// Me and the Pilot of the Vibrant Songs (Jade Fire) have authorization to post in this thread.
Nodoka, still a little blinded by the blast, could barely make out what Emiko looked like, as she was shielding her eyes from the intense light of the Vibrant Songs' Cargo Bay. Her ship, the Konpaku, had been blasted apart by a Nomad gunboat while aiding them , only to suffer a unpreventable, catastrophic failure as a result of a malfunctioning SCRAM mechanism. The escape pod had jettisoned only seconds before a white light eminated from the ship, creating a albeit temporary, star in the Omicron Delta system - fueled by nearly 50 Kilotons of Nuclear and Anti-Matter munitions, as well as the nuclear reactor onboard the vessel, all going up at once.
The pod had zoomed out from its' origin point at high speed, before slowly decelerating and hitting the Vibrant Songs, only to be tractored in by its' captain. Aboard, Nodoka has recalled her AI to their respective cards, and has opened the pod.
"Ugh... Migraine from hell, all from that hit.. " she says, holding two computer daughterboards, which bear the Kishiro Logo on them, in her hands, as she steps out of the pod.

The hanger bay didn't seem to replicate the external hull of what was a Bretoinan Palace Liner, however instead mimicked the insides of a Kusarian ship. The air slowly became more and more breathable as the vents started and exerted their oxygen. Nodoka would see that there were more then just a few pods in the bay, there were Order marked ones, Core marked ones and even Freelancer, Zoner and Corsair ones from all of the captains rescue missions. One of them seemed to stand out however and that was the fact it was surrounded in pieces that had the markings of an Order bomber called Sabre One..Sera's vessel. It was not in one piece, but several and scrapped all around the pod.
Behind Nodoka was the sound of static, sparks appeared on the floor before a hardlight projector started up, showing the onboard Gallic AI Ruby "Welcome aboard miss, my name is Ruby, Emikos personal AI."
Nodoka turns around to see Ruby. "Whoa..." She puts her hand through Ruby, interfering with the hologram. "Didn't know you guys had holograms like this.." She says to herself.
"Hello there.. Uh.. where's the captain of the ship.. I'd like to speak with her." Nodoka says to the AI, looking around at the hangar, seeing the pods, some with people insid and unconscious, other left behind, possibly as trophies for the captain of the Vibrant Songs. She looks to the cards she has in her hands, and then to Ruby. "Also, I hope it's not too much to ask, once I get into the bridge, mind if I temporarily install these? I think my friends would also like to meet the captain."
