Welcome to Gaia! ::

He was just landing in the docking bay when Steven heard Darian, "Thank you."

Then he looked over at Green 2's ship and saw it swarming with medical technicians. Then his own cockpit opened up, and Steven blinked at the bright lights of the docking bay. "Are you all right Sir?" he heard someone say. He looked over and saw a young looking girl with pitch black hair along with two other medical technicians standing on the wing looking at him.

He smiled a bit and laughed, but stop when his head started to throb again. "I must be quite the sight huh?" he joked to the technicians who were helping him out of the cockpit of the fighter. He looked at the girl again, "Did I actually die out there, because I think I just saw me an angel."

The captain thought over this plan for a bit, and came to a conclusion "Either way, we need to get rid of those dragoons, I say, since we know of their ambush, we can negate their advantage, Plus these new baby's will help us out quite a bit." He said, patting the rifle " I'll take my squad around and create a distraction while you sneak into engineering and take it over." He smirked And headed towards the door "Kurohime, Contact me when you're ready, youll be able to hear our shots, and so will they, the drathinians inside will be more than distracted enough for you guys to get in. Alpha squad! Move out!" he called for his squad and headed a bit down the corridor.

Just before the captain left, "Don't forget to switch from the rifles when you go into engineering." Kurohime said.
Once they were gone she turned to the rest, "Right, scan the conduit for life and hazards, they could have laid traps."
After a minute: "Scans show the way is clear, I don't think they expected us to come this way."

"Ok, put your gas masks on and set the armour for dealing with chamical and bio hazards as well as gunfire, we're going to enter a highly dangerous area, I won't take any chances."
Soon the whole team was ready, and waiting by the conduit hatch.

"Ok, I'll communicate to the captain when everyone is in position by a different entrance. When you hear the fight start, move in, our aim is to make sure the door doesn't open, hopefully they'll initiate a full lock down and not go to help, now move out."
The team mived quickly through the conduit, Kurohime took the entrance nearest the door, paired with a Marine, the other Engineers were at different entrances.
"Ok, Everyone in position?"
Soon all confirmations were in
"Good, when we go in, Marines go in first, Engineers sharpshoot from the conduit entrance with the EV-47." she ordered
She then switched to a different encypted channel,
"Captian, we're ready and waiting on you, just don't die out there please."

Soon they could hear gunshots, and panic hit the Drathonian Engineers, they began to hit buttons and a massive bulkhead closed over the door.
Perfect! was all Kurohime could think
"Right," she commed her team, "Theres a lot of lizards down there which need teaching a lesson, lets do this!"
At once the hatches were opened, the Marines jumped out shooting or slashing with the laser-edged swords and the Engineers sniped at the drathonians not involved in close combat.
Due to the lack of guards inside the take over was swift and brutal.

"Ok," Kurohime said stepping out of the conduit,
"While our first aim is to disrupt inter-ship communications, our guys need help. Marines are to put the conduit hatches back and stand guard, we don't want them pulling what we pulled.
Abul, hack their systems, so far they've kept automated security off, make it so it hits Drathonians, not our lot, then turn it on and max accuracy. Singh, Jones, you should be able to activate all the bulkheads from that panel there, use the security cameras and ships plans to seal of any lizard patrols and the armoury, but if theres terrans in the area leave it. Davidson, mess up their comm systems, make it impossible to communicate with each other, Maire and I will work on cutting power to all the external weapons, but we'll keep the shields up for now, once we've got the ship totally under our control, then we'll work on the main mission."
"Done!" Abul said, "Wasn't too hard."
"Good, now help myself and Marie."
"Hey Kurohime," Jones asked, "What about the lizards we've sealed off that are on the outer part of the ship?" Kurohime knew what Jones wanted to do.
"They've spaced Terran crews before, while I won't be able to take the decision on the rest, make sure no terrans are in those areas, then make those lizards take a walk."
"Got it."
"Ok, power to external weapons is being cut. That should help the guys in the big battle." Abul said
"I put a little tune on their comm systems, nails down chalk board, continuous headache for the lizards." Davidson grinned.

"Good," Kurohime suddenly heard an increace in gunfire from outside,
"Get me those camera shots!" when she saw them she smiled, "Looks like the automated security trick worked, and that should be happening all over the ship. Ok, Davidson, give me a hand with the inter-ship communications, I want to borrow that tune, the rest of you, keep things status quo, only once you're certain the captain has won, and use the cameras for that, can you open up the doors. Singh and Jones, keep checking for lizards you can seal off, if our guys need to go through let them, just send them a message about the lizards on the other side."

Then she and Davidson went to the communications panel in Engineering, she took one look at the console and swore violently
"Seems the only way we can access what we need to access is from the bridge, when the captain is done, we'll go with his team, your job is to make it as easy as possible for us to get there."

Tom grunted at the female engineer's command, moving over to the conduit, having a look inside, then pulling shut the door. He then set to work doing what he could about the mild degree of gore spattered on his uniform, the sword dangling loosely in his right hand.

"We're gonna be here a while, aren't we?" he asked, examining his sleeve.

"Open the doors!" Kurohime said,
The marine sqaud ran in, pulling wounded, "Right, all people with medical training get these soliders patched up as best you can." she shouted
Once all the sqaud was inside, the door was shut and sealed again.
"We have a problem captain, they've removed access to external communications from engineering, we'll need to take over the bridge."

"Wait Kurohime, I just got past their system security, we've cut the bridge off!" Davidson said, "The protocal on this class of ship is that if the Bridge is cut off from the communications system, Engineering gets control of everything, including external ship communications.
"On second thoughts, we just need a minute here." she said to the captain before running to the console
"Good work Davidson." she said typing in code after code.
Soon she could hear orders being shouted in Drathonian,

"Up yours Lizard scum!" she hissed as she inputted the final code, sending an aweful sound onto all the comms in the Drathonian fleet, overriding any messages on all drathonian channels, public or private.
"That should slow them down a bit." she smiled
"We've got the shields on this ship still up, just in case they figure out what happened, and at this point in time I have to advise staying here, mainly because if we lose Engineering, they can reverse what we've done, but only from here, so we need all the support we can get." she stopped for a second
"And now the bridge is cut off, and sealed off with the bulkheads, we have total control of the ship from here, though I wouldn't recommend joining the battle from here, we'd be blown to bits in no time. However to stop ourselves getting bored, we have injured to attend to, even if it is tying bandages."

Anita scribbled down Steven's name onto her sheet. "I'll be the judge of whether you just need a bandage or not," she glanced over at the injured pilot he pointed too, "Several of his controls were damaged and shrapnel got flung at him. His face is scratched up but the only thing I would worry about is the fact that he has several pieces of shrapnel embedded in his biceps. Back to you, how exactly did you get you injury? Where you bludgeoned at all or is it a laceration?" She spoke quickly, professionally, and to the point.

"I assure you our medical staff is more than prepared to take out a couple pieces of metal and repair some muscles. He'll be up, on your squad, and killing again in no time. I just need to check to see if you have a concussion. Just answer a couple questions for me. What is the name of the type of ship you pilot? What is the name of the ship you're currently on? What year is it?" Anita spewed out a constant stream of pointless questions. She paused after each question for a couple seconds and then moved on to the next one whether Steven answered or not.

Suddenly, in the middle of a question, she said "Catch," and quickly tossed a ball she had been sneaking out of her pocket while distracting Steven with her questions.
