“Two Krakens left, sir. We can’t stop them.” Commander Chou paused, and then his head tipped forward. “They are on the dorsal hull.” Chou stepped away from the holostage and went to the command deck arms locker. He pulled the doors open. The locker held a sidearm for every command deck officer, but as the command deck was currently undermanned, there were several spare pistols. Lieutenant Chou tucked one in the waistband at the small of his back band and one in front. He took another and carried it to Pretorius at the holostage, handing it over, handle first.

“I’ll command the battalion from here, Captain.” Cruz unclipped the holsters of his own sidearms, one on each hip and one under his left arm.

Pretorius dropped his pistol on the holostage in front of him. “Give me an internal display,” he said. The holostage flickered from the external image to one of the Scorpio, all its corridors mapped out by a web of green holographic light. All the ship’s personnel were represented by small blinking specks. The two points where the Chitins were cutting through the hull appeared as dark spots.

Pretorius recognized the spots where the Chitins were entering. They were the thinnest sections of hull covering non-essential areas. One was the main mess, the other a hangar recently given over to the maintenance department. “Send Marines to those locations, Major. And send a detachment to protect my drive room.”
