“I see it… this… this is new.” Jarred said with a concerned look as he began to try to access the console unsure at all what any of this meant. “You know first day I encounter you outside of the office and now the place was blowing up all around them.”

Vadoma frowned. “I had nothing to do with this Chief. I swear it.”

The Core began to surge, as if it was preparing to head to warp speed only the power was fluctuating the wrong way, it was a power profile that Alindor would never have seen, much less ever used on the Saracen if he was concerned with safety protocols. The Saracen was simply not designed for this type of energy assignment and the power surge appeared to have begun building dangerously.

When the core started humming, the engineer frowned. “NOOOooo....” She growled under her breath and tried to get the computer to respond so she could balance the readings and bring them back to normal. “Alindor…” her voice called out his name for the first time, unaware she wasn’t calling him ‘Chief’ suddenly. The name came out in a long, drawn out voice of concern and call for help. “I … it’s not supposed to do this!” She bit her lip and moved to another console hoping to get something to respond. She kept glancing at the Core as if, any minute now, it was going to just jump out at her. The hum was almost more unnerving to her than the readings.

“Can you divert anything from the core systems?” Jarred said as he came over checking the system layouts as Vadoma worked. “What the devil… if I say this isn’t supposed to happen will that makes you feel any better?”

She shifted sideways, their bodies touching from his nearness. She laughed slightly and shook her head. “Probably not… but you are welcome to say it and I’ll pretend it does? Would that help any?” She was starting to get worried, but it wasn’t affecting her performance any.

“I mean it does make me feel better, denial has gotten me through a whole lot, an ex marriage, failed romances, my parents… pretend they don’t exist…” Jarred said as he was mid tapping as he was diverting the power as he was trying to maintain the vital systems as he looked over at Vadoma. “Pretend they don’t exist always works,” he said with a grunt as more sirens kept going off.

“Oh what the hell is going on now.” he guffed as he felt a twitch of annoyances.

Alindor, CE

She gave a half laugh and leaned just enough to nudge him with her shoulder. “Don’t supposed we could just pretend they don’t exist?” She was making a goofy face if he bothered to look. He had delved into his past and it lingered on his face. She liked his smile and wanted him to be annoyed with the smile under it rather than the sigh she sensed in him.

Her arm reached across in front of him as she shut the newest alarm off. It would have been comforting, or even comical, to be this close to the Chief, if things weren’t falling apart. “It’s going thru all the systems. Almost like… it’s searching for something.” She let out a low growl and tried to cordon off engineering. If they lost engines or life support....
