Reactor Core

Chapter Nine

Ensign Brooks ran quickly out of the reactor room. He had placed the explosive charge on the main panel that controls the amount of nuclear power leading into the reactor itself. He had to try and get off the submarine or else it would be the death of him and everyone else.

Just as he made it to the west end missile room. All of the sudden the Seaview had lost it's mobility with everyone losing there balance. Both Captain Crane and Admiral Nelson had fallen out of their bunks in each of the cabins. Both men tried to get to the intercom to find out what the hell was going on.

Even though everyone inside the Control Room were on the ground from the explosion. They still didn't know what was causing it as a damage control were heading for the area of the reactor room. Patterson and Kowalski on the detail had on their radiation suits in case radiation was exposed inside.

They opened up the hatchway in spite the fact the radiation detector wasn't showing much exposure. Even though they would have to try and shut down the main panel with the flames shooting out.

Screaming out loud to his friend Patterson. Kowalski tells him that he will try while Patterson and two others would put the flames out.

"Be careful Ski!" Patterson cries out with throwing a dose of water on the sparking panel. The Seaview hasn't lost any power with the panel being shut down.

Kowalski was able to shut it down with the last of the flames in his way. It was at this point with Captain Crane, Nelson and Doctor Mendez came in wearing radiation suits. They were worried that the spy had gotten away this time.

Admiral Nelson was pissed. He ordered Captain Crane to have a ship wide search of the submarine no matter how many of crew he uses. "Yes sir, right away. I will lead the search with Patterson and Kowalski joining me." Crane said with Patterson and Kowalski to remove there suits outside with heading for the armory to pick there choices of weapons.

Meanwhile in the Control room...Commander Morton was checking with those on watch to keep a close eye on the radiation levels throughout the Seaview.

After getting rid of his radiation suit. Captain Lee Crane came back to the Control Room to make sure Commander Morton was fine as with the panel over Radar was working proper with the radiation levels around the entire submarine.

"How are the levels Chip?" He asked with needing to gather up the search teams.

"Normal Lee. Master of Arms will be coming forward to meet with you about searching for the spy." Chip said with continuing to check the levels while sitting in the radar seat.

"Good. Admiral Nelson wants to catch him as quickly as possible Chip." It was at this particular moment when the search teams arrived to discuss tactics with Captain Crane.
