Remnants and Fallout

"Ling-Ling, we have the command center"

Ling sighed and exhaled in relief.

"Glory be to Katz, you finally frecking done it. Now would you be so kind as to close the secondary blast doors! We're in main engineering now taking heavy fire. It seems the Alliance are particularly concerned with regaining Engine control."

Ling and the six men with him walked into the main hub in Engineering and saw the main reactor. The secondary blast doors sealed behind them.

"Excellent Rhade. We'll try and bring main propulsion under our control. Now, that is a sight."

Ling heard the explosions and machine gun fire behind him as his men were trying to hold back the last of the Alliance soldiers. He looked at one of the men, the recruit still had some explosives.

"You, place charges at those two shafts into the reactor."

Ling's men gazed at him in horror.

"We risk failure if we do not have a backup plan. There is now no relief force able to meet us, if we can't have the Hispania - Then no-one will and we rid the Galaxy of the disgusting Outcast's and Corsairs. The Coalition will live on! Holmes - you speak Spanish, get me all the ships propulsion systems under our control now. Prepare the uplink to the Resurgency."

With his orders issued, Ling turned to plug the hole that the men had left in their perimeter defense and he opened fire once more.
