Though Eight was protecting the engineering area of the Babylon IV it did not mean he could not be helpful. He swiftly disabled the encryption protocol on the ship and routed the security feeds from all decks to his station. He could have asked the captain for the decryption algorithm but with Eight's unique knowledge it was faster to bypass it altogether.

Eight tracked four breaches in the Babylon's hull, once the grapplers where disabled certain sections could be isolated to prevent the entire ship from being vented. The Babylon's bulkheads were effective but not expensive, if the pirates started to cut through the metal it would not take them long and the ship could not afford to lose those right now. Eight lowered secondary bulkheads around the ship blocking off the main routes to engineering and the bridge. It would not hold them back for long but it would buy the other members of Starfire on the ship some time.

Even as he did this Eight tracked the locations of the various pirates making there way onto the ship. Krull had dutifully decided to slaughter the ones boarding from the breach on there deck however those weren't the only intruders on the ship. Eight patched himself into the Starfire comms that Krull and Johanna had.

"Krull, Johanna Hawkins, there are pirates approaching from the rear and aft sections of the ship. Two boarding parties comprising nine pirates each will reach your position in approximately seven minutes. Two doors down your corridor there is a storage compartment housing spar parts for the ship. They are contained in crates big enough to make decent cover. I suggest you deploy a number of them down both sides of the corridor. Krull, you're current tactic is effective but will not remain so. You're most prudent course of action is to throw a plasma grenade down the grappler shoot and run for cover." Eight looked at the advance of the pirates from other decks. "Five minutes."
