Kukcoo had been walking to the ship's cafeteria when the she heard the voice over the intercom, it wasn't electronic like Isaac. Kukcoo's body froze in place as the grave voice-- the Captain-- spoke:

[i]"Yes, this is Captain Ahn Vora of the Exeralune speaking. Am I on? Yes? Well, I request everyone to man their battle stations on the Exeralune and prepare for lift-off. This is not a drill. I have reasonable suspicions that a planetary bombardment is in progress, likely from a single, or small group of enemy ships. I'll be arriving with all due haste, but please be ready by the time I arrive. All non-combat personnel, find your room mentioned in your data packet and wait. That is all."[/i]

The adrenaline hit her body hard. Kukcoo abandoned the search for the stowaway; the ship needed to be gone-- and the crew needed to inside. Her gravity boots sparked on, the red gems glowed with life and the boots began pulsating. Then she was levitating. She didn't have time to appreciate the miracle of flight granted by her well worn boots, she propelled herself through the corridors of the Exeralune, zipping through the hallways toward the entrance she had used not 5 minutes prior. Her mind explored possibilities-- Could this ship survive a direct hit? The warehouse certainly couldn't, it'd be a nice buffer, but it would only lessen the damage so much...

Isaac rounded the corner just as she did, and she had to swerve to get her boots to stop their jet propulsion. It was an inappropriate time, but as he walked towards her, she realized his eyes were a bright and intense goldenrod in color. She had just pegged him as human... That could wait though. He nodded toward her, "whats the plan?"

Her voice was calm, "Well--"

“Aye!” That obnoxious voice could only belong to a Korrvain, there was only one here, thankfully, “I dunno who’s in charge here, but until ye reveal yeself, this is what we’re doin’. These attackers may get here before the cap’ does, and if we all stuff into the ship we’ll be cornered. You bunch, get inside the ship and make sure the other crew is safe. The rest of us are gonna put up a defensive formation around the ship..."

Her demeanor became markedly more annoyed. She answered Isaac's question with haste, "I need you to get this ship ready to leave, and keep an eye on radar. When the blasts get too close you get us out of here, the Captain should be here soon, we leave the [i]second[/i] he steps on this ship. If you can't do that..." She observed the Korrvain, organizing his defense. Against what? Death rays from space? She turned to Isaac, "...Then you find someone who can, and relay the order from me!" She let out an audible sigh, "... I... need to go handle this." With that, she left Isaac to tend to the technical side of emergency lift-off preparations. 

"...Any objections?” was all Kukcoo could hear as made her way down the hallway toward a still open entrance to the ship. [i]Yes, quite a few, actually.[/i]

Kukcoo emerged into the warehouse like an asteroid belt murderbeast, "What the hell are you all doing!? You heard Captain's orders! We're preparing for an emergency lift-off, not fighting insurgents!" Her voice boomed through the warehouse, It had the scolding of an angry mother combined with the fear inducing quality of an angry comet wolf. Her small body levitated over an entrance to the ship and she continued, "Everyone. In the Exeralune-- [i][b]NOW.[/i][/b] Or we [i]will[/i] be leaving without you."

That last bit got their attention. The various security personnel who had decided to follow the Korrvain's orders made their way into the ship, she'd need to remember to reprimand them all later-- She wanted to reprimand the Korrvain now-- But her desire to get everyone off the planet safely was (however slightly) stronger than her prejudice toward the Korrvain.
