CFV-Olympia, Sabah Shipyard, Coronado, 1423 Crayter Standard Time
Richard stood up from his seat. "Ah...Enigma...What a relief. First of all its RICHARD! Not Richards. You dimwitted kid. You never learned that. As many things. You, and the fools in parliament never saw potential in this decision. I would not expect you to blindly follow orders and accuse me of treason. You stood by my side Enigma. When Chandler conquered everything in her iron fist. You stood by me against Gauls. Yet even YOU now blindly follow orders. WE give orders Enigma. Tau 44 is a worthless system. A chore to feed, to go, to come from. Offers nothing. Why we even fought for it? Only to have infectees suddenly emerge into the system? We could let Octaviarum take care of the system and make Coronado a fortress! Iron beacon of people!" Then he drawn his pistol even faster than most professional CIS operative could do and shot at Enigma. She was fast and took cover in time with her nanoglass shield. Although she felt the immense force of specially crafted pistol...
Her weapon was still pointed at Richard, his speech left her unimpressed, but she was still aware of the surroundings and what he did. As he had pulled his pistol and she ducked into cover, the force of his weapon was still enough to give her a run for her money, a smirk on her lips as she kept low behind the cover.
"Ah yes, Richard. I always knew you were somewhat of an egotistical maniac. Tau-44 is our home. You were willing to sell it. Now I am here to bring you before a just trial. Though by your actions and my knowledge of you, you'd prefer to die in combat."
She let herself drop onto the floor exiting the cover as she laid on the floor, she discharged her weapon at Richards knee and arm, trying to disarm and incapacitate him as the Soldiers and Agents around her kept a close eye on the situation, though they did not intervene, they knew it was too important to capture Richard.
"Give up Admiral, let us do our job and face what is coming. Olympia will be locked down by myself under Directoral orders."

Richard merely reacted to shots as if a bee buzzed his arm and leg. Then shot at Enigma's weapon while weapon discharges revealed his synthetic innards of arm and leg. "Did you think i wasnt prepared to get shot at my nonvitals? I ordered sturdy enough materials for my arm and leg remember? Thanks to Rio Umeda, i can get shot at my synthetic arm and leg and still survive as if nothing happened. You should have used an EMP device to subdue me." As he finished he shot at knee of Enigma. The bullet pierced her knee and stopped at lower leg. "Stay down. Fool."
As the bullet pierced her Knee, she screamed out in pain before she smirked, glancing at Richard then her eyes studied him shortly before she shook her head, an Agent stepped up behind Richard and detonated a small EMP device right behind his back before pistolwhipping his neck. As his body slumped forward, Enigma pulled herself up onto her feet then.
"You need to learn to watch your surroundings, Admiral."
She leaned against the cover she was using the entire time then and watched if he had anything else to throw at them or if he was finally subdued.

As the EMP device triggered, it caused him to have a great pain. Hıs strength used against him and revealed a weakness. He never thought they would bring a bloody EMP device with them. Then he got pistolwhipped at neck by an operative. His last action was pressing a button on a console before falling over to ground and losing conciousness. Suddenly the Olympia shook violently and then the familiar sound of entering self-created wormhole confirmation heard, right after 'Corinth' also confirmed they entered Omicron Delta, right next to Freeport 11. That caused the ship's powercore to go critical heat. Suddenly ship automatically went into Red Alert state and emergency lights came online. Everyone suddenly stopped fighting and once again unified against outside threats. Olympia was alone, far away from Crayter's supply lines, engines damaged, powercore being unstable, FTL Drive malfunctioning...
The violent shaking of the ship and the outside influences had confirmed Enigmas fear. The Crazy Admiral had jumped them to wherever and he was now out of Commission. She ordered multiple of the Agents to subdue the Admiral and make sure he cannot escape before she got her communicator.
"Bravo, Enigma. Richard is subdued and arrested. He jumped us to I don't know where. Let the ones you fight know he is no longer their boss. Let them know the Director of the CIS will execute anyone still fighting us and most importantly. Find me the damn Chief Engineer."
