Everything went in freefall and in that way things could connect in the brain, Cori felt the similitude of this moment with others she had experienced. Things went dark.

When she blinked and opened her eyes she was no longer on the stool at the worktable chatting with Leana Parsons, a specialist in biochemistry that she had been shadowing today. She pressed her hands to the deck and pushed her chest off with some difficulty. She must have hit the deck hard as her ribs hurt a little and she struggled to take a full breath at first, but it was fine after a moment. The lab was illuminated by pulsing light of a red alert.

“GALEN, what is the cause of the red alert?”

“The red alert was triggered by a hull breach affecting Decks 7, 8A and 9A, aft location.”

“Sh!t,” Cori said and looked over. Leana was also pushing herself upright. “Leana, you okay?”

She nodded. “Just a little winded. You?”

“Same,” Cori said. “I don’t have a duty station but we should see if we can help.” The other scientist nodded and they helped each other to their feet and headed carefully through the door. Cori peeked out into the corridor, knowing the breach was farther aft then this lab, but unsure if there would be more damage.

A bright bluish-white light pierced the darkness and flooded a ten square meter area with light. At the center of the light was a wild-haired and heavily tattooed figure wearing a pair of cargo shorts and white sleevless t-shirt that said Wish You Were Here with an arrow pointing at the base of a mushroom cloud and carrying a black pack slung over one shoulder.

Kane looked around and saw Dalton and snapped “How many in here, Lieutenant? And how many wounded?”

Kane, R&D (And A Damn Fine Physician)

Cori sighed in relief at the sight of Kane because that meant the corridor was safe, or at least traversable. “Just us two in the bio lab. We were just going to check on the other labs. Lieutenant Parsons is with me. We’re both okay for the most part. Just knocked off out stools and hit the deck hard.”
