"Arthur has been tinkering with technology..." Rainier replied as he opened up a sandbox environment for his CATSAI and plugged it in to see just what this little surprise was. The stark difference in Atlesian and Flagg operating systems should be a defense all of its own, but one could never be too careful.

Unfortunatly, you can't exactly run a battleship off a scroll. Settling down at the helm, Rainier took a long look over the controls and various consoles to see which ones did what. ''Just navigations... ''After a few careful minutes of pondering, the Archer locked in the vessel's course. The autopilot should do the rest.

A sealed hatch in the far back of the room read "Combat Information Center" That's likely where I'll find gunnery stations. Rainier walked up towards the door only to find it locked tight. His scroll was currently snuffing out Arthur's worm and he gave the passcard from earlier to Loretta.

On the one hand, he pondered if this lock could be coaxed open with a shock arrow, but held off. That old cliche only works in the movies anyway. Maybe that captain stashed his card here before he left...

After the explosion, Loretta peeked out to see just what the hell had happened. Dissapating her singularity, she saw scorch marks and residual burning everywhere. From the console she was behind, she could already hear the alarms screaming into her ear. Acting fast, the crocodile ripped a fire extinguisher off and sprayed into the place where her rune once was. Ice dust mixed with expanding fire-retardent foam made very short work of anything that could detonate the fuel for the reactor.

Now, she was pissed.

Leaping off the balcony, Loretta marched toward Nickelae's charred self; any semblance of the friendly little flirt from earlier was gone, gone, gone. Even if all he was trying to do was cover his tracks while saying as much about the plan as he could, still...

"NICKELAE! WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING !?!"

"DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A FIRE STARTS IN AN ENGINE ROOM ?!?! ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL US ALL, YA FUCKING DUMBASS !?!"