After quite the shaky amount of fighting. Most of the cos-ways were already under CIS control. As Asteria and three other AIT finished their sweep of level H, in order to ensure no other loyalists were about, she heard Enigma's order.
A few moments later, she was in the engineering level, with the Chief Engineer in front, held tight by two AITs.
She holstered her gun and tapped her comm-unit.
"Enigma, Asteria. I have the Chief Engineer. Shall I bring him up or have him work from here?
"Asteria, we've been jumped and the ship is taking it quite heavily. Take the Chief to the Jumpdrives and FTL and have him give us an estimate on when we can jump back. I want it done ASAP."
Her focus then turned to the bridge and it's consoles, a few of the ships crew arose from hiding places and surrendered, Enigma turned to them then, addressing them, that they shall not be punished for the Admirals treason since they hadn't joined the fight. Those who are loyal to the Republic shall overcome and help get the Olympia back. Enigma opened up a Shipwide comms channel.
"This is Director Enigma of the Crayterian Intelligence Service. Many of you have heard of us, many in rumors or dreams. We have taken control of the ship and have arrested Admiral Richard. If you still think to stand in our way, you will share his fate. Stand down all those who oppose us lay down your arms and surrender to the nearest CIS Agent. No harm will come to you unless you intend to harm us."
"Alright. Chief Engineer, Lead me to FTL Drive section." Said Voidwalker. "Enigma. Voidwalker. I am taking the chief to FTL Drive section. I will have him at location in 3 minutes." Pointed his pistol at Chief Engineer's head. "Double time it Adam. We need this ship return home safely. It is The Olympia after all." Chief Engineer responded "Calm down agent! I am at your side!" Voidwalker merely steadied his aim on Chief Engineer. "These are dark times, Adam. Dark times require us. We require precautions taken and this gun at my hand is merely a precaution." Then they started to move to FTL section. Olympia's powercore and FTL Drive sections was unique among others and only Adam and his engineer team knew how to keep them at top condition. As they entered, sparks and smoke enveloped them. Voidwalker opened one of his suit's pockets and wore a sunglass that looked like an ordinary sunglass, however it had night vision, thermal vision and a battle-assistant interface when needed. He also gave one to Adam. "Keep it confidental. CIS tech." Both then set their sunglasses to night vision and moved on to deeper maze of mechanical marvel. Chief assessed the damage. "Leaks on stabilizer, wormhole creator is malfunctioning and it may randomly start itself and jump us to places. Which totally sucks. I can fix 'em. However only as a bandaid solution. This thing needs a complete inspection and repair at Sabah." Voidwalker nodded and Adam started to work on leaks. After 2 tedious hours and explaining why they were there to Zoners and heated debates, Adam managed to fix the Drive partially. "Alright. This thing can make it for one jump, however we should not overload it by jumping nearby ships. Thus we should make some distance." Voidwalker proceeded to give status report to Enigma. "Enigma. Voidwalker. Adam says we can jump but we need to make distance first." Then voidwalker opened general comms. "Alright you nutjobs! We need someone who can man the helm and get us out of here!" He received answers and he wasnt happy "What do you mean 'Helm Officer got killed' ? Cant anybody fucking man the helm here? Useless fools!" Voidwalker sighed. "What about the blasted AI system?" Adam responded to Voidwalker. "Corinth is out of juice, Agent. If we gotta move the ship we gotta reroute the limited power the powercore gives right now. Damn Admiral overcharged the Jumpdrive to get us here quickly. I think he was going to run into Order Space." Voidwalker cursed and sighed. "Enigma. Voidwalker. It seems those blasted fools cannot man the helm. I am going to give it a shot."
Hearing the transmission from Voidwalker, Enigma took a seat in the Captains Chair, rubbing her chin a bit in her palm before looking at the people around her, a short nod before she pulled up the console before her.
"Voidwalker, I've piloted a Zephyr before, this can't be too much of a difference, just get those Jumpdrives back up and enough power to jump us home, I'll take the rest from up here."
She then powered up the Impulse drives and began to push the Olympia away from the vessels around, to the nearest free area on their scanners
