[center][h3][color=0054a6]NAUTICA[/color][/h3][color=0054a6][b]Location:[/b][/color] Bridge[/center][hr]The situation was deteriorating rapidly. For once, Nautica wished that she did not have skills that were useful to the running of the ship as well as any groundside mission. Thsi would all be simpler if she was one of the protoforms frozen in stastis. [i][color=0054a6]At least I would have died in piece. Bah![/color][/i] she thought bitterly as one of the maximals announced the door would not be holding up for much longer.

Getting up form the console where she was trying to isolate and shut down power to the bridge door to prevent it from being hacked, she ran over to the Maximal. [color=0054a6]"Well, if the door is to fall any second, then let it at least be of one last use to us."[/color] she suggested. Reaching behind the shell on her back, she produced a rectangular device with a timer on the front. [color=0054a6]"Breaching charge. It will turn the door into a missile. It should be weak enough not to blast a hole in the hull... I think. Once we breach, we can either charge them, or stay here and defend whoever is not flattened by it. Which is it going to be?"[/color]
