*ACTION* Out of the frying pan, into the SIDE OF A MASSIVE BLOODY SP

The airlock hissed open, three space-suit clad figures stepped out, into the mid-section of the `command' Starbug and the door hissed shut again.
Katrina whisked off her helmet and limped over to Jay.
"What happened to you?" Jay asked
"SHE!" snapped Katrina, pointing viciously at Cass, "Speared me in the ass!"
"Really..?" Jay said…"What with?..." a confused look on his face he whispered the next part "and why do you let her do something you've always categorically refused to let me do?"
"What?" Katrina said, an indignant look on her face "No! With a harpoon! Look!"
She turned around and poked her rear out, showing Jay the harpoon, poking out of the seat of her space suit, a few inches of cable dangling off the end down to the point where it had been cut.
"huh." Jay said "Look at that…" he grabbed the harpoon and yanked it out, making Katrina cry out in pain.
"What did you do THAT for?" she snapped, whirling around to face Jay again.
"Well I can put it back in if you'd like…." replied Jay.
"Hrmph.." Katrina said, storming off and folding her arms, she would have sat down to do this but was still a bit sore.
Jay was in trouble, he could tell, but after being married to Alota for several years, living with and angry Katrina was a walk in the park.
"So.." he said, walking over to Cass and Micky "I won't ask about the harpooning accident just now…."
"IT WAS NO ACCIDENT!!" Katrina squeaked from her position on the other side of the cabin.
"Fine! Whatever honey! We just have more important things to worry about for now!" Jay snapped in response. "Sorry…she's not normally like this.." he said, turning back to Cass and Micky. "How did the mission go?"
"Well, unless you count the senior officer drifting off into space, and getting harpooned….I'd say it was a success!" Cassandra said .."Um..Sir.."
"Yeah!" said Micky "The comms array from the Eagle is modified, it will emit an EMP pulse that should take out a small section of the Blue Dwarf's external sensors long enough to get Mk.10 and Rosette inside.."
"Good work, all three of you" Jay replied, then turned back to the monitors.
"Doc, is the ointment ready?"
"Erm…" *thwack* "Yes…yes just about!" Keto replied, *thwack* *crash*
"What's going on over there?"
"Nothing!" replied the Doctor "Nothing at all! One of my attempts to create the luck-ointment just happened to animate a piece of lab-furniture that's now trying to strangle Mr Niples, nothing to worry about!"
"…just…get it under control…" Jay said, an eyebrow raised. He turned to another monitor.
"Mk.10, Rosette, get ready, I'll be over to your Starbug in the Space Eagle in the next few minutes..Rosette, you need to suit up…"
Later
The Space Eagle rocketed toward the Blue Dwarf, Mk.10 and Rosette trailing behind it on a high-tension wire. Jay had already told them that they wouldn't have time to dock, but he hadn't mentioned that they'd be water-skiing in open space, behind a powerful space fighter.
"Hold on!" Jay's voice came over the radio.
"We can't do much else!" Rosette replied
"I'm getting within the Dwarf's weapons range!" Jay continued "I'm not quite close enough to fire the EM-pulse though…Mark, active your EMP-shielding".
The small robot did as ordered and activated a device that shielded him from EMP pulses, but wondered if it was necessary when he saw the unmistakeable shape of pulse cannon fire heading toward them from the Blue Dwarf's hull.
Jay rolled the craft sharply evading the weapons fire, and Rosette and Mk.10 were sent spinning behind on their cable.
"Ok…I'm firing the EMP ….now!" Jay said, and sure enough, as he did so, the cannons stopped firing. The Eagle rocketed toward the Blue Dwarf without slowing, and getting within a few metres of the hull, Jay suddenly banked upwards. "Cutting the cable now.." he said "Ready your thrusters.."
"Ok..I..AAAGH!" Rosette said as the cable was suddenly detached from the Space Eagle, and she and Mk.10 found themselves drifiting very quickly, toward the mothership's hull. They fired their retro rockets, and touched down gently on the hull just as the cannons came back online and fired after Jay once more, and the Space Eagle vanished off into the distance, tailed by pulse cannon fire that had no hope in smeg of making contact.
Mk.10 and Rosette were no safely inside the external grid however…all they had to do now, was get inside……
