Connor dived for the closest fire extinguisher as another console in the cockpit exploded into a cloud of smoke and fire. "Where the hell is Lily?" He shouted at Shaun "and why aren't you in the engine room?". Shaun leant against the doorframe of the cockpit and looked Connor up and down, he was short and quite large, he had long black hair that was clearly never combed " Well I would go and fix them but there is no oxygen because someone opened a route to the airlock to put out the fires" he spat back at him. "Ah, that would be my fault, well if you go and find Lily, she can fix the door system and I can close the airlock" said Connor, replacing one of the screens in the cockpit, more forcefully than was really necessary.

"why me?" Shaun had never been the sporty type, always opting for being inside on a computer rather than football. But as he turned to sprint off to find the young engineer, the wall to his left exploded leaving a gaping hole into the abyss of space. Shaun was nowhere to be seen. Not down the corridor. Not floating away into the emptiness. Except, it wasn't empty. Oh no, the once cloaked ship that had ambushed the smaller human ship was now in full view. And it was taking aim once again. Their ships shield was barely holding, just enough to keep the oxygen from completely escaping the wreckage. However, it was still being depleted, the only conscious person on the ship was now Connor. Watching as the pirates ship took aim and he slipped into an unconscious state like his crew.

He only just missed the flash of light between himself and the pirates and a federation ship jumped directly in front of the pirates attacks, harmlessly disintegrating on the fully powered shields.
