FTL, The fall of the Federation.

[shkkf]

The cat flew by in the suit before grabbing one of the outlaying wires to prevent himself from drifting away into the deep region of space behind him. The blast was strong enough to have blowna small portion of the weapons area clean off. It frustrated the feline to the extent of him grumbling when the other asked what he thought on it. How that anyone could find this type of damage minor was beyond him. One weapon had been obliterated and the encasement area for it wasn't in too good shape either.
 
"How about we first check if there aren't any possible breaches that could occur during a next jump? Mhhh?" As he arched a brow and stared at the other male. "Unless you want the ship to be ripped open during the FTL procedure, I do advice to first check for any weakened hull and strengthen that." As the cat began to search inbetween the rubble, before he suddenly pulled his paw away. "Aaah... Max get over here. This area is still warm, gathering energy." As Tio eyes began to widen. "We need to shut off the reactor for this!... Get to the ship quickly and inform them to keep everything at a low point. Only oxygen needs to be on. This lbuildup of energy is from the weapons compartment... because the alser is blown off, it didn't get any stop commands! The reactor has been feeding small amounts of energy each time. My screens didn't even notice it!.... If it keeps doing this, it'll melt through the hull!"

Sam sauntered out of the bathroom, still feeling very philosophical from the past 5-10 minutes...
Sitting himself in the comfortable Pilot's chair, he opened an uplink to the local beacon.
"Monitoring any incoming ships Sir."

[Oedipus Rex]

I nod, "Thank you pilot. Out of curiosity, how long before a ship got here do you think we would know about it?" I say, looking out the view port at the two men, concerned that if a pirate or stray rebel came past they might quickly turn into fodder.

[MrRazot]

"I'd say anything between 10 seconds to 5 minutes Sir"

Max looked over at Tio when he got close to where he was "You go, I'll see what I can do out here." Pulling himself through a small opening into the weapons damaged mounts. Quickly starting to work on the connecters feeding the energy into the damaged gun, talking quietly to himself without knowing if Tio was still there or not. "Stupid laser tech, what is it with these bugs and their laser tech. Why couldn't they just stick with less self-risking firepower." He thought for a moment "Then again, it is less risky than on one of the dreadnaughts."

[shkkf]

The cat did as asked and began to make his approach back to the ship, using the hull and anything that was of use, as a method of not drifting into space. It wasn't easy as some of the wires and various sharp components, were floating about. One wrong more ment a cut in the suit, or worse a breach in the helmet. That was something Tio feared for, but he sighed in relief when he got to the hatch. He turned it open, decompressing the chamber before entering it. The computer quickly adjusted the needed signs back to a normal level.
 
Once inside of the ship, did he quickly pull off the suit and stored it away. Regardless if it was easy to use... using clothing and fur in such a thing was terrible for his hygiene. "Next time I'm stripping down... Dangit!" Before he started running to report to the captain to shut the ship down. They didn't have time to spare. Even if Max was a genious, the energy needed to go somewhere.

[Oedipus Rex]

I turn around from the podium as the airlock doors hiss open behind me. I watch as the marine walks into the room. "Yes, what is it?"

[shkkf]

Tio panted, as he had tried to be as quickly as possible. No minute should be wasted as the expression on his face made that abundantly clear at least.

"The generator is still pumping energy to the weapon, sir." As the cat tried his best to explain the situation as the ship suddenly trembled a bit. "Short version?... Shut everything down except the most basic needs or ship goes boom!"

[Oedipus Rex]

I nod, "From what you say, we need to drain power from the reactor as fast as possible. Simply cutting off the power won't do it fast enough. The only option is to preform an FTL jump. The power from the jump will reset the reactor and immediately power down everything but the oxygen."

[shkkf]

The cat stared at the captain for a moment wondering why the male hadn't given any orders yet. But he then thought of warning his colleague outside.

"Uuh sir, with your permission I would like to warm Max before we do this... In the meantime we can warn the bridge to quickly take actions." As Tio put on his suit again, before saluting and moving to the hatch for outerspace again.

[serpington]

Max calmly kept working, still thinking about the other ships he had worked on. "I miss those old days." He then contacted Tio, when he finished, through the suits built in coms. "Hey, cat, tell the bug that I managed to divert the power to the working cannon. All he has to do is power it down or fire it. Either way make sure to let me know what he's doing before he does it. I'd hate to have him pop that one as well."

[shkkf]

Tio got the message when he wanted to move backside and tapped the headgear to get a better reception. He blinked at what the other said and hoped when he talked the other would hear it. "Test... Max, can you hear me?!" As the tanned cat was somewhat curious.

"The captain wants us to do an FTL jump to drain power from the weapons... What should I respond?!"

[serpington]

(i think this kind of died. DX)

[Oedipus Rex]

(Unfortunately so, it would seem.)

[shkkf]

Give it some time!... I am still active in this!
