Kit BashirA series of disconnected moments.
You feel your way through the darkness. The only light is the illuminated ESCAPE sign on the lifepod hatch.
Your face illuminated by an ESCAPE sign, you gather your strength. With a wrench and an unladylike grunt you rip the self-contained emergency light from the bulkhead.
Holding an emergency light in your teeth, you turn away from the escape hatch and locate a particular maintenance panel in the floor. You pull the panel up, and kick off the wall, piloting your body into the maintenance space.
You are wiring a battery to an electronics rack. My electronics rack. Moments merge to continuity.
You are speaking. “Well, Ship, we’re in it this time.”
⌜Life support is offline. You should get to the lifepod⌟
“Yeah, I was there earlier. You’re running off its battery.”
⌜Why are you here, Love? I can’t feel all my systems but the fusion bottle wasn’t looking good earlier.⌟
"There’s something I needed to get first.”
⌜What is more important than your life?⌟
“You really don’t know? Take a deep breath, I’m going to eject you. Then we’re going to the lifepod together.”
