Sam looked out of the screen to see the red beam leave DD's hand. It was coming straight at her.
Sam immediately sat down and put her headphones on.
'Tucker! I need you to get here NOW!' Sam yelled and she disconnected him. Then she began to press random buttons.
'Not that one, not that one either. Where is that damn shield?' Suddenly the pod shook and Sam fell off her seat. It was a direct hit
'Warning, hull breach in 10 seconds.' came the computer's monotone voice.
'Oh God! Where's the escape hatch.' Sam got up, ignoring her throbbing hand. The escape pod began to rumble and Sam fell over again. She moved a huge piece of metal off the escape hatch. Sam heaved the hatch open but it only opened a bit.
'Warning hull breach in 4 seconds, 3 seconds, 2 seconds...'
Sam, with a figure as slim as hers, slipped through the hold but she didn't make it in time.
'Hull has collapsed, immediate lock down initiated.'
Sam looked down to see that her only way out was now shut. She could see
'Warning, life support failing.'
Sam grabbed a small breathing device and put it over her. Then she placed a helmet over her head.
'This ought to keep me alive for a while.'
Sam jumped out of the hatch and ran to the control panel. She saw the transporter button
'Computer? Is the transporter still intact?' Sam asked, her eyes on the small red digital clock.
'Affirmative. Self destruct in 7 seconds.'
'Computer is there enough energy to transport more than one person.'
'Negative, there is only enough energy for one person to be transported. Self destruct on 4 seconds.'
Sam pressed the buttons and jumped into the transporter pad.
'One to beam out to escape pod 1b.' Blue light shined down and transported Sam just in time. The escape pod blew up into thousands of pieces.
