=/\=Understood Engineering, give us whatever you can and have
someone report to the separation area.=/\= John replied not
realising the Engineer had already ordered his people into
position.
He turned to face Master Chief Brown and nodded, the man made a
good point as always, Anderson had always put a lot of trust in
Brown's advice or even criticism at times. "Agreed, but I think
the separation is our only chance of survival." Anderson wasn't
sure if he actually believed they had a chance, but there was
always room for hope. "Some shields might just put the odds in
our favour and an impulse burst might get us clear of the
immediate battle area."
The Commander looked back at the helm console. "I suppose I can
pilot what's left of the ship." He said thinking of another
thing that could happen. =/\=Engineering how stable is the
core?=/\=

bridge over the open comm line, when he heard Ensign Rey sat
about the ship spinning he immediately knew she was right and
the life boats wouldn't have a chance, saucer seperation would
need to be timed correctly but first the issue of drive needing
a fix =/\= I can't guarantee this sir but I would say I can get
some power to the thrusters and we have about a three minute
burn left in the Impulse engines =/\=.

guidance, "Nolan, Jackson and Lincoln I want you three to get up
to the release room and stand by for orders to initiate
seperation". Yet again he wiped the blood away from his eyes and
called over the Bolian engineer "Give me a hand here I want the
thrusters to give us everything they have got left".

Jasmine had been listening to the other reports while looking at
the debris, hoping to find something of use.
"Commander, there is a route out of the debris and away from the
planet, but everything would have to be exact or the damage
could be catastrophic..." Jasmine paused and evaluated the
information that was piling up on the console, while also making
sure that what she was about to say was correct, rather than
putting everyone in more danger than they already were.
=/\=Engineering, we need thrusters back in exactly twenty two
seconds.=/\= Turning back to the Commander she said "If you turn
when I say to turn, then this should be a more or less smooth
ride."

"Ok Ensign, send me the projected course and let's see how we
do." John replied. "We'd better get people to the saucer
section."
While waiting for the course from the Ensign, Anderson tapped
the intercom and made the call.
=/\=All hands this is the bridge, began evacuation to the saucer
section.=/\=

He turned and looked to the surviving engineers "Ok people let's
get out of here and up to the saucer, any wounded who can't
walk, the ones who can need to help".
He tapped his comm badge once more "Grix to Ops, I'm
transferring control to the bridge, you have the engines until I
get there or we are clear=/\= With that he took a look around
engineering and dived under the doors as they closed and sealed
the engine room off.

=/\=Acknowledged Engineering, stand by.=/\=
John looked down at the console as the thruster control lights
came on, he looked across to Ensign Rey and spoke. "I could use
that route about now Ensign."
Anderson didn't need to wait for stabilising the ship, the Essex
was in a roll to port and that necessitated activating the port
ventral thrusters. The ship shuddered again, this time it was
because of its protesting the movement. The metallic groaning
made its presence known once again. "Please hold together." He
said out loud, not caring about the apprehension in his voice,
he was only human at the end of the day.

"Sending them now Sir." She said then tapping the button as she
said it, then continuing, "There is little to no leeway with the
route, so be careful."
=/\=Engineering, I'll let you know when to release the clamps,
so be waiting. There won't be time to think about it.=/\= She

John looked down at the Tatical Station looking at what was left
of the Internal Sensors he was checking to make sure all the
personal have evacuated.
"Everyone except Engineers have now Evacuated to the Saucer once
we get conformation we can blow this Popsicle stand; on external
Sensors by luck were no were near any active orbital Stations
for now but if that changes I try to to get some sheilds if I do
we would be only able to stand three hit's at most" Finished

As he ran along the corridor with his tool box in hand,
Christian reached up and tapped his comm badge =/\= I have a
team standing by and I will be there in about ten seconds =/\=
with that he made a note to speak to the Ops officer if they got
out of this alive, her thoughts and ideas in this situation had
made him realise that she was some one he could work alongside.
As he ran into the release area Christian was relieved to see
that everything was prepared for the seperation "Ok on the order
from Ops we unlock immediately" he called to the team as he
sealed them in to the room on the Saucer side of the release.

"Right." Anderson replied seeing the projected route light up on
his screen, it was quite a route at that and as the Ensign
stated no room for error.

John nodded to his friend the Master Chief. "Do what you can, if
possible I want you to blast the jettisoned section of ship.
Don't really want it to fall onto civilians."
The helm console beeped and indicated the course of the ship was
steady, applying the aft thrusters began a sluggish forward
movement. "Ok Ensign, now would be a good time to release our
dead weight."

John nodded then entered commands with into the Tactical Station
trying to setup what he could.
"Sadly our Phaser array dos'nt have the power but I can set what
Torpedoes that are left in the launchers to self destruct which
will obliterate the old section" Finished Brown
