Yiithren, thinking quickly, gave orders for evasive maneuvers and had Kurqruik send word to the gunners to begin engaging the ships closest to them. "Shields at 90% sir." Kurqruik called out, briefly taking her attention off of the interior communications console. "Continue evading and get me Strevrols." Yiithren said, watching bright flashes illuminate the darkness around them before dying out. "Yes sir." His first mate replied, turning back to the console. "Strevrols? The captain wishes to speak to you." "I'm a bit busy making sure our engines keep running here." He said, almost sounding annoyed. "But I suppose I can spare a few moments for idle chit-chat." Kurqruik nodded, turning round to face Yiithren. "Sir?" Yiithren turns to face her, nodding slightly as he shuffles over to the console. "Thank you, I'll take it from here." "Strevrols?" He asks, leaning in somewhat. "I need you to do something for me." "What exactly?" Strevrols asked. "Do you think you could engage a jump?" The captain of the Va asked, casting a glance over to the ships viewport as another blast was deflected by its shields. "A jump? Why? And where? If you hadn't noticed we're in the middle of a combat zone right now. There isn't exactly time for me to set up the proper coordinates if escape is the goal..." "Don't worry, we're not going far. Just to the interior of that ships shields we punched a hole through. We can use what's left of it's hull and shields as a temporary barrier so long as we stay in its blind spots. Our guns never completely annihilated it remember?" Yiithren explained as the craft lurched slightly, its artificial gravity generator quickly compensating for the sudden movement. "Ah, clever. Very clever. Alright, I'll get the drive ready and the coordinates primed. Just make sure our pilots keep us in one piece long enough for me get it done." Strevrols replied, cutting communications a few seconds later. Yiithren turned and moved back to the viewport, giving orders for the ships pilots to continue evading enemy fire as the Psi Jump Drive was primed for use. Resuming his place at the front of the craft. "This might just be the craziest thing you've done." Kurqruik remarked. Yiithren didn't respond. He simply clasped his tentacles behind his back and stared out into the warzone beyond their small craft, waiting for jump confirmation. It took a few minutes, but Strevrols voice eventually came through the bridges interior com system. "All systems green. Jump drive is ready for use." Yiithrne made a small burbling sound, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Good." He said, his voice echoing throughout the room. "Engage jump drive in three... two... one... mark." A low hum spread throughout the Va as it was enveloped in an aura of violet tinged lightning, before it suddenly jumped, appearing as though it had always been in its current location. That being beneath what remained of the Venetor they had assaulted earlier. Finding a moment to breath, Yiithren and crew took this rare moment of peace to plan out their next angle of attack.
