-frowns at the supposed Lieutenant, vague memories stirring; still, he knows that his chances of survival will be greater if he follows them-

Yes, sir. Heading for the pods now.

...Those drones aren't helping, either. Come on, on me.

-Stops at a closed bulkhead, and checks the data readout on a small console beside it-

This next compartment is exposed to vacuum. Do you all have sealed suits?

-a small blue light in my helmet indicates that my suit has 100% integrity-

My suit's sealed.

Actually, this is a great way to make us Restart At Level One - I mean, it's fun tooling around in a ship that can out-gun a Star Destroyer, but it was a mite too powerful.

Alright. Brace for decompression.

-Keys a button on the console. There's a pneumatic hiss as the door groans open and the air is sucked out through the door. It seems artificial gravity has failed completely in this section of the ship, too. The room seems to be a motor pool, where vehicles are stored and maintained. Several have already been sucked out into space.-

Hope nobody had a hovercar they particularly liked stored in here.

Fresh kills. There may be more of those drones in here.

-The hood on the car Flanker floats by bursts open, and five drones pop out, propelling themselves at the group's collective faces using their little thrusters-

Whoa!

-Grabs one of the drones by its limbs and throws it out of one of the many holes in the ship, then shoots the last one.-

We can't stick around here much longer. Let's get to the pods, it's just around the bend, now.

Who wants to bet that there'll probably be someone hiding in one of the pods?

Let's hope the pods are still intact.

-Opens the next door into the escape pod section, and looks around.-

Looks like most of the pods have been launched already. There are three left, though.

Doesn't mean they're one-seaters, rookie. There's enough space for five people in one pod.
