ôwe're losing power fast, capacitor is only at 55%.ö Phenkali exclaimed. ôwhat the hell are we even going up against?ö finally giving into my curiosity ôdon't worry about WHAT we're shooting at. Just make sure THAT DAMN GUN is shooting.ö Draymour quickly correcting my behavior.
Another hit against the hull shielding, it shook the ship violently, but the round probably didn't hit as close this time. Grabbing the rail along the terminal to keep myself from stumbling on the floor.
ôshields are at 50%. they're leveling out.ö phenkali identified. Damn, those shields better hold. ôRYKAN, there is a jam in the loading bay. Man my terminal so I can fix the round.ö ôaye aye sirö replying to Draymour
I took one more glance at my terminal to make sure everything was running right before moving on to Draymour's. As I let go of the terminal the ground below me started shaking again, a little more violent than last time. Enough to make my knees buckle and fall under my own weight. I gave no time away and jumped to my feet, running towards the next terminal. I saw on the firing screen what looked like cross hairs with a square box around it and four visual tracking lines extruding from the center of the enemy ship. Target: Drake class Battle cruiser Distance: 50 KM Shield integrity:75% Armor integrity: 100% Hull integrity: 99% The drake from the angle of the firing screen appeared to look like a giant wing. With missile bays extending out of the hull. Most drakes being heavy in the shielding but weaker in Armor and Hull. the green circle lit up identifying that the gun is ready to fire. I quickly pressed it trying not waste time on reloading. I saw another volley of bright lights emerge from the ships bays. As they closed in they seemed to be getting brighter and brighter. They're heading straight for us. ôBRACE FOR IMPACT.ö barking throught the intercom.
This time I was completely thrown from the terminal. Hitting the wall behind me, the force of the blow yanked all the air out of me. I felt my lungs and diaphram all compress, as if it had a 100 KG weight dropped on it. Lifting my head was hard. Did the gravity increase? I puzzlingly questioned. Finally getting my head full erected I saw fire and flames sprouting out of the targeting terminal. Smoke filling the room quickly. ôsomeone call the fire controlö I said breathlessly no response
ôhello?ö ôare the intercoms dead?ö I turned my head around blur filling the edges of my eyes. Phenkali was pinned against the wall with a rod going straight through his chest. My heart sank in the bottom of my stomach. This isn't happening. I slowly recovered to my feet, stumbling feeling a pain in my waist. looking down to only see my suit torn and blood spilling out. Touching all the reaches of my stomach. I activated the nano repair system. Soon the cut with fizzling and the torn suit was fully stitched up. I slowly move my way to Phenkali's terminal, seeing what damage was done. Opening up the load out of the ship
