Deep space exploration

[Saya]

The energy readings from this were off the charts and it seemed like it was unstable. Certainly nothing one should consider picking up with no further research or security measures at least. But she maneuvered the Falchion closer. The tractor beam wouldn't respon to pulling it so she'd have to get near it. The ship's systems didn't like that at all but there was nothing to be done about that. It looked magnificent, powerful and dangerous.

Despite the danger she slowly maneuvered the cargo bay over the small object. It was ridiculously small for the power output and the moment the tractor beam could apply enough strength, the thing moved and got pulled into the small ship. The structure powered down and the warning of her shields being attacked fired up again. And much stronger than before now. As if the organisms went mad from the removal of the power cell.

Panicked, Saya swung the ship around, scraping the structure as she gave power to the engines once more, trying to get out of the nomad installation. The spaces were narrow and the shield alert was just making her more and more agitated. What if they were attacked and left? was the only clear thought she got in between avoiding a column and a wall. It wasn't helping. Her shields were dangerously close to failing when she finally rammed the ship through the membrane at the entrance. The hull made a disgusting screeching sound inside the cockpit as the ship's hull was deformed at the front. But she had no time to care and thrust through, outside.

And the shield alarm stopped. To then be replaced by a half worried, half cheerful Marco screaming through the comms. "You did it! Damn are you alright?!" He must have seen the damage to the ship and the speed she was approaching the Corvo with. She nearly rammed the docking clamps that would pull the Falchion into place. "I think so." She could only breathe as a reply as the ship was being secured. "Get us out of here right now. I'll explain then."
