End of the Nightmare
Part II. Officer Down

"Though lovers be lost love shall not;
And death shall have no dominion."
--Dylan Thomas
Tyr ran as fast as he could through the halls of the Andromeda heading for the Hanger Bay, a million thoughts racing through his mind all at once. What happened? Where did the last ship come from? Who was the pilot? Was Beka alive? He replayed the whole thing over and over in his head in search of those answered, but didn't find any.
When he finally got to the Hanger Bay, Tyr ran in and headed straight for the Eureka Maru, completely ignoring the Nietzschean ship. Let the others worry about that scum, Tyr thought angrily. The doors of the ship were jammed tight, and it took Tyr a great deal of strength to force them open. Once that was done, he stepped inside.
The interior looked as bad at the exterior. There was smoke everywhere. Wires, cables, and broken pipes were dangling from the ceiling. The ends of the wires were giving off static sparks. He climbed over broken pieces of metal before he got to the cockpit. What he saw next was horrifying.
Beka was slumped in the pilot's chair. She was unconscious. The area around her abdominal was bleeding heavily, but it was difficult to tell exactly where the wounds were. The blood flooded all over her cloths and the equipment around her. Her head must have been cut as well, because there was blood in her hair. She was bruised and cut all over.
Not wasting another second, Tyr easily picked her up and carried her to medical bay. She would survive. She had to.
