“Don’t know if I see the point, but if that’s what you want, sure.” Jess answered. “Not really a ‘meltdown’ exactly. That’s something that happens more to fission reactors. Fusion reactors tend to just shut down when something goes wrong, but if there was spacetime warping in the core, then there would have been one hell of an energy surge first.”

Jess finally got up to join in on helping Senjen get into the cargo bay. While he had actually been able to handle getting into the cargo bay on his own, it was easier to splice the power cables to his own power source with some help. Once linked in, he could power the cargo bay door. He did not even need to ask Jess for help in bypassing the lockdown to unseal the door. Since it was being activated without a central connection, the computer booted into factory settings. Senjen noted that there was no release of air when the cargo door unsealed, which meant the interior was already a vacuum. 

Meanwhile, Light did not have to widen the largest of the gaps too much in order to squeeze through into the reactor module. When the cargo ramp hit the ground under the heightened gravity, he would feel the impact reverberate through the hull. 

“Ah, looks like a mess down here. Looks like some of the crates got knocked loose in the crash. Most of what they were carrying was mining gear, but what we’re looking for should be secure near the back. Just got to get through the rest of this junk.” Jess informed him.

Through the breach, Light was able to drop down into the module’s maintenance corridor. The reactor itself was roughly donut-shaped at the center of the module, with the corridor encircling it. Right away, he could see he could see a massive hole in the side of the reactor that looked to have been made with intense heat. Indeed, there were signs of what had once been molten metal re-solidifying on surfaces all around the hall. Just opposite the hole in the reactor, there was a hole in the module’s wall as well. There was a tank inside with a hole blasted out from the top, judging by the metal bent outwards around the opening. Scattered around as well, both near and far from the signs of the blast, parts of the hull were also “twisted” in a rather unnatural fashion. 

At the very least, it did not look like it would be difficult to get out of the reactor module. The door to the hallway leading out was “closed”, but with a massive hole melted in its right side.
