the person stands from where she was, then walks to one of the doors, leaving the area, the other six troops following, the Spatial hovers near the Light fighter till they both are 5k out from both the dread and the rogue ship, a few moments later the Gunship follows. several minutes later, one of the supports for the dreads reactor goes flying off into space, leaving it with a with no movement in space. the burning slowly takes the reason the reactor slowly offline. the gunship watchs the dread, the spatial and the light fighter useing the Ion storm to an advatige and scan the dread from a safe distance.
After leaving bridge Timothy walked through corridors till he found Silver, trying to break through sealed door.Sound of his steps distract her. When Silver turned, Timothy was in 15 steps from her.
"How did they called me before leave? Devil? Guess now i am closer to meaning of this word then ever before." Timothy slowly moved closer. Flashing eyes and weak flame around his body created image of demon. Face showed no emotions, he was looking straight at Silver.
"After 23 years i remember my true nature." In few steps from Silver he stopped and prepared for fight.
"Interesting how would it end if i would stay in family... But... it wasn't my choice after all." Timothy took his sword out and point it at Silver.
About 5k away from the Colossus, a large violet light appears. 2 violet rings diverge from each other.
Slowly a shape is becoming more and more apparent. It can now be recognized as an Artificial Intelligence Cruiser with the Identification of the Occam Razor. The Cruiser does not move.
It scans all other ships.
It slowly starts to move towards the colossus.
A small hatch opens and a tiny probe launches in the direction of the Colossus.
Transmissions can be noticed between the probe and the Cruiser, but can not be decoded.

"Boss, another vessel just appeared here. No lifesigns, but it's active.", a transmission reached Exspes from his ship while he still was standing on the Colossus' bridge.
He grabbed his com device and moved his head, to tell his men to leave. "This is getting too crowded, I'm sure that brawl will attract more ships sooner or later. Probably sooner, if you consider the strange things here."
He sighed, he still was curious, but now it was getting dangerours. "Vlad, call everyone back, let's get the hell out of here." He looked around the bridge for a last time, then turned around and moved back to the cargo bay where they have breached into the dreadnought. "And please tell me we've found something valueable at least", he added while moving through the dark corridors of the huge ship. "Some technical stuff and so on, we will at least make some bucks with it." "Excellent, that's better than nothing." He reached the cargo bay where the boarding team has gathered, together with several crates of stuff. They loaded the cargo to the Scylla and Exspes entered his bridge. "Okay, everyone, I actually have no idea what this was, but we will keep an eye on those other ships, that's for sure. And now, set a course to Buffalo, as fast as possible."
The Scylla slowly drifted away from the Colossus and activated it's engines soon after, flying straight to Buffalo, leaving the others behind on the cursed ship.
After few seconds of silence Timothy quietly said "Very well." With fast move he approached Silver and tried to hit her with his katana. Silver manage to dodge but Tim easily followed her. With fast hits from every side he seem to be testing her defense. After several minutes sudden emergency message "Alert! Incoming AI vessel!" sounded through whole Colossus. Timothy didn't payed attention, just smiled a bit and continued to engage.
For following several minutes Timothy attacked with strong and fast hits. Sound of the fight echoed through corridors. Then Timothy made pretty hard hit and pushed Silver few steps away. "Nice. But not good enough." He said calmly with the same weird voice. Timothy point his katana on Silver. But suddenly something distract him. He point his look at the floor and for a second just stood like he was listening to something. After this he easily countered Silvers attack what made her step back a bit. "Seems like only you, me and some of your peoples left aboard." He moved sword a bit backward "AI seem to be after something. I have to deal with you fast." He made quick move to Silver and continued fighting...
The AI Probe flies a circle around the Colossus while executing a high energy scan of it. Then it retreats back to the AI Cruiser and flies through the small hatch which closes then.
A Shuttle undocks from the Cruiser and heads towards the colossus. When it reached the colossus, it decelerates until it hits the hull of the Dreadnought.
A loud bump can be heard from the inside of the dreadnought.
You can see a plasma cutter cutting a circle of the hull out. A male human is climbing through the opening. He does not care about the incandescent wall of the opening.
His steps sound metallic while he moves deeper into the ship. He hears a voice saying ... deal with you fast.
After some time he moves around the corner of a corridor when he fastly notices a man and a woman fighting.
"Common sense is the best distributed commodity in the world, for every man is convinced that he is well supplied with it." René Descartes
Timothy fight Silver with all anger he collect for passed years, but none of this showed on his face. When AI bot appeared Timothy stop fighting for a while and a bit angrily whispered "What are you here for." He prepared to strike AI but sudden shock paralyzed his body. He felt sharp pain in his chest. The pain spread all over his body in a second and Timothy dropped his katana. He started to hear whispers in his head and felt that he can't move. The flames around him gone wild, rapidly appeared with incredible power and then disappear for a seconds and again. Timothy started to scream in agony and grab his ear with one hand and tried to lean against the wall by other. In the moment he touched the wall there was a slight explosion that throw Timothy on the floor. From the spot Timothy touched the wall several blinding flashes of light run in several directions, multiplying and disappearing across the walls. Series of explosions came from the spots where light disappears. Timothy continued lying unconsciously on the floor but while after he felt, the strong barrier activated around his body so no one could even touch him. The ship was falling apart. Warning to abandon ship come cross the ship so everyone aboard run to their ships. As soon as everyone launched Colossus engaged cloaking devise and right before completely disappear there was 2 large explosion in the area of docking bay and engine. After that ship completely disappeared. Everything went silent and there was no sight of the Colossus, field or anything else. The place where ship was was as empty as other space.
