---------snip---------
I can use this machine to tap into the Blue Dwarf's longrange sensors.  After all, they are designed to reach out miles intospace.  The sensors will relay a map of the ocean floor to this handheld device and I can use my memory to pin-point the exact location ofthe Enriam city.""Are you sure your memory is good enough to pin-point the city," Philsaid."Well,...maybe not pin-point; but pretty close.Within a close proximity.In the near area.Just a little shy from the parimeter.In the same ocean, at least."-------end snip-----------
 
"It will have to do Mr. Bell, its the best solution I've heard yet." Said the Captain, puffing his chest out as he made the command decision. Dirk started tapping away at the computer.
 
A fair distance away, on the Blue Dwarf, Temorary commanding officer Kayn Bestrom sat alone in the Drive-room twiddling his thumbs. The sensor computer across from where he was sitting suddenly flickered into life and a long string of data and login access codes scrolled across the monitor. As the machine whirred into life it started making a three dimensional map of the bottom of the ocean.
Kayn watched with interest as the computer did all of this by itself, as if an invisible person was sat at the computer. In actual fact it was being accessed and controlled by someone quite a lot further away.
The chirping sound of another computer made him twist his head around to the other side of the room. Another computer sprang to life, this time it was communications.
Kayn started to panic, he thought that somehow the Enirams had managed to acess  their computers by remote and were downloading all files- or maybe implanting a computer virus which would make all coffee machines give one sugar lump instead of two. The bastards.
 
'Sending sensor sweep results' said the computer screen display. An animated graphic showed that the file was being sent somewhere. Kayn tried to stop it by pressing all buttons at random.
"The captain's going to kill me if the Enirams mess up the computers, he likes two sugars..." whe whined, but reading a small piece of text at the bottom of the screen calmed his nerves.
"User logged on: Dirk Bell" it said.
Kayn sighed in relief, it was only Dirk accessing the computers, not those slimy fishmen. 
 
Back on the Pheonix
 
"I've recieved the sensor files!" Said Dirk, as the 3D image of the sea bottom rendered onto the screen. The Eniram base was shown by a flashing red blip.
"To the red blip!" yelled Captain Niples in his powerful, almost shakespearian voice.
Jay unblocked his ears. "I'm sat right here, there no need to yell!"
"I'm just making the point clear Mr. Chrysler."
"Yes sir."
"ONWARDS!"
"Yes, okay sir."
 
The Pheonix flew/dived/swam through the water until it got to the Eniram base. The city, made of a number of transparent bubbles shone out of the murky water like a lantern. As they neared, they could see the fishmen walking around inside.

"that is one BIG fish tank...are we in a japanese restaraunt?!" asked Jay flippantly.
"Find the nearest entrance," Niples ordered. "And take us inside, but careful- we dont want to be seen. We want to just get in, get our people uickly without anyone seeing us."
Jay flew the Pheonix to the nearest docking bubble.
Inside, millions of Eniram looked out of the window (which couldn't be helped because the entire outer wall was made of glass) and saw the ship approaching.....
 
(Over to someone to carry it on, we need to rescue our crewmembers but please nobody tamper with the Eniram missile. We'll need it as a plot device later.)
