[center][h2]Alexander Tain[/h2][/center] Alexander, before all the commotion, started with pirates and cables. He was busy with what he did in his spare time. Working at his personal computer trying to put Eva back together. He has been making progress lately, but it is still a laborious procedure. Most would abandon it but not Alex. Not him. All he needs is time, or so he says. Either way, it is a careful procedure as he does not want the pieces of the difficult puzzle that is Eva to be even more fragmented or worse. Then the sudden rocking of the ship messed with him and almost caused him to make a mistake that would have set him back considerably. Fear gripped him that he almost made a costly mistake, but that fear quickly turned to anger. "Those motherf#####s, why can't they just leave people alone?" Fricking pirates, he said bitterly. Next, Alexander paused what he was doing and locked down his computer. So no one, not even the crew, could access it. Then he got up and went to get his plasma pistol but felt the urge to stop. If he died, who would put Eva back together? But Alexander brushes that fear aside. He is not a coward, but the others may be able to handle it. Either way, he still picked up his pistol and made sure it worked. Once he was satisfied, Alexander headed to the bridge and went to check the damage so far. Accessing a console and while the shields were down, the hull was still fine. Well, the best that a ship that ran on duck tape and hope could handle. Getting on his comms, "Captain, do you need more backup outside? I am going to try and get shields back otherwise." Only the crew could hear this.
