*ACTION* "I'll F@#$ING KILL'EM!"

Who:- Jay, Alota, Tara..Phil in a large sack
Where:- Promenade
When:- During the pirate attack.
"WE GOT WHAT WE BE COMING HERE FOR LADS!" shouted Captain Fook across the
promenade, "LETS BE GETTING OUT OF HERE!!"
"Everyone!" shouted Alota "Dont let them get away without getting as much
loot as you can back from them!"
"And Phil!" Tara pointed out.
"Oh yeah...Phil as well I suppose"
Jay leapt to his feet and jumped the Pirates that were carrying the sack
containg the 'chief of security' AKA the man who makes everyone else fight
his battles while he hides in a cupboard, stunned, the Pirates dropped Phil
"OWOWOW!" came Phils muffled voice from within the sack "I bit my tongue!"
He slowly crawled out of the sack, getting his legs tangled in the material,
the Pirate turned to attack Jay when Fook ordered him to leave it, and get
back to the boarding tube.
"WE'LL BE SEEING YOU NOW MATES!" he said, grinning widely, and ignoring Kara
and Harris on they're 'date'
"BOsun!" he screeched "Throw the explosives!!"
One of the pirates tossed a high-yield explosive pack into Parrots, across
the ship, the other boarding points also found themselves welcoming a new
exploding resident.
The pirates then ran back into the umbilical, and sealed the airlock.
Phil, who had just crawled out his sack entirley, but was still flapping
around the floor caught a glimpse of the bomb's timer, which read "00:00:03"
"Ah..." he said "EVERYBODY GET THE HELL OUT!!!"
Most of Parrot's occupants moved quickly enough to escape the barin time to
witness its fascia blasted out into the promenade, scattering debris across
the entire deck, leaving Parrots a smouldering carcass of the bar it once
was.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!" Jay and Phil
screamed in unison
"Guess we better call a meeting..." said Alota
***** An hour later *****
Who:- Department Heads
Where:- Conference Room
When:- the same time as "***** An hour later *****"
"Damage?" Alota asked
Holly loomed into the screen. "Its not good"
The room was silent for a few minutes before Alota finally said "Well
concluded Hol!" Holly looked pleased with himself "But I kinda want to know
how bad it is!"
"Very"
"WHAT IS THE DAMAGE HOLLY!!!"
"Ohhhhh....why didnt you say that?!" He paused for a moment, while he found
the file "The Drive Room, Medi-Bay, Starboard shuttle bay, Parrots,
Engineering, Wormhole Drive room, Stellar Cartography, 6 of the starboard
cargo bays, Psych offices, several crew quarters and the launderette haave
been blown to pieces by the Pirates bombs. 20 of our shuttles are missing,
destroyed or heavily damaged, Life support is out in 36% of the ship, most
of our weapons, valuables, fuel and food has been plundered, 97% of the
ships computer network has been destroyed in fights, and the little bobble
thing on the antenna to find the ship in car pakrrs has been nicked."
Alota sat down and held her head in her hands.
"Oh" said Holly "My systems are buggered too..I dunno if i'm coming or
going!"
"Well thank god you're not affected" Phil commented
"Jay" Alota asked "how far are we from the nearest Space Corp. Station?"
"Well..theres a supply depot about 2 light years from here"
"Set a course"
"Ok...but with the engines down and wormhole drive offline its gonna take
us....oh about a million years...."
"Ok.." said Alota "Tara, Keto's not here, so you're gonna need to manage the
medi-bay, you're gonna have a lot of wounded., Jay find a planet ANY
inhabited planet where we might get some help, Zodar get the repiars
underwhere, I want round-the-clock maintenance..."
"Ok" said Zodar interuppting "But even with the entire engineering team
working 24-7 its gonna take me a good month to get the ship up to scratch"
"Take people from other departments if you have to! If they can use a
screwdriver they're yours repairs are priority!, Doctor Cerebrum, I';d like
you to offer counselling sessions to anyone who needs them after that I'm
sure there will be more than a few people in need of help."
"Most of the crew need counselling at any given time!" said Jay "But not
even Dean's nuts enough to go see HIM!"
"Shuttit Jay!" said Alota "You knwo what you have to do people!"
Everyone got up and left, except Jay, who grabbed Phil by the arm, gesturing
for him to wait.
"Whats up Jay?!" Alota asked her husband
"I didn't want to say in front of everyone else, but with engines down I
can't change course"
"I know that" Alota said "I meant for you to take shuttles to any planets
you can find"
"No...my point is, were drifting into Hymenoptera space, and theres nothing
I can do about it......."
