Waking the Avalon - Part 4
Five Days Ago = Engineering Section = SS Renaissance
McEntire scrambled across the catwalk blindly, struggling to breathe through
the smoke. "Hang on," He called out. "I'm coming."
Lt. Shannon Phelps clung to the edge sobbing, praying her strength would
hold as the metal beneath her fingertips heated quickly. "Hurry…Mac…please….
The Renaissance continued to superheat around them. Mac lunged forward,
reaching out desperately as Phelps lost her hold, plunging to the deck below.
"Shan!" he cried. "DAMMIT!" He blinked back angry tears as he stumbled
toward the last escape pod. Assisting the last few stragglers into the pod, he
closed the hatch and pushed the button, ejecting the pod from the dying ship.
The klaxon continued to sound. The ships automated call repeated again and
again, "All hands…abandon ship…this is not a drill. All hands…abandon ship…
this is not a drill…"
Watching from the viewport, Mac watched with a sort of sick satisfaction as
the Breen that had attacked them was blown from the sky and the stolen
runabout seemed to sink into the planets atmosphere, like an old Earth water
ship
slowly swallowed by the sea. The feeling was short lived, however, as his ship
– his home – exploded into a ball of fire and gas, lighting up the vacuum
of space.
The Renaissance was lost.
