[indent][b][h2]~FARRRR****~[/h2][/b][/indent] It all started with an extremely loud, sudden and unapologetic curse. Arex had been tinkering away for quite some time before the violent yell exploded from his room. However it wasn't the only explosion that would be coming from his small little room. There was a short moment of still silence. The lights flickered and dimmed as time itself slowed to an expectant pause of anticipation and fear. Fully aware of the calm that came before the chaotic storm. An instant later a deep thundering treble rolled violently through the entire ship causing an earth quake of vibrations and unstable shaking. The explosion was powerfully overwhelming, a deep deafening roar that rode on a fierce shockwave of displaced air that tore through every inch of the ship. It bellowed down every hallway with a deafening destructive concussive force. Before it was over the shrill pitched screams of fire alarms blared to life along with the signature flashing coloured warning lights. Certain locations of the ship reacted with a shower of water while others feared a hull breach and began closing down locking in everything within air tight. The smell of smoke filled the air and rubbish and debris covered the ground. The safer electrical supplies had shut off while others exploded in an arc of constantly zapping electricity. Lights everywhere had faded if not having gone out completely, throwing the ship into a shadowy darkness. Emergency life support became available as small exit lights lit up the ground. An array of automatic alarms, warnings and updates blared over the PA repetitively, sometimes contradicting one another. The artificial gravity wavered falling back to a simpler more energy efficient mode. [hr] Arex stood in the hallway staring dumbfoundedly through the bent twisted metal of his once former doorway as water patted down over his body slowly soaking his clothes. Despite soot covering his face and most his body Arex was in surprisingly good condition considering. His hair was a bit frazzled and his eyes bore the bloodshot look he got when using his Sh'kwarr but despite that all was well considering his expected proximity to the blast. (Obviously the burst eardrums were not visible beside the small trickle of blood that ran from them.) Arex's room had not fared so well. If a room it could be recognised as. Flames cindered on inflammable objects. The soft red glow of searing metal lit the heavy clouds of smoke occasionally struck by the light blue flash of arcing electricity. Every surface and wall was cracked and patching, just threatening to give way at any moment. Arex was lost for thoughts or actions. He simply stood there.
