The aliens working with Tia and Kord were soon wrist and elbow deep in replacing wires, relays and other feed lines that had gotten burned out. The process would end up taking a better part of a day or so but by the end of it they had the ship’s core soon ready to initiate a restart power up cycle.

Kord went around double checking the reactor shielding and connections.

“At least they don’t use infrareds as reactor shielding.” Kord said absently.

Kord’s check found no problems with the connections and shielding, everything seemed good to go!

At this point power came back on fully and systems nearby began to reboot with clicks and whirrs. It seems main power had been restored.

Kord would wait to verify a successful restart before reporting such.

With a buzz, click, and whirrrrrr the engine core finally powered up and took over hand off from secondary power sources system checks and odd wave gestures by the engineering female staff showed they were pleased with what they were seeing.

Tia had been scurrying around from location to location checking boot ups, reboots and connections. As the main core took over, she glanced at Kord. “I think we can go ahead and run full system check and make sure it’s really all up on line and going. Don’t want life support crashing when something else begins.” She moved to the nearest console and took a deep breath.

Glancing at her escort, she nodded and smiled. “Let’s run all your checks and see that everything is all right. Need to know what we have and what we still need to work on.” She had the same line of thought the XO did. No point in claiming ‘all was well’ till they knew for sure.
