As they watched the Black crewmate drift away from their ship, the vessel's scanners suddenly sprang to life, their mechanical hum filling the air. The ship did a swift scan and a calm electronic voice declared, "No alien life detected. The Impostor has been ejected." The crew collectively released a sigh of relief.
However Red wasn't happy with Blue, Red pointed at Black crewmate that was drifting away then pointed at Blue then back to Black then at himself, making his silent accusation clear. Blue, understanding what Red is disappointed in him, Bule hung his head in guilt. It was his unwarranted suspicion that had nearly led to Red's unjust ejection remorse washed over Blue as he realized how close they had come to losing a crewmate and friend due to his own paranoia.
In a gesture of acknowledgment and apology, Blue nodded his head, his expression filled with regret. He needed no words to convey his actions had spoken loud and clear. Red, recognizing Blue's sincere regret, shook his head and waved a forgiving hand at Blue
Pink, who had been observing this silent exchange, approached Red and affectionately patted him on the head. Then, with a reassuring smile, Pink shot Red a thumbs-up, a simple gesture that spoke volumes. Red mirrored the gesture
Yellow Ran up to the trio, brandishing his datapad. The screen displayed an alarming countdown: "Jumping in T-minus 3:32."
The crew wasted no time in springing into action. Red and Pink immediately sprinted toward the warp drive, determined to assess the extent of the damage and find a way to fix it. At the same, Yellow and Blue raced towards the bridge, the urgency of their mission weighing heavily on them. Time was ticking down, and they needed to stop the countdown and prevent an unintended jump The two group know if they jump now they won't be coming home, they have two critical tasks before them repairing the sabotaged warp drive and halting the impending jump, so they they jump they can jump safety.
Pink being the "best qualified engineer" left on the ship after the loss of Green, Pink was well aware that he didn't have the same level of expertise as Green who was a victim to Black's deception. An internal monologue of frustration swirled in Pink's mind. "Damnit, Black, why couldn't it have been me instead?" With determination Pink picked up Green's datapad and stared at the complex blueprint of the warp drive. The intricate web of circuits, wires, and components looked like a foreign language to him. But Pink remembered something Green used to say, "Fake it till you make it" . Pink took a deep breath and began fiddling with the components, trying to mimic what Green would have done. If he failed, Red would help him right?
Red, seeing Pink's efforts, realized that he would only get in his way at this critical moment. With a sense of helplessness, he decided to stand back and let Pink work his engineering magic, Pink did work under Green the 'Chief Engineer' so pink must be as good as him, so Red ran off to and headed towards the ship's electrical room.
Red was no ordinary crewman, he was known as the best electrician in the fleet. He had a knack for understanding any ship's power systems like no one else. As he entered the electrical room, he took a moment to assess the situation. Wires, circuits, and consoles surrounded him, and he felt a surge of confidence. This was his domain
His hands moved deftly, and his mind raced as he made split-second decisions about which systems to prioritize. Red was fully aware that the clock was ticking, and they needed every advantage to survive this predicament. His expertise in electrical systems was becoming a lifeline for the crew.
Meanwhile Yellow and Blue had reached the bridge, where Yellow glanced at his datapad, which now read "T-minus 2:54." Panic bubbled up within him as he rushed to the helm, his fingers frantically dancing across the control panel.
He knows to cancel a warp jump the codes lay in the hands of either the captain or the chief engineer. However, with White, the captain, and Green, the chief engineer, both KIA,
Blue, equally anxious, hurried to the navigation charts to determine their current location and where the ship would jump to if they couldn't stop it in time, as Blue looks around the charts he sees that the jump is not only taking them out of the cluster of planets but out of the known galaxy!
He zoom in the the galaxy it as some reports about radio and television wave coming out of it it was some kind game with where 49 team play in multi-sport event and the game was opened by a guy calling himself The Führer, Adolf Hitler he seem like a nice guy hope he didn't start any wars.
The crew was now scattered across the ship, each member facing their own challenges and racing against the clock. Pink struggled to decipher the warp drive's intricacies, Yellow fought to override the impending jump, and Blue worked to understand their position. The death of their captain and chief engineer left them feeling vulnerable, but they were determined to do whatever it took to survive this ordeal and go back home!
Pink struggling to make sense of the warp drive, Red rerouting power throughout the ship, and Yellow frantically trying to halt the countdown, the crew's combined efforts yielded an unexpected result
As the ship's countdown reached a nerve-wracking five seconds, tension hung thick in the air. The crew members held their collective breath, their eyes fixed on the countdown timer. Time seemed to stretch on forever.
The countdown halted at 5 Seconds the crew members took a breath of relief then the time started to Tick down again, The crew members couldn't reactant in time then the ship shuttered then went into warp jump.
After a while in the warp the ship suddenly stopped with a loud announcement from the Bridge that could be heard throughout the ship "Planetary body detection, emergency stop." The sudden stopped through the crew to the ground
Red was the first to get up to look outside the viewports his eyes widen at the immense size of the planet
It was beautiful a unfamiliar World a small green and blue orb suspended in the inky blackish of space with a gray satellite moon orbiting the planet like a faithful friend,
Alarm Could be heard from the bridge The automated voice says 'Decaying Orbit planetary impact in two minute"
In the midst of their awe at this new world, the crew's expressions turned grim. They were stranded in a precarious situation. The phrase "decaying orbit" bore a chilling weight. It meant that the ship's descent toward the planet,
The crew have to work fast to assess the damage and figure out a plan. With the engine knock outs from the jump The crew once again have to race the clock.
Yellow acting as the ship's helmsman quickly switch to the ship's RCS thrusters to buy time for the other crewmates to work they Magic
Red throws a wrench at the electrical panel.
Pink hit the engine with a crowbar!
Blue emptied the trash compactor?
As yellow predicted the engine roared back to life making orbit around the alien planet! Or are they the aliens now? Let's hope they don't have any aliens film that have them killing them
Somewhere on the planet they a pink skin girl watching her favorite Pre-Quirks film 'Aliens' as a xenomorph kill someone with its tail
Yeah so, the crew dodged yet another bullet, the crew of the MIRA Skeld took their first break in this journey, this was Supposed to be an easy mission goto Polus then back to MIRA HQ 'Easy mission, just a milk run' that what they said…
With the crew in the sit around the Cafeteria the crew take their helmets off after they check O2 they start to talk about their plans they also talk about the life on the planet The discussion took a bit of time. Make planetfall with the dropship or stay in orbit and try to fix the ship with the orbiting satellites in space debris, So they put it to the vote
Pink thinks this is dumb yeah the debris may hit them that's why we got the suit on but nooo 'the debris is going 8,500 m/s at that speed that well throws the suit!' so i put two on 3 to 1 vote if green would here he would back me up!
In the afterlife, Green is laughing at Pink's idea and White wants to know who put Pink on his ship.
'Yeah he would He would definitely support my idea' Pink thought to himself
Red looked down at this datapad and got an ETA of 8,480,069 years to download information off the satellites, but as the progress bar sped up, it only took a few moments.
Red looks at his crewmates. They have been through a lot. What is one more Adventure to them? they survive an imposter on their own ship The Skeld, fix a warp drive that was about to blow up, jump into a Galaxy? Universe? Whatever comes after them they are ready to do whatever tasks need doing!
So First Fic of the First CH. how did i do? this story going to come out slow because of life (fun) but I'm working on the 2nd CH. so expect that one in a few days so cya! Battlebro out!
