Jay was stood in the shuttle bay, clutching a clipboard in one hand, and a pen in the other, surveying the damage, he gazed over the clipboard, and ran his fingers through his hair, sighing deeply.
"Smeg..." he muttered "It's gonna take atr least 6 months to get this place back up and running, and thats provided we can get to a starbase to do it!" he said to Dean, "Otherwise its gonna be closer to  a year and a half!"
"What?! How can it take that long?!"
Jay shook his head, Dean although being a navigation officer failed miserably in having any spatial awareness whatsoever. "Well Dean, the nav deck is the biggest department on the ship! It extends 4 decks around the centre of the ship! The widest part!"
"But the shuttle-bays only take up a section of the outer hull..."
"Yes, but its not just the shuttle-bay's, its the maintenance bays, the stellar cartography and astrometrics labs, the planetary research labs and not to mention the games room!"
"THE GAMES ROOMS TRASHED?!"
"fraid so.."
"BUT...but....but,....I never got to finish my game with Efof!"
"Pool?!"
"No...Hungry Hungry Hippos..." Dean said trailing off.
Jay shook his head, as he had become quite good at doing these last few days. "I was the green hippo you know..." Dean added.
"Really...fantastic....look Dean, all the navigation equipment is trashed, were gonna have to work out where the nearest starbase is by using the stars and a map...gonna take us ages to figure it out so I suggest we do it in the morning and go and get a well deserved drink now."
"One problem.."
"Which is?!"
"Parrotts is gone..."
"Pilots lounge?!"
"gone"
"The Wetherspoons on the Promenade?!"
"gone"
"The Supernova night club?!"
"gone"
"Smeg....even the Spearmint Rhino?!"
"No thats still there...but youre married to Alota.."
Jay looked at the ground then muttered F@#K! as he realised Alota would murder him for going to a strip joint.
"Guess theres only thing for it then...." Jay said 
"What?!"
"We bundle back to mine for a session...."
"Sure Alota wont mind?!"
"No...but I'll face the consequences in the morning!"
It was now that Phil burst in. "Jay, set a course for these coordinates!"
"Please'd be nice...."
"Puh-Leeeeaasse?!"! POhil said sarcasm dripping from his voice
"What is it anyway? Priority is getting us to a starbase for repairs.."
"I'm sure we can get repairs done here, they call it, Legion"

The BD was back under crew control..
Phil was moping though...they made him give back the deathstar...Even MP was being mysterious about something he had found...
 
And he WAS STILL trapped in the body of an 8 year old.
 
This had gone on long enough.
 
It was time to call in some favours...
 
**on the bridge**
 
Alota was discussing with Niples something about a gift for the GELFS who had helped them, when Phil came in.
 
"Whats up Phil...?" Asked Alota
 
"I'm FED UP being like this...I wanna go back to normal.."
 
"What a pscoyatic madman who not only tried to kill my freind and your wife but made a whole in the space time continuium that almost destroyed creation?" Said the captain with a hint of evilness on her face?
 
"Well erm.."
 
"Or the one who thought he was satan?" joined in Nipples..
 
"Look...if i dont get help...then...I'm telling Olga where YOU are, " hesaid pointing to Nipples
 
"And I'm telling Jay you let MP use his toilet after a curry session."
 
There was a stunned pause.
 
"So any ideas on how to get me back to normal?"
 
Holly, of all things, pipped up.
 
"Ere, dude...Theres allways the Legion.."
 
"Holly, I'm not a vetren of the world wars...It's a fine estabishment, but i dont think THEY can help me..."
 
"Naaahh...The legio  station...you not heard of it? They have access to all the top brains in the space corp plus they have repair faciltys that are..well...top notch.."
 
"Why have we not heard of it before?" asked the captain.
 
"Because they only tell the most qualified AI's and genius...And i noticed it on one of you notepads a while ago Phil..."
 
"Bugger...forgot about that..."
