[USS Discovery - Main Shuttle Bay - Shuttle Allegany]
"Stand by all thrusters, we're within range." the Captain stated, watching on his monitor as the fight commenced. Boy how much better it would have been if his access code could have disabled the buoys, but it was made clear that his access was to the facility; only a group with a name like Intelligence would act so dull as to give someone a key to the house but not the key to the alarm system.
"Allegheny to Beta Bridge, ready to launch. I suggest you decompress the shuttlebay to give us speed." he called, turning to Grippen.
"I hope you're ready for evasive maneuvers." he said, as an alert sounded from the shuttlebay, and the protective forcefield deactivated.
"Now!" he ordered, as the landing struts were disengaged and the shuttle was pulled out into space. The shuttle was reoriented back to the galactic plane, and right into the buoy field. The focus remained on the bigger threats and the shots that did come towards them were lanced with phasers, either from the shuttle, or from the hulls. As soon as they were 3/4 of the way through the field, Nevir hit the comms.
"Tekin to Discovery; break off your attack, we are-"
Suddenly static as the comm cut. The shuttle shuddered as it was hit and Nevir tried to assess systems. Except there was a code showing. A carrier wave with a hidden message. It was... familiar. The Captain put in an algorithm from his early years and the code was revealed.
Ja'lat.
Hrafn... he thought, and he tried to figure out why he was getting a code from his wife. But now was not the time, as a console in the back suddenly sparked, and the computer alerted them that lifesupport was failing. "Patch that system! Try to restore it!" he shouted, but the system was proving itself to not be repairable for an unknown reason. He returned to the code and was about to reply when another message appeared.
Shields. Transport.
"We're abandoning the shuttle, drop the shields. Prepare for transport." he stated, tapping the control again for Discovery.
"Tekin to Discovery, we have made contact with someone on the station. We are beaming over due to life support failure. Tekin out."
Within a few moments, all of them started to transport, and then.... blackness.
