazed.
"Now then my metal buckaroo. I'm sure ain't that fella' but I sure can
handle cattle like him. The names Jed, Jed Calvert." He tipped his hat
and started having an in depth conversation with Mk 7 about 'the wild
west'. One of the Canaries took this time to throw a smoke grenade at
the crew of the Fools Gold.
"Leg it!" Jay yelled, and took off towards the crossing over the egg
hatchery. On the other side, he kept running and hoped that the rest of
the crew had the braincells to go after him. Amber appeared at his
side, leading her squad.
"I was out of line there I know, but I want to help correct what I did.
If I can help save Earth and Alota then maybe they wont hate me as
much... Maybe I wont end up in jail..." She looked away from Jay as
they slowed to a walk, far enough away from the Fools Gold and the
hatchery.
"I know. I dont blame you for her death." Jay said putting his hand on
his god daughters shoulder. "I feel the same way. I want to save Earth.
I was too late last time." There was a silence that fell over the group
as they marched on towards the bridge of the Thorax.<Tag>

OOC - We cant destroy the ship yet, you'll kill Amber and Jay. We have a plan, trust us.
